Street is the representative of the school board and is directly responsible to them. By means of a peculiar aptitude for management he looks after the details of the various 'matters decided by the board.

His understanding of the everyday problems makes him fully able to cope with them and solve them satisfactorily. In the school building his under- standing of human nature enables him to deal successfully with the many and varied types of people to be found in a group collected from near- ly every home in the city. We members of the senior class of William Chrisman High School are especially grateful for and appreciative of his col- operation and endless kindnesses.. In the office Miss Chastain capably handles all the correspondence and other matters Which are her responsibility.

It is the duty of the secre- tary, John Hinde, employed by the board, to take care of the records of the matters transacted by the board. EUGENE B. STREET, Sz1pw'i1ztc11dc11l Mr. Duncan was one of the best loved and respected members of our school system. His humor, kindness, and understanding made all the fac- ulty, students, and those in his charge feel that he was indeed one of their truest friends. Pugz' 1 8 William Chrisman High School To the student William Chrisman repre- sents an ideal, an ideal to be maintained, an ideal to be, if possible, improved. All Chrismanites are eager to do their part in upholding the honor of their high school. To the townspeople, our parents, Wil- liam Chrisman is a goal that has been reached. Into it they poured all their love of their children, of their city, and of each other. To our faculty Chrisman is the river upon which they have cast the bread, the fruit of their education and experience. We sincerely hope that it may be returned and increased tenfold. Mn. I.

His avid interest, worth- while original ideas, constructive and helpful criti- cisms, which are given and received in good faith, make him one of the most desired members of the school organizations. The broad and practical knowledge in many fields makes him a most interesting and Welcome member of every class in every subject in the cirriculum. The friendly and interested attitude toward every student and a knowledge of their values and characteristics which he possesses has done much toward increasing the spirit of the school. In the oflice he and Miss Ellen Nelson, his secre- tary, carefully check attendance and attend to other similar matters which arise in the course of every school day. Their cheerfulness and patience has been most encouraging through the entire year. Their vital interest in all things pertaining to the school life will ever be an inspiration to us.

Since the importance of the study Of English is recognized by those in charge of the decision of necessary subjects, at least three years of English are specified. Miss Ellen Singleton, Miss Emina Hill, Miss Nora Ames, Miss Mabel Potter, Miss Louise MacDonald, Miss Esther Irene Layton, Miss Harriet Northern, and Mr. Dale Pigg conduct f!g'ricuItzn'e Social Scimzms History Classes in subject' The course of study in sophomore English comprises both literature and rhetoric. In this course the student is introduced more fully to the most delightful and interesting authors in the English language. The most intent purpose is to implant firmly in the consciousness of the students the proper use of words and the construction of interesting, effective sentences. In the junior English course literature is emphasized more intensely than the study of rules governing composition and sentence structureg in this course the student is given to prove his knowledge and understanding of such rules in writing original essays and themes. The masterpieces of American authors are studied, as well as the conditions which influenced the philosophy of those men and women. The course in senior English is purely elective. Probably one half of the students who this year signed for a course in English Literature did so because of the ability and charm of the young lady who teaches this class, Miss Harriet Northern. The classes this year have traced the development of the literature of the English lan- guage from its earliest known beginning, the tale of the great hero, Beowulf, to the present day, through the early ages, which are interesting principally because of their antiquity, one of the most notable exceptions to that statement is Chaucer's Canterbury Tales , through the Elizabethan age with the greatest literary genius of all time, William Shakespeare, watching the change of characteristic from emotion to intellect and back again to emotion, almost as if it were the pendulum of a great clock which ticks away eternities. From the study of the greatest thoughts of the greatest men of all time and a comprehensive study of the rules they have laid down, it seems quite fitting that we should next con- PLANE Geomiirm' CLASS.

D. C. ELLIOTT Mn. Aucusi' Emxiiua In men affected greatly the history Cmmem, PWM Chemmw of the world. The underlying purpose for the presentation of these subjects is to show that cer- tain causes always have certain effects and that certain effects are always the result of cer- tain causes. Instructors in this field are Mr. John Blackmore, Mrs. Asenath Schroeder, Miss Mary Alice Gibbons, Miss Mary Lucas, Miss Nora Ames, Miss Louise McDonald, and Mr. Joseph Biter. In ancient and medieval history are studied the rise and fall of the ancient empires as shown by the ruins of the symbols of their civilization. i Since few of the pupils have bf-H privileged to travel, it would in many instances be somewhat diflicult to present the material in an interesting manner g we wish to take this opportunity to thank the instructors for their very successful attempts in this regard. In the study of modern history the four great periods are the Renaissance, beginning the Modern Age, the Age of Autocracy, the Great Revolutions against its despotism and in- humanity, through chaos into the present Age of Democracy. Whether or not it was mad- ness to cherish those hopes which sprang into the hearts of men at the end of the Great Revolutions the next months will definitely reveal. Never before has democracy declined so much and so quickly. The final history course offered is American history, in which study the rapid develop- ment of the American nation is traced from the time that Columbus first set foot upon the American continent and claimed it in the name of the King of Spain, to the political and industrial struggles of the present time. The cause of all trouble in the past and present in this country has been lack of cooperation, and the periods of greatest progress have been characterized by the presence of this elusive yet essential state of sympathy l5io1.oGY.CLAss, Room 216 Pug! 21 between the high and IOW- The succession of events in this study seems much swifter and momentous than in any Other- To secure and possess a broad knowledge of the history of our native land should be of interest to every American.

Another of the subjects in which we should be very much interested is sociology. In a study of this subject we are made to realize our responsibilities and duties as members of society. The civics department is one in which numerous situations and questions arise which in- crease the ability to think for oneself. This course is essential 'VIR CHARLES I-IUHN Miss Esrx-ian IRENE LAYTQN Miss MARY Lucas A U Social Sczeizces, Hygiene Englixh , Social SCIVCVZCEJ to 9VeI'y 3,1'I1b1'f,10U,S Student. The study of economics at this particular period of our history would be a worthwhile, indeed, a vitally necessary subject to know, not to solve the present financial status by means of anew and previously unheard of method or experiment, but because -it is reasonable to believe that if the people generally knew more about the laws of production and distribution, labor and capital, man and machine, everyone would be better fitted individually to do his part to relieve the present stress g and if individually prepared, we could present an unbroken, national front in our war against depression. This year there was such a large demand for entry into the physics classes that instead of the usual single teacher, Mr. D. C. Elliott, two teachers conducted classes in this subject. Mr. Earl Page this year added the instruction of physics to his already broad budget of work in William Chrisman High School. Physics is an essential part ofthe education part of a well-rounded person. The purpose of teaching physics in high school is to present elementary physics in such a way as to stim- ulate the pupil to do some thinking on his own account about the 'how's' and 'why's' of the physical world in which he lives. The metric system of the measurement of volumes, weights, and lengths is thoroughly learned and frequently applied. The fundamentals of light, sound, heat, and mechanics are explained and studied. A course such as this makes it possible for the student to better understand the principles and motives of the machines which he daily uses for comfort or convenience, to more fully appreciate the phenomena among which he has been settled, and through a fuller understanding of the influ- ences which govern our lives, live a happier and better life.

When we study the lives of the great men and women who have written world history through their achievements in the field of chemistry, we are made to realize the possibilities of that animal called man and are imbued with new hope and inspiration in respect to our own capacities. One of the greatest benents of a course in chemistry, if not the greatest, is the associa- tion with an instructor and friend such as Mr. Ehmke. His interest in the subject which he has chosen to teach, his understanding of the characters and capacities of the pupils under his direction, is in itself an education in human nature. We are especially grateful to him for the efforts he has exerted in our behalf. Biology is a scientific study which is composed of two interesting subjects, botany and Zoology. One semester is devoted to each of these divisions. The classes are instructed by two very capable teachers, Mr. Nebgen and Mr. Ehmke. Zoology is a science which treats of the natural history, physiology, classification, distri- bution, and habits of animals, botany is a similar study of plants. Although this course is at times a bit distasteful to the more sensitive student, the generous supply of necessary and practical knowledge gained far outweighs any momentarily unpleasant effects. Miss Bryant, Mr. Charles Huhn, I'II51'0IiX'CL,ySS,ROOA1 208 A and Mr. Ray French instruct classes in hygiene, which is a study of the proper care of the human body. This subject is required by the state for graduation. The foreign languages are courses which greatly attract many students. The Independence high schools offer Page 2 3 a comparatively Wide range of foreign languages, four years of Latin, three years of Spanish, and two years of French. During the past several years no first year Latin class has been held at Chrisman, any sopho- mores or juniors desiring to study Latin receive this instruc- tion in Junior High School under the direction of Miss Virginia Mn.

Scicncrs '5p mih' Englljh Compton' MISS Ellen Slngleton instructs the classes in their second, third, and fourth year Work in this study. The first year is devoted principally to the study of syntax and its application in the translation of familiar fables and myths. In the second year the feature of the course is the translation of Caesear's record of the Gallic Wars. This study is supplemented and varied by a review of syntax and the translation of the tale of the Argonauts from the original Latin. Since there are a limited number of pupils who take third and fourth year Latin, these pupils are in- structed in one class, the presentation of Cicero and Vergil is alternated every other year. Miss MABEL POTTER Miss Nm E. Simms The third year is a study of Cicero's Well-known Engl A Mf hf 'f'f'ff Aff orations against Catiline and his plea for the Greek- born poet, Archias. During the class period this year, was read Paul Anderson's novel, A Slave of Cataline, which vividly describes the actions of the leader of the conspiracy and the succession of events which resulted in his defeat. The Aeneid of Vergil is the subject studied in the fourth year, and it differs from the ordinary course in Latin in that it is Written in poetry. Syntax and the translation of English into Latin are other constituents of the course. Miss Mary Alice Gibbons is the instructor of French. The first year of this course is offered in J unior High -School. There the principles of grammar are laid down. In the sec- ond year a tale of travel and adventure in France is translated, and the grammar and rhetoric is demonstrated and employed in this Way. A number of interesting projects Were completed this year. Subjects for these projects ranged from original cross Word puzzles to notebooks of French clippings. Mr. Pigg's Spanish classes are among the most enthusiastic groups in high school. All three years are offered at the Senior High School. The first year is almost entirely 'a study of construction. The second and third years are a review of syntax and the study of the works of Spanish authors. This class and its instructor have been highly instrumental in securing for our library a number of interesting Spanish references. The art course presented to students of William Chrisman is offered for both practical and cultural purposes. The classes are under the excellent direction of Miss Nell E. Samp- son, to whom this book is dedicated. The Students are taught 3,1-13 app!-e- CLAss IN PUBLIC SPEAKING, Room 203 ciation in order that they may express this realization of true beauty in their homes, their clothes, and other per- sonal possessions, and thereby add to the cultural background and beauty of the community.

Soda! 556,165 Lrzzin Con The mathematics department is capably instructed by Miss Janie Chiles, Miss Benfield, and Mr, Earl Page. The branches of which this course consists are Algebra III and IV, plane geometry, advanced arith- metic, and trigonometry. Mathematics holds an im- portant position in the world of business and profes- sions. Its greatest benefit to the student, besides pre- paring the student in this field, is to teach him to con- centrate, to think and reason for himself. Closely allied to this course is the commercial de- partment with its requirement for mathematical pre- cision in the branches of shorthand, typewriting, and bookkeeping. Miss Ada Fallon teaches shorthand and typing II, Miss Alberta Moore and Miss Courtney and Mr. Athey teach bookkeeping. Beside making accurate and neat copies of the business letters and legal forms in their text, the students in this department have served the school by doing much outside work. The boys of William Chrisman who are interested in the industrial arts ind that to choose between Manual Training and Mechanical Drawing is very diflicult. In Mr. Wininger's classes in manual training, the boy who was a Uwhittlin' whiz in his grade school days has found much to increase his interest and ability, and the boy who has not previously shown any particular talent in this occupation or recreation fdepending upon the circumstancesj is so instructed that any latent talent in this regard has been drawn forth and polished. The members of these several classes have done much toward the upkeep of our school. Mr. Morris, the supervisor of the mechanical drawing department, is especially well qualified to teach this subject. By training, bent of nature, and years of experience in teach- ing young people this particular subject, he is well fitted for his position. The course as pre- sented by Mr. Morris is particularly adapted to the teaching of the fundamentals of architec- ture. Mr. George Berkemeier teaches the classes in agriculture. The knowledge imparted in this class is designed to give to those boys and girls interested in farming a basic knowledge of the varying soil, climate, and crop conditions. Mr. Berkemeier has secured for the class the most accurate and concise state- IJEIJAIQTAIENT' OF COAIAIEliCE Room ment of the egects and Causes of these conditions by getting government bul- letins.

The quiet, unassuming dignity with which our teachers approach and achieve their goals has Caused them to be Well-known and fitting representatives of the ideals and purposes of William Chrisman High School. The pupils have found them to be classic examples of what is expected to be found in the ideal teacher. The students of William Chrisman have been most fortunate in being instructed by such capable teachers. Through the constructive criticism of our teachers we are able to develop our talents no matter how meager those talents are at the beginning By means of sym pathetic understanding and friendly counsel the Instructors have sought to 111S'C1l1 111 the H1111dS of the students the capacity to Intelligently promote their own interests and the welfare of the school and of the community as a whole This has been accomplished because the teachers have at all times dealt with then pupils as 1nd1V1dua1S who are Of Vltal Importance to the teacher s own scheme of l1fe rather than as mere cogs In a complex mechanism The teachers have done as much as lies In their power to give to their pupils a broader and more liberal education Not only do they teach the fundamental subjects In absolute and cultural sciences but also they endeavor to enrich the life of the Indlvidual student and to make h1m a more Intelligent and useful per on and to give him a more helpful Idea of the meaning and worth of l1fe The teachers attempt to train us to more capably manage the iinancial practical and business responsibilities In order that we mlght keep up stable and gulsh the gifted pupils and by general honors give them a wider opportunity for the develop ment of their particular abilities nd leadersh1p In so doing they are enabled to advise the student what type of college course to take since the advantages of professional tralnlng for those who contemplate going into higher fields for their l1fe work are becoming more and more apparent which school would be best su1ted to his or her personal capacities and to assist them Indlvidually to select the proper surroundings and environment They help the pup1l broaden his view so that he may understand the social and economic trends which govern the success of his proJects as well as the mental and physical requirements which determine his fitness LIBRARY Through the association with the teachers the students develop a greater Initiative a deeper resourcefulness and a finer more accurate Judgment Page 26 'T constructive work in our post-high school days.

TQRAINING SHOP Therefore, through personal contacts the teachers endeavor to help the student to reach a solution of his individual difficulties in the class room and outside of it. The success of the numerous and Worthy societies and clubs in William Chrisman High School is due mostly to the sincere and ulntiring efforts of the sponsors, who have ably filled their capacity of both teachers and friends in promoting the various activities of the organizations. The avid interest of the teachers in the achievements of their charges has served to foster exhibitions throughout the state in various fields of endeavor. Our most outstanding accom- plishments are due to the clear thinking, keen and incisive judgment of our sponsors. It is the aim of our high school to produce a Well-balanced life and to lead the students to the realization of the need of such a life. The pleasure gained from this may be beneficial to oneself as Well as to others. It may be acquired through careful preparation, through study, and above all, through actual doing. In spite of the added inconvenience and almost insurmountable handicap to a smooth, uninterrupted routine, which the newly adopted attendance system has made almost impos- sible, the teachers have been most patient and kind. Through the desire to achieve complete harmony in the new plan, they are endeavoring to meetvthe special educational needs of the time, which are closely related to present day problems. The striking changes which have been advocated in our economic life are of such a nature that they will affect every com- munity and homeg hence through the guidance of our teachers We are enabled to meet this immediate need. Even with these difiiculties, this year has been unusually successful, and this success has been primarily due to the unending efforts of our instructors. The teachers have given us an inspiration through their teaching and example, and through this inspiration we are given a determination. A source of never failing interest to the teacher is the theories, methods, and common sense which have been combined to evolve thee best system of education-clear-sighted and right-thinking. The realization of these obligations will better fit us to be useful citizens and an asset to our t community. Fnoxr PIALL The teachers can not over em- ' phasize the importance of thinking clearly and holding to the best things that have come out of our past ex- periences. Page 27 HARLAN SOULE FRANCES MARIE HALL ' BILL HARDEI1 ALICE WOODSIDE l Student Body Officers Each Friday at one o'clock an assembly is held in the auditorium. It is optional with the students Whether or 11015 they attend. This meeting once a week does much to promote the good fellowship which is found at William Chrisman. The programs are arranged by the student president, Working in conjunction with Mr. Hanthorn and a faculty com- mittee. Talented pupils are encouraged by givingithem an opportunity to take a part in at least one program. Several guest speakers have given interesting and instructive lecturesg some guest artists, musically gifted, presented enjoyable enter- tainments. An official record of each assembly program is Iiled as a school record. After each assembly an account of it appears in The Independence Examiner. These reports are the responsibility of the student body secretary. At the end of each semester, nominations for the new oiiicers are held in assembly. A pre- liminary election is held, and the two highest names are candidates for the office. An enthu- siastic campaign ensues, the climax coming on Friday, when campaign speeches are made shortly before the final vote is taken. To be elected is the greatest honor that any student may have bestowed upon him. ' The editor-in-chief of the Envoy is also chosen in the same way. Those elected this year to head the student body have had resourcefulness and ability and have been capable and efficient leaders. A A Junior Officers The junior oflicers and sponsors are the ones who select the committees for the annual prom. These are elected for their merit and ability. The first semester introduced a very capable and enthusiastic president, Joe Bailey Gib- son. He is a G. S. B. and a member of the Gleam staff. Joe Bailey has taken an active part in many assembly programs and is one of whom great things are expected next year. The secretary of this semester was industrious Virginia Tanner. She is an As You Like It, and a member of the Envoy staff. , At the opening of the second. semester, the juniors looked to new leaders foy their class. They chose Ruby Crockett, a very efiicient girl, for their president. Ruby was Well qualified for this office, having been president of the sophomore class. She is a worthy Shakespearean and a member of the Envoy staff, For their secretary they selected a girl of many accomplishments, Dorothy Fairbanks a Shakespearean, an oifi- ' CCI' of the FI'81'lCll.

They lived up to the excellent reputa- tion set by oflicers of former classes-energetic efiiciency. The first semester Bob Markey was elected president, with Alice Woodside as secretary. Bob had been one of the most ardent workers when the Pep Club was organized. He also held office as president of the Athenians. Alice, a Shake- spearean, has been of much assistance to Miss Smith by her ability to accompany the quartets and soloists. In recognition of Alice's successful endeavors, she was elected student body secretary for the last half of the year. and Jo Lee Graham were elected president and secretary, respectively. John is a G. S. B. and has always taken an active part in pre-election campaigns, making posters for all the candidates. Jo Lee, a Shakespearean, was for two years one of the yell leaders, hence a Pep Club member. She had a minor part in the senior play. The duties of these class oflicers are to preside over the senior meetings and to be the committee which selects the class rings and announcements. The senior play ticket sale, which was in charge of the class officers, was very efiiciently managed. Following the student body election, the president and the secretary of each class assists in counting the votes. Sophomore Officers Although the sophomores have previously been looked upon as green horns, they have, nevertheless, proved themselves worthy this year, first, by their excellent choice of class ofiicers. Christy Knox was a very industrious and capable president for the first semester. Christy is a member of the G. S. B. Literary Society and previously held the office of president of the freshman class. An eliicient secretary was found in Nadine Barnard, who is an ardent worker in the Shakespearean Literary Society and is well known by her excellent grades. The second semester again introduced an outstanding group of ofiicers. Tne honor of president was bestowed upon Fred Springer. Fred has made excellent grades and ably held this oflice. The secretary for this semester was Frances Newcomer.

GEOIKGE IENKINSUN BRUCE LOWER REX JONES HARRY MITCHELL EIICENE LANE VERNE PARISH PAIILINE LOUDERBACK LEO SACKETT Page 41 Senior History In -September of 1931, three hundred and fifty-one pupils began their freshman year in Junior High School. This class gave its talent in helping present the three annual Junior High plays. Their OWU D19-Y, Hchifltz Cot- tage, was presented to a large and interested audience. Rather bashfully the class started their sophomore year in high school. By the helpful guidance of the older pupils and the faculty, theysoon found a place. Many of the students were taken on the Envoy staff. After the societies and clubs had their elections, these sophomores began taking up their duties there as ones accustomed to them. ' This was the last year for study hall. Ask any one of the seniors of 1935 what study hall was like. He would undoubtedly tell you of some funny experiences of his. In concluding he would say, Those were the good old days. I wouldn't have missed a year of study hall for anything, however, I like the new system. As sophomores the class presented a play with no ad- mission price because of the depression. The play, Too Many Parents, was a success, being greatly enjoyed by a large audience both nights. The following boys made the football team as sopho- mores: Dick Agee, Victor Bowles, Eddie Bracht, James Mc- Broome, Ben Moore, Dan Newman, William Raley, and Frank Brauninger. It is interesting to notice that some of the outstanding players of this year made a good beginning the year they entered Chrisman. Only one boy of the class lettered in basketball his soph- omore year. This honor went to Eddie Bracht. As juniors the class again displayed remarkable ability in leadership and scholarship. ' The annual play, Meet Uncle Sally, was an outstand- ing comedy. Again the class play was given two nights to full houses. Alice Woodside, Billy Callahan, Clark Blocher, and Le- Roy Braby proved their musical ability in their roles in the operetta. In the Warrensburg meet, Muriel Loosemore shared honors with her partner in placing first in sewing. Emil Oeser and his partner were second in the cooking contest. The one-act play, The Weak Spot, had one junior in the cast-Bill Callahan. These contestants brought due honors to themselves, their class, and their school. Page 42 The juniors again proved their ability by winning many h0f101'S ill Public Speaking at the Marshall National Forensic Contest. Marjorie Moore, by winning first place, was able to enter the national contest at Topeka. Frank Johnson and Frances Marie Hall also upheld the honor of the class in their public speaking. The class contributed its ability to the Envoy and Cleam staffs. The Gleam staff of 1934 was fortunate in having two capable junior workers on the staff. Vivian Barton is accredited with designing the subdivision pages and the calendar. Clark Blocher helped with the carving of many of the linoleum blocks. Nelle Davis, a capable student, filled the position of editor-in-chief of the Envoy. She was the first junior to have filled this important oflice. The junior-senior reception was one of the outstanding accomplishments of that year. The committee worked to- gether to give for the seniors a prom that would always live in their memories. A new committee, the reception committee, was created to receive the guests and to help entertain. This group added much to the success of the prom. Mr. Blackmore and Mr. Berkemeier deserve much credit for their cooperation in the planning of the reception. Twelve juniors were elected to the National Honor Society: Frances Marie Hall, Florence Sehrt, Marjorie Moore, Ben Moore, Harlan Soule, Josephine Gregg, Charles Reese, Nelle Davis, Emil Oeser, Dudley Bailey, Harry Dooley, and Becky Schroeder. The senior play was Hot Copy -a newspaper story in three acts. The comedy attracted a large audience which thoroughly enjoyed the performance. Mr. Earl Page and Miss Janie Chiles deserve much credit for the untiring efforts they gave in directing this class activity. The debate teams this year were Frances Marie Hall and Marjorie Moore, and Harry Dooley and Charles Reese. The teams have had an outstanding year, and everywhere they have debated they have made a good 112-The for Ch1'iS- man. Jo Lee Graham represented Chrisman at Marshall in original oratoryg Frank Johnson represented Chrisman in extemporaneous speaking at Topeka, Marshall, and War- rensburg. ' With a class somewhat smaller than the one that started four years ago, the senior class of one thousand nine hun- d1'ed and thirty-five are ending their high SCh00l CEIFGSF- IH future years the members of this class hope to Win SHCCSSS for themselves and bring credit to William Chrisman.

During their freshman year, which was spent at Junior High, the members of this class presented a cleverly worked out play, I Will! I Won't! In this play Maxine Willis played a dual role. They also took active parts in the Latin Club, the Spanish Club, the 'Stamp Club, the Lincoln Forum, the Dramatic Club, the A. C. L., and the A. O. O. A. clubs. The Dramatic Club presented a play, The -House of the Flashing Light! This was under the direction of Earl Page and Otis Lancaster. The A. C. L. and A. O. O. A. clubs combined their talents and offered a very interesting play, The Blue Bag. This was directed by Miss Hill and Miss Deacon. Four members of the class, Emma Jeanne Etzenhouser, Virginia Tanner, Robert Robins, and Joe Bailey Gibson, deserve much credit for their work on the Gleam B staff. Members of the William Penn Club published the Echo. Eleanor Fairbanks was president of the club the first semes- ter, and Ruby .Crockett was president the last semester. The Echo was entered in the Missouri Interscholastic Press Association's contest at Warrensburg and was awarded Superior Rating as a mimeographed junior high school paper. The bound edition of the Echo, issued as an annual, won first prize as the annual showing the best handicraft. It placed first in the division for junior high annuals and second in the mimeographed annual division. The latter included both junior and senior high schools. Carson Rowe and Elnora Short ranked high in the Latin contest held in Warrensburg. As sophomores, fifteen members of the class were chosen to serve on the Envoy staff. An interesting assem- bly program was given by the class. The sophomore play, The Man in the Green Shirt, a comedy, proved to 'be a great success. The sophomores who paid their dues were given three free tickets. Ninety-iive per cent of the dues were collected. In the spring the play was presented in Kansas City before a club of the employees of the South- western Bell Telephone Company. Carson Rowe represented the Latin department in the Warrensburg contest. The sophomore class officers were: First semester, president, Ruby Crockett, vice president, Joe Bailey Gib- song secretary, Myrelle McClain, treasurer, Kathalea Sprague, reporter, Anna Frances Etzenhouser. Second Page 48 semester, president, Fred Stockdale, vice president, Roger T. Sermon, secretary, Dorothy Fairbanks, treasurers, Tom Hinde and Eleanor Fairbanksg reporter, Virginia Tanner. During the past year the juniors have upheld their good record in various activities. The junior play, The Whole Town's Talking, was Well received by the public, and was one of the most inter- esting plays presented this year. A unique feature was the casting of the Fairbanks twins, Dorothy and Eleanor, for the same part. They interchanged in the part throughout the play and kept the audience guessing as to which girl was on the stage. The juniors were well represented in athletics. Jack Ettinger, Forrest McDaniels, Gilbert Daughtrey, and James Chrestensen were on the first team in both football and basketball. Russell Hughes and Leslie Price were other juniors on the football team. Lewis Hanthorn, Rus- sell Logan, and Leslie Price are expected to develop into first team material in basketball next year. This class is also well represented on the track team by Forrest Mc- Daniels, Jack Ettinger, and James Chrestensen. During the year the juniors presented two interesting assembly programs. On October 19, the program consisted of a cornet solo by David Allen, a reading by Maxine Budd, a reading by Eleanor Fairbanks, a piano solo by Joyce Mal- lette, a vocal solo by Myrelle McClain, a vocal solo by Becky Burrus, and a banjo solo by Fred Stockdale. ' Anna Belle Soule, a junior, was editor-in-chief of the Envoy the second semester. Myrelle McClain, Loretta Sutton, Melba Moorman, David Allen, and Emma Jeanne Etzenhouser participated in the state music contest at Columbia. Loretta Sutton, Melba Moorman, and Myrelle McClain are members of the girls' quartet. Elmer Pearson and Myrelle McClain had the leading parts in the operetta, The Tea House of Sing Lo. The most outstanding social event of the year for the juniors is the junior-senior reception. This was held May 15. The large crowd that attended spent a most enjoyable evening. All teachers were invited, and each had the priv- ilege of bringing one guest. Joe Bailey Gibson was the host, and Ruby Crockett was hostess. Fred Stockdale acted as master of ceremonies. As a result of the hard work of the committees in charge, a new and unique plan of decoration was successfully carried out. lhigf 49 5, . L-it -7 YN -4952 4?

The goal set by previous seniors is a high one, but by perseverance and hard work, it can be attained. In their freshman year the present sophomores partici- pated in many activities. The class presented, instead of the usual three-act play, three one-act plays, Flashback, The Little Prison, and Elmer. Mr. Blevins Davis, after viewing the plays, asked to have The Little Prison and Elmer given at William Chrisman. The A. O. O. A. and A. C. L. clubs combined their talents to present their annual play, Engaged by Wednes- day. The Echo staff, including Frances Newcomer, Arch Moran, John Crandall, Marvel Mack, Margaret Mitchell, Barbara Hacker, Shirley Perdee, Ruth Riske, Donald Har- der, Nadine Barnard, Mary Lois Breuer, and John Paxton accomplished much during the year, and they were re- warded by the Echo's winning several awards at the M. I. P. A. meeting at Columbia, Missouri. The class oiiicers for the year were: President, Christy Knox, vice president, Junior Momyerg secretary, Nadine Barnard, treasurer, John Crandall. Several individuals won awards in various fields. John Crandall won first place in the district first year Latin con- test, Warrensburg. Marvin Hershey and Mamie Chewning were the winners of the annual W. C. T. U. essay contest. Violet Swenson and Dorothy Winegar tied for first place in the local W. C. T. U. poster contest. Each received a medal. In the state contest Dorothy Winegar won first place, and Violet Swenson won honorable mention. Louise Green won the contest sponsored by the Echo for the best Thanks- giving story and Mamie Chewning for the best Christmas story. The sophomores are commonly considered the Green- ies of William Chrisman, but they have hardly been idle this year, as the following go to prove. They presented a play, The Big Cheese, on December 14 and 15. The play was unique in that it had a double cast. Those holding positions on the Envoy staf are Frances Newcomer, Fletcher Copeland, Christy Knox, John Paxton, Vera,Knoepker. Many other sophomores are news writers for the paper. Donald Harder was Chrisman's representative in the oratorical contest sponsored by the American Legi0H- Przgr' 55 1 X ...... ? ii H ' 1, 'r 1 , sr -.

Each year approximately fifteen Def C9115 Of the graduating class may be taken into the society. At present the number of members of the Chrisman chapter is over three hundred. Each member is carefully selected on the basis of the four ideals for which the society stands: Character, scholarship, leadership, and service. The scholarship of the pupil is an essential factor. To be considered for the society, the student must make marks good enough to place him in the upper one third of his class. The leadership of the student is easily recog- nized in his school work as well as in his extra curricular activities. The service he renders to the faculty and to the school is seriously considered when the members are chosen. Five per cent of the class, which is of about two hundred and fifty members, was taken in during the junior year. This is a custom in the society chapter. The twelve members taken in were Dudley Bailey, Nelle Davis, Junior Dooley, Josephine Gregg, Frances Marie Hall, Ben Moore, Marjorie Moore, Emil Oeser, Charles Reese, Becky Schroeder, Florence Sehrt, and Harlan Soule. At the end of the senior year the remaining ten per cent, or twenty-five members, were taken in. These members were welcomed into the society at assembly by the older members, who opened envelopes containing two persons' names, whose they did not know. This fur- nished many surprises and genuine thrills, not only for the new members, but for the old members and all the audience as well. Each member was presented a rose, which he wore all day as a badge of honor. Robert Alexander, an old Chrismanite and Honor student, was the principal speaker on our program. Mr. Albert Brackenbury, also a former Honor Society member, sang two solos. The oiiicers of the society were elected at the end of the junior yearg they served all year. Charles Reese very capably took charge of meetings and of our assembly programs, ' Miss Mabel Potter has always been sponsor of our chapter. The members wish to extend their gratitude for her willing guidance.

The members of the organization are very eager to aid in the development and to be a vital part of the progress of the school. The work of the past year is viewed With the thrill of achievement that comes to those who are convinced that they have done their Work Well. The Mothers' Tea, an annual tribute to the mothers, was a real joy to all who took part. An interesting and original program, titled Mi1ady's Purse, was presented to the student body in the annual assembly. This pro- gram vvas repeated to an audience composed of Parent-Teacher Association members. A clever, two-act play, Behind That False Face, written and directed by Marjorie Moore, was the society's contribution to Hollywood-Night, sponsored by the Forum. The society is very proud of those of its members who have achieved especial honor. The society was especially appreciative of the fact t'iat in the second semester both candidates for student body secretary, Alice Woodside and Jo Lee Graham, were Shakespeareans. Miss Woodside also represented the school in extemporaneous speaking as Well as serving as accom- panist for the operetta, in which Myrelle McClain sang the leading roleg the Fairbanks twins, Dorothy and Eleanor, alternated in the corresponding role in the junior play. Marjorie Moore and Florence Sehrt became members of the National Honor -Society in the junior year, Frances Duncan, Marguerite Smith, Virginia Barnett, Juanita East, and Alice Wood- side, in their senior year. The society was very fortunate in securing Miss Alberta Moore as their sponsor this year. We Wish to congratulate her for her great facility in this capacity. Mrs. Asenath Schroeder was particularly helpful and a real inspiration to the members in her role of assist- ant sponsor. To them we wish to extend our deepest appreciation and affection.

Early in the school term the As You Like Its made their annual contribution to the Needle Work Guild. For several years it has been a custom for the club to contribute infants' clothing to this national organization. p As You Like It girls entered into the Christmas spirit by presenting a needy family With a basket of food. At one of the regular meetings Mrs. Dale Pigg entertained the society with two very interesting readings. At Christmas time the annual Christmas party was held at the home of Betty McKim. On St. Valentine's Day, an All Society Party was held in the boys' gymnasium. The As You Like Its participated in this social gathering. On March 27 the mothers of the As You Like Its were entertained at the annual Mothers' Tea. The program consisted of a piano solo by Emma Jeanne Etzenhouser, a vocal solo by Ruth Riske, and a reading by Kathalea Sprague. Frances Marie Hall gave the toast and Mrs. R.R. Redfield gave the response. Frances Marie Hall was very efficient as student body secretary for the first semester. She also has taken an active part in debating and has Won recognition as an excellent speaker. At the National Honor Society assembly, which was held on March 22, ngw mgmbeys Were taken into the organization. Seven As You' Like Its are members of the National Honor Society.

The Athenian Literary Society was organized in the year 1920. Mr. D. C. Elliott was its first sponsor. A constitution was drafted and adopted. The society soon attained a place of prominence in the school, which it has held since then. From the time of its organization, the society has had as its aim social and scholastic activites for its members and above all the most possible service to our school. Many of the student body presidents, as well as other important officers of the school, have been Athenians. Athenians have always had important places in the different departments and activities of the school, giving their time and talent in athletics, music, public speaking, Envoy work, or in the many school programs. Several of our faculty members have at one time been Athenians, while many other Athenians have become prominent in the business world. This year, through the kindness of Mr. Street and the cooperation of the School Board, the societies were given the use of the boys' gymnasium for a dance. This all-society party was the first in several years, and everyone who attended was very well pleased with its suc- cess. An assembly play was presented by the Athenians under the direction of their co-sponsor, Mr. Earl Page. The society also took part in Hollywood, an evening program presented to raise funds to pay the expenses of the debate team. Under the excellent sponorship of Mr. John Blackmore and Mr. Earl Page, the Athenian Literary Society has seen one of its best years. The friendly rivalry existing between the Athenians and the G. S. B.'s finds an outlet in athletic contests as well as in scholastic achievements. This year eight Athenians were elected to the National Honor Society. Many Athenians of past years have also received this great honor. The Athenian Lil39I'2f1'Y Society has 211W2lZVs endeavored to uphold the school's high ideals of scholarship and service, and will continue to do so in the years to come. The Athenian motto is P.ossumus quad nos posse Sctmu-Y'- We can because we know we can. Sponsors MR. IOHN BLACKMORE MR. EARL PAGE Page 61 Y i eorge S.

Bryant Literary Society was organized in 1919. Miss Margaret Phelps was the first sponsor as well as founder of the Society. The purpose of the Society is to Stim- ulate in the school a literary interest, and to afford literary education approached by the social angle. Members of the society held many high of-Hces of the school throughout the year. Some of the positions filled by G. S. B.'s are the student body P1'eSideHtS, class officers, and prom- inent positions on the Staffs of the Gleam and Envoy. The society was, as usual, well repre- sented on the football, basketball, and track teams. Two of the members of the society, Charles Reese and Junior Dooley, comprised the b0yS' debating team, which enjoyed a suc- cessful season. Consisting of a group of musical numbers, the assembly program presented by the society in the first semester, portrayed another of the S0ciety'S m91'f1b91'S' 'C2i0H'CS- MSJHY of the society members aided in the orchestra, the operetta, and Other music activities. At Christmas, the G. S. B.'s adopted a needy family, as is their custom. Each of the members of the club contributing, a basket was arranged, and sent to bring joy on Christmas Day to the unfortunate family. A history of the society is kept by the historian. Taken largely from the minutes of the meetings, and based somewhat upon the articles in the Envoy concerning the society, this history not only presents a record of the society in its If160ti11gS, but it also enumerates the successes of the society members in scholastic and extra curricular activities. The history is one of the organization's dearest treasures. The membership of the society numbers about fifty students. New members are chosen upon their scholastic record, their character, leadership, and service. The society was fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Nebgen and Mr. Biter as sponsors. Their advice was cheerfully given, their patient and willing support, indispensable. - Sponsors MR. Louis NEBGEN MR.

Founded in 1919, the Nautilus Literary Society is the oldest in William Chrisman. The membership is kept up to the capacity. An interesting part of Chrisman's All-School Night was presented by the Nautilus. The theme of the grogram was a night in Hollywood, and our part was a presentation of a realistic view of Hollywood nightlife. The program was complete with orchestra and floor show. On January 4 an assembly program was given. Piano numbers by Violet Barnette, dances by Mary Fitzgerald, and two songs by Doreen Hougas and Betty Belle Thompson, were enjoyed. The mothers were entertained at the annual Mothers' Tea on April 10. An interesting program was given. The guest entertainers were Mrs. Leonard Lea, who read for us, and Mary Emily Hick and Eleanor Faunce, who danced. Tea was served and the mothers were given flowers. The society cooperated with the other societies in an inter-society dance and party which was given on Valentine's night. Richard Harry Lee's orchestra furnished the music and entertained with a floor show by pupils of Allegra Luif Smith. The Nautilus Literary Society was proud to have two of their number chosen for members of the National Honor Society, Violet White and Hazel Harris. Under the direction and supervision of Miss Ethel Benefield and Miss Ruth Bryant, the society has made great progress. We here wish to express to them our sincere thanks and gratitude. The Nautilus Literary Society wishes to dedicate this page to two loyal members, Leona Blackburn, who was graduated in May, 1934, and who died August 24, 1934, and Betty Ann Hurst, a sophomore, who died November 17, 1934.

The Spanish Club has Spent 9, Very enjoyable and profitable year. Membership, being based upon scholarship in Spanish, is limited to fifty pupils. Students making grades below M are not eligible. Monthly meetings, given over to guest speakers, book reviews, music, treasure hunts written in Spanish, games and other entertainment, were well attended. Among the visiting speakers Were Professors Clarence Chrisman, A. G. Byrns, and J. Frank Davis. , An assembly, presented April 12, in honor of Pan American Day, was quite colorful and enjoyed by the student body. Musical numbers were given by Betty Thompson, Nadine Werner, Becky Burrus, Irene Terrazas, and. a chorus composed of Juanita Dagley, Virginia Fulton, Kathleen Holtzen, Mary Jane Bean, Audentia Earl, Mayme Holt, Ineze Moore, Ber- nice Wisemore, Vida Duzan, Virginia Phillips, and Katherine Thompson. Two young hom- bres, Joe Adams and Bill Bailey, gave their interpretation of La Curaracha in English and Spanish, much to the delight of the audience. Following a dance by Mary Fitzgerald, slides were shown and explained by other members of the club. Dudley Bailey acted as interlocutor, and Kathleen Holtzen announced the program in Spanish. On April 13, Nadine Werner appeared on the Pan American radi-o program in musical numbers. Many schools in Missouri and Kansas tuned in on this program from KMBC. In order to raise money the group conducted a stand at one of the football games, and presented a benefit movie at the Granada theater March 23. The pictures shown were Rumba and La Curarachaj' both of Latin background. The proceeds from these ven- tures supplied the library with Spanish books, and leaves a fund for projects next year. A picnic was held in April. The climax of the club ventures was a Noche de Fiesta, held in the library April 26. Guests included members of the Senior and J unor High Spanish classes and others interested in -Spanish.

It is a club made up of girls who li Qi have at one time or another during their high school career, taken sewing or cooking. The p chief purpose of the organization is to promote more interest in the science of homemaking. ' The club's colors are that of the rainbow. Each one has a specific meaning which the girls lj, W strive hard to uphold. Among the accomplishments of this year are many Worthwhile proj- l ects. The sewing department has made the Chrisman bears which proved very successful, not only for their financial value but to promote the school spirit. This has been very il pleasant work which all members have enjoyed. Li ' - ' The Home Eckers had the privilege of spending a day going through some of the most interesting buildings in Kansas City. At another meeting they visited Slover Park where lf fifty of the members took part in a picnic. This group presented an interesting assembly 'i which was opened with yells and a diatetic song. Next was a three-act play entitled, Here E Comes the Bride. The characters were Jean Kelley, Frances Freema.n, and Elizabeth Q, U Jones. A talented musician, Billy McPherson, played two piano solos. Lorraine McCary li gave a clever reading, A Doorstep Dialogue. The club had its formal and informal initia- tlons which were followed by refreshments. There were twenty-five new members taken into 2, the club at that time. A Mothers' Tea is being planned. EQ, The club, although it is only two years old, shows great enthusiasm, and the interest of the members is ever increasing. As the members look into the future, many new plans are being made. We hope they will be a benefit to the school as well as to our group. Under the excellent supervision of Miss Margaret Chiles and Miss Vergie McCray, the Zggiitlgalsgzlpeen a huge success.

'Members not included in the picture: McDonald, Page, Wheaton, Baird, Burton, McCoy, The Cooking Department of our high school has been, is now, and always will be of vast importance to the attending students. In the laboratory the art and skill of grandmother's day meets with the sureness of scientific methods. At certain periods of the day the savory odors issuing from the laboratory draw forth numerous oh's and ah's from the students passing through the halls. The objectives this year have been very worthwhile. An effort has been made to solve problems in food management and marketing, and to train the pupils to select and serve attractive and appetizing menus which are conducive to health. Hospitality is an essential part of any home, and toward this end the students have striven to learn the usual courtesies for the entertainment of friends. Throughout the entire year the classes engaged in many' projects that will be of great benefit to them in future years. Among these were the difficult work of the canning and pre- serving of foods and the planning and serving of breakfast and luncheon menus. During the Christmas season, the classes made various kinds of hard and soft candies, a task naturally enjoyed by everyone. Following this was the study of cookery for the sick, and the art of entertaining. During the cold weather, the cafeteria preparation by the students was a great asset to the school. This work provided funds to pay for the page in the annual and also to send repre- sentatives to the annual district contest at Warrensburg. As we know, an exercise, whether with pots and pans or with tools and books, is valuable only in proportion to the demand it makes upon the mind for skilled, thoughtful work. Thus in the classes they have acquired the art of thinking. The classes boast of having sixteen boys out of the seventy-seven students enrolled. In appreciation of the expert supervision and kindly attitude toward their mistakes, the members of the cooking department wish to dedicate this page to Miss Vergie McCray.

The Commercial Club, composed of students taking commercial subjects, was organized for the purpose of obtaining a better comprehension of business and the professional world, to promote sociability among the students of the commercial department, and to increase their interest in their work. ' The club was proud of the accomplishments it mastered during the past year. At War- rensburg Frances Duncan, Marguerite Smith, Viola Schuster, and Violet White represented William Chrisman in the shorthand and typing contests. Frances Duncan, Violet White, and Viola Schuster, Commercial members, were typists for the Envoy, and Marguerite Smith and Hazel Harris served as typists on the Gleam staff. A clever skit, The Steno World, was given by the members of the club in their assem- bly. Through the magazine, shorthand, typing, business dress, advertising, and spending of leisure time were illustrated in an interesting manner. The club held its meetings every second and fourth Monday of the month. The business was attended to first, then a program was given, usually a play, talks, songs, dances, or piano, and violin solos. Prominent business men talked to the club at various times on what they expect of stenographers and secretaries and what to expect in the business world. Field trips were taken to various business houses to see what makes the wheels of in- dustry go around. The members have participated not only in their own club work, but in the activities of the school. They contributed Christmas baskets to two less fortunate families. The club was highly honored to be asked to type programs of Ted Shawn's dances which were exhibited in the Memorial Building in the Winter. The club wishes to express its appreciation to Miss Fallon and Miss Moore, the spon- sors, for their Whole-hearted support in making the year's activities successful and for their companionship which made it all most enjoyable.

The Pep Club, during the second year of its most successful existence, may look back over its record with pride, and with the feeling that it has in a large part accomplished what it set out to do, namely, to stimulate pep, not only for athletic contests, but for other school acivities as well. The club consists of two representatives from each society and organization in the school. Under the excellent supervision of Miss Fallon and Mr. Blackmore the students were able to sponsor and present some of the best entertainments ever witnessed by the student body. During the football season the Pep Club led many unique and colorful parades. It con- ducted several of the pep meetings for which Chrisman is famous, these consisting of the intro- duction of the team, music by the high school band, and .pep talks by outside sport enthusiasts and students, which stressed the importance of pep, school spirit, and above all, sportsman- ship. These pep fests were followed by bonfires, characterized by rousing yells and joyous songs. With the second semester and the basketball season came the election of new officers. In this season the members presented many clever skits which were largely responsible for the splendid support our deserving team received. These were given before assemblies for the entire student body, and between halves at the games. The grand finale of entertainment was presented in the form of the Pe Club Minstrel p . This depicted a scene on a cotton plantation. The blue sky and rolling clouds formed a very effective background for the group of cotton pickers who also served as a chorus for the sing- ing. The Minstrel was presented in the usual fashion, with the jokes and comedy Of the end men being supplemented by special acts and singing. The members of the Pep Club wish to take this opportunity to give three rousing cheers for its sponsors and for the school. Sponsors MR.

The Glee Club, under the capable and efficient leadership of Miss Jessie Smith, is the largest and most active department in Chrisman, and one of the hardest Working of the extra curricular activities. , Very few people realize the willing aid given by the Music Department to other school organizations and to the community. This year there have been over one hundred members. Glee Club rehearsals are held after school 621011 TU6Sd9-Y, which Prepare the members for assembly programs, Christmas caroling, and other music activities. There were rehearsals every day during the weeks they were staging the operetta just before and after Christmas. This year the Glee Club Worked faithfully on the operetta, The Tea House of Sing Lo. This was perhaps the most outstanding of itS accomplishments, and has been declared one of the best operettas ever given in William ChriSU131'l High School. The name itself tells you that it was a Chinese play of rhythmic and colorful music, clever lines, and attractive costumes. One hundred and ten students did. their best to make it the success which it Was. The scene, a Chinese tea garden, was most beautifully Worked out by Miss Nell Sampson and her art classes. The Glee Club, combined with the third and sixth hour chorus classes, have sung on a number of occasions, both for school activities and community programs. The Glee Club also represented Chrisman in the all-school music festival, which was given in the Memorial Building on April 12. i Many of our number have graduated this year, but a larger number are left to form the nucleus for next year's Glee Club.

Th e William Chrisman High School orchestra has for many years brought honor to our school and community. The cups and plaques in our trophy cases that have been won by our orchestra show that, until recently when we, as a Class A school, were eliminated from the district contests by the district oflicials, the orchestra placed first every year. The orchestra, a group of forty students is, indeed, an honor to the school. But we feel that it would not have reached its height had it not been for its director, Miss Jessie Smith, who has so capably given them inspiration and instruction during the year. The orchestra, this year, has taken part in many of the school programs. About twenty- three members of the group were used to play the instrumental accompaniment for the operetta which was presented February 7 and 8. The entire orchestra furnished the music between the acts of the annual senior play, given March 14 and 15. April 12, the group played at the annual spring music festival at the Memorial Building. The last perform- ance of the year was the commencement exercises. The orchestra played the processional for the seniors and also played a famous concert number. Since the district contest at Warrensburg has been closed to orchestras of Class A schools, the award of letters has been based upon class work and outside performances. To get a letter one must do satisfactory class work and be present at all outside performances. Like all other high school organizations, a large number of our orchestra graduated this year, but a loyal number are left who will be a part of the orchestra of next year.

H erbert Straw The Latin Club is divided into three partsg one consists of seniors, another juniors, a third, those Who in their language are called Wise-ones, in ours, sophomores. These differ in. literature, syntax, and vocabulary. Of these, the most learned are seniors, because they are further advanced in conjugations and declensions. For this reason they are permitted to study Vergil. For the same reason, juniors surpass others, because they deliver daily orations against Catiline. Infiuenced by the example of upper classmen, sophomores decide to prepare those things which Will aid them in their study of Caesar. They learn as much syntax as possible and the greatest number of Words possible so that their Work may be made easier. The adviser of those people is Miss Ellen Singleton. It is easy, she says, when you have learned the fundamentals of the language, to become master of all Latin. In order to arouse more interest, these people have conspired and bound themselves by a pledge into the Latin Club. ' Le Fleur-cle- Lis The French Club was organized under the sponsorship of Miss Mary Alice Gibbons. The literal meaning of the official name is flower of the lily. This was adopted as the emblem of the kings of France in 1180. In 1376 Charles V fixed the form of the French kings' coat of arms definitely Azure, a trois fleur-de-lis d'or -which means three golden fleurs-de-lis on a blue field. The purpose of the club is to further the study of French customs, art, and authors. A number of interesting talks have been given on the Works of French writers and artists. Miss Ellen Nelson gave an interesting talk on her trip to Paris. The first semester Frances New- comer reviewed an interesting book by a French novelist. Josephine Gregg has given a syn- opsis of some stories by French authors. The meetings have been made more enjoyable by musical selections and by playing interesting games in French.

It endeavors to assist all those interested in preparing themselves to speak in public with ease and fluency. To accomplish this end, open forum discussions and debates were held at the bi-Weekly meetings of the organization. The outstanding activity sponsored by the .Forum this year was the presentation of Hollywood-Night. The immediate purpose of this program was to secure funds to finance the attendance of representatives of William Chrisman at the contests and tournaments con- ducted with other schools. This program was presented with the able assistance of the literary societies of William Chrisman. The Forum Wishes hereby to acknowledge its sincere appreciation of the cooperation of these organizations. . The Forum has been particularly active in assisting the delegates in preparation for the tournament held at Marshall. William Chrisman entered as many contestants as possible in all branches of forensics. ' The Forum Wishes to thank the sponsors, Mr. Berkemeier and Mr. Biter, for their efforts in our behalf 5 to them We owe much of the success of the work of this year. Bio-Ag Club F The Bio-Ag Club composed of biology and agriculture is sponsored by Mr. Berkemeier and Mr. Nebgen. At the meetings in Mr. Berkemeier's room varied programs are given- talks by visitors, debates and lively discussion by the membersg interesting film strips on dairy cattle, vegetable gardening, and poultry are shown. Enjoyable field trips to the Independence Ice Plant, Slaughter's Creamery, Bunyar's Greenhouse, and a trip to study trees have been taken. On March 1 the members entertained their friends.

Literary ------An ------Arz e..-e--A1't From year to year it has been the aspiration and hope of each succeeding Gleam staff to make its year book more beautiful, more interesting, more valuable in later years, than any preceding annual. The Gleam staff of 1935 is no exception to this rule. Ambitious, opti- mistic, diligent, they have conceived and attempted to execute a book which will be Worthy of its predecessors and which Will bring honor to Chrisman. The theme, Service, is closely allied With the title of the book, which in turn suggests the gleam of inspiration, service, ambition, joy, and accomplishment for which Chrisman stands. ' The system of co-editors has again been employed and found very successful. Each editor with his assistants has earnestly carried on his particular tasks and has pleasantly cooperated with the' other members of the staff in an effort to make the 1935 Gleam the best one yet produced. Work began in September when the business managers talked over their plans and they, together with the art editors and the literary editor, determined to make this year book, if possible, the most attractive ever published. Before actually outlining their course for activity, they visited the engravers, where they were initiated into the mysteries of the process of making cuts, Also much time Was given to staff meetings, Where a tentative dummy was laid out. Then came the all-important task of persuading every student and organization to have a picture taken.. Proof of the perseverance of the persuaders is the fact that fourteen organi- zations and a large percentage of the student body responded. . ' The individual pictures had to be collected and assorted, checked and rechecked. Jua- nita East, Myrl MacCallum, Maxine' Budd, and Viva Ellen McKim, assistant editors, Worked with the editors in this task. Panels for all three class and group pictures were then mounted by the art editors. One section after another of the book was planned, designed, and completed. Clark Blocher and Vivian Barton both submitted complete original designs for the opening and divi- sion pages. Because of the adaptability of her design to the method of construction and be- cause it linked S0 C10SGly with the title and theme, Vivian's design was chosen. The respon- sibility of the block-cutting of these pages was assumed by Clark Blocher, Francis Corn, Maynard Whetstone, Melvin Armstrong, Joseph McCutchan, Kenneth Clow, Fred Chappelow William Odom, Keith Johnson, Reginald Crum- ley, Frank Wilson, and Clyde Rohrs. In addition to the opening pages there Were Page 76 V Gleam Staff Assistants Miss Ianic Chiles. ..,..., Finance Miss Nell E. Sampson. ......, Ari Miss Emina C. Ilill ....s.

The zinc etchings were sketched by Juanita East and Marguerite Elliott. Reproduc- ing arrangements in a printer's dummy was the duty of Hazel Stauffer, Maxine Budd, and Viva Ellen McKim. The art staff is greatly indebted to Mr. Cooksey of the Year Book Department of Teache- nor-Bartberger Engraving Company for his advice and help, and to Mr. Orrin Moon of the Lambert Moon -Printing Company for his counsel and cooperation, also to Mr. Fred Fish, artist, for his assistance in the final preparation of material. To the literary staff, headed by Josephine Gregg, fell the task of writing all reading material in the annual. Cleta Caldwell assembled the alumni notes, while Elroy Frye was executor of the will. Much credit should be given to Florence Sehrt, who not only wrote more than her share of articles, but also worked as tyDiS'C- Othefs Wh0 Worked Wefe Jack Ragan, Dudley Bailey, Nelle Davis, Hazel Stauffer, Claire Reagin, and Elnora Short. The typing staff willingly gave their time Whenever copy was ready. The typists were Marguerite Smith, Florence Sehrt, Hazel Harris, and Claire Reagin. As advertising managers, Gilbert Tvvyman and Emil Oeser Were chosen because of their splendid work last year on the advertising staff of the Envoy, and as assistants they had Carl Weidner and Bill Callahan, In the sale of the book, all the staff took an active part, with Joseph McCutchan as busi- ness manager, and Robert Markey and John Mohler as assistants. Commendation is due Rowena May, who sold more Gleams than anyone else. This year the staff has fortunately had the advice and assistance of five capable sponsors. Miss Janie Chiles has ably directed the finances, Miss Nell Sampson 1135 UUl5iTi1'1g1Y Supervised the art workg Miss Emina Hill has carefully checked all literary material, and Miss Ada Fal- lon has seen that all typing was done correctly. Mr. Dale Pigg gave much of his time to advertising, snap shots, and the sales campaign. Let it be said that sponsors and staif have earnestly striven to give Chrisman an annual which fully measures up to the high standard which has been set by previous issues. I Page 77 Editors Clyde Rohrs -..-...---Fir:t Semester Anna Belle Soulc .,Secand Semester Sponsor Miss MABEL POTTER Under the sponsorship of Miss Mabel Potter, Miss Ellen Singleton, and, Mr. Dale Pigg, the Envoy staff has published a very interesting paper this year. As haspalways been the policy of the bi-Weekly, the staff has endeavored to publish articles reflecting the school activities. The first school paper that Independence High -School published was in 1898. It was called The School Advocate- and was published by the Phi Sigma Literary Society of which Guy Mc- Carroll was president, the editor was Charles D. Capelle. The I. H. S. Booster, the next paper published, was sponsored by Miss Nellie Begey. and edited by Elizabeth Jones. Miss Meinhoffer supervised the first publication of a paper in William Chrisman. r The Gleam was first edited in 1921 by William Johnson. As journalism was then taught in William .Chrisman High School, the paper was prepared in class. In 1923 the oflice of editor-in-chief was made a student-body office. It was then that the first attempt at publishing a real school paper was made. It was small, being three columns Wide and twelve inches long. ' Miss Potter became sponsor of the Gleam with Mr. Blevins Davis in 1928. The paper was enlarged to four columns wide and thirteen inches long. 1 Under the capable hands of the editors, Ralph McConnell and Charles Spahr, in 1929, the paper Was made fifteen inches long. Another sponsor, Mr. Pigg, was added to the staff at this time. . Several improvements took place in 1931. The paper became five colums wide and eigh- teen inches long, and the name Was changed from The Gleam to The Chrisman Envoy. The present staff is large enough to include all diligent Workers who are interested in developing their journalistic ability. The paper includes ac- counts of athletic events and plays to make these activities more successful. Interesting editorials on topics -discussed by students are Written for each issue. The frontpage of the paper carries these subjects which are of supreme interest to every loyal Chrismanite. The feature Writers have done much this year to present humor to the readers. Each society and club is given a brief Writeup in the paper, preceding their meetings. The staff leaves to future staff members their enthusiasm and ability to give William Chrisman a paper of which the school will always be proud. Page 78 Debaters FRANCES MJXRIE HALL . MARIORIE MOORE ' HARRY DooLEY, IR. CHARLES RELSE Sponsor M:ss HARRIET NORTHERN Y The question the debate teams discussed for the past year Was, Resolved that the fed- eral government should adopt the policy of equalizing educational opportunities throughout the nation by' means of annual grants to the several states for public elementary and secondary education. Those students who represented Chrisman this year in the many debates were Marjorie Moore, Frances Marie Hall, Junior Dooley, and Charles Reese. On December 14, Marjorie, Frances Marie, and Junior participated in their first debate tournament at Topeka. They Won four out of six debates. The team has debated almost all the Kansas City schools, together with Raytown, Lees Summit, Excelsior Springs, Liberty, Parkville, and DeSoto. We were defeated in none of these debates, many of them Were non-decision. It was compulsory for the debaters to uphold both the negative and aflirmative sides at the forensic tournament at Marshall. Because of her outstanding ability there, Marjorie Moore Was classed as the best debater, as a result of this she won a 32501 scholarship to Mis- souri Valley College, , William Woods College for girls and Westminster College for boys at Fulton, Missouri, held their annual tournaments on March 15, 16. The team gave excellent debates there also. Marjorie received a scholarship for being the second best debater in the tournament. The girls won individual loving cups and also one large cup for the school. The boys were able to go to the semi-finals, but were eliminated from the contest, losing to Plattsburg. Junior and Charles were awarded bronze medals. The debate squad has engaged in seventy debates this year, of which forty-one were decision. Chrisman has Won thirty and lost eleven. We appreciate the hard Work that has been done by these students and their excellent coach, Miss Northern. CHARLES REEsE FRANCES MARIE HALL MARJORIE MOORE HARRY DOOLEY, IR.

Inssin Moons The annual Senior Class Play was presented in William Chrisman auditorium on the nights of March 14 and 15. ' . Hot Copy a modern three-act newspaper comedy, was written by Clark Willard. It was ably directed by the class sponsors, Miss Janie Chiles and Mr. Earl Page, kindly assisted by Mrs. Jessie Moore and other faculty members. - A brief of the play follows: Kenneth Wade fDudley Baileyj , young owner and editor of the Evening Herald, and deeply in debt, opposes the candidacy for mayor of Dudley Kay QBen Moorej. The latter combines all his efforts to try to make Wade walk out of town. Kay luckily gets possession of the chattel mortgage Wade gave on his newspaper plant. Wade, a playwright in addition to being a newspaper man, sends a copy of his stirring newspaper story to Dramatic Pictures Corporation in Hollywood. The Pictures Corporation refuses to buy his story. From then on, Wade's only hope is to beat Kay in the election and effect the election of William H. Phil- lips, the opposing candidate. n Jane Corwin fMuriel Loosemoreb steps into the picture and'puts up a valiant fight to keep the paper from insolvency. She has in her attempt the support of Bill Gregory CBill Callahanl, young wisecracking criminal reporter 3 Sylvia Dale fKathleen Holtzenb, just out of high school and doing society and want ads for the Heraldg Bud Rice fHarlan Soulel , the best printer in the state g and Peg Wilson fBetty McKimJ , a tramp printer, but very competent. Du-dley.Kay runs an ad in the paper campaigning for himself. He forecloses on the mortgage' and attempts to have the plant sold. Kay loses the election by a slight margin. His plans to buy: the local water company's plant for the city are defeated by the Herald's editorials. Wade receives an offer from Holly- wood for his story. Having sent his copy to New York and having loaned the duplicate to Miss Hazel Winston fUarda Lee Brun-dagel, Wade is left without a story. At the critical moment Miss Winston reveals herself as the vice president of the Hollywood company and manages to save Wade. All ends happily, and Kay turns out to be a good sport. Page 80' z . .-rf Operetta Director Miss IESSIE SMITH Assistant MR. Louis NEBGEN Accom panisl: ALICE Woonsima The music department was justly proud of the wonderful performance of the annual operetta onthe nights of February 7 and 8. Tea House of Sing Lo was a very colorful play threaded with Chinese beauty and romance. The tea shop of Sing Lo, successfully portrayed by Emmett LaFrance, was the scene of the action. It was beautifully decorated with Chinese flowers of every color and intricate signs in the native language. Dainty little tea tables were arranged in cozy places, and the guests moved in and out among them. i Bert McKee, Elmer Pearson, was the star salesman for the Maxwell Sho-Glo Signs Company. As Sing Lo was old fashioned and would not use modern signs to advertise his business, Bert and Mr. Maxwell make an agreement that Bert might marry Mr. Maxwell's daughter, June, if he could get Sing Lo to buy some Sho-Glo signs. June, in person, Myrelle McClain, was traveling with her parents. Bert and June were in love, and their love scene was enthusiastically received by the audience. Bert launched a sales campaign against .Sing Lo to win June. So High, Virginia Phillips, and Ah Mee, Melba Moorman, daughters of Sing Lo, moving silently about in typical Chinese manner, deftly served the tea. Fred Chappelow efliciently played the role of No Fan, the right hand man of Sing Lo, and could easily jabber in an un- known tongue as well as throw out undesirable customers. Leroy Braby, as the Honorable Alexander Appletree, the American Consul at Shanghai, was to make a visit to the tea garden. As he had never before been there, no one knew how he looked. Sing Lo and his daughters were preparing an elaborate entertainment in his honor. As Bert McKee was a stranger, Sing Lo and No Fan made the mistake of thinking he was the consul. When the consul really did arrive, No Fan threw him out in a very undig- nified manner. The consul returned and successfully made known his identity. Bert finally sold Sing Lo many of the beautiful Sho-Glo signs. By selling this large amount of advertis- ing, Bert had fulfilled his part of the contract, and he and June found their own happiness amid a beautiful setting. The chorus, orchestra, and accompanist contributed their part to the success of the operetta. Miss Smith deserves the highest praise for her work with each individual and the responsibility of carryng to so great a success the operetta of this year. Pug z' 8 1 Junior Play Sponsors MR. GEORGE BERKEMEIER Mn. Ioi-iN BLACKMORE The junior class chose for presentation an uproarious comedy, The Whole Town's Talk- ing. The hero, a meek, girl-shy bachleor, Chester Binney, was excellently portrayed by Otis Brown. Binney and Henry Simmons, played by George Tousley, form a scheme to attract the attention of Ethel, Simmons, daughter. This part was played by twin sisters, Dorothy and Eleanor Fairbanks. The audience was unable to detect the difference as the twins are iden- tical in voice and appearance. 4 Ethel just returned from Chicago, had brought a guest, Roger Shields of Chicago and Paris. Shields fTom Hindel created a furore among Ethel's friends. Sally Otis CBetty Ann Thiceb and Lila Wilson CElnora Shortl, are both very much affected by Roger Shields. Mrs. Simmons, with social aspirations, is ably played by Mary Margaret Street. She likes Shields very well, but can see nothing in Binneyf' Mr. Simmons planned to select the picture of some famous woman and imitate her signature on the back, pretending that Binney had had a love affair with her. Binney, sent to the second-hand store to get some pictures, returned with the Mona Lisa, Queen Marie of Roumania, and Letty Lythe, the movie queen. The news spreads rapidly, and The Whole T0wn's Talking. Ethel becomes engaged to Binney. In the second act all is coming along well until the news reaches them that Letty Lythe is to make a personal appearance at the Luna Theater. Letty CMyrelle McClainj and her jealous lover, Donald Swift fLaRue Surfacej, arrive. Shields is a friend of Swift and shows him Letty's picture. He tells Letty about it, and she decides to cure this tin-horn sport. .Swift is enraged and attempts to kill Binney. In the third act Simmons and Binney discuss the situation, deciding that Letty has used Binney to make Donald Swift jealous. Shields arrives and promises to placate Swift, which he really doesn't intend to do. Mr. Simmons says Sadie Bloom CLorraine McCaryJ is another old flame of Chet's. Chester persuades Ethel that he loves only her, and just then they see Sadie of whom Simmons tells the same tale as before. This so enrages Ethel that she refuses to have anything to do with Chet. Swift arrives and with Shields he fights Binney in the dark. When the lights go on, Chester is sitting on the newel post. He pretends to have overcome Swift and Shields, who really fought each other. Letty takes Swift and Shields off, and Ethel and Chester are reunited. The play was capably directed by Mr. Berkemeier and Mr. Blackmore. Pagc 82 f - o Sophomore Play Sponsors MR. RAY FRENCH MR. Iosravn BITE11 Miss Noxm AMES The sophomore play for this year was given December 13 and 14, 1934. Large audiences were drawn to both performances in which the casting, directing, story, and costuming were far above average, A novel experience was noted in the sophomore play this year. This was the presence of a dual cast. One cast presented the play Thursday night, the other gave it Friday night. The name of the play was The Big Cheese. The humorous situations were plentiful, the precarious positions numerous. The complications began early in the plot, and the sparkling dialogue increased the interest and suspense. The opening of the play saw Wallie Larkin Cplayed by William Smith and John Paxtonj in great difficulties. He had written to a girl in his home town telling her that he was presi- dent of the Brewster Cheese Company, while he was really only a bookkeeper. He received a letter from the girl, Doris Bancroft Ctaken by Barbara Hacker and Ruth Riskel, who said she was coming to the city on legal matters, and expected to see a lot of Wallie and his fac- tory while she was there. Wallie rushed to his friend, Bob Brewster QDonald Harder and Harold Barnesj and told him of his troubles. Together the two came upon a plan to save Wallie. Bob's law oflices were next to the cheese company's, so they turned the law offices into a cheese office for President Larkin's use. Meanwhile, Wallie had further complicated matters by issuing a sign which, quite by accident, read, Sam Brewster, President and head cheese. Mr. Brewster fArthur Brown and Edmund Stoddardl was naturally infuriated and vowed to kill the innocent Larkin. However, before the head cheese's plans had time to take effect, he was called out of town on a business trip. Doris Bancroft arrived in town with her friend Verna Calloway fJuanita Dagley and Mary Schwanh. In order to appear im- pressive, Wallie had ordered Mable to issue phoney telephone calls. While Mable was at lunch, the other telephone operator connected him with a call which turned out to be real. The cheese market had been falling, and by this call, Wallie forced the cheese company to lose four thousand dollars. More complications arose when Sam Brewster, the real presi- dent, returned, and later when it was discovered that Bob Brewster was the lawyer to whom Doris had planned coming for legal advice. During this time the buds of romance were How- ering in two different places. The first was between Bob Brewster and Doris Bancroft, the second between pretty Betty Brewster and Ted Spratt. All the tangled webs being straight- ened out, the characters started for the annual picnic. Page 83 Warrensburg Meet Every year contestants in athletics and academic work are selected to represent William Chrisman High School at Warrensburg and Columbia. I The Warrensburg Latin contest consists of two contestants in each of the four years. The representatives are chosen on the basis of the year's records, together with a series of tests given in the different phases of the work such as vocabulary, syntax, translation, and content. Usually four or five persons take these tests, and it is always very difficult to choose two from these groups because of the closeness of their ranking. For this reason the persons who compete in this preliminary contest receive SOITIB h0I10I'. Margaret Church and Martha Vaile ranked the highest in the preliminary, so were chosen as representatives. Their examination was in second year Latin, particularly Caesar. In the third year Eveline Burgess and Elno ra Short ranked highest, their examination was on Cicero. Florence Sehrt and Frances Duncan were the representatives in fourth year Latin and took an examination on Vergil. These girls were at a disadvantage for the reason that they studied Vergil last year and are studying Cicero this year. Warrensburg Sewing Contesl: During the past two months, under the valuable supervision of Miss Margaret Chiles, there has been an increased amount of hurrying to and fro. For amidst the busy humming of the sewing machines and the very careful snip, snip of the scissors, yards of material have been transformed into the kind of frocks one actually dreams about and Plans. From among all these active, tireless workers two, namely, Irene Allen and Louise Wiegant, were chosen to represent Chrisman in the Warrensburg sewing contest. They have made very attractive plaid, cotton dresses from commercial patterns which they plan to model. The candidates took a note book in which six illustrations of technical points, such as a mitered corner, a bound and faced placket, or a set-on pocket was shown and discussed, as Well as their sewing kits, containing scissors, thimble, needles, and one half yard of cambric which wasused in the various tests taken. The girls who have before represented Chrisman have done very well. In 1926 Drucilla Henning won first place. Anna Kolle and Bernice Koehler took first pace in 1929. Natalie Jackson and Eeanor Riske won in 1932. Muriel Loosemore and Mary Charlotte Irving re- ceived highest place last year. A Foods and Home Nursing This year five students entered the preliminary Foods contest. They were Elizabeth Jones, Natalie Koehler, Frances Taylor, Melvin Baird, and William Raley. Natalie Koehler ranked first, Frances Taylor second, and William Raley third. The two highest ranking students composed the team who represented our high school at Warrensburg. , Four students entered the Home Nursing Contest: Anna Lucy Barwise, Duelda Bailey, Virginia Moorman, and Elizabeth Jones. Anna Lucy Barwise ranked first, Elizabeth Jones ranked second, and Virginia Moorman ranked third. The two highest ranking students entered Page 84 the contest at Warrensburg. In both of these contests the students were required to take written examinations, and also to do demonstra- tion work. In the Foods contest the students are usually asked to pre- pare and serve a luncheon. In the Home Nursing contest they demon- strate the proper way of making a bed for a sick person, the taking of temperatures, reading the pulse, etc. , This year three very able students were sent to represent the bookkeeping department. They were John Crandall, Billy Wilson, and Susan Witthar. Billy McPherson, who played the piano, was the only representative from William Chris- man in the music contest at Warrensbuhg. I The forensic department was ably represented by Dedrick Childers in boys' declamation, by Dorothy Fairbanks in girls' declamation, and by Frank Johnson in extemporaneous speak- ing. Dedrick Childers, who placed first in boys' declamation at Marshall, Missouri, thus became eligible to enter the national meet in Kent, Ohio. At Columbia, Missouri, April 13, the debate team composed of Frances Marie Hall and Marjorie Moore defeated West Plains in their iirst round. Their next victory was a three to one decision against Plattsburg, the state champions of last year. In the finals the Chris- man team lost a two to one decision to Carrolton. Both of the teams which went to the last debate were entitled to go to the national contest in Kent, Ohio. Music Contest The Music Department sent the girls' quartet and a number of solo contestants to Columbia on Saturday, May 4, who took part in the state contests for Class A high schools. 1 Miss Smith had expected to enter the boys' quartet and the mixed quartet, but because of the illness of Elmer Pearson, the only first tenor in school, was unable to do so. 'Ihe girls' quartet, composed of Myrelle McClain, Melba Moorman, Loretta Sutton, and Gladys Dixon, sang the contest number, which was Month of May, by Louis Scarmolin, anda selection of their own choice, Rockin' in de Win', by Neidlinger. The contest num- ber had to be sung unaccompanied. In the other number they were accompanied by Alice Marie Woodside, who had been the school accompanist this year. V The soprano soloists were Melba Moorman and Myrelle McClain. The alto soloists were Gladys Dixon, Virginia Phillips, and Loretta Sutton. The baritone soloists were David Allen, Emmett LaFrance, and Gordon Taggart. All of the soloists were accompanied by Alice Woodside. Those entering the piano contest were Mary Catherine Yale, Alice Woodside, Emma Jeanne Etzenhouser, and Billy McPherson. Each contestant was required to do the contest number and one number of his or her own choice. A Page 85 5 166' x fx 4.13 f Em H I' .

The purpose of the National Athletic Scholarship Society is to create a higher scholastic ability in athletes of William Chrisman High School. By havng ths society, the boys are en- couraged to develop their minds as well as their bodies. Athletics were not, however, intro- duced with the idea of coming before the regular academic subjects. This society was char- tered in order that the boys would recognize more fully the unselfishness, in a sportsmanship manner, would represent their school on the football field, basketball court, or on the track, and at the same time, do their school work so well as to Warrant recgnition. The William Chrisman Chapter number 1234 of the National Athletic Scholarship Society was established May 25, 1929, by Coach Harry L. Lee. It has carried on since that time, and this year has had a membership of fifty-two, five have been members for three years, sixteen for two years. This year the society organized with seven members who have been in the society for two years each. Nine new members have been taken in, making a total of sixteen for the year. Membership in this society in limited to boys that have earned a letter in one of the sports of the school, football, basketball, and track, and who for the three semesters preceding the semester in-which they lettered have attained an average grade of HM. The National Athletic Scholarship Society has had some outstanding pupils of the school as their members. The boys who have earned recognition into the society have accomplished one of the greatest honors in William Chrisman High School. Many of the society members in the past year have gone away to college. These fellows became so accustomed to getting their lessons in high school that it is no trouble at all for them in college. The boys that we, as a society, are so proud of are Robert Smith and George Parrish, attending Missouri University. At Kansas University the society is represented by G. L. Harrington, Rodney Choplin, and Robert Faucett. This year the society has had 'one of the largest numbers of members that it has ever had. There are twenty-six boys in William Chrisman who have earned a letter this year. Of this number we have sixteen members in this society. Worked out in percentage, it means that sixty per cent of the boys earning letters belong to the society. Out of the sixteen that are members this year, seven of them were in the society last year. Their names are Forrest McDaniels, Eddie Bracht, Lawrence Lynch, Frank Brauninger, Billy Fullerton, William Raley, and Edward Sandridge. When the soc'ety picture was taken, four of the members were not present: Ward -Smith, Billy Fullerton, Billy Harder, and Edward Sandridge. V Sixteen new members for the year of 1935 bring the total membership to eighty-nine since the organization of the society in 1929.

Chester Schulenberg Page 89 Our Coaches MR CHAR H iw MR R FR Non We owe a great deal to our coaches of the past year. Most of the student body of Wil- liam Chrisman do not know of the real worth of these men. Perhaps we realize, but we do not appreciate the fine work they do. Our football, basketball, track, intra-mural sports, and dozens of other sport activities are taught and are under the strict supervision of the coaches. It takes skill, perseverance, and patience to instruct a group of high' school boys in the field of sport. Besides teaching the fundamentals of the game the coaches must institute in them the practice of sportsmanship and the right use of game rules. It is the coach who wor- ries himself baldheaded throughout the game, not only for the sake of winning the contest, but for fear of injury to the contestants. The coach comes to know the fellows who play under him, their feelings, and their peculiarities. This as much as anything else may influ- ence the life of the boy. The coach cannot receive too much credit. Charles Huhn came to Chrisman this year from Junior High School where he had been teaching for a year. Previously he had been teaching and coaching in Florida. 0 Mr. Huhn was graduated from Chrisman in 1926, and was a member of the basketball squad. He completed his education at the University of Missouri. While there, he achieved great honors as an athlete. Because of his height and skill he was particularly inclined toward basketball. He played basketball three years, was elected all conference man twice and all Big Six captain once. He was captain of the Tiger team in his senior year and re- ceived honorable mention for the all American team that season. - Coach Huhn has turned out a good football team and an exceptionally fine basketball squad. The football season looked dark, as did basketball, at the first of the season. Each how- ever, turned out well, and Mr. Huhn had the honor of taking his regional tournament basket- ball champions to the state tournament at Columbia. Mr., or Coach, Huhn, is very well liked here in school, as he is elsewhere, and has the biggest heart of anyone in school. Much luck to him, he deserves it. Ray French has been in Chrisman several years, being one of the best liked teachers here. He is an instructor in hygiene and gymnasium. All intra-mural and inter-class contests are under his direct supervision. Many of the sports which the student body is able to see are made possible by him. The games seen at noon during the past season were made pos- sible by his untiring work. Mr. French was graduated from the Warrensburg Teachers' College, where he was a star basketball player and an all-around athlete. He takes a personal interest in all students and student activities and has sponsored many classes and clubs. Page 90 l i 1 7 l l E Our Squad Co-Captains FRANK BRAUNINGER Wn.i.mM RALEY EDWARD SANDRIDGF Back Row: Liebi, lmmcr, Raley, Stanley, Sandridge, Brauninger, Daughlrcy. Front Row: Harder, Chambers, Chrestensen, Ettinger. The football prospects for the 1934 season were not particularly promising. Three letter men, .William Raley, Edward Sandridge, and Frank Brauninger were the ones on whom Coach Huhn had to base his hopes. With the aid of Clifford Immer, who had lettered at Buckner the previous season, an efiicient line was built. This, however, composed only one part of the team. A backfield, the brains of any eleven, had to be developed. The boys upon whom this responsibility rested were somewhat inexperienced, yet they were for the most part fast and accurate even in their earlier practices. The first part of the playing schedule was much harder than the last, owing to the green- ness of the team. The opposition for the earlier engagements proved a little too much for the Chrisman gridsters. Though beaten at times by as much as three touchdowns, the Bears were deeply respected by the teams against which they played. In each of the earlier contests Coach Huhn's boys fought gallantly and should be complimented for doing so, having lost, for the most part, to champions in their individual conferences. At North Kansas City the two squads seemed to be of equal power throughout the first half, and except for fumbles by inex- perienced Chrisman boys, the same way during the third and fourth periods. In the Manual game the Bears, being decisively outplayed during the quarters before the intermission, had succeeded in driving the ball over the goal line once and were seriously threatening to repeat the performance when the whistle blew with the members of the Inter- scholastic League six points ahead. Of the two games in which the Bears were consistently outplayed, the first was at Ward. Even there, however, Chrisman was well in the other's territory a number of times. The other of the two was Liberty. Here our eleven fought desperately but could get no closer than the thirty-yard line. By the end of the playing season Chrisman's football team was, after the series of earlier setbacks, one of the best of the round about territory. After long nights of practice, the squad developed into a highly scientific eleven, having tricky spinner plays, as well as veiled and often lateral passes which were respected and feared by all opposition. Bill Har- der, Chrisman's long punting fullback, was an invaluable asset. His field goal in the Liberty game was among the longest ever kicked by a Chrisman back. Due to him, all teams realized and dreaded the possibility of our scoring from near mid-field. Chrisman's most outstanding victory was in the game with St. Joseph Benton. Having lost to Lafayette High School of that city, the Bears, in spite of all predictions concerning the game, defeated the powerful invaders by six points. At the present time our prospects for next year appear quite good. Six letter men, in- cluding James Christensen, Gilbert Daughtrey, Jack Ettinger, Russell Hughes, Forrest Mc- Daniels, Leslie Price, and Grover Redford will be filling equipment again. Jude Christen- sen, Buck Hughes,and Eddie Sandridge have been elected co-captains for next year's team. Page 91 The Bears found some difficulty in hitting the right stride at the first of the football season. After losing three games the team won two, then lost the same number. Gallantly fighting, they Hnished the season by defeating strong teams from Odessa and St. Joseph on our home field. At the beginning of school some forty willing, yet for the most part inexperienced, boys turned out for football practice Among these youngsters were only three who had pre- viously had enough playing time to earn their Chrisman UC. Around this nucleus Coach Huhn labored long and hard in order that a winning team be devel- oped. By means of the splen- did cooperation, as well as fighting spirit, of the boys he was eventually able to do this. Our first game was a mud battle with North Kansas City on the latter's gridiron. As the second half proceeded, the Bears were overcome by the tremendous -driving power of the opposing backfield, who scored fourteen points to our none. Our second contest was played against Manual High School of Kansas City on our athletic field. The Bears al- lowed their opponents to score two touchdowns during the course of the first half, mak- ing a touchdown for them- selves in the fourth quarter. This was the first Manual- Chrisman event ever won by the former. The Ward Cyclones, maintaining not only a stonewall defense but a machine gun atta k , c as well, simply overpowered the Chrisman eleven in a game played at the Ward stadium in ansas City, Kansas. They made nineteen points and prevented our team from scoring. , . ,... . , , The Bears, growing desperate, defeated Rosedale High School by thirteen points on th latter's field, The contest, although otherwise not especially thrilling, will be long rememberedg not only -did it give Chris- man some much needed confidence, but Harder's long P11 ge 92 pass to Ettinger, who received it in the end zone, bor- dered on the sensational. Our second game with Kansas City Interscho- lastic League members was with Paseo, who were at that time tied with Northeast for first place. Led by Gilbert Daughtrey, who literally tore the ball from three would-be interceptors, thus completing a pass on our opponents' six yard line, Coach Huhn's boys accomplished the apparently impossible and beat the Pirates by one point, the score being seven to six. Interest ran exceptionally high immediately previous to the invasion of the conference- winning Liberty Blue Jays who beat the Chrisman Bears by sixteen points. It was in this game that Bill Harder kicked his thirty-five yard Held goal, thus giving Chrisman the honor of Our last pigskin event was with St. Joseph Benton. It was held on a muddy day at our home field. The Bears, by this time a highly efficient team, played their best game of the season and finished ahead of the visi- tors by a score of six to nothing, having outplayed them all the way through. Page 93 being the first team to score on Liberty during the 1934 season. Chrisman fans will long remember our game played in St. Joseph with Lafayette High School of that city. Scor- ing early in the first quarter, the Bears outplayed their op- ponents throughout the entire event only to be beaten by a touchdown scored on a seven- ty-five yard punt return. The score was seven to six. Our homecoming game was with Odessa, who boasted of a strong team which had been consistently winning games in their own confer- ence. The Bears outplayed the invaders after the inter- mission, overpowering them chiefly because of our deter- mination not to be defeated. The score was thirteen to seven. l l Basketball Memories When Coach Huhn gave his first call for basket- ball players, some seventy-five boys, many of them knowing very little concerning the more scientific game, turned out for practice. Within two weeks all but one third of the original squad had been care- fully weeded out. al ': rl 1 ll ll ,l ll l il l ll l 1 . il ii .4 li Il l ii ll i ,l I fl fl l ll Among the remaining boys were only two who had played on the successful Chrisman team of 1933-34. It was upon these two, Eddie Bracht and Lawrence Lynch, that the larger portion of early responsibility was placed. The rest, however, quickly shared this. The Bears' iirst game, after losing a pre-season con- test with the alumni, was with Central .High School of Kan- sas City. After four thrill quarters the Blue Eagles won by the extremely narrow mar- gin of two points. Following this were four more defeats given by members of the In- terscholastic League, one by Liberty, and one by the Ward Cyclones. The Kansas City' schools to which the Bears stubbornly bowed were Northf- east, Westport, Southwest, and Paseo. In each of these events other than with Northeast, the Bears were not beaten until the closing seconds of play. One victory was ac- counted for during this time of depression in a contest at Sedalia, Chrisman winning by eighteen points. ' l When Independence met Liberty for the second time, a rejuvenated quintet took the floor to overpower the latter by one point. In the return game with Ward the Bears, after the most spectacular exhibition of the entire season, defeated the Cyclones. The score of that contest was 23 to 21. Chrisman won their third successive victory at Sedalia, only to drop a thriller to the gal- loping Mustangs of Argentine, Kansas. The last two events of the regular playing season were striking victories over the Warrensburg training school, thus ending a fairly successful season. Page Q4 7 After finishing all scheduled games Coach Huhn entered his team in the district tourney, held at Inde- pendence February 28, March 1 and 2, in which some fifteen of the best teams in roundabout counties were placed. Chrisman's first game was with Liberty, whom they defeated by eighteen points. Beating Buckner and Peculiar, the Bears met Holt, a dark horse team, in the finals, winning the game by a score of 30 to 26, thus making themselves eligible for the playoff at Columbia, where they lost their game. In all they procured eleven victories out of twenty-two contests. The preliminary games at nearly all our contests i Our prospects for next year are more allurin than thos this year were played by the second teams of the two interlocking schools. At times these events proved to be almost as spectac- ular as the feature contests, even though the basketball shown was not so well devel- oped as that of the more ex- perienced players. The Bears' second team, composed of sophomores and juniors, won six of their twelve games, beating quin- tets from Central, Westport, Drum Farm, Argentine, Ward, and Liberty. Besides losing the return game with, the last two schools, they were de- feated by Northeast, South- west, Paseo, and Wyandotte, the latter being a post season contest. Probably the most interesting second team battle was with Westport, who lost by one point. g e for this. Although Harder, Bracht, Lynch, and Avery graduate this year, Ettinger, Christensen, Daughtrey, McDaniels, and Redford will be here to carry the blue and gold next season. Immediately supporting them Will be Don Harder, Price, Stearns, White, and Hanthorn. By using the experience gained through- out the past schedule, these boys should make diffi- cult opposition for any team. Barketball prospects appear bright at Chrisman. May luck be with us. Page 95 q lntra-Mural Athletics It is. the aim and desire of the Athletic department to make it possible for every boy to take part in some branch of athletics during his high school career, because of the valuable train- ing received from actual sport participation. The school teams have their place in the training and development of boys, but most of the boys who participate OH the Schobl teams do not actually need the physical training, and too, a very small number of boys is reached through the school teams 5 while in intra-mural competition all boys are looked upon alike and are given the same training and chance to participate. With these ideas in mind, all branches of sports are offered in the intra-mural program. The school year 1934-35 was a huge success both from the standpoint of number of partici- pants and wide variety of contests. In the fall baseball teams are organized and a schedule is arranged in the regular physi- ' cal education classes as Well as for A students not in scheduled classes. As soon as baseball is over, vol- ley ball teams are formed. This ex- cellent sport can be played equally well by all ages and participated in after a boy has finished school. In the inter-society league, the G.S.B.'s Won. The team was composed of Dudley Bailey, Joe Gibson, Harlan Soule, Lawrence Lynch, Kenneth Keown, and John Mohler. The sixth hour gym class won the first semester league 5 the second hour class won the second semester I league, and in the play of between SIXTH HOUR, Fmsr Semssren VOLLEY BALL CHAMPIONS W the two winners, the sixth hour first semester class won, after a very interesting contest. i The winning team members were Captain David Allen, Howard Warman, Edward Mc- 5 Daniels, George Stearns, Eugene Davies, Grover Redford, and H. Johnson. I In the physical education classes the boys are given a well rounded program, covering l games, exercises, mat work, and skills in order that all boys may have training for proper physical development. Much time is spent on form because if a boy learns how to do a ' thing well, he will get more enjoyment out of it. --- - Some time is spent on mat work. This is a very good form of exercise as it teaches grace, poise, coordination, and self assurance. . All boys, regardless of their ability, find some phase of the work appealing as well as beneficial to them. Page 96 1 Basketball is a very popular sportg hence a large basketball program was arranged. Two ' leagues were formed, one called the Independent League, the other called the Inter-Society League. This year games were played at noon, which proved to be very popular, as it gave a large number of students a chance to enjoy the games, as well as the players themselves. Some of the games were attended by as many as 500 students. This noonday basketball was carried on for several weeks, .with a total of about fifty games played. At the end of the season the annual class tournament was held, with each team playing each other team twice. This tournament was won by the juniors after a playoff with the sophomores, the seniors finishing in last place. In the spring an inter-society soft ball league was organized, composed of the following six teams: Athenians, G. S. B.'s, C Club, Bio-Ags, Independents, and Faculty. Each team played each other team twice. These games were played after school at the Campus and proved to be one of the most popular sports of the year. The annual inter-gym-class track meet was held at the athletic field. This proved very popular as well as educational because it takes care of the boys who are not on the school team. The annual inter-class track meet was also held, fpreceding the track seasonb , to determine the boys best fitted for the school team. The tennis tournament is an- other popular event, and annually about fifty boys determine the school championship. The annual ping-pong tourna- ment is always a huge success as about one hundred participate in this novel event which is played to large crowds in the gym. l l GYINI BASEBALL CHAMPIONS The Gym Letter Test for all boys in the gym classes proves to be one of the most popular events in the physical education department. A test composed of ten events is given to all boys in the gym classes. The ten events are pull ups, push ups, deep knee bends, shot puts, rope Climb, hlgh Jump, 10W hU1'd1eS, 315' yard run, 100-yard dash, and stand and jump. Records are kept on these events and points are given each boy 01? 3 basis of what he floes in each event. If he ties a record he receives 100 D01Hl3S: f01' bfeflklng 3 1'GC01fd, 200 P01T1'CS- A regular Chrisman letter is awarded to the boys making a high scoreg about twelve receive this award each year.

Bryant, formerly a physiology teacher at Junior High School. At the beginning of the fall term, it was necessary for several days to learn how to march single file, double file, and how to obey commands, as well as limbering stiffened muscles with various exercises. In the fall, the girls start out playing baseball. This continues as long as the weather permits. Occasionally the players go to the campus. ,From baseball, the pupils, go into volley ball, a less strenuous game, requiring more alertness and less use of energy. This game is played for several weeks, and is used as an intermediary between baseball and basketball. Dancing of various types comes next. The girls learn diff- erent folk dances, such as the Virginia Reel and Pop Goes the Weasel. Some clog or tap dancing is also done. . To prepare the pupils' muscles for the exercise needed to play basketball, a few days of soccer football is played. In this game it is necessary to be mentally and physically alert as well as being prepared to receive minor injuries unintentionally deliverd by somone who is kicking the ball. Probably the best liked of the sports is basketball. This game is played at the last of the fall semester. The playing time is limited to seven minutes, a three-minute rest intervening. Often one of the pupils will act as referee. Girls' basketball is not nearly as rough and ready a game as boys' basketball. In fact, many restraints are put into laws to prevent such ex- treme exercise. The game remains, however, the most strenuous of any which the girls play. This is the record of events for the fall semester. In the spring the order is reversed with two exceptions. As in the fall, exercises and drills come first in order to ad.'lL1S'C IHHSCIGS for hard work. Soccer football is played before basketball in order to prepare previously unemployed muscles for the strain inevitably received during this game. Each class is in every sport divided into a certain number of teams, these being two in basketball, soccer, and baseball, and four in volley ban- These teams Compete with each other for the class championship.

The purpose of this group is to encourage athletic activities, and to create a spirit of good sportsmanship In order to win a letter, a girl must be in perfect health, and she must be able to gain one thousand points, in which are included sport, posture, scholarship, sportsmanship, and service to the school. These are Missouri State requirements, therefore it is easy to see that a girl must be unusual in her athletic ability. This year the M girls have become a very progressive group. The club is composed of fifteen members, and at the end of the first semester this year seventeen new members earned enough points to admit them into the club, making a total of thirty-two members. With the initiation of the new members, given in the form of a party, the M Club became divided into two groups or teams, the M Club, seniors, and the M Club juniors. Although composed of, for the most part, girls who were not taking gym, the M Club participated in the intra-mural contest games in the three major sports, baseball, volley ball, and basketball. Nelle Davis was captain in baseball for the Senior M Club team and Edna For-d for the Junior M Club. In volley ball, Doris White and Marjorie Green captained the two teams respectively. In the most exciting sport of the three, basketball, Virginia Cook and Margaret Church were captains. Lively tournaments among class teams and the two M Club teams were held in the gym in each of these sports, which proved an exciting outlet for the girls' enjoyment. Chrisman C's were awarded to each girl on the winning team in each of the three sports. This is the first year that C's in athletics have been awarded to girls. An increased pleasure of the club was work in pyramid building and tumbling, This afforded practice in useful exercise and a lesson in the developmnt of graceful motions. Another interesting project in which the M Club took part was a field day exclusively for Chrisman girls 'in all types of athletics. Various members of the M Club acted as offi- t O ments in baseball tennis and other sports were held. Several clever stunts cials, and ourna , , were also presented by the girls. Field Day provided lasting fun and a beneficial attitude to those athletically inclined girls. The most outstanding activity of the club this year was the presentation of the M Club Frolic, December 4, in the auditorium. It was capably directed by Miss Ruth Bryant, and presented to an interested audience. This program consisted of a variety of one-act ' ' l 'd d it ro- plays, skits, and dances. With the aid of the gym classes the M C ub consi ere s p gram a successful climax for its WOI'k. E ' 11 does the M Club wish to express its appreciation to Miss Ruth M.

The championship game was played with the M Club as the winners. Those on the M Club team were Lorraine Hatch, Virginia Cook, Velma Jean Barnard, Le Ella Logue, Doris White, Orpha Linenbringer, Nelle Davis, Mary Catherine Yale, Catherine Thompson, and Nellie Thompson. The game proved an exciting one despite the score of 35-6. Hatch ' FOURTH HOUR BAs1u5'rBAi.1.

As a result, all girls playing on the winning team received at the awards assembly at the close of the year, a Chrisnian C with the basketball insignia on it. The captain, Virginia Cook, received a star on her HC. The M Clubs, as the winner of the first semester volley ball games, also, challenged the seventh hour girls who were champions of the class teams in second semester. The final game was played with the seventh hour winning the first game, 16-14, the M Club the sec- ond, 16-14 5 the seventh hour the last game, 15-9. The seventh hour team members were Chris- tine Kelly, Wanda Wallace, Virginia Davis, Vir- ginia Camp, Virginia Hunter, Llewellyn Brown- ing, Virginia Witthar, Virginia Hodges, Mavis Bishop, and Margaret Tudor, the captain. Q Page 100 Warrensburg Play Day A Saturday morning, October 13, 1934, Mar- tha Logan, Naomi Chrestensen, Helen Beattie, Lillian Vaughn, Mayme Holt, Dorothy Grout, Celeste Walters, Betty Rohrls, and Edna Ford met at William Chrisman and went to Warrens- burg to take part in the annual play-day spon- sored by the Missouri State Teachers' College. On arriving, they registered and were given meal tickets. Next they donned their play clothes and went to the gymnasium where they danced the Virginia Reel and the Minuet. The leader then announced the next event, a posture parade -in which the fifteen girls who had the best posture were awarded braided leather wristlets. Then all participated in an Indian dance by going through various odd motions. After the dance, the director called off Indian names, and the name each girl had on her meal ticket was the Indian tribe to which she belonged. Each tribe had a different colored head band, which made it a very colorful scene. ' Some of the morning, the girls played each of the following games: dodge ball, triangle ball, volley ball, and end ball, until a bugle blew an- nouncing a change of games. At noon the contestants went to the hotel and partook of a deli- cious Indian lunch. The place cards were made to represent hatchets, canoes, and tepees. The girls sang songsand listened to a talk by Dr. E. L. Hendricks, the president of the Warrensburg College. ' After this they returned to the gymnasium where every school gave Fmsr How CLASS BUILDING PYMMIDS a stunt, causing much amusement. Outdoors, relay games and baseball engaged the time. At the close of the day the spon- sors called the participants together, awarding the tribe with the greatest number of points a prize. The girls then called good-bye to their many new friends and returned home. Play Carnival at William Woods On Friday, April 26, Virginia Cook, Velma Jean Barnard, Jean Gillette, and Betty Mil- lard, accompanied by their gym teacher, Miss Bryant, started for Fulton, Missouri, to take part in the sixth annual Play Carnival sponsored by William Woods College.. There were two hundred girs present from forty high schools in the state, and every facility was turned over to the girls for use. The swim- ming pool was especially enjoyed by the girls.
