Student Statistician Goes to Work on Roll of Letter Distribution

B-Lieve it or not, of the 898 stu­dents enrolled in Coffeyville senior high, 137 of their last names be­gin with a "B." The next highest letter is "S" with 9e names.

Four letters have been found to have no representatives. These are Q, U, X and Z;

The M's and Me's together have 85, the Me's contributing 17 of these.

The only other outstanding let­ters are "H" with 75 and "W" with 62.

"I" and "V" each have but four supporters while "Y" has five.

Further survey shows that there are 21 Smiths in school (22 count­ing the girlil' .gym teacher). There are none with identical names, the closest being Gerald and Geraldine, who are no relation.

The Smiths also have a few Biblical representatives as Moses and Naomi (Smith) enrolled in school.

So what!

DRUM CORPS WILL CLOSE YEAR'S WORK

ON LAST BROADCAST

The drum and bugle corps will complete another successful year by presenting the last school broad­cast on May 19. Plans for the presentation of a drill at the open­ing of the industrial softball league have been made. _

Most important to the girls in the group was the announcement of the committee comiposed of Mar­jorie Myers, Anita Reiter, Eloise Black, Jill Ann Winters, Mr. Klotz, and Miss McFerren who will have charge of selecting a new uniform for the club.

This selection will be recom­mended to Superintendent McFar­land and members of the board of education.

Comedy Runs High in Senior Play Hit

"Dollars to Doughnuts" Is Climax to Successful Dramatic Year

for Field Kindley.

Comedy of the lightest vein reigned supreme Tuesday night when the class of 1936 entertained a responsive audience at the laugh ·fest of the season, "Dollars to Doughnuts."

The work of the character play­ers was especially commendable and the whole cast succeeded in m~king the most of intriguing situations and clever lines.

Proceeds from the play will go to the class treasury to pay ex­penses of the yearbook, class gift and miscellaneous items.

"Dollars to Doughnuts" was the final presentation of a standout year of dramatic l'roductions for Field Kindley high school. More interest has been manifest and greater proceeds derived from plays than for several years, it is reported.

Spectators View of 3,500 Pupils

Three thousand, five hundred school pupils in a colorful pageant performed on a massive scale drew a capacity crowd of parents and guest spectators to the Field Kindley bleachers early Monday evening.

After the opening Grand March and flag ceremony, 180 ~tecond and third graders dressed in gay clown suits set the pace for the "Toyland" demonstration by their lively Jack­in-the-Box capers.

The Jacks and Jills of the fourth grade, in pastel costumes and with white water pails made an effec­tive picture, nothwithstanding that the field was a bit level for the "broken crown" episode.

The six ringed performance was continued by fifth and sixth grad­ers-108 boys first partaking in the forming of pyramids. Then ,floppy sunbonnets and big straw hats added to the general amuse­ment caused by the Virginia ·Reel. Effecting the :mpst unusual note of the entire evening was the bicycle drill, 150 children dressed in white and shiny red and mounted \ on wheels decorated in the same colors taking part in this spectacular event.

Next, 250 junior high school gymnasts demonstrated their skill in rope jumping.

The "corn-row" formation of 1,600 students .in a mass drill of physical exercises attracted espec .. ial admiration.

Senior high school boys furth­ered the· circus by grouping on the field to include boxing, fencing, ping pong, and apparatus sports.

Then followed the Ghost Walk performed bq 153 high school girls dressed in fly-away ghost cos­tumes.

Reassemblage of all groups for retreat and taps was the closing gesture of the evening's program.

It is reported that 'Miss Hoover said in one of her classes lately: "Some whispering goes on in audi­ences whether it's high school as­sembly or a civilized . audience."

Commencement activities of the 1936 graduating class will begin Sunday', May 17, when the Rev. R. Ernest Gordon will be the speaker at baccalaureate services.

Following this event will be the annual class day exercises with the class chapel to be held on Monday, May 18. · At this chapel seniors will present their will, prophecy, history, and other outstanding achievements of various members of their class.

All seniors whose work is com­plete will be excused from their classes after Wednesday, May 20.

Commencement and presentation ·Of diplomas will be Wednesday evening. Dr. Harold C'ase, pastor of the First Methodist Church of Topeka, will be the speaker at the Commencement exercises.

Day's School Services Cost 57c Per Child

Fifty-seven cents is the ; sum spent for all the services rendered in educating one child for one day in the United States.

Thirty-three .~ents goes for the purpose of paying the services of the teacher, supervisor, and other principals. This makes it possible to employ 893,000 teachers, prin­cipals and supervisors.

Seven cents is applied on the up­keep of buildings including light­ing, heating, and repairs.

An additional five cents makes it possible to erect new buildings.

Interest on money borrowed for the purpose of new buildings takes another five cents.

Three cents provides all special servi<;es including nurses, doctors, school libraries and transportation.

Two cents for text books and supplies and another two cents. for superintendents, s t a. t e boards, county and city superintendents brings the total to fifty-seven cents spent daily ·On each child's education.

Plattner IsS. E. K. Tennis Champion

By defeating Martin in the finals, 6-2, 4-6, 6-2, Vernon Plattner, Cof­feyville high No. 1 tennis player, won the S. E. K. singles champion­ship at Independence last Satur­day. Charles Martin, runner-up, also is from Coffeyville.

The Tornado's doubles team, composed of Singleton and Hamlet, was defeated in the semi-finals, 7-5, 6-8, 6-8, by Lionhard and Peterson of Fort Sco\t, who be­came doubles champions by defeat­ing Independence doubles team.

PATRI SAYS· MORE UNDERSTANDING IS NEEDED BY STUDENTS

Angelo Patri, writer ' and child psychologist, suggests that teach­ers "cut down the talking and in­crease the understanding." He does not point out how und~rstanding is to be increased except through talk­ing on the part of the instructor, however.

"Some teachers talk so much ·at the start of the lesson that they fail to reaeh the lesson and the pe­riod passes with nothing done," Patri says. Perhaps, as another commentator puts it, the lesson is considerably less important than the truths learned in those prelim­inary remarks.

Knapp, Plattner, Black, Mohler, and England to Shoulder Re­

spo!llsibilities.

YEARBOOK IS INCLUDED

Services of Journalism Depart­ment May Be Expanded with

Larger Group Next Year

An executive staff with respon­sibilities for student publications o.f what ever nature might be pro­duced by the journalism depart­ment of Field Kindley high school next year was named today. The students and their tentative as­signments are: Charles Knapp, managing editor; Vernon Plattner. business manager; Eloise Black, news editor; Charles Mohler, ad­vertising manager; and Ruby Eng­land, literary editor.

Other journalism students will be given S,Pecial jobs as the occa­sion demands, J. H. Hedley, jour­n a I i s m instructor, announced. There probably will be a rotation of responsibilities during the year.

If the production of the year hook is made a project of the jour­nalism class, as is now planned, the above named group will shoul­der the responsibilities for its pub­lication, as well as for other publi­cations during the year.

Although no definite plans have been made, its is believed that the advisability .of increased funds and a larger, advance-planned staff or­ganization will make possible an extension of the services of the journalism department next year.

Affiliation with the Quill and Scroll, national honorary society for high school journalists, and the National Scholastic Press Associa­tion, probably will be effected dur­ing the 1936-37 term.

Purple C Will Be Issued Class Day

The Purple C, magazine of the year's activities, will be available for distribution on class day, May 18, according to The Coffeyville Journal, printers of the book. Stu­dents with activity tickets paid in full may receive their books on that day.

--------Beautification Project

Is Showing Results

Laying foundations for a lovelier school setting, the project of re­landscaping the school lawn is progressing rapidly. Already, re­setting of the forsythia and spirea shrubs against the south side of the junior high school building and the new shrubs planted in walk corners has made great improve­ment. The latter should · aid in keeping students off the lawn so that grass can be sown--and grown.

G. A. A. NOTES. Coffeyville was awarded first

place in stunts at the annual play­day held at the University of Kan­sas, April 26. Approximately 125 representatives from various high schools of the state 10f Kansas took part in the annual event.

After lunch each team presented stunts, Coffeyvifle placing first.

Then followed selection of the posture queen. Betty Jane Doer­ing of Coffeyville was chosen to receive this honor.

Next on the program came the Challenge Hour, the girls partici­pating in various sports. Betty Jane Doering · and Mercedes Cos­Ier, Coffeyville students, were members of the winning Challenge Hour team.

The schools that sent represent­atives were: Lawrence, Holton, Ot­tawa, Tonganoxie, Wyandote, Nor­tonville, Winchester, Rosedale and Coffeyville.

Varied Contests Have Offered Than 200 Boys Interested

in Physical Games.

Last fall Director Jimmie Le Clere inaugurated what has proved to be a successful intra-mural pro_. gram for Field Kindley boys. In­stead of requesting teachers to di­rect the teams, as had been done in the past, captains were elected to fill this capacity. The success of the new system forecasts t~at the plan probably will be followed hereafter.

The purpose of intra-murals in­cludes not only recreation, but is designed for building up and exercising the bodies <>f those who partake in the games.

During the past year approxi­mately 225 boys have been included · n the various sports.

The year's program began when approximately 160 boys met and organized for softball. Art Y<>nk­ers• was elected student manager and the f<>llowing boys were elected captains: B. Singleton, R. Nicholas, B. Whitmore, S. Thompson, M. Kallenberger, J. Green, J. Whit­more and 0. Evans. Each captain chose his players and the teams each played a 7-game schedule. M. Kallenberger's team defeated all opposition and at the end of the season had seven c<>nsecutive vic­tories. The final standings were: Team Won Lost Pet. M. Kallenberger ............ 7 0 1.000 0. Evans ........................ 5 2 . 713 J . Green .......................... 5 2 .713 J. Whitmore .................. 3 4 .426 S. Thompson .................. 3 4 .426 R. Nicholas .................... 2 5 .284 B. Whitmore .................. 2 5 .284 B. Singleton .................... ! 6 .142

The boys next reorganized for basketball. Around 150 boys met and elected Jess Samuels student manager and the following cap­tains: A. Yonkers, H. Ehart, J.

Davies, E. Pitts, T. Gordon, M. Kallenberger, E. Thomas, C. Knapp, A. Ransom, K. Jackson, B. Whitmore and C. McCormick. Two 6-team leagues were formed and each team played a 5-game sched­ule. In the noon league H. Ehart breezed through his schedule un­defeated while A. Yonkers did the same in the evening league. These teams then played for the cham­pionship and H. Ehart won.
