CROSS COUNTRY, SENIOR PICTURES, AND CAMERA CLUB With Coach Bud Overton holding the reins, the Kokomo Cross Country team galloped into fourth place in the North Central Conference standings. The thinlies opened the season in fine style by tromping Frankfort, 34 to 21. In their meet with Jeff of Lafayette, the hill and dale boys ended up on the long end of a 35 to 20 tally. Perfect season hopes were stifled by a fast and furious Marion team that trounced the Kats, 40 to 15. Wabash then stepped into the victor's shoes to defeat the Kokomoans, 33 to 22. Frank- fort, on the second try to defeat the Kats, was sent back again with clipped plumage which came from a 40 to 15 defeat. The squad placed fifth in the sectionals. An integral part of the Senior's life i's his high school graduation picture. Again this year Mr. Evart Adams did the honors, and matey, a mighty job did he do. A new club just formed in 1949 was the Camera Club, whose purpose was to create and stimulate further interest in ,photography in K. H. S. They had various activities during the year, and were advised by Mr. Fred Mustard and Mrs. Lena Coombes. The officers were jack Ricketts, president, Lila Hall, vice-president, Mary Ann Hamlin, secretary-treasurer, and Pep Newman, sergeant-at-arms. The Camera Club officers, Paul Newman, Lila Hall, Mary Ann Hamlin, and jack Ricketts, look over the pictures from the National Picture Contest. Page 23

S. this year after being for a period of years merely a HY club. The Hi-Y clubs were organized in the United States in 1889, but the Hi-Y was not organized in Kokomo until 1921. This first club formed in Kokomo had only nineteen members, and from this small organization of boys it has grown into four different clubs with nearly fifty members in each club. The outstanding purpose of the Hi-Y is Hto create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The most known feature of the Hi-Y's is, of course, the famous Hi'-Y pin, which for some peculiar reason was seen on almost as many girls as boys. Secon- dary to the fine purpose of the Hi-Y were the many social activities the Hi-Y
