PRACTICAL POLITICS The Purdue Legislature brought a new opportunity to the politicians of KHS. Modeled after the Indiana General Assembly, it consisted of boys and girls from the state high schools. Our delegates to the Legislature were elected by the Juniors and Senior classes last November under the di- rection of Miss Lilith Farlow. Ted Chandler received enough votes to become Senator, and Dean Grinstead, lilob Babb, Richard Lee, and Bill Elsea won seats in the House of Representatives. Their alternates were Stan Cripe, as Senator, and Jeannette Hahn, Ruth Lang, Dick Good, and Don Wyrick as Representatives. Attending sessions for two days, the group became further acquainted with the functions of our government. Their faculty advisor, Mr. Earl M. Utterback, gave them valuable pointers during the proceedings. Page 29

THE GUIDINC5 LIGHTS To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian char- acter is the purpose of the Hi-Y, as stated in the con! stitution. Tlierefore, it comes as no great surprise that many of the members of this organization inevitably prove to be the leaders in KHS. Orgziiiizecl in 1921, the Hi-Y now has four clubs of approximately 50 members each. Social activities are always included in their annual programs. lfxamples were the aftei'-game dances, the lllystery Ramble, Murder on the Hardwood. the annual llifY conference for llistriet lfour, and a banquet for the members. Civically, the Hi-Y donated food to needy families ai Tlianlisgiviiig and Christmas and participated in the sportsmanship cainpaign. For the boys who worked on these projects. the spirit ot' co-operation was a reality.
