lYar never fails to cause a change in the language department of every school. This year K. H. S. has witnessed the omission of French from the curriculum, ln keeping with the trend toward improved Latin- Anierican relations was the introduction of Spanish last year. Now two-year courses are of- fered in both Latin and Spanish. The customs, dress. and interests of a people are discussed in connec- tion with the language. Maps, movies, a n cl models provide a better understanding to create an interest in travel and g'eog'rz1pliy. XYar and other factors may change the lan- guages taught, but stu- dents will always meni- orize verb conjugations in some foreign tongue. Top: Miss Helen Railsbaclc, Miss Ruth Campbell, and Miss Emma Hill constitute the lan- guage faculty. Bottom: Latin classes study Caesar's campaigns. Page 23 LANGUAGE . . Y' .

Because of the high physical standards set by the armed forces, physi- cal education instructors faced the problem of building better bodies. As you in the boys' and girls' gym classes work- ed strenuously on the stall bars, played basket- ball and net games, scrambled up to the top of a swinging rope and then tried not to slide down. some of your friends were learning to swim and dive at the Y. M. C. .-X. swimming classes. For convenience and training in leadership, each class elected a stu- dent leader who reported the absentees and helped keep records. Much credit must be given to the instructors who were able to alter the physical program in K. H. S. to meet war- time needs. Top: Mr. Fritz Hawkins dis- cusses calisthenics with Mr. Ralph King and Miss Lyla Sill. Miss Miriam Danner, Miss lmoiean Hodson, Mr. Earl Ut- terback, and Mr. Raymond Trobaugh outline the physical education and health courses. Bottom: Rope climbing and workouts on the other equip- ment develop strength and stamina. Page 25 PHYSICAL EDUCATIQN
