Under the building program that was made possible by the citizens of Ha s, on September 30, 1952, the additional classrooms, cafeteria and auditorium are fast becoming a reality. The High School of Tomorrow should be ready for use by September, 1954. Students and teachers do not build buildings. lt takes citizens interested in the education and welfare of youth. lt takes money raised by taxes. And taxes in this community come from the resources of The Good Earth. These resources are wheat, oil transportation and many other industries that have helped to build Hays into a community of which each citizen is proud. What- ever the business. the origin in this community springs from The Good Earth. With this thought in mind, the staff of '54 gives you a yearbook produced in photobrown to represent The Good Earth, from which came the money to produce and build buildings for adequate school facilities. 2 TABLE or CONTENTS ,ls ADMINISTRATION - ...,, ,.... . .

Dedication To Arthur Leas, the staff dedicates the 1954 INDIAN CALL. Better known to the entire student body as Art, the staff, proudly says, Thanks for helping the students of Hays High School maintain an attitude of sportsmanship in wins and defeats. Mr. Leas joined the local faculty in 1939 as physical education instructor and basketball coach. ln 1944, when Uncle Sam called him into the navy, he left a basketball team who in spite of difficulties went on to capture the state championship. ln 1946 Art returned to Hays to take up his schedule where he had left off. He has done his part, without much credit, in developing football and track teams as well as basketball. The safety program and traffic squad have had Art's close supervision for thirteen years. He has assumed this unglorified task sincerely and cheerfully. To you, Art, the '54 lNDlAN CALL staff wishes to say, You are appreciated on the Hays High faculty. 7 H.

Through the efforts of this group, building programs are promoted which keep pace with the rapid increase in enrollment that has been going on in the city of Hays. In September, 1952, the district voted S430 000 to be added to 520,000 in the building fund, for additions to Hays High School. The building was started in the spring of 1953 and will be completed for use in Septem- ber, 1954. The plans include an auditorium that seats 918 students, a cafeteria with an adequate kitchen, seven new classrooms and three shops-one for metal, one for agriculture and one for crafts. The two present shops are to be remodeled and made into one large shop for woodwork. Clyde U. Phillips, A. M Superintendent C. A.

In selecting a faculty for the Hays schools, the Board of Education endeavors to adhere to the policy that the school can be no better than its teachers. This policy recognizes that each teacher must be well trained for the assigned task. Faculty members, through the advisory group or- ganizations, assume counseling responsibilities as well as the teaching responsibilities. In this way the develop- ment of the student as a whole, rather than in part, be- comes the ultimate objective. All of the teachers in Hays belong to the National Education Association, as well as the state and local association. Mrs. Helen Hundley was president of the local association this year. She and Superintendent Phil- lips attended the National convention in Miami Beach and promoted bringing the NEA president, William A. Early, to a faculty dinner meeting on January 28. 12 Mrs. Helen Hundley, M, S, Mrs. Miriam Perry, M. S. Miss Doris! Starliper,iB.

Vocal Muslc Instrumental Music Hays High school attempts to maintain a well- balanced social program as well as a full curriculum. The facilities of the school are made available for club meetings, parties, school dances, athletic activities, music activities, and other school and community functions for promoting wholesome social conditions. Students are given a part in planning the constructive social program. Faculty members are advisors to the many above activi- ties. The members of the Junior-Senior High School Parent-Teacher Association sponsors an annual carnival in October as a money raising project which is used to aid in the financial support of the high school's activity program. It's the training in junior high vocal music un- der the direction of Melvin Bishop that develops volces for first-class senior high vocal groups. Elmer Holzrichter, B. F.

They kept the school halls and rooms spic and spang and in the spring, the trees, grass and flowers on the campus were kept looking their best. In the winter, when the snow flew, the janitors started work especially early to make the walks safe for walking. Who cleaned up after all school parties and carnivals? Answer-the janitors. They did a wonderful job of making the Hays High learning conditions more pleasant.

Hundreds View Spring Exhibit As the Junior-Senior Prom moved out, the third annual Spring Exhibit moved in. Surrounded by tall candy canes and ice cream mountains, the Industrial Arts, Met- al Shop and Creative Art classes displayed their projects. This year, the Klick Klub was invited to display their pictures at the same time. During the two days and nights that the show was open to the public, hun- dreds of parents and friends looked over the work.

Student Council ls Governing Body The student council has been the gov- erning body of Hays High School for about twenty years. They have preserved and promoted the traditions of the school, ap- proved the constitutions of all student or- ganizations, and attended the student council conferences at WaKeeney. The Carl Wells, student council president, was elected by preferential ballot in May of '53. representatives were elected each semes- ter this year from the senior high advisory groups. At their meetings, they acted upon suggestions that were put in the beef box. This year Carl Wells was presidentg Rodney Whitney, first vice president, Pat Moreland, second vice president, and Clyde W. Rothgeb acted as advisor. First row: D. Fellers, E. Binder, R. Law, B.

Within a short time each class member was sporting the unique ring which was chosen late in the junior year as the ring to represent the Class of '54. The undefeated '53 football squad was sparked by a number of senior boys who put in all their efforts to make a strong high school team. These boys were rewarded well. Many were honored by being voted to the league, state and All-American teams. ln early May, the senior class piled into buses and cars, and looked forward to a day of relaxa- tion and fun, far from the influence of studies, books and teachers. Miss Wilda Smith, Mrs. Flor- ence Rupp, Mel Bishop, Bob Blazer and Valis Rockwell, class sponsors, made the trip with the seniors. The Class of '54 was fortunate to have an exchange student from Holland as a classmate. Theo van Vorselen, American Field Student from The Hague, revealed a hidden talent in his ability to play American jazz music on the piano which he picked up during his stay in America. In his spare moments, Theo could be seen at the piano in the Recital Hall pounding out a recent jazz number. The membership of the class remained about the same throughout the high school years, even though a few former members dropped their education, students from other schools enrolled in the class made up for this loss. The class of '54 had only one vacant space left by a deceased member. Absent from the ranks was Victor Burgardt who departed from the midsts in March of 1952. Tests and studies were far in the past of the seniors at Baccaleaureate time on May 23, 1954. Since the completion of the new auditorium was a year late for the Class of '54, the commencement exercises were held in the gymnasium. As the Commencement speaker gave the seniors a word of advice before stepping onto the good earth, the Class of '54 reached the last rung of the ladder of secondary education by receiving their diplomas on May 27. 5 I l Maria Cherner James Casper Pl'6Sll'l6l1f Vice-President 24 New to the curriclilum of Hays High is senior English, a one-semester elective subject.

Much time and work was put in by members to make the prom a success. The prom was financed by the sale of refreshments at the concession stands during the football and basketball seasons. Toward the end of the year the juniors completed money-making projects by presenting the junior class play. Sponsors who directed and did much of the work were Mrs. Miriam Perry chairman, Harold Elder, Elmer Holzrichter, Miss Marie Brown and Miss Kathryn Ratzloff. Every junior had the opportunity to become a good Ameri- can citizen, because every junior was required to study Ameri- can historyg and, in keeping with the American way of educa- tion, every junior wrote a research theme in English Ill. mf me - if is s ssrs ef L. 5.45 d J J J fm ' iila.

Club Encourages Interest in Science The Hays High Science Club enjoyed its second year as an active member of the Science Clubs of America. Its twenty mem- bers met on the first and third Tuesdays of every month to work experiments, dis- cuss projects and hear speakers whose topics covered the various fields ef science. Since the Kansas Academy of Science met in Hays in the spring, many students entered projects. These projects involved rather extensive study on their specific interests in science. The purpose of the club was achieved in that much new scientific interest was stimulated and extraordinary students were given a chance outside of school to work experiments. Advisor for the club was Mr. Harold Elder and its elected officers were as fol- lows: John Nelson, president, Bob Wheel- er, vice president, Carolyn Sauer, secre- taryg Lee Grubb, t r e a s u r e r and Bill Rhoades, reporter. study' of electroplating, ' 'J ' ' restoration for her archaeological P1'0Ject.

Students Construct the '54 Indian Call Through the co-operative efforts of twenty-four seniors, Juniors and sopho- mores, the 1954 Indian Call was con- structed into a memory book for the stu- dents of Hays High. Under the direction of Miss Alta Behrens the eighth edition of the yearbook became a reality. The volunteer staff elected Pat More- land as editor and each then gave his time and effort wherever it was needed. Since the yearbook was backed by the senior class, Maria Cherner, president of the class, acted as business manager. The art work Was done by Ruth Kirtland. Marilyn Mermis was selected to be circulation' manager and, with the aid of a representa- tive from each first hour class, she sold over four hundred yearbooks in one week. Indian Call Week was climaxed with the crowning of the Indian Call Prince and Princess at the floor show of a dance on January 16. Workers on Indian Call Week: First row: M. Mermis, chairman, L.
