F. H. A. is the national organization of girls studying homemaking in High Schools. As an integral part of the homemaking program, F. H. A. provides opportunities for students to have additional experiences in planning and carrying out activities related to homemaking. Any student enrolled in High School who is taking or has taken a homemaking course may become a member. Membership is voluntary. Our organization has taken part in activities such as Christmas caroling, trick or treating for UNICEF, etc. F.F.A. The F. F. A. is an extracurricular activity having its origin and root in a definite part of the school curricu- lum - vocational agriculture. Among other things, members learn through active participation how to conduct and take part in a public meeting; to speak in public; to buy and sell cooperatively; to solve their own problems; to finance themselves; and to assume civic responsibility. The foundation upon which the Future Farmers of America organization is built, includes leadership and character development, sportsmanship, cooperation, serv- ice, thrift, scholarship, improved agriculture, organized recreation, citizenship and patriotism. KAYS The six objectives of the Kays are represented by the sides of the insignia. These objectives are: religion, personality, leadership, service, appreciation and recreation. In the local club meetings, conferences, and summer camp, students are urged to attend the church of their choice and to present programs on high ideals and character building for their membership. Among the accomplishments of the organization is a penny line” for the American Cancer Society and the distribution of March of Dimes material to Inman merchants. KAYETTES Kayettes is primarily a service club but is also a social club. It emphasizes the three areas of school, com- munity, and world. It is open to all girls in high school. Its purpose is to develop responsibility and personality. Some of the things our Kayette group has done this year are: March of Dimes drive, hayrack ride, etc. PEP CLUB Yell louder, wear your uniforms. The Pep Club has heard these words many times during the 1962-63 football and basketball seasons. All the members have been very co-operative. They have helped with the decorations for homecomings and helped whenever help was needed. We can now say with pride, We are the best Pep Club in the League. Dene Plett was the Pep Club President, and did a very fine job for the Club and the School.

THE GIRLS IN 509” Presented by the Junior Class When the hotel management decides to remodel a hotel, two hermit ladies (being staunch republicans) are found in a back suite, because they have vowed to stay se- cluded until that man gets out of the White House, (meaning F. D. R.) A college professor, who everyone thinks is a journalist, decides to find out what it is all about. With his help they retain their independence when unheard of wealth pours on them and they move to the Waldorf- Astoria.

Seniors '63 We're the best there will ever be! In 1973, we find the Class of '63 in a great variety of vocations. All of the girls and all but three of the boys have embarked on the sea of matrimony. Now for a closer look------------ Ron Klassen graduated from college with a major in foreign languages, which he now teaches on the sec- ondary level. During his free summer months he dabbles in amateur theatricals. One of our '63 Seniors has given up a business career to spend her time as a housewife and let hubby earn the living as an ac- countant. Shirley and Irvin have made themselves at home in a ranch style home outside of Hutchinson. Dennis Ratzlaff has made his mark in the business world. To add a little spice to his life, he and his wife are house parents at an exclusive girls school. Doris Ann is now happily married to a young man who enjoys sports and fishing. They are living at the beautiful resort area near Lake Inman where Doris Ann is employed as a nurse. A high school student may easily be influenced by high school classes, and such is true of Robert Brunk. He is now teaching several classes of history in a small high school in Nevada. Sheryl Weins serves as sec- retary to an important cof- fee exporter from Brazil. Incidentally the VIP is also her husband. Jeannine is employed by the Pillsbury people in sunny Florida as a nutrition expert. Her latest project includes devising a food plan for astronauts. Gary Brauer hired out to the State of Nevada with his pack of dogs to eradicate the coyotes He reports a salary of $25, 000. It took us some time to find Lynn Hostet- ler. He is working out of Kansas City as an undercover agent for the FBI. Ruth Cook gained a degree as an elementary school teacher. She and her husband and their four children make their home in Dallas, Texas. We always knew she had a way with kids. Jim Lambert's speaking experience and leadership qualities led him into the ministry. He is now the pastor of a large congregation in St. Louis, Missouri. Rachel Heidebrecht has pursued a career in Psychology. When she last returned to Inman she told of her experiences as a school psychologist in one of New York's largest schools. Robert Neufeldt entered the science field. His most recent project is to transfer the magnetic energy from the North pole to the South pole. The former Lila Johnson cut short her college education to become a full time housewife and mother. She and her husband are living on a large farm raising crops and livestock. Paul Thiessen received a degree in Horticulture. He now owns and operates Hutchinson Floral, and reports a thriving business. Vivian Becker graduated from K-State with a major in Home Economics. She and her husband are near Rapid City, South Dakota, where she is employed as a food demonstrator. living on a cattle ranch Wes Esau graduated from Mr. Kimble’s welding school and he is a T. V. antenna repairman on the moon. Leon Pauls decided to stay in amateur athletics. He is the coach of the 1973 Olympic Basketball Team. Best wishes. Leon. We always knew Joann Schrag would be a success. She is now a Doctor of Philosophy at Yale University. She is also writing an advice column for a local newspaper. Ronnie Balzer owns the Quarter Dollar Angus Ranch and showed the Champion Bull at the Chicago International Livestock Show last fall. Danny Ely is in the blubber business. He is Cap- tain of a whaling fleet off Newfound- land. In her high school days Doris Wiens always had an answer for every question. Besides being an efficient housewife she has now replaced Emily Post as the well known writer of books on etiquette. Jerry Willems spends a lot of time away from his home in Oklahoma as he is a travel- ing sales- man for ladies' cosmetics. Eugene Buller graduated from cooking school and is now Mess Hall Supervisor for the National Guard at Poughkeepsie, New York. Miriam and Paul have settled down to a life of ease in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Paul is an in- dustrial arts teacher in a Jr. High and Mim supplements the income by being a part time recep- tionist for a local dentist. Fred Goering owns a sheep ranch in Montana. He is also a famous sheep judge and attends many of the well known livestock shows. Rojean Franz, now Mrs. Loren Loucks, is at home in Greenwich Village where she has a high- paying job as an art instructor. Because their other home has become too small, Loren is now busy building a new home in the French Provincial style. Clyde Regehr headed into a career of astronomy. He is presently predicting weather by the stars from his headquarters in Nome, Alaska. Bill Wiegand replaced A1 Orter in Olympic discus throw. He is now on a tour of South America selling yoyos and making a fortune. Ilene Plett was an excellent Pep Club President for IRHS and she is now the Pep Club Sponsor in a large high school in Colorado, where she is also teaching Home Economics. IRHS RECEIVES NEW SCIENCE EQUIPMENT School Patrons Crowd in to See School Improvement Added Interest in Science Courses The 1963-1964 school year brought several changes to our Inman High School. One of the major areas of improve- ment was the construction of our new science room and lab. Also- much needed and very much appreciated were the new supplies and equipment that were installed. With this new room and equipment, and the very capable teachers we have, we hope that we can send some students into the world with a better chance of success than they would have had with- out these improvements. Our parents and friends were quite intrigued and pleased when they visited this addition to our school during our open house, January 22, 1963. This is the beginning— New floor has been poured, special plumbing installed, and some cabinets in place as our new room begins to take shape. Keep your mind on your work, Rachel, you might get your hand in a Bunsen burner. TAYLOR PUBLISHING COMPANY TM • b,l Ovtoetl A.. Well, Hene, what do you think will happen?
