Board of Education Behind every well regulated organization there is always something responsible for its success. Our public schoolsare no ex- ception. The faculty, principals, and superin- tendent all deserve unlimited credit, but we should not forget the Board of Education. All the members of the Board give gener- ously of their time, ability, and energy in formulating and regulating the policies of Kane High. There are probably some who do not know the members of our Board. Don't you think it's about time to get acquainted? Here they are: Mr. lohn V. Longshore, who is em- ployed in the office of Holgate Brothers Fac- tory, Mr. Clarence E. Cornes, manager of the A. and P. Store, Mr. Ioseph Harre, news editor of the Kane Republican, Dr. Charles E. Cleland, a prominent local physician, Bev. Clarence A. Leslie, pastor of the Luth- eran Church, Mr. Gordon P. Hadfield, owner of Hadfield's Monument Works, Mr. Henry Hennell, co-owner of the Hub Shoe Store. We wish to pay special tribute to two men who gave many years of service to our schools. Mr. Frederick Kime served on the Board for forty-five years, and Dr. Karl E. Wenk gave twenty-five years of service. Vile, the students of Kane High, want the Board to know that we do appreciate their untiring efforts in our behalf. May we all work together for our common good. Miss THELMA BLooM MRS. MARGARET DR.

141 Kane Almost everyone turned green with envy as we watched the drivers training class walk out of school into a shiny new car. They backed up, they turned, they stopped and shifted gears. They learned signs and rules until they were blue. But it was worth it, for at last they took the testeand passed! All the boys went to shop sooner or later and had themselves a good time. They turned out all sorts of beautiful furniture, or plastic jobs for their girls, and some even made English projects there, The whine of a saw and the smell of sawdust and glue were continual reminders of this happy home . Come on, let's do it right Mort gives out with shop advice Home-ec girls love to cook Nice car, nice driver, nice picture Let's see, now, where's l.. ? Next to sales or I. B. T. where kids man- aged to learn how to sell. Of course it in- cluded all phases of business--buying, sell- ing, retailing and correct methods. They al- ways seemed to acquire the abililty of how not to do it too. At last eighth period camel Naturally it was the favorite 'cause it was the last. We tried to concentrate on geometric prop- ositions or the pros and cons of universal military training or sat and dreamed out a study hall window. Three o'clock came with dismissal and 'there was bedlam at each in- dividual locker. Where's my umbrella? Are you never going to clean this locker out? l'm afraid to open the door! Practice tonight, Tom, don't forget. Hey, you going up town or are you staying for intramurals? The three orange buses pulled up out front and were soon filled with noisy kids. The halls were congested with hurrying stu- dents, the gym crowded with sports addicts, outside there was shouting, laughter, and general noise. By four o'clock alinost everyone was gone and our big school was quiet. Here and there voices rang out, but as the last bell rang at five, only the janitor remained to hear his footsteps echo on the stairs.

GLENNIS H. RICKERT Superintendent So the HURRI-KANE of l948 admits that it is a diaryl Webster defines a diary as a record of daily events. The HURRI-KANE should be a fascinating journal of your ac- tivities during your senior year. Have you ever kept a diary? lt can be very interesting. l have seen many diaries kept by both individuals and families, di- aries that became richer and more impor- tant to them with each passing year. How often these were opened so that compari- sons might be made between the events of today and those of some day long since past. Details cannot always be recalled as ex- actly as one might wish. But if an event is recorded, it can be easily verified forever. lust now as this is written we are excited about the Western Pennsylvania Basketball Championship game. To reach this game our team won two very exciting games: one against East Brady at Brookville, the second against Mercer at Oil City. lf you have writ- ten in your diary the thrill of our third quar- ter drive at Brookville or the exhaustive ex- citement of the last three minutes of the game at Oil City, you will always be able to refer to them and refresh your memory. Each reading will renew all the throbs, in- terest, concern, tension, relief and exaltation. x ln a broad sense each of us is a living diary, for each of us is the sum-total of all the day-to-day experiences we have had. Little or big, monotonous or exciting, good or bad, in school or out, at home or play, each happening has its little space and there writes a record for the future. Sincerely, GLENNIS H. RICKERT
