Enferprising Juniors Sei' Pace Wifh Play and Prom lllarehing up the steps of K.ll.S last September for the beginning of their term were N98 eager, happy juniors with an eye for fun and a desire for knowledge. lixeite- ment was their motto and they planned to have plenty of it. Uesiring competent mem- bers to lead them over the bumps through- out the year, they chose Vivian Lock. presi- dent: lihner Anderson, to aid him as vice president: and john Burns, as secretary, to keep an accurate account of their interest- ing adventures. Members of the junior class sold candy at the tournament games and after school and did many things to raise money for a suc- cessful prom for their upperclassman friends. the seniors. .-Xll their money-raising schemes were not meager. however. as they presented on November l7 an outstanding comedy, which made a record in K.H.S. as having a larger attendance than any other junior l l Twenty j play previously presented. The plot of The Hoosier Schoolmasterf' an adaptation of Eggleston's novel, centered around back- woods characters of Indiana in the period of 1870 and was directed by Miss Pauline Tull. The prom, on which the class worked so hard, remained a mystery to the seniors for some time, but when finally presented, it won whole-hearted admiration. The King and Queen of the prom were elected by the guests and crowned by last year's royalty, Dorothy Rex and 'William Rogers. This, the biggest social event of the year, was pre- sented May lS. with a unique background for the dancers. The class sponsors, Miss 'Rosetta Gernon, lllr. Keith Smith, Miss Marie Beardslee, and Miss Sara Larson guided the class of '40 through the year with expert hands. Juniors, ROOM 113 Back Row: McHenry Brumitt.

The sophomores, 26-l strong. elected Thomas Ciineris, president: Ray .'Xnderson, vice presidentg and Lois Kunde, secretary. Holding to K. H. S. tradition, the class pre- sented the Thanksgiving assembly, a color- ful pantomime of Hiawatha. This up and coming group also gave a pep assembly for the return game with Chicago Heights. :Xt the beginning of the second semester. the class registration stood at 23-l. l.ast year, when these sophomores were freshies, they really stepped out in school activities, giving two assemblies for fresh- men only. ln March, a popularity contest was held with honors going to Lawrence Chappie Alberts and Betty llower. The class sponsors are Miss ,-Xris Moffet. Miss Shirley lelfers, Miss l,ula Martin, and Mr. lfugene Dykstra. l TWBf1lLy-LWO This year, the freshmen, with a September registration of 358, placed Rex Dusenbury, Bonnie jean Rogers, and Betty LaBeau in command of their class.

Richard Piersol lead the games for the frosh, who were later enter- tained by dancing and by a floor show fea- turing songs by aloe LaRocque, a harmonica solo by Clarence Holtz, dances by Kathryn Hill, and cheerleading by Peter Azzarelli.
