Plannin the future You Design Your life By Pat McDaniel With the Help of Books and Tests You know how easy it is to dream and hope for the future and yet never quite get around to doing something about those dreams. You re- call. perhaps, how someone interested in you has at some time tried to help you put a foun- dation under that dream castle and how you usually appreciated it. It gives you a pleasant feeling to know that the teachers in this school are here not just to give you assignments, correct them. and re- turn them: that they are here to help you as an individual, to guide you. to answer your questions, and to talk over with you. personal ditficulties in school, obstacles affecting your future, and outside hindrances. To your advantage the guidance committee worked out in advance a complete program for the school year, and you have felt the need of such a program. One hundred eighty- five seniors answered in a questionnaire this query: Do you wish to discuss your problems with someone? Ninety-eight per cent an- swered, Yes Everyone, at some time or other, will have some small happening stick with him and per- haps cause a change in his personality that will give llllll a chance to be of service to his world. For some of you, perhaps, there has occurred this year that one small incident which changed your frame of mind and point of view. During your stay in high school you realized how advantageous it was for you to have at your disposal a guidance program: but wheth- er or not you accepted the advantages was entirely up to you. The programs were care- fully made out not only to assist you in choos- ing a vocation, but to guide you emotionally and to help you through your future years in school and out. Page 9 1 .

Wlould you rememher to say that Mr, lrying lllunson, your tall and good-humored superintendent, wrote for a national educational magazine and was in demand as a speakerg that he gave aptitude, vocational. and I. Q. tests for your good as well as your instructors': that. although he had many demanding duties, he came fre- quently into your classes, greeting you with his hig. booming voice and listening to your recitations? Xllould you remember that he always had time to talk with you and to answer your questions directly and to the D pointt llfhat would you say ahout Mr. lil Y. Allison, your steadfast and efficient principal? XYould you remem- lmer that when you got to know him you found that he was firm hut understanding: that he was a helieyer in the theory that there are some good qualities in every student: that he could logically explain a situation to you when you were wrong hut thought you were right?

Page 11 Page You Create With Hands And Minds ll'hen you entered school, you couldn't de- cide what you wanted to flo---work xvith books or work with your hands. You considered the subjects offered and began studying them. Math, science, bookkeeping, lan.guage--all would require many hours with books to be understood thoroughly. You looked at the opportunities of art home economics, manual training, typing, stenog- raphy. Then, as you looked at yourself. you asked, For what subjects am I best equipped? VVhich can I do best-use mv. hands or use my niind?' , . USING THEIR MINDS. Top: Working with words-Tetrault, Balthazar, and Simp- son in Room 207.

Il's a Pleasure to Draw There is something more to artistic develop- ment than just painting an emotion or thought to be hung in the art galleries of the world. During the course of a day you notice many beautiful objects-landscape, machinery, or just plain folks, and, if you are an art stu- dent, you observe these things from an appre- ciative standpoint. You are able to canvas your thoughts by your method of expression. With this idea in mind, the students enrolled in the art classes. Thev did not attempt to pro- duce masterpieces, but rather sought to gain an enjoyment of expression all their own. The first job of an art student this year was pencil sketching. Drawing outdoor scenes was ideal the first weeks of school. Then, when the breezes became chilly, it was back to the classroom to study water coloring, which at first seemed very difficult, since the selection of colors required a great deal of judgment. To broaden knowledge of the masterpieces of the past, some time was devoted to the study of the lives of famous European artists. Atten- tion was also given to poster painting. 12 By Roland Lang Usually, students register for only one year. For those who wish to continue, more advanced work is offered, including wood painting, metal tapping. and oil painting. Architectural paint- ing is available for four-vear students. A course connected with the art class is mechanical drawing, a vocational subject also taught by Mrs. Hattie Bell Dapron. The activities of the Franklyn Booth Art Club were coupled closely with classroom work. All art students participated in the American Legion Poppy Contest in the fall, and later they entered the poster contest sponsored by the Woman's Club. In between such activities, the club found time to have social atfairs. The animal picnic was held in the fall.

A. A. This organization has been active in K. H. S. for fourteen years and still interests sports-minded, fun-loving girls. This year the club's first task was that of choosing officers and board members. Mona Ray Mann was chosen as president, Marjorie Hollister as vice-president, Darlene Lockwood as treasurer. The board consists of the man- agers of various sports. Hockey was man- aged by Marge Hollister, basketball by Betty Siefert and Naomi Peters, archery by Doreen Larrigan and Virginia Reetz, tumbling by Darlene Lockwood and Bernice Nyhuis, volley- ball by Leona Millon and Norma jean Davis. while noon-hour activities were taken care of by Rebecca Fisher and Carol Stewart. September 28 marked the date when K. H. S. played host to a State League playday with 28 schools represented. Santa Claus, alias Melba Stella. was the main attraction at the Christmas party in the cafeteria. After a sumptuous banquet and dis- tribution of gifts, the girls attended the Brad- ley-KKK basketball game in the gym. Combining with the Girl Reserves. the G. A. A. gave a skating party at the roller rink. The huge crowd and gala spirit was proof of its success. As a special feature for G. A. A. members, the MG. A. A. News, a sports paper. was edited and published. Betty Siefert and Eleanor Yohnka served as editors. From january 13 to 18 the G. A. A. spon- sored a Posture lVeek. A squad of posture It's left arm straight, right arm back, as Vida. Richey, Bernice Ragain, Ruth Christensen, Jacqueline Jaffe, and Pat McMullen are ready to hit the bullseye. Al- though archery is a comparatively new sport at K. H. S., many students are interested in it and it is a regu- lar feature of the girls' gym classes. police, consisting of Georgia Trombley, May- belle Neuman, Dorothy Provot, Mona Ray Mann. Naomi Peters, Leona Millon, and Eleanor Yohnka, handed out blue and yellow posture tags. Verna Davis and Marilyn Palinskee were the winners in the contest for the best poster carrying out the good posture idea. To give parents a chance to witness the girls' athletic prowess, a gym exhibit, directed by Miss Anne Nichols, was held on March 27. Pyramids, tumbling, basketball, and folk danc- ing entertained and amused. Mixed volleyball teams, with 100 boys and girls from twelve llOll1CI'O0I1lS taking part, were organized. North Study was the winner of the tournament which was held. Doreen Larrigan, Lenora Kidd, Betty Siefert, Mona Ray Mann, Rebecca Fisher, and Leona Millon earned their 1600 point awardszand joan Bonser. Marjorie Hollister, Virginia Reetz.

QP- QD .- They're Uff---Through field And Stream By James McNulty ixlllltjllgll you may not have attended any meets. you were probably aware that a cross- country team was formed under the guidance of Assistant Principal Ray Harris during the early part of the school year. 'lihe boys failed to win any races: but, after losing to Roose- velt High of Chicago at the beginning of the season by the score of 50-15. they improved to such an extent that they came within four points of defeating' Lowell. You were probably present in the assembly when Mr. l-larris presented major letters to Clarence lialthazor and Lawrence Trumble and gave minor emblems to lilmer Bailey, Vivian l'rice. and lfddie Reno. As you may have noticed, four of the five lettermen were sophomores, a fact which should mean that the Kays will have a fair team next year. The squad will be handi- capped. however, by the loss of lialthazor, who took many seconds and ran the mile and one- half in 7:32 against Lowell. ln the aquatic field. Mr. Henry lfroula, sci- ence teacher, revived the Maroon swimming llg 'l'C 'lIlUli 'ind moulded a team of freshmen Z., bn 1 CROSS COUNTRY-Clarence Balthazor, Vivian Price, and Edward Reno are on their marks as members of Kankake High's first cross country track team. and sophomores who should bring' honors to Kankakee in the future. You may have seen the freshmen. led by Charles lilkins, defeat the upperclassmen by the score of 25 to 23. Later you learned that lflkins took the only first of the season for K. H. S. As Mr. Froula issued statements about the squad, you learned that jim john- ston was the hardest worker on the team and should win honors next season. Others whom you connected with the new team were john Zaring, Ray Szozda. Douglas Trudeau, Don Tyson, Harold lleiss, Garrett Lawson, Jack james, and Robert Grasser. These two new teams not only brought Kan- kakee into more interscholastic competition. but they renewed athletic competition between the Kays and some past rivals. ' Then, too, these sports gave those boys with fight and spirit, who were too small to com- pete in football and basketball. a chance to dis- play their talents and to struggle for their school. Swimming and cross-country track have made a good start toward becoming major sports here. SWIMMING-Front Row: Heiss, Zaring, Morrison, Mr. Froula.

If you are the athletic type of female. you prob- ably belonged to K lllermaidsf' the girls' swim- ming club. This group of aquabellcs held week- ly sessions on XYednesday in the K. H S. pool. and their monthly business meetings were ore- sided over by loan Bonser, president, and Doreen I,arrigan. secretary-treasurer. Two Splash Parties were given bv the Mer- maids this year in November and April, lunch girl invited a special friend for an evcn2ng's fun in the pool, where swimming gamvs and races were held from 8 to 9. Hungry ap-petites were appeased by refreshments in the cafeteria afterward. Miss Shuman, Miss Nichols, Mr. Froula, and Mr, llarris served as chaperones. Miss .Xrlite Smith, championship swimmer and diver who entertained students in a special as- sembly, gave the Mermaids a special talk and in- spired them to greater aquatic achievement. Swimming meets were another important ac- tivity in which the girls participated. lfour inter- class meets were held-the sophomores winning two, the juniors and seniors, one each. The jun- iors were fortunate in having on their team. Mona Ray Mann. who has set four new records at K. H. S. and has placed in a state meet. Remembering last year's water show, in which the Mermaids. coached by Miss Nichols. perform- ed stunts, drilled, acted out comedy skits, and ended the exhibition by a floating K composed of girls progressing up the 60 foot pool with light- ed candles, you attended this year's. You weren't disappointed-it was just as spectacular. The swimming classes, attired in the new tank suits of orange, green, red. and blue, made the locker room a riot of color. New equipment in- cluded life preservers and rubber nose clips, which aid in stunting. Life saving classes were held again this year.

Sports liditor Chuck Carraher and Executive Editor liill hlaek were aided bv an editorial board con- sisting of llorothy Borella. Gene Carrigan, Helen lieauman. hlean Kammann, Nancy Edgeworth. Hilda Mclntosh, and Bill Potter. The financial side of the Kevnote was handled by l'auline Yarno, Peggy Struthers, and Thelma Caraboa, as business, circulation, and exchange inanagers. A new honorary organization, the Press Club. was formed this year. To be eligible. a student had to be an all-around iournalist who had passed specified requirements in advertising, writing, and circulation.

Page 48 And The Community By Thomas Hemstreet Friday, November l, may sound like just an- other day to many of you, but tl1at's where, you're wrong-for on that day the members of Tri-K and Hi-Y took over the administrative positions of the city. Early that morning, still drowsy from their escapades of Hallowe'en. they arose, put on their best bibs and tuckers. and headed for the city hall. After being sworn in by Mayor of the Day Ray Anderson, they had a finger in virtually all of the civic activities for the day. The policemen. headed by Chief of Police Harry Schrey, spent the day tagging cars and making sure that all citizens obeyed every law to the letter. The firemen, directed by Fire Chief George Morrow, kept the fire situation well under control. Red Clawson acted as city clerk and Mort Klaiss as health officer. Harold Scott. police magistrate. impressed upon the traffic violators the dangers of their carelessness. Other boys roamed the streets as aldermen. building inspectors. and sewage inspectors- enjoying themselves, gaining experience, and increasing further their appreciation of the community. This year's annual football banquet was un- usually good. Having aroused the enthusiasm of the student body with an assemblv in which all the notables of K. H. S. received a liberal Hribbingf' those at the banquet, having enjoyed a good dinner, were entertained by Toastmaster james Dornburg and the guest speaker, Les Lindberg, coach at Lockport. Afterwards there was dancing in the gym to the music of Ross Milk. Hi-Y and Tri-K. both parts of a nationwide organization sponsored by the Y, have a total membership limited to 82 fellows. Hi-Y officers for the year were Ray Anderson, presi- dentg Harry Schrey, vice-president: and Bob Maxfield, secretary-treasurer. Tri-K officers for the first semester were George Morrow. president: Bob Wolf, vice-president: Tom Hemstreet, secretary-treasurer: Bill Condon. sergeant at arms: and VVeldon Hoff, parlia- mentarian. Elected for the second semester were James Schneider, president: Curtis Brandt. vice-president: Donald Tyson, secretary-treas- ureri Weldon Hoff, sergeant at armsg and Ed- mund LaPorte, parliamentarian. The activities of the two clubs are much the same. Both have their bean suppers, interest- mg speakers, and just general business sessions. Comes to School By James Dornburg More and more has your high school become the center of entertainment and learning for you, the community. Your thousands of pairs of feet pass through its open doors, directed toward seats in the auditorium. where you may hear and see variety shows, student plays, con- certs, learned lecturers and artists. Perhaps you will be headed for the gymna- sium, where once again you may view a rous- ing basketball game or an exhibition of gym- nastics. Then once a year the doors are thrown open to you, the public, to enter through and to examine the work accomplished. It is here that you become acquainted with the teacher. learn from him how your boy or girl can bet- ter himself at school. At these Open Houses, you get a better and clearer understanding of the functions of this high school. You have a beautiful building. You have a still more beautiful auditorium. Celebrities of all types have talked and performed from the stage. Such notables as Alec Templeton, Gutzom Borglum, the Vienna Choir boys. Drew Pearson, and others of equal fame have been seen and heard at Kankakee High. In the gym, thrill-packed basketball games of all descriptions have been played. Over- times, a difference of one point in scores, over- enthusiastic crowds, all have led the blood to scourge hotter in your veins. Through these doors pass every day of the school year, the future citizens of Kankakee and America. It is the increased interest in them shown by you, the community, that makes this going to school ever more pleasant. And in time the more profitable.

XYhen you stop to consider, however, that eleven of those tilts were lost hy one, two or three points, you will realize that the hoys prohahly lost several contests through inexperience.

They were minus the services of three 1940 state finalists-Glenn johnson, Lloyd Oakley, and Lane Kohan-tracksters who competed in the discus. broad jump. and 880 yard run, respectively. After setting new records in the district, Johnson and Oakley failed to be up to par in their favorite events and didn't qualify for the finals. Kohan, how- ever, took second in his qualifying heat and sixth in the final. This year's hopefuls included Lettermen Rollie Lang, Andy Anderson, Inky Ror- em, and Chuck Carraher, plus several pro- mising junior track stars and several boys from the cross-country squad. If you attended any of the meets, you saw Boozaml' Kerschke, f'Inky Rorem and Dusey Dusenbury running the dashes and teaming with Art Brown to form the relay team. Kerschke and Brown were the quarter- milers and Carraher and Bob Carpenter ran the half. You should remember VVindv Betts.

Your team took part in two meets this year. placing second in its triangular meet against Harvey and Calumet City and losing to Har- vey in a dual meet. The squad has two scheduled meets remain- ing. the district here and the South Suburban meet at Stagg Field. Any boys who qualify in the district will participate in the state meet.

At the right Coach Harrison is presenting the K Cup to Lawrence Alberts, the i939-40 winner. K C I u h By Charles Carraher You have probably heard of the Club's activities despite the fact that it is one of the school's youngest organizations. This club be- gan its second year under the competent lead- ership of Lawrence lfeldmanu, Charles Carrah- er, and Hill Cloodberlet, who was later replac- ed by Orville liusse when liill joined the lllarines. The first meeting was one of the year's out- standing ones: liob Dalv. former All-.-Xmerican end at Northwestern, told the boys of his ex- periences and acquaintances in intercollegiate football. Other interesting' meetings of the K men were held in Room 305 every Thursday night at 7:30. You will probably never forget the sing'- ing of the K Club members as several of them blended their mellow voices with those of the Snappy Kays in a pep assembly during' February. The annual bean supper for members was held in April. After this, plans were made tor a picnic to be held in Mav. of course you have noticed the miniature pins certain seniors are wearing. These small footballs, basketballs, and track shoes are pre- sented everv vear by the club to its graduating seniors. Those who received the awards this vear were Feldmann, Carraher. McNulty, Al- berts, Anderson, Lang, McCullough, Kerschke. and lioodberlet. Page 56 Honors XYhen you first entered high school, one of your finest dreams was to be the winner of either the Cup or the Kiwanis award. This year seventeen bovs were nominated for the '40-'-ll Kiwanis Cup-Alberts. R. .Xntlerson, Balthazor. Carraher, Downs, lack, Kirkpatrick. Lang, McNulty, Schrey, Scott, Simpson, Smith. lN'esten, and XN'ilson. Seven girls were nominated-liarton, Heinig. McCracken, Pottengjer, Ufferman, Yarno. and Zeisler. From this group will be selected the boy and girl who are considered outstanding in scholarship. leadership and representation of the school. Last year's winners were Elmer Anderson and Louise Simpson. You all know the winner of the K Cup last year, for his feats on the gridiron, the hardwood, and the Cinder paths will long be remembered. Lawrence Alberts' fine three- year career was climaxed when he was chosen the winner of this award. The 19-ll winner has not yet been named. Doris Heinigg' was chosen the wi11ner of this years D.A.R. citizenship prize, while Barbara Burk achieved the D.A.R. historv honors.

Page 57 hrou the Year ith Band You walked into the auditorium, you sat down. the lights were dimmed and the curtain parted. Applause rang through the room: the director, Mr. George li. l'iersol, raised his baton, then lowered it quickly: and as if he were a magician performing a trick, music was lieard-music of your high school concert band. :Xt the striking of the first note. you were quiet. The magical sound. which reached over a thousand other pairs of ears. entranced you and caught you in its spell. .-Xll during the year the baud held your atten- tion: in the spring you watched its members march through the streets as they made their showing to the people of Kankakee. The baud is of interest to the entire community. The city's Chamber of Couunerce has engaged them several times for such events as the Memorial llay parade, summer concerts in Riverview lfark. and the Christmas parade with gay cos- tumes for chorus members who took part. You have sung with them and listened to them in the auditorium and you have watched all 70 members. in their black uniforms with gold braid and shiny buttons. marching in straight rows and making various formations on the football field. Director George E. Piersol received his B. M. from Buena Vista College and also studied at the University of Minnesota, Grinnell College, and Vandercook's School of Directing. He is pictured below helping Joan Bonser. Page 58 By Pat McDaniel You also watched the 75 members of the junior Band in their maroon and gray uniforms adding color when each band was being lead down the Wide way by the two efficient drum majors, VVeldon Farrar and Harlan Flowers. llecause the band sponsored the open air auto show on October 25, on the field at a football game with Blue Island. you were able to see and compare the 19-ll model ears. So you followed the band through the year. read about and perhaps attended the gala party held by them at the Hotel Kankakee on February ll. You read about the great suc- cess of the camping trip the band and chorus took last summer. They really had a time of it, three chefs, riding horses. movies, dances. and partiesg nothing was left out. Of course you attended the spring concert. which drew its usual large crowd, and you saw the added feature of the eight drum major- ettes, Martha .lane Parsons. lileanor lYehr. Mary Catherine Switzer. lietty Betourne, Betty lioslin, Rosemary Reinoehl. jzmice l'almateer. and Gale Fister. The Hag twirlers were Gail Riedemann. Catherine Cotsones, Rita Link. Phyllis Smith, Pat Radeke, Dorothy l'rovot, listher liroadstreet, Dorothy Kunde. and Mary Riortlon. This concert ended the year's activities of the baud at school-a colorful year that you may look back upon, remember. and enjoy. Anderson and his clarinet, on opposite page upper right. gave luunor to the mid-winter concert. when Kenneth picked up a large oil can and overhauled his instrument. Switzer.

You had spent the previous twelve weeks in learn- ing general office procedure. In the business offices, with the kind assistance of the regu- lar employees, you tested your knowledge. learned the specific needs of your individual positions, and obtained valuable references for later jobs. lf you were a Commercial Club member. you will remember that the varied and successful prog,g'ram of club activities was carried out by President Pauline Yarno, assisted by Yi:e-presi- dent llorothy Shaw. and Secretary-treasurer llelen Lelloeuf. .-Xinong the outside activities sponsored by your club, the most noteworthy were the fall picnic held in lYaterman Park. the educational trip through the General Foods l'lant. and the exciting roller skating' party. The monthly ineetings were made interestingg' by the .alks 60 of several prominent businessmen, who offered hints on job hunting and other phases of com- mercial work. As typing students, you began your course with short finger drills and finally succeeded in your time tests through the patient guidance of the Misses Baker, Beauvais, and Reynolds. In shorthand, the curves and curly both- ered you for a while, but Miss Carinody and Miss Reynolds spurred you on. You struggled for three semesters with book- keeping and accounting, helped by Miss Baker or Miss Freitag. and fifteen of you--.lean Co- ash, lX1arjorie Costello.

Un May 2. as you will renienilmer. came the climax of the Council's prograin for good citi- zenship. On this day, for the second year, the administration of your school was taken over hy the seniors. This gave the seniors experi- ence in leadership and a hetter understanding of the principles of good government. Do you recall how the ,Xctivity committee worked on the plan for an activity ticket? They spent many hours working to reach an arrangement for you to save money, Do you remeinher all the events that this ac- tive organization sponsored to help you hecoine better acquainted with your fellow students? You prolnalmly recall attending some ol' the tcil dances. those pleasant dances after the .XI'fj'11 footlvall game and the Blue lslancl lmaslcetluztll gznne. and the all-school patriotic party. It was the Council which arranged for inftny of the asseinhly 1JI'0g'1'Z1l1l!-1 and flecorateml the lnuilding at Christmas. VVhen spring came. the group sponsored iis first tennis tournament. which was enthusias- tically received hy all the students. As the school year drew to a close. your Council took time out to plan a picnic for its inenihers. They deserved it. clon't you think? You can see by the record of this Council that it was led verv efficiently lay' its officers 'and sponsor. James Downs. liawrence Alberts. and Patricia Pottenger were president. vice! president. and secretary-treasurer, and Miss Helen Shunian was the adviser. i Page 65 Page Becoming Social- inded In Science By Eileen Phillips Science is closely connected with your social life.

XYhen you visited lfield Museum and the llall of Science and lndustry, you saw what your country had cou- trilmuted to science. You comprehended something about Mexican life when Aluninus Richard Schneider spoke on his experiences in Mexico. The movies on various scientific subjects, VVildl1fe of .-Xustraliaf' Atl- iuiral llyrd's lixpeditionf' and Life in Hawaii. broadened your scientific interest into world interest. The regular activities of the Byrd Science were carried out very successfully luv l'resident .lint Norris.

Your trip to Chicago gave you an opportunity to study at first hand the progress of your country. You visited the tiarfield Park Conservatory, the Field Museum, the Shedd pkquar- inm, the llluseuin of Science and lndustry, and the .Xdler Planetarium. The lflectric lagliting ln- stitute, the lllunicipal ikirport, the Chicago Daily Times, and the National llroadcasting Company re- vealed tlie wonders of the electric light. the radio, the airplane, and the newspaper. The various movies on scientific subjects also added to your knowledge of science. Not all of the activities dealt with scienceg you rememlwer the Christmas party and the picnic at Rock Creek in .Xpril were devoted entirelv to fun.

By Margaret Struthers Democracy is no longer a word that you take for granted. ln the past year it has become the predominant ioree in your lite: you realize perhaps for the first time that vou are a part of the greatest people in the world. You prohably fidget through your U. S. history classes, and then perhaps one day it comes to you, this whole hook represents the struggle, blood-shed, heart-ache, and trials of the American people. This book is the testimony of thousands of men who laid down their lives hecause they had an ideal and helieved it almove everything else. It was an ideal and vet perhaps it was more than that, because, though those men may not have lived to see it work, they knew that ultimately it would work. Because you are the future rulers of what might he the last democracy to survive the flood of dictators, you are being trained and prepared in a manner that no other generation has ever enjoyed. Because you must learn the groundwork of even the most simple form of government, you are acquainted with what duties will he yours when you are the voters. A course in Civics takes you through the various phases of the government, and you are given the opportunity to voice opinions. Your ideas are impor- tant and are listened to with as much respect as quite naturally is tendered your teachers.

You learn the basic fundamentals of this theory in your school activities and in your study. But everything you learn in school life is not acquired between the covers of books. The greatest lessons of life are taught in situations in which you must 1nake an effort to understand something besides what will benefit you. To accomplish this great task. school activities take the leading part. They teach through association with others in the service projects of the school that you must work as a unit and not as an individual. To realize that school is of anv aid to you besides personal development, think a minute that there is no point in any person talking as he sees fit if he has no education to give him back- ground. Your job will be to see that the chance is never given to anyone to deprive you of your greatest treasure, your personal libertv.

Ruth Barton, Phyllis Zeis- ler, David Mershon, and lilwyn Tetrault were the representatives of the local chapter. The others attending' from Kankakee were lietty Reeves, Iileanor Stewig, and .Iearld Rosen- berger. The Quill and Scroll is an International Honorary Society of high school journalists. The Kankakee members belong to the Nelle M. Groh chapter. To become a meml'er, the following requirements must be fulfilled: an average of eighty-five in all subjects. a recom- mendation by the journalism adviser, and a story accepted by the national secretary. 'lann-s llornburg was president this year: Ruth liar- ton, vice-president: and l'hvllis Zeisler, secre- tary. l.awrence Feldmann was among the first initiates.

With lalin By James McNulty Via and Ancora de prora iacitur: stant litore puppesf' These are the f1rst and last words in your four-year Latin course. Your work in Latin prepared you for your entrance into world life. A person with a knowledge of languages will find himself ad- vanced over others in understanding of pre- sent world conditions. As you progressed from first year work through Caesar, Cicero, and Vergil, your Latin helped to teach you many of the ancient Ro- man laws, customs, and dress. You came to know that many American laws are based upon the Roman laws. Then, too. you learned that the men had trouble supplying their wives with cosmetics. Later you discovered that the Ro- man youths caused their parents worries with their baggy clothes, singing, and dancing. Your knowledge of Latin provides for your entry into the medical, professional, diplomatic. educational. or business fields. With your erudition in the dead language, you are ready to study for any one of a hundred pro- fessions. Early in the school year the Societas Latina reorganized. After electing Doris Neumann, president: Marjorie McCracken, vice-president: and Betty Baird, secretary, the club, guided by its sponsors, Miss Marie Beardslee and Miss Avis Moffett, held its annual picnic. In February, a Valentine tea dance, spon- sored by the group, was one of the most suc- cessful events of the year. The club closed its activities with another picnic in the spring. French Club.

And french By Lawrence Feldmann Comment allez-vous? This was the greeting you received as you entered the classroom where the French Club was in session. Here you took on a special kind of mood. Trou- bles vanished as you began singing Marseil- lais with the group. Your study of French ways and history, as well as French music and drama, gave you the feeling France has not always been as you picture her today. You obtained a better under- standing as to what France of yesterday stood for and what she will stand for tomorrow. Far from being an entirely serious group. the French Club members were always having some kind of entertainment-a tea dance, a picnic, or a party. You left meetings with a satisfied feeling. The club's officers-Roland Lang, president: Harold Scott, vice-president, and Jean Offer- man, secretary-treasurer-with the cooperation of their sponsor, Miss Rosetta Gernon. worked out the schedule of activities. Then the spring approached with the calling creeks and fields, and the French Club followed its custom of having a final picnic supper. Proud of having been one of the group, you let your thoughts wander back over the years of French which made you eligible for mem- bershipg your face lights up and you say to yourself, Yes, it was great, wasn't it?

Good Citizenship and Girl Reserves Go Hand In and By Helen l.eBoeuf Good citizenship is one of the many things for which the Girl Reserve club prepares you. Such activities as giving the Christmas party for needy children, sending boxes to the poor in the hills of Kentucky at Christmas, taking baskets of food to needy townspeople at Thanksgiving, and visiting the county poor farm, are all introductory steps to social welfare work. To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Girl Reserves. the girls gave, on April 26, a Foreign Relations program, featuring the songs which were learned during the yearg this was accom- panied by a Mothers' tea. The same program was also used for the Girl Reserve assembly on April 29. Meetings were held in the cafeteria every Monday after school. The various types of programs included talks by Mrs. R. Y. Allison, Dean Maria Leonard of the University of Illinois, and Miss Helen Shumang picnic suppers at the Y g talent programs, skating parties, holiday partiesg and discussions. 011 April 19 and 20, twenty delegates were selected and sent to the Girl Reserve conference at Decatur, Illinois. On May 2, a joint party with the Hi-Y and Tri-K clubs was held in the gym. The officers for the year were-Patty Pottenger, presidentg Helen LeBoeuf, vice-president: Doris Neumann, secretary, and Mildred Johnson, treasurer. These girls were aided in their duties by Miss Martha Montgomery, Miss Lula Martin, Miss Sara Larson, and Miss Helen Shuman. Williams, Cloutler, Cantlln, Meehling, Albers, Dolan, B. Davis, F. Baker.

A Good Neighbor In order to understand Well the customs and living conditions of the people in foreign lands. it is necessary to visit these lands to study the people. A tourist who can relate travels vividly can bring this understanding to those at home. Miss Lula Martin, who has visited twenty- three foreign countries the past few summers. shared her experiences with the Girl Reserve and Commercial clubs and various city organ- izations. In line with the government's Good Neigh- bor policy, she has helped you understand Latin American neighbors by showing how the people dress, describing the food they eat. and bringing you their music and customs. To illustrate her talk, Miss Martin showed two color films. In the picture, right, she , wears a Guatemalan costume.

No one need explain to you what the Amer- lC2lll rlreain ot toclay is. ln tact no one eoulcl tell you exactly what your version of the .-Xineriean clreain is. He can only tell of his. You alone know what your American clreain is. You know what it is, or, perhaps. rather feel what it is, for it is part of you-a part just as essential to life as heart or lungs. for he who does not possess the American clream is not an American. Perhaps to you the American clreani of to- clay is a clream not only of equal rights anml ehanees for everyone in his pursuit of happi- ness hut also a Cl1'C'Illll of peace-a clreani of a worlcl no longer clisngurecl hy racial hatrecls Todays American Dream By Wayne Simpson Undivided allegiance to the Flag and for what it stands is a leading topic of Americanism. Every coun- try's flag has undivided allegiance, but not every country's flag stands for liberty and justice. You see the Flag looming above your head and the bright colors, red, white, and blue, catch your eye and hold it. The bold white stars peering out of a clear field of blue: the red and white alternating stripes pointing to something which stands for this nation, not divisible by any other nation or people. This radiant and glorious Flag means much to those who are not Americans, as well as to those who love and admire this land of peace and co-operation. I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all. ancl greecl-a clreain of a worlcl rulecl in har- mony anml not in cliseorcl. l clon't know.

The busi- ness or professional man or Woman buys nothing in which quality so obviously speaks for itself as it does in their printed matter.
