The class was duly organized and elected Keith Stokes as president and Mr. Roberts as sponsor. The motto, Wllhe harder we strive the higher we soar. was chosen: the flower, the lilacg and the colors, blue and white. By the time we had gone through the fun and agony of initiation some of the timidity and bashfulness had worn off. We were then ready to try out for basketball. band, chorus work, operettas, plays and contests. Wre increased our enrolhnent to thirty when we began our sophomore year. Wie elected Adaline Perkinson president. and Mr. Pence sponsor. Nve initiated the freshmen into our fine school, of which we were very proud. Xve had learned by this time howto study to a better advantage and how to get things done and out of the way so as to have more time for school activities. These we entered with great zest. Our finest accomplishment was the school paper, 'LP1'e-Re-View, which we published as an English class project. As we look back upon our junior year, we realize it was a year ill our lives never to be forgotten. NVQ- elected Betty Honn as president and Miss Swear- ingen as sponsor. We studied hard, but oh! what a lot of good times we had tool There were the basketball games, in which our class was represented by having members on the teamg then thcre was the delightful junior play, MAdorable, the operetta, uCherry iilossomf' and the never-to-be-forgotten junior-senior banquet and prom, Besides all these there were parties and eontests with other schools. Uni' last year, which is the most worthwhile year of all, we began with a smaller enrollment. Keith Stokes was elected president, and Miss Swearingen continued to be our sponsor. Our class was well represented on the hall teams, which had successful seasons. We gave the school a flag and flag poleg we pre- sented our senior play: and were entertained by the juniors at the junior-senior banquet and proln. Yve are proud of our class and what we have been able to do. OFFICERS President .,.. ..., , .KEITH STOKES Vice-President .... ...... G ERALD HONN Secretary .,,,, .....,.

It has shown great progress the past two years under the direction of Mr. Myllan Smyers. In the spring of 1940 the band entered the district contest, which was held at Bement, lllinois. Since it was the first year, Class D for beginning bands was entered. First division ratings in both concert playing and sight reading were received. Summer classes were held and the band presented a free concert every Xlfcdnesday night for eight Weeks, thus keeping the band in practice and ready to begin i11 earnest when school started. Football being a new sport in the fall, a marching band was developed and formations were demonstrated at the Homecoming game. Several ensemble groups were organized, adding greatly to the band. These were a brass sextet, a brass quartet, and a saxophone quartet. They were pre- sented in several public programs during the past two years. The sextet also entered the district contest at Mattoon. New uniforms have much improved the appearance of the band this year. CHORUSES An excellent year has passed for the Glee Clubs and Mixed Chorus of K. C. H. S. The new members learned the fundamentals of singing, and the old ones improved their voices. The singing section, under the supervision of lVIr. Myllan Smyers, entered the district contest at Mattoon and also the E. I. contest. Margaret ,lean Honnold, a senior and member of the Glee Club and Chorus, was chosen to represent the school in the All-State Chorus at the University of Illinois on November 1. Utbcr soloists this year from the Glee Clubs are Gerald Honn, ,loan Moody, and Joyce NVcston. blembers of the boys' quartet are Gerald Honn, Keith Stokes, Billy Jones, and ,lack Kuykendall.

STUDE C UNCIL The Student Council is one ol' the most active organizations in school. It governs every class and all activities carried on by the students. The Council is made up ol' students from each class, the number being determined by the enrollment of the class. There are four freshmen: Helen Boyer, Arlene Brown, Joyce WGSTOII, johnny Hiteg three sophomores: Julia Covey, James Tarnow, Mary Sinipsong three juniors: Anne Stark, Burton Cline, and Edward Barryg and three seniors: Gene Cline, Mildred Bonnoxn, and Keith Stokes. One member is a post-graduate, Jean Nvalker. Mr. Roberts and Nlr. Pence act as adviser and sponsor respectively. Wfhen asked to help in certain projects, the Student Council is more than glad to help. The students feel they have a part in the school program, since there is a council like this in school. At the first of the year, for the election of president, students signed peti- tions and the candidates gave speeches before the student body. This was the tirst time an election of this type was ever held. The antics of 'LToby and his assistants in their campaign for his presidency will long be remembered. 'fliirly-five DEB TE CL B Eleven pupils were chosen this year to debate 011 the question--- Resolved: That the power of the federal government should be increased. They entered three contests, in all. Two teams entered tl1e Forensic Festival at Terre Hauteg and one team, the speech contest at Charleston, sponsored by the Eastern lillinois State Teachers' College. March 25 was the highlight ol' the year. as two teams entered the Eastern lllinois League Debate Tournament. Although this was thc first year for any of Kansas' students to debate, they worked hard and found it to be a grand thing to say just what they thought. HOME ECONGMICS CL B The Home Economics Club was reorganized at the beginning of the year. with Margaret Jean Honnold as president. Betty Holm was elected vice-president, Anne Stark was chosen secretary. and Lucille York, treasurer. Committees were chosen to make the plans for the coming year. Une business meeting and one social meeting were held each month. The members of the club worked hard for points, Hllfl several received pins at the end of the year. Some of the out- standing social events of the year were the Christmas Dance. the slumber party. and the Commencement Tea. The Future Farmers ol' America consist of all boys who study agriculture. Their activities are showing livestock at the fairs and also making public speeches during the summer.
