CLASS HI TORY Kansas Community High School opened its doors in September, 1937, to twenty-nine hashful freshmen. 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 .,,,, .....,.
