I, Robert Bitner, bequeath my car to any one who has a horn to fasten it to and my powh er to grow a mustache to Randolph Scudder. I also wish to leave my power of solving Trigon- ometry problems to Louis Mozingo. I, Donald Gossard, bequeath my admiration for a certain sophomore girl to Wayne Hobbs and my power of sleeping in the assembly to Norman Goodnight. I, Jean A. Harlow, leave my ability as an orator to Mary F. Wheatley and my ability to whisper without getting caught to Betty Jean Goodnight. I, Thelma Johnson, wish to leave my love letter writing ability to Donald Morelock and my school jacket to Wilma McMullan to wear in case hers wears out before she graduates. I, Leroy Floyd, bequeath my ability to drive a car satisfactorily to Arnold Hawkins so that he may be Miss Hamblen's chauffeur from now on. I also wish to leave my honor sweater to Joe Kemp. I, Jean Orr, leave my school attendance record to Mildred Partlow and my place on the year book staff to Margie Mcwullan. I, Robert Wilson, wish to leave my posi- tion on the basket ball team to Robert Johnson and my ability to find out what happened last nightn for the purpose of publication to Myron Barnett. I, Ethel Egler, bequeath my love making ability to Zora Arnett and my certain way of walking to Bernetta Griffith. I hope these people feel highly honored in having these extraordinary abilities given to them and hope they will find them most valuable in later years. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY As I have the mysterious power of reading what is to happen in the future, I shall take you ahead into the year 1948. As I gaze into the crystal, I see the class of 1958 looking me in the eyes. First of all, I see Miss Jean Orr who by this time is an acco plished beautician and is beautify- ing that incomparable movie actress of stage and screen, Miss Ethel Egler. I see next Mr.Leroy Floyd who owns one of the largest farms in Indiana. He is a very ef- ficient farmer. ---- I wonder how he got that way, don't you? Next appears Donald Gossard who has inven- ted a chair that transforms itself into a bed when it thinks you are getting sleepy. Too bad Gus couldn't have had that back in his high school days. Then we see Mary Lois Wilson, perhaps the greatest tap dancer and blues singer of her time. Her theme song is uAm I Blue.U I won- der why she picked that song: the bottom must have fallen fran the cradle. Look at Robert Bitner who has iust com- pleted the book that has taken him ten years to c plete, nKeeping Well.H I wonder if he practices what he preaches. I now see a man whom I believe is Robert Wilson as a director at MGM in California and has just finished filming the picture, WThe Bumble Bee Honey.W Observe Jean Harlow, by this time happily married with several children to her collec- tion. Never say NI won't.N Then appears Ray Cox who has become a famous preacher, preaching the doctrine NThat man originated from a monkeyu and he should know what he is talking about. Last but by no means least, I see Thelma Johnson, the last member of the class of '58 and she is at this time the manager of a doll manufacturing c mpany. She surely changed her mind about dolls--or did she? A '4Q6G66G 41 K This completes my crystal gazingi but I have one thing I wish to say to other classes in K.H.S. I hope you are as successful as this class I have just reviewed for you and it goes to show that although this class had an awful reputation in high school they were made of the right kind of nstuffn ------ or don't you think sc? Ethel Egler EASTWARD HO! The class of '58 are planning to take 8 trip visiting several of the larger cities in the East: Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Washf ington D. C., Annapolis, and New York City. It has been a custom for the past two years for the seniors to take trips instead of having a Junior-Senior Reception. The class of '36 went to Michigan and the '57 seniors went South visiting in seven states. The seniors have been working diligently trying to secure the money to make this trip and on February ninth, they held a plate sup- per at the Christian Church for this purpose. This class is planning to leave April the yy twenty-seventh and are hoping to see many in- Y? . teresting sights in the East. . XI Mrs. Anita Gossard and Mr. Phillippe have Xl Q7 consented to take their automobiles and we son- Q7 . iors wish to take this opportunity to thank , Xl them I' or their splendid generosi ty.

Soon after the starting of school we held our first class meeting with Mr.Bram ell as our sponsor. We elected the following for our officers: President, Ralph Seudder Vicekfresident, Virginia Clark See.-Treas., Travis Tunis Juanita Hawkins enteftained the class With a Thanksgiving supper November 20 and every one had a very enjoyable evening. Hr. and Mrs. Phillippe and Mr. and Mrs. Brammell were pre- sent. During the last few months the eyes of our class have turned to basket ball. We are very proud of the following members of our class who have helped make up the team. Eu- gene McDaniels, Robert Johnson, Wayne Hobbs and Arnold Hawkins. Betty Jo Goodknight moved to Sheridan at the close of the first semester, thus leaving twenty-one to begin work again after Christmas vacation. Now as achool comes to an end we are look- ing forward to being Juniors and hope we will all be' together next year. Mary Jo Freeman 9 Ill!! vixfxfxfd.

I don't have time to fix my hair or anything. I go into the assembly room where everybody looks sleepy. Half the town students are late every morning. They must be out late at night. The bell is rung. It's a cow bell. Everybody wants to ring it. Then I hear the shuffle of feet and in a little while the room is quiet. We have a thirty minute period for activi- ties but usually all of the classes are in the assembly. Sometimes I can hear a sissing noise that s meone makes so he can get someone else to turn around so that he can talk to him. It usually comes frem the front of the roem, over in the north corner. That's where Wayne Hobbs and Mary Lois Wilson sit. They're usually wri- ting notes to each other or whispering. We go to geometry class, then Latin. After that we have a five minute intermission.There's laughing and talking and the noise of feet. We all go to the basement and visit with our fri- ends. Sarah Straley and I are always the last ones down. Every girl is in front of the mirr- or, expeeially Mary Jo Freeman and Betty Jean Goodknight. Sarah and I are so short we can't see over them. All of us come back up stairs and take our seats. There are usually five or six boys that c me in late. Arnold Hawkins comes in late quite often. Miss Hamblen keeps the assembly. . After about five minutes has passed there are five or six back at the dictionary whisper- ing to each other. Bob Floyd is always writ- ing me notes. He is a cute little boy. I like to get notes from him. Louis Mozingo has moved over into the other aisle. He did sit behind me and I get a few letters from him. He's cute too but rather bashful. Sarah and I almost had a fight over himg but we decided we could both like him. Eugene MeDaniels and Bob Johnson are always talking about the basket ball games. I like to listen to them when I have time. Soon the bell rings and that means it's dinner time. any X vi YV N? 3? v 7111111111 'QQQwf'wZx QQ4 Wi?ffii3?4 nf 4LuQ4Q, w l1EN 6 j f- J .Q . , l ,A 1 x ' Q VQ.1,- V E95 3 5. fr 1 1 .!,t.i,u.Eg3-L , i 3171 'P Q, 3.93. 3.59 .Q-,N 1 ,-A ijfgc if E, If-LL '1 'D is 3 0' ,mx f4f'!

Robert Cook, who came here when we were in the fifth grade, moved to Tipton last October. Julian Hale, who came here at the beginning of the school term, moved to Scircleville. Dorthy Coffman came to our class when we were in the seventh grade: but we lost her this year too. We are very sorry to lose these students from our class,but wo shall never forget them and we hope they will not forget us. The girls of this class are very proud of the boys as there are three of them who play on the basket ball team. Charles Cauble and Nor- man Goodnight play on the second team and Lavon Reese on the first team.u - In October the girls home economics class entertained the boys manual training class with a luncheon at the noon hour, with Mrs. Cunning- ham and Mr. Finley present. ' We have had one party this year. We were entertained at the home of our sponson, Mrs. Cunningham. This was a Washington Birthday Party held on February 19, 1958 with nineteen guests and members present. We are coming to the close of our freshman year, and we hope we may all go on together the rest of our school days. Sue Tunis Please read this dear people and you will admit The green in the Freshmen is fading a bit. Take notiee and remember as short years roll by The hobbies of Freshmen will prove that they try First let us take Zora who loves to day dream, That she goes roller skating with her beau in the spring. But Nancy WOh people!N no dreamer is she, But a lover of sewing and as neat as can be. New Minor's a worker his mates all agree And swears every day a violinist he'll be.rV Inene she goes walking but a boy never seeeg For her mind is on English and good English, please. ' f Dear Margie, she's neat in her school work and . dress y' But her pass time of combing her hair leaves it a mess. Poor Norman, he leers at the teacher in hate For interrupting his sleep while filling e date. Then Charles, he appears with a-big honor HKU But discarded this sweater when Phillippe said V linay. I! Jane Snipes with her Algebra never will hide For she sleeps and she eats with it right at ' her sideo And Lewis, her brother, he says with a shrug, To heck with your Algebra, just look at this bug. New Mary, will you please quit passing that note' If Finley should see you it won't be a joked Please tell me Jane Seirele have you a pass time? 4f'A'4f'1f.1'1fC1'1f'1' 'NJ-sfNJ'sI G66G6'46 01 I '1 .1 You go pass your papers, to be late is a orrme And Dorthy just what are you laughing at now, Try grinning and smiling thats a good vow.

We chose our class colors which are blue a whi The teachers said they were quite all right. We chose our flower, which is the carnation, It's the prettiest flower in all the nation. And when we don't know what the lesson is about The teachers get so mad they have to shout. But just remember we are in our teens, So that accounts for us being so mean. Tampa Wells CLASS HISTQRY Class colors'--Blue 8a White Class motto---If you don't succeed, try, try, ' A again. There were seventeen members in our class ' when we started the eight grade. One of Q our girls, Mildred Cook, moved to Tipton but Rowena Hawkins came from Sheridan to join our class and so our class still has seventeen members. We have had two parties, one of which was a farewell party for Mildred. We have enjoyed our eighty year in school and are anxiously awaiting the time when we will become Freshmen of Kempton High A School. .

Every morning there was an inspection of hands, finger nails, and teeth. They also tried to have a clean handkere chief to start each new day. At these times a discussion of the correct foods for breakfast especially were taken up and usually each one talked of his or her own breakfast. It was easy to be seen that most of them enjoyed good, warm, nourishing breakfasts be- fore they were sent to school. The greater per cent drank milk not only for breakfast but for their other meals. In connection with this they also had health songs and health stories. JUNIOR RED CROSS V Early in the term we all became Junior Red Cross Members, paid in our pennies, and in re- turn received our pins and our monthly magazine As was done in many of our county schhols the children made a very pretty and interesting Valentine booklet and sent it to the Riley Hos- pital for the little children there. At Easter time some of the most interest ing and entertaining material from their hand- work and art classes was again sent to the Ril- ey Hospital. READING Both the first and second graders considers reading their most important subiect. They have found they must learn to read before they can ever expect to go much farther in their school work. Every year more and more reading is fre- quired. As a result mush interest is taken in their reading and by exchanging books with the first and second grades of Goldsmith they have been able to cover much more material. The first grade have also made several booklets in connection with their work. xv xv xv xy 6G6GGGQ6Q6 '7Q'C - SOCIAL AND PROJECT STUDIES The primary room took up the study of dif- ferent peoples during the term. As each was studying they wo ked out a sand table proiect in correlation with each race of people. Among the different peoples taken up were the Indians, Es- kimos, Dutch, and Japanese. I GRADE 3 E 4 The third and fourth grade boys and girls have been very busy this year with various soc- ial activity projects. The ones of especial in- terest were the thanksgiving story and the study of Holland as worked out on the sand table. We studied the country and the people. Different articles such as wooden shoes, pictures,and let- ters were contributed by members of the classes. The study of Indians has also proved very inter- esting. Booklets telling the story of the Ojiwa Indians have been made. We are also members of the Junior Red Cross and receive our Junior Red Cross News every month. The stories in the magazine are very interesting and we learn what other children are doing to help unfortunate people. We have made a quilt top of blue and pink for a baby crib to send to the Riley Hospital. We have also made Easter greeting cards to sent to the hospital at Marion. JGKES Mrs. G.---What seems to be giving you the most trouble in working the long division problems, Bryce? Bryce G.--Well---It's mostly the answers. Mrs.G. ---- Well, Charlotte finish your problem.

During the winter days when it was far too cold to play out of doors the members used their recesses and lunch hours in making and reconditioning toys to send to the Riley Hospital. Later we sent a scrap-book filled with valentines that we thought might prove entertaining to the children. BASKETBALL The fifth and sixth grades were very proud of their basketball team which was made up of Junior Hawkins, Billy MoMullan, Ned Amos, Darrel Floyd, Malcolm Mozingo, Dwayne Reese and Harry Lee Neff. Our first three games were with our Ju- nior High and we managed to win but one game. Boyleston lost to us on our floor by a score of l6 to 8. Later we journeyed to Michigan- town to beat them again by a score of 22 to 8. In a very interesting game at the close of the season the boys fought hard to beat Goldsmith in an overtime game 20 to 15.

'6666666 .ll 66666666 YZ 'f OPERETTA WUp in the Airn The boys and girls of Kempton High School who are in the glee clubs gave an operetta on April eighth entitled NUp in the Air.U Following is the synopsis of the operetta nGeorge Burbank, a big business man,toler- ates no one but a young man of brawn and dar- ing as candidate for the hand of his daughter Betty, who is already wooed, much to his annoy- ance, by Harold Post, a young man of just the opposite type. Burbank's friend, McCullom, a movie magnate, proposes to stage a spectacular flying stunt by a young aviator, Joe Bennett who has applied for a job in the movies, and offers a prize to any amateur who will make .a parachute jump. Jim Carter, Harold's busybody 9 9 friend, seizes on this as the young man's op- portunity to make good and devises various ali- bis which will prevent his actually going up, while gaining the credit for bravery. One by one these alibis fail, and Harold, gets more and more deeply involved. Finally he is for- ced to go through with it in spite of himself and by a comic fluke manages to maintain his 9 reputation as a dare-devil, to gain the enthus- iastic approval of Burbank, and to win the girl of his choice.

The stor was entitled UA Huntin y - e We Will Go.U The author,Mr. Paui L. Phillippe, could well be a premising writer and story tel ler. We have received permission from him to reprint his story in the yearbook. A HUNTING WE WILL G0 Once upon a time there was a race. It was known in Greek times as Atlanta's race, where only the best took part. Later in Ro- man times Cicero changed the race to a hunt. He placed Sir John Tipton and General Sheridan in charge. They too Hemp grass by the ton and made a windfall out in the Prairie, east of grcadia,'in the Hgstgield just north of a walnut Grove. Behind this the fishers and Qgbles from the ville lay in wait while they ate Qarmels and looked Qhgrpsfvillel in all directions, With them they had a Goldsmith who was to make the medal awarded the best hunter. Now what they were really looking for was a Donny Duck sometimes known as Gussy Goslin KGossardJ, but there were also BitternslBitnerD and Hawks KV.

Fifteen different teams represent these two counties. The Curtain-Raiser Thursday night was a thriller between Kempton and Atlan- taKl957 Sectional udnnersl. At the half Kemp- ton led the Atlanta boys 10 to 9, and when the final gun sounded Kempton was out on top 19 to 16. Kempton's next victim was Goldsmith whom they played Friday afternoon iMarch 45. The final score read 26 to BO in favor of Kempton. The boys had now reached the semi-finals. Carmel, Tipton, and Sheridan had also weather- ed the storm this far. Kempton was scheduled to play Carmel the first game and Tipton and Sheridan were scheduled for the second. The first half of the Kempton-Carmel game was a continuous battle.
