Of the happenings outside of school probably the most important occurred on that memorable December 7. The situation which followed has brought many restrictions, many of which have hung over our heads in publication of this annual. Due to these restrictions, which will undoubtedly continue to increase, this annual will probably be the last of its type for some- time to come. Therefore, We, the Seniors of 1942, have attempted to publish as elaborate a volume as possible, which will long be remembered. To do this, We have pictured the school events of the past year for you that you may view them Through the Keyhole at Kay Aitch Essf' Page Two BUILDINGS Page Three CENTRAL BUILDING HOME OF OUR SUCCESSORS pk-V - v - -'-- '---- - - - --, ,...-ww, H... ., . ,, . . .,. .. . ,,,V,,,,,,,,,,,,.,.,.,.... . , ,AA ... . , DEPARTMENTAL Page Four L.

IACK APPLEMAN Passed Away Mcsy 1, 1936 The Beautiful Garden What else is the sky but a garden, God's garden of peace and love, And the flowers that bloom in that garden Are the stars that shine down from above What more could I ask of My Master Than to he in that garden so fair, And seek for the wonderful treasure That lies in that garden up there. Oh, when my journey is ended And my toil here on earth is through, I hope to find rest and contentment In that garden, My Savior, with You.

Long distance, please. Long distance. l wish to speak to Dr. WL H. Pollard in Washington, D. C., Shoreham Hcgel, Boom 580. This is Miss Beights of the Field Museum, Chicago. Number O l Here you are. Hello Hello, Bill? This is Ieanne Beightsf' VV ell, what a surprise! l haven't heard from you for ages. The last time l saw you was in l942 on the night of graduation. l've just received a new television outfit, and l thought you might like to come over and see it. lt'is possible to look at our old school chums. lt's the only one like it in the World. Would you like to see and try it out? I certainly would. l'll hop in my rocket ship and be over in ten minutes if traffic isn't too heavy. Here already? Traveling is just a minor problem in this day and age. Well, there it is, isn't it a honey? Who'll we contact first? l..et's try New York. Heres New York. Hold it. There's Theda Alleshouse in her penthouse. She's o famous dress designer. Here we are on Broadway. There's Earl Hubbard's name in lights. He has the lead in the Ballet Busse and Lois Outlaw is co-starring with him. The all-star cast includes junior Lowry, Paul Kimpel, josephine Leighty and Martha Ananias. l believe Homer Houck is the production manager, and Lucille Fought is his personal secretary. Bight down the line is Madison Square Garden. There's a troupe from Oklahoma. Of course 'Buck' Sellers is the star. Look at Bob Smith and I-ack 'Whitford ride. They're from Ioyce Leins and Marjorie Knott's dude ranch. Let's look in on the opera across the street. Lookl Vivien Engle is singing the lead in 'Carmen', and Walter Miller is directing the Philharmonic orchestra. l'll bet all the people stop at Haverfield and Hile's Cafe when coming homel Look inside the kitchenl Wayne Cooley is chef. 'll guess that's all the people we know in New York. Let's go over to Chicago. There's a new building. lt's an exterminating plant. Look who's running itl Lynn Becker and Fred McWhinney. They have a wonderful bus- iness. What's that? Are we seeing things? Sure! lt says Ieannette Hetrick elected by an overwhelming majority, carries fifty-two states in her run for President. Charles Balihan is editor of that new paper, the Chicago Blab. lt's the most widely read newspaper in the country, containing famous columns by june Koon, an authority on etiquette. Mary Wagoner is the Voice of Experience. I want to get a glimpse of Navy Pier. Why look at that beautiful steam- ship, the S. S. Lisbonl Look at that handsome officerl Why, it's none other than jimmie Fraze, and over there are a couple of gobs. lt's Iohnnie Cain and Omar Mountz. They import peanuts from Argentina to the Skimmel Milk Company of which Dallas Fiandt is the head. He has found a way to extract milk from peanut shucks. Iimmie often sails down the lllinois river over to Champaign, lllinois, to pick up ginger ale from the Becker and Becker Soda Pop Factory, Beverly being the president of the company and Betty, the vice-president. Look down in the counting department. There's Dorothy Bigelow counting the bubbles in each bottle as it's tested. She always was good in senior math. Elizabeth Gard also works here. She holds that luscious postion of pressing the ale out of a bale of ginger leaves. They have a good many law firms here in Champaign. There's the divorce court over there. Well, l'll be. Mary lean Squire and Gloria Temple are the lawyers. And there's Casey CMary Iaynel jones. She has been recently employed by the F. B. l. as sole investigator of all murder cases. There are not many murder cases now since I. Edgar Hovarter is on the job Uoyce to youl. Shall we go to Hollywood now, jeanne? Here's M. G. M. CMarshall, Graybill and Millerj Studios. They have a fine cast of actors. Forrest Frey is now playing n it U .1 u Page Eighteen in the Shadow of the Thin Man. Guess who's taking the place of Mickey Mouse? None other than Allen Haney. They're all very goodl Catherine Hampshire is our new Hedy Lamarr. And Betty Wible changed her last name to Davis and is playing most of the feminine leads. Bight across the street is where the Brown Derby used to be. It's the Black Hat now and is managed by Bill Parker. Sandal Zonker and her swingeroos, right from the heart of Texas furnish the music. Betty Crofoot is a whiz at the piano and Irene Baker is the blues singer. There's Iack Benkenberger standing over there. Why, he's the new bouncer. They have a monopoly on chicken din- ners here. They get all of their chickens from Harold Frazie's chicken ranch in North Dakota. There is such a fowl climate there, you know. Look over there at that sign. It says Green and Gilliland-Cut-rate Barbers. Those two certainly did cut up in school. Their manicurist, none other than Annabelle Blackman. She surely is a cute trick. Down on the corner stands the Knepper Construction Company. They're engaged in foreign contracting. Trent has taken on the tremendous task of straightening the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The Termite Timber is furnishingmthe wood for scaffolds and is managed by-can you imagine it-Bob Hart. Around the corner there is a lovely florist shop. Let's look inside. There's a beautiful bouquet of roses and Helen is in the middle of it. Doesn't she look grand? Ohl There's Norma Hayward making orchid corsages. That's not all Hay either. Out there's the greenhouse and Bob Kline is the gardener. They's doing fine. Where's that smoke coming from? I do believe it's from that aluminum factory over there. The sign says Pankop Pan Company, Makers of Pine Aluminum Products. There's Lawrence in his office dictating a letter to his secretary, Marilee Barnes. Theres Lois Karlen operating the switchboard over there. The head chemist for that company is Sanford Harrod. Do you see him in that spacious laboratory? There's a wreck over therel l do hope no one is hurt. The internes have hopped out and there are two nurses. Lookl Iuanita Butan and Lois Ehlers. I wonder who was driving. Beverly Delp's Washington Zephyr seems to have had a blow-out. They're taking her up to the operating room. She's on the table and they're looking at her big toe. It's bruised. If she hadn't worn a pair of those toeless shoes, she wouldn't have been hurt. But, look at those shoes! They're beautiful. And see--instead of Peltman and Curme, they're designed by Fritz and Cox. They have one of the most noted shops in the world. Speaking of noted places, over there stands the Biltmore Hotel. All the famous celebrities of California stay there. Look over there at the desk is Bill Smith, the manager. 'W'e'll switch some scenes to Washington and l'll show you where I live. Go to the Mellon Art Gallery. My, it's a beautiful place. l'Turn on the technicolor. Now focus it on the right-hand wall and you'll notice the famous surrealist painting by Katherine Schmuck of a two-faced woman called 'The Blues in the Night,' for which Belva lean Walter was the model. Down Pennsylvania Avenue there, across from the Capitol, stands the Congressional Library. I understand they have Martha Piandt's latest book, My Life. It tells all about our graduating class. Martha has risen to. sudden fame as a novelist because of this book. Doesn't that look like Beverly Fredericks over there at that table? Yes it isl And there's Laura Belle Boszor and Martha Kreischer. They must be looking up references. They're the first congresswomen from the state of lndiana. I got a letter the other day from Helen Beith. She and Margaret Zimmer are famous pearl divers in Hawaii. They send all of their valuables to Ersyl Becker and Margaret Seidel, who make up stunning jewelry for the crowned heads of Europe. What a won- derful thing this television set isl Within an hour, we have looked in on the lives of all our old classmates. They certainly are a fine bunch. I sincerely hope that their success will continue. Old K. H. S. surely gave them a grand send-off in life, and I know that each and everyone is proud of her. I must be getting back. Drop over and see me sometime, Ieanne. I had a wonderful time and thanks so much. Good-bye. Page Nineteen A GLANCE AT THE PAST Let us look far back to '38 when we were transferred to the high school building. We became eighth graders only to be taken down a couple of notches by the upperclassmen. We were allowed to elect officers and do things like the big kids. We chose for our eighth grade officers Rex Gilliland, president, Fred McWhinney, vice-president, and Lynn Becker, secretary- treasurer. lt looks as if the boys won that time. Mr. Penrod, our sponsor, an- nounced our first party to be on February 4. We really had a swell partyj food, pingpong, cards and softball in the little gym. After the party we all went in a group to the basketball game. We had a remarkable increase in students when We became freshmen. The Lutheran, South Milford and Wayne Center schools gave us a grand total of one hundred. Mr. Penrod again was our sponsor. This time our president was Omar Mountz, Bill Parker, vice-president, and Betty Wible, secretary- treasurer. lt seems as though we were true freshmen-our colors were green and silver and the dandelion was our flower. The class felt proud to have two of our freshmen for cheerleaders, Betty Taylor and Chuck Lohman. On january 27 we had a pot-luck dinner, enjoyed a movie on Diesel Motors, and then attended a basketball game. In the spring we went o Long Lake for a weiner roast and to play softball. ln '4O Miss Wills was our sponsor and our officers were Fred McWhin- ney, president, jeannette Hetrick, vice-presidentg and Ieanne Beights, secretary- treasurer. We Changed our class colors to blue and gold and our flower to the lily-of-the-valley. This year's party was a chili supper with dancing after- wards. For the second time our high school cheerleaders were chosen from our class. This time they were Chuck Lohman and Helen Cox. Next came our most exciting year so far. We elected our president, Rex Gilliland, by a convention similar to the national convention which We held in the auditorium. We chose Ben Antle as vice-president and Bill Parker secretary-treasurer. We changed our class colors to green and silver. We adopted our motto, From School Life to Life's School. Then a little later we received our class rings which we wouldn't part with for anything. Mem- bers of our class presented Apron String Revolt, a decided success. Also sev- eral students from our junior class took part in the operetta The Count and The Co-ed. We had a George Washington Party in the little gym where we enjoyed special entertainment and dancing. Of course the one thing we had been looking forward to all through our .school years was the junior-senior banquet. We entertained the seniors of 4l using Our Town as our theme. Now We are at the last round-up. We started this last year with another convention to elect our class president, jeannette Hetrick. The first girl we'd ever had as class president all through school, in fact the first girl ever to be senior president in K. H. S. jack Renkenberger was elected vice-president, Edna lean Fritz, secretary-treasurer, and Miss Page, our sponsor. Then in October we chose Charles Ralihan as editor-in-chief of the annual. The senior play, Pride and Prejudice, was such a success that ushers had to turn people away the first night. The next great event was the flashy green and white sweaters we wore. We adopted the green and white colors again which we had when we were freshmen. Our class sponsored a Valentine Dance for the high school students, the first dance of the year following the Decatur game. Everyone had such a good time that the seniors held a tourney dance. We began to realize that our last year was nearly gone when our announce- ments came in and we had our measurements taken for caps and gowns. Now that our senior year has come to an end, it doesn't seem possible that We should be leaving school. Only yesterday we dreamed of having a ban- quet, getting rings and senior sweaters, putting on plays, and publishing an annual. But, really now that all our dreams have come true, we realize someone else is already carrying on in our footsteps. Edna jean Fritz Page Twenty IUNIORS-FOLLOWING IN Na, f. V, lf r. ',L, ff?

We el.ected Robert Owen, president, Raymond Kurtz, vice-presidentg and Phil Kaufman, secretary-treasurer. Mrs. Kimmell was our sponsor. We held our party in the little gym. The following year our class had increased to ninety-three. Our class officers were Raymond Kurtz, president, Iim Smith, vice-presidentg and Phil Kaufman, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Penrod was our sponsor. We chose blue and gold as our class colors and the blue orchid as our flower. We enjoyed two class parties this year, a skating party at Hamilton Lake and a masquerade. Ninety-five members made up our sophomore class. We elected Lee Inman, president, Bill Smith, vice-presidentg and Connie Kline, secretary- treasurer. Our only party this year was a potluck supper before a basketball game. This year our class was well represented on the team. The drum m-ajorettes were chosen from our class too. This year we have lost a few of our members. Only eighty-two juniors took their seats in the big assembly.

After three exciting political rallies held in the auditorium by the three major parties of the junior class, Carl Yoder, choice ot the New Ydea party won on the second ballot over Duane Williams representing the V tor Villiams party and Bessie Cooley of the Square Dealers. The other officers are Sarajane Butler, vice-president and Beverly Mulholland, secretary-treas- urer. Miss Eminger is our sponsor. We enjoyed our party in the little gym atter the Huntington ballgame. The program was in the form ot a Kay Kyser quiz with some of the students acting as contestants. After the program there were dancing and games. W'e juniors are all very proud ot our class rings. We are the first class to have our initials engraved on the outside. We chose june Mad as our class play, and it was a decided hit. We owe much to Miss Robertson for her tine directing and to the members of the cast, who did their best to make it a real success. Two ot our boys lett us to help Uncle Sam, Neil Hill, who is in the Army Air Corps, and Charles Van jackson, who is in the Great Lakes Naval Train- ing Station. The junior-senior banquet will climax our junior year.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY We entered the eighth grade in September 1939, and after the usual bewilderment of new places and strange faces we elected the following class officers: Sally Lou Teders, president, Philip Appleman, vice-president, Bob Ilile, secretary-treasurer. The next year our class was increased by students from South Milford, Wayne Center, and the Lutheran School. After several weeks of becoming acquainted, we held our first class meeting and chose these officers: Philip Appleman, president, Alice Berry, vice-president, and Howard Treesh, sec- retary-treasurer. We elected the sweet pea for our class flower, old rose and gray for the colors, and Speech is silver, silence is golden for the class motto. VVe enjoyed ourselves immensely at our first party, a mechanized hay ride. Dressed in old clothes and drawn by a tractor, we traveled in hay wagons singing l'Hail, Hail, the Gangs All Here! all over town. Afterwards some of us tried to learn to square dance to Trent Knepper's and Wanda Engle's barn dance fiddle and piano. The gym was decorated with corn shocks which made beautiful ammunition to be fired off into the balcony and down again. Page Twenty-four if , , tm COMPLETED THEIR SILLY YEAR?

We got off to a good start this year by electing Bob Hile president, Gorden Sauer, vice-president, and Richard Mason, secretary-treasurer. We had a great time at our only party for the year. After meeting at the school house, we divided into groups and started on a scavenger hunt. We raced all over town in search of old papers, cigars, piggy banks, and even a set of false teeth. One group, by begging or borrowing, collected everything needed in the alloted time. They were awarded the grand prize-a sucker apiece. But there were better things to come. We had Plyley's candy for refreshments. l1Ve have a great deal of talent in our class. Our members rank with the best in the school. We owe many thanks to Miss Goodwin, our class sponsor, who has done much to make our class a success. We hope to be ,an asset to our school in the next two years. -Alice Berry Page Twenty-live ford, Don Weirick.

We had a little ride to Home City where we all enjoyed our first class party at the roller-skating rink. The learners as usual furnished a good deal of fun. Our boys have made one notch in their basketball careers this year. With such athletes as Ivey, Henry, Deibele, Strater, Kessler, Randol and Delp we hope to contribute to the world of sports. Gunilda Gustein, our most promising musician, accompanies the orchestra as well as soloists. Charles Ivey, Nadine Young, Paul Beiswanger, Nancy Baughman and lames Bryant were seen frequently on the honor roll with a goodly number of A's.

EIGHTH GRADE HISTORY Peeking through the keyhole are lO8 bewildered eighth grade students. When we entered the high school building in September, we felt insignificant and useless, but gradually we gained confidence and felt more at home. Under the guidance of our capable and well-liked sponsor, Mr. Penrod, we elected Kyle Miller, president, David Baker, vice-president, and Beverly Gillen, secretary-treasurer. Our class flower is the Carnation, our class colors are blue and silver, and our class motto is By Our Efforts We Hope to Rise. Our class was represented in an auditorium by having a small orchestra made up entirely of eighth-grade students. This shows that our class has a lot of musical talent. We are taking part in intra-mural athletics, Treble Clef Club, band and orchestra. We also think that we have some good basketball material. On the night of November l9, l94l, two bus loads of noisy. students pulled away from in front of the high school building. The occasion was our first eighth grade party. We were going to the Rome City roller rink to spend a couple of hours gliding around on the smooth floor. There were plenty of spills, but no casualties. Going home every student vowed to have another skating party in the near future. Next year as freshmen we will take our place in high school, and we hope that we can go through the last four years of school and leave a good impression upon the minds of the teachers and other students. -Richard DeCamp Page Twenty-nine Wi l W Wi W, tl W 1 r W i 1 W . I 4 W r 1 W V W .slim THE LITERARY ASPECT FAIR PLAY IN BUSINESS The following excerpts are from speeches which were given by Trent Knepper, Charles Ralihan and Bill Pollard for the local Rotary Club in a discussion held last winter. Similar contests were held by Rotary Clubs throughout the country. Local winners were: first, Trent Knepper, second, Charles Ralihang and Bill Pollard, third. ln the district contest Trent Knepper placed second winning a silver medal. There is a story told us of a foreign king who 'decreed that his subjects must Work twenty-five hours a day. When he was inform- ed that there were only twenty-four hours in a day, he decreed that they should get up one hour earlier. There may or may not be any foundation to the story, but there have been and are many counterparts. lt is against such dictatorial powers that the present war for the four freedoms is being waged. It was against such dictatorial employers that the modern labor union was formed. Now, through some fault that seems to exist within the labor organization itself, that dictatorial power is exterted, not by those whose money and or- ganizing genius have made the industry poss- ible, not by those who work at the various machines and in the offices, but by some individual known as the labor leader or labor boss. lt is not democratic to have men ruled by one man, who can at will call a strike and whose salary is figured on the number of men he can get and keep on strike. Yet with the. unions organized as they are today, a man at a desk in New York can, merely by asking it, throw a thousand men out of work in Maine or in Louisiana. The Revolution twas fought over no greater an offense against democratic principles. But this is not the only unfair practice in the unions. Not ,long ago some gags in a Chicago musicale were censored because they were about Iohn L. Lewis The people and press roared and the censorship was lifted. The man who laid that censorship is the boss of the biggest union graft in the world. He gets his power from a union based on-of all things-music. The name of the boss is Petrillo -Wames Petrillo. He is the son of Italian immi- grants and was born and educated in the slums of Chicago. Today he is the highest paid union boss in the world. The power vested in this man makes him in his sphere as much of a dictator as Hitler. He is supreme ruler over all members of the union which includes the personnel of all cel- ebrated dance orchestras, theatre conductors, such as Toscanini and Stokowski. No orchestra can play anywhere without his permission. Nor would they dare hold an extra rehearsal without his consent. He even dictates as to who in the orchestra shall play what. President Theodore Roosevelt once said, great corporations exist only because they are created and safeguarded by our institu- tions. It is therefore our right and duty to see to it that they work in harmony with our ins- titutions. Since then, corporations have been forced by law to democratically reveal their internal conditions and publish their financial accounts. An old adage says, Whats sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. Does not Amer- ican industry exist because it also has been created and safeguarded by our institutions? ls it not therefore our right and duty to see that industrial labor unions also work in har- mony With our institutions? Is it not as import- ant that the public be informed regarding internal conditions and financial accounts of labor unions as corporations? If we are willing to stake our political cmd social life on the democratic principles, of, for, and by the people, why shouldn't we insist upon the practice of these same democratic principles in the organization of industry? We are fighting a dictatorial world for the four freedoms, let us see that these same four free- doms be gained for both laborers and capital, and that our industrial structure be established on a fair and democratic foundation. ?Trent Knepper ax: ae wk Fair play in business-it is generally agreed that this is essential to be a success in any profession. But now since we are engaged in a war, it is even more important, since unity and fair play are necessary that We may be- come victorious. Because it is so important, let's try to analyze this topic since it is such a general term. The relations of people in the business world can be grouped in five different cate- gories-as managers, employers, sellers, buy- ers and competitors. Let's take one at a time. First, the manager-his domain is to direct and coordinate operation in production, sales, personnel management, financing, and the like. The responsibility here is to give everyone a square deal and a fair share. Page Thirty Secondly, the employer, who is a personnel man, dealing with the question of wages, working conditions, and security measures. His problem is to gain the full cooperation of the employees. To promote a feeling of equality, he must consider wages. They should be based on fair relationship of the importance of all jobs, with the basic level as high as the industry can bear. He must also consider the varying cost of living. He must provide for the health of the worker with safe working con- ditions. lt is especially important in times of war to prevent man-days lost and low effic- iency. He should provide an incentive to co- operation. Next is the buyer, who must cooperate fully with the suppliers. He should consider the interests of the defense program in de- termining the source of supply, so that his shipment will not interfere with the distribution of materials caused by increased production. If defense considerations are equal, suppliers should be selected solely on the basis of bus- iness reputation, ethical conduct, and past performance. Then, as a competitor, the businessman should be guided by the principles of impar- tiality and cooperation, which are vital factors in the present plan for greatly increased pro- duction and distribution. Finally is the task of the seller. Every en- terprising business man has as his primary objective customer cooperation. However, due partly to difficult times, relation with customers have come under more and more regulation. The real reason for this regulation is the bus- iness man himself, who due to lack of proper code of ethics has caused suspicion to arise among the people, who did not believe they were being served in their own interests. Fur- ther excessive regulation can be prevented by an attitude of impartiality, avoiding unjust discounts or undue hardships on consumers by favoritism. Thus each individual of the business world has his own task in this national emergency, that he may promote cooperation, unity and a general feeling of good will. lf he fulfills this task, not only does he do his part for our nation in this war, but he will aid the nation in the future by having already laid the foun- dation to the much desired Fair Play in Business. -Charles Ralihan :lf PF Sk. One of the big problems of the last decade has been that of capital versus labor. The feeling of injustice, real or imagined, which has existed between the employer and the employee has been the cause of a large num- ber of strikes which have been detrimental to capital, labor, and the public at large. Many differences which might easily have been set- tled have-been fanned into major antagonisms by propagandists who wished to bring about disruption in American industry. However, some of the dissatisfaction of the worker has been just and as such have been recognized by wide awake American employers. These men in all parts of the country have been striving through psychological and scientific means to find the causes of grievances. They have endeavored to eliminate them and pro- mote a greater fairness in their own business concerns. During the past few weeks the danger of attack of outside forces and the fear of complete disruption of our economic system have brought the employer and employee closer together. They have seemed more will- ing for the time being to lay aside all personal differences and to work for the welfare of the nation as a whole. During the present crisis high wages, a common danger, public opinion, and partial government control may lessen the number of strikes. However, we must not be led to believe that after these conditions of war are over th-at these labor problems will be permanently settled. We must remember that this momentary truce was brought about by an abnormal situation. And when the normal conditions of peace return the old strife will no doubt become once more the nation's big prob- lem. If we become, as we hope, the economic leaders of the world, this problem will not only be ours but it will be that of international im- portancef The old mistakes must not be re- peated. The laborer must not continue to feel that his employer is making money at his cost and on the other hand the employer has a right to expect efficiency and some proof that the employee is genuinely interested in the growth of the corporation, lf a way could be found to reduce to a minimum the friction between the employer and employee, then outside agitators would find it hard to insert their wedge of disrupting influence. Something must be done so that both sides see and under- stand the other's point of view. Companies' should be aware of two major functions. First, the economic one of producing more goods. Secondly, the social one of creating and dis- tributing human satisfaction through their factories. As we fight for political and social justice between nations, let us fight for fair play in business between the employer and employee. Then when international peace comes there may be increased production and industrial harmony worthy of a leading demo- cratic nation. -Bill Pollard Page Thirty-one I I I 11 1 li I I I I 1x1 1 I I I 1 I I I 1 1 1 1 41 1 -I I 1 I. 1 .N ,N 4.

My first stop is the peanut stand, While munching peanuts, I hear the band, The rumble of drums, the trilling of fife, When I'm at the Zoo-Ohl how I love lifel From there I go to the lion's cage, To find him in a rage, With a gnashing of teeth and many a roar, I find him beating his tail on the floor. The monkey house is next on the list, These chattering creatures I can't resist, Then next the bears and how they growl! In the cage next door the coyotes howl. From there I hear the flutter of wing, 'Tis the birds, and how beautifully they sing, They chirp and coo from morn 'till night, Unless they want to sauawk and fight. From there I go to the amusement park, The rumble of roller coasters-Ahl what a Iarkl The jangle of bells on the merry-go-round. The hum of motors on the ferris wheel sound. I start for the lake, it's getting dark, I pass the seals and hear them bark, I hear the geese honking and hissing, too, And this ends my pleasant day at the zoo. It's ho-hum and I start for home, I'm aching in every muscle and bone, My engine roars and I lurch ahead, Ah! Home Sweet Home and good, soft bed. -Ianice McCally PF PIC PII RAIN The rains come splashing From the sky Clashing Dashing Down to try Refreshing Bracing Up the earth.

Though hurling endlessly through space, when dawn Reveals the outside world, an unseen force Connects him with snail-pacing men outside And brings him music of some distant source.

All the birds were singing a merry tune. A girl sat under an apple tree old, Whose fruit was shining crimson and gold. The grain in the field swayed to and fro, While Martha, the maid with her kitten did sew. The clouds on a background of blue floated by, While Rover asleep on the grass did lie. In the distance a white farm house could be seen, Surrounded by sheep on the meadows of green 'Tis a beautiful picture full of peace and rest.

INSTRUMENT BAND During the past year, the High School Band, under the able direction of Mr. Arnold, has been very active in both school and civic musical activities. lt got off to a fine start by playing for the Hallowe'en celebration held in the big gym before a large crowd. lt played for all the home basketball games and has appeared on several auditorium programs. The band marched in the gala Christmas parade. The outstanding project of the year was the band and orchestra concert Ianuary 23, at which several marches and concert pieces were favorably rendered. The band members, without a doubt, realize that to have a good band, every member must do his own individual practicing. The last semester, they have been working on material for concerts during the summer months. Several improvements in equipment have been made in the past year. The new music room under the auditorium is now completely equipped for use by the band and orchestra. The latest improvement was the addition of fine new racks and folders. lnstrumentally, a new glockenspiel was purchased. Several members of the band will graduate this year. They are Dorothy Bigelow, bells, Charles Ralihan, clarinet, Ieanne Beights, flute, Max Smith, baritone, Lawrence Pankop, clarinet, Robert Kline, clarinet, Dallas Fiandt, clarinet, and Robert Hart, Cornet. To make up for this loss, a large junior band has been practicing to get acquainted with the type of music played by the high school band to learn to play with each other so that they will make good band members.

The first was the band and orchestra concert on lanuary 23. The feature number played by the orchestra was The Unfinished Symphony by Franz Schubert. The other was given April 17, at which time it played the numbers it used in the district music contest held at Columbia City April 25. Other pro- grams on which the orchestra appeared were the operetta and Commence- ment. Edith Cripe, 'cellog Edwin Smith, Cornet, Margaret Diehm, string bass, Clarence Lasho, Xylophone, and Max Smith, baritone, entered as soloists in the music contest 'at Waterloo on March 28. All placed very high and are to be congratulated on their fine performances. Mr. Arnold has a large number of younger boys and girls interested in the various instruments. These younger musicians have been organized into a junior orchestra, which has been practicing every week. They are thus getting prepared to play in the symphony orchestra. There is an exception- ally large number of string players in this younger group. The following senior members of the orchestra deserve much praise for their fine work, Beverly Delp, concertmasterg Iacquelyn Graybill, violin, Vivien Engle, 'cellog leanne Beights, fluteg Charles Ralihan, clarinet, and Dorothy Bigelow, string bass.

A CAPPE The ambition of high school singers is to be elected to membership in the A Cappella Choir, which is the goal that all singers wish to reach. The choir made many appearances this year: Superintendents' Banquet on October 30, We, the People, an auditorium program on November 7, Presbyterian Missionary Meeting at Atz's on Novem- ber l4, D.A.H. in auditorium on November 27, Elks Memorial Service on December 7, P.T.A. on Decem- ber 9, Business and Professional Women at Coun- try Club on December ll, Tri Kappas at Country Club on December l7, Elks Christmas Party on De- cember l8, Christmas auditorium program on De- cember l9, part of choir sang with Methodist choir on December 2l, Wig and Paint Alumni Christmas party on December 22. They also led the community singing in auditorium on March l3. The choir was the important part of the operetta, furnishing all the principals. We were thrilled when the Elks gave us S20 for singing for the Memorial Service. Eight members were chosen from the choir to represent K.H.S. at the Northern lndiana all Dis- trict High School Chorus at Et. Wayne on October 24, The ones selected were: Vivien Engle, Barbara Hauff, sopranosy Edith Cripe, Martha Fiandt, altos, Bill Pollard, Charles Van lackson, tenors, lim Fraze, Trent Knepper, bass. The program included To Thee We Sing tSchedoJ, Come all ye Fair and LL A CHOIR Tender Ladies tMalinl, The Night Has a Thou- sand Eyes CCainl, Turn Ye To Me tCainJ, Ten- ebrae Factae Sunt tlngenerit, and Climbin' up the Mountain tSrnithJ. The program was under the direction of Harold Tallman of Detroit. The vocal contest at Ft. Wayne on March 7 was entered by four of our members with all of them placing and eligible to enter the state contest at Indiana University. Those entering were Vivien En- gle and Barbara Hauff, soprano, Bill Pollard, tenor, and Trent Knepper, bass. From the choir has been organized a Senior Girls Triple Trio composed of Vivien Engle, Mary layne Iones, Dorothy Bigelow, first sopranosg Iackie Graybill, Martha Fiandt, Lois Ehlers, second so- pranos, and leanne Beights, Betty Crofoot, Beverly Delp, altos. At the end of the first semester two of our tenors left the choir to enter Uncle Sam's armed forces, They are Charles Van Iackson, who joined the Navy, and Neil Hill, the Army. On March 10 the choir had a party in honor oi Charles Iackson, who was home on leave. Dancing furnished the entertainment.

Betty Wible played the lead, With Mountz again she disagreed. But in the wings we never knew Whether the kiss was stage or true. Dot Bigelow in the role of jane Used charms on Pollard not in Vain. Lois, the youngest, went astray, And Parker, as Wickham, got his pay. Charlotte won Collins and all his money- Trent in the part was super-funny. Mrs. Bennet, played by Ieanne, Scored a hit in every scene. lmmortal fame her husband earns, For Charlie had home-grown sideburns. And-ethen we never shallforget ef How Mary swung that mean lorgnette, And all the party's gaiety When Yoder wore but one puttee, How Iohnnie Cain was so sedate, And how Miss Bingley tried to rate. On stage we laughed at Knepper's prancing At practice there was Pollard's dancing. They roared when leannie staged her faint. They gasped at Lois and her paint. And one scene always seemed to please- 'Twas Renkenberger on his knees And good Sir William, Harold Frazie, Produced a laugh that set us crazy. Parker stood inside a barrel While Iim was wearing his apparel- You see, we had to rent the clothes, So had to save some, goodness knows. With Lady Lucas's gay attire, - And Kimpel and Pankop and Mary lean Squire And Karlen as Martha with gait so fast, This made complete a wonderful cast. And l know each one till his dying day Will remember the time of our Senior Play. 'PRIDE and PREIUDICEH Pride and Prejudice, a play in four acts concentrates on Mrs. Bennet's determination to get her daughters married. lane, Eliza- beth and Lydia are likely-looking girls in an unlikely looking period when a woman's one possible career is matrimony. To be a wife was success. Anything else was failure. lane and her Mr. Bingley, and Lydia with her Mr. Wickham are quite content with the good of things as they are, but not Elizabethl She actually refuses to marry Mr. Collins, whom she openly deplores, and Mrs. Darcy whom she secretly adores. The play is a story of a duel between Elizabeth and her pride and Darcy and his prejudice. Each gives in before the evening is over and pride and prejudice meet halfway. --Contributed IUNE MAD june Mad -a comedy in three acts tells the story of a typical American family. The story concerns Penny Wood and Chuck Harris, the boy next door, as they go about the frequently difficult, but always amusing business of growing. When Penny's Uncle Mervyn, only five years older than she, brings Roger Van Vleck, a senior and a killer-diller, home from college, she forgets to be a man-hater and succumbs to an at- tack of calf love which is ten degrees worse than measles. ln her effort to make herself attractive to the fascinating Roger, she al- most disrupts two families, but the discovery that Boger is double-crossing Mervyn by trying to steal his girl, brings her back to normal, and incidentally to Chuck.

S. newspaper, marks its ninth year as the official news organ for dis- tirbuting news of our school to students, parents, and other members of our community. HISTORY OF SPOTLIGHT The SPOTLIGHT was foundecdrin 1933 by mem- bers of the journalism class, and again this year endeavored to carry out the fourfold purpose of the newspaper as set up by the first staff nine years ago. These purposes were: first, to promote interest in rhetoric, second, to make a record of events in our school, third, to bring the students and faculty into closer contact, fourth, for amuse- ment and enjoyment as well as appreciation. The SPOTLIGHT is published monthly by members of the journalism class, augmented by members of previous staffs. This year 37 students assisted in its publication, with practically a new staff in charge each semester. Staff members must have had at least five English credits to qualify for membership. Every staff member has a definite duty to perform for each publication. Members of the editorial staff are responsible for departmental reporting such as office news, clubs, music, art, exchange and sports, students on the mechanical staff are in charge of typing, mimeo- graphing, and art work. In addition to regular duties, members are given special reporting as- signments 'as they arise. TO THE SUBSCRIBERS The SPOTLIGHT is grateful to its subscribers, and wishes to thank them for making its produc- tion possible. SPECIAL EDITIONS In addition to the nine regular twelve-page issues produced, this year three special editions were put out. During the first week of school a four-page complimentary copy was published to acquaint new students with our school and our paper. The fourteen-page tournament edition, Feb- ruary, contained the lineups of the sixteen teams participating, and news of basketball. A total of 782 copies was sold. Again this year SPOT- LIGHT offered a free ticket to the regional to the student who most accurately doped the tour- ney and Charles Knight, 8A was the winner. On April l, the third of the special issues, the April Fool all colored edition, filled with non- sense, went to 350 readers at five cents per copy. Also members of the SPOTLIGHT staff were responsible for thei400 or Bust Gazettejwfive issues of which were put out in November during the contest for selling season tickets to the four major productions of the year. CIRCULATION REACHES NEW GOAL Circulation this year was over 400 copies per issue. This number included students and faculty subscribers, merchants and townspeople, a num- ber of alumni and twenty exchanges. SPOTLIGHT BUYS NEW EQUIPMENT The SPOTLIGHT prides itself in being self supporting financially. In addition to adding new styli, lettering guides, slip sheets and a new desk lamp, a new typewriter was also bought bring- ing the total to three, now owned by the paper. SPOTLIGHT GETS NEW CABINET Members of Mr. Smith's shop class this spring built a cabinet for the SPOTLIGHT in which will be kept on file extra copies of all the issues. At least one copy of every issue since its beginning in 1933 is on file. SPOTLIGHT DEDICATES ISSUE TO SERVICE BOYS On I-anuary 16, the members of the SPOT- LIGHT staff putting forth more effort than usual, issued a SPOTLIGHT dedicated to the boys in our armed forces, who had attended K. I-I. S. Many were former members of the SPOTLIGHT staff. Many letters were received from them thanking the staff for the remembrance. One letter was received from Frank Reed, K. I-I. S. '38, who is now stationed in Iceland. The SPOTLIGHT is being exchanged regularly now with the camp paper, The White Falcon, on which Frank is a reporter.

M r. lohn Howerton, Miss Ellen Margaret Wills We have endeavored to publish an an- nual this year which would be better and more unique than those of years past. To do this we have used several new ideas such as the keyhole cover and division pages, the calendar arrangement, the new and additional features ot the athletic sec- tions, and the addition ot another depart- ment, agriculture. This has required a tremendous amount ot ettort, and the co- operation ot our classmates has been eX- ceptional. Some ot those who helped to shoulder the load are: Shirley Miller, Lois Ehlers and Ersyl Becker, typing, Bill Pollard, Mary Iayne Iones, and lackie Graybill, writ- ing, and Iohn Cain, Robert C. Smith, Laura Belle Boszor, loan Havertield, lune Koon, and Helen Cox, who served as salesmen, Others have helped in many minor tedious tasks. We are indebted to the faculty, who have cooperated so willingly, particularly Mr. Howerton and Miss Wills, without whose untiring ettort, we could never have com- pleted our project. We wish to extend our appreciation to these and any others who have helped to publish this Kay Aitch Ess tor l942. Page Fifty l E.

VOCATIONAL AG CLUB The Crop Iudging Teams The Crop judging Team of Kendallville High School traveled to Albion High School to compete against other schools of the county for the honors of crop judging. The fellows that went to Albion were the eight highest of the pupils entered in the local contest. The contest consisted of a quiz about the small grain crops and the farm, and placing samples of shelled hybrid corn, ears of corn, wheat and soybeans. The Kendallville judging team held the highest score. Winning the county meet, our judging team will travel to the District Contest to be held May 7, in Elkhart County to show their talents in crop judging. Vegetable Iudging Teams , ' The Vegetable judging Contest Was held at Albion Hig.heSchool with .other .schools of the-County competing for the honors. Avilla won first in the county contest, but was surpassed by the local boys in the district contest at Laporte. ln the district contest Auburn was first, Ken- dallville third, and Avilla fifth. Galen Swogger had the highest score of the local boys. The contest consisted of grading and identifying varieties of cabbage, carrots, onions, and pot-atoes. Poultry Iudging Teams The Poultry judging team was picked from the Ag Club by having a school contest. The three students rank- ing highest were: Eugene Weber, Dallas Fiandt and Allen Haney. ln this contest eggs were judged for exterior quality and also candled for interior quality. Chickens were judged for meat and egg production. These three then journeyed to Albion where they won the Noble County contest. Avilla ranked second with Albion coming in third. The trio next went to Wolcottville for the district contest in which they placed fourth. Eugene Weber re- ceived highest score of the district. The boys received medals for their outstanding achievement in judging work. The officers of the Ag Club were elected at the be- ginning of the summer to serve throughout the year. The meetings were held every two weeks on Wednesday night. During these meetings the fellows talked over judging and other farm problems. All the boys that had time entered judging contests. ln the county judging contest Robert Kline was se- lected as one of the eight members to represent Noble County in the district competition. l-lis team was one of the winners in the district and thus was eligible to com- pete in the State Fair contest. ln these contests, horses, beef cattle, sheep and hogs were judged.

Page Fifty-one AGLIMPSE JUNIOR - SENIOR BANQUET On the night of May Zl the juniors entertained the seniors and members of the faculty at the annual junior-Senior Banquet held in the little gym by affording them a better glimpse at Our Town. Murals, designed by jackie Graybill and painted by the juniors under the supervision of Miss Sawyer and Miss Page, covered the walls from corner to corner. Each depicted a scene of the everyday life of our town. Street lights were lined along the walls. Also to remind us of our streets were the leaves hanging overhead and along the walls. Little Flint and Walling wind- mills and miniature McCray refrigerators were used at each table. Each of the refrigerators contained Kraft caramels. Flowers formed the centerpieces for the tables. Some of the most interesting articles were the newspapers, modeled after the News-Sun, and delivered by underclass newsboys, which related the program for the evening and other interesting highlights. The following delicious dinner, which carried out our school colors, red and gold, was served. Mixed Fruit Cocktail, Baked Ham, Fruit Sauce, Candied Sweet Potaoes, Corn, Badish Roses, Molded Vegetable Salad, Buttered Rolls, lce Cream, Cake, Coffee. Lois Karlen, as toastmistress, inroduced the program. The welcome was extended by Bex Gilliland, junior class president, and right back came the response by the senior chief, Markenos Kishego. Another feature of the pro- gram was the singing of Anna Kammerer, the guest artist, which was followed by a very clever reading, Our Town Kendallvillef' given by leanne Beights. The main speaker of the evening was the town historian, L. D. Baker, who told of the younger years of Kendallville. Following this, Bill 'Pollard related facts about Main Street Cwith apologies to Our Town j.

Opponents Total games won 10 Lost ll SUMMARY OF 41- 42 BASKETBALL SEASON The 41-42 season was fairly successful in that the Comets won ten games and lost eleven, including the sectional results. The Comets displayed two very different teams during the year?-not different players, but very different offensive tactics. The first few games the Comets used almost entire- ly ra fast break offense. This proved successful in the first few contests, but against stiffer competition it was not so effective. The Comet offense bogged down in the middle of the season, which brought in a four-game losing streak. Later the lveymen adopted a fast-passing and speedy-moving type offensive. With their new tactics the Comets showed steady improvement which was exhibited throughout the remainder of the season and was continued into the sectional games. The Comets were temporarily hampered during the year because of sick- ness and ineligibility. This year the Comets will be heavily hit by graduation, losing lirn Fraze and Rex Gilliland of the first five and lake Fiandt and Fred McWhinney, two fine reserves. lt is also rumored that Gordon Sauer, main- stay of the Comet rebounding, will attend another school next year. So we see that the varsity squad loses five members. But the prospects of players from the second squad is encouraging. Bbb Muesing, who is six feet four, undoubtedly will be of great help next year. Other promising underclassmen are Bob lvey and Ed Houck, who along with other important members of the remainder of the first five and reserves, namely Paul Schmidt, Bud Beith, Ray Sibert and Bob Brennan, are expected to pro- duce a favorable season. Here is cr short -account of each of this season's games: The Comets christened the 1941-42 season with a convincing win over the LaGrange Lions by the score of 35-22. The Comets were on their toes on both offense and defense. The Comets continually kept the leather flying through the hoop, hitting from all angles on the floor. Page Fifty-nine SUMMARY OF 41- 42 BASKETBALL SEASON In the second game, the K'ville offense took the sting out of the Angola Hornets with a 40 to 2l triumph. This being the first home game of the season, the lveymen gave the local fans the first glance at the 4l-42 basketball squad. ln a hotly contested game the Hartford City Airdales edged out the Com- ets by the narrow margin of 33-3l. This was the Comets first real chance for the team to show their ability against one of the stronger caging teams. The Comets were handicapped by the absence of Rex Gilliland, first string guard, who was on the sick list. To make up for the preceding week's defeat, the Comets bullied the Nappanee Bulldogs into a 35-26 defeat which sent them yiping back to their kennels. The Archer of South Side scored a bull's eye over Kendallville. The Arch- ers let loose a burst of scoring power in the second quarter which left a bewildered K'ville squad far behind. Final score: 4l-24. Auburn, the old time rivals, narrowly defeated the Comets in a low- scoring game. Neither team displayed much scoring power as the score, 23-20, will indicate. The Comets, who had in their first four games climbed above the 30 point mark, were definitely lacking in their shooting ability. Against Huntington, one of the strongest fives in the state, Kendallville displayed a great splurge in scoring power by drowning the Vikings with a 33 to 31 count. This was undoubtedly one of the biggest upsets in the state. The Comets showed a marked improvement over the previous week's game. Hot on the trail for revenge, the Comet offense turned cold and they were again defeated by Auburn. The Comets, although fighting hard all the way, were stumped by the Red Devils 34 to 26. The Columbia City Eagles swooped down on the Comets and in a hard fought game snatched a 30-28 victory. A strong Elkhart team defeated the Comets 40-24. The rangy Blue Blaz- ers completely outclassed the Kendallville team. The fact that the Comets in their last few games had not shown their usual scoring ability also added to the cause for the defeat. The Comets, after enjoying a fifteen point lead at the half, entered the second half Without the scoring that propelled the first half pace and dropped the game to the Garrett Railroaders, being sidetracked with a 30 to 24 defeat. Traveling to Ligonier, the Comets succeeded in defeating the Red Raiders 18 to 'l5. As the result indicates, both teams had a hard time building up the score, since each was occupied in making a 'frough of it. As Scoop Carter would say, lt was a basketbrawl game. At Garrett the half score very closely resembled the score of two weeks before, only the tables were turned, and the Comets were trailing. But in the last half the lveymen came through with a last quarter rally and defeated the Railroaders on Fraze's foul shot scored after the final gun. Prob- ably never ibefore in K. H. S. history have the local fans witnessed such a thrilling shooting demonstration. The Butler Windmills, who later won the Auburn sectional, defeated the badly out-of-form Comets by breezing in with a 42-25 victory. The Butler team is one of the best that Butler has turned out in the past years. The Comets changed their tactics against a strong Bluffton squad using a fast-passing type offense. The game was exciting all the way, although neither team held a big edge at any time. This game showed marked im- provement in the passing and shooting ability of the squad although they lost, 37-35. The Comets, led by Bay Sibert, who scored sixteen points, easily de- feated the Decatur Yellow Iackets 38 to 26. All the squad saw action in this game. , Page Sixty Kendallville played a better game at Central than the score would indicate, but couldn't quite compete with the Champs that Wolf Lake drubbed in the regional. The Comets stayed within 2 points of the Tigers the first quarter but were unable to keep it up and lost 42-20. The lveymen avenged last year's defeat by Waterloo with a 36-28 Vic- tory. The team held comfortable leads in all quarters, but the Wildcats staged an uprising in the last quarter and led the Comets for a few minutes. However, the Comets came back into the game with fine passing and accurate shooting and easily defeated them. SECTIONAL TOURNEY Although the Comets did not capture the sectional crown, they eliminated two strong teams. Their playing improved even during the sectional, but Wolf Lake had too much height for the Comets. Avilla game. The Comets started out scoring six points before a bewildered Avilla team got back on its feet. With Fraze leading the way, the team held a safe lead throughout the game. ln the closing minutes of the game, Coach Ivey was able to substitute freely. Final score: Kendallville 39-Avilla 24. LaGrange game. The Comets again were able to defe-at LaGrange, but the game was nip and tuck until the closing period, when the Comets let loose a barrage of field goals and the Lions were unable to get back in the game. Final score: Kendallville 36-LaGrange 25. Wolf Lake game. Against Wolf Lake the Comets were unable to get into their stride. The Wolves set up a stiff defense which the Comets were unable to pierce. This defense together with the Comets' hard luck on their shots proved to be the local cagers' downfall. Final score: Kendallville l3-Wolf Lake 28. . METEORS The Meteors, although playing somewhat inconsistently during the year, showed very good basketball ability, in spite of lack of experience. Their record shows ten victories and seven losses, but strangely they were outscored by their opponents 400 to 365 points. Our second lsquad proved they had plenty of pep, for after a terrific pounding by Central, they came back with K. H. S. spirit and drubbed the Waterloo seconds by a 42 to 22 count. All the Meteor squad are either members of the freshman or sophomore classes so we can expect these boys to improve our V-arsity squad in the next two or three years.

Track interests, being greatly revived by the new track and field equip- ment, has shown great advancement in the past year. No longer do the track members depend on the inadequate Lake Shore Drive for their practice. Track and field meets are now held in Kendallville and have brought this type of athletics to our local sports fans' attention. Many promising underclassmen are expected to show up for practice this spring. There are some veterans back in the squad this year and prospects are encouraging. Last year's team showed slight improvement probably due to the new conditions. Heres good luck to Charlie in future seasons.

The team accounted for a fairly good season under the able coaching of Pop Guymon. The team was scheduled for six games and Won two of them. They were a little shy on good hitting but made few fielding errors. Softball is becoming one of the nation's most Widely played games. Much local interest has been aroused because of new municipal athletic field with its light facilities for night games.

Softball and Track This spring interclass softball and track will be held. The softball games are usually held in the big gym. The track meet will be staged at our new athletic field. Page Sixty-five G. A. A. Let's take a peek in the gym and see what the G. A. A. girls have done this year. You don't know what G. A. A. stands for? Well, it is the Girls Ath- letic Association. Kendallville has been a member of the Indiana League of High School Girls Athletic Association for eight years. We girls play together to have a good time and to learn good sportsman- ship and fair play. Since we all can't be winners, we have learned a lot if we learn to be good losers. We also work for awards, but Awe hope that no girl comes to G. A. A. just to obtain points and earn her award. There are four awards which are given on the basis of points earned. The monogram with l50 points, with 250 points, wall plague with 350 points, and the locket with 450 points, The locket now takes the place of the honor sweater. A chili luncheon was given September ll for all girls and te-achers of the ,high school. lt was to help the girls get acquainted and to show them what good times the G. A. A. girls have. Among the major sports this season hiking and archery ranked first. This year sixteen of the girls, who played during the noon hour, found that it really was a thrill to get their first bull's-eye. The major event of the hiking group was a trip by bus to Pokagon Park where they enjoyed a hike in the park and supper prepared outdoors. Twenty-six Ligonier girls were entertained here on October 13 at one of our famous chili suppers and play night. The evening was fashioned after a regular play day. Over ta hundred girls, including the eighth grade group, enjoyed volley ball this season. Class tourneys were held between each class with the eighth grade playing the seniors in the finals. The seniors have held the volley ball title for the last two years, and now turn it over to the eighth grade, who show signs of following in their footsteps. Page Sixty-six A kid Christmas party was held December Zl with all present dressed as little girls. Ten-cent gifts were brought by everyone present. These gifts were then turned over to the Red Cross for their Christmas baskets. Basketball didn't need to be talked up this year. The season brought out eight teams with ten players on a team and a senior coach for each team. Games were played in the big gym on Monday evenings. The seniors were de- clared undisputed champion by not losing a game. They have held the title for three consecutive years after being runner-up in their freshman year. We also had four class teams in baseball as we did for volley ball. This year Lois Karlen was Presidentg lean Miller, Vice-President, and Marilyn Iohnson, Secretary. lean did good work in getting the noon G. A. A. interested in archery. Lois was responsible for the after-school G. A. A. and did her job nicely. What will we girls do without Miss Carroll and our fun after school? When you're ready to leave high school you will realize more and more what G. A. A. really meant to you and probably wish you were back. The eighth grade girls of the Kendallville school entertained the eighth grade girls from South Milford, Wayne Center, Lutheran and Foster and Zion of Iefferson Township schools at a play day on April l3. ln the afternoon they attended the junior play, Iune Mad, and then went to the gym for a play night. The high school girls acted as group and activity leaders. At six a lunch was served. This meeting was to show the eighth graders what G. A. A. is all about and thus get them ready for a good start next year. At the time this book goes to press a picnic for the end of the year is being planned for all G. A. A. members. This meeting will round up all the activi- ties for the l94l-42 year. Miss Carroll will present the various awards which will then be recognized again at the award auditorium program. Page Sixty-seven 1 W The upper left-hand picture is the after-school archery group except for three advanced archers who are in another picture. ln the other group are the noon archers, led by lean Miller. This is a good example ot a bit of football displayed in our basketball games. Every month our organization receives ia paper Sportingly Yours, which gives the G. Page Sixty A. A. news of each school in the Assoc- iation. ln badminton two advanced mem- bers are showing the proper way to serve a shuttlecock. Next we have the toss-up cinch. A group picture of the girls that participated in basketball, volley ball, or softball. The last picture shows the do- mestic side ot our athletes preparing a chili luncheon.
