THE1931K'ENITORIA 44Labores of the Senior Class - YVhat fun we had raising money for the YVashington trip! First, there was tl1e Harvest Carnival. No one could forget that, especially those on C fax 4 the decorating committee who were on their knees practically all the X X25 l afternoon pinning strips of paper to the strings used in heautifying the f N! cafeteria. Then we ll1l1StI1't overlook that vaudeville show which did W I v 'W' so much to make the evening a success. It's really surprising what good ' if Zi Indians our Senior boys make. This was by no means the end of our activities, for soon came maga- T zine and Sal-0-Well campaigns. Two quite different articles, we assure you. We won't forget either hlurray W'ilkinson's pleading for money not yet turned in. Be- tween the benefit show at the Kenmore Theatre and the Senior play, it seemed as if we were never rid of tickets. There were always some to be sold. Tickets became our password during the early months of the year. Spring finally came and with it Wfashington. To the lucky ones of us who went, it was all we could expect and more! Days on the go from morning 'til night, sights overaweing usg history revealing itself before our eyes, fun aboard ship. What memories to store in our minds for future years! Celebrities come under the next heading. There are so many representing every phase of school life that it will be impossible to name them all. First, however, come those of high scholastic standing. Of the thirty-five honor students, Jane Quigley, Betty VVeller, and Elizabeth Katzmayer managed to come to the front and received the honors of being the highest in this year's class. Bob McEwen achieved first place among the boys. A rising vote of thanks is given to the Rostrum staffs who worked hard in providing bits of school news for our weekly enjoyment. What's this? Dan Steible and Marge Hauser arguing? Nothing serious we hope: probably just force of habit as a result of their hard work on the debate team. Speaking of debate, it may be of interest to know that it was through the efforts of our class that we entered the National Debating Society. Last, but by no means least, come the pages turned over entirely to sports. Both football and swimming teams are to be congratulated upon having the most successful season known in this school. WVe surely are proud of them. Then that basketball team! Who can forget that? Our boys fought so hard and had so few defeats that it seems a shame to give them only this passing notice. However, they know how much we appreciate all that they have done. YVe'll never forget those years of work and play alike nor our friends, the teachers, always ready to help us when we were slipping. K. H. S. is now our Alma Mater. The first volume of our life has been closed. lVe have the second in our hand but have not yet opened it. The future is before us- what we make of it depends upon ourselves.

THE1931KENITORIAL 66Labores of the Senior Class Four years have passed since our triumphal entry into high school. They have been years of hard endeavor to overcome difficult phases of our work. I but throughout them all. we have enjoyed that golden bond of friendship which is of infinite value to everyone. Graduation means a great deal more ' to us than merely leaving school: it means the parting of loyal friends and 'R' the new experience of going out into the world to dig for ourselves. Some ! students will go east. others west, but memories of their Alma hlater will never desert them. To bring back thoughts of the good old days. let us enter the reminiscent mood and gently turn the pages of our diary. A-A-d The first chapter is devoted to our Freshman year. No o11e could possibly have been prouder than we as we strutted down the halls with our load of books. Parties. too. were not lacking. Who could forget that glorious time we had in the old gym? Games and eats enough to satisfy everyone! Neither were we lacking in originality. Setting the precedent which has ever since been followed. we presented the Junior High School. upon our graduation, with a beautiful picture which has done much to beautify the hallways of K. H. S. Time passed rapidly and it was not long before we were full-fledged members of Senior High School. We had passed our first. green year and could now consider ourselves a little bit above the new Freshmen following in our footsteps. We were certainly getting on in the world. Turning the pages of our book. we come to our eventful Junior year. l'nder the helpful guidance of Mr. llaisch, we embarked upon what was to prove a memorable period of our high school days. As we were occupied with the usual struggles with homework and regents. time seemed to pass quickly and we soon found ourselves anticipating the Junior picnic. W'hat a picnic that was and what a picture Keith ltlorgan made when he emerged non- chalantly from an overturned canoe! CDid we say nonchalantly?j Remember the bread line? YVorse than a bread line was the crowd that pushed, shoved. and knocked to gain a few hot dogs and a bottle of pop. It will be a long time before we forget that picnic. The annual Junior Prom was next on the list. That, too, was a big success. with gayly colored balloons suspended over the heads of the graceful couples and an orchestra to drive away our blues. It lasted but a few hours and at its close we found ourselves nearly at the end of X I our Junior year and on the threshold of attaining what we had many N 5-wb wi' times longed for-our Senior year. Q 3 Seniors at last! lVhat a thrill to be listed as among those who have 'iii' reached the climax of their high school career! VVe turn the pages slowly. for we are nearing the end and wish to prolong our story as long as pos- p sible. In a short time, Finis will be written after our names a11d way 1 made for others to follow. 'l hey may be able to take our places. but no one can rob us of memories.
