STUDENTS TEACHERS PRINCIPAL SUPERINTENDENT BOARD OF EDUCATION PEOPLE OF KENTON eniom. Keep Your Eye on the Ball! At the close of this school year you will have completed your high school course. ln this you are to be congratulated. Benjamin l:'ranklin's advice to youth was, Empty your pocketbook into your head and it cannot be taken away from you. He who has learned a trade has an estate. Both maxims are as irue today as they were in Franklins time. As you travel along through the years, do everything possible to help maintain the American Way of Life. Set your standards high while a youth and live up to them. You can if you will. Your knowledge is no better than your information. Be a student. Try to keep well informed about your job as well as current events. Don't allow your temper to overeride your judgment. This one thing alone can wreck your life's profession and happiness. One tactless remark, which should have remained unsaid, may be the turning point. Don't get nervous or excited about every little thing that happens and fly into a tempera- mental tantrum. Who wants to be around a person like this? Keep calm and you will live longer and enjoy life much better. Use smile words instead of grouch words. Act friendly toward people instead of assuming the role of superiority. A successful life comes only by hard work, honesty, integrity in all your actions, and efficiency in your job. Always look ahead but profit by past mistakes. Progress instead of regress. Don't hog-tie your personal initiative. Be- lieve in yourself. Work to the limit of your capacity and you will be surprised at what you can accomplish. Don't waste seven evenings a week doing nothing. Remember that you travel lifes pathway but once. Keep out of the ruts and even away from the edges lest you fall in. Be alert. Take off your blinders and be on the lookout for modern progressive changes in your trade or pro- fession. Employers in war plants pay a bonus to war workers for original ideas and inven- tions in order to make industry more effi- cient. lf you become habit-bound and tradi- tion-ridden, some forward looking individual will likely come along and step into your shoes and leave you sitting in your rut. Don't be afraid of work. Get things done on time.. Turn bad luck into stepping stones of good luck. Better to be a thinker than a talker -but when you do talk, back it up with facts. Become an authority in your field. Too many people who fail, blame everything on their surroundings instead of their own personal mistakes or judgment. They fail to analyze themselves. Cn his death bed Cecil Rhodes, who ac- complished so much in Africa, said, So little done, so much left to do. Horace Mann, president of Antioch College, told his stu- dents in his last illness, Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for human- ity. You are now at the forks of the road ready to go down the highway of life. Now is the time to decide if your life shall be a failure or a success. Here's hoping it will be the latter. L. E. McKinley I am Writing this on Ianuary 25, 1945, during a period when school routine is disrupted and effectiveness of educational procedures are at an all-time low Cin my experiencel. I bring this to your attention to beseech you as an individual to be strong in character and in your adherence to the way of life we consider important enough to fight for - let's not backslide because the going is tough. When you read this, the school year 1944-1945 will have ended and what has been done will be history but let us keep in mind those years to come e what kind of life are you going to make for yourself? Don't be ashamed to lead a good life - be kind and be respectful - there you will find permanent satisfaction and you will be proud to live with yourself. To the Class of l945 - success in your every venture and it is my earnest hope that your high school experiences will be beneficial to you in later life. Mr. Secoy-Principal BOARD OF EDUCATICN MR.

I Wonder how many of us thought We would ac- tually reach that goal. But we made it, and now as We look back over our four years here at K.l-l.S. We have a lot of memories to take away with us. As freshmen We qot off to a qood start with Walter Modd as president to guide us. Soon We were well repre- sented in all the activities open to freshmen'-band, choir, 'Echoette staff. In the cheerleading field Elinor Davis made the grade and is one of the finest cheerleaders to be found in these parts.

It Was a great night, but everyone, definitely including the freshmen, was glad when it was safely a thing of the past. So passed our freshman year.

Girl Reserve installation was a little more on the serious side. The boys began to appear in Iunior Hi-Y groups and F.F.A. teams. Dorsey Simmons and Floyd Cowen made the football team and earned themselves an excellent reputation as grid men. Mike Mustain, who is now in the service of his country, made the var- sity basketball team atter only a year as a reserve, so the sopho- more class was well represented.

They marched for all the football games, patriotic celebrations, and festivals and helped with the war effort by recruiting parades for the Navy. They also made a trip to Lima for a huge bond sell- ing parade and program which was also attended by three famous movie stars. The choir had its share ot Work, too, with the annual presentation of the Messiah, and the performance of the pageant Free Men. All in all, We were pretty busy little sophomores.

Before the year was over, Bernard Fowler joined the Marines and Iustin Kay- lor went into the Navy. As our class play we presented The Great Ben Allah, a comedy in three acts. The K.H.S. Swinq Band made its first appearance that February and has been going strong ever since. They can really qive out with the music.

The last tew weeks before school was dismissed we spent our spare time, and a little extra besides, working on plans for the Iunior-Senior Prom. It was a grand affair and Well attended. Then, as we Watched the class of '44 graduate, We got that funny feeling. Only one more year and We would be cast out into the cold, cruel world. IRMA PERINE BETTY PICKERING GENE PRESTON WILLIAM ROSENTHALL EARL RUDASILL LAVERNE RUDASILL Then the summer was over and we were seniors. Our representa- tion in athletics was at its height: eight boys in the football uni- form and four in basketball suits. At the Homecoming ceremonies Elinor Davis was crowned queen and she reigned over the dance which followed. Since the Swing Band became such a success, school dances were held more frequently and became an estab- lished part of our schedule. Class officers this year were lack Val- vano, Bill Bosenthall, and Elinor Nash. f V I if! ffl 3 1 jj' 1: if 5 1 l AW all , man-i. .,,... :ii ISM SHIRLEY RADER 1 E .rw ,f i ,xtrw ROBERT RUDASILL IAMES RAMGE KATHRYN RUMERY GORDON SCHHOEDER MELVIN TURNER DORSEY SIMMONS mg? sy peg? iffy? ff?

H. S. Now, in the World of the Future, it is evident that the labors of the teachers were not in vain, no matter how dismal our outlook seemed to them. Indeed, the good old Senior Class has left its footprints, size l3V2, on all walks of life. In the world of business we find that great railroad magnate, Larry Bolenbaugh, dream- ing of his latest brainstorm, the Kenton- Iumbo Rail Road Co., lnc., Ltd. Chief tech- nical advisors on this stupendous line are Richard Sprang, who builds mammoth bridges, and lames Ramge, who takes care of the curves. Pat Wilson and Ioanne Koch have just put out their Putrid Pink lipstick, being heads of a large cosmetic factory in Kenton, which incidently has grown by leaps and bounds in the last quarter century. Among the new industries cmd enterprizes in the old town, which we used to call dull, are the 3 R's Sleeping Powders Company headed of course by the three Rudasills, Bob, Earl, and Laverne, who know everything about the business: the Bradford Publishing Company run by that able executive, Carol, is turning out an incredible number of Latin ponies priced to meet any student's pock- etbookp Fundom Foundries are producing all sorts of metal objects which go all over the world. Leland has branch factories in the wild West, under the management of Bernard Fowler, and in the Deep South, di- rected by Robert Davis. ln the world of Music we see Maestro Kenneth Hilty and his Melodic Swingsters THE FUTURE on a tour of Asia. Chief crooner is none other than Martha Wentz who lays 'em in the aisles. She is absolutely heavenly when she sings in Chinese, especially Tis a Possibil- ity written by Helen Apostle. Helen also is a celebrated concert pianist and makes num- erous recordings for the Ioseph McCullough Phonograph Company, Science is a field where the Nobel Prize winning chemists, Gordon Karrick and Dorsey Simmins, shine. Their famous test No. 5,555,- 558 brought to the world a spray which makes people invisible. They first tried it out on Betty Hare who turned up months later, in Africa. After such an experience, she and Norma Botchlett opened up a beauty shoppe. Mary Io McFarland is now turning out short stories by the dozens for the Smith and Mauk Newspaper Syndycate of which Eleanor Davis is managing editor and Dor- othy Rodenberger is top censor. Another writer is Bill Rosenthall, who di- vides his flourishing clothing business with penning scathing tomes on the condition of the world. A famous poet is Gayle Baum, who produces doggerel in Spanish for our friends south of the border. Her translator tinto Eng- lishl is the famous personage, Eloise Robin- son, who just adores her work. The agricultural community around Ken- ton has benefitted greatly by the achievement of the agronomists Iohn Switzer and Delbert lohnson who successfully crossed rye and wheat. This accomplishment heralded the inception of a great breakfast food industry in Kenton. Among the numerous manufac- turers of this morning delight are the Brown Brothers. Their head buyers of these agrarian products are Russell Comstock and Pauline Danner, who looks out for the feminine inter- est. Successful farmers in this area include the pig-king, Robert Burkholder, Harold Botchleit, Pat Mullady, and Richard Lowe, who special- ize in raising roosters, and Don Brown, of course, who monopolizes the whole U. S. onion crop. Hollywood, too, has called its allotment from K. H. S. grads in the persons of Tom Taylor, who is the popular Death Ray Tom- my, and the dramatic sweater-girl Marilyn Conover. Charming costumes are ably taken care of by the designer, lack tAdrianJ Val- vano, who subtly combines bright red with blinding green and vivid yellow to make a demure outfit, and Elinor Nash, who affixes lipstick. Walter Baum is a top scenery creator. Chief nurses in Kenton's immense new in- sane asylum for retired pedagogues and past members of the Echo staff are Pat Lanning and Audrey Van Busliirk. Pat also does a little modeling on the side. In Government Service a few Wildcats can be found. Gordon Schroeder is in the Forestry Service and can smell a fire a mile away. Paul Hatcher decided he liked the Navy and stayed in. The law firm of White, Kaser, and Hottrnan is doing a whale of a business. 'l'hey coop- erate magnificently with the police chief, Louise Bloom, and the D. A., Charles Arnett. David Morgan is Probate Iudge, and Vivian Rogers is clerk of courts. Such trials that do go on! CGuessl Norma lean Hall is the leading matron at the clink. Viola Heilman and Pat Wooley tumed out to be women doctors fof course they wouldn't be menl, and Burke McKenna is a man nurse. My, what is this world coming to? The Restaurant Zachariah is really pack- ing in the gluttons. Ray is chief chef land bottle washerl, and Wilma Fultz is its hostess. Among the connoisseurs of its delectable cuisine are Virginia Anderson, who eats tons of spaghetti and Walter Modd, who just likes the surroundings, i.e. the pictures on the wall. Pat Buxton is now the librarian of the Ken- ton Public Library. Top book-catalcguer at the Yelverton branch is Betty Pickering. That famous pugilist, Bubbles Mainer, is now on a tour of South America, of course accompanied by those adroit feminine man- agers, Barbara Stewart and Ramoa Iackson. They've certainly got him well trained. The great aerialist team of Frederick, Bailey, and Waaland talso snake charmers on the sidel have gained for themselves a multitudinous following and are currently playing for the sensational circus outfit, King and Thomas. Ernest Chamberlain is direc- tor of the monkey-training department. Robert Oates and Robert Lamley are skill- ed technicians on Kenton's renowned sani- tation department. Don Reams takes care of the night shift at the alabaster disposal plant. Kenton's colossal radio-television station, W. P. U. is sending out programs every other day now. Caroline Hoppe is an expert an- nouncer specializing in bathing suit news. The Rustic Sextet consisting of Mary Albert, Mary Wuethrick, Ralph Iones, Mary Zach- ariah, Forrest McCune, and Gene Preston are songsters of repute who like to render tear-jerkers. Katherine Rumery and Edna Whitmore are aviatrixes commuting between Pfeiffer's Station and this depopulated metropolis. Running around trying to sell tand he does? cow-electrocution insurance is Donald Steinman. What a sales-line he's gotl lean Vermillion, lane Rogers, and Audrey Mentzer, are successful secretaries for the Kenton Firecracker Corporation, controlled by those ambitious femmes Ann Collett, Helen Downing, and Carolyn Edman, who think up the darndest explosives. Melvin Turner has his contractor's bid in for a new building as soon as the explosives go off. The Frost and Getz Curtain Works have their bid in, tOO. Shirley Armentrout and Margaret Buerger are the new owners of the expanding Simon Kenton Fish Hatcheries. Among the humans who find time to be contented housewives we find Barbara Brown and Ann Gemmell. Barbara wears the pants in her family, and the latter does her house work, pushing through swarms of little red-headed tots.

Mr. Oaklief's freshman football squad promises great things for the future. These boys really worked hard to master football fundamentals. They get little recog- nition for the long hours and hard Work put forth. We feel sure their reward will come in the near future as they take their places with the Varsity.

Market Phone 3121 A J O U R N E Y For several years I had wondered just what Went on in that large building in the east part of Kenton, so I took my camera and decided to see for myself. As I neared the entrance there was a terrific blaring of trum- pets. At the first blast everyone halted in his tracks and stood at attention While Leland Fundom raised the American flag. Another flag Was also raised. It was White with the blue figure of a minute-man in the center. I was told that it was the Schools at War flag, which could only be flown if ninety per cent of the pupils bought war stamps during the preceding week. I learned that it had been flown for several weeks and T H R O U G H K. H. S. would probably continue to fly for weeks to come. Upon inquiring, I learned that those hand- some trumpeteers were Mack Muntsinger, Kenneth Hilty, and Richard Davis. As I walked into the front corridor my eyes rested upon the beautiful memorial of World War II. This was presented by the Student Council, a self governing group selected from the school at large. This memorial of rich wood decorated with gold lettering and ornamentation is indeed a fitting tribute to those Kenton High School students who gave their lives for the American Way of Life. To my left wos d trophy cose filled with symbols of Kenton Highs athletic prowess. She hots indeed earned on enviable reputd- tion down throuqh the yeotrs. They tell d silent story of cooperotion, tedmwork, ond sdcrifice which mutely dispel dll our fedrs for the United Stotes of Tomorrow. To my right wos d door mdrked Superin- tendent. l opened it, wolked in, ond there found Mrs, Mdrie l-lofstedter, Mr. McKinley's secretory, busy with her work. With d pleds- dnt smile she dsked my wdnts. l exploinecl thot l hold decided to see Kenton High School for myself. She suqqested thot l qo to Mr. Secoy's office dnd secure d quide. Followinq Mrs. l-lofsteoter's directions, l come to o door mdrked Principal, ond l entered. There, busily typing from her short- hcind notes, wos Miss Doris Glock, d very efficient secretory if l ever sow one. She qlodly secured cr quide for me ond storied us on our wdy. INNER Our first stop was across from the principa1's office. We knock- ed, and Miss White invited us in to see her geometry class in action. On the bulletin board We saw some fine geometric designs which had been created by the class. While We were taking the picture, the class made a diligent study of angles -camera angles. Our next stop was room one. Mr. Mehaffey put his class in general mathematics on dis- play. But since it was income tax time, the figures on the blackboard were much too pain- ful for us to take: so down the corridor We Went. Here We came upon one of Miss lohnson's Latin classes in deep concentration. No, that is not the ghost of Caesar peeking over a book. That is Bob Sel- lers who almost didn't get into the picture. X As we neared the end of the corridor we heard a whistle blowing and decided to inves- tigate. We found ourselves in a vast room with seats pushed back and action everywhere. For this was a gym class where competition reigns supreme. l would have liked to stay longer, lout my guide said we still had much to cover. Our next visit was another very interesting place. Ma- chines, machines everywhere, but a group of future machin- ists seemed to loe capaloly han- dling them under the guiding hands of Mr. Kreinbihl. Here I found the answer to America's vast war production of ma- chines. Then in Mr. Feller's World His- tory class we found some really studious juniors. We assure you that Gordon Wiles in the foreground is not asleep, he is concentrating. Could those two girls who are dressed alike be twins? Next to the machine shop we found the wood shop under the direction of Mr. Kinney. And who should show up in the middle of our picture, none other than Bob Taylor, one of the Echo photographers. He is usually so busy taking pictures that he seldom gets in one. The next shop was the farm shop. Here Mr. Stuart and his boys were carrying on some very interesting W o r k . The forge and anvil were in use: the large contraption on the floor is a labor-saving device for farm- ers. We have come to the con- clusion that a farmer must be an all-around mechanic. We left there, went along an- other corridor, and came to some steps leading down. There we found a door labeled No Ad- mittance so we went in. Here we found the boilers and stok- ers that keep the school warm, under the watchful eyes of Mr. Newman. We also found Mr. Koch taking a minute's rest from his duties. He said he would be perfectly happy if it never snowed again, :W- H N An agriculture C l a S s W a s working on their farm account books. We were told that it was a much larger class, but the busses Were not running that day, and many boys were ab- sent because of the weather. But we gathered from our visit that there is much more to farming than driving a tractor. As We came out of the boiler room, my guide said, Let's see what's cookin', so We did. lust across the hall We found one of Miss Terrill's home economics classes studying and cooking. From the looks of the group around the stove it might be a banana cream pie, or was I just dreaming? We hated to leave with food in prospect, but we still had a lot to see. Then We heard some Weird sounds which I could not ac- count tor. My guide Warned me not to go into the room as he said it might be full of alliga- tors. I expected to find a biology class, but he explained that alligators are musicians. I took a chance and discovered the band hall with five freshmen catching up on their practice. It must be awfully noisy when the whole band is there. Next on our tour was Mr. Ber- Iien's geography class, studying the world as it was and is and making a few plans which they hope will better it. We soon got the connection for all the fine covers on the Ivanhoe reports, for we found Mr. HacIcney's drawing class across the hall. They really seem interested in their work, don't they? By this time we had covered the first floor, and my guide suggested we see how lunch was coming along. Next door we found Mrs. GramIich's English class in deep concentration. From the Ioolcs of all the reports on the wall above the blackboard, they have been doing some fine work with Ivanhoe, by Edwin Mark- harn, or was it? I am always getting my man-with-the-hoe confused. Up the stairs we went and burst right into the cafeteria kitchen without knocking and found none other than Miss Haber busily engaged in preparing lunch. She offered to pose for us, but in the rush forgot to offer us a sandwich, so we hesitat- ingly left. But first carne Mr. Foraker'S class in social problems where the study of government was in progress. This class seemed to be dominated by boys. Wayne Hottman had given up his pencil for a pointer and was ably lead- ing the discussion. The inter- ested student on the far right is none other than Bill Rosenthall, Editor of the Echo, They rhould tie him in his chair. The question then arose as to what the students did when they were not in class, so we took a peek into the study hall which serves as the cafeteria at noon- time. Here We found a long room of tables Where students were preparing for classes. ln the background is the library which I was soon to see again. I wanted to continue our jour- ney but my guide suggested that since the cafeteria line torrns very quickly, I had better get in line if I wanted anything to eat. We got in front and also got a picture. Dorsey Simmons, Echo photographer, must have been looking for something special. It looks as it the teachers are not so slow when it comes time to eat, for there are four in a row. That food does look good, doesn't it? As We came into the corridor again, we heard some heavenly sounds, Surely, I said, they must be angels. My guide said, Be that as it may, it's Mr. Murphys choir. Our camera caught them in action and while Mr. Murphy doesn't show, it is obvious Where he is, as all eyes are upon him with the exception of four. Well, the photographer has some appeal. Isn't that right Ioanne and loann? . 'fn After lunch it was very ap- propriate to find out why we felt so bad from over-eating. We went to the biology class Where Mr. Oakliei explained some things about this I-lomo Sapiens. I'll never overseat again, at least not until dinner. 22 . -.R -V... -W- On our next cali we were lucky, for we found all of Mrs. But- tolph's assistants in the library. They help keep the place in order and if you can't find out what you want to know, they will help you. Beading from right to left they are: Carol Bradford, seated, the two Bar- baras, Quinn and Fundom, Pat Lanning, Betty Lou McKinley, Pat Wooley, poring over the daily news, and loanne Smith. The next door we opened brought an awful din as only thirty silent typewriters can. But if you want to be a stenograph- er, secretary, or just be able to have others read your writing as Bob Davis does, then this seems to be the place to go. The girl on the extreme left is not camera shy- she is just wondering if Miss Keister can tell she erased, The answer is yes: even I know that. We wanted to try the type- writers, but someone had cov- ered all the keys so we couldn't tell the letters. Next we found out that book- keeping doesn't always refer to those who borrow books, but it is the art of making figures bal- ance without an auditor's asking why. Mrs. Sanborn teaches this class. Next we wandered into those scientific men of the future, Mr. Hackney's physics class. The discussion was over our heads so We took a quick picture before someone asked us to explain the camera lens. We had been to so many classes by this time that we felt our heads swimming with knowledge. At least l did. My guide in- formed me that there were many other sub- jects taught in Kenton High other than those we visited, but after all you can't take a four year course in one day. l started for the exit which a few hours before was the entrance. lust then classes were dismissed. I couldn't resist one last picture. Mr Secoy the principal unknowingly wandered into the picture. We might make a comment upon some deep thought which he was having but that would be mere con- jecture. Let's say his nose itched and let it go at that. So that large building on the hill in East Kenton is not the mystery to me that it once was. My only regret is that l am too old to enjoy such a fine school plant and all the advantages its well equipped shops, classes, and laboratories give. -A Visitor These, our advertisers, have helped make this book possible.
