Do you remember? After a heated campaign, School District No. 91 Cthat is our number, only we never think of it as such,J decided to vote bonds for a new school building and to tear down the old structure or sell part of it fthe present Commercial Hotel is partj and to build a modern schoolhouse which would conform to state requirements. The wrecking process began in the spring of 1915, and on March 17, 1916, the new building was dedicated. So in the fall of 1915 our young feet began to tread the stony path of learning under Miss Loge's kind guidance in the Baptist church. That was an exciting time not only for us but for all the grades and the High School, who held school in several churches and halls. Of the present class only ten have traveled together since that very first enrollment through these twelve years and these ten are: Lucille Berg, Pearl Bodeman, Ardelle Borlaug, Sylvia Cole, Alice Hanson, Hans Hjermstad, Loretta Kolstad, Margaret Leland, Obert Litsheim and Char- lotte Overholt. We are the first class to be graduated which has gone its twelve years in the new schoolhouse. Our beginnings were modest. No great newspaper publicity was ours. only such items as Arden Foss has had an attack of tonsilitis, or Lucille Berg was absent from the first grade on account of illness, or that our teacher, Miss Loge, was one of the teachers to be entertained at the Kober- stein home, found their way into the press. But we must have wielded some unseen influence for during our first year, Kenyon had one of its best basketball team. The line-up was Gates, Leland, Held, Gunderson and Fenne. Then how could the building have been more auspiciously dedicated than with a class like ours to form the cornerstone. March 17, 1916, was one of the greatest days in its history.The auditorium was packed with an audience which had come from town and country to hear a program of speeches and music. Visitors filed through the building so well equip-- ped for training young citizens like ourselves. During the second year of school we had Miss Laura Griffith as teacher. From the school notes of that period we gathered the information that Loretta Kolstad spelled down the room, that we had bought books for a small library of our own, that we had a lovely joint Christmas party with the first grade with a program and games and two little trees. We also learned to tell time by making little clocks with movable hands. We did some original free hand cutting of Dutch posters. Sylvia and Hans had perfect attendance for the entire school year. if T- -, T.HEER13Y.iGf5NDER..,,,,if rm All In the third year Laura Krefting was our teacher. We began to write descriptions, to enjoy stories, and to draw better. Elsie Stoos was our fourth grade teacher. I remember especially the drill in singing. School was closed for some weeks in October because of the serious influenza epidemic then prevailing through the United States. In the fifth grade Miss Gilbert was our teacher. The May Fete in which we took part was a big feature in our history. Our teacher Margaret Johnson in the sixth grade, besides our regular school work, held us to a system of punctual and regular attendance, which Mr. Peterson, the Superintendent, stressed. Certificates of award were given us of which we were very proud and which gave us half holi- days for perfect attendance each month. Of the names cited for perfect at- tendance is that of Gilmar Aase, who moved to Faribault and was on the district-winning basketball team and was listed as an all-State Guard after the State Tournament at Minneapolis this season. f When we came into the seventh grade we had heard of the new teacher, Miss Marie Hooverson of eleven years' experience, and thought she must be rather fearsome, but found her as sweet and nice as any teacher we have ever had. Her strong line was geography and she made the subject very vivid for us. In the eighth grade under Mrs. Legler, we put on an operetta, Snow W hite, which displayed our great musical talent and which was said to be one of the best things ever presented by the grade children. And then came High School! ! ! I suppose that every class entering High School feels as if they were Ivy Green as none before them. How far removed the upper class-men seemed. It was as if we gazed at them across an ocean and yet so ter- ribly near did they seem, that we shrank from their great critical gaze. We mustered up enough courage, however, after a time to elect class officers: ' President-Loretta Kolstad. Vice president-Margaret Leland. Treasurer-Izetta Lokensgard. Class adviser-Miss Eckman. The High School faculty royally entertained the pupils and the grade teachers at the Tourist Camp on October 10th. But then came the Sophomore Initiation Party which dispelled all the courage we had been able to cultivate during the first weeks of school. Beware! Prepare! Be There! read the invitation. The Sophomores had a most enjoyable time!!! But when the Freshman-Sophomore Party took place November 16th, the Freshmen proved themselves good entertainers. 18 T, TW? GREY GPSNQER. In an Algebra Contest held in January between three divisions, final honors went to Loretta Kolstad. In the Class Tournaments of the Spring of '24 the Freshman girls won from the Sophomore girls, 13-O, while the Freshmen boys lost to the Soph- omores, 15-8, and in the championship game between the Freshmen girls and Senior girls, 5-16. The game was not as one-sided as the score would seem to indicate. -Kenesota, April, 1924. In our Sophomore year the following officers were elected: President-Obert Litsheim. Vice president-Charlotte Overholt. Secretary-treasurer--Sylvia Cole.. Adviser-Martha Litz. We sponsored the Carson-Wold concert. But our Initiation Party for the Freshmen had the teeth taken out of it by a ruling that we could not provide the usual menu for the Freshmen. Gypsy Rover was given this year with Sophomore assistance. The officers for the Junior year were: President-David Svennungsen. Vice president-Sylvia Cole. Secretary-Treasurer-Loretta Kolstad. Adviser-Martha Litz. We gave a movie, Oh, Doctor, as a benefit for our Senior Banquet which was held in the parlors of the new First Lutheran church. The Senior class officers are: President-Allan Finseth. Vice president-Arden Foss. Secretary-treasurer-Charlotte Overholt. Adviser-Helen A. Shepard. In the early fall we held a Carnival, a benefit for the annual and secur- ed the girls' class championship in basketball. The class play is The Meal Ticketf' 4 We had a number of our class in Pickles, the operetta given by the Glee Club under Miss Grinley's instruction, and we are now preparing for the District Music Contest of High Schools to be held at Carleton college. Our President, Allan Finseth, won the local declamatory and the Sub- district, so he appeared in three contests. This attempt to give the History of the Class of '27 does not begin to do justice to every individual effort, nor to the many events of their twelve years, nor to the high esteem in which we hold our High School Faculty but we hope that our friends will consider this annual a fitting memorial of the passing of our class. --MARGARET LELAND, '27.

GANDER Gila,-az Hrnpherg Said I to a friend at the close of a day In 1947, the last week in May, As we happened to meet in a famous hotel In a city of interest we all know well, Let's have a good visit along with our lunch, And see, if we can, what became of the bunch That used to belong to the old Kenyon High, When we, as Juniors, watched the Seniors get by And after spending a good deal of time, We were finally rewarded with this inferior rhyme: Pearl Bodeman, a missionary fan, Is helping a long a cannibal clan. Ardelle Borlaug, whose art is rare Has finished a painting entitled Nowhere Allan Finseth, too, is doing his share, A janitor not at Madison Square. As an athletic director Arden Foss has filed At the State School for Crippled Childf' The Pool in Frogtown is the song's name, That brought Mae Egland musical fame. Olga Egland, who sells for Lydia Pinkham. Earned money enough to ride in a Lincoln. Lillian Blaine, who is a teacher of Latin. Can still be found in old Manhattan. Obert Litsheim, a regular jay Went to the U to teach Croquet. The Hjermstad boy as we all know, Is traveling now with a medicine show. Lester Strandemo, that pious man, Is preaching at New Amsterdam. A better detective has never been seen. Than a lad by the name of Art Holien. Ray Wickum, a noted lawyer to be, Has started a history of his family trec. THE GREY GANDER 23 Frances Moseson purchased a hearse, lt will come in handy as she is a nurse. lzetta Lokensgard with much vigor and vim Has just accomplished the English Channel swim.

For about five hours, each day of the nine months, we were forced to bear the taunts of our upper classmen. However, we were lucky in that we were not given the usual initiation the night of the Sophomore party. Though a few fell by the wayside most of us succeeded in getting our four credits and becoming full-fledged Sophomores. It was not long before we obtained the 'wise' part, for when the Terman Group Test of Mental Ability was given, we Sophomores received the highest average, with 100.6 per cent. The highest I. Q. in the High School was 128 per cent and that honor also fell to a girl from our class. That year our class was repre- sented on the football team and the Sophomore boys' basketball team won the interclass championship. March 17, 1926, we gave our program, Several Spirited Sophomore Scenes. It was a great success, and much credit is due our able adviser, Miss Flygare. As Juniors we are well represented in athletics, both boys' and girls', and many are taking important parts in the two literary societies, the Delphians and Philomathians. Our Junior benefit, a play entitled The Charm School, was given December 21. Our greatest event this year was the J unior-Senior banquet, given April 30. We hope our Senior year will be as successful and enjoyable as our three preceding ones, that we can truly say that our High School career has been a profitable achievement. -MARJORIE KOLSTAD, '28 TEL?

There are now forty-seven freshies in this class of which the majority are from the country. At first we were very shy and hardly dared to leave our seats. Most of us were not accustomed to the ways of the High School and we knew that the least little mistake would be an enjoyment for the upper classmen. As time passed, however, the Freshmen became more bold and they now walk around the assembly as if they were Seniors. Our. first big event was the Initiation Party given bv the Sophomores. This was not as hard on us as we thought it would be for it was greatly enjoyed by all of us. We gave them a return party the early part of this year. Our officers and class ad- viser were then elected after which we bevame real members of the High School. Probably the hardest thing for us to do was to give a program to the other classes in the assembly. This was required by each class every month. The Freshmen have been very successful in the school events this vear. They were represented bv Oswald Aase and Robert Litsheim as members of the football squad, while Morris Knopf and Robert Litsheim were members of the basketball team. Dorothy Gunderson and Phyllis Gunderson were members of the girls' basketball team. In the Declama- tory Contest Edna Reko and Phyllis Gunderson won first prize on their readings. A great deal of the success of the Freshman Class is due to the careful guidance of their class adviser, Miss Flom. -ROBERT LITSHEIM, '30, THE GREYWQANQEB 3 0 :Freshmen 0115155 flbfftrerz President-Robert Litsheim Treasurer-Dorothy Gunderson Vice president-Phyllis Gunderson.

Therefore the commonwealth of Minnesota wishing to foster this principle established Normal Training Departments in High Schools, the sole pur- pose of which to give the rural teacher a training commensurate with his job, which is the largest in ine educational field. The rural schools en- roll over 50 per cent of the c?.il1.iren between the ages of 6 and 12. There- fore the major strength of the Democracy rests upon the type of citizen- ship developed in the Little Red Schoolhouse. The course consists of a review of the common branches to lay a strong scholastic foundation plus methods and development of skill in presenting There are also phases of industrial and special branches in sanitation. health. rura. school management, and community life. Through practice teaching the student demonstrates his ability to plan, to motivate and to preflent subject matter in the different grades in the public and rural schools. Observation work precedes each period of teaching. Each spring a primary class is organized to acquaint the student with the problei is of primary work. During the past four years ninety pu- pils have been enrolled for a period of ten weeks. The apportionment of S5500 earned by the department has been turned over to the school district. When the department was organized in 1915 anyone having eight high school credits could enter. Since then the requirements for entrance have been raised until now the student is required to be a High School graduate with certain scholastic attainments. With this course and one year of successful teaching in the rural schools the student is entitled to twelve credits in any Teachers' College in Minnesota. Many of the Ken- yon graduate: have availed themselves of this advantage and are found holding positions in High and Graded schools and many other profes- sions. -LORENA BOWE. 32 THE GREY GIQEDER ' 99 Elie meal Elrrket The Senior Class Play, The Meal Ticket,', which was, under the able direction of Miss Helen Shepard, given on May 12th and 13th.

Act I opens with Clara, the colored maid, and an intruder, by name, David Marshall, upstage. He wishes to see Miss Purcell, but is told that her day is already planned and that he will not be able to see her. He leaves and the staff enters, followed by Miss Phoebe. She discusses the matters of importance in the departments of The Early. Bird Tea- room, and while so doing is interrupted by the ringing of the telephone. It is Mr. Arthur Lacey, a theatrical producer, who loves Miss Purcell. They discuss the affairs at the approval of the entire staff. As Mrs. Holley is about to leave, she discovers a strange man crouching in the hall. Barthol- omew brings him in-it is David. Miss Phoebe seems to recognize him, and she orders the staff to their work. As the plot develops David makes himself known as the husband of Miss Phoebe, who, after their marriage, deserted her. He is a playwright, and has come back to her in search of help, being penniless and alone. She agrees to take him back on one condition, and that is that he be one of her waiters. He decides to accept her offer for the reason that he must finish his play. -gg M F-H THE GREY GANDELR W 33 Act II opens with David Marshall dictating this play to Penny, the cashier. Mr. Lacey arrives, and David learns some points about writing a play. The staff and David plan to act the play out, and do so in the second scene of Act II. As they are doing so Joe and Frank, engage in a brawl just as Mr. Lacey and Miss Phoebe enter. Consequently she discharges her staff, in spite of their entreaties to be taken back. Later Mr. Lacey meets David and David tells him that Phoebe is his wife, and that he CArthurJ can't marry her. Lacey is crestfallen at this, but makes the proposition to David that if he will relinquish all claim on Phoebe, he will produce the play. David seems reluctant at first, but on hearing that Phoebe does not love him, he accepts Lacey's offer. He leaves and Phoebe enters. Arthur makes known David's allowing her to be free, and she seems a bit disappointed. As they talk, the staff again begs to be taken into her employ by saying it with flowers. They are forgiven and proceed to re-establish themselves once more. Phoebe learns the truth of the matter and decides that she will not marry Arthur as a result of his scheming. He professes his love for her, but she spurns him, and goes to David, who tears up his contract and tells her of his love for her. She takes him back, but this time as manager of The Early Bird Tearoom, and he tells her that no wife of his is to be his meal ticket? The love affairs of Pierre and Penny provided diversion from the main plot. QlJJI11II1PI1lI 21119111 iEXP1'BiEP5 Baccalaureate services will be held at the First Evangelical Lutheran Church. Rev.

Mr. C. H. Gorman had charge of the department the first two years, and Miss Ida N. Peterson this year. The aim of this department is to give the pupils training in vocational education by developing certain marketable skills, used in business, such as typewriting, shorthand and bookkeeping. These subjects and Modern Business have been offered this year. There are eighty-two pupils enrolled in the Commercial Department at this time. Of this number twenty-seven are taking Typewriting and Shorthand, thirty-one Bookkeeping and twenty-four Modern Business.. This year We entered the State Commercial Contest held in May. Several pupils have won awards given by the typewriter companies for writing at the rate of 30, 40 and 50 net words per minute in fifteen- iminute tests. IDA PETERSON. Quinn iirnnumirz The purpose of Home Economics in the High School is to give train- ing in the fundamental activities of homemaking and an understanding of the responsibilities involved therein which will enable girls to partici- pate in the vocation of homemaking with interest, confidence, skill, and appreciation of good standards. The first semester is devoted to Food Study and Cookery. The pur- pose of this course is to teach the principles underlying selection, pur- chase and preparation of food for simple meals. In the fall the class begins with the canning of fruits and vegetables which are used during the year for meal projects. These meals consist of simple breakfasts, luneheons, and dinners prepared by just two girls, in order that these girls may encounter all the necessary steps in the planning, preparing and serv- ing of a meal. During the second semester the girls take up the studv of Textiles iii order to make them more intelligent buyers. Then, that they might learn standards of clothing construction, they sew several cotton gar- ments. The Home Economics II class continues with a textile study, but to furnish an opportunity to develop skill in selection and construction of elct ing, a wool dress and a iioake-over problem must be carried out. During the last half of the year much time is spent in the studv of foods for not only the family as a whole, but for each individual in the familv. Quite an extensive study of Home Equipment creates a keen- er interest in home life and its duties. Therefore by the end of the second year the student has a greater appreciation of home activities and respon- sibilities.

T. M. Knauss, vice-president and Mrs. R. Leland, secretary. The following year the president and secretary were the same and first vice-president, Rev. David Svennungsen and second vice-president Rev. C. Nauman. In October, 1925, the following officers were elected: President, Andrew Finstueng first vice-president, Rev. C. Naumang second vice- president, Mrs. O. C. Cole, and secretary, Miss Gertrude Berg. During the year 1925 twenty-six meetings were held regularly each month and excellent programs were given. The Association even in the first year was responsible for agitation which resulted in our present village milk ordinance. In October, 1926, Mrs. O. C. Cole was elected president, Andrew Fin- stuen, first vice-president, Miss Gertrude Berg, secretary. This year there has been a paying membership and attendance is increasing. Meet- ings are held the second Monday of each month and subjects of interest to the community are discussed. The Association has gone on record as objecting to the questionable amusement companies which held their entertainments in the vacated alley next to the school grounds. It is the hope of the Association to have every parent in the district a member as the work of such a body should come very close to every father and mother. Elihrarg Our alumni will be interested to know that the old physics labora- tory has been remodeled and is now serving as a reading and reference room. The wall dividing the old library and the science room was taken away making one large room. The class of '26 furnished equipment for the new room which consists of three long tables and chairs. Also the class of '27 gave a set of Harvard Classics, consisting of fifty-two volumes.

The above preamble I'll right now explain, Why! sure it's the carnival gets all this fame, It was held on the 28th of October last, And on the Gym floor of K. H.

At one door you were sold tickets by maidens so fair, And at second glance it proved Farrankop and Flygare The tickets they sold were red and all sizes, But later at Bingo some even resulted in prizes, The way they raked in the shekels so golden, ls a story that in history will surely be tolden. Escaping the ticket seller's clutches, I wandered around To see if a nice quiet corner to watch could be found, But alas! all was so happy and cheerful and gay, If one wanted quiet away he should stay. l found nothing but something found me And that was the raffle, with prizes of three. The Japanese garden was a beautiful spot, Brt ,Norwegians as Japs just miss the dot, The tea they served was both hot and cold, That a wafer you held you had to be told.

Outside guarding the door a damsel stood, Dressed as gypsy-who'd thought Charlotte could? At the Country Store I fear several got stung, For in some packages were gifts just for fun, And as they looked them carefully o'er, They're positive they've seen them somewhere before, The Beauty Shop sure would at least make you care, Where Berg and Bodeman turned out beauties so rare In one corner were sales so sweet, The Martha Washington Shop itself was a treat, The freaks drew crowds from near and wide Where Cordes was on a chair with Nerem at her side. The Style Show went on with perfect success, And if asked if they liked it, the crowd answered YES Balloonsl Caps! Confetti! Lester sobbed, The crowd heard it and the stand was mobbed. 4'Hot Dogs I cried Arden from nearby, The people maliciously made him keep up his Hfryf' They were so peppy and ready to laugh, That I laughed and most busted in half. So the evening was too soon gone, I thought as I trailed after the throng, Tho' happy, but weary, homeward were going, Kind words of praises on performers bestowing, They give full credit to this bright, peppy class, And wished them success as thru' life they pass. The class in return wish them the same, Now after the hard work is over and done, It seems it has been nothing else than fun. And now that the time comes for us to part, Our good luck wishes all come from the heart.

A Sophomore, who called off the names of the Freshmen in the order in which they were to be initiated, was stationed at the south door. Each Freshman was blindfolded and led into the manual-training room, where he was beautified. This consisted of wasting perfectly good paints 011 their faces, although a few had quite a bit on already. I Each Sophomore then took charge of the Freshman assigned to him. The latter had to eat Caesar's eyes, fgrapesb, and also angleworms, macaronij, duly seasoned with spices. Among the other various stunts was the operation, The victim was forced to listen to plans for bee heading him. A piece of ice was placed on his neck and then he was band-- aged up. After the Freshies were initiated everyone assembled in the gymnasium, which was decorated with our colors, purple and gold. A program followed. Many Freshmen were called upon to perform. One boy and girl received much applause for making a successful attempt at Charlestoning. After the program many games were played and ice cream and wafers were served. More games were played and after the gong rang a big yell was given. -PAULA HANSON. E112 Return lgarig Ah! at last the great day has arrived. It was the day for the Fresh- men to give their return party to the Sophomores. We all remembered the splendid time we had at the initiation party which was given by the Sophomores. Therefore, we wanted to give the Sophomores a good time at our return party. The Freshmen worked all morning decorating the Gym, and planning the events for the evening. They hung blue and white maize trimmings from the ceiling. Streamers of many different colors were stretched from end to end. , A masquerade party had been planned and the one wearing the best costume would win a prize. At seventy-thirty in the evening the party began. The Gym was soon filled with gay students who were hidden from view by their costumes. Some were dressed as Mexicans, some as cowboys, some as farmers, and many other va.rieties of costumes were used to show that it was a real marquerade party. After all had arrived many popular games were played. Four in the boat, the farmer in the dell. and other games were played which kept our interest throughout the night. Arden Foss received the prize for wearing the best costume. He wore a suit with pillows, or something inside which made him look very fat. No one was able to identify him until he took his mask off. Lunch .was served, after which everyone departed, having had what the Freshmen hope, a very enjoyable time. -ROBERT LITSHEIM.

The program was presented by about sixty-of the grade students and proved to be very successful. The synopsis was the historical story of Captain John Smith and the Indian Maid Pocahontas. The first act pictured the landing of John Smith and the Englishmen. About eight boys acted as sailor lads and gave a group of songs and drills. The election of a governor took place and preparation was made to trade with Indians for provisions. During the intermission the Indian Chorus gave its Invocation to the Sun God. The second act portrayed the Indian camp of Chief Powhatan. The white messengers were prisoners, but they were saved from death by the Indian Princess Pocahontas.

Beep Sea Bevel For three weeks preceding the Deep Sea Revel mystery prevailed in our High School. Rumors of bathing suits, overalls and long, fierce, sharp shimmering pirate's knives, and fears of going to a watery grave in the gymnasium, circulated. The memorable night arrived, February 24th. All the fancy costumes, anticipated, were conspicuous by their absence. Although not clothed to represent Pirates, Sea-Dogs, or Buccaneers, the indomitable spirit was there nevertheless. The Pirates and Buccaneers were hosts to the Sea-Dogs who were suc- cessful in selling the most subscriptions in the magazine campaign. All the entertainment provided was supposed to occur on board ship. First the sailors were tattooed with their respective team letter. After casting moorings many other nautical gamespwere played. The refreshment committee succeeded in unlocking Davy J ones' locker and secured cake and ice cream for the guests. A grand march concluded the entertainment after which the com- mand Disperse ye rebels was given. Elie Art Exhibit I For one week in April the High School and the Grades studied famous pictures. Replicas of some of the most well known paintings were sent out by the Colonial Art Company free of charge. The small sum of fifteen cents was asked from each student and the money gained from this, amounting to about fifty dollars, was used by the High School in buying pictures. Every person in the school visited these pictures at least foui times during the week and a great deal was learned about them. 44 THE GREY GAN DER 1Birkle5 Given March 10 and March 11 under direction of Miss Grinley.

Austin Bevins, at the death of his aunt, inherited a school for girls at which Miss Hays and Miss Curtis were able but old-fashioned teachers. Among the students were Sallie Boyd, Elise Benedotti, Muriel Doughty, Ethel Spelvin and Lillian Stafford. Austin engaged his friends, George Boyd, Tim and Jim Bradbury and David Mac- Kenzie as teachers. But as a result, varied complications resulted form the introduc- tion of masculine instructors in feminine school. These were in the nature of love affairs. The most serious of these was Elise's love for Austin. lt finally became seemingly unbearable for poor Elise, who ran away. Austin was forced to pursue partly from his own desire, and from the compulsion of Mr. Johns, Qwho, by the way, was the divorced husband of Miss Hays.J Austin and Elise returned to find two other affairs blossoming out, the reconcil- iation of Miss Hays and Mr. John, and the infatuation of both Tim and Jim for Sallie Boyd. Thus the curtain fell for the last time on a see te in vhfch .Kristin seemed convinced that charm could be used as well as taught. 46 THE GREY GANDER Berlanmtnrg Glnnteat The Declamatory Contest is considered a very strong and instructive activity in any school.

On Monday, February 28th, Edna Reko, Phyllis Gunderson and Allan Finseth, accompanied by Miss Flygare, the coach, Went to the Sub-Dis- trict contest held at Dodge Center. At this contest Allan Finseth won first place. Although Phyllis Gunderson and Edna Reko did not win first place they deserve ample credit. On March 19th, when Allan Finseth represented Kenyon High School at the District contest held at Hopkins, Minnesota, he received third place. He has a fine stage appearance and speaks very distinctly. Allan was prominent in student affairs, and served as class president in his Senior year.

It is through this medium that we are able to express that which we really feel In this art, thought in rhythm together with a quick mind, are the main factors. Every person has a desire for self-expression and music furnishes him the best field through which he may express the stirring of his inward nature. The thrill of hearing a selection is not to be compared with the thrill of being a party to the production of that selection. Our Glee Clubs-Boys' and Girls'-have been organized with the idea of not only giving the student a chance to express through music, that which he feels, but to develop team work and a common group feeling. Music, as well as other arts, requires practice for its perfection. Very satisfactory results have been produced during the year, and we feel cer- tain that in a short time, more students will take keener interest. The Girls' Glee Club consists of fourteen members, namely: Sylvia Cole, Ardelle Borlaug, Helen Blaker, Charlotte Overholt, Frances Moseson, Phyllis Gunderson, Alice Gunderson, Charlotte Jacobson, Pearl Bodeman, Clarece Har- rison, Virginia Reko, Edna Reko, Dora Wickum and Margaret Leland. The Boys' Glee Club consists of twelve members, namely: Obert Litsheim, Malcolm Overholt, Donald Bakke, Raymond Wickum, Osborn Rood, Adolph Rumpho. Hans Hjermstad, Goodwin Remme, Arden Foss, Arnold Amundson, Curtis Kauffman, and William Flom, Edna Markuson-Accompanist. Miss Grinley-Glee Club Director. Our participation in the music contest this year is the first of its kind. We were very interested in having our school represented, but we are also interested in giving members of the organization musical ex- perience. We feel that we have taken a step toward further development of music in our High School. Not to win a prize or defeat an opponent, but to pace each other on the road to excellence. The Minnesota Public School Music League, together with the Gen- eral Extension Division of our University, have co-operated in presenting an educational device , as Prof. Irving W. Jones calls it, the staging of a High School music contest. From the list of selections from the world's best compositions author- ized by the Music Division of the General Federation, twenty-four numbers were presented to the High School during its daily recreation period and over a period of two weeks. These classics were given as piano numbers, violin solos, and by means of victrola records. A coiiclvdinfr test resulted in three papers of such excellence that the Round Table Club voted to give three smaller prizes rather than one first award, and these went to Arden Foss, Charlotte Jacobson and Edna Marlquson. This is only a beginning. It is to be hoped that this pioneer attempt will take root and bring forth increased interest in the direction of musi- cal appreciation. 50 Tljllil GAlSIkDER M Glalenhar fur Srhnnl Hear, 1925-'27 ., , xxy x QXY 5wX ix 5 5 S .5 Q :lf U T N ' ' ' A Q' e' e L 9 WG?

'X We . ,,,eTHE.9REY SHNDER c . foil, Zliunihall In the beginning a review of athletics at any institution, it is always customary to compare the present athletic administration with that of the years past. Such a comparison would be very favorable to the present athletic director at Kenyon. Miss Berg, Lawrence Picha and Mr. Lokens- gard have in latter years proved themselves very capable and efficient coaches and directors of the athletic destiny of Kenyon High School. Kenyon teams have in all sports proved themselves to be sportsmanlike losers as well as winners. That, in itself, is a real accomplishment. So let's give credit where credit is due. , The prospects for 1926 in football were very good. The schedule of games was very hard and enthusiasm ran high. But ineligibilities and injuries took their toll, and the season was not as successful as first expected. However, all of the games were close and hard-fought, and a break or two would have turned the tide at any time. The first game of the season was played at Faribault with the Shat- tuck second team. Both Kenyon and Shattuck played strong defensive games and waited for a break. It came, but not for Kenyon. Late in the third quarter Ingle threw a beautiful pass to Litzenbergen, who ran about thirty yards for a touchdown, and the only points of the game, with 6 to 0 in favor of Shattuck. 58 THE GREY GANDER Kenyon next met the strong Northfield eleven on the Carleton grid- iron. The game was marred by fumbling on both sides. None of the fum- bles, however, resulted disastrously. In the last few minutes of the play, Sole, Northfield quarterback, kicked a field goal from the thirty-yard line, winning the game for his team, 3 to 0. The following week Kenyon played its best game of the season when they held the strong Owatonna team to a 0 to 0 tie. Owatonna, with its dangerous passing combination, was doped to win, but Kenyon held them step by step and outplayed them in many departments of the game. This was, without question, the best game of the season from a Kenyon standpoint. The team suffered a severe reversal of form after this game, however, and dropped the remaining games of the schedule to Waseca and Fari- bault. The Waseca game was 5-6 at the half, but Waseca came back strong in the last half and ran away with the victory. The Faribault game was all Faribault, altho, it must be admitted some lucky breaks were responsible for some of their touchdowns, one of which they made on a fumble. and two on long forward passes. In this game the Kenyon boys suffered their worst defeat of the season, the game ending with the score 32-0 against them. Altho the season was not as successful as it might be, all of the players must be commended for their sportsmanlike fight, and the never- give-up spirit. The players were captained by Raymond Wickum through the season. The regular line-up of the team is as follows: Raymond Wickum, captain, fullback. Arthur Holien. Allan Finseth, right Adolph Rumpho, quarterback. Lester Strandemo, center. Arthur Pagel, left guard. Goodwin Remme, left tackle. Obert Litsheim, left end. John Simonson, right guard. William Flom, right tackle. Marvin Sathrum, right end. Substitutes--Aase, Engeseth, Callister, R. Litsheim, Nodland, Weum. Albright. -AVERY FINSTUEN. lghgairal Glraining During the past two years regular physical training periods have been given to all grade pupils as well as to the High School department. A complete set of playground apparatus has been erected on the play- grounds. An added feature which proved very successful this past winter was our ice rink. We understand that the K. H. S. is going after the winter outdoor activities in earnest next season. 1- 1..- 1TliE-S3.RE.Y..,GiWDE.1i 1 1-1m5?, Zgauakvthall The basketball season at Kenyon is to be considered very successful. Coach Picha started out without a regular from last year's district cham- pionship team, and moulded a team of which We can be justly proud. The boys defeated the strong Owatonna team, and won easily from our biggest rival, Zumbrota, in the annual goat game. The only defeats in the regular season were administered by Northfield and Faribault, who were contenders for the state championship, and the Kenyon Golf Club, a strong independent team. The scores of the games and the line-ups were as follows. Kenyon, 28-Wanamingo, 8. Kenyon, 18-Alumni, 13. Kenyon, 26-Wanamingo, 12. Kenyon, 11-Northfield, 31. Kenyon, 26-Owatonna, 25.

Substitutes-Albright, Knopf, Foss, Simundson 60 -THE GREY GANDER Girls' Basket Ball Team 1925-'27 In spite of the loss of almost the entire team of the previous season, the girls had a very good line-up this year. The new players as well as the old ones showed the results of the splendid training of Coach Berg. Margaret Leland, the captain, filled her place very ably and was very coin- petent. The line-up was as follows: Margaret Leland, forward. Charlotte Jacobson, forward. Theodora Parker, forward. Virginia Reko, forward. Ruthie Corrigan, guard. Gladys Wardal, guard. Tillie Knutson, guard. Dorothy Gunderson, guard. Alice Hanson, substitute guard. The game with Randolph, there, was the most exciting one of the season. The playing was extremely fast and the passes used by Kenyon were high due to the small players on the Randolph team. The Kenyon team was more competent in offensive playing than in defensive, but the Randolph guards were so good that every basket made was the result -. 1 -THE GR33DLG5El?EB1in1+,,lQL of a bad fight. At the end of the first half it seemed that victory was decidedly in the hands- of the opponents, but with one minute left to play, the score being 20 to 21, two tries at basket-shooting by Kenyon at the last minute would have meant a victory for us, but both were missed by rolling into the basket and scarcely out again. It was apparent however, that our girls had the superior team. All of the games were exciting and well-played so Kenyon High cer- tainly is justified in being proud of the girls basketball team of '26 and '27. The scores of the games were for the season: Kenyon, -West Concord, 35 Kenyon. -West Concord, 34 Kenyon, 21-Randolph, 24. Kenyon, -Randolph, 21. Kenyon 32- West Concord, 17. CHARLOTTE OVERHOLT Ilnter-0115155 Eames The Inter-Class Basketball tournament was held March 7th, 8th and 1ft'1. The first games were played between the' Senior and Freshmen koys, the Junior and Sophomore girls. The Senior boys won an easy victory from the Freshmen by a score of 44 to 12. The Junior girls conquered the Sophoniores by a score of 14 to 6. The next games were between the J unior :wel Sophomore boys, the Senior and Freshmen girls. The Junior boys won 33 to 9, the Senior girls 55 to 3. The final games were by far the most excitingfand the utmost enthusiasm was displayed by both the players and students. The Junior boys captured a hard-fought victory from the Seniors by a score of 12 to 15. The Senior girls defeated the Juniors 18 to 15. After the tournament and the closing of the basketball season everyone felt satisfied that victory had been given where it was most de- served. --ALLAN FINSETH. 1 62 - THE GREY GANDER Aihletir Zlhzrnrhz The Annual published in 1923 contained all the scores of Athletic Con- tests up to and including that year.
