It was terribly hot today. ,lust outside of Carthage we stopped to get some pop. Dorrine Foster was running the stand. While there the radio was on and We heard, over WCAZ, Marian Sizemore singing with Luella Haffner accompanying. Arrived at Peoria in time to catch the Chicago train. Chicago, June 18, 1948 Dear Diary: Arrived in Chi about 9:00 this morning. Eldon Loring was at the in- formation desk in Dearborn Station. He advised us to go to the Jones Hotel. Betty Roberts and Doris Coffey seem to be good managers. Evelyn Rosencrans was typing in the office and I guess was doing all right. just after we had registered, Charles Cofhn and Lester Salzer, the two super-salesmen for the Goof-ball-and-bag-factory, came in. June 19, 1948 Dear Diary: Nothing exciting happened today. 1 saw in the paper, however, that Willola Sharkey was married. Also that Beatrice Rowan was dramatic instructor in one of the high schools. June 20, 1948 Dear Diary: Excitement was running high today. 1 boarded the plane and guess what! Ernest Shillak was pilot, Wilma Drummond was the stewardess, and Hubert Loewenstein was a passenger. iWe had a gay old time remi- niscing. Hubert told me that Ralph Brust and Bud Heineman were play- ing for the St. Louis Cards. Wilma said that Betty Lou Henry had finally married Ray. New York, June 21, 1948 Dear Diary: We arrived in the city of bright lights today. Went in taxi, driven by Charles Eppers, to the Waldorf Astoria. Russell Meister was doorman, and very efficient. We went down to dinner tonight and found that Doro- TWENTY-FOUR THE 1938 COMMENT thea Jones was our waitress. What was most surprising was to find Howard Gibson in a monkey suit acting in the capacity of head waiter. After dinner we decided to go down to Harlem. Clyde Bowman, Eleanor Frye, Pauline Holley, and Evelyn Wilkerson Were in the floor show at the Cotton Club. After truckin' around for awhile, we went back to the hotel. I noticed a large gas station on 5th Avenue and thought the attendants looked familiar. I found out later that they were John Boone and Donald Buerklin. In the lobby of the hotel we were paged by Robert Bundy and found a telegram from Lenace Anderson. It seems that she, Vivian Enoch, and Mary Ruth Guess are running a boarding school and wanted us to visit them. June 22, 1948 Dear Diary: We went to the Roxy theatre found Doris Howell as ticket girl. Ed Goez is manager and James Tuttle an usher. We sail tomorrow. I can hardly wait. June 23, 1948 Dear Diary: One perfect day has just passed. It seems that the class of '38 has taken over the 20th Century. As I was walking down the deck, I met Lois Biddenstadt and Marcia Madole. They had heard from Helen Renard. She is running a date bureau at Fort Madison. I was in need of recreation so decided to go swimming. Ray Reeder was life guard at the pool and insisted that it was nice work if you could get it. While strolling on deck, I met Robert Thiem and Bill Cloud. It seems that they are sailing the seven seas in search of material for those, l'Wild Bill Cloudu stories. They invited me to have a drink with them so we went down to the fountain. Ray Sorenson was the soda jerker. We ordered three glasses of milk. I was quite tired so retired to my state- room. June 24, 1948 Dear Diary: Tonight was the great costume ball. I had a marvelous time. All day I prepared for it. This morning I got up early and went on deck. Rose- mary Heinz and Mary Henke were playing deck tennis. My appointment with the hair dresser was for 10:00 so I hurried there. However, I found Madeline Callahan and Carrie Burkharldt ahead of me. Ardath Welling- ton manages the salon and she specializes in cork screws and frizzles. Wayne Mollers is her supposed French hair stylist. Nellie Kampe did a very good job on my nails. After leaving the salon I met Doris Swan and Frank Venning. They are on an expedition to South Africa where they expect to catch some beautiful butterflies. My escort, Dr. Wilber Zilch, came for me about 8:00. I wore my love- TWENTY-FIVE THE 1938 COMMENT ly new gown designed in Paris by Mademoiselle Agnes Kane. Joseph Cushman and his cornfed swing band provided the music for the evening. Two members of the band seemed familiar so I asked Joe about it. He said that one of the violinists was Floyd Cramer and their pianist was Delores Thon. Under Joe's direction the band has traveled far and wide. Ilm awfully sleepy now so I had better save the rest till later. Good- night my Diary. London, July 5, 1948 Dear Diary: We landed at Southhampton yesterday, but I have been so busy these last days that I have neglected you sadly. Today Mother and I arrived in London. Many of my classmates are here. While riding through town, I saw Stanley Mayer. He is a London bobby now. On arrival at the hotel Imet Edwin LoefHer and Claude Freeman. They are here to compete in the British open golf turnament. They said they had been out to Oxford University where Earl Haase is coaching rugby and Wilfred Cresswell is professor of chemistry. We sat in the lobby and read the newspaper. It seems that Dorothy Vaughan has made quite a name for herself. She is doing social reform work. According to her latest interview, she has discovered that cars are not ruining the younger generation, but the younger generation is ruining the cars. This afternoon Mother and I went out to the Tower of London. Allen Criswell was our guide. We went to several other places of interest about the city. Mother thinks we should leave for Berlin next Monday. Berlin, July 9, 1948 Dear Diary: Berlin is terribly fascinating. Upon arriving here this morning we came to the hotel immediately. Mother was tired after our trip so she decided to take a nap. I was so excited and enthused that I took a walk. The first place I came to was the great Berlin library. I had heard so much about it that I decided to go in. The Hrst person whom I saw was Jeanette Aitken. She is a librarian. We talked for a while and she informed me that Dorothy Clem conducted a school for yell leaders about a block away, and it was very hard to study under such conditions. She also said that Helen Oliver was the owner of a large roller skating rink, at which Marjorie High, Margaret Mecum, and Eugenia Jobe were the best customers. We are leaving for Paris on Friday, so please don't be disappointed if I make no entries between now and Friday night. Paris, July 13, 1948 Dear Diary: It is Friday 13th but a very lucky day for me. As we left Berlin we also TWENTY-s1x THE 1938 COMMENT left George Jones. I saw him running up the track trying to catch the train. Paris is very exciting and romantic. Mother has met some kind of a French nobleman who has invited us to dinner tomorrow. I can hardly wait. Today Mother and I went on top of the Eifel tower. Of all people to meet, I met james Bartholomew. He was running the elevator. He has been there for a number of years. He told us that he had received a letter from George Hull, who declared that little Georgie is, as usual, just doing nothing in particular. George also said that Paul Rudd is commander of the U. S. fleet in the Atlantic. From Eifel tower we took a walk down t-he Boulevard de la Madeleine. There we found Harold Carlson, now a man of the world, taking his afternoon stroll. He informed us that Ruth Knowles and Frances Harness were conducting a very successful taxi dance in one of the smartest districts in town. A little farther along We met Margaret Ketha who was just coming from rehearsal at the Paris follies. Doris Baldwin is the leading lady in the review. I hope that we see it before leaving. Shanghai, August l, 1948 Dear Diary: A lot of water has gone under the bridge since I entered my last bit of drivel. We arrived at Shanghai this morning and decided to go at once to the Y. W. C. A. where we found Muriel Strate busily at work. She informed. us that james Dietrich was working at the Y. M. C. A. as general secretary. After washing up, Muriel asked us if we would like to see one of our old friends, Evelyn Brown. Guess, dear Diary, what she was doing! Assisted by some of the old K. H. S. Bunch , she was teaching the Chinamen the Big Apple . And were they getting resultsl When we left the studio we went to a butcher shop where we found Virginia Krichel busily engaged cutting meat. She said she pursued the profession because she liked to be near animals. Hawaii, September 3, 1948 Dear Diary: We arrived in Hawaii this noon and it certainly was the thrill of a life- time. There were crowds and crowds of people to meet the boat and among them was William Peevler. We started conversing and soon dis- covered that two of our old friends, Arthur Wirtz, and Thomas Rooney are hermits in the Mauna Loa Mountains. Taking William's suggestion, we Went to Waikiki Beach. I was en- thralled by the sight of the Hawaiians riding the serf. I was taken quite by surprise when I recognized Margaret Luke as one of the coasters. A TWENTY-SEVEN THE 1938 COMMENT few miles farther down the beach, we met Dorothy Semones. She is now official instructor of the native Hawaiian hula. She told us the plight of the president of our class of '38, It seems that Jonny Wilson's wife com- plained he had not kissed her for a week. He went crazy trying to remember whom he had been kissing. Keokuk, October 7, 1948 Dear Diary: As much as I wanted that trip around the world, and as much as I en- joyed myself, I still was glad to get back home. Things certainly have been happening since I left. Ruth Trump and Willy were married last Week. It was publicly an- nounced that Doris Worster and Leona Wright have declared themselves old maids. October 8, 1948 Dear Diary: While walking up Main Street, I bumped into Margaret Sherwood. She is private secretary to one of her old flames. Not long ago she heard from Jean Conrad, who no longer has anything to talk about, because she is now back in Harrisburg. I decided to drop around to Joe Bailey's store. Much to my surprise I found Helen Cowley as clerk. Leroy Sale is the new floor walker, and James Allison is training for the Olympics by running from Joe's to the high school and back. Upon returning home I found a letter from Doris Stice. She married the ice man and is living in Canada with her husband and two icicles. And now, Dear Diary, farewell. M. S.

Frank Venning, the activity editor, finally succeeded in getting his copy together five minutes before the third deadline. Versatile hiartha Driver has had the task of keeping a record of all school events for the calendar.

Their only reward is derived from what pleasure they receive from helping others. At times, the ex- istence of any such reward is doubtful as practically every library period contains at least one of the various varieties of pests .There is always the discourteous, lazy individual who lacks suliicient ambition to Write out his slip so that it will be of any value to the librarian in locating the material he desires. The second type is the gossip who apparently has nothing to do except lean on the counter and make a nuisance of himself. The third is the person who recognizes some librarians as good students and seems to feel that they are placed there as private tutors. However, When the next call for librarians is made, most of the present stali indicate their willingness to try it again, so perhaps the students who appreciate the service and make themselves agreeable are in the majority after all. FORTY-SEVEN THE 1938 COMMENT Quill and Scroll The Quill and Scroll is an international honorary society for high school journalists.

Muriel Strate, a middle-aged Woman of strong maternal instinct, is afraid her eldest daughter, Doris Baldwin, a working girl, is never going to catch a husband, and is very anxious to see her married to any Well-to-do young man, much to the disgust of her father, Allan Criswell. Doris finally falls in love with a chap of moderate means, Ernest Shillak. When Ernest comes to call, lVIuriel, not knowing they are secretly en- gaged, tries to impress him by acting as if the family were very wealthy. The dressmaker, Ruth Bisping, thinking him rich, creates the illusion that Doris has many Wealthy suitors, and that she expects luxuries if she marries him. This makes him feel he is not good enough for her. However, they both find out the truth in time, and live scrappily ever after. Continual bits of humor are added throughout the play by the quarrels of Wilfred Cresswell and Betty Biddenstadt, Doris's younger brother and sisterg also by .lack Hartrick and Jack's mother Dorothy Clem, Who are neighbors.

At the beginning of the year, a Miajor is elected. This honor was be- stowed upon Dorothy Wustrow. The Major is responsible to an advisory committee which consisted this year of Virginia Krichel, Doris Howell, and Dorothy Vaughan. Preceding each program the girls faithfully came for many mornings at eight o'clock to rehearse. The Pep Squad has participated in many events of the school other than those of an athletic nature. It is a credit to our high school. SEVENTY-FOUR THE 1938 COMMENT Left to Right-5-Ruth Bisping, Dorothy Clem, Mildred Othmer. Cheer Leaders One of the most essential parts of an athletic program is the backing which the contestants received from the crowd. ln order to have an organized yelling unit, Dorothy Clem, Ruth Bisping, and Mildred Othmer, were elected by the student body, to act as yell leaders. Much of the success of these girls is due to the leadership and training given them by Mr. Hale. The rewards of their efforts were shown by the cooperation of the spectators as a whole.

Apparatus Apparatus was nearly dead this year hut a few boys got behind it and rounded up enough interest in it to have a team. 'Practice was not started until around Christmas but those who Went out were good enough that they produced a fine team. Those who participated this year did it either for their own good or for their enjoyment of that type of Work. There was no competition and no letters were awarded. About fifteen were out during the whole season. The team took part in three events during the year, namely: Junior Night, Gym Exhibit, and Stunt Night. The showing made at the Junior Night was all tumbling. The boys put on a full demonstration at the Gym Exhibit, including springboard diving, work on the horizontal bars, and the horse, as well as tumbling.

'lihis was his second year on the Conference team. Lester Salzer-End. By playing heads up ball all season, Les was chosen as end on both the All- Conference and IDPA All-State first teams. Clyde Bowman-lind. Clyde was the fastest man on the team this year and was usually the first down the field after kicks. Charles Coffin-Guard.

Though this was .lim's first playing year, he did good Work Whenever called on. Juniors who Won letters are Bernard lfarnum, Robert Foster, Bill Lamb, Milton Ross, John Hutchison and Virgil VVeldon, a sophomore. SEVENTY-EIGHT THE 1938 COMMENT Championship Review K. H. S. went through her second football season in Little Six Confer- ence competition in great style last fall. Our fellows went down the schedule losing but one game, tying one, and winning seven. One victory and the tie were not conference games. After defeating Fairheld 20 to 6 and Winning the championship, the team suffered a relapse at Burlington. The Greyhounds completed a pass in coflin corner to win 7 to 0. On Armistice Day the Chiefs tied the strong Centerville team 0 to 0 and thus ended the season. When you consider the fact that Coach Shultz started out with only four major letter winners, you appreciate the season still more. Keokuk Will lose eight major letter men this yearg but, despite this fact, there are fine prospects for next year's team. The letter men returning are Ross, Hutchison, Lamb, Foster, Farnum, and Weldon. These fellows are backed by several substitutes and sophomore team players. GAMES Keokuk 20-Carthage 6 September 18-Keokuk journeyed to Carthage for its opening game on a day resembling mid-summer Weather. ln the first quarter, Haase reeled off seventy-five yards for the first score. Later he scored again on a short plunge. ln the last quarter Bundy twisted 65 yards for the last K. H. S. score. Carthage scored on a series of pass plays. Coach Shultz used everybody but the managers in the game. Keokuk 6-Washington 0 September 24-The first half of the K. H. S.-Washington game was rather dull with both teams battling on even terms in midfield. ln the third quarter Foster blocked a kick and recovered. He then passed to Salzer who went over for the only score. Again both teams battled Wearily to no avail. Keokuk 6-lVIuscatine 0 October 1-ln the first quarter of the Hrst home game, a fancy running attack sponsored by Haase and Bundy took the ball to the Muskies 30 yard line. There the Chiefs changed tactics and Foster completed a long pass to Salzer in the end zone for the only score. Keokuk then dug in its cleats and held the Muscatine offensive thrusts to a standstill. Later the Chiefs threatened but lacked power to score. Keokuk 13-Mt. Pleasant 0 October 9-This game was played on a Warm Friday afternoon so the Chiefs had a large delegation of rooters from K. H. S. Though the Chiefs won, the game was played loosely throughout. When the running attack SEVENTY-NINE THE 1938 COMMENT bogged down Haase Hipped two passes to Bowman, each contributing a score. Clyde carried one over without stopping and Haase plunged through the line for the other. Keokuk 26--Ft. Madison 7 October 15-On this historic evening Madison came and fell. Our Chiefs burned tracks all over the place with long, powerful, and fancy gains. The game had no more than started till a blocked kick set the stage for the first score. Three more times the wild Chiefs crossed the Madison goal before the Bloodhounds could make their passes click for their only score. This made two straight victories over Madison on the gridiron. May it long continue. Keokuk 14-Ottumwa 6 October 22-Like in the Madison game, the Chiefs scored in the first minutes and converted. Several plays later Ottumwa scored on a sleeper pass play but failed to convert. Later Bundy caught a sailing kick back of his goal line and twisted his way 100 yards for another scorfe with Haase converting. The rest of the game was by no means dull for the Chiefs were putting on a high speed razzle-dazzle exhibition that kept all eyes popping. Keokuk 20-Fairfield 6 October 29-The game to decide the championship was full of passes, tricks and surprises. Haase plunged over in the first quarter but Fairfield put on a drive in the second and came within one point of the Chiefs. There the scoring halted until the last few minutes when Champ of Fair- field filled the air with passes. Bundy intercepted one, ran to a touchdown and was soon followed by Salzer who raised the Chiefs score to twenty points. The game ended in a few minutes with Keokuk the new champions of the Little Six. Keokuk 0-Burlington 7 November 5.-This game looked good during the first half but the Greyhounds, passes found their marks in the third quarter. A fumble gave Burlington the ball near midfield and Birkenstock completed a sur- prise pass to the 13 yard line. Another pass across the field was good for a touchdown. ln the last minute Haase got away to the Hve yard line but the whistle blew after one play. Thus the Chiefs lost their only game of the season. Nuff Said. Keokuk 0-Centerville 0 November 11-With much ballyhoo and high talk around town, the Chiefs took on the powerful Centerville Reds. Both teams fought dog- gedly all afternoon but neither had the steam to score. Though the Purple boys outgained the Reds, passes failed to click when needed badly and thus the Chiefs ran down the curtain on a season of swell football.

In six games played, five were won and one tied. Since this was the first year in football for several of the boys, Coach John Rogers showed his skill in producing such a team. In two of the games rather high scores were built up and if these boys can keep it up when they make the first squad, Keokuk will have more great teams. As this team is built up to give the future players a chance to really play regulation football, it is torn apart almost completely every yearg but despite this fact, they always play good ball. There are several this year who are slated to become stars next fall or the year after.

EIGHTY-THREE THE 1938 COMMENT Review of Basketball The Lhiefs enjoyed a fine season this year. After losing three games the hrst half, the Chiefs piled up a string of victories stopped only in the District Tournament. This second-half splurge carried Keokuk to a tie for second place in the final standing and then Won the sectional tourna- ment. The boys broke many records during the season but continued Keokuk's habit of losing the first District tournament games. They triumphed twice over Burlington, beat Ottumwa on the K. H. S. floor, lost on the Ottumwa Hoor and led Madison at the half of the second game by the largest score in history. At the end of the season a poll of the conference coaches put Hutchison at guard on the First All-Conference team. VVilson was put at forward, Salzer at center, and Foster at guard on the Second All-Conference squad.

Les sacrificed scoring this year for teamwork. His job was feeding the ball to other players in order to work the ball in close. This is his second and last basketball major and he is a difficult man to replace. John VVilson- Johnny -forward. A fast, tricky, and dangerous man was John. He was hot on long shots and setups were candy to him. This is Johnny's last year for K. H. S. Robert Foster- Bob''-forward. Bob was teamed off with Wilson at forward. Because of his height, he was good at getting and sinking bank- board shots. In conference play he was high point man for the team. Bob will be back next year. John Hutchison- Hutch -guard. Although John was playing guard, he also was a hot shot. H-is specialties were made from the free-throw line. He was high point man in several games due to those uncanny long ones. Hutch, too, will be playing for the Chiefs next year. Frederic Schneider-HChug -guard. Chug played' guard this year and stuck to it. He was always on his man and bearing down. Chug was the smallest player on the squad, but that hindered him in no way. Charles Collin-HChuck -guard. Chuck, as a senior alternated with Schneider this year for guard position. His mind was always on the game. Ralph Brust- Brustiel'-forward. Ralph had tough luck this Year. He had an operation at the first of the season and was out of the games until near the end. This is his last year of basketball. Robert Scott-f'Teeth -center. Teeth was substitute center this year under Salzer but is slated for starter next year. Jack Bawden- lack -guard. Jack did not start any games this year but got into nearly all of them. A man for the 'ffirst five next year. Charles Hehmeyer- Charlie''-forward. Charlie, too, was not a starter but got in a good share of playing. He will be back next year. Lester Leftwich- Les''-forward. Les, a junior, saw quite a bit of action in the games this year.

Atoms The Atom team started out as usual with all new players but it was not long until Mr. Wright and Bob Logan, who was coach later, had Whipped them into a promising team. This team, composed entirely of Sopho- mores, usually met the second teams of the towns opposing our Hrst team. Many of these teams had boys playing who Were older than the Atoms, but our boys held their own. The only game in which they were com- pletely outclassed was the fight with the classy Burnside team.

Calcium Carbide, or Carbide, as it is commonly known is made by subjecting Lime and Carbon, fcoke being' the most commonly used carbon elementb to the intense heat of the electric furnaceg about 5500 degrees Fahrenheit is required to melt and fuse them infto Carbide. The selection of the best raw materials, the preparation and handling of materials, control of electric energy and the care- ful supervision of every process in its manufacture has resulted in the production of High Quality Carbide. In addition to Old Uses, Science is continually finding New Uses, it now being used in the manufacturing of commercial chemicals necessary in the production of rayon, solvents, and acids.
