S. gymna- sium, And when the one great scorer comes to write against your name, he writes not that you Won or lost, but how you played the game. Of course, the advice doesn't refer to sports aloneg it is a principle which can be well applied to every activity in school and in life. The ideals of fair play, honor and honesty are not out of place anywhere. rs 'm'mrite against your name -gi bum Qnu plaqed the game Many members of the graduating class take this quotation with them as a part of their edu- cation at K. H. S., and many members of other classes, present, and to come, learn to apply this classic advice to their lives before they leave Keokuk Senior High School. So, to this wonderful ideal the Comment of nineteen hundred fifty- three is respectfully dedicated. INDEX Comment Staff ........... ,..,.,,.,,,,,,,,,. Dedication ...................

The queen and her attendants reigned during the 2nd half of the game, following the colorful Coronation ceremony. A pep rally to end all rallies was held in the practice field the night before the big game. The team was escorted to the field by the Fire Dept. and a bevy of decorated cars. The Torch Club made an innovation at this year's rally with a float contest, won by the Cheer- leaders. The evening was climaxed with a snake dance to the school, and an in- formal Get-to-Gether' in the Wig- Wam. ,f ,A , E i in 1 l 4 9:1-h - kr 5: -. faw?'p 11'-'93 '. -he -:iw I af'-'V K- ,Z-lx? Q.

KEOKUK vs. FAIRFIELD The Chiefs battled the mighty line of the Trojans to the last minute, but came out on the losing end by a score of 19-0. KEOKUK vs. MUSCATINE The Chiefs suffered their third loss of the season by losing to the Muskies 13-6. KEOKUK vs. BURLINGTON The K. H. S. lads played a very good defensive game against Bur- lington, holding the Greyhound powerhouse to a lone 7 points, but again coming out on the short end of the deal themselves. KEOKUK vs. OTTUMWA The Chiefs won their first game of the season by upsetting the Ottumwa Bulldogs 12-0. It was the Chiefs' ball game in the second half after battling to a 0-0 first half tie. KEOKUK vs. ABINGDON, ILL. For the first time in twelve years Keokuk scored in the 30's by trouncing Abingdon, Ill.33-14. It was a well played game throughout with the determination of the K. H. S. lads winning out. KEOKUK vs. MT. PLEASANT Keokuk showed their outstanding offensive attack of the season against Mt. Pleasant by running up 36 points to the Panthers 13. KEOKUK vs. WASHINGTON The Washington Demons, celebrating Dad's night, ploughed past the Keokuk lads 12-6. KEOKUK vs. FT. MADISON The Chiefs climaxed a successful 1952 football season with a 19-13 triumph over a fired up Bloodhound squad, giving the chiefs four wins and five losses. And so the K. H. S. Chiefs finished the most successful season of recent years. The students tip their hats to the fine work of the coaching staff. The Chiefs also produced two outstanding players. Larry Wiedmeyer first team All-Conference guard and Bill Vorhies second team All-Conference guard. Both of these boys are seniors and will be missed tremendously next year. Let's keep up the good work, Chiefs! About the Sophomores It looks as though the good work will be kept up. The sophomores, too, chalked up a success- ful season, suffering only one loss, while recording seven wins. We are looking forward to next year when these boys will be making a fine showing on the Varsity Squad. 44 K. Il. S.

The Keokuk Chiefs started the '52-'53 season with a bang by winning 8 games before losing to Ot tumwa, Jan. 2 on the Bulldog court, 57-36. But they bounced back and took the Burlington Greyhounds in a hard fought and well played game Jan. 9, 52-49, to lead the conference by one game. They met with bad luck by losing to Mt. Pleasant, breaking the winning streak on the home court at 31 games. With the Chiefs ridingalone in second, the league-leading Ottumwa Bulldogs invaded K. H. S. gym only to go down in defeat 49-45 to a fired-up Chief crew who were seeking revenge from the 21-point loss on the Bulldog court. The win put the Chiefs in a first place tie with the Bulldogs. On Friday, February 13, the return game with Burlington saw the Chiefs go down in defeat 58-57, despite a last minute rally. The loss put the Chiefs in a tie for second place in the conference with Burlington and Muscatine. The Chiefs lost to the Quincy Bluedevils 75-64, in one of their best played games of the year but came back to take the Carthage quintet, 62-52. And, so ends a very successful season. 95 UPHO UIIES 953 C55 X First row: L. Griffith, B. Pearl, F. Glasgow, W. McLain, E. Bryant, B. Van Dever, J. Copeland. Second row: J. Walter, Mgr., L. Graf, R.

It is good to learn about the plants and animals about usg and it is important to know about our own bodies. All of these are taught in biology. Mx Here Mr. Sponheimer is addressing his 5th hour solid geometry class. Other hours you might look for him in the biology lab or teaching ad- vanced algebra or refresher math- and if, you still can't locate him, it's because he's.busy adjusting a movie screen or projector. I-S 1 What's that Miss Banks is reading'? The two students in the front are paying attention, whether she is read- ing a good story or giving an assign- mentg in fact the whole class is listen- ing. Since the English language is very important, they should be mak- ing the most of the course. Skillful Arts These girls are promising secretar- ies. Under the skilled direction of Miss Connor it is a pleasure to be taking shorthand or typingg and of course, you learn something, which is the main thing. Looks as if it's just about done. Yes that is probably what Mrs. Ferris is saying here, as she and some of her students look into the oven. It really makes the other students hun- gry when they catch the aroma from that wonderful food. I pin. It It is too bad that we can't see the names of the students who drew those beautiful pictures on the wall! The pictures wouldn't have been quite so professional had it not been for Mr. Waynes' instructions.

Miss Meredith is the one who sees that all of the library books are kept in order so that students can find references easily and quickly. For the students who don't know how to make use of the library too well, she is always ready, willing and able to help. 02s ,Il Wheels G0 Round In the three years Mr. Jones has taught driver education in Keokuk he has become familiar with every bump and rut on Main Street and on the road to Montrose.

Williams W -I ll if .CHffr.s' Photo by Stan Lipczynski, Daily Gate City In March of 1952 the Keokuk Chiefs concluded one of the most successful basketball sea- sons in the history of the school, compiling an amazing 23 and 3 record. The start was a bit slow as we bowed to Davenport by a score of 63 to 405 but after that we proceeded to mow down all opponents until we lost a heartbreaker to Ottumwa on her floor in an overtime, 41 to 39. We then ran the string out to finish first in the conference with a thirteen to one record. As the Chiefs moved into tournament play, we faced our old rival, Ft. Madison, on her floor. It was a hard-fought battle, but we emerged the winner by a score of 58 to 48. The Chiefs moved into Sub-State play against some tough opponents. We faced Fairfield in the opening tilt and came out on top after a tough battle, 58 to 54. Ottumwa was our opponent for the final round of the Sub-State. The Chiefs and the Bull- dogs had split during the season and this was the crucial game. The Chiefs jumped out on top and were never headed as they hatched a final victory in the Sub-State, 36-31. State play opened on March 17th as the Chiefs moved to Iowa City for their third straight crack at the State crown. Hull, the opening round opponent of the Chiefs, fell with a loud crash, 66 to 26. In the second round the Chiefs moved against Hugh Leffingwell and his mates from Marion. They proved to be not too difficult to shackle as Bob Williams and Bill Logan led in scoring and rebounding, the final score read 55 to 39. In the third round the Chiefs came face to face with Roland, the previous year's runner-up. They were led by Gary Thompson, a good floor man and a steady shooter. They were no match for the Chiefs and received the short end of a 55 to 43 score. In the final battle the Chiefs faced the Davenport Blue Devils, the State champions for two years straight. The game was hard fought, and the Chiefs outplayed and led the Blue Devils for three quarters. In the final quarter the Chiefs lost the service of Bill Logan on fouls and Davenport won a hollow victory by edging the Chiefs 48 to 45. There was no doubt in anyonels mind about the superiority of the Chiefs, and had they not had that bit of bad luck, they would have come home the actual champions of the State of Iowa. To all of us, however, the Chiefs are the true champions. , ff' Anna if 6649 . . 1- Wllllzxms uvvos opponent GOOI, W Q Rfllljfh going for Koch Gammon cludes I,vft'i11gwvll for two Q40 Phntos by Stun Lipczynski, Daily Gatc City iof 3009 lf c rs r - .- we Q '53 I 9 is L TRACK TEAM lst Row: Mr. Lockett, Clitton Lowery, Phil Weiny, Bob Williams, Bob Lear, Roger Bickel, John South, Paul Schaaf, Ted Foster, Bill Doss, Dick Wells, Gerald Hoeferle, Ted Brown, Mgr., Mr. Peters.

When Bill Logan and Joe Marlin were eliminated by the Iowa City opponents they brought to a close Keokukis best year in tennis. Martin and Logan were the first Keokuk entrants in a state meet. 11 :Asia ' , JW. .'1: ,, Sn 3' 1-N...

SENIORS FROLIC WITH J UNIORS BUT PICNIC ALONE By a vote of the students the l95l Iunior- Senior Prom was open to anyone who was of senior high school age or older and had an in- vitation from a member of the junior or senior class. This was the first time in the history of the school this has been done and the idea met with great success. The theme of the prom was An Evening in Paris . By planning weeks ahead and work- ing long hours into the night the juniors gave a prom that will be long remembered by all who attended. During the course of the evening the lights were lowered and the Eiffel Tower, drawn to scale and extending the entire height of the gym, glowed at one end of the dance floor. Refreshments were served in the Home Ec. lounge which had been transformed into a French cafe. At different intervals Shirley Keim and Edwin Rogers, accompanied by Mr. Wil- helm, sang French songs. 56 ,ff X W ,I I 495552 J ag , wiv , J E l p' . .1 Yi ll The senior class picnic was held at Lakeview from nine ' 1 Htl o'clock A.M. to five o'clock P.M. on Thursday, May 31.
