The basketball team is also supported by the band, since all home games are pepped up by the music of the K.H.S. pep band. The Rhythmaires, the school band, play at school proms and dances in the Tri-State area. The personnel of the band realize no profit from this, as all money earned goes into the band uniform fund.

This is the first year that a Keokuk football team has gone undefeated, and the first year since 1937 that K.H.S. has won the Little Six championship. The lone blemish on the 7-0-1 record was a scoreless tie with Ft. Madison. Hanley, Boyd, McQuiston, Me- cum, and Helenthal were selected for the all-conference first team, and Lockett, McManus, Ayer, I-lasper, Alberts, Prince, Williams, and Huiskamp were awarded honorable mention. McQuiston was named to both the I.D.P.A. and Des Moines Register first all-state teams. Helenthal was picked on the I.D.P.A. third team and the Register secondteam. 27 Quincy 7 44 Ottumwa 34 13 Mt.

The 1957 football Little Chiefs cou1dn't seem to get going this year, and they were unable to come out on the long end of the score. How- ever, the team played without the service of five of their best players, who were promoted to the varsity squad. Several of the boys looked good, and should make definite contributions to next year's varsity. VARSITY BASKETB LL FIRST ROW: E. McQuiston, G. Huiskarnp, R. Laubersheimer, L. Swift, J. Lockett, B.

The Chiefs fought through a hard season to a 20-4 record. They were nosed out of first place by Muscatine, 50-49, in the deciding game. After winning the Sectional and District tournaments, the boys lost to Davenport, 49-44, in the State. Laubersheimer was selected for the first All-Conference team, and Summers and Hanley were picked for the second squad. Laubersheimer was also selected for the I.D.P.A. Frist and the Des Moines Register third All-State teams. Lockett, Summers, and Hanley received Honorable Mention.

The team finished with a 15-1 record: the lone defeat coming at the hands of Ottumwa mid-way in the season.

There are several very promising sophomores on the squad, and the returning veterans are going to have to work to stay on the team. This hard . inter-squad competition should produce a strong team to defend the con- ference crown. GULF lst ROW: C. McManus, B. Byers. Znd ROW: H. Prince, N. Svendsen, P. Dickey, D. Shupe, J.

There are several letter winners back, and some of the boys who didn't play as much last spring improved greatly during the summer. There are also several sophomores who will be pushing hard for a spot on the team. With good inter-squad competition, it should be a successful season. BASEBALL lst ROW: J. Huiskarnp, G.

There are eight returning regulars on whom Coach Shupe expects to base the squad. Last year's team finished in third place in the Little Six. With the help of several other veterans and some promising sophomores the team should develop into a real conference contender. TRACK ' K - wifziklf . . - :si . Q se 0 J x - gl l 3 FRONT ROW: B.

The halls and library were still except for the hurried steps of the custodians who were busy scrubbing, painting, waxing and getting all in readiness for the fall semester.

The Freshman was now over the threshold and into the maze of classes and activities. After a coke break Qcompliments of the Sophornoresl the Freshmen began final registration. There were tentative schedules to fill out, permanent schedules, class cards, and other forms. There were always the questions, Which section of chemistry shall I go in- to? Do I have to take an 8 o'clock class? Iwonder if I can get into drama if I switch from biological science to physical science? A chat with the advisors helped to clear up conflicts. Some- times they cou1dn't answer the questions! Tuition is paid - and the Freshman is a student at K.C.C. One of the first parties of the year was the Student Board sponsored Halloween Masquer- ade. Streamers, jack-o'-lanterns replaced the cafeteria tables and chairs.

Queen Marilyn Reigns ! When Marilyn Bradley heard that she had been elected queen, she exclaimed, I am so surprised and very, very happy- During intermission of the an- nual homecoming dance, Queen Marilyn received her crown from student board president, Ken Galle. Marilyn, who hails from Argyle, is a member of Student I.S.E.A. She is also a member of the Young Adults Club. Marilyn keeps very busy with her work at K.C.C. Although at the present she is a telephone operator she wants to be a kindergarten teacher. Whenever she isn't work- ing, she is a loyal supporter of the college activities. QUEE MARILY BRADLEY STLIDE T BGARD DIRECTS COLLEGE ACTIVITIE The Student Board is composed of four officers and four members-at-large. Each officer and member is elected to his post through a college wide campaign and election. The president assumes office in the spring of the year. The other members take office in the fall. It is the duty of the Board to promote and regulate student activities and to be a responsible governing body for the students of the College under the powers granted by the administration. This year the student Board completed a busy year of well planned ac- tivities. The office of president was ably con- ducted by Ken Galleg The. success of the Student Board activities is an in- dication of the conscient- iousness with which he exercised the duties of his office. Dean McKinstry acted in an advisory capac- ity, but the President and Board assumed the re- sponsibilities involved in planning social activities and making decisions which affected the Student Body. A in l Standing: Jim Bauswell, Ken Galle, Jerry Krebill, Jackie Glasgow, Don Riley, Don Romes. Seated: Dean McKinstry, Rosemary Meierotto, Janet Kelly. Assisting President Galle this year was Jerry Krebill as vice-president, Janet Kelly as secretary, Jackie Glasgow - treasurer. The members-at-large were Rosemary Meierotto, Jim Bauswell, Don Riley and Don Romes. In keeping with the duties and powers of the Board as stated in the constitution of the Student Government Association, the Student Board granted permission for the formation of the Masquers, a dramatics group. Informality was the keynote of college social activities planned and sponsored by the Board. In September the Fall Frolic was held at Peters' Grove. This offered an opportunity for the incoming student to become better acquainted with his class- mates as well as the continuing students. In October a halloween masquerade was held in the cafeteria. The semi-formal Christmas dance was held on December 28. The theme this year was Club Holiday. This dance is the oldest traditional af- fair of the college, and as usual, it was well attended. It was an opportunity for friends and classmates who have moved away to visit with K.C.C. students and faculty members. After a successful homecoming on January 31 during which Queen Marilyn Bradley reigned, the Board turned its attention to planning the an- nual All-College Picnic at Carthage Lake and the Sophomore Banquet. This brought to a close another year of activity for the Student Board. rn' Front Row Left to right Mr Duane Blesz dlI'LLtOl J Glasgow, B. Peterson, M. Holland, S.

Thirteen staff members combine their ef- forts to produce THE COMET'S TALE every two weeks. The paper began its second year of publication with a brave, new masthead and new make-up. The paper tries to fill the needs of its reading public, the student body of KCC. The Tale was instrumental in sparking the move to redecorate the student loungeg it has also made a concerted effort to urge students to attend college sports and social activities. On October 12, Editor LaVerne West and Business Manager Carole Vermillion attended the first meeting of the Iowa College Newspaper Conference in Iowa City. THE COMET'S TALE entered the roll of this newly formed organiza- tion as a charter member. Left: Danny Staggs gives Don Hewitt a helping hand. Below: The Wheels confer.

SCARLET The goal of the staff of this 1958 edition of the SCARLET was to produce a book that tells the story of this year at Community College. This year saw more progress in pro- ducing an individual yearbook for the college. After several weeks of debating over a name, the staff selected SCARLET, discarding contenders for the title such as Puc-e-she-tuc, Kee-shuth, and Mus-kemo-ta. The constant pressure of deadlines, re- visions, and interruptions taxed the staff. Finally in March the last pages left the tired and loving hands of the staff and were de- livered to the printer in Hannibal. For the staff this climaxed several months of cuttin arranging and pasting pictures and captions. Top right: Carole Vermillion checks the dictionary to keep Ken Galle on the right track.

On September 7, with the aid of an industrious group of twenty-one, the dramatics department of Community College was formed. Larry Conner was elected presi- dent and Carol Russell was elected to the post of secretary-treasurer for the first year. The first play which the Masquers did was The Pampered Darling. This play was taken on tour to various high schools in the tri-state area. Late in the spring Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit was presented at the college for public admission. Throughout the year the Masquers engaged in several activities. One of the most memorable was the trip during Christmas vacation to Chicago to see a touring Broadway production.

This year forty-one Iowa colleges par- ticipated in this project on Wednesday, November l3. The day was inaugurated to assist students and the public to become aware of the contributions that teachers in their schools make to the welfare of so- ciety, and to offer high school students an opportunity to discover what needs to be done to be a professional teacher. Community College entertained the future teachers of several of the surrounding high schools in the tri- state area. Each member of the college group acted as host or hostess to the guests. The day started with registration and refreshments. In the afternoon four faculty members from Keokuk school system answered questions put to them by four students who represented the total student group. is P' All Above: Blessed is he who invented the paint roller.

The biggest athletic honor to be be- stowed on K.C.C. was made a reality on Saturday, February 15, in Webster City when the Komets de- feated Grand View College of Des Moines 59-60. After the game Lou and manager, Gary Briscoe, were carried to the dressing room and given their victory shower.

What does it take to have a state championship basketball team? Poise, hard practice, fighting spirit, confidence in each other and the will to win is the answer. Lou Schmadeke's Komets accomplished the biggest feat in K.C.C.'s history, winning the state crown. The Komets also finished in a first place tie with Muscatine and Moline in the Mississippi Valley Conference. Selected for the all-conference first team were Don Romes, Ken Galle and Gene Weber. Jerry Krebill, Danny Staggs and Marvin Doyle were placed on the second team. The Komet cagers ended the season with a 12-1 record in Iowa competition. Don Romes and Gene Weber were placed on the first all-state team. Ken Galle was selected on the second team. This was the greatest year in the basketball ranks for K.C.C., and we hope that it was just the beginning. STATE TOURNAMENT Keo.

A Sargon David Mr. Sargon David spoke to K.C.C. students at an all college assembly on November 12. Mr. David's lecture covered the troubled areas of the Middle East. He is a native of Iraq, and his first hand knowledge of his material made his topic both authoritative and very interesting. Later that morning he answered questions put to him by the World Affairs class. Mr. David is in the United States on a student' visa. He attended Lincoln Junior College, Lin- coln, Illinois. At the present he is attending Culver-Stockton College in Canton, Missouri. . on M Rowland Myer s At an all college assembly on December 10, the K.C.C. student body heard Dr. Rowland M. Myers speak on The Romance of Words. That morning Dr. Myers presented a series of or- dinary words and showed how they reflected the pa st history of man on this planet, his activities, his thoughts, his moments of confusion, his hopes and his fears. He told stories about the origins of words and revealed how they have been formed in the past and are actually being formed today. According to Dr. Myers, words are like coinsg the more they are used, the faster they wear down and change their form and meaning. He predicted that some day everyone in the world will speak the same tongue, using a universal language which will evolve from existing lan- guages. ,ms .n LM S i + Z v Q 1 CHHDIDHTES EUR DEGREE UE HSSUCIHEE IH HHTS x E 1 E EE 2 ei? 2 if :Fifi RICHARD BANGERT Montrose Pre-Engineering SHIRLEY BENTZINGER Donnellson Liberal Arts DONALD BOE Ft.
