Kingsville High School - K Lite Yearbook (Kingsville, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1956 volume:

K-LITE PuLLU THE SENIOR CLASS of 195 6 Kingsville High School Volume VIII 2 We, the graduating class of nineteen hundred and fifty-six, dedicate this eighth issue of the K-Lite to our beloved coach, Mr. Edward Batanian. Mr. Batanian was bom in Cambridge, Ohio, on April 14, 1927 . He spent his grade and high school years at Byesville High School. He attended the Youngstown University in Youngstown where he got his Bachelor of Science degree. He started teaching at Kingsville High in September of 1951. He teaches Physical Education and History. Since Mr. Batanian has been coach here, we have been champs of the Big Seven League twice, in 1952-53, and 1953-54. We were runners-up in 1952-53 and got to the sectional finals in 1953-54. 3 From Room One To the members of the Class of 1956 of Kingsville High School: May we extend to you our Best Wishes for a satisfactory and success- ful life in the great future that lies ahead of you. Sincerely, Lynn Sprague From the Editors This yearbook is the result of the combined efforts of all the members of the senior class of 1956. We have all had a part in gathering the ma- terial or in the setting up of the book itself. This year we are putting out a new and different yearbook. We hope the readers will get as much pleasure from reading the K-Lite as we got from putting it out. We, the editors, would like to thank each member of the senior class and everyone else who helped in any way to make this annual a success. Most of all, we would like to thank Miss Sowry, for we know that without her help and guidance this annual would never have been possible.

Henry started to school with many of us in the first grade. In the fall of 1951, at the beginning of the eighth grade, Henry was killed while riding his bicycle. We have missed Henry very much from the activities of our years in high school. He was a good student and a wonderful friend to each one of us. We will never forget him in the years to come. as ' so ' k: £ _ to FRANK BOBEY Frank who grew To be 6 4 tall. Had a way with people That beat us all.

As we open the book we find that quite a number of the class started school here. They are: Marian Hoover Patsy Dewey, Carol Reed, Duane Cleveland, Shirley Pickens, Glenna Bancroft, lean Williams, Richard Mandrake, Leroy Campbell, Frank Bobey and James Burch. Carol Marrison joined the class about the half of the first grade. We had a toy band in the first grade which we thought was a lot of fun. Mrs. ferry was our first grade teacher. In the second grade we had one newcomer. Bill Brooker. This year we put on an Indian Program. Our teacher was Mrs. Kaull. In the third grade we didn't have any new students. This year we learned many different things in arithmetic and other subjects. Mrs. Keller was our teacher this year. In the fourth grade Joan Davis, Barbara Lovejoy, and Burton Bartram joined our class. Our teach- er this year was Mrs. Keller. Harold Weaver came to join the class in the fifth grade. Miss Vaunderburg was our teacher. In the sixth grade we had just one newcomer. He was Frank Fisher. Mrs. Day was our teacher. Finally, the day came when we could be with the high school. We had a little trouble while changing classes and getting into the right seats. But finally we had it all straightened out We didn't have any new pupils this year. We had a Junior High Basketball Team with which some of our boys played. Soon another year had passed, and we were now in the eighth grade. We had one new student, Mary Reger. This year we had a Junior High Basketball Team, also. During this year we lost one of our beloved schoolmates, Henry Fox, who was killed. We have missed him in the last four years of school. Then came the ninth grade. We think this is one year we will never forget. We were initiated by the Sophomore Class. We had a lot of fun even though we did smell of onion and garlic juice for sometime afterwards. We had two newcomers this year, Nancy McMillen and Claudette Slater. Our candidate tor Basketball Queen was Claudette Slater. Then came the tenth grade. This year we did the initiating to the Freshmen. We had a lot of fun giving them what we had received the year before. We had three newcomers to the class who were, Dorisse Ingramm, Janet Hinkle, and Victor Tiscenko. Our candidate for Basketball Queen this year was Janet Hinkle. Then came the most busy year. The eleventh grade. This year we worked very hard so that we could earn money for the Junior-Senior Prom which was held at the Lutz Restaurant in Painesville on April 30. We had the refreshment stand at the Basketball Games. We also sponsored quite a few dances. The Junior Play The Carpenter, under the direction of Mrs. Konnert, was a great suc- cess. We had one new classmate this year, Ronald Carter. Our candidate for queen was Jean Williams, who made a very pretty Basketball Queen for '55. Our Senior year has not been as busy. We have sponsored a few dances. Our biggest jobs are putting out the Centra-Light and K-Lite. We have had good success in both of these. Our Senior play Professor, How Could You! directed by Mrs. Weaver was a great success, also. Our can- didate for Queen this year was Glenna Bancroft. Glenna is our new Basketball Queen for '56. As we close the pages of our memories of twelve years in K. H. S. we think of the wonderful times we have had. Of course, we have had some bad along with the good, but we will never for- get our school days and the wonderful schoolmates we have shared these things with. As we leave the doors of K. H. S. there will be these memories which will never be forgotten. 15 Will We, the graduating class of 1956, of the city of Kingsville, county of Ashtabula, and the state of Ohio, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any will or wills heretofore made by us. I, Glenna Bancroft, will my ability to eat and keep slim to my cousin, Sandra Bancroft. I hope your dresses will always be sizes seven or nine. I, Burton Bartram, will all my troubles in managing and keeping track of the Centra-Light, to Jimmie Risley. I sincerely hope you still have hair when you graduate. I, Frank Bobey, will my tallness to Jim Edixon. This is some trouble, though, as you will need to go with a girl who has steps on the front porch. I, Bill Brooker, will my tardy permits in history class to anyone who likes to sleep late. I also have an assorted dozen unused excuses for absences. I, Jim Burch, will my ability to run to school every morning to Bill Konnert. This makes a wonderful excuse for being tardy. I, Leroy Campbell, will my sweet way with the girls to Richard Branch. If you get in touch with me soon, I will also include six lessons, by correspondence, in How To Tell A Girl She Is Lovely. I, Ronnie Carter, will my ability to be as quiet as a mouse in classes, to Gary Bancroft. All you need, Gary, is will power - with a strong teacher. I, Duane Cleveland, will my bashful ways to Willie Hochschild. I realize that the time will come when you must be able to speak without blushing, so I am also including a twenty-five cent can of tal- cum powder. I, Joan Davis, will by baton twirling ability to Lucille Hinkle. You will need to practice twirling every day, eat only two meals a day, and refrain from indulging in sodas, sundaes, and milkshakes. I, Patsy Dewey, will my ability to eat lots of mashed potatoes to Jean Davis. I'll tell you my sec- ret -_I have a cavity in one of my teeth. I, Frank Fisher, will my basketball position to Larry Nicka. This is guaranteed to make you irresist- able with the girls. Of course, a crooked smile helps. Practice this in front of a mirror three times a day. I, Janet Hinkle, will my cheerleading ability to Barbara Cedar. I recommend that you listen to Paige Palmer. I, Marian Hoover, will my librarian days back to Mrs. Konnert. I enjoyed my job. I, Dorise Ingram, will my Friday night dates to any girl who doesn't have a date. Please remember I am willing my dates, but not my boy friend. I, Barbara Lovejoy, will my photographic job to Alice dayman. Watch the spots before the camera! I, Richard Mandrake, will my quiet nature to Sue Mansfield. My rule: Quietness and seriousness. I, Carol Marrison, will my cymbal playing to some big Junior boy who can hit them real hard. I would suggest someone who has taken a Charles Atlas course in muscle building. I, Nancy McMillen, will by naturally curly hair to Johnette Eakin. Don't get too discouraged about training it, though, as it may take you years. I, Shirley Pickens, will my ability to go steady for four years to Eleancre Faulkerson. The happiness it will bring you will more than make up for any dates you might miss. I, Carol Reed, will my tallness to Barbara Cedar. May you reach the highest rung on the ladder of success and may you hang on for dear life. •I, Mary Reger, will my letter writing ability to Carol Carle. I hope it will be as pleasant for you as it has for me. I will also throw in my favorite recipes for cookies and fudge. These make light cookies and the postage isn't too much. I, Victor Tiscenko, will my good looks and charming personality to John Meyer. May they bring you the prettiest girl in school as they have me. I, Harold Weaver, will my Chevi to anyone who likes to walk to school. This is a wonderful item for those who must lose weight. I, Jean Williams, will my giggles to June Bartram. I sincerely hope yours will not break up any more classes than mine have. I would not like to have my record broken. In Witness Whereof, We, The Senior Class, the testators, have set our hand and seal hereto this twenty-second day of May in the year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and fifty-six. (1956) 16 Witnesses: Class of 1956 Senior Class Prophecy Let us turn the hands of time ahead twenty years to the year 1976. What was once the small town of Kingsville Is now a growing metropolis with a population of 500,000. I thought that as long as I was in this fair city on the banks of the beautiful Conneaut River, I would look up some of my old buddies from my high school days in old K. H. S. It has been twenty years since I visited the old school building. And my goodness, what a change has taken place there! They tell me that the school is now an entirely new building. They are now using the old building for a garage for the buses. How sad, how sad! As I entered the plush office I was greeted by a bent and withered little man. I could tell by the motorcycle boots that it was Richard Mandrake. They must be a carry-over from his high school days. It seems that the kids in old K. H. S. are even worse than when I was in school. They have been giving poor Richard a very difficult time. This has caused him to have a very dejected outlook on life. But I always had a feeling that Dick would become principal as he used to spend quite a lot of time in the office. As I bade Richard good-bye I told him to cheer up and that better days were coming. He told me that if I would go down to the first grade class room I would find another member of the Class of '56. As I got in the elevator to go down to the first grade room I spotted a bright spot of color in the hall. So I stepped out and wandered down the hall and who do you suppose I met. Yes, it was Carol Marrison washing the walls. Her hair was what had taken my eye. It was still that brilliant color of red and she was wearing it in the latest style. Crew cut on top and a long pig-tail down the back. Carol seemed to be doing a pretty good Job of washing the walls. Of course, she had a lot of practice in her high school days. Remember when she used to do all that housework for her neighbors. I said good- bye to Carol and got back on the elevator and went down to the first grade room. As I entered the classroom of the first grade I spied a sweet little gray-haired lady inthe middle of the room. It was none other than Shirley Pickens. Yes, Shirley had taken a two-year course at Kent State University and was now teaching the first grade. Shirley told me that she had never married and was now living a very quiet life with her cats and her para- keet. This didn't surprise me too much as I remembered how quiet Shirley was and she never did go much for the boys. The children all seemed to love and respect her very much and she seemed to enjoy every moment of her chosen career. I decided to leave the school, at least for a while, and see who else I could find from the class. As I walked up to the newspaper office who should I see but Mary Reger. Mary was all dressed up in her black and white striped Bermuda shorts and a very becoming pink sweat shirt. She is now the owner and editor of the largest newspaper in Kingsville. It is published once a day and called the Kingsville Eavesdropper. Mary also says that she publishes comic books en- titled The Six Silly Seniors as a sideline. I imagine Mary makes a very good editor. At least she used to do a good Job with the Centra-Lite and K-Lite back in high school. I must remember to pick up one of her papers and see Just what kind of a job she is doing. As I walked on down the street I came to the largest building in Kingsville. It is approximately ten feet taller than the Empire State Building. As I entered the building through its beautiful swinging doors guess who I spied. Leroy Campbell! Leroy tells me that he is the President of The Corn Huskers and Cow Milkers Association now and he actually owns the building that we were in. Leroy says that he never has much time to get out on the farm any more because he has to spend so much of his time in his office. He was Just getting ready to go trade in his 1976 Cadillac for a 1977 model. It looks like Leroy has done all right for himself, doesn't it? I left Leroy to his business deals and went on down the street to the Court House. As I went in I was told to be very quiet as the Judge was Just taking her chair. You will never guess who the Judge was. None other than Patsy Dewey. Yes, Patsy was sitting up there pounding her gavel for attention. The room quieted down instantly and Judge Dewey proceeded without any further delay. I imagine that Patsy makes a very good Judge. She seeded to take right to the job in Business Law Class back in school. They tell me that she rules her court room with an iron gavel and shews no mercy for her poor victims. The case that was being tried that day was a murder. It seems that Ronny Carter was mixed up in it. Poor Ronny! It seems we had some trouble with him like that once before back in school. Ron Just can't seem to keep his hands off a hack- saw . The worst part of it was that he murdered his best egg-layer, Henrietta. It seems Ronny's wife kept nagging at him to kill Henrietta for their Sunday dinner. Finally Ronny could stand it no longer so pow, off with her head. The lawyer said that Ronny used a very nasty weapon and that was why he was being punished. Ronny got otf with a pretty fair sentence. He only got three months exile on the moon. I wished Ronny good luck and proceeded on my classmate hunt. As I was leaving the Court House I bumped into another girl from the Class of '56. It was Joan Davis. Joan was Just re- turning from her lunch hour. She told me that she is now the court stenographer and can take shorthand at 350 words a min- ute. Consequently, she holds the World's Record for shorthand speed. Good work, Joan, but you always were good in Shorthand back in school. Joan is also married and has twelve children. She says they are Cheaper by the Dozen and Joan always was economical. I said so long to Joan and continued on my way. Well, I left the Court House and decided to try the local theater. As I entered I heard a piano playing. It was none other than Barbara Lovejoy practicing a duet with Liberace, Junior. Barbara tells me that she now has her own television show. Her theme song is Sixteen Tons. This isn't at all surprising as I'm sure you can remember when Barbara used to play this song in Chorus. Barbara has never married either but, of course, she was another one of those quiet types. She also seems to be following in her father's footsteps quite successfully. I moved on down the stage and as I stopped to watch the Can-Can girls I thought their instructor looked familiar. It was Frank Fisher. Yes, Frank was right out there showing the girls Just how to Can-Can. I always knew Frank would go places with the girls. He always had a half-dozen on the string back in school. Frank tells me he is now driving a 1976 Jaguar. SU11 like those foreign Jobs, hey Frank. I said good-bye to Frank and left the theater. As I walked on down the street someone came up and slapped me on the bac with a Plow hard enough to knock a person out. I knew at once that it must be Harold Weaver and I was right. He always had a knack for giving those gentle little love-taps of his. When I asked Harold what he was doing with himself these days he said he was ru.ining a Chevrolet ga- rage. Harold said that he had so much luck with his Chevy back in school that he wanted everyone else to be able to en- joy the same privileges. 17 I left Harold to go on down to the veterinary's office. When I went in I noticed quite a few French poodles sitting around. In the midst of them was Janet Hinkle with her curling iron. She was busy getting them all curled up for a dog shew. She told me that she also waves black Aberdeen cattle for cattle shows. Janet always wanted to be a beautician and she seems to have gotten her wish. Janet seems to be doing all right but the only thing that seems to bother her is curling pigs tails. I told Janet to keep up the good work and went on. I walked on down the street and I ran into Glenna Bancroft. She was Just as slim and trim as she was in her school days. I asked Glenna if it was true that she was secretary to the Mayor. She said yes, that she had been for quite a few years now. Remember how Glenna always liked that job. At Girls' State in Columbus she held that job, also. I asked her what she did for a pastime and she told me she had taken over her father's butchering business. Glenna says she kills hundred of cows and pigs a week. I imagine that she and her third husband keep pretty busy at it. I said good-bye to Glenna and continued on my way. The next thing I came to was a factory. The name Cleveland on the sign out front took my eye, and I had an idea that it just might be Duane. So I went in and sure enough I was right. Duane told me he now manufactures cedar chests and coffins. He has built up a mighty good business. He used to make cedar chests in school if I remember correctly. Duane says, One is about as easy to make as the other. He also says that his favorite hobby is wrestling and he now has his own gym. Last week he wrestled Hans Schmidt. Of course, Duane won. You want to watch those guys, Duane, they get pretty rough sometimes. I left Drane and walked on down to the race track. I was told that the hot rod races were to be held at 6:30 P.M. with a very special feature race. I asked who the special attraction was and found out that it was Dorisse Ingramm and her Flying Motors. Dorlsse always was an avid hot rod fan. She must have gotten tired of sitting on the side lines and decided to try it out herself. I wished Dorisse good luck in her race which upset her very much as she told me that you are never supposed to wish a racer good luck in a forth-coming race. I decided to leave before I violated another code of the race track. On my way back to town I came to a neat little house trailer. I knocked on the door and was greeted by Jean Williams. Jean invited me in for a cup of coffee. As I entered the trailer I was greeted by the patter of little feet. Yes, Jean now has three sets of twins. Their ages are two, four and six. Names are as follows: Dewey and Luey, Carol and Barrel, and Bess and Mess. I asked her what her husband did and she said that he was now in the Foreign Legion. Jean expects him home in six years. Well, Jean always was good at waiting. As I stepped out into the street I was almost swept away by what I thought was a whirlwind. I inquired around and found out that I had been mistaken. Remember when we were initiated back in 1952 . If I remember correctly, Carol Reed had to ride a tricycle. Well, it seems that the idea stuck with her. She now races her English bike all over the United States and Europe. That was what had so nearly swept me away. She was now back in her home town practicing before she started on another tour. As I went on up the street I came to a big white house. It was a beautiful place with landscaped gardens. I knew it must be the home of a very important individual. Out of curiosity I went up to the door and inquired as to who lived there. The maid told me this was the home of the Mayer of Kingsville, William Brooker. I asked if I could see Bill and was shown to his office. Bill is certainly doing a good job of running Kingsville. He says the only thing he has trouble with is the teen-agers that insist on hot rodding up and down the street. Well, Bill always was against speeding. I said good-bye to Mayor Brooker and went on up to the public library. I decided to go in and look around. Guess who the librarian is, Marian Hoover. Marian says that she has 1,532,601 books in her library. She has also, read every one of them. Well, Marian that is quite an expansion from the 1,800 you took care of back in school. Marian is now married and lives with her husband on their 300 acre farm. Marian always did like living on a farm. I left the library and walked on down the street. As I went along I came to a newspaper stand and decided to buy one of Mary's papers. On the front page I noticed an advertisement. It was as follows: Harlem Globe Trotters playing at Kingsville School Gymnasium, Burton Bartrum, Manager. Burton always did a good job managing the Kingsville Kings so I bet he does a good Job with the Globe Trotters. I heard from the grapevine that Burton also plays his baritone with the Youngstown Philharmonic Orchestra. He played with their director in 1956 at Vienna and he must have really enjoyed him- self. Well, Burton has done pretty well with his musical talents and managing abilities so let's see who else we can find. As I came to the local barber shop I thought that the barber looked familiar. It was Frank Bobey. I went in and had a little talk with him. Frank says he specializes in giving D.A. hair cuts. He always did like those himself. Frank still has his orchestra only he has changed its name. It is now Jumpalong Rhapsody and his Crazy Four. He says he plays on TV every Saturday nite on Home Town Gang. I decided to go into the drugstore and have a soda. As I went in I noticed a small dark-haired lass standing among the funny books and candy. It was Nancy McMillen. She is now the sole owner of the largest drugstore in Kingsville. Nancy says she is doing a thriving business selling cokes and all kinds of odds and ends. Nancy always did like that drugstore work. She has never married either and says she has no desire to get married later on. While I was there I asked Nancy if she knew of any of the other kids from the Class of '56 that were still in town. She told me that Jim Burch was still in Kingsville. I asked her what he was doing for a living and she told me that ne was an artist. He now paints signs on bams advertising Mail Pouch Tobacco. Well, Jimmy always got the art work back in school so I suppose he thought he might as well continue it. Nancy also said that Victor Tiscenko was still in Kingsville. She told me that if I would turn the radio on I could hear him. Yes, Victor is now singing the commercials for the afternoon soap operas. He always did like operas but I thought they were a different kind. I must have been wrong. Victor also has his own column in the Kingsville Eavesdropper. It is entitled Advice to the Lovelorn. That is quite understandable. I an told that he gets fan mail all over the United States. That is all of the 1956 Senior Class. It looks like, as a whole, the class has done pretty good for themselves. But that isn't too surprising as everyone used to say that the Class of '56 was a very outstanding class. 18 19 {$JUaX V' e.tV yriv d rt 20 Senior Sketches JANET HINKLE Chorus....................2-3-4 Band......................2-3-4 Cheerleader...............2-3-4 Basketball Queen Candidate . . 2 Honor Society.................4 Plays.......................3-4 C-Lite........................4 K-Lite........................4 Secretary.....................3 Ambition—To be a successful beautician.

JuniorSenior Prom The annual Junior-Senior Prom for 19 55 was held on Saturday, April 30, at 6:30 P.M., at the Lutz Restaurant in Painesville. The Juniors (this year's seniors) worked very hard all year long selling refreshments at the basketball games, giving their play, and hav- ing dances just for this one night. The decorations were red and white carnations placed on the tables. Mary Reger gave the welcome and William Smith the response. Burton Bartrum was toastmaster. The Girls' Special Chorus sang Songs of the Islands. The theme for the '55 Prom was Hawaii. We gave leis to everyone to wear during the dance. Evelyn Hinkle read the Class Prophecy. Mr. Sprague gave a speech which was entitled Aloha, Seniors. The program was ended with the whole group singing Aloha Oe. After the meal and the program was over almost everyone stayed to enjoy the danc- ing. I am sure everyone had a good time and we are all looking forward to this year's Prom. 23 Eleventh Qrade BARBARA JAMES PAT BUDDY BEVERLY FRED NANCY CEDAR EDIXON TURNER BEARDSLEY STEVENS BROWN SLATER RICHARD JEANNETTE JOHN CAROL LARRY JUNE JAMES BRANCH WEAVER MEYER CARLE NICKA BARTRAM RISELY MARGARET ED ALICE WILLIE NANCY WILLIAM SUE DERRY WENTZ CLAY MAN HOCHCHILD WESTCOTT KONNERT MANSFIELD I JEAN JOHNETTE DAVIS EAKIN SANDRA BEVERLY MARILYN BANCROFT HERL SIMMONS ELINOR FAULKERSON SANDRA SIMON President----------- Vice-President------ Secretary----------- Treasurer----------- Student Council Representative---- Class Advisor------- -----William Hochschild ----------Barbara Cedar ---------Beverly Stevens ---------Nancy Westcott ------------Larry Nick a ------------Mr. Graham 24 Tenth Qrade LINDA MAE ROY BETTY RICHARD CAROL JAMES BETTE WILKINSON BEAN INGRAMM WRIGHT OREN MEYER SC H LICK TEDDY PEGGY BLANK BEAN LUCILLE JOHN WILLIE LINDA RONNIE HINKLE O'BELL ENSELL WE ST CO TT HOC HS CHILD LORAINE JAMES CARTER BOGAR SHIRLEY BOB SCHLICK ANDERJACK LOIS DAVID LINDA EMERY KISTER HADLOCK C5 'J RONNIE HUEY ELEANORE GEHRING CLAUDE KOBERNIK LUCILLE SCRUGGS CHARLES PAGE BARBARA MEYER FRED DEWEY EDDIE BOB LADIMAR CAROL FISHER HINKLE KUBICHEK GRAN President-----------------------------Carol Oren Vice-President-----------------Ronald Hochschild Secretary-------------------------Linda Westcott Treasurer------------------------Linda Wilkinson Class Advisor-------------------------Mr. Puchan £5 Ninth Qrade B.

The league included Kingsville, Rowe, Pierpont, Williamsfield, Andover, Austinburg, Rock Creek, Grand Valley and Demlng. This year the varisty team consisted of eight regular players . Two seniors, Frank Fisher and Duane Cleveland; three Juniors, Larry Nica, Bill Hochschild, and Bill Konnert; two sopho- mores, Jim Bogar and Bob Andrejack; and one freshman, Henry Bruckman. We also had four reserve players dress to help us out. They were Richard Branch, Ron Hochschild, John Konnert, and Bob Ensell. The team made a few journeys this year that we had not made before. We went to Grand Valley to play in the pre-season game with Andover. We also went to Girad, Pennsylvania to play in their new gym. The Varisty Cheerleaders this year are; Nancy Westcott, Janet Hinkle, and Carol Oren. Reserve The reserve team consisted of eleven players. One junior, Richard Branch; one sophomore, Ron Hochschild; and ten freshen, John Konnert, Bob Ensell, Gary Webstei, John Yoak, Ernest Lawrence, Gary Bancroft, Dari Brown, Jim Andrejack, Richard Turner, and Jerry Paulson. The managers this year were Burton Bartrum, Gary Carlson, and Billy Blake. The Reserve Cheerleaders were June Bartrum, Linda Wilkinson and Ruth Ann Hawn. Junior Play The class of 1956 presented their Junior Play at 8 o'clock, on the evening of April 1, 1955. To refresh your memories, here is a brief synopsis of the story. Jeff Masters, (Frank Bobey) a young man, arrives in a small New England town, and plies his trade as a carpenter. Though there is no mystery about his arrival, or his past (except that people are not in the habit of coming to small towns for no reason at all) the townspeople immediately start speculation. Jeff becomes a boarder in the home of Simon Farris (Burton Bartrum) and his wife, Martha (Shirley Pickens). The other members of the cast were; Liza, Simon and Martha's daughter, Glenna Bancroft; Mame Winters, Martha’s sister, Janet Hinkle; Peter Stone, Harold Weaver; Anna Priestly, Barbara Lovejoy; Salome Fisher, Mary Reger; Mark, Marne's son, Jim Edixon (Junior Class); Jimmy, Duane Cleveland; and Johnny, Billy Brooker. 47 Tuesday night, January 31, four more members were added to the National Honor Society chapter of K. H. S. They were as follows: Seniors; Janet Hinkle and Glenna Bancroft, and the Juniors were Bill Konnert, and Johnette Eakin. This brings the present membership to six with Seniors, Mary Reger and Burton Bartrum as the other two. Mary and Burton attended three meetings last year. They were held at Austinburg, Deming and Andover. Last fall at Andover, Burton Bartrum was elected Vice-President of the county chapter of the National Honor Society. The Student may get into the Honor Society by being in the top 33 1 3 percent of the class. He must also be in other activities. A pin is given to each member and on the pin are these four letters, L for Leadership, S for Scholarship, C for Character and S for Ser- vice. It's a great honor to be in this group. 48 Kingsville High School Chorus We, the students of Kingsville High School, are extremely proud of our Chorus this year. We think we have made a lot of progress this year because we have learned many new songs and have learned to sing parts better than we have ever done in previous years. We have quite a large group, about thirty-five. We are very proud of our leader, Mrs. McCausland, as she is very patient with us and is also very helpful. We hope that in future years the other members of this chorus will gain as much pleasure and satisfaction from singing in it as we have the past years. Qirls’ Special Chorus This year the Kingsville High School Girls' Chorus consists of about thirty capable girls. They sing for special occasions such as P.T.A. meetings and Granges in our community. This year they are working on music for the Spring Music Festival. They sing for this every year, but this year they hope to have some extra-special music in store for the audience. We are very proud of this chorus and hope that Mrs. McCausland will continue to direct the singing of it in years to come. 42 Student Council The student council officers for the school year term of 1955-1956 were as follows: Pres- ident, Burton Bartram; Vice-President, Mary Reger; Secretary, Barbara Cedar. Topics discussed during the year were traffic in the halls and a noon recreation program. They also awarded two prizes for the A. Z. Baker speech contest. These prizes were won by Janet Hinkle and Johnette Eaken. The librarians this year are Jim Risley, Alice dayman, Marilyn Simmons, Carol Oren, Ted Blank, Mary Lee Bobey, Marion Hoover, Elinor Reed, Jane Mead, and Sharon Sulin. We have many new books in the library this year. We have several reference books that are very helpful in finding various information. Several people in the community have contributed magazines to the library. Mr. Beardsley, Buddy's father, gave the Nature Magazine and the owner of Pop Inn contribut- ed Nation's Business. The Scientific American is also a new magazine in the library. The new lights in the library and study hall were given by the class of 1955. They are much nicer than the other lights. We have a new table and chairs. The table has compartments where you can put your books while you are in the library. With the addition of this table we now have a total of five tables and chairs, enough to accommodate twenty people at one time. We also have a new blackboard in the library. There is a new metal filing cabinet on the librarian's desk. 51 K'Lite Staff tinkle, Nancy McMillen, Marrison ncroft, Ruth Ai vleyers, Patsy I interested in ■ Pierpont lately Dear Ellswyth and Who’s The girl' Does Beverly Coy j m so «1 j you e( Blanche: g1 1 you decided to write bell ’ My tht- way, who’ -'to me bc,'L? taking an x- trip of X which would pir J-ly never Kike at Tu ' — live t', rabout..- x-T it - - eqi li JBk is.

A cast of ten presented the play, and along with the help of the other classmates made the play a big success for the seniors. After the play the seniors and their guests were invited to a party at Leroy Campbell's sister's home. All worked hard but enjoyed themselves. Basketball Queen Friday evening, January 13, was the night of our homecoming game with Pierpont and the crowning of our basketball queen. Sharon Reydak, carrying flowers, and Dale Smith, carry- ing a pillow with the queen's name on it, led the procession. They were followed by Duane Cleveland, Kingsville, and Bob Fenton, Pierpont, escorting last year's queen. Then came the class candidates and their escorts. Duane led the new queen, Glenna Bancroft, to the throne and Bob Fenton presented her with a dozen red roses. Glenna was crowned by last year's queen, Jean Williams. The cheerleaders led in the singing of the Alma Mater and then the queen and her court marched out between an aisle formed by the cheerleaders. 53 Track Team Baseball Team We, the students of Kingsville High School, are very proud of our Track Team. Last season our boys were the runners-up in Ashtabula County. The fellows on that team were Wilson Osborn, Frank Bobey, James Burch, William Schreck, Frank Fisher, William Konnert, James Risley, James Edixon, Joseph Rodebaugh, James Bogar, Jeffrey Miller, John Meyer, James Meyer, and Richard Branch. A large percentage of these boys are still on the team, as you will note from the picture. The Kings were able to win one game in regular season. They played seven games in all. Bill Konnert pitched most of the games with Richard Wright help- ing out. The team lost the first game in the tournament, thus losing their chan- ces of another championship. Junior Track Team John Konnert, Vemon Bruckman, Jerry Paulson, and Robert Ensell. 54 55 Get The Best—Get Telling Belle Vernon Co.
