WOOD TABLE OF CONTENTS Administration 2 Faculty 4 Seniors 19 Underclassmen 33 Royalty 43 Organizations 51 Athletics 73 Foreword High School is four years of firsts and lasts. It is the time of your first Mixer and Junior-Senior Prom. As a senior it becomes a time of good-byes to lifelong friends. With the passing of years, may you look back upon the 1970-71 school year with only pleasant thoughts. This book serves as an eternal record of the pleasant memories of KHS. We, the annual staff, have strived to capture within these pages the essence of these irretrievable years. 2 Administration New to Kansas as well as to U. S. D. 347, is Dr. William H. Phillips. Dr. Phillips received his doctorate from the University of New Mexico, and his undergraduate and master's degrees from schools in Texas. Previous to completing his doctorate, Dr. Phillips has served as a classroom teacher, a principal of both elementary and secondary schools, and as superintendent. Having known some difficult times in the course of gaining his education, Dr. Phillips was a fighter holding scholarships in Boxing. He is still a fighter, but now his cause is for better schools for the youth of this community. A very major portion of his time this past year has been spent in seeking additional funds and to make the very best use of the funds which are available to support the schools in our district. He has worked closely with civic groups including die Boy Scouts, the American Legion and the Rotarians, as the programs of these groups relate to the work and welfare of the young people. DR. PHILLIPS SUPERINTENDENT Miss Nadine L. Stallard has been a member of the staff of KHS the past six years, and in addition to serving as counselor to the students in KHS has been given responsibilities in the areas of the Title Programs and the Cooperative Special Education program. Miss Stallard has had all of her college work at the University of Kansas, receiving the Specialist Degree in Guidance and Counseling in 1965. Additional specialized work has been taken at the University of Chicago three different summers. This work was in the area of psychological testing as related to both intelligence and personality. At KHS Miss Stallard is co-sponsor of the National Honor Society, and formerly has been Pep Club sponsor. Miss Stallard has been active in her professional counselor groups, and is currently national vice-president for Secondary Counselors of the American School Counselor's Association. MISS STALLARD COUNSELOR Mr. William C. Scott, high school principal, previously was a social science teacher and wrestling coach at Olathe, Kansas. Earlier he taught one year in a large vocational school in St. Louis. He quickly found that he preferred Kansas and high school youth. Mr. Scott is a graduate of Baker University at Baldwin, Kansas, and received his master's degree in school administration from the University of Kansas. In addition to serving as high school principal, he is also the Athletic Director, and in these combined roles has come to know the students, the coaches, and patrons of this community. As principal, Mr. Scott is the sponsor of the National Honor Society, and Adviser to the Student Council of KHS. MR. SCOTT PRINCIPAL 3 MRS. BIGANE English French MR.

DEPAR TMENTS Mrs. McKee helping Maurice Schaller understand his lesson. During the 1970-1971 school year, the students of K.H. S. developed their language skills in English, Spanish, French, and Speech courses. Latin was dropped because of a lack of a teacher. Thanks to Mrs. Winkler, Mrs. Bigane, Mrs. McKee, and Miss Striet, the learning and understanding of the languages was made easier. Advanced Senior Composition was offered in place of Journalism this year. Underclassmen and upperclassmen all feel that they have to take too much English, but without it how could they ever communicate with their neighbors?

Each of the 60 Drivers Ed. students spent 60 hours in the classroom, 6 hours driving, and 30 hours observing. This course enabled the students to receive Kansas drivers' licenses without taking the usual test.

Rem Tyler is acting principal and Christy Smith is his mixed-up secretary. Christy gets Sally Renwick's orders mixed up and havoc occurs throughout the school. She gets the wrong color of paints, shocking pink, for the conference room and orders new tables and chairs for the cafeteria, which the school board voted against. It seems Mr. Clarke gets blamed for all, but in the end matters do get straightened out and the play ends on a happy note. Rem find his long lost sign. Lets get things straight here.

The team, coached by Mr. Martin and Mr. Kasselman, started off by winning six of their seven duel matches, losing the seventh by a narrow margin to Garden City, which later placed first in the class 4-5A State Wrestling Tournament. After taking the class 1-2A District Wrestling Championship, eleven wrestlers went on to the Reginal Tournament. Six of these were fortunate enough to go on to the State Tournament, where Kinsley took fourth place. Because of the wrestlers' skill, determination, and hard work, the 1970-1971 season has been the best ever.
