Page Four to the ALUMNI of K. H. S. who often recall the nostalgic strains of the school song of Kirkwood High School, which Will live forever as a symbol of their high school life. Page Five Mr. F. W. Hendricks, Superintendent; Mr. M. Moore, Principal. , Our Condwcllom Allow us to introduce to you the conductors of Kirkwood's Symphony, The Board of Educa- tion, Mr. Hendricks, superintendent, and Mr. Moore, principal. They have set the score for our musicale which consists of a program at the best quality and balance obtainable, and blended to form a tuH-toned, harmonious school life while at K. H. 8., as well as establishing the fundamentals for our futures. As our school life progresses we are enriched by patterns com- plicating the melody, but our conductors are always capable of indicating the proper tempo and rhythm to secure unanimity. The highest function of any conductor is to interpret the intention and spirit of music and this concep- tion must be conveyed by general attitudes and a diffused magnetic impression. we feel that in the leaders of our symphony of school life we have a thorough example of fine interpreta- tion as reflected in the democratic organization, progressive standards, and excellent principles which flourish in the movements of our syme phony at K. H. S. We hope that each year as the conductors see their ideals fulfilled they will be inspired to ever greater glories tor the students of dear old K. H. S. Our sincerest good wishes to the conductors of Kirkwood High School, and congratulations for your interest, effort, and achievement which has made for us four eri- joyable yeaTs as the curtain rings down on 1948. Mr. F. W. Hendricks, Superintendent; Mrs. Hazel Dubois; Mrs. Hope Baker, Secretary; Mrs. Virginia Fawcetti Treasurer; Mr. Fred Farrow, President; Mr. Charles Diekroeger, Vice-President; Mr. Ioseph Mills; Mr, L. Ackerman. Page Six In all organizations! whether musi- cal or otherwise, effective adminis- trators are necessary. Our great moving symphony at K. H. S. is no exception to the rule. Mr. Moore, principal, Mr. Koerber, treasurer, and Mrs. Isaac, acting secretary during Mrs. Ballard's trip abroad, help to blend in perfect harmony our classes, spotts, and other activities so that discordant measures may be eradi- cated as much as possible. When the tempo becomes a bit faster than that of any conventional orchestra, sympathetic understanding makes all harmonious. Mr. Sarff, Kirkwood's assistant principal, and Mrs. Broderick, secre- taryl are comparable to the accom- panists of our symphonyi Their watchful interest and untiring efforts help to keep the theme mellow. They sound the right notes when our tones are too sharp or flat and are always on hand to turn the pages of our daily music so that we may con- tinue our symphony smoothly and without too many unnecessary inter- ruptions. When guidance and effective inter- pretation are necessary to make lites symphony harmonize, the guidance staff, Mr. Moore, Mr. Sartf, Mr. Wright, Miss Abbott, Miss James, Mr. Cochran, Mr. Propst, Mrs. Hoester, Mrs. McGregor, and Miss Hartman effectively distinguish the fortissimo and pianissirno of the tones of our lives. Through their direction your score, whether treble or bass, will gain a pleasing effect, thus produc- ing depth and quality in a melodious creation that will live for years. Often it becomes necessary to re- write our scores so that they may be adapted to some performance other than that for which it was originally intended. Then, too, it is often neces- sary to keep records for future refer- ence. This work is capably carried on by our transcribers, Miss Thursby, Mrs. DuBois, Mrs. McGregor, and Mrs. Felker, who assist Superintend- ent HendIicks in maintaining an effi- cient school organization.

S. is comparable to a song of life. AppraprLately we have chosen our school song as the theme for the Pioneer of 1948. Like the development of any piece of music, the harmony of our Classes depends upon the prepa- ration, the score, and the conductors. Individual differences lend a diversity of tone, but under well-developed conducting the results may be as harmonious as the stratns of: Hail Kirkwood High School, Unto thee we sing.

Although the actual record doesn't look too impressive, it was a very good sea- son. The Millermen won fifteen games while losing only eight, and of these eight there were only five different teams that beat them. The eight defeats came at the hands of Cleveland, Maplewood, St. Louis U., Brentwood, and University City. Cleveland was rated the second best team in the district, Maple- wood third, and U. City fourth, which shows the power it took to defeat the Pioneers. Kirkwood's greatest disappointment came when it was upset by Brentwood and lost its chance to win the Sub urban title. The boys ended the season tied for first place with three other teams, took second place in the Webster Sub-Regional, and was one of the teams chosen for the district tournament. The Pio- neers were rated sixth in the St. Louis district with an All-District Player in Charlie Meyers, the captain. VARSITY BASKETBALL Coach ............................. Denver P.

He had many small boys, which was a terrific handicap. The season's record was rather poor with three wins and thirteen losses, but Coach Nagel did a great job of training his boys for varsity competition. Although the team didn't win many games, they came very close quite a few times. One can always expect to see a real battie when the NB team takes to the floor. The high scorer of the season was little Stephen De- Staebler, who had 105 points. There are many fine prospects for the coming varsity team in Dwight Buchanan, Chariie McClaren, Bob Bierk, Dan Finch, Bert Gedney, and Paul Ferber. The B team was a very hard playing team that would never give up; it was a thrill to watch a team that always worked hard and improved as much as this team did.

S. can expect a better than average team, fully trained in best field and track techniques for participation in the dual, invitational, dis- trict, and state meets. Although the team will feel greatly the loss of such men as Virgil Kendall and Emil Neuge- bauer, 440 man and miler, respectively they will still be honored by the services of Mags, Rutledge, Jackson, Fawcettl Jones, Munroe, cmd Zeppenteld.

Each year the junior team partici- pates in all dual meets in which the senior teams engage and in many of the combined district and invitational meets. This year the juniors will have to do with- out the services of three aces: Tad Rutledge in the dashes; Dave Jones in the dashes and pole vaults; and Chuck Dart in the discus and shot- put. We hope that these boys will produce as many points for the senior team as they did for the juniors. This will be c1 great year for the junior team to develop Ct new man in the shot and discus to replace the loss of two aces. There is CI great challenge in the breaking of many past records, and we look forward to a promising track future.

The one bright spot is that two starting pitchers, lake Heutel cmd Bob Harrison, will return to the diamond. Although Coaches Conklin and Borgmier are going to miss the other boys who brought glory to K. H. S. last year! they are expecting great things from the new boys who are trying out for the team.

H. S. ready to jump into baseball by signing their names for intramural teams. The game itself is popular, thus making quite Ct hit with the girl athletes of Kirkwood High. These gods can give it all they have by winning those games this year, which promises to be one of the best. WQM Kirkwood hots some very fine prospects for their 1948 volleyball season.

This training plays an important part in the plan- ning for all future activities. The organization under the co-sponsorship of Mr. Wright and Mr. Sarif hopes to keep the whole school as one great symphony. In its weekly meetings the council plans many social functions. Among these were the promoting of the Turkey Day Parade, sponsor- ing assemblies, selling Pioneer buttons, playing Christmas music before school in the halls, the planning of the May Fete, and holding CI school carnival in the spring.

The student body is too large to accomplish each individual aim, but as long as these ideas we passed on into the Student Council through the capable representatives, the school will re- main free and democratic.

The production was given on May 7 and 8, and Mr. Smith and the cast deserve recogni- tion tor a fine performance which thoroughly entertained the audience. .4 CappeKza Clam? The A Cappella Choir, under the fine leade ership of Miss Todd, is the greatest accomplish- ment of K. H. S.'s musically inclined students. The group, composed of select voices, experi ences CI more difficult type of music! both sacred and secular. With such outstanding performances as th? Christmas Concert, the County Music Festival, the Spring Concert, and assembly and gTCIduCI- tion programs, the choir has well represented our school. Several members of the choir will be selected to sing with the AH-County Chorus, which presents CI magnificent program each spring. In our symphony at K. H.

An eoriy-moming session. worked until it attained and held CI position CIS one of the finest orchestras in the county. Among other achievements, this fall the Kirk- wood orchestra combined with Normandy and played at the Kiel Auditorium for the State Teachers' Convention. At the traditional Christ- mas Concert the group won much praise. They played tor both dramatic productions as well CIS for the commencement exercises. The Music Festival in the spring, which is annually at- tended by many county music groups, is the peak of the year's accomplishments. Eleven members have been chosen to represent Kirk- wood in the Ali-Ccunty Orchestra. These grand performances are attributable to many hours of practice, but the orchestra as a whole rehearses only three days a week before school. Such a successful season denotes superb co- operation of both the participants and the leader.
