That's her order wherever she goes. Pat loves it and hopes that Bowling Green University serves plenty for she wants to enter the school next fall. Another ambition is to become a beautician. Her greatest thrill came last spring when she was chosen for the cheering squad. Take a listen at the football games and . . . Yep! She's the one making the most noise. Home is 902 Herman Avenue, but that's just where she can't be found. One can usually spot her at the.Y with Doris Sharp, or assisting Keith Wolfram with his dancing lessons. If you've ever been to Loew's Theater, you've undoubtedly seen this brown eyed, brown haired lass selling popcom and candy. Her greatest disappointment came in losing the Kiser-Fairview football game by one point. Born in Dayton 17 years ago, civics rates tops with this 5 foot, 6 inch Kiserite. For a knock on the block, 'call her Patty, but Patty is really - swell. KEITH WOLFRAM . . . New teacher in school? Yes, both stu- dent and teacher. Call him Maes- tro Wolfram for he really is a Maestro at dancing and teaches anyone for 50 cents per lesson. Hitchhiking to California with 32.50 in his pocket was the thrill of a lifetime for Keith. The purpose, of course, to study dancing. One hundred twenty-five pounds Wolfe Studio neatly stacked into 5 feet, 7 inches can usually be found at the Y with all the gang. When he's not there, drop in at the Flohre residence. Keith is looking forward to November 23, when, for the first time, he can exercise his privilege in the voting ' booth. CHe'll be 21.1 His greatest disappointment was when he had such hard luck in New York. Someone relieved him of all his greenbacks. e .If possible, Bowling Green University will claim 'Keith' next fall. To be successful in whatever I do is his ambition.

Sounds sorta funny, but Loretta Francis did just that. She was playing football in gym when she accidentally slid into a worm. Ooie-gooie was a worm. Bobby Koenig claims to have an uncle who suppos- edly is a taxi-cab driver. Bobby says his uncle plays Cupid when he has a man and lady passenger. My uncle can marry them right in the cab, quoth Bobby, because he's a 'master-of-ceremonies. ' Just for the books we think he's a justice-of-the-peace. We have a new champeen at Kiser. We haven't decided what medal Jim Peck will get, but we agree that anyone who drinks four cokes in eight swallows in five minutes sure deserves some award. CBesides a stomachachel . I-Iey, girls, didja ever walk into s room and all you could hear were male voices? One Kiser lass did. But lo and behold, when she heard the voices she ran, be- cause, the voices Marilyn Barthman heard were Kiser boys and the room she was in was the boys' locker room. It must be nice to be brainy! Mr. Talbot was deliver- ing a lecture in his math class. Intelligently he said, Pi R Square. Dot Woodall popped up with this witty remark, I always heard they were round. BUS DRIVEIPS OPINION OF KISER STUDENT- Pat Vance and Theda Miller were runnin' to catch a trolley. Theda was afraid the driver wouldn't see them and stop. She began wavin' her arms and shoutin' to get his attention. The trolley stopped and the girls climbed aboard. The bus driver eyed Theda and finally said, 'There for a minute I thought you were Tarzan's mate! Merrily we brush our teeth, brush our teeth, brush our teeth, early in the mornin'. Janet Lambert brushes her teeth, too. The other mornin' she wasn't quite awake so instead of using toothpaste, by mistake she used shaving cream. Do ya' s'pose she'll grow whiskers on her teeth? We really gotta leave, Sorry we can't stay. But 'we'll be back to see ya', The next Panther day. -71.411 In -ma ra: New year, new council, and new officers raise ques- tion, what the student council can do, what the school, as a whole, expects them to do, and what we have to do to help them maintain their endeavor. Previously, Kiser has had more or less a ghost council instead of a student council. We trust that the 1950-'51 officers will do their utmost to push diligently toward the betterment of the school. If the results of the recent paper drive, the student council sponsored, are any indication of their future activities, we feel that they have a good start toward a successful year. One thousand pounds of paper were obtained, netting 100 dollars. The money goes towards the advancement of other organizations. The foundation of the school is based upon the stu- dent council. In order to sustain its aim, we, the students, must back up their enterprise with complete co-operation. Of what good is the student council? It gives pupils experience in democratic processes and harmony be- tween the student body and the faculty. Today, in the world of trials and tribulations, we need an organization to promote our welfare in school. We trust the council will meet our needs. Students and teachers of Kiser High School are be- hind them one hundred percent. ' We wish the student council great success, and hope they grow with exuberance to the extent where the student body as well as the faculty, can be extremely proud of them. nell, and Ronnie Mabry. Extended Evening Bill Gartner and Carroll Taylor were stuck with the dishes at a party given by Pat Roser, October 14. When the gang dispersed along about twelve, 5 of the girls decided to keep Pat company all night. They were: Shirley King, Barbara Ryan, Phyllis Flohre, Nancy Lowery, and Juanita Downey. Freshmen Doings Freshmen got off to a good start this year when Barbara Ryan and Phyllis Flohre gave a wiener roast, September 29, at Englewood Dam. Twelve Kiser couples failed to eat enough hot dogs so three dozens were brought back home. Anybody hungry? Double Duty Marg Kirks plans to kill two birds with one stone tomorrow night at her home. She is having a Halloween party and at the same time will be celebrating Wilma Welch's birthday. 1 Llilllll. ? These ghosts were caught prowling outside of Kiser in pre-I-Ialloween celebrations. In eerie voices they told us they were born in Dayton, and have been haunting houses on Leo Street for 14 years. Beneath their phantom robes are two freshmen, a blonde, blue-eyed, 5 foot 2 inch girl, and a blonde, haz- el-eyed, 5 foot 9 inch boy. Miss Spooky comes from'St. Joseph grade school while Mr. Spooky is a gradu- ate of McGuffey Ghost Academy. He can be seen floating around the football field, and also was seen on the basketball floor last year. On dark nights Margaret Barthelemy and Marjorie Topp have been seen roaming over the universe with Miss Spooky. To contact these spirits call I-IE 5152 or AD 6364 and arrange for a seance. Their bodies are found in rooms 216 and 217 during home room period. If these spooks don't appear before you in the seance, take a look in the ads.

Almost all the countries in the world celebrate Hallow- een differently than we do. In England, Halloween is called Allan's Night. All the little children are given apples to put under their pillows before they go to bed. If they aren't good or haven't be- haved well they don't get one. Imagine Rex Jackson crying himself to sleep because he didn't receive his apple. To prove that her lover is faithful in Ireland a girl puts three nuts on a grate, and if they crack her lover is sup- posed to be unfaithful. Here Halloween is observed as a day of superstition. Hey Pat Vance how did yours come out? There are also three other crackpots around this school vwxoct who thought they would try their luck. Shirley Bockrath, Jim Richey, and Judy Brookey. Another one of the British Isles, Scotland, celebrated by going into the fields and pulling corn stalks. The kids go back to the fireside to measure their stalks. The length of the stalks is supposed to be the height of your husband or wife. ' Okay Dave Bodiker, how tall is she? - How about it, Don Hortman, did your stalk fit? ' Good luck Bill' Garrison hope yours is the rightheight! In the United States Halloween is celebrated by pulling practical jokes. Some of them are, soaping windows, dress- ing in different costumes and begging food from your neighbors. Say' Keith Wolfram, don't you get enough to eat at home without going begging for more? I What have we now? Here comes some more of Kise1 s vagrants, Jo-Ann Davis, Marilyn Saum, Doris Sharp, and Pat Flohre. Ya know what they're doin? Ya guessed it! They're hungry too!

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1950 THE KISER R. PANTHER ,.,.--, ..:,-- -3-1' . -. , .,,w - ..:.,-, PAGE Meet the FACULTY i Pnoro BY CHARLES BASS This issue we would like to intro- duce Miss Estella Pearson. With the exception of two years when the eighth grades were moved to Mc- Guliey School, Miss Pearson has been almost continuously at Kiser since 1926. Wittenberg College was the school at which she studied teaching and received her Bachelor of Science de- gree. She has also studied toward a Masters degree at Columbia Univer- sity in New York and Miami Univer- sity at Oxford, Ohio. Collecting antiques is Miss Pear- son's favorite hobby. During this past summer she acquired some dishes, a music box, and furniture- that be- longed to her great grandmother. Miss Pearson was greatly honored also this summer when she was a delegate to the N.E.A. fNational Education Associationj Convention in St. Louis, Missouri. Home to Miss Pearson is 406 Forest Ave., where she lives with her mother. She is a native of Troy, Ohio, and a graduate of Troy High School. For this reason she is always inter- ested in the outcome of the Troy- Kiser game. Red Cross gift boxes will be dis- tributed next week. Each home room will have two boxes to fill. 40 Students Join F.T.A. Chapter Forty new members were wel- comed into the Horace Mann Chapter of the F.T.A. fFuture Teachers of Americaj at a meeting held last Wednesday in room 229. Opening the program was an ad- dress of welcome by D. L. Sollen- berger, followed by a prayer for the guidance of the F.T.A. oiiered by William Hollinger. James Hendrick- son, sponsor, then gave the introduc- tions. After the musical entertainment provided by Mattie Brown and Daris Forgy, doughnuts and soft drinks were served by the refreshment committee. Before adjournment it was an- nounced that an election of ofiicers will take place at the next meeting for which no definite date has been set. Having an average membership of 20 students, the F.T.A. is in its fourth year at Kiser. Membership in the club is not lim- ited to those students who wish to teach. Having as its goal the recruit- ment of teachers, the club is an ex- ploratory one. - Community Chest Drive Nets 3417.59 At Kiser Total collection at Kiser for the 1950 Community Chest Drive reached 54759. Kiser fell under its last year's record of 348.70 by 51.11. Although it exceeded the total of 33200, of two years ago. Kiser's contribution to the Chest was presented October 19, in Bilt- more Hotel by Bob Comer, student, and C. E. Shannon, assistant princi- pal, at a Community Chest School Day luncheon. The last issue of THE Krsna PANTHI-:R containing two stories about the Community Chest was entered in a contest. A Feature story about the Barney Convalescent Hospital by Shirlee Parnell was the main entry. Judy Brookey wrote the editorial about the Red Feather helping the community. A news story on the same subject appeared in the first issue, by Bar- bara Towson. W. H.'TAPPER AND CU.

Requirements for these girls in- clude an average or better scholastic standing and regular attendance. One fourth credit is given to a girl working in the library for the school term. According to Miss Helen Wal- cutt, librarian, girls looking ahead to the honor society should keep this in mind. Being an assistant is consid- ered as service to the school, a re- quirement of the society. Some of the various jobs and re- sponsibilities of these girls are: checking in books, carding and shelving returned books, stamping books, reading the shelves, and tak- ing permits to the proper study halls. Working in the library before school starts is Kathleen Grusen- meyer who also works third period. Activity period near the library will be found Charlotte Bowles, Joyce Burnett, Betty Jean Barnhart, Sue McFadden, Pat Williams, and Virginia Williams.
