I know you must have since Bon- nie's most embarrassing moment occurred there last summer while jitterbugging with Bob Comer. Her 5 feet 6 inch, 125 pound frame plopped flat on the floor with Bob beside her. For eight years she lived in Newark, Ohio and now resides at 134 Ashley Street. Every school moming one will find Bonnie working in the oiiice and after school she'll be at Har- tels. On Monday nights and Satur- days The Home Store claims her in their shoe department. In her spare time she's usually at a Y- teen or A.Z.T. meeting or presiding over K.G.S, sorority. She would rather engage in her favorite pastime, dancing, than eat her favorite food, hamburgers and french fries. Football and track rate tops with Bonnie when it comes to sports. After graduation she will enter Miami Jacobs Busi- ness School to fulfill her ambition as a secretary. BOB COMER . . . Hey, all you modest girls who wear your socks up to your knees, beware! Bob said this is his pet peeve. His 185 pounds are tough, so look out! A native of Dayton all of his 18 years, Bob now lives at 2427 Troy Street where his mother stocks the cupboard with two jars of peanut butter per week just for him. But she dares not put aaurkraut there. When he's not working at Rikes, Curley spends a lot of his time at the Y.W. dancing, or at Hartels with the gang. A His blue eyes really looked thrilled when he saw Stan Kenton this fall at Castle Farms. While at ' the Chaminade-Kiser football game they changed to a look of disappointment. ,Last summer Bob was a part-time life guard at Eastwood swimming pool. At other times he was usually there enjoying his favorite sport. - Homework is an enemy of Bob's but he likes working on cars.

Entire cast of the senior class play and everyone who worked back stage in any way were invited to attend the gathering held November 17. Usual party chow was served amid a setting which carried out the theme of the play, Cheaper by the Dozen. Birthday Greetings! Birthday greetings and well wishes were extended to Panther editor, Judy Brookey, at a party held on her birthday, Nov. 15. Bill Lehman, La Verne Brown, Jerry Warren, JoAnn Davis, Chuck Howerton, Louise Av- ery, Bob Raby, Donna DeForest, and Dick Jones were on hand to help Judy celebrate this all-important day. Sadie l'lawkirS' Night! Carolyn Fischer's home was the scene of a Sadie Hawkins' Night par- ty held Nov. 18.

H ' r n .. r' ' ' 1- lm 'max' A-All Practically all traces of last month's sudden snow blizzard are erased from our city, but the experience is one which we will long remember. To some of us it will be an unpleasant memory. We may think only of the inconvenience we suffered. Transportation was halted and many activities and ap- pointments had to be postponed. Deliveries were de- layed and in some cases use of the telephone was cut off. The shortage of some fuels also raised a serious problem. But to every cloud there is a silver lining and this storm cloud was no exception. Children glorified in the fun and excitement which comes with the falling of snow. They chose sides for snowball fights, slid head- long down hills with careless abandon, shrieking and shouting with all the unabashed gaiety of youth. In addition to the cold and discomfort, the blizzard brought a new kind of friendliness and human warmth Everywhere you looked you ,could find visible signs oi this--the football player helping an old lady across the snow-drifted streetsg the businessman working side by side with the common laborer in an effort to comba1 Mother Nature, a Catholic family sharing its food, warmth, and home with a family of Jews. Yes, certainly the storm brought some unpleasantnes: but was it enough to keep us from wondering tha' maybe this blizzard had some definite purpose. Perhap: it was intended to open our eyes to things we long had been blind to. You decide for yourselves: was this bliz- zard really a catastrophe?

Messages were written in shorthand and the covers typed in various designs. Before starting to work on the cards the first year typing students practice making designs. Purpose of the work is to teach proportion and mechanical manipulation. Posters were also made by some of the members of the bookkeeping classes. Norma Williams illustrated business ettiquette with her posters. Jerry Gordon has illustrated the va- rious steps in accounting to show how to get a job in the business world. Mixing of the paints was done by Lois Hoefer and Barbara Hanes. K.D.A.A. Sells Pencils K.D.A.A.

I SMILING BOB WEAVER Assembl For School Safety Is Tomorrow Oflicer Bob Weaver from the School Safety Department of the Dayton Police will be guest speaker at a safety assembly in the Kiser auditorium tomorrow morning. This assembly is one of the many programs the Student Council has planned for student body this year. It was planned to carry out the idea of safety among school students through a campaign. Officer Weaver is known to most students as Smilin' Bob Weaver. He was formerly a patrolman at Sec- ond and Main Streets where he eamed the reputation of being Day- ton's most cheerful policeman. He will speak on TrafHc Accidents and Pedestrian Safety. A movie, Last Date, will be shown. It deals with the subject of teenicide and hot-rod drivers. This movie will show the contrast be- tween a sensible teenager driver-and a so called hot-rod driver. Kiser's Student Council is con- ducting the Safety Campaign this week, December 11 through 16. Students from Miss Ruth Wilson's art classes have been working on posters for safety which will be hung in the halls during the campaign. Pictured above is Smilin' Bob Weaver of the Dayton Police Force. '-.v..4:1..:- ...th -.,!w.'. .. ,N l V - -- 1 -' 'fi ' ' ' ' J

' Meet the A I FAC LTY BY SHIRLEE PARNELL W , N D. l Miss Bemeece Overholtz' is in the spotlight for this issue. She is a na- tive of Oxford, Ohio, and a graduate of Oxford Stuart High. After graduating from Miami Uni- versity, with a B.S. in Business Ad- ministration and Education, she re- ceived an M.A. in Education. Miss Overholtz has held various positions with different companies and worked on a newspaper du.ring her summer vacations from college. She came to Kiser in 1948 to teach in the commercial department. Mon- roe High in Butler county is the only other school where Miss Overholtz has taught. Keeping her residence in Oxford 'with her parents over week-ends, Miss Overholtz lives with Miss Rosa- mond Wyrick Ceighth grade teacher herele throughout the week. Pictured above is Miss Overholtz at a chart of the typewriter key board. During the war she organized the Clerical Training for the Signal Corp and the Civilian Training and Test- ing program at the Wilmington Pike Air Depot. Survey Sheets Distributed To X . Kiser Students Public law 815 and 874 survey sheets were distributed to approxi- mately 75 Kiser students last Tues- day by homeroom teachers. Provisions of the law state that the government will pay 70 per cent of the cost of any new building which they approve, to all school systems enrolling 5 or more per cent students who meet the requirements. Under the supervision of the Board of Education, the survey was to de- termine how many students lived in government housing projects or had parents who were federal employees. To qualify, however, their jobs had to be connected with the war effort or with federal agencies serving more than just the local area. Parksides homes, Summit Court, Edgewood Court, Bolander Homes, and DeSoto Bass Courts were ex- cluded from t.he list of eligible housing projects. When the Panther went to press, all blanks had not been returnedg therefore results of the survey at Kiser were not available. Martin, Lewis Highlight Chicago Convention Seeing Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, comedians, was one of the highlights of the National Scholastic Press Association convention attend- ed by Panther staff members, Bar- bara Taylor and Joyce Cooke, Nov. 24, 25.

Stivers News Is Called The Stivers Panther Stivers News has changed its name to the Stivers Panther, according to the Column Teens-Talking in the De- cember 3 edition of the Dayton Daily News. Can this be? Teens-Talking, a regular been-age column, carried a story about the Stivers Panther. The staff of the Kiser Panther considers it somewhat flattering that their paper is so popu- lar another school wants to use its name.
