Cole, Mrs. R. Speelman, Mrs. C. Lohrey, D. L. Sollenberger, prin- cipal, and C. Lohrey. Carl I-Iartel was not present when picture was taken. P.T.A. Launches Yearly Campaign A goal of 1000 members has been set by the P. T. A. in their annual membership drive according to Mrs. Robert Hudson, P. T. A. president. If the goal is reached it would be the highest ever recorded. The drive last year fell short of the goal of 1000, but reached 950 members. The P. T. A. each year has a project they work for. Last year they helped buy new band uniforms which will be worn next Saturday at the Dunbar game. J. C. Hendricksonh Latin teacher will head the drive here at Kiser, while room mothers will try to get parents to join. Membership this year is the same ,as last year-50 cents a person or one dollar a couple. The P. T. A. hasn't been ,able to overcome the lack of interest which is taken in it's monthly meetings. For example only 75 people were present at the first meeting and over half of them were teachers and their friends. Mrs. Hudson has some interesting programs planned. They are: October, an open house: November, Civil De- fense, December, Christmas Pro- gram, and January will be fun night. The P. T. A. invites every parent to the meetings. Senior Picnic Slated Triangle park will be the site of the senior class picnic this year to be held, Wednesday, Oct. 7. Don Thies has been selected chair- man of the picnic committee under the supervision of W. M. Stover. ,Sixty-five cents will permit any '54er to participate. All profits made will' go to the treasury. Outdoor activities such as horse- shoes, baseball, volley ball, and foot- ball will be available. For those who prefer it, recorded music will be on hand inside the large shelter. 1 -'Y Y To Be Held t Kiser Oct. 1-25 Lohrey,.

It has been discovered that atomic energy is a wonderful food preserver and, when processed by it, milk could be kept for three months with- out keeping it cold. Wonderful things are in store for us in the years to come. Atomic war- fare may be the least important use of atomic energy. Our future in atomic energy de- pends on the resourcefulness of to- day's youth. Mi ellaneou BY JOAN BIIEWER Well school has started once again And classes are a buzzin'. Homework? Well-ll-ll We're carrying books home by the dozen. Do any of you need some spare dough? Well why not stop in at Certified Bakery? It appears that they give it away. The only catch is, that it isn't the green stuff we like. Some Kiser kids stopped in at the bakery following the Football Premier and ask if they wouldn't give them some free bread? They agreedonly to disappoint the girls by giving them dough What do you think of Ted Stradei-'s styles? Well, they had better be good because Ted is writing the column 1 ' n - h h' 'Fads, Fashions, and Facts this year. By l e way t is is the first time any boy has ever written this column. More power to you Ted! Mr. Gehring, after explaining that Marco Polo spent 17 years in the court of Kublai Kahn, asked Rome Simp- son, when Marco retumed home. Rome, not knowing the answer, yet being a bright student, answered, Sev- enteen years after he left. ' l-las anything especially funny happened around school lately? If so, why not let us know about it. For you students who are new in this school, this column is devoted to mostly humorous happenings around the school that we thinkthe rest of the school would like to know about. If you know of any why not write about it and put it in the Panther Box, located in the cafeteria. Boy! Was the Troy game ever exciting! At least Larry Guinn must have thought so. When Kiser made their first touchdown, Larry jumped up and down and clapped his hands vigorously. The only thing wrong with his enthusiasm was that he happened to have two of the football player's watches in his hands. Result? Two broken watches. Just ask Jim Bratton or Don Swihart the time and see what kind of reaction you get. ' How soon can you get to Dayton from Troy, and back? So was the question asked by Mr. Klaes and Bucky Slife Friday gefore the Troy game. Reason? It seems that in the scramble to get to Troy, live football jerseys were left behind. Result? Five football players appeared on the field a few minutes late. Mr. Klaes revealed later that they made the trip in 55 minutes. Love ls like and onion You taste it with delight 1' And when its gone you wonder L What ever made you bite? UJHIJZIT ? Ah! What do we see here? Some- one's telling surmner secrets. Do you know what they're saying and who they are? It's Mr. and Miss Whozit., Miss Whozit is a member of the Senior class, the Y-Teens, the B. A. Club and one of the eight can-can girls. She tops the scales at 115 and is 5 ft. 3 in. tall, with green eyes, brown hair, and a freckly complexion. She may be found in room 120 between 8:15 and 8:55 Cmaybel. If you happen to see Janice Jackson or Sharon Nun- nery, you'll more and likely see Miss Whozit. She has no definite plans af- ter graduation. The Senior class claims our Mr. Whozit. He plays end on the football team, guard on the basketball team, and is a member of the golf team. Mr. Whozit stands at 5 ft. 10172 in. weighs 155 pounds, with a brown burr haircut, and freckly complexion. Howie Miller, and John Guffey are usually seen with Mr. Whozit. His home room is 120. Csame as Miss Whozit'sJ. After graduation he plans to attend Ohio University and major in educa- tion. ' Do you know who the Whozits are? Hex-e's a clue: notice the ring on Miss Whozit's hand. If you don't know now, look in the ads. a P0'lLlGll'l' on E lllll BY ALENE LAMBERT ORPHA MARIE WILLIAMS-Ever hear of unusual hobbies? Well, 'Orf has topped them all with hers. It is trying to become a laugh a minute. Orf was born on July 17, 1936 in Miamisburg, Ohio, but about a year later moved to Dayton. Now she lives at 1214 Lima Place and her tele- phone number is MI 3559. Being an active member of the Y- Teen club, of which she was presi- dent in her junior year, she is treas- urer of the Student Council and secretary-treasurer of the Honor Society. Happiest moment in Orpha's life was when her mother first told her she no longer had to wear leggings. Then, too, she was real happy when she was chosen to be one of the eight varsity cheerleaders. ORPHA Wolfe Studio Most embarrassing moment in her life was when she had to tell a waiter in a Chinese restaurant she didn't care for rice. Hailing from Webster, when Orf first entered the halls of Kiser, her thoughts were of being a big girl now. KEITH ALLEN BANKE- Prexy. That seems to be the favorite and ideal name for Keith as he is president of the Sen- ior Class, All-City Dance Council, Hi-Y, and the District Youth Organization including Dayton, Springfield, and Wilmington areas. Keith is also a member of the Honor Society and plays quarterback on the football team. In his freshman year he was elected most outstanding freshman and in his sophomore year was given the Sons of the American Revolution award. When asked what the happiest moment in his life, Keith blushed, then said being re-elected president of KEITH Wolfe Studio the class. Keith is 5 feet 71,6 inches tall with brown hair and brown eyes. He claims 2249 Valley Pike as his home and can be reached by dialing AD 8396. For his hobby Keith watches Don Thies pick tomatoes. Hailing from Mad River township, Keith thought the halls of Kiser were big along with having the unusual feeling most freshmen have. , Keith's most embarrassing experience was playing THE love scene in the Junior class play. Along with playing football, Keith finds track rating high in sports. He also has played basketball for the Central Christian Baptist Church. His future plans are to attend college, but he is uncertain which he will choose. . y In 1952 Keith was crowned king of the All-City Dance. 1 ' , 1
