Studes Pick Colleges Carelessly Tlrere is much evidence that large numbers of students are enrolled in colleges that are poorly suited to their needs or vocational ambitions. This fact was brought out in a recent issue of the Guidance Newsletter. According to a recent study of 461 Seniors in 12 Pittsburgh high schools who planned to attend a particular college or university, it was found that: Eighty-seven per cent were unfa- miliar with the curricular offering of the college to which they had ap- plied. Forty-three of the graduates had picked a school that offered no training in their chosen vocations. Seventy-two per cent had not in- vestigated their college's academic standing as rated by an accrediting agency. I Finally, only thirty-seven percent had an acceptable understanding of the educational program of the col- lege they planned to attend. Teenagers! t Waulzl You 'f like to Warlr in Raffu . . .

nes J . THE :risen PANTHER FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 19511- LUHDZIT ? Photo by Toby Orr This really looks like folks are get- ting their heads together for a change. Let's see who they are. ' Miss Whozit resides at 283 Air Street and answers to the ringing of telephone number HE 8825. Weighing 118 lbs., she stands 5 ft. 7 in. tall and has light brown hair and blue eyes. Some of her many friends are Janet Lanter and Catherine Fretic. Miss Whozit finds skating interesting. Mr. Whozit lives at 282 Air Street, and one might be able to reach him by dialing HE 4797. He is a little 5 ft. 3 in., 128 pound basketball player for the Eighth grade, and has brown hair and brown eyes. Shock's is where he can be seen with Roger Galloway, Paul Plummer, and Denzil Higgins. Both the Whozits are in the Eighth grade and -went to Webster last year. If there aren't enough facts for you to guess who the Whozits are, look in the ads. Many Support Winnersg Few Get Behind Losers How many of Kiser's basketball games have you attended this win- ter? One, two, five, all of them? It's doubtful if anyone can say they've been to all of the games, but if some- one has, then that person is an ex- ception. 1 . When a team is winning, everyone is all for that team, simply because the majority of the people today al- ways want to be on the winning side. A winning team has people support- ing it who wouldn't ordinarily even be around if the team were losing. Several years ago here at Kiser, we had a winning basketball team, one that hooked together a string of 13 victories without a defeat. Then everyone came to the basketball games. Why? Because we were win- ning. But we are not winning now, and how many of you are going or have gone to the games? A look at the record of the ticket sales will show the number to be few. Losing is no fun, everyone knows that, but just because a team is losing doesn't mean that they still don't need the support of the student body. It's toolate for anything to be done about the attendance at this year's games. This year is over, and the next cage season is a long way off. So, when basketball time rolls around again in December, let's really get out and support the team. Like the of the Brooklyn Dodgers always say, Walt'll.next year. . .A ,. , ii.

CHARLEEN SUGGS-Coming to Kiser in her Freshman year from Allen is this five ft. three in. girl with brown hair and eyes who weighs 108 pounds. Being tapped into the honor society was Charleen's happiest moment. Her biggest disappointment came when she was unable to attend the Junior-Senior Prom since they are always closed. For a hobby she sews and for a pastime her favorite sport is ping pong. The subject she likes best is shorthand. Charleen's pet peeve is people who crack their chewing gum. Born in Amos, Arkansas, Sep- tember 15, 1936, you can now reach her by dialing HE 6057 or by going out to 1409 Valley Street. To make her happy, just play Secret Love by Perry Como and give her french fries and a Country Boy hamburger. Plans after graduation include a secretarial job in a bank or a law office. PAUL FREIER GRIFFY-Brown hair and blue eyes found under a crew cut and on a six ft. one and a half in. boy that weighs 195 pounds, fits this guy to a tee. .Paul was born in Dayton, Ohio, February 7, 1935, and now lives at 4977 Franlou Drive and can be reached by dialing OL 0060. His hobby is coaching the fifth and sixth grade basketball teams. He has had two championship teams, one in the season of 1951-52 and the other one in 1952-53. His happiest moment came when his teams won two championships in a row. Wol!e.Studlo PAUL Wolfe Studio when he found out there was no Santa Claus and his second disappointment came when he did not get an electric train last Christmas. Plans after graduation are to be a toolmaker or go to Wilmington college and take a physical education course. X You can make him happy with ham and sweet pota- toes or by playing Stranger In Paradise and Heart of 'My Heart by the Four Aces. ' ' , His biggest disappointment came 5 ' .f ,J I ilim CeHaneou - BY JOAN BREWER The Y-Teen formal's comin' up- It's when we dance and dine. With Rhythmaire's band to set the pace, Better get that date, I've got mine! I'm sorry Cynthia, I flubbed. If you are wondering what I'm apologizing for, it's because I left Cynthia Buck's name out of the cast list in the Junior Class play story in the last issue of the Panther. Cynthia played the role of Mary Ann, that gal next door. Paging all girls! With the Y-Teen formal coming up, let's - not get behind the eight-ball and miss getting that certain guy you were going to ask. Here are the names or some of Senior girl and boy couples already reserved: Janet Hanes--Jerry Cline Barbara Ryan-Doug Pippin Leota Seale-Curtis Williams Barbara Bates-Joe Balogh Joan Stutz-Jim Reger 'Twas on a rainy, rainy day when Leota Seale and Barbara Bates were trudging their weary ways toward school against a hard rain, when all of a sudden-Boing! One of the springs in Leota's umbrella popped out. Barbara stopped to' pick it up and when she handed it to Leota, she was so dumb-fo1mded she let the um- brella ily out of her hands. Then she and Barbara were seen chasing the umbrella for a block! Nothing like a little excitement for a rainy morning! Sometimes we cheerleaders wonder if we are any good because we hear re- marks pro and com But when the op- posing team throws a wet towel in your face, you know something's rotten 'in Denmark. Here's the pitch. February 13, at the Chaminade-Kiser basketball game this happened. We fthe cheerleadersh had doing a -cheer at time-out and were nmning olf the floor to our bench when one of the Chaniinade players threw a towel in Pauline Tatone's face. We still don't know if it's because they don't like us or if the towel was intended for a teammate. CWe hope it's the latter!! Say kids' here's a real brain-teaser. Got your think- ing-caps on? O.K. Now tell me, why do you strain egg- whites? Lately our home-ec class was pondering this when Ann McLaurin came up with the brainy idea that it was to strain the germs out! Poor kid, she's got it bad. 0 ' A This last poem was written by an eighth grader, Terry -Shank.
