Last week a poll taken at Kiser revealed that Kiser boys and girls did not agree on the question of voting for 18-year-olds. Boys favored the question by a slight .margin of 49 to 46, but thexgirls- proved more conservative, and voted no, by a 59 to 49 count. Given to Juniors and Seniors only, the poll was one of severaljtaken by Scholastic Magazines, Institute of- Student Opinion. Another question asked the causes for juvenile delinquency. Boys listed poor or unhappy home conditionsg not enough discipline by parents, and lack of community youth centers, as the three major causes. Girls blamed the latter plus: lack of religious training in Church and Sunday schools, and not enough discipline by parents. H When asked what reasons affected their choices of occupations, 59 of 125 boys chose opportunity for advance- ment as the number one reason. Seventy girls out of 124 agreed with the boys, and chose the same reason. Girls believe ten or 15 cents is a fair profit on the dollar for a busi- ness to make. In this same question boys agreed ten cents was fair enough. In another poll Kiser High School Seniors agreed with other studertts in the United States, on every point in a poll on military training taken re- cently. This was proven when the results of the nation-wide survey were computed with those of Kiseris. Asked if they favored compulsory military training, Kiser Seniors an- swered yes, in accordance with the nation-wide vote, which was 66 per, cent in favor. Plans for a lottery-type drafting program, were rejected by Kiser stu- dents as well as other students in the nation. On the question of a plan for six months' training and seven and one-half years ready reserve, 52 per cent of 'the nation's students disap- proved of such a plan. Kiser, being no exception vetoed it by a 37 to 24 vote. Another question the poll asked was whether girls should prepare for careers other than homemakingf Only three dissenting votes were registered here at Kiser on this question, while 94 students favored it. As compared with the nation, Kiser's vote was -nearly the same for 80 per cent of the students polled, voted yes on this question. l If she's wearing Forma Send Flowers A .Consult your local florist for special suggestions 4' MIAMI.

While walking to work with Barbara Bates recently and pass- ing Rike's window, she thought that it was odd for a mannequin to be sitting and especially to be wearing glasses. Then the woman blinked her eyes and moved only for them to find out it wasn't a dummy but the display director at the store. Imagine, if you can, how they felt! She is president of All-City Dance Council, secretary of Y-Teens, a member of K.G.S. Sorority, B.A. Club, and the Carrousel Teen Club.

Ever been depressed, angry, or had that down-and-out feeling and then been met by a friend who smiled? Suddenly all worries vanish' and you realize what a wonderful world you're in. Yes, a captivating smile, automatic and sincere, is something which can never be bought or borrowed, only given. You've probably all seen Joe. He's the fellow who walks down the hall, his face bowed with a scowl on it. Then, all of a sudden a radiant smile breaks out on his face. It reminds you of the sun after being hid be- hind a cloud, comes streaming down to earth. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the sun were shining all the time? But what about a forced grin? A mechanical grin fools no one. A smile, coming from within is something to be cherished. It is priceless. Look at' the most popular people. Their ability to see something good or humorous in the most depressing situations has helped to bring their popularity. Your facial expression reveals your personality. A pleasant smile will put you ahead in business, too. A scowling person may be a genius in math or science but he will not get as far or advance as fast as the person with average intelligence who is cheerful. A song writer once said, When you're smiling the whole world smiles with you! Are you going to let it smile with YOU? LQ.l.!..Q.?J.Ql..? About this time every year Seniors start thinking about graduation and here the Whozits are practicing march'ng. Letls see who these anxious kids are. Miss Whozit is a Senior and is 5 ft., 3 in. tall. Born in Dayton, Ohio, October 27, 1935, with brown hair and brown eyes, she resides at 655 Keo- wee Street. This 113 pound lass can most likely be seen with Orpha Williams, Ann Roberts, and Judy Tootle. Mr. Whozit also was born in Day- ton, Ohio, July 16, 1936, with brown hair and blue eyes. He stands at 5 ft., 8 in. tall and tips the scales at 130. He resides at 528 Deeds Avenue and answers the ringing of the tele- phone number FU 9705. Some of his many friends are: Jim Reger, Duane Hooker, Bill Detter, and Chad Fogle. If I haven't given you enough clues and you can't tell by the picture who the Whozits are, you will have to look in the ads to find out.

During Ihis lapse of time I have noticed my name on the comic pages, in movies, and just a few days ago a girl came in the library asking questions and looking up my name. Toby Orr must have heard about the empty cell next to mine. Seems while doing his duty as staff pho- tographer he was forced to sit in the trunk of Martha Spitzig's car. There is ailaw that goes something like this, No body either living or dead may be carried in the trunk of a car. During the Easter vacation I spent an enjoyable week watching my favorite farmer plow his field and sow it with corn. Enclosed is the picture of myself that I promised you. Try not to get mad because I will have my picture in the next issue with no tricks at- tached. The news has finally come from my parole board. Yes, on May 27, the date that the Senior edition comes out, I will be a free person. The board voted 20 to 0 in my favor. Have you ever thrilled to a ride on a roller coaster?

Yes, the Kiser eighth grade Y-Teen club has cer- tainly gotten off to a smooth start this year. This is the first year for an eighth grade Y-Teen club at Kiser. This club, though small, has prob- ably had the most varied projects and activities of any Kiser Y-Teen club. Heading their list of activities is a visit they made to the Old Widows Home on Valentine's day. Members had a full program planned and made the refreshments they served there. Each member was also responsible for making a valentine and a hand- kerchief which they presented to the women. Oxther activities included a visit to the Federal Court, where they learned how a jury is questioned and picked, and a baby-sitting class at which a visiting nurse spoke and used a live baby in her demonstra- tion. , Plans for the club were made dur- ing the summer when Miss Willing- ham, Montgomery County Y-Teen director, asked Mrs. Charles Wom- bold if she would help start an eighth grade club and act as its advisor. Mrs. Wombold agreed and has been working with the girls all year, , A program has recently been started to interest coming Kiser eighth grade girls in the club. Plans Roosevelt Is Scene Of Final Scholarship Tests Roosevelt High School will be the scene of the Final District State Scholarship Tests, Saturday, May lst. Participants from Kiser, will be in division I which allows three students to each subject. There will be only one test to each student.
