Juniors ig AZT? bs D ' Q f RQ .- . Last September the class of 1953 entered the halls of KHS with confidence. They were old veterans at this sort of thing--not quite upper- classmen yet, but certainly not underclassmen, either. Dick Uhlmann was chosen as commander for the year, to be assisted by Ray Rambo as vice- president and Betty Kennelly as secretary-treas urer. Representing the juniors on the Student Council were Louise Shreves and Jim Ramp. Carol Ann Ferris was elected by the student body to be vice-president of the Student Council. She will automatically become president of that organ- ization next year. Harold Howarter and Joann Edwards were selected as junior editors of the newspaper and yearbook, respectively. Mrs. Betty Yemm and Mr. William Farr provided the fac- ulty's guiding hand. In October Mary Woolsey was chosen as the class's candidate for the Homecoming crown. Mary, who was the second maid of honor, was Advisers, VV. Farr, B. Yemm, President, D. Uhlmanng Vice-President, R. Rambog Secretary-Treasurer, B. Ken- nelly. escorted by jim Ramp, with Louise Shreves as her attendant. The juniors were well represented in each of the four main sports this year. At least ten varsity letters were earned by junior athletes. From the quality of their play this year, the majority of these boys can be expected to turn in outstanding performances as seniors. Two of the cheerleaders, Betty Martin and Carol Ann Ferris, were also from the junior class. To raise money for various activities in which the class was interested, they had charge of several football and basketball concessions. In Decem- ber the class play, Our Miss Brooks, was produced under the direction of Miss Wilma Hasemeyer. It proved to be a success from the standpoint of finance as well as entertainment. Then May 16 was the night of the long-to-be- remembered junior-senior prom, which was held at the Galesburg Club. Class Day came soon after the prom and brought to a close their third successful year at KHS. Barbara Allen Lelia Asbury joan Baker J I ii ji s 5 f f -s 23
