SENIOR HISTORY As the days of our high school career are drawing to a close, we won- der if we have gotten out of high school all that we should have. How- ever, in the near future, this question will be answered, and we hope in our favor. On September 3rd, 1924, seventeen carefree but timid pupils entered the K. H. S. as “green” Freshies. We took up the task of getting an education and soon found that it must be tackled hard. Therefore, we tried faithfully to gain success in school work. As Freshmen will do, we studied hard and in earnest for a while but we soon recovered from our timidity and from then on the teachers had a difficult time with us. In the latter part of September the Freshmen met to elect class offi- cers, and the result of the election was, Thayne Beall, president; Maurice Pumroy, vice-president and Earl Heaton, who later was replaced by Melba Rosenbaum, secretary and treasurer. The basketball season opened with several Freshmen as subs but only Kenneth Perry, James Prevo and Thayne Beall remained with the team. As Freshmen we found the mysterious upperclassmen not to be fooled with, so we learned to leave them alone and avoid them if possible. Having lost some fear of the upperclassmen, we entered the K. H. S. as Sophomores the next September. Upon entering the Assembly we saw Mr. Vaughn, new principal, and new assistant principal, Miss Sheffield talking to each other. The old adage “Good things come in small pack- ages,” held good for small Mr. Vaughn but not for tall Miss Sheffield. Soon after the Assembly was brought to order Mr. Vaughn made him- self and the teachers known. We found Miss Kruell and also Miss Cole- man though now the name was changed to Mrs. Lesinsky. were back. Miss Yost was the music teacher and Miss Sheffield was to take care of the English. Mr. Vaughn, in his characteristic way, started things out in a busi- ness like manner, by having all classes meet to elect officers. He also ap- pointed class sponsors. The Sophomores struck their best piece of luck when Miss Sheffield was appointed their sponsor. The officers elected were the same that held offices in their Freshman year with the exception that Lawrence Knopinski was elected secretary and treasurer. The class still held up their end of the athletics by being represented in basketball by Kenneth Perry, James Prevo and Thayne Beall. Mr. 19 2 8 'W Page sixteen
