It sounds easy the way Miss Haney explains it, but to work these geometry problems is a different matter-so think Lucille Inselman, Luella Schaer. Herbert Engel and Phyllis Swanson. It may be useful in such fields as interior decorating, designing or air navigation. Just think, girls, what good husbands these fellows will make after Mr. Alpers finishes teaching them how to make cedar chests, tables, cupboards, and anything else you want made. Here Ray Morlok. William Koopman, Wilferd Gieseke, and Edward Selzer watch as Mr. Alpers and Lester Mueller work on the Variety saw. No, no, the nail, not your finger. Mr. Benton cautions Jawain Adams who pounds industriously at one end of a farm building. Gerald Schmidt and Wayne Gal- ley watch closely while Melvin Ewa-rt and his hammer pose for the birdie. lt looks as though the village black- smith will be out of business with the Ag department teaching the junior and sen- ior boys to weld. Here we see Lavern Wilke, Leland Houser, Fred Coffey. and Gerald Janicek watch Eldon Martcnsun welding a yoke. 1 . 1 V No one seems to be very sick.

Lorraine Sturek. however, proves the old saying that Prac- tice makes perfect. Now Albin, you ought to know the answer to that. You're sitting in a high- priced seat, says Mr. Baruth as he helps Albin Koziol with his work. Felix Zoucha, Ruby Mohr, Morris Raymond, and Mar- guerite Alliss seem to be getting their bookkeeping without any help. Many upperclassmen have become good book- keepers under P.'s watchful eye. You can't loaf on the job and get 80 words a minute as Margaret Wilke. Norma Ernst, Leona Ryba, and Betty Lou Arm- strong well know. These girls, hoping to beat the seniors, are busily taking down shorthand from Miss Craig's dictation. Lf' J . Bud Babka. Marie Anderson. Betty Lou Rohner. Rusell Aerni. and Bobbie Lou Kennedy take Miss Crue seriously when she says Hay que estudiarf' and concen- trate on their Spanish lesson. Who knows. the Good Neighbor Policy may someday welcome some of these upperclassmen now studying Spanish.

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY As we ascended the gangplanks of Kramer High in '41 we were entering an adventurous Education for Lifef' The officers who guided us for the first year were Jack Cain, president: Doris Fricke, vice-president: and Marie Anderson, secretary-treasurer. In our second year we were better acquainted with high school life and were faithfully lead by president, Errol Tredwayg vice- president. John Brock: and secretary-treasurer, Nan Bernstein. This third year was filled with activities which required hours of work. but for every Junior a lot of fun. The Prom for the Seniors and the Sport Rally will be long remembered. The officers who so efficiently took the responsiblities for these activities were Bob Rodehorst. president: Clarence Gates, vice president: Alyce Van Berg. Secretary: and Dan Gloor. treasurer. We think our three years have been quite successful and al- ready we look forward to our fourth. 118. 3...

GIRL RESERVES Highlights and fun for the Girl Reserves during the past year were the Heart Sister Ban- quet. the intallation service, and the children's Christmas party. The club enjoyed a successful year under the guidance of Gloria Proskovec. first semes- ter president, and Lois Flesncr, second semester president and their board members. Also figur- ing in the success were the mothers council, Mrs. Saba. presidentpassisted by the faculty sponsors, Miss Colwell and Miss Moore. As a new feature this year, the girls had group meetings with the council members. 0 f I SHOP FOREMEN If you can imagine the Christmas program, the oper- etta. and the senior class play being presented without any stage settings, you can get a fair idea of what K. H. S. would be like without the stage crew. This group got things set for many an S. A. A. program. and put the bleach- ers up for the band concerts. Truly. these hard working fellows deserve a lot of credit. R. Johansen, W. Bucklin, N. Hoge, Mr. Alpers, L. Cattau, D. Smith, R. Boss, B. Rodehorst, O. Maurer. ..33..

Fri- lt-- WIG AND MASK After the three winners of the local dc- clamatory contest had been selected, they went to Omaha for the district contest the latter part of February. All returned home with super- iors. The Wig and Mask sponsored a Dramatic Festival April 30. At this tea which was open to the public. several dramatic selections were given. The highlight of the club meetings came when the play, Green Pastures, was reviewed. Having takcn at least one year of dramatic training any student is then eligible to join. President Delight Walker had the lead in the play of the year and her supporting cast con- sisted of Vice-President. Charlotte Hockenber- ger, Secretary, Doris Fricke and Treasurer, Helen Drumm.

During the football season the whole band displayed their marching talents during the halftime of all home games. While playing marches, they went into unique formations suitable for the occasion. The presence of the pep band at home-town basketball games helped enthusiasm to soar. Despite traveling difficulties this group cheered their team to a victory on Albion's court. They proved that they are able to present the classic along with the marches, when they presented two concerts during the year. Directed by Mr. Kagay, who replaced Mr. Anderson, con- certs were given in February and May. The school was represented at the District Music Contest in Fremont April 14 by the trumpet trio: Dean Bushnell, Charles Jeldon, and Robert Muellerg and the clarinet quartet: Leonard Iwanski, Robert Taylor, Reinhart Gloor and Sylvia Stevens. Rein- hart Gloor and Robert Taylor were also entered in the clarinet solo division. The band elected Reinhart Gloor as president, Pat Hcynen as vice-president, Gloria Proskovec as secretary-treasurer, Robert Taylor and Kenny Reif as librarians, Bob Schultz and Jim Brand- fas as quartermasters, Jack Cain and Leonard Iwanski as sergeants- at-arms. -.38-. x 0 N n , .

The Chimes of Normandy . which was presented by the choir March 30-31, found its setting in the French peasant community of Corneville. As the eur- tain opens. the servants have come to the hiring fair seeking work. but a battle soon threatens between the girls and Serpolette tLeatrice Ewertl. however. the Bailli tAmos Wolfl arrives just in time to preserve order. Next we meet Grenicheux tReinhart Gloorl who claims that he rescued Germaine fHelcn Nelsonl from drowning. and that she promised to marry him. However, Germaine's miserly guardian. old Gaspard tBernard Nelsonl has planned for her to wed the Bailli. Enter Henri de Corneville CDon Brownl who forms a party of men to search a haunted old chateau. Grenicheux. hidden in armor. discov- ers that Gaspard has been doing the haunting to frighten the village folk away from his stolen treasure. After recovering his treasure. Sir Henri tells that it was he who had saved Germaine's life. Gaspard reveals that Germaine is the Machioness of Lucenay, and the story draws to a close with a double wedding impending be- tween Henri and Germaine. and Grenicheux and Serpolette. The operetta was under the direction of Mr. Henry Anderson. vocal instructor, and Miss Phyllis Moore. dramatics instructor. HSIXTEEN IN AUGUST Sixteen In August . one of the ever- popular teen-age comedies with a new slant. was presented by the senior class May 11-12. The play revolves around Gusty Goodrich fMartita Howardl and adolescent girl dom- ineered by an old-fashioned father fDon Brown! and a scholarly boy friend, Arthur Petersen tBob Ridenourl. The play was directed by Miss Phyllis Moore. As a punishment for smashing her father's car Gusty. who will be 'tsixteen in August , has been confined to her home for the summer va- cation. To help her father. Gusty and Arthur try to restore the health of a patient, Carol Dean tJean Gassl. They try various ways of earning money. all of which Dr. Goodrich dis- approves. The climax of the play comes at the bene- fit dance when Carol's selfishness leads to real trouble. She convinces Gusty that a lucky ring will restore her health and make dashing Duke Weatherby tJim Richb concentrate his attentions on Carol instead of sophisticated Cynthia Thornton tSharon Haleyb. Trying to get the ring Gusty and Carol have an accident which results in a great deal of worry for all involved. Carol suddenly realizes how swell Gusty has been and decides that she can get well by herself now. Gusty's father also de- cides that his daughter is really admirable. Other members of the cast included: Miss James tGeraldine Blaserl. Asia May fPat Hey- nenl. Lil Stone fBarbara Hockenbergerl, Emily Goodrich tDelight Walkerh.
