plans for the future, since graduation was fast ap- proaching. What a grand time we had staging our class play, May I Come In? its success was over- whelming, hut then we surelv worked hard enough to deserve it. But no douht the greatest moment in our entire high school life came on the evening when our haslcethall team won the 1959 Class B State Championship title. Words cannot descrihe the feeling which arises when your Cougar team has won twenty-nine games. has lost none, and has reached the summit,-the highest title for which it can strive. Now our pride in KAHS has heen rooted even more firmly. There are other things worth remembering, too. Our stock market hoard in P.0.D. was lots of fun, and so was our trip to the courthouse. Our Senior Farewell was a hit more solemn an occasion. for then we hegan to realize what the name really signified. Now all that fun and work is ended. We will never he ahle to return and spend three more vears at KAHS with our classmates and faculty. AH we can do now is rememher the hig and the little things which happened there and hope that other classes will have the same fun and opportunities which we have had as the Class of 1959. 6

Then in our junior year we toured the Hershey Chocolate Plant and the hattlefield at Get- tyshurg where some of us showed our rehel- Iious spirit hy purchasing Confederate Hags. That same year we selected our class colors, hrown and tan, and then ordered our attrac- tive class jackets. Our school rings, the standard gold hand and hlue stone design, also arrived ahout the middle of the year. Of course, our pride in KAHS soared to new heights when our school regained its title as Berks County Basketball Champions hy defeating Vvyomissing in a display of our team,s excellent basketball ahility and determination. Along the more academic line, those of us who had chemistry will never forget those times when we wondered hose experiment would he the next to xplode. Then came the climax,-'we were seniors t last. To us came all the privileges and duties of KAHS seniors. We sat for por- aits, we ordered our calling cards and ommencement invitations, and we made PREFA CE
