Z Il X I Q E M X :NZ W ' 'f1,6lau,Ji111fn1u1, Ninety-four freshmen entered L. C. C. H. S. in September l945. The first class meeting was the scene of the election of Don Armstrong, Pres- ident, Max Riepe, Vice-President, Martha Bennett, Secretary, Helen Ann Norris, Treasurer, Tommy Ter- hune and Jean Ann Campbell, Stu- dent Council Representatives, Ida Jo Armstrong and Paul Hunt, Cheer Leaders. All of the members of this Freshman Class worked together in the interests of the school and for the school. Perhaps the highlight of their social calendar was the weiner roast held at the Oswego Park in the spring. Then, in the fall of '45 our num- ber had decreased to eighty-three. We elected Dale Tanner, President, Max Riepe, Vice-President, Barbara Brader, Secretary-Treasurer, Ida Jo Armstrong, Student Council Repre- sentative, Billie Jo Pollock and Leo Parlett, Cheer Leaders. Our social event of the year was a Line Party at Parsons. As our final assembly program we presented a one-act play Sparkin , under the direction of Mr. Hutchinson and Miss New- comb. Our class sponsors were Joe Nelson, Chairman, William Hutch- inson, Helen Kriegsman, and Eliza- beth Newcomb. ln the Junior year the class elect- ed the following officers: Jack Moon, President, Charlene Bush, Vice-President, Evelyne Froebe, Sec- retary, Helen Ann Norris, Treasur- er, Don Armstrong, Reporter, Ida Jo 6 Armstrong and Junior Polk, Cheer- leaders, Mary Hartwell, Student Council Representative. The high- light of the year was the presenta- tion of the play Here Comes Charlie, directed by lvan Thompson and Juanita Billington. In order to raise funds for the Junior-Senior banquet, the Junior Class sold mag- azines. On April 26, the class en- tertained the Senior Class at the An- nual Junior-Senior Banquet held in the new gymnasiu-m. The theme of the Banquet was A Dude Ranch . Junior sponsors were Miss Thomas, Mr. Thompson, Miss Billington, and Mr. Shell. ln the fall of i947 we at last reached our goal. We now hold the title of Dignified Seniors . Ninety- one seniors enrolled at the beginning of the year, sixty-one of the original freshmen were still in the class, and twenty-nine joined us from different schools. At the first class meeting of the year Arlene Blevins was elect- ed president, Mignon Smith, Vice- President, Richard Graue, Secretary, Arlene Zook, Treasurer, Margaret Ferrell and Max Riepe, Cheerlead- ers, Richard Hucke, Sergeant-at- arms, Cliff-ord. Landrith, Lois Hoob- ler, Student Council Representatives. The Seniors elected Helen Ann Nor- ris and Richard Graue as Co-Editors for the annual. The outstanding event of the year will be the Senior Play to be given in April. The chosen class motto is With the ropes of the past, we ring the bells of the future. nl tl DON ARMSTRONG Altamont Major: PRINTING Boxing Club '46-'48g Hi-Y '45: UL' Club '46-'48 g Student Council '48 : ' Band '45-'48 5 Football, Basketball, Track '45-'48, Class President '45- Annual Staff '48, CHARLES ADAMSON Coffeyville Major: MECHANICS Boxing Club '45-'47: F.F.A.

At the end of the first nine weeks twenty members of the class were included on the honor roll. The class is also well represented in athletics and the music department. ln September, I947, there gathered in C. C. H. S. some fifty-four girls and forty-five boys, distinguished-more or less-for beauty, wit and brains. These Sophomores chose the following officers: President ................................

Martin Davis Student Council Representative ............... Terry Wolfe Cheer Leaders ......... Kenneth Lasater and Colene Williams Q The sponsors are Mr. Hutchinson, Mr. Zahn, Miss Norma Jean Peterson, and Miss Newcomb. The social whirl of the year started off most appropriately with a roller skating party at Parsons early in November. Perhaps the most interesting class meeting featured a film- Wild Life in North America. For their assembly program the Sophomores secured Mr. R. L. Dunstan, a forest ranger, who described the abilities and training essential to such work. The following Sophomores made no grade below B during the first nine weeks of school: Dolores Adams, Delores Coots, Lois Frederick, Mary Jones, Fred Johnson, Shirley Johnston Vesta Jo Moore, Jane Roberts, Ora Mae Thompson, Ruth Ellen Tullis, John Young. The Sophomores are making a name for themselves, which, they hope, is not too bad. But the rest of the acts of the Class of l95O, and all their might in athletics and in the class room-lo, they are veiled by the inscrutable future. The deed they intend to do is great, but what they do not know as yet.

The class sopnsors are Miss Edith Witham, Miss Elsie Jarrell, Mr. Roy Lucas, and Mr. Chester Crosetto. The varied talents of the freshman class were evident in their first chapel program when a group of the students appeared in musical numbers and readings. Later in December four members of the freshman class, Louise Davidson, Esther Quathamer, Leta Hughes, and Lurena Martinie, played in Miss Witham's student piano recital. The freshmen are active in all musical organizations, in sports and other activities about the school.

Since that time, study has continually been made to determine the most needed lines of agricultural instruction. ln 1937, the vocational agriculture course of study was adopted, that the work might be more applicable to the particular agricultural problems and situ- ations into which the boys would undertake after leaving this school. The department course of study now is designed to fit the boy to be- come a farm manager in his own right. The aim is to give the boy a great deal of practical work along with the theoretical, so that he will know how to use his agricultural training after he has finished high school and become a successful far-mer. Each boy is required not only to take part in a class and group project, but also to carry on an individual project of his own on his home farm. This year eighty-five boys are enrolled in the V-ocational Agriculture Department, which offers four years study in the course. As a part of the course the boy develops a farming program. The first year a feed crop is usually recommended so that later on livestock may become a permanent part of his program. Through the farming program, each boy should gain -much practical knowledge and experience' and be in a position to establish his own farm upon graduation from high school. Class projects, such as fatten- ing hogs and cattle, raising spring lambs and pigs, add to the practical value of the course. ' 1401 ..i...A,,, ,,L4......,,.,., L e., ..,. A Unicatzbnal The studentis individual farming program is expanded each year so that when he graduates fnom high school, he may begin farming. lf farm- ing is not advisable or wanted by the student, he may convert his livestock, crop, or other assets into cash to use for college expenses or other fields of endeavor. Thus, vocational agriculture helps a boy t-o accumulate financial backing of his own while studying in high school. . The class work is divided between the study of agriculture under the direction of Edward B. Zahn, and the farm shop work directed by Jack Shell. The problems which come up in a boy's farming program form the basis of the study of agriculture, therefore, the program of farm shop work is a vital part of his study. The vocational agriculture shop is made to acquaint the students with various tools and kinds of equipment that every farmer should own, and to givfe him experience in their use as well as to teach him how to care for them properly. Many of the more simple types ot hand tools are made for the home farm shops. The shop is in conjunction with the mechanics depart- ment, thus making the tools and machinery of both shops more accessible to the boys. Experience in the shop includes beginning farm wood work, sheet metal work, welding lboth gas and electricl , general farm machinery repair, reconditioning of farm tools, wood turning, beginning forge work, painting, scariting and cleaning of grains, etc. l4ll phwifat gfameam, GIRLS' GYM Instructors MR. ROY LUCAS MISS HELEN THOMAS The State Board of Education of Kansas recently ruled that all high school students graduating in i949 and thereafter are required to take one year of physical education, Last year two classes were organized. Because of the increase in the number of students taking physical education this year, two more classes were -opened, making a total of four physical educa- tion classes. Some of the objectives of the physical education program are: lal the development of skills in gymnastics, rythmics, and athlete activities, lbl the development of useful and desirable skills in activities suitable for use during leisure time, lcl the development of leadership by having each student, within the limits of his ability, assume actual responsibility for cer- tain activities under careful supervision, ldl the development of general physical strength and vigor. These objectives are attained through participation in various types of physical exercise such as ga-mes, calisthentics, tumbling, relays, basket- ball, softball, tennis, volleyball, horseshoes, and other athletic activities. BOYS' GYM l42 I I .1 SHOP MATH ALGEBRA Instructors - CHESTER CROSETTO DONALD VAN ORSDALL The Mathematics Department, offering five years of mathematics, strives to meet the needs of every student. Special c-ourses are given to help students better understand and master principles in their chosen fields. Those who wish to receive a trade school diploma take Algebra, Gen- eral Trade Mathematics, Geometry, General Shop MathemaHcs and Ad- vanced Shop Mathematics, with a semester of Solid Geometry recommended. Advanced Algebra and Trigonometry are offered for graduate students and others desiring or requiring them. Should a student master the advanced courses offered in high school, he may, through special arrangement with the instructor, continue his work in mathematics by taking college Algebra or Analytic Geometry. l43l fn OFFICE MACHINES Twvwon-1 Z BOOKKEEPING Instructors HELEN THOMAS RUTH MORGAN All normal persons in the conduct of their personal, social, and occu- pational affairs have a daily need for a knowledge of basic business and economic principles. The Commerce Department of LCCHS is striving to prepare its students to earn their living by the practical application of their knowledge in business subjects, whether it be as bookkeeper, stenographer, typist, secretary, or in any other capacity requiring skill in these subjects. 2. ' l44l Ko TYPI NG - The preliminary studies, general business training, penmanship and spelling, and business arith-metic are given in the freshman and sophomore years. The junior and senior year provides typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, stenography, economics, business law, and office machines. The Commerce Department awards trade school diplomas in business administration and in commerce. The students in stenography are taught to write and transcribe short- hand, to type, and to recognize the qualifications of an efficient secretary. The stenographers do outside work for other departments of the school, and some of the girls work as personal stenographers for the teachers. During the year students are often given oportunities to work in some business establishments, thus giving them some real business experience preceding an application for work. , A student who completes the commercial course in the school should be able to hold a good position in the business world. Many students who have graduated from LCCHS ore now holding responsible positions in many parts of the United States. l45l fnqlzlah, CLASSROOM Instructors RUBY KAY GROW, NELL ANN PETERSON, English and Speech English FRANK B. BORGNA, Journalism LCCHS offers five units of English to enable each student to acquire those particular skills and abilities for the work or vocation that he chooses. English l and 2 for freshman and English 3 and 4 for sophomores are courses designed to give the students comprehensive drill in the fundamen- tals of English: grammar, punctuation, spelling, sentence structure, and vocabulary. The study of- literature is a part of each course. Through the study of literary characters and situations the pupils gain insight into human nature which helps him to develop a sympathetic understanding of people with whom he must live and work. Practical English, a course for juniors and seniors is required for all trade school diplomas. This course includes drill in grammar, sentence writing, practice in parliamentary procedure, appreciation of the organiza- tion and the material of newspapers, study of vocations, theme writing, and business letters. English, a course in A-merican literature for juniors and seniors is offered for students who plan to go to college. V Journalism is also a course offered for juniors and seniors. The mem- bers of this class compose the staff of The Labetta , the weekly school paper. l46l cfibfwm WILLIAM HUTCHINSON, Librarian lt has been said that it is the function of the school library to provide C1 desirable and well-balanced collection of books fitted to sch-ool use. This means that there are at least two objectives which the school library must attempt to gain. First, its book collection should aid the student in cultivat- ing o taste for good reading. The student who reads good books, that is, those which have emotional, ethical, and intellectual values, gains for him- self a pleasant, enriching experience of the highest importance. From con- tact with the greatest of minds, the student finds enjoyment, information, understanding, stimulation, and inspiration. Second, the well-balanced school library should provide not only good books for recreational reading, but it should provide materials for inde- pendent study and research for both pupils and faculty. While obviously the value of a library depends upon the character, not the number, of the books therein, the following figures may be of interest in showing the size of the LCCHS libraryg there are 7,200 books, 9,000 pamphlets, 3,450 unbound magazines, and 60 current periodicals, in addition to collections of maps, pictures, and other materials. Each book is catalogued by author, subject, and title, according to the Dewey Decimal system of classification, so that material -may be found easily. i-iv 1 Unraf1bnaL Jia ' HOIVIENURSING Instructors ELSIE JARRELL, JUANITA BILLINGTON, Foods Clothing MRS. WILHELMINA WILBERSHIDE, School Nurse The Smith-Hughes Vocational Homemaking Department has long been a part of the LCCHS curriculum. Here, girls have an opportunity to gain basic training for home living. ' This year one hundred girls are enrolled in the four year course which the department offers. Units of work are the construction and care of clothing, meal planning, preparation, and service, home furnishing and decoration, family relationship, home management, home hygiene and care of the sick, etiquette and grooming. The clothing department is well-equipped with thirteen machines, both electric and treadle type, electric irons and steam iron, built in ironing boards, triple mirror, cutting boards, individual lockers, maple tables and chairs, materials for demonstration purposes in the study of color, fibers, grooming, and general clothing principles. The foods laboratory is divided into six unit kitchens each with its own serving center equipped with maple dinette sets. Each unit is arranged as near like a home kitchen as possible. Here the girls plan, prepare, and serve complete meals and arrange and care for all furnishings and equip- ment. The department also has a dining room and all necessary china, crystal, silver, and linen for serving school and community groups. Other units of work offered are budgeting, time and money management, laun- dering, the relation of food and health, and infant feeding and care. The Home Nursing Department known to the students as the First Aid Room is a part of the Vocational Homemaking Course. Under the direction of Mrs. Wilhelmina Wilbershide RN. The girls learn practical home nursing principles. The department is for the students and their wel- fare. First aid service is available to all students and faculty in the school. lt includes bed space for three people and equipment to meet all first aid emergencies. All second year homemaking girls are required to complete the course in home nursing outlined by the National Red Cross. l48l ,,, W ip., Unrafzbnal Zio ' H --f-. - .f1,vL.gQg,,fs11 .zo '1 , -, U. i ,V 'W' ,- f 'fp 'sf '?L'7'fg1m' K , y 'QW' ,A ? , 'fry F, A S i ' ' V Q I ., by ' FOODS Each girl in vocational homemaking must complete two home projects a year.

L. WILBERSHIDE HARRY E. ZOOK Over a thousand students have graduated from the mechanics depart- ment since it was organized 27 years ago. A large part of these graduates are located within a radius of IOO miles of Altamont. However, L. C. C. H. S. graduates are to be found in every part of the United States. Many of the farmers in this community are former students of the Mechanics department. They are outspoken in their praise for this type of work. They use this training in the everyday operation and repair of their farming equipment. ' The mechanics department offers two years of general training in the fields of auto mechanics, machine shop practice, welding, and blacksmith- ing. ln addition specialization may be carried on by the pupil in specific trades during a third or fourth year of work. ISOI 977zchan1lc4, MACHINE SHOP A drafting department whose work is closely correlated with the shop is maintained in order that the student may have technical training in blue-print reading and basic project design. Many of the pieces to be made in the shop are designed and blueprinted in the drafting class. The majority of boys enroll in related mathematics and science classes in order t-o receive a well rounded training for shop work. This type of training has proven to be very successful in training boys for industrial jobs. A large per cent of the boys advance to supervisory positions in a short time.

AUTO MECHANICS l 521 ,.,. ku. CHEMISTRY Instructor HARRY HAU RY The Science Department is located in the semi-basement of the new building. The spacious quarters are comprised of two large rooms: one, a general class room, equipped with twenty-four ltwo student tablesl which are also used for experimental purposes, and the other room, a chemistry and physics laboratory. Adjoining these rooms are a dark room, a chemistry stock room, a physics storage room and several radio test rooms, all are easily accessible from the two main rooms. The pieces of apparatus and equipment are adequate in m-ost respects. New laboratory tables of modern design will be added just as soon as mater- ial can be obtained at reasonable prices. Some very valuable and helpful supplies and laboratory equipment has been received from government sur- plus. The subjects that are taught this year are: General Science, Botany, Chemistry, Physics, and Radio. There will be two recipients of a trade school diploma in Radio this spring. The requirements for this diploma are three years -of Radio in addition to some prerequisites as mathe-matics, shop, mechanical drawing, and science. This year, there are about one hundred and seventy-tive students en- rolled in the various science classes. From year to year there is a slight variation in this number. Text book work and regular class room discussion is enlarged upon by means of experimentation, projects, field trips, visual aids, etc. By way of example, some of the Biology students are learning how to catch, identify, and mount the skins of the rodents which 'make up some of the chief pests on the farm. Two or three students are learning the science and art of taxidermy. l53l ,.,. RADIO PHYSICS In physics we try to correlate the principles with the practices of shop, home, and farm. ln radio the theoretical work is accompanied by actual construction and repair of radios, public address and inter-communication systems, sound movie projectors, etc. The same general objectives hold in the field of chemistry as good a foundation, as possible, is laid for those who intend to continue in that broad field and at the same time, application to daily living is kept in the fore- ground wherever possible. l54l FRAN K BORGNA, Instructor lt is the aim of the Department of Printing to instruct the student in the elementary skills and informations relative to the art of printing. The course is open to any student, boy or girl. Those who want a trade school diploma in printing must complete two credits of work in each of the following subjectsg penmanship and spelling, journalism, practical English, and typingg and six credits in printing, in ad- dition to the general high school requirements for graduation. The department offers instruction and training in hand composition, make-up, presswork, linotype operating and mechanism. A weekly school paper, THE LABETTA, is published in the shop, in addition to the usual job work for the office and departments. During the first year of printing the student is taught only the elementary skills, together with the history and developments of printing to the present day. In his second year he is taught how to set tabular matter and job forms of various typesg how to figure and cut stocks, how to make-ready on the job press, and how to operate and feed power and job presses. The third-year student sets, makes-ready, and cuts stock for any job that comes in the shop. He makes up the school paper, operates the linotype, and is taught linotype mechanism. In journalism, a one-year course open to juniors and seniors only, the class writes and edits all copy for the weekly school paper, THE LABETTA. Published in the interest of the school and students, it does not handle paid advertising. All students subscribe to the paper, and it is mailed to their homes. THE LABETTA is mailed to 600 subscribers weekly. PRINTING JOURNALISIVI 1 0 Y WZMAIL lnstructors NORMA JEAN PETERSON EDITH WITHAM IVAN THOMPSON The Music Department of LCCHS is divided into three major divisions which are piano, instrumental, and vocal. Many students are majoring in music and several have indicated their plans to go on with music or music teaching as a profession. The department has grown this year. The number of band members is larger than the supply of uniforms so several more have been ordered. The number of players in the orchestra has grown. The piano department which has fifteen practice rooms, boasts 86 students taking private lessons. BAND The Grizzly Band of 64 members has made another fine record this year. Membership has grown and thirty-five freshmen have indicated their desire to play in the band by enrolling in beginners classes. Activities of the band have included out of town trips to Cherokee, Erie, lola, Oswego, Parsons, and Pittsburg. Many other invitations were received which could not be accepted due to conflicts with previously scheduled events. The band appeared at each home football game with march maneuvers and appeared as a guest at the Parsons-Coffeyville Junior College game. A picked pep band played at all the Basketball games. At the time of this writing the band is preparing a contest selection with which it is hoped to repeat in obtaining a lst Division rating at the annual Pittsburg Music Festival. Two concerts have been given which consisted of a varied program of interesting and educational selections. ln addition to instrumental players of the band, there were included in the membership six majorettes, two flag bearers, and a drum major. Pat Holmes acted as Drum Major and had the leadership of the band on the field and street. Leland Peterson, cornetist, acted as student director on several occasions. Boys' GLEE CLUB ' 'TWH The Boys Glee Club contained many good voices. Among the public appearances in which they were presented and enjoyed included the Harvest of Harmony concert, the Christmas Assembly program, the Operetta Words and Music, and the annual Minstrel Show pre- sented as a complement to Sth grade graduates in the county. Leland Peterson, Arnold Neil, Kenneth Lasater, and Jack Wilkinson, members of the group, formed a barber shop quartet which was always much enjoyed. l56l y '777uA1k, ORCH ESTRA We are proud to present the LCCHS orchestra which is steadily growing in numbers and quality. The membership now totals forty-five, which makes it one of the largest orchestras in this area. Much music is covered during the year from light classics, modern music, to symphonies. This year the group is working on the First Symphony of Beethoven. Besides their own work in concerts, they contribute to many other activities, such as chapel programs, Little Theatre Orchestra for plays, and for community programs, such as the annual Soil Conservation meeting. From this group also comes out string orchestra and string ensembles which also contribute much to the school and community program. The orchestra made its opening appearance on the fall concert. They also played for the Christmas program. The orchestra made some out of town trips. One was the trip to Pittsburg on February 4 to hear the Kansas City Philharmonic Orchestra. 3 GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Girls' Glee Club, with a membership of thirty-tive has been active this year in con- certs, Christmas program, school programs and in the operetta Words and Music which was presented February 26, by the mixed chorus and glee clubs.

MIXED CHORUS E571 4 STUDIO PIANO STUDENTS EDITH Wm-IAM, instructor The Piano Department of LCCHS is one of the best equipped in the Middle West, it includes a piano studio with two pianos and a victrola-radio console, an office, music room and fifteen sound-proof practice rooms. This year eighty pupils are practicing every day on the school pianos. At the beginning of the school year the Piano Department, with Miss Witham as instructor, had IOO students seeking piano instruction. As only eighty-six periods were available, the balance of the enrollment was placed on the waiting list. Of the number accepted, thirty-five were freshmen, twenty-seven sophomores, sixteen juniors and eight seniors. Each pupil is given one lesson per week and a practice period free of charge. Opportunity is given to participate in ensemble playing. On December 4 a group of twenty piano students were presented in a recital to the largest audience ever to attend a LCCHS piano recital. They were assisted by vocal, violin, and dance numbers. An all ensemble program is planned for the spring recital. MIXED CHORUS The Mixed Chorus has fifty-two members, alternating its meetings with the glee clubs. The chorus made their first appearance in the Harvest of Harmony concert. One of their most outstanding and stirring numbers, the finals of the entire concert, was Waring's Battle Hymn of the Republic, with the accompaniment of two pianos. The group also added much to the Christmas program with their candlelight processional. The chorus took' part in the operetta Words and Music. They participated in the music festival here and the district music festival at Pittsburg. E581 ,guidance COUNSELING RUBY KAY GROW HERMAN F. HARRISON Director of Guidance Principal Guidance is based upon the principle that youth needs help, -only a few of their problems are solved successfully without aid. Critical situa- tions arise in which they need the help of their parents, teachers, or others. This school takes its place omong those to whom the youth turn for c-ounsel and guidance. Faculty members are chosen not only for their thorough preparations in subject matter, successful teaching experience, but also for their interest and ability to w-ark with young people. Each teacher is a part of the guidance staff, spending much time in working with students, counseling, and advising them. The program is coordinated through the office of the director of guidance, Miss Ruby Kay Grow, who, with others of the staff visits in the 'homes of the students and counsels in the interest and planning -of the work for the youth of this school. All of the departments of the school work together in the interests of the young people whom it serves that there may come to each boy and girl attending this school experiences which are rich and vital to growth and development in the building of good citizens. The happiness and develop- ment of the students is the goal of the guidance program. l59fl sawn Kagatwkz, LUNCH LINE MRS. BERTHA ARMSTRONG, Manager Assistants: Mrs. Bertha Bunch, Mrs. Daisy Woolfolk, Mrs. Nellie Neville, Mrs. Julio Oskins, The LCCHS Cafeteria under the management of Mrs. Bertha Armstrong serves on the average of three hundred and fifty meals each noon to students and faculty. The dining room has a seating capacity of one hundred and twelve, which means that it takes practically the entire noon hour to serve the people who eat lunch in the cafeteria. A luncheon consisting of potatoes, vegetables, salad, bread, oleo, milk or fruit juice is served for twenty cents. This is made possible only through careful and economical planning and by the school having a school garden. The Agriculture Department raises and butchers the beef and pork used in the cafe- teria. During the summer the school bought two ten-burner stoves with extra large ovens which help the women in their cooking. Other new equipment has been added during the year. A typical meal requires some 'SO quarts of canned vegetables, l25 pounds of potatoes, 50 pounds of fresh vegetables, 75 pounds of meat, 40 loaves of bread, lO pounds of oleo, 3 bushels of apples or 2 crates of oranges, and l-4 cases of pasteurized milk in half-pint bottles.

This takes the form, some- what, of a contest among the various schools. Outside speakers are occasionally obtained for our meetings. This year we were fortunate to have Mr. Shamel from the Smithsonian Institute give the club a talk. Another highlight in our activities this year was a bus trip for the whole group to the Woolarock Museum in Oklahoma. The interest shown at the museum and the enthusiastic acclamations of the club members will attest for the educational value of this trip, A co-pr-oject for the whole organization is to establish a library of books on scientific subjects for the use of Science Club members. The pur- chase of about fifteen dollars worth of books this year, with money left over in the treasury from the three preceding years, is the nucleus for this col- lection of books. l78l Pm 6'-'16 ...N .

Dorthea Morgan was crowned football queen between halves of the Oswego vs. LCCI-IS game. A dance and reception in honor of all LCCHS graduates was held in the new auditorium after the game. LCC students, faculty, alumni, and the Oswego team were invited. At the conclusion of the basketball season, the Pep Club sponsors a chili supper to honor the basketball team. The main event of the evening is the crowning of the basketball queen. During the basketball season, the club runs a hot dog stand. The profits this year were used to buy sweaters for some of the Junior and Senior members in the club. The club meets every Monday at l l 130 in the new auditorium. At the meetings business matters are discussed and cheers and songs are practiced in preparation for the athletic games. The club is open to any student in school. We have one hundred and fifty-eight members this year. - The cheerleaders deserve a lot of credit for the swell job they have done during the school year 1947-48. The cheerleaders are Dorthea Morgan, Billie Pollock, Shirley Hoobler, and Margaret Speights. l79l A' ill OFFICERS President .............. Tommy Terhune Secretary-Treasurer ..........

During the football season the club discusses football plays and rules. The rest of the year they have boxing, volleyball, softball, and other minor sports. l80l Jia thmmfflulz The Housemothers' Club, an organization of women who house LCCHS students, was organized in 1939 and has been active each year as an important part of the school program. Its members number thirty-four this year. Meetings in the interest of student welfare are called by the president, Mrs Gertrude Doyle, who succeeded Mrs. Fred Holmes, Jr., as the 1947-48 president, or Miss Grow, faculty sponsor. This year with the bus program in effect only 96 students, 38 boys and 58 girls, are roaming in town. Of this number 13 are freshmen, 22 sophomores, 29 juniors, 29 seniors, and 3 past graduates and Gl's. A year ago 150 students roamed in towng in 1945 there nl, Bum, and Qfriomm, were 120.

The seven school buses haul 275 students and trayel 550 miles each day and have been operating effectively and on schedule all this school term. With the exception of three minor mechanical delays, the buses arrive each morning on the parking lot within a three-minute period, between 8:10 and 8:15 o'clock. Total time for each trip is about 1 hour and 20 minutes. The student is on the bus an average of only 30 to 40 minutes per trip. Recently, two members of the Kansas State Highway Patrol were here and reported that our bus-driving record was very good. Competent drivers handle the buses, and they have been getting 100 percent co-operation from the parents. Upon arrival every morning the drivers register the time of arrival and then report to the mechanics any mechanical trouble on their own bus. Mechanical and operation charts are kept an each bus and they are given a mechanical checkup each morning and washed and greased when necessary. Safety is the primary keynote of the local bus system. 1811 aw, EAHPM LECTRSCA AND ENJ V L F Q 0 4 Q V FRF W Sy! ' if , .0 lui.
