In the year 1954 we as seventeen green freshmen, confident of ourselves, entered the Raymond High School. We were dis- appointed in high schoolg for when a slight mistake was made, the upper classmen sneeringly remarked, nThey're just green freshmen.n Memories of initiation surpassed all others. We bore with all the possible grace the abuses and insults of the upper classmen. Cheerfully we scrubbed the steps with tooth- brushes and attired ourselves in tacky clothes, for we rea- lized that initiation would be remembered as fun. The fall of 1955 found the same members with the excep- tion of Verda Salee, Caroline Berblinger, and Irene Gibson. Ethel Fassauer and Earl Pelton, who entered the class at the beginning of the term, and Virginia and Josephine Walters, who entered in November, increased the sophomore enrollment to eighteen. The outstanding events of this year was as fol- lows: the giving of a New Year's Eve party for the entire school, and the defeating of the seniors in the interclass basketball tournament. At the beginning of our junior year we lost three stu- dents--Louise Moore, Josephine Walters, and Virginia Walters-- while gaining only one, Agnes Fournier, who has proved a great asset to our class. Byron Bemis left the class during the first part of the year. Later we presented our junior play, uPhantom Bells,n which was well giveng and on April 29, we were hosts to the senior class and the faculty at a banquet given in the Wiley Tea Room at Hutchinson, Kansas. The next, our senior year, was marked by many outstanding events. After serving three years as class president, Harold Burns was re-elected. Our play, nThat Watkins Girl,n present- ed on April 1, was even a bigger success than our junior play. Several parties were given in honor of the seniors. On our Skip Day, May 3, we visited the following places in Wichita: Cudahy Meat Packing Company, Red Star Flour Kill, Fire Depart- ment, Riverside Park, Stephens' Ice Cream Plant, Wichita Bea- con office, Police Department, and the Wichita Municipal Air- port. Although it was raining when we returned home, all felt that the day was well spent. Now, as the year is drawing to a close, we realize that many of us will drift apart, and we may never be together again. On our faces are smiles, but our hearts are full of tears. --C1333 Histgpian ...J l 1 r JUNIORS Back row: Left to right, Mary King, Virgil Pelton, John Lipe, Arthur Burns, Mr. Jones.

This is the largest enrollment in the history of the school. The faculty, consisting of five, was composed of three teachers new to the system, Mr. Benj. P. Bowman, Princi- palg Miss Maude Harris, an experienced teacher and graduate of Wichita University, and Miss Illcen Ballard, as music teamcr who graduated from Wichita University in 1957. Mr. Benj. P. Bowman started his twelfth year of high school work. He holds an A. B. degree from Baker University and his Master of Sci- ence Degree in Education from Kansas State College. Miss Edel Hoelscher and Mr. W. R. Jones, who have rendered many years of excellent and faithful service to this school and the communi- ty, were ready to begin another year's work. The faithful and efficient custodian, Mr. G. H. McCandless, was on the job as was easy to see by the splendid way in which the building had been repaired and cleaned. Because of the large number of freshmen and sophomore girls wishing to enroll in foods, it was necessary to have two divisions. Among the new equipment secured for this depart- ment was an electric refrigerator, a kerosene table top stove and an electric wall clock.

The course of study offered is well organized and com- plete. If one will examine the course of study printed on an- other page, he will see that ten subjects were offered this year that were not offered last year. Most of the subjects offered in '56 will again be taught next year. By this system of alternation a student in his four years of high school will have as wide a variety of fsubjects from which to select as he Good grades count not only in high school but college or in any line of work, for these times refer to the high school records. It is true also in organizations some- that some students have more ability than others, but it is also true that very few work to their fullest capacity. The school is worling at all times to encourage the students to put forth their best efforts. Each six weeks' honor roll ha conun ed from six to nine names. Students have been provided with the best possible conditions for study. The radio was removedfrom the study hall and placed in the balcony of the auditorium where it could be played during the noon hours and at other times when it did not interfere with school work. We Qhave, therefore, been able to maintain the study hall and library as a quiet place where students could come to read or study not only during school hours but before school, after school, and at noons. A large number of the better students took advan- tage of this opportunity. Classes have met regularly and on time throughout the year with the instructor in charge carry- ing a definite and complete program. Qne of the main objectives of education is to better fit one to meet the problems he will face in later life. One of his big problems is to be able to adapt himself to the ever changing social conditions. Both a sound academic program and a well directed extra curricular program enable him to engage in the activities of the social world. Raymond has as fine a program along this line as that found in schools with a much larger enrollment. This year we carried on the fine organizations that had been started, including a complete athletic program for both boys and girls. Many of the students are now playing tennis on the two up-to-date tennis courts which have been construct- ed. Thc National Honor society, the Local Honor society, the Merit System, the school paper, the one act play festival, class organizations and various musical organizations have all progressed with unusual interest. As there was no religious organization, a Girl Reserves club was organized. This called for a community Y. W. C. A.3 both organizations have met with unusual success and before the middle of the year were able to affiliate with the state organizations. This was quite an ac- complishment in so short a time. The G. R. is new one of the main organizations and about 90 per cent of the high school girls belong. Some 20 women belong to the community Y.W.C.A The classes have had parties and picnics at various times. An all school party was held at the beginning of the school year, one at Christmas, and an all school picnic at the close of the year. With the exception of such major items as athletic equip- ment and auditorium expenses the cost of our activity program is paid for by the students and from the admissions charged. At first thought this does not seem to be much of an item, but during the year our organizations have handled over 2750. At one time these accounts were handled by separate treasures in various ways. Last fall Raymond High School put in a modern up-to-date banking system. Each organization has its own treasurer who keeps an account of the funds of his own club. These funds are deposited with a school banker. The school banker issues the club treasurer a receipt and enters the amount on the school's books. The school banker then deposits all funds, deposited with State Bankg but each fund the school's books. When bill, he draws a check on sents it to the school trc him, in one account in the Raymond is carried in a separate account on a club treasurer wishes to pay a the High School Activity Fund, pre- surer who signs it and enters it on the school's boolsg it then must be countersigned by theprhr- cipal before it is accepted at the bank. Under this system students are learning to handle money and their own finances under a system where there is little temptation or opportunity to juggle the figures. Students also know how and where the money they help raise is spent. ' L g g l Jqf, . HISTORY OF RAYMOND HIGH SCHOOL CONCLUDED In the fall students were given the opportunity of buying a season activity ticket admitting them to all school activi- ties at a reduced price. This sale of tickets was conductedin the form of a contest. The tickets proved to be so popular that every student in school bought one. The faculty, as was agreed, furnished the refreshments for the first all school party. This plan has eliminated any other ticket sale among the students, and all students have been able to come to any and all of our activities. COURSE OF STUDY. Music FRESHTTAN .

Each student started with IOO merits. A merit committee, consist- ing of three faculty members and two student members, awarded the merits for acts that in their opinion tended to make a better school. Merits were also given for high grades, for raising the grades, and for perfect attendance. The committee awarded demerits for any act which in their opinion tended to make a less efficient school such as chewing gum, sleeping in class, and whispering or disturbing the study hall. Any member of the faculty could give five demerim without having the approval of the committee. CLASS PRQPHECY The seniors of 1958 were on their skip day. A weary senior who had tired feet and only a small amount of money to spend wandered into a tent. To his surprise he found a man gazing into a round crystal globe. This man studied the stars and claimed that he had the power to give the senior a vision of what the class would be doing in 1945. The senior, being very tired, sat down and witnessed the following: On entering the city of Raymond he saw a young man named Earl Pelton greasing his new Ford that had been purchased a few months before from Gordon Boy, a salesman, in the city of Great Bend. Near this Ford stood a trailer house, inside, a woman, resembling Mildred Cruth, could be heard getting the evening meal and scolding two small children. Not many blocks from this spot he saw a large sign in front of a newly built building which bore the words, Raymond Beauty Saloon.n When passing this decorated shop, he saw two attractive young women, Agnes Fournier and Veva Thompson, busy waving the hair of Josephine Malone, who was the manager of a dry cleaning and laundry shop in Sterling. At the filling station a car was being checked by several service men. Inside at the manager's desk was Orville Hunt with a large cigar in his mouth taking short puffs now and then. He was trying to balance his books for the month. As he was about to leave the station, he heard a loud manly voice telling a story that was new to a few of the men standing near by. Wishing to know who it was, he turned around and saw Ernest Smith working on a car and at the same time telling a story. After Ernest had finished his story, the senior started a conversation with him and learned that Walter Bever was the proud owner of a sheep farm north of Raymond. All the gates and fences were wired with electricity so that it was unsafe for his best neighbors to visit him. John Dittmer was president of the Dog Catchers' association in Ray- mond and was still making his weekly visits to the farm home north of Raymond. Myrtle Williamson, after completing her college course, surprised the community by wedding a hill- billy and settling far back in the hills of Kentucky. Harold Burns was drawing a high salary -by drawing cartoons for the Raymonlite, a weekly paper. He was no longer spending his money for gas to go to Chase, but instead he was paying house rent and grocery bills. After this conversation with Ernest, the senior was con- ducted down the street to a tent on a vacant lot. In front of the tent was a large billboard bearing these words,.
