The Silver Kewanite
The Freshman Class
WHEN the Class of '34 entered Kewanee High School, every one sat up and
took notice, and why shouldn't they? This is one of the peppiest and most
intelligent classes ever entered in K. H. S.
During the second week of school we held our first class meeting and elected
officers. Miss Hilda Garms was chosen class adviser.
The next class meeting was held to decide class colors. Maroon and grey were
voted on. After investigation it was found that there were seventy more votes than
there were members present. This was very suspicious. Another meeting was held
and green and white were chosen. These did not please some members, so a petition
was sent to Mr. Robinson requesting another vote. This was granted on condition
that we be satisfied with the next colors. Finally we chose purple and gold, not,
however, without much campaigning and argument. No wonder some of the upperclassmen
were surprised when, between classes, they heard remarks like this: "Believe
me, green and white are best! I have a green and white jacket. Have your
clothes match your colors!" or, "We don't want purple and gold! Gold paint will
cost too much when we paint the stone. What do you think we arer millionaires?"
On the 19th of September, the seniors formally welcomed us to K. H. S. at a
nursery party.
Speaking of parties, the freshmen had a dandy one of their own! It was held
in the Social Room, decorated in orange and black for the occasion. Between the
entertainment and the refreshments the members of the faculty gave a stunt. We
saw ourselves as others see us!
Just watch us! We're going to prove that we have the right spirit. We'll be a
cl^s tjiat Kewanee High will be proud to claim.
