Unknown dangers lay ahead, but the adventurers were unafraid. They would succeed, for in failure they found only a greater incentive for success. Thus, with compass to guide them and their staunch ship beneath them, the sturdy sea rovers piloted the ship triumphantly into port in Iune, there to give to others the benefits of their strange cargo and their invaluable experience. tKHS .J il ff , Jalan Gbassin Gfssisfcuzf ggrincipaf KHS JJ We, the Graduating Class of 1940, sincerely and affection- ately dedicate our year book to the man who so efficiently and sympathetically carries out his task as Assistant Principal, to the man who, because of his heartfelt desire to understand and assist us, has so merited this recognition-Mr. john N. Chassin. Mr. Chassin was graduated from Hutchinson Central High School in 1909, after which he attended Buffalo Normal School. Between the years 1911 and 1914, he was Principal of the High School in Allentown, New York. After three years, he became a teacher in Public School 58. In January 1922, he was appointed head of the Department of Science at South Park High School. In 1929 he was graduated from Canisius College with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Later he increased his knowledge of science and philosophy with extension work at Canisius. He was appointed head of the South Park Annex in September of 1954, where he remained until he received his present appointment. In each of these positions Mr. Chassin distinguished himself for his capability and geniality. Many are the arduous tasks he performs in his capacity as the Assistant Principal. On his shoulders rests the duty of supervising the attendance records, and it is from him that the absentee secures the slip admitting him to class. At times he takes charge of honor assemblies and acts as chairman of the debates. Mr. Chassin now resides in Vlfilliamsville with his wife and two children. On vacations, he prefers golfing and fishing as his outdoor activities, while in winter, his favorite pastime is bowling, at which he is very adept. Mr. Chassin heartily approves of sports, and has a firm conviction that every boy should take part in some form of athletics to develop body, mind and character. Our Assistant Principals stern outward appearance con- ceals a profound warmth of heart. Inspiration he was, friend he still is, and ideal will he always be, to us, the members of the 1940 Graduating Class. KHS e LC6LfLOIZ rel Long ere the good ship Compass left its pier, the valiant captain and his intrepid first mate had charted the course with watchful care, alert to steer clear of dangerous reefs and hidden shoals. Guided by their skill and vigilance, sus' tained by faithful officers, equipped to weather every squall, the gallant vessel put out to sea. Under fair skies and foul she rode the waves, conquered every storm and triumphantly dropped anchor in the port of success.

Mr. McDonnell has distinguished himself in his ability to lead young men and women through the most difficult time of their lives. Always striving upward, our principal is ever encouraging the students to take advan- tage of the opportunities offered, so that they may become leaders in the better America of tomorrow. When he is not busy attending to his onerous school duties, Mr. McDonnell is an enthusiastic football and baseball fan. Truly, Kensington is to be envied in having such a man to lead her through her first and most difficult years. Hai! to our Chief! KHS gba gacuffy of THOMAS I MCDONNELL, M.

The program began with the singing of The Star Spangled Banner , followed by a medley of airs from Victor Herbert played by the orchestra, and two solos by Kenneth Parker. As usual, Dr. Bapst left with the students many intellectual gems. Among the highlights we record the following: There comes to my office only the finest commendation of the work being done here and of the student body. My visit to you this year is to commend you and to encourage you to press forward and not deviate from the high standards that have been set. What is the essential element of education? I would say that the essential feature is the training in good habits-good physical habits, good mental habits, good moral habits . . . Although we may forget much of the factual knowledge we accumulate, the habits and training remain. What finer trait is there than punctuality? When your teachers insist on promptness, it is to train you while you are still adaptable . . . In the outer world, a man's sense of responsibility is frequently judged by his sense of punctualityf' The best way to acquire the habit of study is to study. You can acquire the habit of reading only by reading . . . This is the time when your tastes must be cultivated. To acquire a taste for good books, you must always read something just a little bit above your mental level, otherwise you will remain always on the same levelf' lt is gratifying to meet young men and women out of high school a number of years and to see with what effort they are trying to speak correctly. They now realize how important is good speech in the business world and are trying haltingly to acquire it by themselves. But in school they had all the help they needed. Those things which are the most valuable assets to a successful career, you can begin to make habits now while you have the opportunity. The condition in Europe today is, in my opinion, the result of a false teaching that was promulgated some years ago. One of those tenets is that no man has natural rights, but that all rights are acquired. If that is so, then what you see abroad is the natural consequence. Frequent comparisons are made between the youth of today and the youth of twenty- five or thirty years ago. The conclusion is, that after all, young people are practically the same. Fundamentally, they are just as good. But I would say that there is this distinction. Twenty-five or thirty years ago, the young person in getting away from the straight and narrow path recognized that he war off the straight and narrow path and eventually hoped to get back on it again. Today, the average young person feels that the path he is on if the right path. He does not recognize another path, straight and narrow. The wise young man who has some regard for his moral welfare, the wise young woman who has a sacred regard for hers, recognizes that there is a straight and narrow path and that a deviation from that path constitutes that which is wrong. Don't be misled by talk that, as times change, the morals of people change. Good is good and bad is bad for all times. As you read that the world is going to be set straight by the youth of today, let me point out that that will be true only provided the young people recognize the truths that make for happiness and peace. What is needed today is for the young to say: 'We will bring back a complete recognition of those essential truths upon which the happiness, peace, and contentment of mankind must rest and upon which alone can the world find a secure foundation'. 12 I gkafurizzq The class bell rings, the door is shut, and everything is quiet. We think again, Ah me, alack, why do I ever try it? In every room in Kensington, precisely on the dot, The teacher knows instinctively if we're preparedgor not. In our midst at Kensington, We have two ladies fair, Familiar with the theatre- Miss Strickland and Miss Blair. Dear student, have you ever seen fAnd more than once at that,j The look on Mr. Pinkow's face When Hillman's horn goes flat? If all your creditors threaten to sue, And legal matters worry youg It's Mr. Rosettie you should see, He'll give advice without a fee. Said Miss Maloney to her boys, There's nothing quite so much annoys, And looks disgraceful to the eye, As a junior boy without a tie. Our own Miss Heacock in 406 Knows every little freshman's tricks. She patiently teaches the tiny tots, To keep their homework free from blots. To decline, to conjugate, to parse, Is really rather fun, Until Mr. Gleason finds Our homework isn't done. She gives him the author, the period, the work That's Miss Curran speaking. And into Glen Howard's solid skull, A little Lit. comes leaking. For Messrs. Smith and Chassin We great devotion feel, Although they cut our movie By leaving out a reel! A sight that every eye did please, Was our geisha girls-so Japanese With mincing steps and waving fans, They carried out Miss Otte's plans. For dates and places, The Olympic races, The life of Cook, Or a history book, For fact and fiction, Or a matter of diction, If you want to be wiser, See Miss Hartman and Miss We don't mind, The daily grind. For Mr. Millard We study hard. With Ivlr. Sauter It's art we slaughter. For Miss Link We have to think. With Miss Haley We learn daily. For Miss Lehde We shorthand read. With Mrs. Heaps No student peeps. Oh, we don't mind The daily grind- fhe Jlacuffy Keiser. The only thing we'd like to knowf What makes that clock so slow? 13 Slowly, the anchor is weighed, the sails hoisted, and the vessels of the seniors depart from the dock. Ahead lie the turbulent waters of the Worldg behind is the calm harbor of their youth. Sadly, they wave farewell to oihcers along the shore. It was their untiring instrucf tion that built the sturdy hulls for this voyage. Former shipmates exchange cries of encourage' ment as each drifts out into a separate channel. What adventures will be recorded in their logs? What new stars will pilot their course? Their ports lie beyond the sundrenched Sea of the Future. KHS 1940 LEO DENTINGER Preriderzf A true leader is our able president, who has exhibited his executive ability time and again, attaining promi- nence by serving in an official capacity many organ- izations to which he has belonged. As a favorite pastime, he reads those gripping murder mysteries. d erzior ass jfgcers MARIAN HORTON Vice-Preridefzl Our competent vice-president is probably best known for her ability as a speaker. Because of her pleasing 3, personality, initiative and wholehearted support of vari- ous school activities, her election was received with popular acclaim. EUGENE SALTARELLI T7'E:l.S'll7'6f Gene , because he is such a well-mannered in- dividual, may be referred to as the gentleman of the Senior officials. His success he attributes to his par- ticipation as a member of the debate team. RUTH HOWARD Serrelary Ruth is prominent not only as secretary of her class, but also as a sportswoman. She participated in practi- cally every activity the school sponsored with the characteristic eagerness which makes her outstanding. RAYMOND CASTINE Boyf' Mamiya! The sports enthusiast of the class officers is Raymond Castine, enjoying basketball, baseball and tennis. A typical class marshal, he is handsome, erect and broad- shouldered. ARLINE LIEDY Girly' Mufrfml Diligent, cooperative and capable, noted for her friendly smile and scholastic attainments, Arline Liedy, always prepared, and ever willing to aid the friend in need, is the choice individual for this post. KI-IS 60 fha Seniors Three years ago you began your voyage through the high school seas at Kensington. You had received one year of training in the art of navigation at one of the other high schools in this or some other city. You had spent a year in learning to plot your course through the troublesome waters of secondary educa- tion and, after faithfully following that course, have now arrived safely in port. Now as you disembark from your sheltered cabins to begin your new jour- ney on the stormy seas of life, your burdens are lessened because of the training you have received. All of the hazards that you must encounter can surely be overcome. Courageous and determined pilots steer their ships cautiously and carefully through storm and fog into the sunlight and color on the other side of the troubled waters. Determination, self-assurance, loyalty, and integrity are the main points on your compass. To set your course on these unchanging points assures your arrival at your destination--success in life. Careful planning, conscientious application of effort, sincere regard for your fellow man, and the adaptation of sound moral principles to your daily activities become the beacons of travel for every Ken- sington graduate. Sincerely yours, g KVM e Lcfory Tonight, as we stand upon the threshold of life, we must bid adieu to the sheltering walls of Kensington High School and step forth into a turbulent, ever-changing world. Facing an uncertain future, we are bewildered, yet unafraid, for the past four years have instilled in us lofty ideals, and have taught us to be constantly aware of our motto, Aegis Fortissima Virtusf' Tonight, we have arrived at the cross roads and it is with deepest regret, yet tenderest regard, that we say farewell to the companions with whom we have traversed the highways of our high school life. To you, Mr. McDonnell, who have inspired each one of us with the will to succeed and who has enriched our lives with your ideals, we can only say sincerely and affectionately, Thank you. In years to come, when we are no longer guided by your influence, your kindness and consideration will be cherished as our fondest memories. We also wish to express our appreciation to Mr. Chassin for his kindly assistance. To every member of the faculty, whose capability and efficiency have enabled us to be listed among the members of the 1940 Graduating Class, we bid a farewell mingled with gratitude and deep affection. Without their voluntary assistance, untiring patience, and their sincere regard for our welfare, we would never have succeeded. At this moment, our hearts are filled with an ardent desire to prolong our four years of high school, to relive the past and perhaps make reparation for the little use we have made of the splendid opportunities offered us here, yet we must go on. The hour has come when we must cease our high school education and prepare for the education of life, when.we must sever the ties that link us to the past, and take our places in a society lost in a tide of conflicting emotions, selfishness, and overwhelming ambitions. Here, in this Graduating Class, we have a composite picture of the America of the future. Whether we become members of the professional or industrial world, it is upon our shoulders that the task of maintaining American integrity and ideals will be placed. The generation now dying out looks to the youth of America to safeguard our democratic principles and to preserve forever our government of the people, for the people, and by the peoplef' At this task, we shall not falter. Now, as we recall the joyous four years with their pleasant acquaintances and well- loved friends, we reluctantly take leave of our beloved Alma Mater, sincerely hoping that our small achievements will be an inspiration to the classes yet to come. Armed with our faith in God, the fervor of youth, and the courage of our convictions, we need have nothing to fear, let us only remember: The past is but a story told, The future may be writ in gold. -EILEEN DANITZ 17 Gfass Mary Determined, yet hesitating, bold, yet timid, like those early Phoenician 'YN sailors venturing beyond the sight of land 5 a bevy of young grammar school alumni approached the vast portals which gave access to the mysterious interiors of several of the Queen City's secondary schools. Impressive seniors, new teachers, and strange faces confronted them, but they advanced undaunted and unafraid. Through perseverance and endless labors, their names have become an integral part of the histories of these institutions of higher learning. Among these we recognize Esther Smith and joan Motz shyly advancing down the aisle of Bennett's auditorium, hair adorned with green ribbons, the symbol of the bewildered fresh- men. However, soon adapting themselves to high school life at Hutchinson, Arline Liedy, Beatrice Urso, and Dolores Mazzanti participated in deck tennis, while Islay Turner captained the volleyball team. Frequently heard among the test tubes in Bennett Annex 80's laboratory were Mr. Albing's sagacious words addressed to Leo Dentinger, You are cut out for science, young man. While Charlotte Simmons amazed aloof upper classmen by capturing the coveted second place on East's honor roll, Vera Filler and june Becker achieved scholastic success as honor roll leaders at School 80, as did Allan Will at Hutchinson's Annex No. 16. However, not so industrious were Jeanne Jankowska, Edith Ries, and Arline Wendlinger who indulged so much in conversation that they were frequently the guests of the teachers after school at East's Annex. In fact, observing the earlier history of the Class of '40, we can understand why freshmen are isolated in annexes far from the dignified halls of the main building! Among those who leisurely meandered back to the annex after occasional carnival excursions to East High School's audi- torium, were Harold Dukarm, Richard Hart, Luther Stresing and company. A memorable assembly at School 80 was one in which Edward Textor was honored for his special talents in the manual arts. The versatile Ruth Howard also distinguished herself by earning several athletic awards at the annex. Thus, having successfully ventured beyond the sight of land, unafraid despite many disastrous failures on rocky coasts and treacherous shoals, the early adventurers firmly established and recorded their discoveries and again set out into uncharted seas with conhdence given by stronger ships, more experienced sailors, and a greater knowledge of the ways of the sea. Similarly, the young student again set forth on stormy seas with his added confidence and experience to carry him through many a blow. His was now a new school, for we find all our previously scattered freshmen assembled as sophomores in the newly-opened Kensington High School. Like a new ship, the new Alma Mater had to be proven seaworthy. Perceiving this fact, he immediately gave himself wholeheartedly to the task, thus carving a name for himself in the log of the voyage of education. Capable, intellectual leadership was found in the person of I I 1 Arline Wendlinger, who was awarded the Sophomore Scholastic Medal, although .5- Elfrieda Olender, Eugene Saltarelli, and Allan Will furnished vigorous competi- tion. Exhibiting the importance of safety in everyday life, Marcella Grimm Ill' 'entered the Safety Poster Contest and as a result of her skill, received honorable .A mention. Meanwhile, with the assistance of Mr. Warren, Mr. Bergstrom, and , I Miss Otte, intramural sports were organized and several of the neighboring high schools were invited to compete in exhibition games, thus preparing our athletes for entrance into official competition the following year. In this manner, several outstanding athletes were discovered including jack Umfreville, Frank s Y, Sturm, Alvin Rittman, Robert Martin, and Frederick Heck. Not to be outdone in S in athletics were Betty james, Dorothy Heil, Betty Holzworth, Bernice Oaks, Carol Mirti, Audrey Besant and Theresa Ernst. Inspired by Mr. Pinkow, the first band and orchestra of Kensington made remarkable progress. Instrumental in this progress were Ruth Schneider, Donald Miller, Alphonso Rewers, and Robert Lajoie. That year, as we watched the impressive dedication and lirst graduation ceremony in our new school, we thought proudly of the successful year just completed. VW! . e..iiui' rr t fi if c KHS M Assisted by the invention of the compass and the sextant, the skill of the shipbuilder and the development of steam power, the sailor was now prepared ' . to conquer the sea and make it his servant, not his master. Thus, the haughty 1 junior, now an upperclassman, approached his third year in high school. Con- 3 xt, fident, experienced, and prepared to assist in the administrative leadership of the X -, school, he attacked his activities with a vengeance. The first victim of this new . ' :fl vigor was interscholastic football. Hugh Lipsius and Frederick Heck distinguished - -'L -Milf. - themselves on the football team, as did jack Field, the city champion in the high T TE school hurdles, in track, Clayton Rung and Donald Borrman in tennis, Ronald ,, g Dannecker and William Seelbach in swimming, Robert Reis, Raymond Loughran, 2 and Rocco Moreno in cross country. Enhancing the prestige of the art department, Irene Brauza and joan Motz received second prize and honorable mention respec- tively in the Safety Poster Contest. Pioneering in the field of elocution, Marian Horton, who represented Ken- sington in the Girls' Declamation Contest brought glory to herself and her school by placing third in the finals. In keeping with the high scholastic standards set previously, Eileen Danitz, through perseverance and tenacious application to her studies, won the junior Scholastic Medal. The outstanding musical event of the season was the magnificent Christmas Pageant which was the result of industry and endless practice on the part of genial Mr. Pinkow and the cast which included Donald Miller, jack Fulton, and Robert Floss. As the year drew to a close, the difficult task of selecting their representatives confronted the members of the junior Class. Almost unani- mously was john Umfreville elected president, Marian Horton, vice-presidentg Raymond Castine, treasurer, and Marie Merkel, secretary. Soon after, the officers chose Vera Filler and Charles Fiden as marshals. Finally, the seven seas were explored and charted, and the navigators, bent on improvement and perfection, developed the modern streamlined colossus of the ocean. Similarly, the senior prepared to specialize as well as broaden his knowledge, in order to acquire a polish and finesse with which to face the future. Sighting the port of success, the competent senior intensified his study, determined to assure completion of his final voyage. So deter- mined was Ruth Schneider that early in the year, her scholastic attainments were the envy of the entire Senior Class. Indeed, reflective of this spirit were the amazing accomplishments of Norman Vester, Lorne Smith, Robert Knechtel, Rocco Moreno, and Robert Reis, stars of the championship cross country team which brought Ken- sington its first cup. No less amazing was the second place attained by the swimming team, led by captains Robert Martin and Donald Holmwood, who is city champion in the 100-yard free style. Although unable to record such signal victories, the debate teams, including Marian Horton, Eugene Sal- V6, tarelli, and Leo Dentinger, established the school as an able contender for future Q ftp Q Q debating honors. Assembling the abundant musical talent available, Mr. Pinkow . undertook the task of presenting Kensington's first operetta, Miss Cherry 5? 2,-'f Blossom. Prominent seniors in the cast were Lillian Wieser, jack Hagelberger, ,SDM Z' 2 George Franke, and Harold Hanover. Extending our prestige, the capable chess Q xv U -1 2 team scored several si nal victories under the efficient leadershi of Thomas , X A - L 8 . P X I . Willadsen.

Rain-proof and tear-proof, Always sunny and bright, Marian Horton'S smile Is a beautiful sight. My, but he did cause a rumpus Charles Fiden as Kenneth Compass. We laughed to see him give that dollar To Dentinger, the Latin scholar. Handsome, carrot-topped, in suit of green, Fiery-tongued orator Rudy Speen, Criticizing all Stalin has said- Insists we're wrong when we call him Red, To the honor and rank of our Hall of Fame I.et's add with joy another name, It's Kemp and his team we really mean- They won a trophy, the first we've seen. Don't mind if we act like a mother hen. You see it's because we're proud of Ken. Wliere else on earth in a single school Are Seelbach and Dannecker in the same pool? How enthusiastic he did seem, It's cheerleader Fritschi I mean. But, oh! how different he was in class Where he loved to snooze and dream of his lass! We loudly cheer our tennis team For us their racquets swung, And only Kensington can boast A Borrman and a Rung. Gag him, crown him, chain him downg Believe me, I'm not lyin'. To silence Harold Hanover Is hardly worth the tryin'! A smart little lass So charming and neat, Smiling Dot Ryberg- My, but she's sweet! The enemy is bewildered. Their defense line is a wreck. They must give in, 'Cause they can't win Opposed by Field and Heck, Gerry Welsh could sell ice boxes For Eskimos' houses of snow, Or furnaces to natives Where palm trees grow. A hair tonic to Edgar Bergen, A rival's lotion to Mr. Jergen At Cozzzprm' sales, she made us quiver, And very quickly a quarter give her! The girls think he's darling, The boys think he's swell. What I think of Knechtel- I'd better not tell! 4 Hail to our dauntless crew, the classes who man the ship! While seas run high and brisk winds hum in the rigging, we see them tug at the halyards, hoist the sails, take a trick at the wheel and keep the long watch. Hardy seamen they are, Who, when others are storm tossed, lower the boats and speed to the rescue. Through flying spray and running tide they sail the rag' ing main, Hnish with flying colors their year before the mast.

KHS Singing is tops in Marion's estimation, but danc- ing runs a close second. About her favorite sport, Marion says, I call it swimming but most people say it's just paddling around. The inharmonious result of singing off-key is her admitted phobia. HERMAN PEASE Trearurer In this junior we have a fine example of a sound mind in a sound body.

Yet the past was fun, we agree. We started out with a splash. Of course, it would be a freshman who accidentally put her finger on the drinking fountain-and a senior table was splashed. Result: a chastened frosh who learned to mop up. Ask Helen Cleary what is meant by the Third Degree ! We wondered why some girls from the fourth fioor were always late until we dis' Covered some of them are so small they get lost in their lockers. Take a look at Mary Jane Blue, Eileen Dearlove, or Jackie Reilly! But size didn't count when we surprised the whole school with our Christmas decora- tions. They came from miles around to see the windows painted by Marjorie Jennings, Betty Jane Hauptmann, Ann Heusinger, and Elizabeth Miller. Maybe we didnlt know all the school cheers, but we could yell! And we went over the top with year book sales . . . 406 was 100721 . . . how's that for school spirit? Perhaps it was due to the officers we elected. Marjorie Maier, chairman, Margaret Field, Kathleen Kent, and Marjorie Jennings kept us on our toes. We know it was Jeanne Dilger as Miss Foo Ling that made the advertising for Mirr Cf76l'l'J'f?f0J'50ll2 such a success. And did you know that Dorothy Pfeifer, competing with Juniors and Seniors, nearly made the debate team? Carolyn Robinson and Roberta Brown offered stiff competition to the honor roll leaders. You'll find Carolyn in the picture with the big threef' Perhaps green is really a sign of freshness and vigor. Look at the activities of the boys in 306! With Joseph Ernst as chairman, the boys presented a stirring Armistice Day assembly in which Robert Hemann, James Landsheft, John Handel, Ralph Bolton, Robert Farrell, Aldo Narduzzo and George Reilly participated. Ralph Prieur and Edwin Stevenson sounded like expert buglers. Charles Wells, Donald Flach, Robert Gentile, Stuart Allen, and Henry Zagara made an impressive escort to the fiag. For energy plus, Peter Wingerter has no equal. Not only did he manage the Com- pass sales in 504 and hound his classmates for their last cent, but he stage-managed Min CA7El'J'J!bf0.YJ'0l7l practically single-handed. QMr. Smith stood by and cheered.J Joseph Ernst and Anthony DeMaria sold operetta tickets by the dozen . . . everybody wanted to see Peter's moon. There's lots of All-High material in 306. Already we find Nelson Welch capturing the place of Assistant Manager on the Baseball Team. Richard Morsheimer and Arthur Maciejewski did a fine job as Room Manager and Room Captain during the Intramural Track meets. Hugo Johnson kept the Seniors burning the midnight oil to beat his honor roll averages. When rehearsals started for the Christmas Pageant, there was Gerald Bugman with the voice and the smile needed for the perfect Christmas Spirit. As heralds, the Freshmen Boys made music history . . . in their own way. So, if we do say it ourselves, a handsomer, brighter, more enthusiastic and energetic group than the Freshmen will never be seen in Ken High . . . until you look at the Sopho- rnores of 1941! 77 Gafeferia Wanda Bednarska Franklin Boehler Margaret Brylinski Anthony Compgtillo Carl Diederich Raymond Does John Ellis Mary Glieco Charlotte Goerke Mary Hofer Edward Huss Edward Kilijanski KI-IS joseph Kurgan Angeline: LaPorte Alice Lewandowski james Liles Irving Osofsky Adeline Pastecki Mary Raccucia james Smith Norman Taylor Lorraine Thomann Florian Wojdula Arthur Zimmermann O Arline Angst Margaret Bauer Corinne Bebber Bernice Brecht Barbara Brovel Vesta Dicks Robert Elberson Donald Felske Daniel Fitzsirnons Robert Hendrickson Edward Horre .J osf QVQJLLQEES Phyllis Kolb Elizabeth McCarthy james Mclntosh james Mumm Richard Newell Ellen O'Brien William Schneider Robert Schroeder Arthur Stark Margaret Weber Helen Wightman KHS 79 Seated:-D.

A continuous din resounds over the ship, from the top of the main sail to the bottom of the lowest hold. Even after daily tasks are done, activity does not close. Each sailor seeks relaxation and enjoyment with mates who have congenial interests. With a merry yarn and a jolly laugh, the treasured hours off watch ily quickly by. KHS Q I l-il 1-. ag GOHZPQSS Highlights of the year: in December, the 1939 Compass won a blue ribbon in interscholastic competition, ranking fourth. In the spring, staff members produced such a stirring drama in an assembly that sales hit the new high of 2,200. At the May convention of the press association, Karl Meyer gave a sensational talk on our business methods. In june, herculean staff work got the 1940 book to press in the nick of time, leaving the exhausted editors with just enough strength to thank warmly all those who so ably assisted in the production and financing of this year's Corrzparr.

The mem- bers congregate in Room 206 every second and fourth Thursday of each month. The rulers of this organization were chosen as follows: president, Robert Knechtelg vice-president, Martha Fink, and secretary, Marian Horton. The members of this club presented a comedy, At the Soda Eountainy' which met with tremendous success. The cast of this presentation consisted of Edward Carsland, Rita Dobmeier, Martha Fink, Marcella Grimm, Joseph Heav- ern, Robert Knechtel, Gordon Kirchmeyer, Elaine Majchrzak, Carol Maloney and Geraldine Welsh. Catherine Duggan and Dorothy Basinski were respon- sible for this fine production which brought to light the theatrical abilities of the group. The club showed great interest and activity in the study of Shakespearean works. In view of this interest, Dorothy Basinski, Catherine Duggan and Edward Carsland reported on Maurice Evans' production of Hamlet . When the Studio Theatre presented Macbeth , the representation from the club was almost unanimous. After witnessing the play, the club members were able to criticize it constructively and destructively. A reading contest sponsored by the club with Miss Blair and Miss Strickland acting as judges was held at one of the last meetings. Catherine Duggan, Martha Fink and joseph Heavern gave reports on the dramatic conference they attended at Jane Keeler's Studio Theatre. Hedda Gabler , a presentation by the University of Buffalo students, was reviewed by Martha Fink. Robert Knechtel, added an interesting touch to the meetings by relating the history of marionettes and giving demonstrations of his own creations. KHS gfisfory gjihrum Shortly before Christmas, the History Forum was organized under the direc- tion of Miss Walker. The members elected Robert Beyer, president, Norma Ifouchie, vice-president, Francis McCarthy, secretary, and Dolina Sellon, treasurer. The club met every two weeks in room 162, thevmembership being equally divided into several committees. Each group was responsible for the activity of one meeting. One of the committees, with the aid of Miss Dickman and Miss McCarthy, provided for the other members a very informative discussion on soil conservation. This was accompanied by Pare Lorentz's The Rivern, a movie on the same topic. At another meeting, Latin America was the topic pre- sented by Vera Filler, Robert Beyer, Beatrice Muther and Geraldine Welsh who read papers on the A B C countries and Mexico. Under the capable guidance of Mr. Joyce, the members of the club climaxed the season with the presentation of a program on the Fart East. Throughout the year the History Forum has provided vital information as well as pleasure to all the students of Kensington High School who were so fortunate as to become members. Among the others who gave freely of their time and efforts in the prepara- tion of the club's programs were Mr. Nugent, Stanley Lewis, Kenneth Ragan, Ruth Donohue, and Virginia Scharlau.

They are only the utterances of the members of the Debate Club having a discussion. It is certainly amazing that Mr. Nugent and Miss Lee were not troubled by such mutterings, for they have coached and assisted the Debate Team throughout the year in a most com- mendable manner. It was in September that the first call for members was sent out. Many stu- dents joined at this time while others waited until january to enter. Among those who were enrolled during the course of the year but who were winnowed out in the keen competition and thus did not become members of the team were: Robert Beyer, Allan Will, Dorothy Pfeifer, Robert Farrell and Harold Martin. Selected for their ability to think and speak clearly, the members proved that they also were industrious and faithful workers. They labored so diligently that regular meetings were eliminated. After weeks of careful preparation, Kensington entertained Hutchinson in the first debate of the year. The subject was: Resolved: An extension of the system of consumer cooperatives would be advantageous to the people of the United States. Lady Luck seems to have deserted us on this occasion, for our negative team gamely surrendered to Hutchinson with a score of S to 7, and our affirmative team lost to Lafayette by 11 to 4. In the Spring, the question debated was: Resolved: The State of New York should adopt a retail sales tax on tangible property and personal services. Our guest, Grover Cleveland, again captured the honors by a score of 8 to 7. Our affirmative side lost to Riverside by 8 to 7 also. Undaunted by these defeats which were due only to inexperience, the Debate Club will again be organized next year for students anxious to learn the art of public speaking. KI-IS Seated:-V. Filler, D.

Officiating members of the club were Robert Reis, president, Dorothy Beenau, vice-president, james McIntosh, secretary, and Dorothy McKenica, treasurer. This year's membership reached a total of twenty boys and girls, half of whom were novices at the game. Much of the first term was spent in teaching members the fundamentals of chess, while older members spent the time in practice games, thus securing more experience. A tournament was held during the Christmas season and jack Distler captured the high award, a two-pound box of candy. QNO statistics were available on how much was left when jack escaped from the meetingj Ten members of this club have formed the Kensington Chess Team which has competed in several matches with other schools. With the aid of Mr. Mila lard's valuable coaching, our team was able to emerge victorious from all four matches. The two matches against Burgard resulted in scores of 6 to 4 and 8 to 2 in favor of our team. Likewise, the Seneca team was decisively beaten 9 to 1 and 6 to 1 by such expert players as Dorothy Beenau, Lila Capenhurst, jack Distler, Vera Filler, Bob johnson, Jim Mclntosh, Dorothy McKenica, Ruth Norton, jim Willadsen and Tom Willadsen, who composed our team. A Round Robin School Championship Tournament was held by the club during which each member played every other member for one game. After these keenly contested games, Tom Willadsen was declared champion and re- ceived a gold cup, awarded by Mr. McDonnell in an assembly. The runner-up, jack Distler, received a silver medal for his efforts. Dorothy Beenau, the Girls' Chess Champion, also received a silver medal. For an object lesson in real concentration, clear thinking, and skillful planning, we suggest a visit to the Chess Club in action! - KI-IS l iii..- i l li-1-. OHZHZZVCZ During the past year, the Commerce Club, under the guidance of the com- mercial teachers of the school, has grown to considerable numbers. Meetings were held once a month on Wednesday afternoons in Room 306 with Allan Will presiding, Dorothy Askin serving as vice-president, and Leonard Nieman faithfully keeping the notes of each meeting. The purpose of the club is to cultivate the acquaintance of people experi- enced in business who can give the members practical information on various commercial problems. At almost every meeting it was the club's good fortune to have guests who spoke on subjects that are of great interest to those who intend to enter the business world. The first speaker was Mr. Haynes, who gave a demonstration of the dictaphone. At the next meeting Mr. Shilt, the Director of Commercial Education in Buffalo, spoke on NW hat the Businessman Expects of a High School Studentn. Early this year members heard a speech on sales- manship from Mr. Safford. In April came the visit of Miss Elizabeth Spenser, who demonstrated a new type of machine called the Vari-Typer. All these speeches have helped us to attain more nearly the ideals of the club. We close this year with the hope that the Commerce Club will continue to grow in both numbers and importance as it has done throughout the past eight months. May it always be able to interest the students of Kensington High School in its activities, and, with their help, achieve its aims. KHS l l'l 'l . cierzce fab This year the former Science Club was divided into two groups, the junior and Senior Science Clubs. The upper group met twice a month on Wednesdays in room 409 under the sponsorship of Mr. Mountain. Most of the members were physics and chemistry students who wished to learn more about modern scientific developments and the application of classroom knowledge to everyday life. C. Wm. Seelbach, president, arranged with the aid of Mr. Rutstein and Mr. McDonnell for the enrollment of the club in the American Institute of Science and Engineering Clubs. This organization sent pins to the Kensington High School Chapter and in February a book received from the Institute was presented to Miss Hartman. It is now on display in the library where any students who wish to may read it. At meetings the activity has been varied and enjoyable for all present. A lecture was given on plasticsg diatoms were studied under the microscopeg and a radio program was presented. The officers for this year were: president, C. Wm. Seelbachg secretary, Shirley Francis. The junior group, whose members were Freshmen who studied General Science, met on alternate Wednesdays in room 459. jane Schmitt was elected secretary, while Howard Bork was chosen president. Janet Flickensher became vice-president. Charles Wluitcller, a Lafayette High School student, gave a demonstration on snakes that he had taken to the New York World's Fair in the summer of 1959. Francis Carroll from Amherst High School spoke on the mounting of animal skeletons. Mrs. Eardman and Mr. Mountain acted as faculty advisors and helped the pupils to enjoy their classroom studies by making scientific knowledge an inter- esting hobby. KI-IS -l .-l.. Seated:-N.

Sfide jgufe They say slide rules enable one to solve difficult problems easily. The use of this wonderful implement was carefully explained at the meetings of the Slide Rule Club. Mr. Larrabee, faculty advisor, sponsored two groups: one for girls, another for boys. The officers of both factions were chosen in this unusual and unique man- ner: Mr. Larrabee presented a difficult mathematical problem, one to each group, and the boy and girl who solved the problem with the highest score were auto- matically established as president. This method seems to be very good, allow- ing the people with the greater amount of mathematical skill to occupy the high- est office. The two presidents were: Miriam Sess and Walter Slazak. That good old stand-by, popular ballot, secured for the girls the following officers: Mildred Reis, vice-president, and Norma Oefner, secretary. The results for the boys were Floyd Uhteg, vice-president, and Earl Dahlquist, secretary. During the fall, both the girls and the boys diligently set about measuring the height of our now esteemed chimney. Cold winter months provided the invitation and opportunity to stay inside and solve some brain-tickling mathe- matical problems and puzzles contributed by the members. Warm weather enticed members to seek wide open spaces and measure everything in sight, including the stars, moon and other planets. The sextant proved to be a very handy article in this practice as well as in constructing circles and measuring angles. With all these fascinating activities all those interested in engineering and even those who aren't, should join this interesting organization. KHS y . l l 4 - .. - 1st Row:-R. Ronalds, 1. Welclm, E.

There were about thirty members rang- ing from freshmen to seniors and post-graduates. The haven of the Camera Club members was Room 401 Where Carlton Schutt ruled as president, Corinne Bebber as vice-president, and Geraldine Welsh as secretary at the meetings held on the second and fourth Friday of each month. These meetings proved entertaining and educational to all present. The art of taking a good picture of some interesting subject at the appropriate time, and attractively presenting it, was usually the main topic of discussion. Mr. Haynes, the faculty advisor, has given the shutterbugs much practical advice about the taking, developing, printing and mounting of pictures. He helped the members to take better indoor and outdoor pictures. He explained and illustrated the method of mounting pictures after they had been taken and printed by the members. At another meeting, the art of taking silhouette pic- tures was practiced by the club members. During the year the members made a snapshot display of their own work and exhibited it in one of the school display cases. Many of the informal snap- shots on the snapshot pages of the Compass, were submitted by members. The Camera Club extends a cordial invitation to all students to participate in the club's activities during the coming years. KHS .l1l Tl--. kg7'6I'ZClZ fab Bon jour, this familiar phrase bubbled fluently from the lips of the various members as they assembled for their meetings which were held every first Tues- day of the month in Room 243. This sudden interest in the French language was fostered by Miss Belknap and came into being at the beginning of the second semester. Francis Bissonette was the presiding linguist at the meetings and was assisted by Margaret Muto as vice-president. joseph Cugini acted as secretary and Cath- erine Rose as treasurer. An interesting, if sometimes complicated, note was added to the meetings when Secretary Cugini attempted to call the roll in French! An executive committee of members arranged the programs and among the interesting results of their unselfish efforts were the French motion pictures secured for one of the meetings. Another successful program was the address by Mr. Braton, a native Frenchman and faculty member of the University of Lille, but now at the University of Buffalo. He spoke on French manners and customs at a meeting to which non-members were also invited. Dramatics and music were also favorite diversions. Guessing games in French proved to be popular and two members, Virginia Scharlau and Dorothy Sikorski were awarded dolls and candy for securing the highest averages in this competition. Another pleasingly familiar scene was le president opening the meetings in singularly halting French! However, the club has done much to increase the students' knowledge of France and its customs and has also served the very valuable purpose of encourag- ing members to try their knowledge of the language in everyday conversation. KHS . -Mil - 6l'l'I'Z6LIZ LLL One day after school, having been delayed at 2:50 Qfor reasons best not revealedj I was rather late in leaving the building. As I passed Room 259 on my way out, I heard somebody singing but certainly not in English. Pausing a moment, I imagined at first that Kensington had been invaded by foreigners. Finally, overcome by curiosity, I knocked and was bidden to enter. Inside I dis- covered that what I had imagined to be a group of foreigners, was just the Ger- man Club holding a meeting. My stammering apology for intruding was disregarded by Miss Stahl, the charming president of the club, who graciously invited me to stay and enjoy my- self. The other officers, Robert Green, vice-president, june Whitehead, secre- tary, and George Kraus, treasurer, seconded this cordial invitation. So presently, I found myself seated next to Miss Wfesterman, the sponsor of the club. As the meeting progressed, Miss Westerman explained that the club was holding an informal meeting that day since it was the fourth Monday of the month. At this time the members sang German songs and played German games. Later I discovered that Fruchtkorb and Ringlein, Ringleinn were the favorite games, while Du du liegst mir im Herzen and Heidenroslein were the most popular songs. Continuing her explanation, Miss Westerman told me that a formal meeting was held on the second Monday of each month. At this gathering, the members usually listened to a speech on some outstanding German musician or writer. Members also sang songs. Enjoying the afternoon as I was, I felt that the meeting ended much too soon. However, I left after an invitation to come again and with the assurance that there would always be a German Club at Kensington to give the students the opportunity of mastering the practical as well as the enjoyable part of the German language. KHS M4 ilill. l - .Baffin fab This year, the third anniversary of its foundation, the Latin Club celebrated the birthday of one of the most successful and active organizations in Kensington High School. Under the able sponsorship of Miss McCarthy, meetings were held monthly in Room 252. The members, some veterans and others recruits, elected Donald Nickson and Bertha Falk as Consuls Q president and vice-president respectively to us who are not blessed Latin studentsij Ruth Schneider was chosen Scriba fafter con- sulting Suzie Smithis Latin text for two periods, I found that scriba'l means 'write' and thereafter laboriously decided that Ruth was the secretaryj Jean Popp was entrusted with the treasury funds and given the title of Quaestor. Meetings were held on Wednesdays, except on special occasions such as the Ides of March. At this meeting, Shakespeares juliur Caemr was read to the group. Games concerning the name and life of Caesar were also played. On another occasion, slides depicting Roman life and civilization were shown, and a lively discussion followed. At some meetings, plays and anecdotes having a Roman background were read and commented upon. Besides games and readings, the members also made and displayed models of Roman life and architecture. In this way, the members not only succeed in entertaining themselves, but they also make their study of Latin more interesting and practical. Among club members there is an increased interest in the classics and a more intelligent understanding of their background. Thus the club fulfills the purpose for which it was organized. KI-IS ,CJ-tareiqlz efafiom Gfuf The incessant rumblings of war accompanied by secret pacts, daring diplo- matic maneuvers and great social upheavals caused much agitation among the history students last fall. There was one class in particular which exhibited a very exuberant interest in these affairs. Observing this enthusiasm, Miss Goos- sen suggested the formation of a Foreign Relations Club in order to discuss intel- ligently these situations as well as problems spotlighted by world events. An immediate response was forthcoming and on November twenty-seventh the Foreign Relations Club was organized. Mr. McDonnell, an honorary member, suggested certain topics for discussion and stressed the importance of the Far East in world affairs. However, it was decided that a considerable amount of background material was needed. Therefore, several people gathered information and presented it at the next meeting. Immediately a heated discussion, characteristic of all the meetings, beganf These lively discussions were efficiently conducted, however, by chairman Leo Dentinger and vice-chairman Beatrice Urso, who were ably assisted by secretary Charles Bauer. To facilitate efficient organization, a program committee was appointed to plan future programs. Some of the subjects discussed on the second and fourth Mondays of each month in room 163 were: the United States Consular Service, relations with Japan, history of Finland, present conditions in Finland and the problem of India in the world today. The club was very fortunate in obtaining for one of its meetings a recording of a summary of recent events in Europe as narrated by Elmer Davis. Thus the club members have gained valuable knowl- edge of current problems in this world of chaos and turmoil. They look forward to the continuance of the Foreign Relations Club as an exemplary organization of Kensington High School. KHS Seated:-H. Hedden, L. Metz, M. Farnsworth. Standing E Brmkel, J.

Qgrofkcfiozz Staff The Projection Staff, under the able direction of Miss Grace Heacock, visual aid chairman, has become an established part of the school. The staff is now composed of seventeen girls and boys, who during their free periods operate the machines for all the departments in the school. This year Lawrence Metz was manager of the staff, with Helen Hedden as the co-manager and secretary. Through time and effort, given unselfishly, the staff has established a record of notable services rendered in conjunction with the many activities of the school. Having learned the requisites of a projectionist, the members who passed their examination successfully were licensed by the school, thus qualifying them to operate any of the visual aids indicated on their license. During their train- ing period the staff met every Monday and sometimes oftener in Room 412 under the supervision of Miss Heacock. In May, the staff visited the Spencer Lens Company, where they witnessed the assembling of projectors such as the opaque, strip films and the stereopticon. The visit was of the utmost value to the staff as it helped them to understand to a greater degree the machines they use. Some of the services rendered during the past year by the staff include operation of the public address system for the Freshman Halloween party, the indoor track meet, the junior and Senior Prom. They also supplied music for the Water Carnival. Throughout the year members of the staff operated the projectors for movies in the auditorium as well as doing their regularly assigned work in the classrooms and after school with the various clubs. With the second year of its existence successfully completed, this group is looking forward to a bigger and better staff with greater service in the forth- coming year. KHS - -.1 .1-i-1 Skafgk lub The Sketch Club was organized in October, when Mr. Sauter, the faculty advisor, recognized the need of the art students for outdoor sketching. The pur- pose of the club is to supplement the instruction offered in the art classes and thus to increase the appreciation and ability of the club members. janet Staub, president, Ralph Norton, vice-president and Marcella Grimm, secretary, comprised the officers who conducted the informal gatherings. Mem- bers of the student body acted as models at the meetings. Some excellent demonstrations have been a feature of the clubys program. Mr. Rixford Jennings, prominent local water color artist and Miss jean McKay, well-known sculptor, both of the Art Institute of Buffalo, were welcome visitors. Mr. Jennings made a quick water color portrait of Doris Connelly, a student of Kensington. This demonstration, accompanied by an informal lecture, afforded an excellent opportunity for the club to observe the technique of one of our country's foremost artists. Then Miss McKay made a portrait head in clay of Edward Tambascia, another student. Wfhile explaining different methods of making statues, she converted the head into caricatures of international person- alities. Both of these visits were greatly appreciated by the club members who enjoyed the artists, comments and demonstrations. On Saturday, April twentieth, Mr. Sauter accompanied a small group of club members to the Museum of Natural Science, where they made many interesting sketches. Another field excursion was made on May nrst, when some of the art students spent an afternoon sketching the automobile junk-yard at the quarry on Fillmore Avenue. Many such trips are planned for the future since the club is determined to continue its splendid work next year. KI-IS v 99 1st Row:-T. Hughes, L. Iwanski, E. Saltarelli, T. Fritschi, J. Smith, F.

Scfzofarsfuya fab A little Latin is a dangerous thingf, It seems that the members of the Scholarship Club must have paraphrased the quotation and been frightened by its ominous note, for no group at Kensing- ton High School worked more diligently or more industriously than the twenty- five Juniors and Seniors who comprised this club. Although even before it was organized, Mr. Gleason warned the students that the club was formed for work, not for pleasure, still the boys and girls who were eligible eagerly enrolled. The first meeting was held in April and at that time Leo Dentinger was selected president while Thomas Decker became secre- tary. At all the gatherings the members labored faithfully, translating passages from Cicero's works and learning as much of the grammar of the Latin language as they could. These students were greatly encouraged this year, for two seniors who had been members the previous year had secured scholarships because of their high marks. These seniors, Francis O'Connor and Maryalice Seagrave are now pur- suing courses in the Classical Languages at Canisius College and the University of Buffalo. Perhaps in years to come the students who belonged to the Scholarship Club will not quote this line about the meetings, 'lHaec olim mihi meminisse iuvabit, but they will agree that they were worth while and useful. Because the club has been so successful in its two years of existence, Mr. Gleason has promised to organize a Scholarship Club at any time for students who are anxious to win scholarships by hard work.

Z retry ozzifors One of the most interesting rooms in Kensington High School is the library. Under the able direction of Miss Hartman, the Librarian, and Miss Keiser, the Assistant Librarian, it has become a valuable asset to the student body. The monitors, too, are eager to help the students. The library committee consists of eight senior girls, each of whom works in the library one period a day. It would be interesting to discover what the moni- tors thought of the library and the students who frequent it. Perhaps the follow- ing conversation, which was overheard at a gathering of the monitors, will reveal the answer to this question. After graduation, said Dorothy Askin, I shall miss my job in the library. I have enjoyed it. I have liked working here, toof' agreed Evelyn Chamberland. I'll even miss seeing the downcast faces of the students when I informed them how much they owed on an overdue book. Then Lorraine Foster exclaimed, I won't miss the absent-minded souls who always forgot to put their names and home-rooms on the book cards when they withdrew books! QContinued on page 137D KHS i . -li li-l ill ome colzomics Gfuf Mother, would you please fix this dress for me tonight? I can't seem to straighten it outfi A remark of this kind is usually made by a girl who is old enough to go to high school, but still unable to take proper care of her clothes. However, no such phrase will escape the lips of any member of the Home Economics Club, for among its activities the girls are shown how to make and alter dresses. The girls met the third week of every month in Room 262 to acquire some useful knowledge and also to enjoy themselves. They were assisted and coached by Miss Stoesser, Miss Johnson, Miss Meach and Mrs. Cartwright. Nearly one hundred girls attended the first meeting held in October. At this time, in addition to electing officers, they were entertained by a movie display- ing Mexican arts. The lucky girls who were chosen to represent the club were: Marion Hanley, president, Norma Schmidt, vice-president, and Lois Hoerner, secretary. As the year progressed, the club had many interesting meetings. In Novem- ber, the members were honored by a visit from Miss Tressler, a stylist from the William Hengerer Company who spoke about appropriate and practical styles for school girls. She also gave the girls some excellent suggestions concerning social conduct and personal appearance. On Valentines Day, a party was given in the gymnasium for the members. Then, in April, the girls prepared for the annual fashion show, for they created all the costumes that were displayed. Finally, the girls gave a tea in May and everyone had a delightful time on this occasion. As it has been so beneficial in the last two years, let us hope that the Home Economics Club will continue its fine record in the future. KI-IS 7 M l ii I i . G. McGuire, J. Marbach, R. Denler, B.

The fashion fest was presented by the Home Economics Club, of which Marion Hanley is president, and which is under the direction of Miss Catherine johnson and Miss Elizabeth Meech. Approximately sixty girls appeared in this laudable array of individuality of which the highlight seemed to be the sports outfits. Josephine Moyer appeared in an attractive white pique bathing suit, complete with white beach coat and beach sandals. Gloria McGuire sported a print playsuit, and Betty Klein wore a white, one piece playsuit trimmed in red. Both girls wore anklets and saddle shoes. Looking very trim and debonaire, Lenore Felsman appeared in a dainty pink wool suit accented with powder blue accessories. Marjorie Klink modeled a very becoming light blue wool suit. An impressing variety of afternoon dresses were shown, wherein the colors rose and blue reigned, and rayon print was the popular choice of material. Inspiring dresses for school were of cotton and spun rayon material-and simple patterns. Frivolous and detailed frocks for partying were displayed. A number of cheery housecoats radiating merriment concluded the Post-Easter Parade at Kensington for 1940. KHS 1 ,- 3226 Cgques frikem Turf flies. Hoofs clatter. Past the solemn mansions of Chapin Parkway streaks the vanguard of the Equestrikens with President Dot Gleason astride the noble Charmaine and our sponsor, Mrs. I-leaps, on intemperate O'Reilly i In their wake follows a colorful parade of riders, some galloping bravely, some trotting gracefully, some plodding steadily along. Meanwhile, far in the rear is heard the encouraging, sonorous voice of Mr. Runser, our riding master, known to the members affectionately as joe . Keeping time with his Up-down! Up-down! Up-down! come the straggling novices, bumpety-bumping in perfect unison. This little drama is enacted each Wednesday afternoon during the fall and spring by a lively band of equestriennes, ranging at any given time from ten to forty in number. The Equestrikens aim primarily at expert horsemanship. But, like all aims, this is only an ideal devoutly to be wishedn, and in reality the group feels justly proud on those days when no one has bit the dustn. If, as the saying goes, no one is an accomplished rider before she has been thrown at least three times, then most of Mrs. Heaps' protegees have made remarkable progress! r' Frequently the club is accompanied by members of the faculty who graciously furnish transportation to the stables. Miss Lawler, in particular, has been of inestimable service in this respect. Standing joke of the club is the unrealized sleigh-ride party. In November money was collected, and all arrangements were completed for this festive occa- sion. Longingly we looked for snow, and come it did--during Regents week in january, when the noses of all good Equestrikens were buried in textbooks! Despite all the snow of the succeeding weeks, Wednesdays invariably brought thaws and slush. Equestrikens no longer sing, Wishing Will Make It So. Officers for the year were Dorothy Gleason, president, Esther Schultz, vice- presidentg Ruth Andershott, secretary, and Janet Schell, treasurer. KI-IS 1 iffe fab The Rifle Club is an organization we are sure you would like to know about. On interviewing Mr. john Kelly, advisor, we find that its president is the athletic Frederick Heck, who, together with his assistant, Raymond Castine, manages the club. William Honecker is secretary, while the man who collects the money is Glenn Howard. The membership of the club consists of over thirty active students who meet every Tuesday afternoon in Room 211. On Thursday evenings, this group holds its practice sessions at the rifle range of Ken Foley's sporting shop. Their chief sharpshooter is Earl Horn who never seems to miss. So far Bill Drews and Clinton Gould have shot down four illuminating bulbs at the range by mistake. Up to the present, Fred Heck has not been able to shoot from a prone position because of the difficulty his fellow marksmen have found in getting him to his feet. Perhaps the members have had all these misfortunes because it is their first year of existence. It is also for this same reason that no rille matches have been held with other clubs, but it is hoped that the members will eventually be given plenty of action in this regard. Although they are anxious to compete with other schools, this is not the main purpose of the club. It is the aim of this organization that, after passing rigid preliminary tests, all its members will be enrolled in the National Rifle Associa- tion. Surely, if in the future the club does as well as it has this year, the members will all achieve their purpose and make the students of Kensington High School proud of them. i KHS VIOLINS Irene Adelmann Gail Butler Anthony Competillo, Comer!

After the overture by the orchestra, the heralds, Peter Wfingerter, Ralph Bolton, Robert Johnson, Henry Klingman, William Hutchinson and john Handel, proclaim the birth of the Lord in the melodious strains of Silent Night,', accompanied at the chimes by jack Miller. As the Christmas Spirit, Gerald Bugman, sings out triumphantly O Come All Ye Faithfulu, the rich golden drapes are drawn back, as if they were unfolding heaven itself. A huge Christmas tree, brilliantly lighted, glows in starry wonder. On tiers stand golden-robed and winged angels. Harmoniously they raise their sweet voices in O Holy Nightw and Holiest Night. Two angels, Dolores Nowacki and Eleanor Novy blend their soft voices in a tender duet.

These shepherds, joseph Macini, William Zaepfel, Robert Floss, George Hanzilian, William Drews, Donald Banhalzl Matthew Paske, and William Gregoire, are garbed in bulky animal skins and various-hued head bands and sandals. Each carries his cherished staff and sings exultingly The First Noel. At this time the stage is brilliantly lighted, glorifying the birth of jesus Christ. The mixed chorus, composed of three hundred and fifty students, rejoices in O Little Town of Bethlehemf, A solo, Jesu Bambino, is beautifully presented by the unusually talented Elaine Majchrzak, with a violin obligato by Anthony Competillo. We Three Kings of Orient Are introduces the kings, Donald Schmidle, Donald Hoppa. and Wilbur Schmidle, as they in stately fashion tread down the aisle to the stage, each bearing his gift. Now the chorus presents the Gloria by Mozart. The quartets then render Nazarethl' signifying the true spirit of Christmas. The climax of this magnificent presentation is Handel's Hallelujah sung by the entire cast. Music for the pageant was under the excellent direction of Mrs. Catherine Logan and Mr. William Pinkow, who also conducted the orchestra of eighty students. The pageant was presented for the student body on December twenty- hrst and twenty-second. It was also given for parents and friends on the even- ing of December twenty-second. L KHS f FD .l 6Lq66LlZf 1 M M9 .Miss Glzerry jfossom On May 16 and 17, Kensington High School produced the lirst operetta in its history. This musical production, Miss Cherry Blossomf was staged under the excellent direction of Mr. Pinkow and was enacted by over iifty unusually talented students. The entire cast was selected because of voice and dramatic ability. Marion King magnificently portrayed the title role of Miss Cherry Blossom, while Donald Banhalzl, as her father, Kokemo, displayed his talents as a comedian. Donald A. Miller and Donald Hoppa as the hero and villain, respectively, also won the audience's approval. Other principals in the cast included Lillian Wieser, Jack Hagelberger, Harold Hanover and George Franke. The remaining cast con- sisted of a chorus of Geisha girls and a group of American girls and boys. The play revolves about an American girl born in japan and brought up as a japanese maiden by an innkeeper, Kokemo. When an American touring party visits Kokemo's tea garden, one of the Americans, Jack Smith, falls in love with her. Kokemo, who has already planned on her marrying Togo, a rich politician, is greatly displeased and tries, but in vain, to separate the two lovers. One of the many highlights of the operetta was the dance and the duet by Marion King and Donald A. Miller, stars of the show, as they gracefully glided over the stage, which was adorned with cherry blossoms and japanese lanterns, blending their beautiful voices. Other hit songs which the audience went away humming, were: 'Kokemo's Lament, Down Lover's Lane, and The Game of Love.

The report of the starteris gun sent the Green and Gold Knights into their second season of competition for the Harvard Cup. Piloted by the two old men of the previous year, namely: ldolo Augugliaro Qquarterbackl, and Elmer Mayer facting captainj, the Knights came through for a most success- ful year. Though not having quite enough punch to reach the top, they acquired an honorable sixth place. In the opening game, our team held a powerful Riverside squad scoreless for 59 minutes and 54 seconds, only to give way because of lack of reserve strength. Riverside won, 7-0. The Knights were outscored, but not outplayed. To prove this, they gained their first victory of the season by downing Grover Cleveland 5-0. However, being no exception to the old adage of share and share alike, Kensington had its day of reckoning when it met the strong, veteran team from Hutchinson High School, and lost, 14-0. Nevertheless, this game acted as the lull before the storm, for after two weeks of intensive training the team won a moral victory over their traditional rival, Bennett High School-, with a scoreless tie. This was the only game Bennett did not win on their way to the city championship. The following Saturday, the team displayed the same commendable spirit, but because they did not receive many breaks in the game, they were defeated by McKinley, 6-0. In the final encounter of the season, Kensington finished in a blaze of glory by defeating Lafayette High School, 6-O. Thus, the Kensington Knights completed a season of 2 wins, 3 losses, and 1 tie. This was an excellent record for a team in its second year of scholastic competition. cC07IffI7lI6dZ 012 page 1381 Kl-lS - askefbaff We observed with keen interest the decided improvement in this year's basketball team. Our boys' gallant spirit and determination caused many sports scribes of local newspapers to class us as the Fighting Knights! Preceding the official basketball season, the inter-class basketball league was organized. When all scheduled games had been played, the winning quintet was the sophomore team. Once again Technical offered our first opposition, and we succeeded in nos- ing out our guests by a 25-22 score, with john Galvin accounting for 15 points. In the second game, our traditional rival, Bennett, won a close decision, 32-26 in their gym. johnny Galvin and Frank Sturm collaborated for over half of our points. Nipper Castine entered the lineup, and aided Ken in a 29-27 victory over McKinley. A spirited closing rally almost ensured a victory over East High. We suffered a defeat at the hands of Masten. Though league champions they were unable to halt the accurate shots of George Caros who led the Kens' scoring. In the sixth encounter, with South Park, we lost in an overtime period 32-50 with Tom Vadakin starring. Following Seneca's 51-27 victory We dropped successive contests to Hutch and Lafayette with the Galvin-Castine combination starring in the former. KHS cc . - 1st Row:-M. Kiesling, N. Castine, F.

Sharp- shooting Len Iwanski, a consistent scorer at all times, took the leading role. After dropping a decision to Grover Cleveland with captain john Galvin scoring over half of our points, our boys finally showed their superiority in the Burgard encounter, by conquering the vocationalists in our gym. Although Galvin was again high scorer, the real hero of this contest was Frank Sturm, who played a remarkable defensive game. In the final contest of the season, we played host to Riverside, and again, we were victorious. Tom alias 'lRed Vadakin and joe Benzee, two of Ken- sington's outstanding all-around athletes, scored 24 points in our 45-58 victory. Five of the nine games were very close and with a few lucky breaks we could have finished in the first division. We all owe our thanks to that earnest, hard-working coach Mr. Bergstrom, who with the valuable assistance of manager Mike Calleri turned out a com- mendable basketball team. Kl-IS - - -ll-11 L 1-. .1 i- ross Goiuzfry On Wednesday, October 11, Kensington's speedy cross-country squad, start- ing its second season in Columbia Cup competition, firmly established itself as championship contenders by romping to a decisive victory over Lafayette and Grover Cleveland. Paced by Fran Lemmo, who was the first to cross the finish line, the Knights placed five men within the first six to come within three points of a possible low score. In the second meet with South Park and Masten on Thursday, October 19, Lou Montgomery's charges achieved a perfect score which was the first since 1954. This victory marked the Knights as the outstanding team of the series and indicated they might be the cup-winning team. The Big Five accomplish- ing this feat were: Norm Vester, Tom Vadakin, Ken Parker, Fran Lemmo, and Lorne Smith, who finished in that order. On Thursday, November 2, came the All-High meet. The team of eight men set out in quest of a victory. When the race was over, Kensington was on the top and Ken Parker and Norm Vester had joined the ranks as All-High men with Tom Vadakin, Lorne Smith, and Bob Reis finishing close behind them. Thus ended a great season for the Kensington harriers which will long be remem- bered by all. Major letters were awarded to the following: Dick Anger, captain, Norm Vester, Tom Vadakin, Ken Parker, Fran Lemmo, Bob Reis, Lorne Smith, Harry Knechtel, William Unger, and joe Kemp, manager. The Columbia Cup was presented to the school in a special assembly on Friday, December 8, by Mr. Gordon Streich, Columbia University representative. This marked the beginning of a long list of such awards which are to follow in years to come. With the probable return of most of the team plus the up and coming runners within our school, we look forward to another successful season in Columbia Cup competition with capable Lou Montgomery again at the helm. KHS CROSS COUNTRY A dramatic moment during the race Columbia Alumni presenting the cup. efzilzd ffm Scenes To become a member of our cup-winning Cross Country team required grit and per- severance. Here are some inside flashes on what the boys did and how they felt. The boys were on a strict schedule. Eight to ten hours sleep each night and training seven days a week. fSundays toolj A training table was reserved for the team in the cafeteria at which special diets were served. Tea and toast were O. K,-but not pastry! Puff, puff, one lap less to go, was the refrain that kept popping into the minds of the runners as they raced about Delaware Park. Bulldog Lorne Smith was confident that he would Hnish as one of the first five. After the first lap his bright hopes began to fadeg but in the second he saw three South Park runners on the far side and set out to pass them. He did, coming in eighth, which was very good considering he had been laid up with shin-splints the week before. Big Tom Vadakin, called Red O'Toole had hallucinations, too. He thought he heard his girl in the crowd! Tom says, I was so disappointed by not being one of the first live, that I would rather have been last feightiethj. But he hung on, for the team's and Monty's sake. fC0fztifzzzed on page 144, KI-IS l l gd T 5 WWW WWW! emi When the 1959 Compass went to press, Kensington was preparing to meet Grover Cleveland in their third dual meet. After breaking even in two previous meets, we defeated Grover Cleveland by a score of 91112 to MM. In the fol- lowing All-High meet, we finished fourth with a total of 9M points. jack Field, this year's captain, became the first All-High track man by showing his skill in the high hurdles. As the 1940 season began, the squad showed great promise by defeating Seneca, Burgard, Nichols, and Kenmore in practice meets. A great, all around improvement in strength was shown when we defeated South Park in our first dual meet by a score of 6416 to MQ. The team scored nine firsts out of a pos- sible twelve against the pre-season favorites. The outstanding events were Gerald Stonels showing in the 100 yard dashg Dick Malecki's 11 foot pole vault, which is just 1 foot below the city record, Don Schmidle's speed in the low hurdles just missing the city record by 6! 10 of one second, and jack Field's grace in the high hurdles. In our next meeting against Bennett and Lafayette, we won with a score of 575 to Bennett's 46W and Lafayette's 4. The meet was practically a repeti- tion of our first showing except for George Zimmerman's success in the 220 yard run and freshman Dick Morsheimer's 20 foot broad jump.

All-High winners in this meet were: jack Fields, high hurdles, Dan Schmidle, low hurdles, Norm Vester, the mile, Gerald Stone and George Zimmerman, 220 yard dash, and Richard Malecki, pole vault. Coach Lou Montgomery, who has given his all to make a success of this team, was aided by Albert DeDominicis, the very capable team manager. Mr. Montgomery urges every boy to come out for next year's squad and promises another good team.

It was a bitter, yet a brilliant defeat, an epochal finale to the most exciting series of swim meets in which the Knights have yet participated, and although the hard-working and ambitious swimmers failed to attain their goal, they never- theless chalked up an enviable record. The sound trouncing of six veteran squads by a two-year-old combination delivered in Steamroller fashion made history on the sports pages of the cityls newspapers and the renown which the ace sprinters and divers annexed for their school is something of which the school is properly proud. Eighty-five candidates answered Coach john Warren's first call for team practice. They entered a long and hard practice period which continued through the holiday season and during this long grind the squad narrowed down to 45. On january 18, we defeated East High School by the score of 42-33. Out- standing in this meet was Robert Umfreville's defeat of Victor Seely, the All- High champion of 1939, and the diving of Ernest Kolz. February 8, we defeated Technical 60-15. In this meet our relay team of Martin, Umfreville, Reinhart and Holmwood set a new pool record and James Lawson, a newcomer, won the back stroke event. February 15, Bennett invaded our swimming pool confident of victory but this was soon dispelled when Umfreville won the 40, Duch the breast stroke, Reinhart the 200 and Blewett the dive.

When one considers that training for the Golf Team starts in the Spring, and continues right up to the All-High Meet in the fall, it becomes quite evident that getting to any place of prominence in this sport is attended with a great amount of hard work and long hours of practice, besides expenses for equipment. Due to the demands of many outside activities this year, it was necessary for Mr. Meegan to leave the entire responsibility of bringing the team successfully through the All-High Meet to Mr. Bergstrom. Members of our team, finishing third in the final standings, out of nine schools competing, were Captain Bud Rung, No. 1, jim Mahoney, No. 2, jim Harkins, No. 6. These positions were determined on the basis of preliminary matches with other schools, match play against other members of the Golf Squad, and medal play against par. Prospects for 1940 are very promising. The Golf Club has a total member- ship of 35 and, according to Coach Meegan, five of the members who did not compete this year show great promise of developing into top-flight players. If the manner in which the boys are practicing means anything, we have every reason to believe that 1940 should really see Kensington taking over the leader- ship in this field. Time will prove whether our hopes are too high or we are being too modest. However, win, lose, or draw, we sincerely hope that the best team will win the cup in 1940. KHS lst Row:-J. Hammerl, R.

Frankenburge emzis Supported by a small but capable squad, the Tennis Team enthusiastically entered its 1940 season in the Park Club Cup Inter-High School competition. Last spring, Kensington's first Tennis Team surprised its most optimistic supporters by placing 4th in a held of 10 competing schools. This year, our netmen expect to finish even closer to the top. Our Tennis Team is in the capable hands of its coach, Norman Millard, who is the 1940 Outdoor and Indoor Western New York Tennis Champion. With such a coach, the team has good reason for its high hopes. This year's tennis activities began last fall with the annual Kensington High School Championship Tennis Tournament, which boasted an entry of 32 players. Displaying a high calibre of tennis, Don Borrman and Bud Rung, veteran letter- men of last year's team, emerged into the finals. Don Borrman won the final match in two thrilling sets, 6-4, 6-4, to annex the Kensington High School Tennis Championship. Don received a gold trophy which was presented to him by Mr. McDonnell in a school assembly. Activities did not cease, however, with the end of the tournament. From November to May, when the outdoor season opened, our tennis players practiced at the Dunlop Indoor Tennis Courts. The services of john Wukas, manager, and Mr. Millard were especially appreciated at this time, for they transported the team to its practices. Don Borrman is captain of the Tennis Team, which consists of: Don Borr- man, 1st singles, Bud Rung, 2nd singles, Henry Degener, 3rd singles, Tom Decker and jim Hammerl, lst doubles, with the rest of the doubles burden being shared by Tom Fritschi, George Hanzlian, Bob Wolf, jack Brenner, john Brigante, Norm Dachs, and Red Frankenberger. Such a fine team is certain to win more athletic glory for Kensington. KHS C9f fff'9ff99'fef'M'?-Q3..ai,.zz Results of early practice prompted us to expect great things of our baseball team for 1940, even though we were handicapped by cold and rainy weather and the loss of veteran players. After two weeks of intensive training, Coach Bergstrom placed Kensington's Cornell Cup destiny in the following hands: pitchers, Alfano, Niegsch, Castine and Mumm: catchers, Conway and Pfiefer: infieldersg King, Galvin, Postolese, D'addario and Fitzsimons: outfieldersg Lajoie, Cugini, Caros, Kiesling and Sturm: managers, Diebolt and Ransom. The opening game saw Buddy Castine twirling masterful ball and having his own way against Bennett until shaky fielding forced him to give way to Alfano. Angie also pitched fine ball but again shaky fielding proved disastrous, giving Bennett the final decision 6-5. Hitting power was responsible for smothering Lafayette 13-1 in the next game. Caros and King each collected three hits including a homer and triple respectively, while Alfano kept the opposition well in check allowing only three hits. Riverside proved a bit too much for our boys, taking the next decision 6-1. Catcher Conway, injuring his finger, was forced to give up his duties to freshman Bill Pfeifer who did a fine job. joe Niegsch and Castine collaborated in the following tilt to nose out Grover Cleveland 9-8. D'addario continued his fine hitting, but it was little Freddie Postolese who stole the show. In addition to getting a pair of doubles, one of which scored the tying and winning runs, he also came up with the fielding gem of the season. Witli men on first and second and no outs Freddie jumped high into the air to catch a line drive over second, touch the bag and throw to first base to complete the first triple play in our history. Although Hutchinson and McKinley boast strong teams, we are confident the Knights will come home victorious. Congratulations to Mr. Joyce for his excellent coaching of the pitchers.

It was the third year of inter-class competition and they turned out in great numbers. The Sophomores, juniors and Seniors were organized under the leadership of Miss Otte, while the freshmen were coached by Miss Seymour. Practice periods were held on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school. Among the upperclassmen a plan was evolved whereby temporary class teams were chosen and numbered. These teams played practice games against each other. In these games, among the Seniors, Ruth Howard and Catherine Laney worked up a swift twosome that had all their opponents stumped. Virginia Eckel's guarding and Mary Knobloch's streamlined swiftness kept the juniors in top ranks and among the Sophomores, jane Roob and Doreen Mex proved outstanding. Meanwhile, Miss Seymour coached her Freshman girls in the fundamentals of the game and helped them to overcome their defects. They selected their own teams and played among themselves.

The teachers, determined to make good, came onto the floor looking as if they had just finished eating their Wheaties. During the first half of the game it looked pretty bad for the girls, for Miss Seymour kept intercepting passes and Miss Rich recovered Senior fumbles while on the other side Miss Otte, Miss Tewksbury and Mrs. Heaps were making basket after basket. The score at the end of the half was 10-1 in favor of the Faculty, the 1 point for the seniors being made by Ruth Howard on a free shot. It was at the half that the teachers made a substitution, putting in Miss Bertha Bergstrom, alias Mr. Bergstrom, and La Belle Fatima, alias Mr. Montgomery. They were the prettiest and least skillful players put in the game thus far. They exhibited a wonderful talent for singing and ballet dancing, but it didn't help them much in basketball. Dorothy Heil and Bernice Oaks of the Seniors retaliated the score of the first half with several baskets apiece and the game ended with a score of 19-16 in favor of the victorious Seniors. Among the other teachers who took partlin the event were: Miss Dickman, Miss Hotchkiss, Miss L. Kaufman, Miss Larrison, Miss Lehde, Miss Mack, Miss Steudle, and Miss Walker. Shortly after the Senior-Faculty game and as the last event of the season, the inter- class contests were held. The Seniors were victorious over the Sophomores by a score of 24-10, and the juniors over the Freshmen by a score of 11-2. The Seniors emerged the final champions over the juniors by a score of 16-5.

The customary spirit of friendly rivalry prevailed and although teams had not been selected when The Compass went to press, speculation was rife as to which team would be champion. It can readily be seen that the game of volleyball is one which requires alertness, agility and stamina on the part of the players. Even an audience with an apathy towards athletics must respond to the enthusiasm of the participants.

The teams went through a schedule of games each Tuesday and Thursday. They practiced for efficiency and skill while the Freshmen strived to learn the rules of the game. For faithful practice the girls received Hfty points toward their letter. After this, girls were selected to represent their class teams. The juniors took the lead and went through all competition without a defeat. Following closely were the Sophomores, Seniors and Freshmen. For the second consecutive year the girls of Ken-Hi Have had the chance to obtain twenty-five letter credits through the achievement tests. Most of the girls took part in this sport to help earn credits for their athletic awards, but others played for recreation and enjoyment alone. KHS 'f 3 BASEBALL TEAM 1st row:--M. Hoesterman, J.

Twice a week the girls were seen helping each other to master the technique of hitting, catching and throwing. The Compass went to press before teams were selected so only unofficial information can be given. During practice periods, Catherine Laney led the Seniors while Virginia Eckel took charge of the juniors. The Sophomores practice teams were captained by Lillian Kellermann and Mary Ann Brady. Florence Zaller kept an accurate account of scores while Virginia Eckel or Catherine Laney called the strikes and balls. The Senior and junior teams will be composed of last year's players, but the Sophomores will select their first team. BOWLING Bowling proved to be an exciting and beneficial game at Ken-Hi. For the first time in the school's history the girls were active keglers. Thirty-three girls took part in this game each Wednesday at the alleys on Bailey Avenue. As the year progressed a tournament was started. When the season came to a close the highest girls had averages as follows: MARY ANN BRADY 106 LORRAINE MORLACH 105 SHIRLEY FRANCIS 94 RUTH BAILEY 92 RUTH DONAHUE 85 Many girls received credits for bowling.

After three or four years of hard work, seventeen girl athletes from Kensing- ton High School were presented on the 29th of May with their gold K's. This award is the culmination of participation in after-school sports including captain- ball, basketball, volley ball, hiking, baseball, swimming, tennis, horseback riding, and bowling. Of course, all the girls did not participate in each of these sports in one year, but spread them out over many school semesters. Prior to the final award, the girls had received three letters. The first was a four-inch gold felt K, after they had earned 150 points. Then, in succession, they received the six-inch gold felt K for 150 points, the seven-inch green and gold felt K for the next 100 points, and finally, the small gold pin, signifying another 100 points. The three gym teachers, Miss Otte, Miss Seymour, and Miss Rich, willingly gave much of their time to direct the girls in after-school athletics and for this assistance all the girls are deeply grateful. Girls who are interested in winning the Gold K are advised to begin work in the freshman year, otherwise 200 points must be earned in the senior year, which is admittedly one of the most difficult scholastically. But all who have won the award will testify to the innumerable benefits they received while work- ing towards the award. For actually, it is not work, but rather healthful, stimu- lating play and the fun of keenly contested games. So, come on freshmen, start now! join the group of Gold K winners in your senior year! KHS F 3 Q 11 girls I Swimming Competitive swimming for girls went into high gear in the second semester with ten weeks of intensive training in speed swimming in all styles and diving practice. At the conclusion of this period of hard work-out time trials were held and twenty-eight girls were selected from the large group of candidates. These girls were assigned to various styles of swimming and distances and on June 10th they vied in a well matched and keenly contested finale to the girls' swimming season, the Kensington championship meet. Two picked teams were pitted against each other in this event-the Green team and the Gold team. Marion Hanley captained the Green team and Doris Barnes captained the Gold team. Their contingents battled against each other in six events and winners automatically became members of next year's girls' Varsity team from whom we expect greater things in competition. 5 The competition line-up was as follows: 100 yards crawl: Green team-Marion Hanley, Marcella Staebell, Kay Rose, Gold team-Marcella Grimm, Judy Marbach, Margery Schmidt. 40 yards crawl: Green team-jane Eberlin, Irene Zielinski, Anna Meyer, Gold team- Dorothy Churchill, jean Conrad, Marguerite Snyder. 40 yards breast stroke: Green team-Marion Hanley, Ruth Weigand, Marcella Staebell, Gold team-Doris Barnes, Judy Marbach, Millicent Clarke. 40 yards back stroke: Green team-Rita Reginato, Anna Meyer, Theresa Ernst, Gold team-Patricia Albright, Margery Schmidt, Dorothy Churchill.

KHS - y WATER FOLLIES The performers line up for our photographer. The Water Follies comes to an exciting Hnale. afar Qffies -Amid a tropical setting of palms and gaudy water playthings, the Kensington Mer- maids, attired in dazzling white lastex bathing suits, combined their grace and skill in the natatorial arts in the second Water Follies in Kensington's history. The cast consisted of 86 girl swimmers, who were mostly novices at the beginning of the year. Many hours were spent in the pool where the girls practiced their intricate formations and drills, under the capable direction of Miss Anne M. Mcllhenney, the girls' swimming instructor. Miss Mcllhenney also acted as stage manager and was assisted by Ann Lee, Dorothy Askin, Bernice Oaks, Betty Jean Conrad, Margaret Fenzel and Irene Zielinski. All the formations were done with musical accompaniment. Performing in the more difficult and intricate formations were the star performers who were as follows: Marion Hanley, Judy Marbach, Marcella Grimm, Ruth Bates, Madelyn Zornick, Mildred Snell, Geraldine Hennig, Doris Barnes, Ruth Weigand, Helen Walters, Marie Hirtzel, Ann Lee, Eileen Dearlove and Mae Beck. The stars were featured in three separate water drills: Water waltzing and tandemsg Water Sprites, which consisted of rhythm swimming, surface diving and back porpoise hnningg and White Caps, one of the most difficult stunts in water ballet swimming, featur- ing a quadruple back porpoise formation. Hilarious comedy was furnished by Donald Banhalzl and the burlesque a screwy number in dizzy bathing suits , in which the star performers again shone. Exhibition div- ing was provided by Ruth Weigand, Doris Barnes and Helen Walters. Multi-colored balloons showering over the pool provided the Grand Finale, while a capacity crowd thrilled to its beauty.

Although all did not receive major awards, all do deserve a great amount of credit for their perseverance and loyalty. The most outstanding performers of the season were: Elmer fButchj Mayer, who, through his power at the guard position, succeeded in acquiring for himself a berth on the second All-High team, Idolo Augugliaro, our quarter- back, who ably piloted our team through many difficult situations, Angelo Alfano, our halfback, who picked up many of those necessary yards, Truman Scott, who gained many first downs, and William Qfreshmanj Pfeiffer, our second string quarterback, who showed much promise for future years. He was the only freshman to acquire a major award. The magnificent support our team received from the student body and faculty accounted in no small measure for that fine team spirit which was shown in both victory and defeat. Our attendance was at all times very high, the high- est being 1,637. Mr. McDonnell did his share, as always, by supplying the team with the best possible equipment, and of course, by lending his enthusiastic support at every game. 'lMurph Mineo, our coach, did a most commendable job of training the team in spite of his schedule of teaching gymnastics at Bennett and South Park.
