In this, our 1941 yearbook, we have attempted to show how, in a sense, our school is a training camp in which young people are becoming future responsible citizens. Through the studies and activities pictured here, we are building strong minds and bodies, we are forging a vital link in the chain that will hold America united. Symbolic of the democracy fostered within, the eagle solemnly guards our halls. '70 M Myra Semin for her unfailing devotion and assistance, we are proud to dedicate our 1941 Com' pass. Her sincere and honest analysis of our work and our philosophy of life has aided us immeasurably to overcome the obstacles we have encountered. Display' ing remarkable ability both as a Junior Studyroom teacher and as an English teacher, she exemplines true success. 0 Q 1 7a who, through her priceless advice and skillful guidance has moulded the ideals we now possess as Seniors, we affection' ately dedicate this, our yearbook of 1941. Although the duties of a junior Study' room teacher are many, she wholeheartf edly supports all school activities. Often encouraging our teams on to victory, she has proved herself a true Kensingtonian. V H 6 L, Q, 47mm With patriotism as our theme, it is more than fitting that The Compass should pay tribute to Kensington boys who have enlisted for military service. The democracy of which we write is being well and faithfully served by these boys at camps, naval stations, and marine bases. To the lessons of honor and loyalty learned at Kensington, they are now adding the practical training of a military life. With this invincible combination, they will ably guard the traditions of liberty and justice which make our land a beacon of hope in a war-torn world.

He has elevated our school to a leading position in the city. Our principal has insisted that this year's class, the first to have spent four years in Kensington, be thoroughly grounded in academic subjects. He has urged all students to utilize fully both their inherent talents and existing opportunities. Above all, he has impressed upon us the primary duty of loyalty and service to America. In this, he has afforded us the practical example of his untiring efforts as a member of a local Draft Board. Educator, publicfspirited citizen, friend - iMr. McDonnell has been our inspiration for four years and will continue to be in years to come. Assistant Principal l l J as at 5 l Competent, persevering, and understanding is Mr. John N. Chassin, Kensington High Schools assistant principal. His oiiicial title vvas vvellfbestowed since without his able assistance our daily schedule could not function so smoothly. There are those numerf ous ddd duties requiring energy, knowledge, and patience, which leave! him few free hours to devote to outside interests, but he carr' s on uncomplainingly. In order to achieve his ambition, whi h is to create true patriots worthy of being Kensington gradu- ates Mr. Chassin has worked constantly. His willingness to coo erate with the students' projects and his sage advice are app eciated by all.

It helps to prepare pupils for successful business and professional careers by teaching them to express themselves clearly and correctly. Secondly, by encouraging the reading of literary masterpieces, it gives pupils a cultural background. Every student realizes that the inability to speak correctly is a detrif ment in the business world and a definite social disadvantage. Great emphasis is, therefore, placed upon grammar during the four years English course. Classes are taught sentence construction, pronunciation, and good word usage. Through oral topics, students have an opportunity to practice speaking before a group. They are also taught how to write correct busif ness and social letters. The study of literature is another valuable part of the English course. Each year students read and discuss such classics as Dickens' beloved The Tale of Two Cities , Scott's The Talisman and Shakespeare's great tragedies, Hamlet and L'Macbeth . By arousing an interest in reading, the English department helps pupils to develop a habit that will bring pleasure during leisure hours. All students are now required to take the course in the History of English Literature. From this they learn the development of various liter' ary forms such as the novelg become familiar with the names of famous authors, and learn many interesting facts about their lives and works. This course opens up a whole field of Hne books to be explored as the student's taste in reading develops. A boy's or girl's success in other subjects depends upon his ability to understand what he reads and to express clearly the ideas he has gained from his study. Thus we see the importance of English in our high school course. ewan, Louise F. Belden, B.A. june A. Blair, M.A. Ruth C. Culliton, M.A. Marie C. Curran, M.A. John A. Demerly, B.A. Helen H.

Time for new schedules, new pupils, and new library monitors. The volunteers for this coveted title are many. The lucky nine whose available free time and personal aptitudes fit the duties of an assistant are chosen to form the student library staff for the year. There's fun and profit to be gained while learning the mysterious routine of the library. The familiar trip to the study rooms with library permits usually begins the duties of the hour. From then on, the library monitor may spend her time doing any number of the many tasks which are of real service to the library. Here are a few of the monitors' accomplishments: checking attendance, slipping returned books and placing them on the shelves, writing the overf due reminders for forgetful borrowers, and stamping and preparing new books for the shelves. Finally, during the rush hour after school, there is the necessity of being on hand to speed the departing students by stamping their books for home reading. The following girls, under the direction of Miss Hartman, librarian, and Miss Waters, assistantflibrarian, formed the library student staff this year: Rita Boyle, Irene Brzezicki, Dorothy Cabot, Norma Frey, Marjorie Gordon, Annette LaCopa, Patricia Q'Reilly, Betty Rung, and Jean Watt. These girls learned at first hand the value of Kensington's excellently equipped library. They know from experience how many students make daily use of the wealth of reference material available. The library is an essential factor in the work of every department.

The Compass was, upon its debut in 1938, awarded a blue ribbon which proclaimed it a Hrstfclass publication. Subse' quently The Compass of 1939 was judged the fourth best yearbook entered, while the 1940 Compass captured second place in the Western New York Press Association competition. Thus, an enviable record has been estab' lished, a record that will soon, we hope, culminate in our winning iirst prize, a magnificent cup. This is the goal which the staif of the 1941 Compass has set out to attain. Intent on making The Compass the finest yearbook in New York State, the staff toiled diligently and labored long, lonesome hours, some' times burning the candle not only at both ends but in the middle also! Many of the members collaborated on and helped to stage the Compass Quiz Program which featured Mr. Meegan's drive for subscriptions. Under Miss Belden's and Miss Kammerer's capable guidance the program was so successful that it proved one of the most enjoyable assemblies ever produced at Kensington. The faculty advisors, under the chairmanship of 'Miss Kammerer, offered their sagacious counsel and lent a helping hand to the staff. To them we give our sincere thanks. Mr. Mahoney and his excellent art staff have won the praise of all for their breathtaking, patriotic effects which are so timely. To all who so graciously and unstintingly contributed their invaluf able assistance, the now exhausted editors extend their most hearty appre- ciation.

The Hrst presentation this year was a scene taken from the comedy, First Lady . Rita Tsaconas and Elaine Majchrzak were charming in the leading roles. Next on the boards was our Shakespearean soliloquy contest for which the Misses Frink, Scanlon and Blair were the judges. Irene Drennan and joseph Heavern displayed real talent in their Macbeth speeches. Dorothy Basinski deservedly won the Hrst prize, an attractive marionette made by Robert Knechtelg and Catherine Duggan received the second prize, a copy of the play, Richard III . Our guests left some helpful advice that noticeably improved later activities. While performances of the club continued on schedule, a committee, meeting backstage, selected a comedy, Sauce for the Coslingsu, that was staged April 25 in the auditorium. The cast consisted of Andrea Molnar, Carol Maloney, Doris McGowan, Gretchen Lorke, Edward Garland, Robert Knechtel, and Vincent Galbo. For our own amusement, two delightful sketches, Light and Romantic , with Patricia O'Reilly, Ruth Mitchell, and Lila Capenhurst, and Sasparilla with Rita Rorick, Carol Maloney, Gretchen Lorke, and Corinne Weissleader were staged. These allfstar casts furnished many a merry laugh. The club brought an active season to a close when Dorothy Basinski played her Maurice Evans recordings, soliloquies from Hamlet . Cllicers elected for the year were: president, Catherine Duggan: vice' president, Lila Capenhurstg and Secretary, Edward Carland. iqaaemdlq Natal The past year found Kensington students taking a more active part in the preparation and presentation of assembly programs. In the fall, Senior girls presented an original skit to arouse enthusiasm for the Bennett' Kensington football game. Members of the team were portrayed by girls and given feminine names similar to their own. The delighted audience was entertained further by the cheerleaders. A successful program - for next day an eager crowd cheered the team to victory. For the second year, the Freshmen boys planned the Armistice Day program. They gave original speeches on patriotism and love of country, making us realize how fortunate we are. The audience stood at attention for a moment of silent prayer in commemoration of those who died for America. Everyone participated in the St. Patrick's Day program and joined in singing the lovely ballads of old Ireland. This assembly was particularly gay, since everyone wore a touch of green. With Herman Pease as Professor I. D. Clare and Thomas Decker as jim Nasium, the Compass staff presented a takefoff on a radio quiz, prof gram. Questions were on events and personalities in Kensington. The antics of the judges, particularly Roy Schuchardt and Jerry Glose, were loudly applauded. Compass sales boomed that day! Members of the basketball and swimming teams were rewarded on Boys' Letter Day, April 4th. An enthusiastic audience cheered our first championship swimming team as University of Syracuse alumni presented the cup. Mr. Warren introduced team members and gave interesting highf lights of the meets. Awards were presented by Mr. Bergstrom. Easter was again celebrated by an appropriate musical program. Among the singers participating were Elaine Majchrzak, Rita Baldock, Marion King, Donald Hoppa and Gloria Malotte. Dovis McGowan, Gretchen Lorke, and Irene Drcnnaru in club play if i-. fir .-rfkf..

B.A. Ruth Xwesterman, BA. 1' 6,1 The study of modern and classical languages teaches not only the language itself but also the lives and customs of the people Whose native tongue it was. Our Modern Language Department includes classes in French and German. Miss Tewksbury and Miss Belknap, instructors in French, find much enthusiasm for this romance language among their pupils. German, under the direction of Miss Westerman, ailords a great deal of pleasure as well as scholarly possibilities to its students. The three year courses in French and German teach pupils to reacl, write, and converse in the language. In the Classical Department, Latin is taught by Miss McCarthy, Miss Valente, Mrs. Chalmers, and Mr. Gleason. During their four years study, students learn the value of Latin in developing the mind, improving the memory, and increasing vocabulary. Kensington is one of the few schools where students may learn Greek. The two year course taught by Mr. Gleason is popular with pupils interested in the classics. Mind!! Glult 20 Waench 01446 Marina L' fluid flaench Glad Le Club Francais , as it is officially called, was organized for the year 1940 under the supervision of Miss Belknap. The meetings were arranged for the second Tuesday of each month, to be held in Room 243. The chief aim of our organization is to instill in each member a greater interest in his or her study of the French language. It was formed also to acquaint them with the culture and beauty of France. In the selection of the officers for the year, honors were duly bestowed upon the following members: the president, Joseph Cuginig the vice' president, Vera Sassy and the secretary, Catherine Rose. The termination of scholastic activities last summer did not hinder the participants from collecting bundles of clothing to send to refugees in France. fCo'ntinued on page 1442 Gunmen Glu! The German Club, which met in Room 239, was organized for the purpose of an extensive study of Germany and its language. The meetings were held once every two weeks with alternating social and formal programs. As a topic for a formal meeting, the club studied the music of Franz Schubert, renowned German composer. At another 'interesting formal meeting, Hildegarde Frisch related incidents from her life in Germany just before the present war. At social meetings, the activities of the club were confined to playing games, the favorite being Fruchtkorp and Tier, Vogel, Fisch . For the Christmas entertainment, the members celebrated a German Christmas Eve which included a short play, candle lighting, and refreshments consisting of German sweets. Every program included some of the beautiful German f'COTlflTl1LCCi on page 1441 This club published a newspaper in Latin! Potestne cerne, profulgente die. Attention! Listen! C, say! can you see, by the dawn's early light . . . Clearly and distinctly the sweet strains of our National Anthem were heard resounding through the cor' ridors. In accord with the ideas of preparedness and Americanism, the Lat-in Club students joined in singing patriotic songs translated into Latin. In an attempt to restore the past in our imagination and to demon' strate the influence of the Roman language and customs upon our civilizaf tion, the Latin Club was organized under the direction of Miss McCarthy with the cooperation of Mrs. Chalmers and Miss Valente. Meetings were held every second and fourth Friday of the month and were alternately formal and informal. One of the main attractions this year, as a result of Mr. Sauter's assistance and his sense of humor, was the making of posters which depicted the prevalence of Latin in our language. As another project, a Latin news' paper containing news, odds and ends, and touches of humor here and there, was compiled and edited by club members. That's right, you're wrong! Fierce and vigorous battles were waged in a series of quiz programs to see who could acquire the most points by the end of the year. Of course, the topics dealt with Roman activities, famous Romans, or classic customs. When the Ides of March rolled round, there was scratching of heads and racking of brains as the members tried to recall the important events of Julius Caesar's life. Equally enjoyable was a game similar to Bingo but referred to in Latin as Hic . Officers elected for the year were: Bertha Falk and Thomas Nickson, consulsg and Dorothea Smith, scriba. azfwwud Sc ' Glad If you had wandered into Room 204 almost any Wednesday after school, you would have expected to see the students wearing togas, judging by the volley of Latin that assailed your ears. But on closer examination you would have discovered that the din merely indicated a meeting of the students who comprised the Scholarship Club. This club was unique among all those at Kensington since, as Mr. Gleason warned the students at the first meeting, it was formed for work and not for pleasure. Its aim was to aid members in winning scholarships. Undaunted by the thought of hard work, the industrious Seniors eagerly joined the club and it was unusual for one of them to be absent from a meeting. The works of the great Latin orator, Cicero, were read and discussed at the meetings. When asked what she associated most with the Scholarship Club, Miriam Sess laughingly replied: Herman Pease with his hand up in the air waiting to be called on. He always had the whole line translated before the rest of us had the first word. The meetings were conducted in a very informal manner, each member signifying his desire to translate by raising his hand. A great deal of competition arose, as everyone tried to decipher a Latin line before the others had accomplished this feat. Members of this year's group were optimistic of winning scholarships. They were greatly encouraged by the fact that many who were members of last year's group brought honor and glory to their school by winning scholastic awards. Every member felt, too, a deep sense of appreciation to Mr. Gleason for his diligent aid and his excellent advice. W0rlQ, not pleasure --is their motto. oemig' .YB It is the task of the Social Science Department to instruct the students in the allfimportant subjects of history, economics, economic citizenship and civics. One cannot appreciate contemporary problems without having a knowledge of the social studies. The youth of the nation must understand the past to visualize how they wish to build the future. The students of today will recreate the world and inaugurate a new or improved system. Not every student will gain all possible benefits from his history courses but this training will enable those who have vision and leadership to - accomplish great things. To have a workable Democracy, the youth of the country must be prepared to detect faults and correct them. Intelligent and active particif pation in government is possible only through a trained citizenry. To better conditions of municipal and national governments, it is necessary that the people be interested and wellfinformed as to the workings of these bodies. Students well acquainted with economic problems are capable of formuf lating a sensible public opinion and of voting intelligently. Thus, the study of Civics, Economics, and Economic Citizenship prepares the student for the problems he will face in later life. That history repeats itself has been proven, and we of today can look to the past in our studies of Ancient, Modern and American history as a reference for the thorough comprehension of present conditions in the universe. By providing accurate information concerning both sides of important questions confronting the world of yesterday, history encourages the people never to despair nor to abandon Democracy. Thus the country's youth, well versed in the social subjects and cog' nizant of the responsibility which rests upon them, will advance more conf iidently and intelligently toward a better Democracy and a less belligerent world.

Despite the fact that this is but the third year of Kensington's particif pation in interscholastic debate, our teams have certainly proved equal to the competition. When the call for debaters was made in the fall, only two or three candidates were holdovers from last year. Thus, two comparatively inexperienced squads represented Kensington in the fall debates. On the affirmative team, which lost to South Park by a score of 8 to 7, were Miriam Sess, Virginia Eckel, alternate Arthur Baumeister, and Robert Morgan, the latter alone with any previous experience. The negative team, which won 8 to 7, included Jean Staub, alternate Herman Pease, Tom Decker, with some experience, and John Brigante, a veteran with four debates to his credit. Under the guidance of our hardworking coaches, Miss Lee and Mr. Nugent, these teams distinguished themselves as Kensington's representatives. In the spring debates both teams showed the value of experience, a fact which contributed to their success in winning the picture awarded annually to the school victorious in the greatest number of interscholastic debates. A more confident affirmative team, the same as in the fall, triumphed over Technical High School, 9 to 6, while the negative team with Jean Staub, Herman Pease, Tom Decker, and alternate james Harmon, defeated East by an 8 to 7 count. These victories gave us a record of three debates won and one lost, thus making us champions. The debaters attribute their success to the coaches who unstintingly sacrificed their time for the glory of the school. With this splendid spirit we cannot help but look forward to another successful year. 7mm in ' ' Glad Last fall, when Miss Goossen expressed her desire to continue the International Relations Club founded a year previously, a group of enthusiastic American History students answered her call. This club met every other Friday in Room 163. The thirtyfone boys and girls who comprised the organization chose Herman Pease as chairman and Betty Roehner as secretary. The turmoil in Europe, aid to Britain, and our relations with South America and japan provided a number of interesting topics for discussion by the club. Some of those chosen for detailed analysis were: The Downfall of France , Entangling Alliances with South America , and The Lend' Lease Bill . Since a thorough knowledge of the subject is essential to carry on an intelligent discussion, june Whitehead, Ruth Donohue, June Arnold, Mildred Reis, Dorothy McKenica, Thomas Decker and john Brigante were among those who served on committees for gathering material on the topic to be considered. At each meeting an open discussion of the subject followed the committee's disclosure of the facts they had obtained. A great many of the members assisted both in writing and producing Let Freedom Ring , the final assembly program in our celebration of Bill of Rights Weelc. Through its many activities, the club has ably achieved its purpose by helping members to understand the significance of current events. R. Kauzicxx, J. PAGE, R. BLADIENSPIEL in Colonial America wear amiga nay' The events of Bill of Rights Week were climaxed last February 2.1 by a series of sketches entitled Let Freedom Ring presented under the direc' tion of the Misses Walker, 'Goossen, and Dickman. With the assistance of stage managers Edwin Brinkel, Edward Schaer' tel, and Merle Waters, who controlled the microphone, Thomas Decker served as announcer for the program whose setting was a radio station. Mary Lang and Gretchen Lorke gave us the Greek playlet whose theme was that of a young boy almost forsaking his duty to his country for his own selfish interests. june Whitehead was old Hermione in the Roman sketch with Magdalena Crt as Eurydice and Marjorie Korff as the charming bride-tofbe of Publius Cassius Sardonus. When joseph Heavern as Diggins in the English scene offered snuff to Meldon Jones fHastingsQ and Herman Pease fNevilleJ-then sneezed, the audience laughed with Bridget, the barmaid fDorothy Basinskij who cried, Lord bless ye, sir! A touch of national color was added when Richard Kruzicki brought Ben Franklin to life while conversing with Mrs. Franklin, impersonated by Rita Bladenspiel, and ,loan Page as Mrs. Dickenson. As Abraham Lincoln uttered the immortal words of the Emancipation Proclamation which freed the slaves, Donald Hoppa as Rastus exclaimed, We is free! But Liza played by Elaine Majchrzak, warned them to use their freedom well. There were spirituals and dances by the slaves, led by Marion King, the Harmonica Players, Betty Roehner, Betty Rung and their associates. The viewpoints of refugees from conquered European countries were disclosed by Miriam Sess for Czechoslovakia, Donald Griffin for France, Catherine Duggan, Norwayg joseph Cugini, Poland, and Fern Richards for England.

PEASE The Harmomcrx Pl x in Greek Sketch HUSE, THOMSEN, Pinata The student with a thorough knowledge of mathematics will find it his greatest practical asset in the world of industry today. Because of the huge defense program undertaken by our government, factories are again humming to complete their contracts for war machines and materials. The lack of sufficient skilled, competent workers has proved to be the bottle' neck in many of these plants. Airplanes, ships, guns, and tanks need the skill of an expert mathematician in order that their construction may meet rigid government standards. The army and navy cannot afford to take chances. In precision instruments an error in mathematics might cause a fatality or even the loss of a battle. Therefore, at this time, the student who excels in mathematics has an excellent chance to make practical use of his training. Mathematics has not only practical value but also develops quick and accurate reasoning which is of benefit in all professions and trades. For this reason, every student is obliged to take at least one year of mathematics. This may be General Mathematics, a varied course designed to give a little of both algebra and geometry, or it may be Elementary Algebra, a com' prehensive course in the solution of linear and quadratic equations and the construction of simple graphs and figures. The second year of mathematics takes up the study of Plane Geometry which deals with figures of two dimensions. After this, the student is ready for Intermediate Algebra. All three of these subjects are required in the College Entrance course. Students who continue with higher mathe' matics have an opportunity to learn Plane Trigonometry, Advanced Alge- bra, and Solid Geometry in which they study problems involving logarithms, threefdimensional figures, and ratios and properties of angles. The excellent training received in mathematics courses at Kensington will undoubtedly prove the basis for many successful careers among our graduates. elwaa, Agnes Creahan, MA Martin M.

No, it isn't readings at the stock market nor bidding at an auction. It's just the members of Kensington's Slide Rule Club trying to reach an answer to one of the intricate problems contributed by the members. The club, meeting on alternate Thursdays under the sponsorship of Mr. Larrabee in Room 104, started this year with each member making his own slide rule out of specially graphed logarithm paper. Then followed meetings in which trick problems and hard examples met in physics and mathematics classes were tackled in friendly rivalry by the club. At some of the meetings, the sextant was used to measure the school chimney and distant objects whose height it was impossible to find with a tapefmeasure. When members reached proficiency in the use of the slide rule, club officers were chosen. The president, Richard Roehmholdt, won his office by completing a test in the shortest time and with the highest score. The other officers, elected by popular ballot were: Francis Halter, vicefpresif dentg and Arnold Woefel, secretary. If you are interested in mathematicsand find pleasure in twisting your brain around puzzling problems, be sure to join the Slide Rule Club next year!

Rosettie, B.S. Lewis L. Smith, B.S. Genevieve R. Steffan, LL.B Preparing students for a business career is the principal aim of Kensington's Commercial Department. Hence, courses are planned with a view to giving the student as much practical experience as possible. Secre' tarial Practice classes receive actual training in clerical and stenographic work by typing letters, stencils, and reports for other departments in the school. The typing of the yearbook, after school hours, is the largest and most important project undertaken by members of these classes. Mimeof graphing of songs, programs, and classwork outlines is done by Gffice Practice classes. These projects besides giving the students actual experience are an invaluable help in school activities. Typing and shorthand are the basis of preparation for future com' mercial positions. In the Senior year, Secretarial Practice reviews previous studies and improves skill in shorthand and typing, while Cffice Practice consists of the operation of office machinery. In the latter course, the school's excellent equipment is a valuable asset for students learn to operate such complicated machines as the mimeograph, the comptometer, and the dictaphone. Detailed Bling, and mail, telephone, and telegraph services are continued from Introduction to Business, a Freshman course. Many students in other courses choose business subjects as electives. Typing, in particular, will prove useful to any graduate, especially one who contemplates entering college, and its popularity as an elective is unequalled! Training in filing is also of practical value to every student for it teaches the systematic safefkeepfng of receipts, bills, and other important documents. The number of Kensington students interested in commercial work is indicated by the large enrollment in these courses, but whatever their future positions may be, commercial students will find their training a most valuable asset. Gam ' fb 30 C' Glad The Commerce Club, which boasted one of the largest memberships of all clubs at Kensington, was made up of students enrolled in the Business and Secretarial courses. Mr. Rosettie served as faculty advisor, assisted by other members of the commercial department. Meetings, which were held once a month, were devoted chiefly to discussions of various business topics. Outstanding among the activities of the club are its annual talks by representatives of commercial and industrial firms. This year, at the February meeting, Mr. Shilt, Supervisor of Business Education for the City of Buffalo, brought Mr. Browser, sales manager of the Gregg Publish- ing Company, to speak to the members. His talk on how to make a favorable impression while being interviewed for a position was full of helpful advice. Mrs. Borneman, executive secretary of the Van Raalte Company of North Tonawanda, was the guest of honor at the March meeting and gave a most interesting talk. From these speakers the club obtained much valuable information about the commercial world. Members of the club elected the following boys and girls to serve as oiiicers for the year: Frances Belle, presidentg Doris Miller, vice- presidentg and Yolanda Lazzari, secretary, Kensington students who plan a business career szafgagvzwe To the energetic and untiring efforts of Mr. Meegan and Mr. Haggerty, the 1941 Compass owes its very existence. Under their capable direction, the subscription and advertising staffs achieved recordfbreaking results. The ad staff, tirelessly soliciting the city's merchants, achieved their goal of 25 pages, a new high in our history. Subscription representatives and home' room teachers pushed the sales campaign to 2,000, thus assuring the success of The Compass. The unseen, but allfessential efforts of Mrs. Martin's secretarial staff, deserve the highest praise. To them we owe the flawlessly typed copy that makes printers happy and advisors free from worry!

Wall General Science, Physics, and Chemistry are the subjects included in the Science Department. Every student is required to take General Science while Physics and Chemistry are studied by those students more interested in the higher sciences. Mrs. Eardman, Miss Kauffman, Miss Wall and Miss Heacock teach General Science to the Freshman. The interest of this subject is greatly added to by the use of visual aids and demonstrations. This subject is one which will prove very helpful in later life in as much as the principles of ventilation, food essentials, and plant life are studied. Physics which is generally taken in the junior year is taught by Mr. Mountain, Mr. Haynes, and Mr. Fogel. Most of the students End the two periods spent each week in the laboratory very interesting and helpful. The writing up of the laboratory report for each experiment however are not so enjoyable to the students. Physics includes the study of machines, electricity, light and sound. The mighty Seniors are enrolled in the Chemistry classes of Mr. Alb' ing and Mr. Rutstein. The time spent by the amateur chemists in the chemical laboratory helps make them understand the mysteries of chem' istry. Here they can see what actually happens in many chemical reactions. The knowlege obtained in the study of this subject can be applied in num- erous ways to life. The study of baking powder and washing soda will be very useful when they have homes of their own while the boys will find their knowlege of mettalurgy invaluable to them in later life. Science is playing a more important part in our lives year by year. Our defense program is very dependent on its soldiers of science. The man in the street owes his health and even his high standard of living to science. Since science is so necessary the study of it should be and is being encourf aged in our High School. '7lze5' cefbe 34 Senior Science Club Kensington's science clubs were organized in two groups this year to meet the varying interests of the members who range from Freshmen to Seniors. The Junior Science Club for Freshmen was under the capable guidance of Mrs. Eardman and Miss Kauffman. Gloria Musselman served as presif dent, while Betty Kamman was chosen vicefpresident. Irene Meyers acted as secretary. The club provided not only vital information for its members, but much entertainment. At one meeting the program committee sponsored a quiz game with all questions pertaining to science. When the participants' knowledge failed, someone in the audience came to the rescue. Prizes were given to the best contestants and also to the person in the audience who answered the most questions. At another meeting, Mr. Albing gave an interesting and educational talk on trees. Much credit is due to the publicity committee whose decorative posters brought many eager Freshmen to the club's meetings. fCo'ntinued on page 14942 Science Club members studied Nature.

Jfameg 'fb The Home Economics Department does much to provide a wellf rounded life for the school girl, business girl, future homemaker, and citizen. As a result of the training in domestic sciences, girls gain a wider sphere of usefulness, a deeper and more sympathetic understanding of their associates. The teachers of Home Economics are largely responsible for the success of this branch of education. The pupils in Miss Stoesser's cooking and home management classes heartily agree that it is one of the most interesting periods of the day. Her cheerful manner wins the confidence of the many girls who seek her advice about their problems. Miss Nesper, new at Kensington this year, has won the admiration of the girls with her untiring efforts and patience. In connection with the regular work, a class in Red Cross Nursing is a popular project. Miss Meach and Miss johnson of the sewing department teach the history of clothing as well as making clothes. Selection of materials and patterns to suit the personality of the individual are part of their careful supervision. Because of the assistance of the sewing teachers and their classes, the Christmas pageant and operettas have been beautifully costumed. fConti'nued on pdge l4Oj Club members are a zliated with the Red Cross emu., Helen M.

The girls of Kensington, realizing that appearances are important, at' tended the Home Economics Club meetings in large numbers to receive practical advice and suggestions about selffimprovement. Under the supervision of Miss Stoesser, Miss Meach, Miss johnson, and Miss Nesper, meetings were held every third Wednesday. At the election, the following officers were chosen: Norma Schmid, president, Lois Hoerner, vicefpresidentg and Dorothy Dehlinger, secretary. In the fall, Miss Mandel gave an instructive and entertaining demon' stration of the history of umbrellas. Miss Barry of New York presented a fall and spring fashion show. Clothes of appropriate and practical design for high school girls were modeled by members of the Home Economics classes. In February, a party was held. Peppy games, for which prizes were awarded, were played and refreshments were served. Club members know that the homcmakers of tomorrow must be pre' pared for the work which will be expected of them. A recent movie pref sented by the club stressed the importance of vitamins and minerals in our diet. Other educational movies depicting citrus fruits, meats, and the his' tory of canned goods were enjoyed at various meetings. Another highlight of the year was the talk on the work of the Better Business Bureau. Few club members realized the services this organization renders consumers until they heard the lecture and were permitted to ask questions. Finally, at the annual May tea, plans were made to complete the project on Christmas boxes. In cooperation with the Junior Red Cross, with which the club has affiliated, these boxes will be sent to children in other lands. Members agree that this has been one of the most successful years of interesting activity in the history of the Home Economics Club. alfa-meg ' Glad Mr. Mahoneys class studies poster design. 14111225 The art department, undoubtedly one of the most active in the school, is under the direction of Mr. Mahoney and Mr. Sauter. In addition to the regular subjects of Design, Representation, Mechanical Drawing, and History of Art, numerous extra-curricular activities keep Rooms 237 and 250 humming with busy students. These afterfschool interests include the illustrations for the yearbook, the design and construction of scenery for the annual operetta, and the production of posters for school clubs and plays. The progress made by art students during their fourfyear course is best illustrated by the number of Seniors who, this year, have won local and national honors, including a scholarship and several cash awards, in poster contests or by submitting portfolios of their work. Art courses are planned to provide students with practical training which will help to prepare them for such careers as commercial advertising and illustrating. Classes develop and direct the intrinsic talents of the students. But regardless of whether pupils choose art as their profession, all of them will Hnd their lives enriched by the knowledge gained in art classes. Slade!! Mr Sautefs pupils exhibit their work Glad Since only a limited number could be accommodated in the Sketch Club, members were elected or invited. Meetings were held every week with dues of tive cents used for refreshments such as ice cream, candy, cider, and doughnuts. First activity of the year was the 'iGet Acquaintedn party at which Dorothy Drath won the prize for the most unusual name card. During Mr. Kelly's illness, a comic scrapbook was presented to him by the club. Christ' mas cards were also printed from a linoleum block. Mr. McDonnell and several teachers attended the Christmas party. Officers were Reno Fusani, president, Donald Ryberg, vicefpresidentg janet Klein, secretaryg and Sidney Clough, treasurer. Several of our attracf tive models were Marion King, Lloyd Nelson, Ruby Zimmerman in an Hawaiian costume, and Miss Maloney as a Red Cross nurse.

Such projects as the Christmas Pageant, the annual operetta, and the spring concert, not only show the progress made by music students but rank as outf standing events eagerly anticipated by the whole school. Students in the Music course begin with Rudiments of Music, a study of scale writing, musical terms, and melodic earftraining.

Two major groups, the full chorus and the principal parts, together with the orchesf tra, composed the pageant. The full chorus, consisting of a soprano, alto, bass, and tenor section, contained some three hundred stu' dents who sang traditional Christmas songs. While the cast spent endless hours re' hearsing, the Home Economics Department under the direction of Miss Meach, worked diligently preparing last year's costumes and making new ones. Mr. Smith, who served as Stage Manager, supervised the decor' ating of the twentyffive foot Christmas tree.

Under the able direction of Mr. Pinkow, assisted by Miss Townsend, a remarkable cast of 70 students were combined into this delightful musical comedy. Kensington's Prima Donna, Marion King, por' trayed The Belle in a charming manner with Donald A. Ivliller playing the love interest. Donald Hoppa was the villain. Comedy was rendered by Charles Hughes in his jovial role of the Irishman and jane Preston as the excitable governess. Other prinf cipals in the cast included: Elaine Majchrzak, Mat' thew Paske, Rita Baldock, George Hanzlian, Jack Hagelberger, Richard Averill, Doris Lenz, Hermina Hatten, james Harmon, and Charles Wells. Their excellent performances were a result of Mix Strick- land's careful coaching. Singing and dancing was furnished by a chorus of Senors and Senoritas. The latest rhumba and Conga steps were featured by a B special group of dancers trained by Miss Otte while a chorus of Marines performed many intricate march' ing drills learned from Mr. Montgomery. The story deals with Hesta time in Barcelona and the day of the classic bull fight. Margarita, daughter of a wealthy plantation owner, renews a friendship with an American Marine Officer. He learns that she is to be involved in an unhanpy marriage arranged by her parents. An exciting plot unfolds the tale of political corruption in which Margarita's fiance is implicated, leading up to a climax in which The Belle of Barcelona becomes an American citizen . . . by marriage. Beautiful costumes supervised by Miss Meach and exceptional scenery designed by Mr. Sauter and Mr. Miller, highlighted the production. Stage man' agement was under the direction of Mr. Smith. Truly an outstanding operetta, The Belle of Bar' celona will long remain in the memory of those who saw it. ss as 144151 Mr Maller aids a student The Industrial Arts are those occupations by which changes are made in the forms of materials to increase their values for home usage. In the school classes, the materials generally worked with are wood, leather, and metals. A study of these occupations is useful and interesting for it broadens the pupil's range of practical knowledge and develops skill and eiliciency in the use of tools and materials. Added to these benefits, it serves as a means of recreation and develops a sense of art. After completing this study, the pupil Hnds himself much more capable of dealing with daily problems. Because some of the students have had no previous experience in manual training, advanced projects must be preceded by simpler problems. Generally, the boys start by being taught to make scale plans for their future undertakings. These are so selected that the first ones require the use of only the simplest tools and materials. Gradually, the diiliculty of the work is increased and more skill is required for its completion. The pupils slowly advance until they are working with power tools. Skill in the use of these tools and precision in calculation and accomplishment is stressed in every phase of this training. The student in this way becomes well acquainted with the industrial occupations. As a result of studying Industrial Arts, the pupil has considerably increased the range of his practical information. He will be able to under' stand differences in the quality, workmanship, and design of furniture. The student also will have a clearer insight into the industrial world and usually is prompted to continue his interest and observe the improvements made in industry. He thus becomes a thinker as well as a doer, and a thinker who is a doer is a useful citizen. Ghm Glad The Chess Club, whose faculty advisor was the helpful Mr. Millard, met every Wednesday afternoon in Room 162. Forty members were enrolled in the club this year, twentyfiive of whom were beginners. The officers were: president, Wesley Feylg vicefpresident, Dorothy Beenaug secretary, Robert Johnson, treasurer, james Willadsen. During the first month, the fundamental ideas of chess were taught to the beginners, while experienced members played practice games. A Christmas tournament was held in which all members, old and new, participated. Dorothy Beenau, the winner, was awarded a very good chess set, and Esther Safraniec, the runnerfup, received a twofpound box of candy. The school championship tournament, in which thirtyftwo members took part was won by Dorothy Beenau. A beautiful silver trophy was presented to her in the assembly by Mr. McDonnell. The runner'up, James Willadsen, was rewarded with a smaller trophy. The competitive members of the club were: Dorothy Beenau, James Willadsen, Robert Johnson, Rob' ert Triller, Esther Safraniec, Kenneth janish, Herman Linderman, Wesley Feyl, james Toolen, David Nagel, Ralph Swanson and Carl Conrad. Cur first match with Seneca ended with a tie of Zh points, while the second match was won by Kensington, the score being 4 to 1. The result of the first Burgard match was 4 to 2 in Ken's favor, the score at the end of the second match, 5 to 0 in favor of Kensington. Mr. Millard suggests the Chess Club for developing ability to con' centrate, to think logically, and to use the imagination with more effective- ness. Chess is one of the few games which do not depend on luck and brawn but on brains and wit! The clubs champion won L1 silver trophy The stuff shows some of its equipment One of the most valuable organizations at Kensington is the Projection Staff directed by Miss Heacock who has trained the members to use the school's intricate sound and visual aid equipment. Under student leaders, Helen Hedden and Edwin Brinkel, the statins untiring eilorts contributed greatly to the success of many assemblies and parties, During the Teachers' Convention a Water Carnival was presented at which the staff managed musical transcriptions for the many featured acts. These recordings also added to the festivities at the Freshmen girls Hallo' we'en party. At the Junior and Senior Proms, a selected member of the staff operated the portable public address system, thus adding to the enjoyment of all who attended. Sound equipment was also frequently used by study and home room teachers for the Wednesday guidance programs. Assisting in the presentation of the History and the Compass plays, supposedly in the settings of radio studios, were members of the stall acting as stagehands, They helped to add realism to the scenes by the use of the stage public address system. Staff members were also at work behind stage during school pageants and debates. Through the use of silent and sound films, the work of various clubs, as well as of science and economic geography classes, has been greatly facilitated. The art classes also took advantage of the many slides and pictures available. These were shown through the stereopticon and opaque projectors The willingness of Projection Staff members to give their time unstintf ingly during study periods and after school won the admiration of all who used their services. This is a group of which Kensington may well be proud. . . Nfiss Nfcllhe-nney plays Neptune in the School for Fishes, Mala adm The girlsl swimming season at Kensington came to a fitting climax when the capable water womenl' presented their third annual show, The A. B. Seas , May 19th and 20th. Distinctly different from last year's show, the carnival was a typical water pageant, dialogue and all. The pool was transformed into an under f water school room with the walls hedecked with curious replicas of aquatic life. The girls' competent swimming instructor, Miss Anne Mcllhenney, directed the show and played the role of the school master. Musical accompaniment was furnished by the school orchestra under the able direction of Mr. Pinkow. The mermaids were classed according to their swimming abilities into the first, second, and third grades, the latter group containing the more skilled performers.

Your sheltered life at Kensington has ended and you have received your diplomas. Perhaps you have paused a moment to wonder, with startling concern, at how quickly the present has thrust the past be' hind you. june twentyfthird has become an allfimportant day in the lives of all of you. It marked the completion of four years of preparation for the future and opened to you a broad vista of life into adulthood. The happif ness and success of your years to come will be measured by your will to translate into action the ideals and principles of life which dominated your life at school. Your commencement has secured for you the great heritage of every seriousfminded American youth-a high school education. You have come to know, and we trust to respect, the ideals for which society yearns. The application of these ideals to your dealings with your fellow' men will 611 the world with love, eliminate hate, and restore peace in the hearts of men. Enthusiastic, strong, impatient, you seniors go forth to meet the challenge. Your departure marks a note both of sadness and of happiness. But it will always be that way where friends must walk along different paths of life. Nevertheless, like those before you, you will take with you somethng that neither time nor distance can destroy-memories of your years at Kensington. So be loyal to your heritage, to your friends, to your community, to your nation, and you will enjoy the glories of our great democracy. Sincerely yours, It is on this evening alone, the sunset of our high school careers, that we realize how swiftly our years at Kensington have slipped into the past. Only yesterday, we entered the portals of this institution widefeyed fresh' men, tonight, a tinge of regret distracts from the happiness in our hearts upon the deseition of our alma mater. Truly enjoyable have been our experiences in this school which has given us the equipment for an auspicious entrance into the world of life. Nothing remains for us to say but a few farewells and the expression of our profound gratitude for everything which has been done to facilitate our stay at Kensington. Primarily, the senior class of 1941, wishes to express its deepest appref ciation to our principal Mr. McDonnell, who, throughout our entire four years here, has done everything in his power to increase our happiness and to mould us into worthy citizens of our great country. His leadership and his untiring efforts on our behalf will serve as models to us as we under' take the pursuit of our livelihoods. A most sincere token of thanks we also extend to Mr. Chassin for his paternal guidance. Few are the leaders of young high school men and women who possess higher ideals than do these two men. In our faculty, we have found friends whom we will long remember, friends who have helped us to master the intricacies of our courses. With' out their numerous sacrihces in our interest, success could not have been attained. Were it not for their untiring assistance and patient guidance, many of us would not be here tonight. The expression of our gratitude is an insignificant part of the debt owed them. At this moment within the depths of our hearts there is a persistent longing to remain at Kensington, where the most enjoyable years of our lives have been spent. We are now entering a greedy world where force and cunning are pitted against desperation in a terrific struggle for domif nation of civilizations political and economic structure. Yet in our hearts, there is a herce determination to triumph, come what may, over all obstacles. Our preparation has been adequate, though difficult. We are resolved to attain a true happiness which a great part of the world never achieves. We shall not forget the burden of upholding American integrity and ideals throughout our lives. This is our responsibility, its fulfillment is our un' alterable aim. This, the class of 1941, is the Hrst truly representative Kensington group. It has endeavored to sustain a fine reputation for sportsmanship and scholarship alike. Let us hope that future classes will pursue the same aims and bring to Kensington ever greater glory. Before you are the men and women of tomorrow. You may be confif dent that they will be free thinking and broad minded Americans who will find success in the game of life. JOHN BRIGANTE.. 440-In 4 September 22, 1937! Do you remember that great occasion? On X that day, a group of several hundred bewildered Freshmen took their 47, ,Aw . . . mb places in the classrooms of the new Kensington High School, a school Q,.v'N'A-NXHA' which offered countless opportunities to its student body. Uncon' 3,5 V cerned, these green Freshmen wandered in a fog, which was never QRN ' V , quite dispelled say the teachers. The willful, woeful Arnold Woelfel, V ,ga-'V as well as many others, rushed through the corridors in an attempt to 'R .ae Y find Room 402. I wonder why he never found it. Amidst the rather atrocious odors of the science classes, we see Herbert Hollingsworth X c and Charles Stotz obediently saluting their commander, the noble f' Colonel Albing, who impressively delivers his noteworthy proverb- l rl 3 What you are to be, you are now becoming. With the presenta- A xg., . tion of the Christmas Pageant, the younger set of Kensington's pigftailed misses were allowed to display their musical ability fNorma Bowers and Marion King successfully depicting the part of the 5 6 - ' falling angels .j Miss Johnson valiantly calmed the mischievous X f V' 3 boys of 306, in spite of the conduct of William Bibby, George Kraus, and quickfwitted Dewey Witt, while the disappointed Freshmen girls of 466 strained their ears to hear the philosophical comments of their leader, Mr. McDonnell, through the loudfspeaker in 462. Miss Hea' cock's artistic display of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs created quite a .fashion at Kensingf ton . . . especially since Arthur Baumeister was referred to as Sleepy. Upon the close of our first session of cramming for finals, the beknickered Richard Zeh proudly ascended the stairs to the assembly platform to receive his hardfeamed Freshman medal. Thus ended the initial school year. With ruddy faces and brush hair cuts, the once bewildered Freshmen began their second year at the Old Grind. The nowfsophisticated Sophomores were welcomed with folded arms by the despairing faculty. Already, our famous intellects, Ruth Donohue and Robert Wolf, were worrying about those muchfanticipated final exams. The gridiron took its place in the activities of the student body. The Sophomores, especially our future athletes, Joe Benzee and Mike Cugini, were amazed at the prowess of our football team, which won one game out of six. Little did we know that we would one day Beat Bennett! Mr. Pinkow, Kensington's own maes' tro, succexfully sought out the unusual talent of some of our students and applied this ability to the presentation of a Spring Concert. Among its soloists, we End Anthony Kreisler Comf petillo, who displayed his talent as a violinist, and those golden-voiced sopranos, Marion King and Elaine Majchrzak. Enviously, the Sophomore boys, particularly Eddie Hillman and James Toolen, studied about those ancient heroes of chivalrous times. Grief stricken mathematicians, especially Arthur II May and Richard Myszewski, pondered over geometry proofs. Elaine Majchrzak brought glory to Kensington when she finished in second place in cityfwide singing competition. Again the fear of the dear old finals formed a heavy cloud over the now bookworm Sophomore class. Well, they all pushed through, except for a few who adopted the fivefyear plan. Despite the scholastic rivalry, Ruth Donohue was the victor, winning the scholastic medal for 1939. Casting their books aside, the sophisticated Sophomores left school with another summer vacation ahead of them. 1L Welcome, you proud Juniors! But don't be too proud to resume your very industrious work. As we visit the classrooms, we End those scholastic rivals, Dorothy McKenica and John Brigante, struggling through a session of modern history with the helpful aid of Mr. Millard's admonition: Let's get smart, . . . as though they -X r-4-- needed to! Ego, qui Catilinam non laudavi sounds like Mildred Reis and Marjorie Korfl' jabbering away at Cicero. Do you recall that famous answer of Janet Schell's a plus x times b plus y equals c '7a 2. .. . minus z to one of Miss Creahan's insolvable problems? Some of our major letter men, George Kraus and Big Bill Torge, adapted themselves to the art of making touchdowns-did they? Joe Benzee, Tom Decker and Len Iwanski won honors at basketball-perhaps they trained on the breakfast of champions . On the courts we find john Brigante and Dorothy Beenau playing a lovefset game of tennis. AllfHigh man, Ken Parker, won second place in cityfwide competition in crossfcountry, an unsurpassed record at Ken. Through the support of Howard Steinke and Don Schmidle, we were successful in winning the Scalp and Blade Trophy fwho did they scalp, anywayffj The organization of the Junior Class in May gave the proud juniors a chance to display their voting ability. They elected capable and efficient officers: friendly Eddie Shine, president, popular Marion Dorothy McKenica, secretary, and Pease. Soon after, marshals, Lura chosen.

However, in our midst, we noticed the absence of some of our most beloved classmates, Don Banhalzl, Mike Calleri, Tom Vadakin and James Driscoll, gone for a year of military training. Let's take another look at the classrooms. In the history room, we ind Norma Oefner, giving her meek reply to sympathetic Miss Goossen, I have it almost fin- ishedfl Therels Miss Belden in despair trying to answer some of Irving Osofsky's unanswerable questions. Here, we encounter Matthew Paske in another of his argumentative moods trying to silence Magdalena Ort's gift of gab . The football team had a more successful year with Ed. Shine and the Hearys on the team. The defeat of the Orangemen in a 2f0 score, surpassed any feat of the year. The three little fishes, Al1fHigh men John Blewett, Al Reinhart and Bob Weidemer, brought honor to Kensington when they won the Syracuse Cup, thus bringing the total of our trophies to three. Among the girl athletes, we Hnd Alice Wilbert, janet Klein, Dorothy Laney, and others working for their gold awards. With the establishment of Bill of Rights Week , patriotic fervor reigned throughout Kensington. Let Freedom Ring, an historical play, presented by the history . h M classes, created appreciation of their great country among the ' ' ' A ' 'll' R student body. Mr. McDonnell's clear exposition of the subject l' -- ' inspired the student body and made them realize the importance of the Bill of Rights . Inspired by patriotism, June Dixon won hon' orable mention in the What 1 Owe America Contest. To help that canny contriver of Compass contributions, Mr. Meegan, the Seniors sponsored a quiz program a la Kay Kyser, with Roy Schuchardt and Mildred Schreyer among the learned judges. Then, for the first time in the history of Kensington, the debate team won a double victory, through the great oratory of our Senior debaters, Virginia Eckel, Miriam Sess, Thomas Decker, Herman Pease and john Brigante. Also among the personalities of our class, we have such dramatists as Catherine fHepburnj Duggan and Margery fI'Iamletl Flanders. Kensington is indeed fortunate in having in its midst, a young artist, Erma Francis, whose diligent application of the paint brush was awarded first prize in the national Meat and the Nation contest. The organization of the Senior Class was a great event for the smiling Seniors. The sports enthusiasts, Tom Decker and Gloria Q J EY ', 1 f syxgxuple.

We, the Senior Class of Kensington High School, on this sixth day of june in the year of our Lord 1941, supposedly being of sound mind and body, do ordain and establish this, our last will and testament. This will is illegal unless carried out under the following conditions: FIRST: The junior Class must conduct themselves in an orderly and sophisticated manner, as the Senior Class of 1941 did by refusing to wash dishes for Mr. Albing after school, combing hair in study hall, dreading the closing of marks, thinking up excuses to get out of lab early, and sneaking rides on the elevator. SECOND: The Senior Class of 1942 must attain the brilliance scholastically, athletically, musically, oratorically, artistically, and dramatically that the present Senior Class has main' tained for the last four years. THIRD: Providing the above rules are lived up to, we the Senior Class do bequeath to the Juniors these, our most prized possessions: Lura Hager's sophistication to Duke Bartoo. Curly Blewett's technique of attracting the fairer sex to Dicky Harris. Betty Thurnherr's knitting to Marve Kiesling. joe Heavern's Mud Slinging' column to Bob Knechtel. We also give with due feeling of sorrow: Jennie Pappafagos' gym suit to Nipper Castine and Eddie Shine's personality plus to Rita McCluskey Qas though she needs itj. Ginny Eckel's athletic leadership to Mary Ann Brady. Dick Averill's jalopy to whoever wants it. We unwillingly give: Don Lawson's poetry to john Galvin and Marion King's part in the operetta to Yehudi . Norbert Stumm's love of Latin Q1 to Jean Cray and Roy Schuchardt's slapfstick comedy to George D'addario. Erma Francis' paint brush fbut not her S2001 to Reno Fusani. George Hanzlian's tennis racket to Jack Horton. jane Busch's prized red hair to Stanley Duch. Robert-A. Wolf to the junior girls. Johnny Heffley's knickers to Howard Ling. Ralph Prieur's bouncing baton to Glenn Ertell. Arthur Baumeisterls gracefulness to Betty Dekdebrum and Tom Decker's brush hair cuts to Janet Staub. As you pass out we pass on: Lila Capcnhurst's 173 bowling score to Paul Benson. Carlton Schutt's flea to Derith Frey and Doris Barnes' diving ability to Sis Frey. Bill Torge's physique to Jean Popp and john Brigante's love of books to Joe Mancini. Irving Csofsky's airplanes to Jim Harmon.

Under the capable supervision of Mr. Bergstrom, l s Mr. Montgomery, and Mr. Warreim, our M W 'SZ5i jd5ZZlg0lmwood boys are gaining something more than mere schoolfbook knowledge. They are being trained for life, not only physically, but also mentally. The physical benefits derived are selffevident, but it is the mental training acquired which is meritorious. Kensington boys are impressed with the ideals of good sportsmanship and clean living. To be able to withstand the disappointment of stinging defeat, to learn cooperation with one's fellowmen-these are the valuable lessons taught by our Physical Education instructors. Left--Mr. Montgomery watches Richard Hein at track practice Right- Mr. BCTQSKTUYTI talks basketball with james Landxlzeft 4 Fight eaml'--and make it loudd Inspired by their new grid mentor, Mr. Bergstrom, the Kensington eleven entered the 1941 season with energy and determination. The Knights journeyed to Riverside to tackle the Frontiers in their initial encounter. After an intense tussle, both teams finally crossed the goal line within the last two minutes. However, because of a sucf cessful conversion on the part of Riverside, we suffered a 7f6 setback, Mike Cugini and Angie Alfano shared the limelight for their sparkling defensive play. The Hutchinson Brownies afforded our second opposition. Although the opposing grid stars were evenly matched, we dropped a decision in what may be classed as the season's tough break game. But we were completely outfclassed in the McKinley game, losing '21-O. In the Macks we saw an aggregation which coupled brawn and brains. The fourth game told the same story, but the persevering spirit of our men never died down. After four successive defeats, our fighting Knights turned the tables and scored an upset victory over our traditional rival, Bennett. For three quarters, Hugh Lipsius' trained toe kept the pigskin in enemy territory and it wasn't until the third quarter that the blow was smote. On an attempted doubleelateral play, Bennett's mighty Vince Tozzo was literally smothered by the Knights front wall, behind his own goal line. This was the play which scored two points for Kensington and defeated our arclvrival. This mighty victory inspired our team with conhden-ce and the next victim was Grover Cleveland. This game, played in a raging snowfstorm, saw the touchdown twins, Pfeiffer and Castineg Marvel Man Cuginig reliable Angie Alfanog and the entire stone wall line perform so nobly that the result was another Kensington victory. The team owes its commendable 1941 showing to Coach Bergstrom's excellent training and to the unflagging assistance of team manager, George D'addario. Finally, congratulations to tackle Hugh Lipsius, Kensington's AllfHigh representative. The team that beat Bennett EWAII-High winners riser Medals Chuck Kline lSouth Park? -.f ., , VQ., X iii..

The victory by the Knights marked the 14th high school track title for their coach, Lou Mont- gomery.

ANNIE DODGE LANGE DETROIT, May '29 UPi.-Mrs. Annie Laurine MacDonald Dodge Lange, widow of Daniel G. Dodge, heir to an automobile fortune, is suing her second hus- band, Dr. William A. Lange, for divorce. The suit was filed April 18 against Dr. Lange, Detroit plastic surgeon, and was sup- pressed by the Wayne County clerk, it was disclosed Thursday. The papers on file show no details of the action except that Dr. Lange was served with a summons April 23. Dr. Lange announced two days ago that he had been sworn into the Army as a captain and would leave within two weeks. The grounds alleged were not disclosed. Transportation Rail-Marine-Motor-Air Workers to Charter Bus Thirty workers at the Curtiss- Wright Cheektowaga plant who live in the area south of Buffalo have signed up on a plan to charter a bus to take to and from work. The bus, if it can be ob- tained, will start at South Park Avenue and Ridge Road and will run to the plant via South Park, Woodside, Potters Road, Orchard Park Road, Harlem Road and Gen- esee Street.

It sold Mrs. Wilda Adair likes dining rooms and is happy her home has one. But it was the kitchen which attracted and held her enthusiastic attention and eventually prompted the Adairs to leave their Angola lakeside home. Leave it to a homemaker and a mother to notice the kitchen, Mrs. Adair smiled. We spend so much time there that it certainfy should be one of the most com- fortable and attractive rooms in the house. You know, it really was the kitchen's snack bar which led us to sign on the dotted line. The snack bar makes a perfectly ideal division between the sink cup- boards and the breakfast set. I like the idea much better than a regular breakfast nook. My husband and I always have breakfast at the snack bar instead of using the breakfast furniture. That leaves the table clear for giv- ing our baby his morning bath. And the snack bar is such a con- venient place for having things at hand.

But it was the team of the future namely, the Freshmen, who emerged victors in the pre-season intrafmural contests. The Varsity season had an auspicious beginning with our defeat of Lafayette, 5288. The Galvin-Castine duo made an early entrance in the scoring column by annexing 12 points each. A twofpoint hearvbreaker was lost to Hutchinson 24-22, with Nipper Castine adding 10 more points to his score. Kensington suffered its Hrst real setback at the hands of Masten's defending champions, although Galvin managed to break through for 13 points. The boys dropped a close decision to McKinley, but quickly returned to the winning column with a 34f23 victory over Riverside. john and Nip collaborated for 15 points. In a capacityfiilled gym, Kensington fought tenaciously against a strong Bennett aggregation and earnestly strove for victory in a spirited closing rally, but the Orangemen left with a 24721 victory. Our next defeat was in the game with Grover Cleveland, despite the efforts of Len Iwanski and George D'addario. When the Knights journeyed to Burgard, they dominated the spotlight with a 28f25 conquest over their rivals. In a closely contested encounter, Emerson, league champions, triumphed over our boys, and in like manner edged a 24f22 conquest. In both games the scoring was evenly divided and defensive skill marked the issue. The most exciting encounter was the Seneca contest, in which Captain Frank Sturm, our stellar defensive ace, in the closing seconds of play, toed the foul line and whisked the ball through the meshes for a 30f29 victory. This winning pace was fC'ontinued on page 1'i9j Kevfs basketball team poses after an exciting season Ei' Ft' ia? Lo ne Snlth Kenneth Parker The close of the 1940 season found Kensington's Cross Country team with another brilliant record and a second Leg on the Columbia Cup. First in our series of victories was the meet against South Park in which they scored 47 points and Masten 81 against our low score of 24. The next run was even more sensational. We had a perfect score of 15 against Bennetts 61 and Riverside's 82 points. Lorne Smith, Francis Lemmo, Harry Knechtel, Al Duttweiler and Jim Kuhn were the triumphant quintet who showed much team work in finishing iirst, second, third, fourth, and Hfth respectively. These meets, although not included toward the Columbia Cup, gave us a good idea of Kensington's strength. On the day of the A1lfHigh Meet, Kensington outfclassed the other nine high schools to take an easy Hrst place with an exceptional score of Om cupfwi11ni'ng team 1 Emu Goanhq Mr. Bevst and Mr. lggulden present he cup 40 points against Bennett's 85-which won second place for the latter. Lorne Smith, who easily won both of his dual meets, was in first place. Lorne was the hrst of Mr. Montgomery's runners to achieve this record, although Monty has had many cupfwinning teams. Kenneth Parker crossed the line in fourth place, making him AllfHigh for two consecutive years. Harry Knechtel did splendid work in taking sixth place. Jim Kuhn finished in fourteenth position, but was Kensingf ton's fourth man over the line, almost settling the title then. Jack Haber' rnan, our fifth man, was fifteenth in the race, thus rounding out our chamf pionship team. Louis BRACHMAN, Manager. LEFT: Francis Lemma RIGHT: james Kuhn .

That is the story of Kensington's mermen which came to a brilliant conclusion when the Knights beat South Park's crack team, churning their way to the title by soundly trouncing every competitor they met in the Syracuse Cup competition. Three years of hard work, of grim determination, of devotion and loyalty between coach and team, brought to Kensington a coveted cup' won by some of the most exciting and brilliant swimming seen in the history of this competition. Instead of being disheartenecl by our single point loss of the year before, the swimming Knights took 1940's disappointment and fashioned it into 1941's triumph. On December Hrst, 65 candidates reported to Coach Warren, and after several weeks of hard practice the Green and Gold team launched its series of victories by defeating FosdickfMasten 5 7 to 18. Uur next meet, with East, ended with another onefsided score when we romped off with tive first places. At Lafayette, we bettered this re-cord, taking seven out of eight events. On March 6th, we proved this was no accident by again taking seven out of eight events. The next was a sweet victory, An excited crowd watched Ken's victory J S . fa? -as af -as the defeat of our rivals, Bennett, by the over' j whelming tally of S5 to 20. Technical and Rivf ersicle valiantly tried to stem the big Green tide, but were washed under in that order. Then came our big day. Cn March 27th, we journeyed to South Park to meet the defending champions in their own pool. Duch, Seelbach, Holmwood, Reinhart, Blewett, Umfreville, the Schwippert brothers, and Weidenier, showed such a barrage of speed, fight, and courage, that the Sparks were swept out from under their chamf pionship crown. This sensational victory clinched the title for us and there remained only the spectacular AllfHigh meet to wind up a thrilling season. That meet, on April 3rd, made local swimming history. Cur lads harvested 42 hardfearned points, turning back the challenges of 96 swimmers, the pick of all the other high schools. Stanley Duch brought additional glory to Kensington by equalling the city record for the 100 yard breast stroke, We now sadly bid farewell to Kensington's first championship swim team, for we lose almost all of our Varsity Veterans at graduation. Next season we look to Reilly, Flaherty, Maciejewski, Saunders, Bossinger, Duch, Szymanski, Donahue, and Moycc to uphold our honor and strive for thc continued success of Kensington. ' GORDON WALDHAUSER, Manager. Star performers in the All-High meet We receive the Syracuse Cup Track With a smaller turnout than in previous years and the loss of many majorfletter mcn through graduation, Mr. Montgomery faced the problem of building a new, inexperienced team into championship material. In the iirst dual meet, Kensington, presenting several new prospects, turned in a line victory over East, 58 to 49. Ed Hillman and Herb Dechert emerged as the new contenders for the lowfhurdles crown, vacated by Don Schmidle, now a highfhurdler. jim Kuhn in the half-mile, Bob Morsheimer in the broadjump, and Dick Hein in the pole vault, contributed performances which were highly encouraging. Unfortunately Jerry Stone, AllfHigh man and one of the team's mainstays, pulled a leg muscle and was forced to remain inactive for the remainder of the season. Next Kensington competed against Riverside and Bennett. Again Hillman and Dechert placed first and second in the low hurles event, while Kuhn, transferred to the mile, established himself as a dennite threat for the AllfHigh meet. Warren Langman, versatile freshman, revealed remarkable sprinting ability in capturing second place in the 220-yard dash. If Bill Seelbach's performance is any criterion, he should make good competition for halffmilers of other schools. Although trailing behind in the iirst few events, Kensington closed with a rush to take the meet. Then came the clash with our chief rival, South Park. Although the score was South Park 50, Kensington 45, and Hutchinson 13, Monty was unalarmed for he was still experimenting with his line-up. He discovered in Warren Langman the team's best quartermiler. In this engagement, Kensington qualiied seven men in Held events for the AllfHigh meet, three in the pole vault, Hein, Maciejewski, and Danitzg two in the shotfput Rankin and Hoppag and two in the broadfjump, Morsheimer and Haberman. Although edged out by South Park, Mr. Montgomery is confident that we will turn the tables on them in the AllfHigh meet. Monty's track men line up for the plzotogmpher 12 Standing--C. Zlu., 1.

HANZLIAN, J LAIN 7em4i4 Under the capable guidance of Mr. Millard, this year's tennis organization confidently entered interscholastic competition with hopes of surpassing last season's record of thirty matches won against only fifteen lost. Stellar performers of 1940 were Thomas Fritschi and George Hanzlian who were interlocked in a threcfway tie for the honorary position of AllfHigh first doubles. The enthusiasm of the 1941 squad led them to play on the Dunlop indoor tennis courts throughout the winter. A great deal of match competition was gained during February, March, and April, for an intra-squad tennis league was organized with scheduled sets of matches played each week. The position in which the boys iinished determined their rank on the varsity team. After weeks of keen contest, Tom Decker edged out John Brigante for first singles position and the team captaincy. With John in second place, Bob Wolf emerged guardian of the third singles throne. After the doubles teams were organized, james Hammerl and George Hanzlian proved their superiority by winning first doubles position. This racket duet may easily prove the best in the Clarke Cup series. james Lain and Norman Dachs formed the second doubles team. Manager John Horton and his teamfmate Clarence Zill furnish high hopes for next year's varsity. The varsity team auspiciously opened the season by subduing Technical 5-O. Lafayette was the Knights' second victim by a 30. score and in the third meet our net men blanked Hutchinson SfO. Our next opponent, East, drew a 3f2 verdict, but we quickly resumed our winning stride by trouncing Riverside '5fO. As The Compass goes to press, our top-flight varsity team leads the league-with high hopes of climbing to the championship. THOMAS DECKER, Captain . Mr. Meegan coaches a team member An ambitious, hardfworking, persevering group of boys who receive little publicity composes Kensingtons Golf Team. The members spend several months of' the year in practicing a game which requires the utmost in timing and coordination. Developing these skills was a task which the boys did well. Of the many reasons which may cause a team to miss first place in competition one is overfconfidence. This may have been the case with our Golf Team. Coming through the preliminary matches without defeat evidently gave the boys a false sense of security. In the All'High Meet, teams that had been previously defeated placed ahead of Kensington which finished in fourth place. This was a shock to all concerned as indications had pointed to a position not lower than second. However, the defeat was a valuable lesson in estimating an opponent and taught our boys that a team should never relax its efforts in inter-scholastic competition. The All'High Team, coached by Mr. Meegan, was composed of Robert Yetzer, Captain Robert McMahon, Marvin Kiesling, Edward Baldock, Arthur Eberharclt, and Frank Sarver who finished in the meet, in that order. The manager of the team, and a very good one, was james Toolen. The major letter award recipients were: Robert Yetzer, Edward Baldock, Robert McMahon, Arthur Eberhardt, Marvin Kiesling, and james Toolen. Those receiving squad awards were: Arthur Miller, Roger Ransom, Frank Sarver, Francis Hessler, and Charles Hughes. i'Let's give a Whistle Boom! B G. King and J. Galvin in action Under the a-ble guidance of their coach, Mr. Bergstrom, this year's baseball team promises to be the best in Kensingtiorfs history. Assisting Mr. Bergstrom were Louis Dieboldt and Roger Ransom, co-managersg Vernon Koch, transportation managerg Nelson Welch and Harold Daniels, assistant managers. Among the veterans on the team, with a year or more of experience were George D'addario, George King, Fred Postolese, Marvin Kiesling, john Galvin and Norman Castine. Gpening the season, the Knights travelled to Reese Park, where they defeated a hard-fighting Lafayette team by the score of 8 to 3. This game was highlighted by the fine offensive and defensive playing of Postolese, Galvin, King and D'addario, and the fivefhit pitching of Nipper Castine. In the second encounter, Kensington played McKinley at Delaware Park, where the Knights triumphed by 6 to 3. Although this game started as a pitchers' battle, the fifth inning started a series of hits by Galvin, King, Castine and Pfeifer, followed by a home run from Marve Kiesling. Praise also is due John McCarthy, 15 fyearfold Freshman, who allowed only five scattered hits and three lone runs for a splendid pitching record. This victory gave us an undisputed lead in the League I. The following week we met the previously undefeated Riverside nine. This game was won by Nipper Castine, who hurled a onefhit, nofrun game and topped that off with a home run. As The Compass goes to press, the team has a record of three games won and none lostg is tied for first place in League I, and has an excellent chance to finish near, if not on top of the League. ROGER RANsoM, Manager. 'Team members will try for top place in the League ,. -- V - -- ----- -1-' -- -Y '-11111 ui Miss Orrr G -ddr . . Directed by Misses Otte, Seymour, and Rich, gymnasium instructors, and Miss Ivlcllhenney, swimming teacher, Kensington girls participated in a diversified physical education program. During the two weekly gym periods, athletic ability is developed in drills on parallel bars, rings, and ladders. Physical Fitness tests measure the girls' arm, leg, and hack strength, lung capacity, and hand grip. Directed exercises then strengthen muscles and improve posture, Other periods are devoted to teaching the girls games such as basketball and volleyball. In the last quarter, the girls learned the proper rhythm and newest steps in modern dancing. Swimming, required of all freshmen, becomes an elective after the first year. Miss McIlhenney's success with beginners is apparent in the Water Carnival when novice swimmers have an opportunity to show their skill. The progress of advanced swimf iners is illustrated by the intricate water drills and formations they are able to execute. Miss Sermons Miss RICH Miss lVlClLHENNii 1 X 128 Our Gold- K's we have proudly won after four years of athletic fu Gale! u ll On June 12, thirty-seven Senior girls, the largest group in the history of Kensington, received their Gold K awards climaxing four years of diligent work. Necessary credits were gained through participation in volley ball, tennis, basketball, horseback riding, hiking, and swimming, all of which were afterfschool sports. Preceding the final award of a Gold K, each girl had been presented with three letters. The Freshman letter, consisting of a fourfinch gold felt K, represented a total of 150 points. For the next 15 0 points, they received a sixfinch K. For an additional 100 points a sevenfinch green and gold felt K was awarded. The gold pin signifies the final 100 points the recipients earned. Miss Otte, Miss Rich, and Miss Seymour faithfully guided the girls' athletics in the gym while Miss Mcllhenney, our capable swimming instructor, coached all the swimmers. The Equatrikens were accompanied by Mrs. Heaps, and Miss Lawler acted as advisor of the Freshmen riding club. To all, the girls express deep appreciation for their tireless efforts. Though it is possible to earn a Gold K in three years, Freshmen girls are advised to begin work immediately to avoid the arduous task of earning 200 points in the Sophomore year. Yet, athletics do not interfere with scholastic activities. All winners of this award will stoutly maintain that though sports form a recreation, they foster good health, fair play, and the spirit of cooperation. FRESHMAN TEAM Standing-N. Rcginato, E.

This is a sport which demands skill, strategy and stamina from all its players, and thoroughly prepares them for the coming basketball season. Soon after the practices began, forty of the girls dropped out. Four attended enough of the games to receive twentyfiive credits, while seventyfnine received fifty points. Forty-six received sixty points and six received Seventy points. In other words, one hundred and thirtyffive girls got letter credits through volleyball. After practices were completed, the girls took part in games supervised by Miss Otte and Miss Seymour. Through these games the major teams were more 'slr wks ess 111 ' easily chosen. Each team had fifteen regular players and three substitutes. After these teams were selected the major combats were waged. In the first games the Freshmen defeated the Sophomores 1534, but lost the return game 1345. The Seniors defeated the Freshmen hy three points. The juniors also defeated them 154. The upper classmen came through with flying colors. All through the practices and games the girls were taught by their instructors to put into use all the rules they knew concerning serving, receiving and returning the ball. Yet by overwhelming odds the greatest and most important rule was sportsmanship. It was a characteristic which prevailed whenever these players met. All who took part in this great game should he congratulated, for they formed a definite part of the school's activities. They have built up a reputation for themselves and their school by their scholastic and social developments. JUNIOR TEAM Standing- M. Beiswanger, D. Mex. E. Sartori, J. Roob, L. Weitzsacker, I.

One hundred and ninetyfseven enthusiastic girls turned out for practice when the season began. The Freshmen met in the boys' gym under the supervision of Miss Seymourg while Miss Otte trained the Sophomores and upperfclassmen. juniors and Seniors strove to improve their skill, speed and endurance. Sophomores built up their players on ideas of teamwork and cooperation. Meanwhile, the Freshmen were learning the rules and methods of the game. Then came the selection of teams. Among the Seniors, the fourfsome consisting of Dorothy Laney, Virginia Eckel, Ruth Miller and Mary jane Knobloch, won many of the games by their smooth teamwork. The juniors selected their team by a voting method. Eileen Grimm was welcomed back on the team after a year's absence because is is hal 5 5 of a broken arm. ln the new lineup for the Sophomores were Jeanne Crowley and Arlene Noller, who used their skill and proficiency to advance their team. After a long debate, the Freshmen picked their team-but they showed good judgment for the Freshmen finished in second place. In the major games, the Freshmen defeated the Juniors 4-2, and the Sophomores 12f8g but lost to the Seniors 5-12. The Sophomores lost to the juniors 4f6 and to the Seniors 3f13. The juniors lost to the Seniors 5f12. These scores gave the Seniors first place in the interfclass competitiong the Freshmen were second, followed by the juniors, and last the Sophomores. Some of the girls played basketball to earn credits for their letterg others played for recreationg but all found physical improvement and pleasure as a result of this activity. MARY ANN BRADY.

About thirty girls responded early this spring and practiced under the direction of Miss Otte. All helped construct courts for their practice periods, meanwhile learn- ing the fundamental rules of the game. Then they began to polish their style and technique. Since this was the first year, no tournament was held. However, the practices proved that many of the girls were skilled at the game. The Bailey sisters foiled all their opponents by returning the birdie in a high, vmdde, and handsome manner. june Dixon and Eileen Goodwin proved their winning ability. In these same sessions Norma Herr and Mary Ann Brady took advantage of every popfup by a smash return. Other girls who took part in both doubles and singles games were June Harris, Mary Louise Barber, Carol Frame, Rita Rorick, and Nancy Colby. 8 About 120 enthusiastic girls, all interested in bowling and all competing for high scores, met every Monday afternoon. Doris Barnes was elected President, Eileen Goodwin, VicefPresiclentg Concetta Galbo, Secretary, and June Dixon, Treasurer. At the first meeting the girls, most of whom had never bowled before, averaged between seventyfflve and one hundred. Miss Otte arranged for an interesting discussion of -bowling and the girls were taught some of the fundamentals of the game. Miss Otte, Miss Seymour, and Miss Rich, all bowled with the girls, helping them with encouragement and advice. At the end of the season, Lila Capenhurst had the highest score and received a silver trophy. Mary Ann Brady was presented with an award for the highest average. hal The Tumbling Club shows its skill Eadedall The athletic program was brought to a close with our national game-Baseball. Seven'ty'five girls responded when the meeting was called in April, These ambitious athletes were divided into five teams and taught the fundamental rules of the game by Miss Seymour. Then she taught an adequate system of scoring. Scorefkeepers and umpires were then appointed. Arlene Noller, Marcella Staebell, Ethel David, Agnes Kraus, Rose Cosmano and Jane Schmitt were masters at the art of scoring while Virginia Eckel, Mae Beck and Mary Ann Brady lost friends and influenced people through what they thought was excellent work as umpires. Each Tuesday and Wednesday four games were played in preparation for the finals. The first home run was made by Virginia Eckel. All the players received credits toward their letter after the season was over. The Compass went to press before the major teams were selected so the final outcome of the games cannot be given. i When Miss Seymour organized a tumbling group for Freshmen and Sophomorcs, these classes responded with enthusiasm. At the practice periods, participants were divided into squads, who chose a leader to assist them in the various stunts. The leaders were: Mae Beck, Alva Hauser, Dorothy Monk, Eleanor Sess, and Dorothy Berg. The girls strove to develop grace and agility by perfecting old and attempting new stunts. They enjoyed piling on top of one another to build a pyramid, which often toppled over on its foundation. Twenty-five points were awarded for attending the practices and twentydive additional points were given if the girl completed the following aims: forward roll, backbend, cartfwheels, and three optionals such as couple stunts or tricks done singu- larly. Most of the girls took part in tumbling in order to help earn sufficient points for their athletic awards, but some joined only for recreation. l g n ' V Y- -'W'-W - .lv --5-nga. .. -1-...YY-F Miss Mcllhenney and members of the team Intrafmurals staged an enthusiastic comeback when the girls' after-school swimming classes at Kensington began their program of interclass racing early in March. Many weeks devoted to tireless training under Miss Mcllhenneyls capable instruction, preceded the day of the first race. After a number of highly contested events held to decide the school champions, the Senior group managed to triumph. The mermaids who participated in these splash fests were then singled out according to their times and later composed into the Green and Gold teams. An exciting duel meet was then held on April 25 th, with the Gold team emerging victorious with 28 points against the 25 counters of the Green team.

S425 HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT fContinufed from page 36j Every year many girls enroll in the Home Economics course with the intention of continuing their education to become dieticians, teachers, demonstrators, or specialists in other fields. Others choose cooking or sewing as an elective. The first year is divided into tenfweek courses on child care, interior decoration, cooking, and sewing. Home Economics II classes are devoted entirely to cooking. Here girls learn to purchase food wisely and plan well balanced meals. All Home Economics students agree that they have gained knowledge which will be beneficial in the future.

The officers later chose Dot McKenica and Donald Hoppa marshals. The greatest occasion of the high school occurred June 6th, the SENIOR PROM. But, alas! the thoughts of the final, final exams haunted the poor Seniors. American History, Creek, Latin, quizzes, tests-what menaces! We looked forward with much anticipation to another cram session. Even though Kensington is familiarly referred to as the old grind , we will, in future years, often turn back the pages of time, with fond remembrance of our experiences in this great school of ours. JUNE WHITEHEAD, HARLEN RuNYoN. SCIENCE CLUB fContimted from page 3'ij Faculty advisors, for the Senior Science Club were Mr. Rutstein, Mr. Fogel, Mr. Mountain, Mr. Haynes, and Mr. Albing. Most of the members were Seniors enrolled in the Science course. This group planned a radio program which was broadcast in April. The script was the original work of mem-bers. Tours through some of the various industrial organizations in Buffalo such as the Standard Oil Company and the Filtration Plant were a feature of the club's activities. Harry Nolan, president of the club, gave a demonstration in the use of the spectoscope. He also planned several field trips. Other ofhcers were: vice-president, Irene Zielinskig Secretary, jean Whitingg treasurer, Norman Hodgeg and custodian, William Pring. The members of both the Junior and Senior groups were given an increased interest in science. They found and saw many exciting things they had never known before. Thus the activities of the science clubs proved an asset in helping members to understand the complex world of nature. 149 Compliments of THE WAGON WHEEL ROLLER RINK 3-411 BAILEY AVE. at Highgate Open Nightly and Sat. and Sim.

After the preliminaries fwhich include encouraging beginners to mount from a boxj everyone is soon in formation on the trail. The cheerful procession trots along behind the Historical Building, across the picturesque wooden bridge, through Chapin Parkway to Gates Circle, and back again. The better riders aboard Charmaine, O'Reilley, and Ink, to mention a few, take the lead with beginners on milder steeds in the rear. Mrs, Heaps, our faculty advisor, and Mr. Runser, the instructor, are always on hand to offer praise to skillful riders and encouragement to beginners. With Dorothy Gleason as president, the girls have spurred themselves to greater glory, and the club has completed its third year without a serious mishap. The only worry is curbing the enthusiastic spirit of the EquestrifKens to diminish the number of those who want to ride. The facilities limit this number to about forty. Other officers who helped to make this organization such a great success are Betty Rung, vicefpresidentg Dorothy Cabot, secretary, and Dorothy Basinski, treasurer.

Have you ever met someone going down the hall and later seen the same person emerging from a room at the opposite end of the building? Well, perhaps the soluf tion to your problem lies in the fact that we have eleven sets of twins at Kensington. The only difference in the appearance of Betty and Bernice Habermann is the color of their standup hair ribbons. Both Betty, who is assistant manager for the yearbook in 406, and her sister are honor' roll students. The Beebe twins, Marion and Marjorie, also hail from Room 406. The blonde Donohue twins not only play the piano but also sing. Dorothy and Dechantal correspond with high students in the United States, Canada, Hawaii, and Ireland. John and jesse Colvin, the freshman lookfalikes are outstanding because of FORD MERCURY O'NEILL MOTOR CORP. Superlative Service Parts 1790 MAIN STREET their red hair. Rollerskating and dancing are the favorite pastimes of the shy, quiet Hutton twins, Edna and Grace. It is with great difficulty that anyone can distinguish between Doris and Dorothy Schaefer. Whenever you go into 206, you will un' doubtedly ind either Thomas or Donald Nickson selling tickets for some school activity. Donn is constantly striving to get ahead of Tom on the honor roll but usually loses by a fraction of a point. Ruth and Marjorie Bailey, who received their junior letters, like to play badminton and basketball and enjoy bowling. Both are good students and Marge was on the Claims Committee on HifY Day. The Staubs, one of our most popular pair of twins, are noted for their harmon- izing. Jeanne sold tickets for the operetta while Janet was responsible for the 1002: record of yearbook sales in Room 243. Both girls went out for debate. The football and track teams were fortunate enough to have as members jack and Ed Heary. Swimming and writing poetry take up some of the time of the Lawson twins, Don and jimmy . Now do you Wonder why you sometimes saw doublev? It wasn't the afterfeffects of trying to do both your History and English book reports the night before they were due-it was only the Kensington twins.
