Such a relationship will prove a powerful force for free- dom, and will insure a peace rich with happiness and justice for the peoples of the earth. To aid their efforts in winning the War and to guarantee a more perfect peace, the rank and file of citizens must become interested in shaking hands across the Hemisphere. The Compass of 1942 records Kensington's part in the struggle for victory and the furthering of Latin American friendships: the training of sound minds and strong bodiesg the sacrifices to aid our fighting forces, and the Willingness to share America in friendliness for the forging of a better World.

We are again in peril and again Americans are rising to meet the foe. The entire nation has put its shoulder to the wheel and everyone is sharing in the fight to preserve our democratic ideals. The first work Kensington students undertook in the defense of our country was the sale of war savings stamps and bonds. The entire student body has co-op- erated in making the campaign a success. A 'real incen- tive in this Work was the visit in January of the lovely Hollywood star, Miss Dorothy Lamour, Who inspired the students to buy still more bonds and stamps. Said Miss Lamour: ulf other schools respond With the same Hne spirit of patriotism, I know that our boys are going to have all the material they need to win this war. Pur- chases rose rapidly as a result of the star's visit. At another assembly, a group of' Seniors presented a sketch emphasizing the benefits to the individual and to Flag bearer Car0lB0rSCha1 the nation from the purchase of stamps and bonds. At Refugee: Helen Falk the end of the play, Mr. McDonnell presented His Honor, Mayor Joseph J. Kelly, whose sincere and stirring talk really drove home the ideals and spirits of the assembly. Several weeks later, Mr. Kenneth Piper, chief of the Buffalo branch of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, explained how the F.B.l. operates and what boys interested in joining it must do to prepare themselves for such Work. Mr. Piper also described the horror and devastation of the bomb- ing raids on London. His vivid and dramatic descriptions made us determined to do our share in preventing such disaster from striking our country.

At that time, Mr. Paul Nugent, a lieutenant in the Reserve Ollicers Corps, was Called to the service of his country. ln his honor, the orchestra and A Capella choir gave a program of patriotic songs and martial music. Speeches by Mr. McDonnell and Robert Morgan ein- bodied the regret of the students at Lieutenant Nugent's departure and also our sincere wishes for his good for- tune and success. When our principal asked the students whether they wished to become members of the Red Cross, he received a unanimous vote in favor of joining this worthy cause. Money was taken from our school fund and soon every- one was proud to wear a Red Cross'button. The history and splendid work, both in peace and war, of this great organization, was dramatically portrayed for us in a sketch written and presented by a group of Freshmen under the direction of Miss Heacock. ln May, a group of seventy-five Seniors willingly gave their services during the days of sugar rationing. Others have volunteered to become Farm Cadets this summer and will aid in the vital work of Conserving the countryls food supply. Our students also collected many books for the soldiers in camps. ln these ways, Kensington students have Hshared America during the past year and have shown their willingness to put forth even greater efforts in the future.

' til N and ll ll .ll Ill . . . li t 1i+!f M Y ff +1 'i1A M1 dm1n1strat1on N ln the words of our superintendent, Dr. Robert T. Bapst: HThe essential feature of education is the training in good habits-good physical habits, good mental habits, good moral habits. Although we may forget much of the factual knowledge we accumulate, the habits and training remainf' From these words, we are able to visualize the aim of modern education. lts purpose is to prepare us during our high school years so that when we leave the sheltered portals of this school, each one of us might have a true, honest character, strengthened by the guidance of our educators. The carrying-out of this program is the daily concern of the administrative officers and the faculty, and many are the ways in which they guide and counsel us. During the year, weekly assembly pro- grams are the focal point of all school affairs. lt is here that pertinent problems affecting all students are discussed by Mr. McDonnell or Mr. Chassin. It is these assemblies which bring together all stu- dents, instilling in them a feeling of unity and fostering the growth of school spirit. Each Wlednesday morning, every home room and study room teacher directs a program of voca- tional guidance designed not only to assist pupils in planning future careers but also to aid them in building the habits and personality that will best insure success. These Wednesday morning talks cover a wide range of topics, including points of conduct, the qualities that have made famous men and women successful, the best ways of preparing for various professions and businesses, and many other subjects. The guidance periods are carried on sometimes by the teacher alone, more often by group discussion, and very frequently by sketches or playlets prepared by the students. Whatever their form, every student in the school has benefited immeasurably by the ideas and principles learned in this way. ln all classes, the interest, enthusiasm, and patience of our teachers has made learning a pleasur- able task and has often aroused in us latent interests which may become the basis of our lifework. For every subject in the curriculum is in some way-directly or indirectly-connected with the careers we will pursue after leaving school. To point out this connection and to show the practical side of the subjects studied is no small part of the teacher's share in guiding us. In addition, the majority of teachers sponsor clubs to supplement our classroom knowledge, to promote our talents, and to present us with a broader, clearer outlook on life. The benefits derived from these clubs and the programs they carry out are fully portrayed in the activities section of The Compass. The classic ideal of a sound mind in a sound body is further carried out by the numerous opportuni- ties for physical training and exercise which form the athletic program at Kensington. Every student has a chance to learn and to engage in a sport in which he or she is interested. Teamwork and good sportsmanship are not the least valuable lessons learned from the physical education teachers. Seniors, especially, know the tireless work administrative officers and teachers do in their behalf. The library maintains a file of college pamphlets and circulars and every aid is given the Senior who is choosing a college. Students with high averages are informed of scholarships available and urged to take advantage of such opportunities. lt is in the fourth year, too, that the vocational guidance program gives us most definite assistance in selecting our future work. Thus, from the intimate, friendly talks, self-sacrificing efforts, and splendid, personal example of our faculty, we students have been aided day by day and year by year to the building of characters that will enable us to carry on our work confident of our ability and armed with the elements of success. 19 Salvador - - Guatemala - - Panama As Latin-America and the United States develop their alliance, our economic systems Will become more interdependent, social distinctions will dis- appear through real equality, and political policies will become more liberal. Prepared by their happy days at Kensington to live cooperatively and in- telligently in a changing world, our graduates will help to bring about these changes in their realms of business, professions, arts, homemaking, and politics. ,iii I it 'H .. il!

These manuscripts contain a portion of his life that will long be remem- bered. lndeed, they portray his four tedious, yet sweet, high school years. Definite distinctiveness in appearance marks these books one from the other. The first is insignificant, tattered, and well-worn. T e aged appearance of the next symbolizes its close relationship revealed by its mas- sive breadth and striking di 'loses to all its brief temporal existence. Adolescent shortcomings, such as impishness, irre- sponsibility, and unworldliness, constitute the out- standing characteristics of the rather infinitesimal work, the serial number of which is 1938-39. ln truth, it strikes one as a rather trifiing span of time, but it embodies the sometimes humiliating and always awe- some experiences of a bewildered freshman. Miss ,lohnson's stately supervision of the mischievous fresh- men Bill Jones, Art Eberhardt, and Ted Baldock, was a most fitting parallel with Miss Heacockls firm guid- ance of those bemused lassies, Dorothy Cawrys, Grace Rittman, Lorraine Hickler, and Ruth Toolen. While munching a delicious morsel of cake at the Freshmen Halloween party, Marilyn Williaiiis became the envy of all when she found the dainty opal ring, the coveted prize at this traditional party. The annual Christmas Pageant was enlivened by the colossal performances of Hank Klingman, John Seagrave, and Bob Hutch- inson as heralds. Hank and John later abandoned the the first, but its thickness verifies its higher degree of importance. 'ollowing these two decrepit chronicles appears an impressive mas- terpiece which distinguishes itself from the previous ones by its fresh and colorful exterior.

The outstanding victory of the girls of Room 465, under the capable management of Do- lores Schmidt, in securing the largest average of Compass subscriptions was a highly commendable feat. The super-salesmanship and winning ways of Italia Cassiol, lrene Fechter, and Bose Marie Denler contributed greatly to this successful venture. Clement Donner, George Ferner, Jerry Gravius, Walter Theisen, Betty Ansell, Lillian Price, Ruth Bailey, and Betty Galley personified the typical freshman to the nth de- gree throughout the arduous year when we were all the joy and bane of our teachers. At the close of the year, we applauded our scholastic leader, Jean Cray, who captured the coveted Freshman Attainment Medal. The more bountiful edition of l939-40 indicates the accelerated action and industry of our Sophomore year, however, its ragged folds vouchsafe the imma- ture ability of the class as a whole and indicate that stress and strife sometimes accompanied our efforts. This was the year We discovered that within our vast de la lczse. . . 1942 fiock was exceptional talent which rapidly mushroomed into various fields of endeavor. James Brown, Harry Hawkins, Henry Miller, James Tischendorf, Dan Wyckoff, and Joe Wohlrab upheld the soph- omore 'morale by going out and really plugging in the world of sports. Moreover, such graceful mermaids as Rita Beginato, Milli- D cent Clarke, lrene Zielinski, and Kay Rose thrilled a tense throng at the Water' Follies with their rhythmic movements through the calm, green water. Marge Bailey, Dolores Nowacki, Don Miller, and Joe Mancini achieved prominence by their superb vocal accomplishments during many entertainments. The eyes of all were focused on George Vffebb when he, displaying the particular poise inherent in a sopho- in :nu YT 2 I 1: E i T: E I T: Y! ': I TT E I ii f WV . -,I fx 'Fl 'W gp!!

All of us remember the panclemonium which reigned in the cafeteria on Halloween when everyone scrambled for the rolls, hopeful of getting one enriched with a silver coin. The birds certainly had a lot to eat that day! Finally, as the year drew to a close, we learned that Helen Stahl had the highest scholastic rating. Having surpassed her rivals, she received the Sophomore Attainment Medal. Though this volume contains few momentous feats, its pages foreshadow the future triumphs and shining victories of all mentioned in it. For we were learning, and with each year becoming more worthy of our Alma Mater. By its pompous display of beauty, Volume Ill sug- gests the first appearance of real initiative in the zealous members of the Junior class. ln the realm of sports, George King and John Galvin manifested their exceptional talents. A bevy of feminine athletes, headed by Jane Boob, Marie Cassiol, and Doreen Mex, exhibited similar aptitude in intramural competition. Meanwhile, busy preparing the way for their work on The Compass, Don Ryberg and Reno Fusani were active officers of the Sketch Club, Millicent Clarke and Roselyn Zornick were star performers in the Water Folliesg and Esther Safraniec was winning prizes for her skill as a chess player. Dorothy Czech, Dolores Nowacki, Bill Richards, and Dave Marchant took part in Kensington's second operetta, the unforgettable 'LBelle of Barcelonaf' in which Donald Miller as the hero and Charles Hughes as the jovial lrishman were heartily applauded. Faithful members of the band and orchestra were Nelson Braaten, Marve VanTine, Irving Abendschein, lrene Adelmann, Marian Murphy, and Louise Adams. The timely climax of this fruitful epoch arrived with the election of the class officers: President, the handsome, dramatically inclined Robert Knechtelg vice-president, the scholarly Jean Cray, treasurer, jovial Chuck Hughes, and secretary, charm- ing Derith Frey. Two outstanding debaters, Jean Staub and Jim Harmon, were selected as Girls, and Boys, Marshals. Thoroughly professional was the sketch pre- sented on Junior Day when Doris McGowan, Eileene I Continued on Page 1551 rr tu.. 1 - - N ' 1- . ... H -S' ' Q ' 'N F' 1' Vg, , Y my-1 ' ,.

Your future, perhaps, seems most uncertain to you and you are confused because of the turmoil. Your teachers, however, have spent four years with you in an effort to strengthen your character and to prepare you, as strong Americans, to meet the totalitarian challenge to democracy. You have had the sound principles of this democracy brought constantly to your attention and, I am sure, as true Americans you have learned to respect your fellowmen and to appre- ciate the citizens in the countries to our north and to our south. We have heard the voice of dictatorship advocating the rule of force, yet we were slow to understand its meaning because ours is a nation of peace. The superiority of one race became the philosophy of' the dictators and again we were slow to realize the dangers of this concept because our philosophy is built upon the equality of man. Government of the people, by the people, and for the people has been declared obsolete, but we know that because this principle is the bulwark of our liberty we will readily make such sacrifices as are necessary for its preservation. You, together with your neighbors in the western hemisphere, will, in the spirit of real democracy, surely and willingly make the tremendous efforts necessary in the building of an adequate defense to meet the chal- lenge of the totalitarian powers. We, who have watched your development during the past four years, are confident that you will meet this challenge with courage and honor, strengthened by the heartfelt good wishes and Hrm loyalty of all your friends at Kensington.

We, the graduat- ing class of nineteen hundred forty-two, entering intoza world of strife, are happy, yet we are some- what fearful of the future which confronts us. Our regret lies in the fact that the four years we have spent at Kensington have passed all too rapidly. With deep regard, we now bid farewell to our Alma Mater and humbly offer our gratitude to those who have helped to make our high school ca- reers both enjoyable and profitable. Mr. McDonnell, before we leave these sheltering walls, we wish to thank you for your efforts in our behalf during the years just ended. We wish you to know that we respect your ability, appreciate your kindness, admire your character, and value your friendship. Mr. Chassin, we know that we have frequently tried your patience, but because of your understand- ing nature, you have taken a keen interest in our welfare. Please accept our profound thanks. To the faculty also, whose assistance has made possible our presence here tonight, we extend our heart-felt gratitude. Sometimes during the past years, it may have seemed to you that your efforts to develop our minds, train our bodies, and polish our manners were in vain, and you must have des- paired of achieving any worth while results. But we wish you to believe that we are not insensible to all that you have done for us and we hope that in the coming years, our lives will show the effects of your solicitude. Now that the long awaited day has finally arrived, we wish that we might extend our stay at Kens- ington. The world into which we are stepping is one of hatred and bitterness in which ambition, self- ishness and brutal strength are engaged in a titanic struggle against democracy and all that it repre- sents. Upon our shoulders, fellow graduates, rests the responsibility of restoring this tattered world to a peaceful state, a state in which democratic principles will be a difficult task, but with undaunted courage, we will strive toward its accomplishment. Aiding us not a little will be the high ideals in- stilled in our hearts at Kensington, determination, self-assurance, loyalty, tolerance and the qualities of leadership which we possess. Looking back upon our four years at Kensington, we are saddened by the thought of parting. As we venture into the professional, the business, or the industrial world, we shall cherish fond mem- ories of four of our happiest years, remembering the friends we have made, the priceless experiences we have gained, and the achievements which were ours. The most important ideal, the one which will help us to enjoy a successful life, is that which is sug- gested in our motto, Aegis Fortissima Virtus . And now, farewell. J EAN CRAY 61 Cl W 'll We, the graduating class of 1942, feeling due sorrow, but with the greatest pride, bequeath these our most prized possession, to our successors, the graduates of 1943.

They have their moments of relaxation when the cares of the world escape them, but they, too, struggle to achi- eve an ultimate victory in life. Kensington students, likewise, have their moments of leisure, but in an effort to become successful, they readily adapt themselves to laboring at their studies.

Standing: James Landsheft, Jane Preston. Versatility and spirit marked the activities of the .lun- ior Class of 194-2. From the day of its organization, the six hundred members were as one in their cooperation with class affairs. Charles Wells, the president, famil- iarly known as '4Chuck, distinguished himself as the boy with the bow tie. He displayed a more serious side, how- ever, by competently representing Kensington in the Boys' Declamation Contest. Vice-president Carolyn Ayres has been a favorite with the classsince her fresh- man year when she acquired the nickname of L'Kelly. The speed and skill of Jimmy Landsheft, the treasurer, on a basketball court long ago Won him the admiration of the school. The talent of Jane Preston, secretary, earned her an enviable reputation in dramatics. Mary Palumbo and Charles Dentinger were chosen as mar- shals. Maryas favorite relaxation is dancing, while uChuck can forget his cares when pitching a fast-moving baseball game. ln athletics, Don Saunders, Don Moyce, Bill Pfeifer, and Dick Balbierz captured honors for the Juniors. Janet Fickenscher, Carolyn Robinson, and Jane Noller brought fame to the class by each achieving one hundred per cent averages. Thus, the Junior Class has established an en- viable record of leadership and looks to 194-3 as a year of even greater honors. 1942 CHARLES WELLS President CAROLYN AYRES Vice-President JAMES LANDSHEFT Treasurer JANE PRESTON Secretary MARY PALUMBO Girls, Marshal CHARLES DENTINGER Boys, flffarshal CHARLES DIQNTINCER AND lVlARY PALUMBO 65 unior Boys Room 206 Rooms 204. 206 Leonard Albig Stuart Allen Norbert Andres William Anker Robert Averill Richard Balbierz Anson Baschmann William Basher Roy Baty Clarence Bauer George Bauer Nelson Bebber Robert Beebe Robert Boehm Ralph Bolton Howard Bork Russell Bossinger Lowell Bouquin Robert Brechtel Robert Brown John Brucker Gerald Bugman Robert Bush Robert Busselle Jack Butcher Junior Butler Robert Bykowski Willard Carmichael Herbert Chaffee Calvin Cohen Richard Cohen Norman Colgrove Arthur Cookfair Charles Conwell Hubert Crean Gerald Cummings Richard Czajka George Daddario Donald Danitz Anthony De Maria Charles Dentinger Charles Dingboom Joseph Donahue John Ebert Clarence Eckert William Ernst Robert Farrell Class .lack Fierle Donald Flach Harold Flaherty Thomas Folts Paul Forster Donald Frank George Frantz Harford Galster George Garbutt Thaddeus Gatza Henry Gauger Robert Gentile Claude Getzin Harry Gorenlio Richard Gorenflo Dana Grady Frank Graf Donald Green Arthur Grieshober Francis Griffin Donald Hager John Handel Lorne Harrison Robert Hastings Harold Hastreiter Eugene Hazelton Elmer Heil William Heinz Robert Hemann Leonard Hencinski Harold Henderson John Henrich Francis Hesslcr John Hey Robert Hochmuth Charles Hughes Lawrence Huntzinger Willianl Hutchinson .lack Hynd Robert Idziak Morris Jackson Richard Kania Peter Kern Robert Keyser James King Thomas King Norman Klipfel of 1943 Karl Krafft Gordon Kraus John Kropf Donald Laing James Landsheft Richard Lang Howard Leith Albert Lenhardt Henry Lesinski John Macauley Walter Mazzanti Terrance McCarville Wayne McNally Vincent Meegan Roy Meyer Richard Morsheimer Donald Moyce Aldo Narduzzo Norbert Nowicki James Ober Harold Obermeyer Raymond Orzek Arthur Overbeck Kent Owens Walter Pawloski Marvin Perry Gordon Pers William Pfeifer Milton Pfeiffer Arthur Pogorzala Ralph Polk Frank Primerano Hubert Raczka James Rankin Robert Rebadow Charles Reich Harry Reisweber Richard Rich Edwin Roth James Roth Donald Saunders Nicholas Savo William Schillo Darwin Schulz Elmer Schurr Melvin Schuster Robert Schuster Peter Scott George Sevdale Richard Slazak Earl Smith Edward Smith Frank Smith Harry Smith Jacques Smith Lewis Smith Roy Smith Robert Staebell Leo Stafford William Stafford Calvin Stegman Jacques Stehlin Bernard Steinbach Alfred Steller Richard Stender Thomas Stubbe Harold Sturm Edward Sutton Joseph Sylvain Donald Textor Ray Trautlein Robert Triller John Troy Leeman Valletl Samuel Vitale Harold VonLangen George Wagner Roger Walsh Nelson Welch Charles.

Here in Kensington, we have learned to copy the spirit of our Latin-American friends, and through these various organizations, we find an escape from daily routine, as well as an opportunity to enjoy ourselves and provide enter- tainment and pleasure for our friends. These pres- ent hobbies may in later years become useful vocations. ww li! :El E E . In gl El ' I ' 1 ' A West Indies - - Cuba - Mexico 86 ACTIVITIJES ' ?' Th Compass 1942 The reward of four years' effort. The staff of the 1942 Compass takes pride in adding another fine yearbook to lhe lengthening line of our schoolas annuals. After gaining a blue ribbon in 1938, fourth place in 1939, second in 1940, our yearbook of 194.1 achieved its goal in the Western New York Press Association competition. Attaining 970 out of a possible 1000 points, The Compass captured the coveted cup. Praise is due Editor Herman Pease and his competent staff with special honor to the art department for its excellent work which earned a fifty point bonus. After viewing the record set by our predecessors, the l942 staff buckled down to duplicate these feats. Under the direction of Mr. Meegan and Mr. Haggerty, we gathered subscriptions and solicited advertising. With sage advice and much-needed assistance from Miss Belden, Miss Meach, Mrs. Aydelotte, Miss.Townsend, and Mr. Mahoney, We produced our annual assembly. This yearls South American theme was carried out in the script Written by staff members and enacted by willing volun- teers from among the student body. Under the capable editorship of Constance Wallis, assisted by Gerald Gravius, we reviewed Kensington's activities, examined her organizations, quizzed the Seniors on their histories, and otherwise collected facts, figures, and phenomena about our school life. Much praise is due the hard-working secretarial stall? which took our scribbled copy and returned it neatly typed for the printer. To the faculty advisors, under the chairmanship of Miss Kammerer, we give our sincere thanks for their patience and cooperation. Our hearty appreciation goes to all who have aided in the production of this, which we hope shall be acclaimed as Kensingtonis finest yearbook.

Latin, the basis of nearly all the languages of Central and South America, is studied by many Kensington pupils and will materially aid those who go on to study the languages of our Good Neighbors. Latin Club Under the capable guidance of Miss McCarthy, assisted by Mrs. Chalmers and Miss Valente, the Latin Club again attracted a large enrollment. With the express purpose of furthering their ac- quaintance with the culture of Roman life, the members set about obtaining interesting and valuable information on this topic. Asa result of their research, several playlets were presented and excel- lent reports given. Keen competition was shown in a series of quizzes and games to see who would accumulate the most points by the end of the year. A brief study of Roman mythology proved how great an influence the Romans have had on literature. What,s my name? , a game similar to the popular radio program, was played in connection with the names of gods and goddesses. Talks on the Hfontinued on Page 1431 French Club One of the most popular clubs at Kensington was .Le Cercle Francais. The artistic culture of France, together with the mannerisms and customs of its people, waseagerly studied under the direc- tion of Miss Tewksbury. Early in the year, June Leslie was chosen president, Carol Reed, secre- tary, and Lucille Spitzer, treasurer. At 'many meetings, well-known American songs such as Wllhe Man on the Flying Trapezev and 6'Little Sir Echoi' were translated into French and sung by members with Helen Niles accompany- ing the group. Two amusing skits, HA la Gare, and uChez le Dentistef' were dramatized by the club. ln the latter, Marilyn Grotzka played the part of the suffering patient whose dentist extracted the wrong tooth. Cuessing games conducted entirely in French added to the excitement of meetings. fContinued on Page 1431 90 Latin Club French Club Germ an Club Again this year, the German Club met under the supervision of Miss Westerman. At the first meet- ing, which was formal, the following officers were elected for the year: President, Marianne Stroeh- manng vice-president, Channing Jeschkeg treasurer, Richard Roehmholdtg and secretary, Martha Heine. The members decided early in the year that their aim was to gain more information concerning the culture and customs of Germany and its people. At formal meetings, songs and works of classical composers and Writers were discussed. The opportunity to take part in club activities enabled stu- dents to increase their proficiency in the use of the German language. lContinued on page 1431 Germ an Club 91 Inter- national Relations Club Top Row: H.

With each day bringing events world-shaking in their consequences, the alert student cannot fail to be fasci- nated by the story of Americais part in this international crisis. The Social Science clubs offer stu- dents an opportunity for informal discussion and debate on topics studied in the classroom. International Relations Club Amid incessant and fiery debates, the members of the International Relations Club periodically endeavored to create a concordant ending of world combats. Labor-Capital disputes, Englandis ad- mirable conduct during air raids, American-Chinese policies, and Russian benevolence to the Allies were merely a few of the fascinating discussions which made this club singular. Each topic was dili- gently prepared and presented by a committee, each member of which spoke on a vital portion of the particular issue. Finally, the entire committee invited and attempted to answer the questions of other members. During April, the organization accepted the invitation of the International Relations Club of the University of Buffalo to participate in one of its meetings at Norton Hall. At this gathering a lecture on Latin-America and its relations with the United States was given by Mr. William Moss of Reming- ton Rand. This modern Marco Polo's speech and colorful anecdotes about Central and South .'l1HFI'- ica were exceptionally interesting. Among the highlights were these facts: The United States taught Argentina how to raise cotton, the United States imported 'more from Latin-America than she ex- ported: two facts which show our readiness to be a good neighbor. The speaker also described San Marcos University in Peru, which is one of the oldest in the New World. He mentioned, too, that in Peru's public schools all the girls wear uniforms. Ralph Swanson, president, Gloria Daniels, vice-president, Lorraine Hickler, secretary, and Frank Sarver, publicity manager, efficiently conducted the regular meetings. Miss Goossen, faculty advisor, supervised all activities and aided in the research for detailed information. Although the zealous members did not settle any vital world problem, they did enlarge their own scope of knowledge on international affairs. History Forum As a result of the success of the History Forum in previous years, another was organized under the able sponsorship of Miss Walker. Membership was restricted to students interested in current his- tory. Officers chosen by ballot were Lloyd Brassaw, president, Dolores Schmidt, vice-president, Mary Ann Baney, secretary, and Helen Sikorski, treasurer. The group considered such topics as inflation and foreign correspondence, and at one meeting, attended by the International Relations Club, discussed H. R. Knickerbockeris book, mls Tomorrow Hitler's? Informality was the keynote of this meeting, questions being proposed by the guests and answered by the clubis own board of experts. The History Forum has well fulfilled a dual role in providing pleasurable 'meetings as well as use- ful knowledge of current affairs. 93 Scienc Clubs American scientists are today playing a vital part in aiding our Good Neighbors to expand the development of Central and South Americais vast resources. With so many world markets cut oil, the Allies look to Latin America for new stocks of such vital commodities as rubber, tin and copper. Through classroom work and club activities, Kensington students are learning how essential to our civilization are the miracles of modern science. Senior Science Club The aim of this club is to further the students, knowledge of chemistry and to apply classroom work to everyday life. This year, through the eiforts of the advisor, Mr. Rutstein, and president, Her- bert Berman, the club was enrolled in the Science Clubs of America, a national organization. Other officers elected were as follows: Vice-president, Howard Ling, secretary, Theresa Rorickg and custodian, Constance Wallis. The meetings proved interesting and educational, as well as enjoyable. Mr. Rutstein led a group of members to Grand Island to study birds and their habits. A tie was the result of a science quiz between the girls and boys, Mr. Harrison, a city chemist, gave an interesting demonstration analyz- ing the school's coal. Highlight of the year was a trip through the laboratories of Meyer Memorial Hospital, during which specimens were examined and the operation of the X-ray machine was ex- plained and demonstrated. Both students and faculty members who attended learned much from this visit. Top Row: T. Rankin, A. Pogorzala, H. Ling. 4th Row: T. Majewski, R. Burns, B. Galley, D. Weber, J. Whiting, I.

Senior Club Winners of Fire Prevention Trophy Trophy winners: Dorothy Laufs, Ethel Lango, Miss Heacock, Alice Bebber, Theresa Kramer. Freshmen Science Club Every year students of Kensington are discovering for themselves the key to unlock the mysteri- ous door of science. Proof of this is evident when one considers the growing membership of the Freshmen Science Club. Thirty of the one hundred members have also joined the Science Club of America, a nation-wide organization of embryo scientists. Directed by Miss Wall, Mrs. Eardman, and Mrs. Landsman, the club members, aim was to further their knowledge of the branches of science in which they were most interested. Early in the year, the following officers were chosen: President, David Trautleing secretaries, Wilma Berney, Ida Nar- duzzo, and Jean Balkg treasurer, Geraldine Wright. Of what is the air composed? What is a Vacuum? Science questions similar to these caused many a freshman contestant to be puzzled in one of the club's many quizzes. Movies depicting many fContinued on Page 1412 Freshmen Club 95 Dramatics and Urator The problems and ideas of all peoples find universal expression in dramatics, oratory, and debate. Drama is a world-language, portraying human experiences that are everywhere basically the same. Through oratory and debate, all nations express their principles, ideals, and convictions. Thus, through these mediums, we may well forge a stronger bond of friendship between our country and Latin America. Dramatic Club A group of Seniors and Juniors interested in all of the various branches of dramatics . . . an able advisor in the person of Miss Blair . . . a quantity of imagination . . . and the Senior Dramatic Club has been called to order by President Edward Field. Variety was the keynote of this year's presentations. The first play, All's Fair, was a humorous one about college life. Persons taking part were Eileene Grimm, Doris McGowan, Percella Uhlinger, Yvonne Waldock, and Marjorie Bailey. A radio script portrayed the tragedy brought to the Aus- trian peasants by the warg their lack of understanding of the war-yet their willingness to make sac- rifices for the success of their countryis cause. John Chassin, Edward Field, Theodore Klein, Joseph Mancini, Robert Morgan, and War1'en Robinson presented the sketch. The activities of the club were as changeable as a dollar bill. At another meeting, Florence Bis- sonette and Jeanne Heinl delighted the audience with the dialogue of two girls in a defense plant. The most humorous, certainly the most original work, was a satirical comedy version of c'Romeo and Juliet done by John Chassin and Frank Sarver. With fantastic costumes, 'modern slang, and no scenery, the play was a test of the observer's imagination. Although the classic and its satire were comparable in many respects, it is doubtful that the latter will ever replace Shakespeare,s tragedy. Very successful was a play which starred Doris Connelly, Marion Custaferro, Pearl Stobie, and Janet Treichler. Entitled uCood Night, Carolyn, the comedy enlarged the Mjohn, there is a burglar downstairsv joke. ln addition to President Field, other officers were: Vice-president, John Chassing and secretary, Doris Connelly. 96 Dramatic Club Standing: Thomas Graber, Frank Sarver, Glenn Ertell, Paul Benson, James Burns, Jean Slaub. Seated: Robert Morgan, Dorothea Smith, Janet Staub, Emma Hughes, Dorothy Parker. Debate Team 'LMr. Chairman, honorable judges, worthy opponents . . .7' With this customary introduction, the Kensington Debate Team opened its 1941-42 season. At the outset of the contests, there were but two veteran debaters on the team, this required an addition of at least ten members to enter into competition. However, when the call for debaters went out, a great number of students offered their services. From these Miss Lee and Mr. Nugent selected those who exhibited the greatest possibilities. With the resulting team, the campaign was launched. The subject of the fall debate was: Resolved: that government subsidized housing be abandoned in favor of housing built with private fundsf, The negative team, composed of Jean Staub, Thomas Graber, Samuel Vitale, and alternate Janet Staub, was defeated by Riverside 8 to 7. The affirmative team, however, speaking at Grover Cleveland, was victorious, also by the score of 8 to 7. Dorothea Smith, James Burns, Robert Morgan, and alternate Glenn Ertell composed the winning team. ln the spring, it was our misfortune to lose the excellent coaching services of Mr. Nugent, who was called to the service of his country. However, we were successful in securing the advice and guidance of Miss Dickman as coach of the affirmative team, and the debaters were most grateful to her for taking over this work in the middle of the seasonf The question for the second debate was: uResolved: that New York State should adopt a system of free, state-supported Junior Colleges. This time the negative team with Jean Staub, James Burns, Thomas Graber, and alternate Paul Benson, debated Lafayette and was victorious by the score of 12 to 3. Our affirmative team, composed of Dorothea Smith, Frank Sarver, Dorothy Parker, and alternate Glenn Ertell, was defeated at Hutchinson ll to 4. Oratorical Contests The annual interscholastic oratorical contests are planned in an effort to encourage the development of ability to address an audience with confidence. Under Miss Blair's supervision, Roberta Brown, substituting for Dorothea Smith who was taken ill the day before the girls, contest, and Charles Wells did commendable work in representing Kensington. Charles Wells' delivery of his original speech The Need for Unity in Our Present Crisis won him fourth place in our city-wide contest. 97 Debate Team lj 0 Assemblies Dorothy Lamour, Jim Wells, Vic D'Anna . . . does not the appearance of such famous names prove that our as- sembly programs' are entertaining yet worth while? Each program is planned with thought for student participation as well as education. The boys of 306 again sponsored the Armistice Day assembly. With Kenneth Marshall as chairman, speeches were given by Leonard Berman, Lewis Peter- sen, Vergil Hale, David Law, and Clin- ton Ricigliano. William Averill sang c'My Buddyw. Flag bearers were Ralph Miller, Richard Williams, and Daniel Young. Thanksgiving was observed by a musi- cal program which included songs by Betty McLouth, Charles Ratzel, and Mary Raccuia. Instrumental solos were given by Ralph Meissner and Louise Adams and the Girls A Capella chorus sang a group of hymns. To celebrate our victory in the Thanksgiving Day football game, Jim Wells and Vic D7Anna were invited to Kensington by Mr. McDonnell. Mr. Wells' speech con- gratulating the team was given with the quick humor for which he has become so popular- on the radio. Mr. D'Anna delighted the audience with his melodi- ous arrangement of popular songs. Because of the emphasis placed on physical fitness in war time, the Boys' Apparatus Club, directed by Mr. Mont- gomery, demonstrated what training can do by an exhibition in the gymnasium. The spectators stared with wide eyes and open mouths as the boys threw themselves over and around the horizon- tal bars performing many astonishing feats of muscular control and strength. A talented group of freshmen gave a play portraying the life of Clara Barton and the work of the Red Cross. Angels of Mercy written and directed by Bess Lancaster, was narrated by Janet Hes- singer and Jean Hosking. Ruth Creola was excellent as Clara Barton and fine performances were given by Esther Carl- son, Yvonne Karlak, Norma Richards, 1941-42 Carol Borschel, Dolores Neumann, Rosa- lind Gerlach, and Helen Falk. Costumes were by Betty Houghton and .lane Fin- nigan. lean Anetzberger and Audrey Mooney were in charge of the numerous properties. A chorus of twenty fresh- men girls provided appropriate music and solos were given by .lean Crowe and Elsie Haas. Good St! Patrick! What a jovial as- semblage heard and heartily enjoyed the solos which were sung by Dorothy Baker and Janet Jones in his honor. A group of typical Irish dances were presented by a chorus of pretty colleens directed by Mrs. Aydelotte. The solemnity and majesty of Easter was appropriately honored in a pro- gram presented by the orchestra, the 'mixed chorus, and the A Capella choir. Solos were offered by Eileen Dearlove, Virginia Hohm, Dorothea Smith, Vir- ginia Mclnnis, Doris Eckert, and David Marchant. The theme of The Compass being the strengthening of Latin-American relaf tions, the annual yearbook assembly was one of the songs and customs of our southern neighbors. Marilyn Williams, Antionette Maciejewski, Marion Angier- ski, Camille Majchrzak looked charm- ing in their decorative costumes as they sang romantic and traditional songs. Spanish dances by Doreen Mex, Richard Wilcox, and Donald Fiegal were loudly applauded and the humorous antics of John Chassin and Joseph Mancini as Ferdinand, the Bull, delighted the audi- ence. A narrative continuity was read by Rose Marie Denler and Thomas Graber. The Junior Day program opened with an address by the president, Charles Wells, and included songs and instru- mental solos by Marion Angierski, Gloria Baker, Kathryn Meixell, Camille Majchrzak, and Marjorie Nichols. Loud was the laughter aroused by 4'Let,s Make Upv a comedy directed by Miss Blair and presented by Jeanne Crowley, Norine Gambin, Ralph Bolton, and Ralph Woodard in the stellar roles.

This selected chorus was divided into four parts: first soprano, second soprano, first alto, and second alto, according to each girl's voice range. The basic aim ofthe group was to secure perfect harmony and pleasing quality in four part singing. Under the able direction of Miss Townsend, the girls met faithfully every Thursday night after school. During these practice periods, the members diligently worked on the more diffi- cult classical compositions. The endless hours spent in rehearsing enabled the choir to display its progress by presenting nu- merous assembly programs. The first performance was a group of hymns on the Thanksgiving pro- gram. Quite inspiring and effective was the groupis second appearance with a medley of war songs in patriotic tribute to Lieutenant Nugent. On Saint Patrick's Day, the gay voices of the choir en- hanced the captivating Irish tunes. Perhaps the most memorable of all was the Easter performance. On this program were included Bach,s KNOW Let Every Tongue Adore Theef, The Lost Chord, '4Christ the Lord is Risen Todayf' and other songs appropriate for Easter. lt is interesting to note that this type of chorus is rated as the highest kind of group singing. Through its unfailing efforts, the choir has fulfilled its aims, and has contributed materially to the cultural life of Kensington. Top Row: C. Majchrzak, A. Maciejewski, M. Nichols, J. Preston, R.

I 103 Serving the School The word 'aservicew has today a wider meaning than ever before. It means service in the armed forces, volunteer work, or long hours in defense plants, all duties requiring self-sacrifice. As stu- dents, We can learn now to give Willing and cheerful service to aid our school, thus strengthening our characters for the greater efforts that will be demanded of us. The Projection Staff Have you ever wondered what organization stands behind every movie that you have seen at Ken- sington? The Visual Aid Department, often referred to as the Projection Staff, is directly respon- sible. Under the supervision of Miss Grace Heacock, our volunteers are trained to become efficient operators of projectors and visual aid equipment. The success of this yearis staff was largely due to the Work of its competent chairman, Merle Walter. Every Monday and Friday, a group of enthusiastic students assembled in Room 412. Here they were carefully instructed in the operation and use of the school's equipment. Undaunted by the thought of work, they soon became capable operators ready to sacrifice their time to aid school ac- tivities. Indeed, this trained staff was an essential factor in many of Kensington's activities. Among its accomplishments was an appropriate movie presented at the Red Cross assembly. The freshmen fContinuerI on Page 1572 Standing: R. Hoebel, D. Rockey, V. Teufel, D. Trautlein, G. Jackson. J. Schlegel, R. Landsittel, R. Grifiin, G. Frank, R. Griffin, M. Walter. Seated: A.

Library Monitors ln June, two books on the library shelves stood in their attractive covers reminiscing on the past year and wondering what the new monitors in September of the coming year would be like. This is the conversation they had: Do you think we'll be treated as well as have been in other years ? I don't know, but l certainly hope that we are covered when the students take us out in bad weather. . You know, at the end of the day I wish we would be put back with our friends in our correct places. l donit like being put in with Kipling books when l belong to the Austen family.

Art Activities Like the Projection Staff and the Library Monitors, members of Kensingtonis ten art classes have many opportunities to serve the school. Willingvolunteers are always ready to use their talents for the benefit of many projects undertaken throughout the year. They find time, too, to enter city and national poster contests in which their success has brought honor to our school. The Junior and Senior design classes started the year with the library poster contest, the winners of which were June Leslie, Jeanne Dilger, James Leopold, Earl Kingsland, Richard Hein, and Flor- ence Bissonette in that order. When exhibited in the display cases, these excellent posters aroused new interest in the wide variety of books to be found in our library. Next came the Scalp and Blade contest for a poster advertising their annual Christmas dance. Richard Hein won first prize with Bernice Lindner and Pearl Anger tying for third place. At this sea- son, too, Mr. Mahoney and his students created many of the beautiful Christmas decorations and blackboard designs seen in the study halls and classrooms. As their share in the war activities, art students made a series of drawings for the Visual Educa- tion Department of the Buffalo schools showing what is to be done during bombing raids. These will be turned into slides and used in the various public schools. The care of the large board showing the stamp and bond sales was the weekly task of Richard Hein, James Leopold, and Donald Ryberg. Many posters with a military theme were designed by the advanced students. Bernice Lindner, Pearl Anger, Betty Dekdebrun, and Frances Terhaar spent many hours design- fContinued on Page 1072 l06 Sketch Club The Sketch Club is a vivid example of the easy manner with which Kensingtongs clubs combine recreation and cooperation with school activities. This club,s members donated the attractive Christ- mas posters displayed in various rooms and were also responsible for a number of the striking dis- plays in the show-cases. Of course, the club has its own activities which make its meetings always different, never tedious. With Joyce Jeffery as president, June Leslie as vice-president, Marion Gustaferro as secretaryg and Thomas Ober as treasurer, the club carried out several successful projects. lt gave a demonstration of the Silk Screen Process at the Art Gallery and established its versatility in art by entering some work in the Art Fair. A singular honor was bestowed upon the club when Elizabeth Miller sold a stencil painting to a visitor. A weekly feature was the sketching in charcoal and pencil of a model selected from students willing to pose. At these times, Mr. Sauter gave wise advice and valuable sug- gestions for individual improvement. The twenty-eight members were as one in their enjoyment of picnics and parties. Highlights of the social affairs were the Christmas and Valentine's parties and the May picnic. Fun-loving Joyce Jeffery delighted members by her laugh-provoking interpretations of famous radio personalities. Art Activities L KContinued from Page 1062 ing and executing the elaborate scenery for this yearis Water Pageant. The annual job of transform- ing the gymnasium for the Junior and Senior proms gave many of the students an opportunity to show their artistic talents. Most important, probably, of all activities during the year is the work done by the art classes for the yearbook. They design the cover and division pages, prepare the many small drawings which help to carry out the theme of the book, help in planning the layout of pages, and paste up candid camera pages. Without the assistance of the capable art staff, The Compass could not he as interest- ing and decorative as it has always been.

Organized not for recreation, but for study, mem- bers acquired extra-curricular instruction in valuable subjects. By promoting an in- terest in learning, these clubs will inspire our students with a desire to study the culture and scholarship of other countries. lide Rule Club If you delight in solving brain-tickling mathematical problems or in measuring landmarks, the stars, moon, and other planets, we sincerely urge you to join the Slide Rule Club. This year meetings were held every other Thursday under the careful and intelligent guidance of Mr. Larrabee. At first, the members used improvised slide rules made from lined paper and later bought more accurate implements for themselves. ln due course, the problems in- creased in difficulty, but were met with proportionate ease as the training progressed. Often the members contributed their own complicated mathematical problems and puzzles for solution. Next the boys and girls were familiarized with the sextant, a remarkable instrument used in determining angles and ascertaining heights and distances. Each member had the opportunity of measuring our renowned school chimney and other prominent landmarks in the distance. ' Officers of the club were elected in a rather unique manner. A test, devised by Mr. Larrabee, was presented and the member with the highest score was automatically established as president. Thus, those with the greatest skill are allowed to occupy the offices. This yearis oflicers were: president, Richard Roehmholdtg vice-president, Herbert Berman, secretary, Lloyd Brassawg and treasurer, Marve VanTine. Many students have the false impression that this interesting organization is re- served exclusively for that small body of mathematical wizards which attends the school, but it is open to any student who is inclined to use mathematics either for enjoyment or as an occupation. cholarship Club After three years of fruitful struggling, the adherents of the Latin classics boast an excellent record. Four University of Buffalo, five Canisius, two D,YouVille, one Cornell, and at least twelve state scholarships are some of the honors which the participants of the Scholarship Club have brought to Kensington. Though any student desiring admission to these gatherings must have a Latin average of ninety- four per cent or above, many zealous Juniors and Seniors joined the club and in- creased their comprehension of Latin by attending the semi-weekly meetings. Since numerous extra translations of the eloquent Cicero were undertaken and completed, the members effectively armed themselves with enviable self-confidence for the on- coming examinations. At one of the meetings, Mr. Gleason, the faculty advisor, appointed these officers: Carolyn Robinson, president, Samuel Vitale, vice-president, and Janet Fickenscher, secretary. His selections were prompted by the superior ability of these scholars in mastering the intricate tongue of the ancient Romans. By efficiently conducting the later meetings, these officers proved their exceptional aptitude for leadership. Career Clubs The unity between the United States and Latin America has many contributing factors. Of these. commerce is a vital element. Students preparing for business careers are already aware of the many opportunities South American trade is opening to them. In the field of Home Economics, our girls see in their study of magazines a growing trend towards Latin American styles, decorations, .even menus. ln both of these careers, a knowledge of our Good Neighbors' customs will be a valuable asset. Commerce Club This year the Commerce Club of Kensington High School has broken all previous records of club membership with an enrollment of nearly one hundred and fifty pupils. Under the efficient man- agement of the teachers of commercial subjects, the club meetings afforded much information to the students who plan to embark upon a business career. Through many of the topics discussed, the club gave pupils an opportunity to investigate some of the numerous fields of business enterprise. At the first of the monthly meetings, our principal, Mr. McDonnell, was the guest speaker. He gave many helpful suggestions to the students for bettering themselves in order to take their place in tomorrow's professional world. Mr. McDonnell pointed out the traits of character which are essential to success and explained what prospective employers expect of high school graduates. A movie presented by the New York Telephone Company entitled A New Voice for Mr. X impressed upon club members the necessity of being courteous and speaking in a pleasant manner at all times in business oflices. Another club feature was the current events quiz which tested the members, knowledge of affairs in the world of commerce. At a meeting to select ollicers, the following were chosen: Robert Morgan, presidentg Carolyn Ayres. vice-presidentg and James Tischendorf, secretary. 110 Commerce Club Home Economics Club .M 1,1 il. , Top Row F Kroth L Stifiler J Strano J Volk D Nadolmskl A Altschafer M Weckerle K.

Meetings of the club were held once monthly. During the second meeting, officers were chosen. Lois Hoerner was elected president, Dorothy Pfeifer, vice- presidentg and Shirley Meyer, secretary. The girls were particularly grateful to Miss Stoesser, Mrs. Hyman, Miss Meach, and Miss Nesper for their untiring efforts as advisors of the group. Movies were presented at meetings throughout the year. The first two, '4Managing the Family ln- comev and Happily Ever Afterf' gave the girls a preparatory background for their future occu- pation as homemakers. The last two entitled Foot Stepsv and Mobilized for Mercyf, were Red Cross films stressing the need for volunteers. The club members were honored by a visit from Mrs. Thompson, a dietitian from Meyer Memorial Hospital. So interested in her talk were the girls, that a lively discussion and question period fol- lowed. Another speaker, Mrs. Grace Keller J ones, gave an inspiring talk on Care of the Skinu and described many of her projects in improving cosmetics. Members are doing their part in this world emergency. They spent many hours knitting afghan squares for the Red Cross. A small group visited Red Cross headquarters to learn what type of work is being carried on there, and to find out just what students can do to help. Late in the spring, all girls interested in dietetics visited the Meyer Memorial Hospital. The importance of vitamins and minerals in diets and the need for extensive education in this field were stressed by hospital dietitians.

Chess Club Woe unto the student who blundered into Room 162 and interrupted a Chess Club meeting, he was faced with the annoyed countenances of about sixty persons, all learning or improving their game. They were deep in concentration, their brows furrowed with the planning of a move. If the intruder was fortunate, someone paused to answer his questions. He discovered the universal opinion to be that chess offers not only entertainment but also an opportunity for the development of sound reasoning and clear thinking. He learned that Mr. Millard spent the first term giving directions, that, as a result of a Christ- mas tournament, David Nagle was awarded first prize, Richard Schaifstal, second. John Connolly and Richard Schalfstal were the Freshman champions and as such played on the school team with David Nagle, Esther Safraniec, Elaine David, George Webb, Glenn Frank, Ralph Swanson, Jay Filler, Edward Harrington, and Carol Blackmon. The team achieved an enviable record. It defeated Burgard 3 to 2, and again by 3K2 to IM3. It triumphed over Technical, LLMZ to IVZ. lts only loss was to Bennett. This defeat was avenged when, spurred by Mr. Millardis encouragement, the team won its second Bennett match by 315 to IW. Once the ability of the members was known, officers were chosen. For the first time in Chess Club history a girl, Esther Safraniec, was elected president. The other officers were! David Nagle, vice- president, Elaine David, secretary, and George Webb, treasurer. Every Wednesday afternoon mem- bers met to play chess to further their skill. They all expressed gratitude to Mr. Millard for the excellent training received in this fascinating game. 112 ily ,Etji 1, -tr it -if fi, 4 ,EV ' I l -,' ' 5 i El lfffifi Y if 'ti-5 gf s Penguins and Oysters watch the Coral Maidens. Water Pageant Ah! what a graceful dive! 'Llsn't that a pretty formation?,' These are the expressions which echoed from the lips of the audience when they attended the fourth annual water pageant at Ken- sington. Entitled nShell Songw, the story was a sea legend based on a poem by William Wordsworth. Miss Anne Mcllhenney, girls swimming instructor, directed the program. The pool was elaborately decorated, the scenery featuring a large sea shell surrounded by palm trees and flanked by icebergs. This setting was the work of Mr. Gerald Mahoney and his student assistants. The story of the pageant centered around Coral Maidens portrayed by Mae Beck, Eileen, Dearlove, Gertrude Mallroy, Bertha Falk, lrene Zielinski, Millicent Clarke, Marjorie Clark, Rita Reginato, Norma Reginato, Norma Herr, Betty Horn, Anna Meyers, Dorothy Churchill, Eleanor Cassiol, Betty Szymanski, ,lane Eberlin, Carol Blackmon, lrene Hofmeister, Buth Aney, June Schroer, Gloria Turner, and Doris Connelly, a singer. Other characters were Oysters Starfish, Luminescent Squid, Tropical Turtles, Rainbow Fish, Moby Dick, the whale, and Penguins. Narrators were Margaret Fields and Jeanne Dilger. A musical background was supplied by June Eberl and Marie Cambin. This yearls pageant is considered the most beautiful and pretentious in Kensingtonis history. 113 Haiti - - Puerto Rico - - Martinique Pan-Amerieanism can be aided and established through the development of good sportsmanship. This quality, above all others, is admired in us by our Latin-American neighbors. Kensington en- thusiasts develop this characteristic by participa- tion in Competitive games.

KENSINGTON 6, EAST O! After the mud had cleared, the above score was arrived at, and Kensington had emerged victorious in her first Thanksgiving Day game. This was the glorious finish of a season which began with Coach Bergstromis football call on September first. The initial squad of seventy boys soon dwin- dlcd to forty and it was with this number that we entered our fourth year of Harvard Cup com- petltion. We lost our first game to Bennett, 13-Og but, undiscouraged and strengthened by the experience garnered through defeat, we came back the next week and conquered Riverside 7-6. George King's dropkick highlighted and won this game. Unfortunately, our hopes were short-lived. A powerful McKinley eleven took us over the bumps to the tune of 34-0. However, torn and tattered, we came back in 'a blaze of glory to win our next three games.

This yearas basketball team was perhaps the best and most successful in our history. ln its first encounter, the team was victorious over Riverside, the final score being 37-30 with John Galvin split- ting the hoops for l5 points. Next Kensington defeated her traditional rival, Bennett, on her home court 41-33 and followed that in quick succession by emerging victorious over Burgard 32-30. John Galvin starred, scoring 17 points, with Castine and 'gShifty Landsheft scoring 6 points each. Hutch handed Ken its first defeat, but the Knights Went back to true form when they beat last yearis champions, Emerson. The next encounter was dropped to a well-balanced East five. Kensington led the first half, but in the last period Eastis height gained the advantage for them and Ken lost 35-25. fC0l1ffIIll6li on Page 1621 Top Row: Mr. Bergstrom, coach, Chamberlain, Gardner, Dunghe, Witt, McQuade, Nieman, Miller, Mathis, Bickel, Bykowski.

Cross Countr Kensington's high-geared Cross Country team was a dark horse this year, as many of the youthful candidates had never had the thrill of Wearing the honorable Green and Cold before. A great por- tion of the success of the team was due to the coaching of Mr. Louis Montgomery who trained the boys every day through the month of September. uPractice-rain or shinew was the rule embedded in every candidate's mind. These long hours of practice were not in vain, for on October 9 Kensington romped home first against Technical and Riverside as Alfred Duttweiler set the pace over a muddy course. His four scoring mates were Warren Langman, Norm Klipfer, Clarence Wallace, and Theodore Will. This victory inspired the team to even greater heights as they went into training for the Bennett-South Park meet. On October 16, the Knights again emerged victorious, defeating their arch rivals. Again Al Duttweiler set the pace for his mates along with Clarence Bauer, a new scorer. With the dual meets over, real work had to be started to train the team for the All High meet on October 23. Kensington, two-time winner of the coveted Columbia Cup, again remained the favorite. On the long-awaited date, a fearful thing happened . . . Kensington was defeated by Eastis power- ful Orientals. East won the race with 35 points, Kensington was second with 63, and Bennett third with 101. Scoring points for Kensington were Al Duttweiler, who made All High by finishing fourth, Warren Langman, eighth, Norm Klipfel, sixteenth, Theodore Will, seventeenth, and Clarence Bauer, eighteenth. The able manager of the 1941 Cross Country team was Harry Reisweber. His diligent Work plus the excellent coaching of '4lVIonty,' and the team's Willingness to spend hours in training, led to the Knights, excellent record in Cross Country competition. With the fine spirit of our Kensington boys, we feel confident that next season will see us again winners of the Columbia Cup. 118 O Q g The first call for candidates for our 1941-42 Varsity Swim- ming Team was issued by Mr. Warren on December first. Sixty-one candidates reported, only three of whom were vet- erans of last yearis team. As a result of lVIr. Warren's excellent coaching and the hard work of the squad, Kensington Won seven consecutive meets, losing only to South Park. Stanley Duch was the first Kensington swimmer to add his name to the list of record holders when he established a new city record of 1:07 2,15 for the 100 yard breast stroke.

Track Team When the 1942 Compass went to press, Kensingtorfs Track Team was preparing to enter into com- petition forthe Scalp and Blade Trophy. On March 31, a small, but determined, group of seventy boys answered Coach lVIontgomery's call for practice. Included in this group were a large number of veterans from last year. Among those who had represented Kensington in previous track meets were Gerald Stone, Alfred Duttweiler, Herbert Dechert, Richard Waldmiller, James Rankin, Richard Hein, and Warren Langman. ' In order to determine for what event each boy was best suited, MlVIonty,' staged an intramural indoor track meet. This meet was won by the Seniors of Room 106. First in their respective events were Gerald Stone, 80 yard dash, Alfred Duttweiler, half-mile rung James Rankin, shot putg Richard Raynor, high jump, Richard Malecki, pole vault, Dick Morsheimer, broad jump and high hurdles, Herbert Dechert, low hurdles, and Edmund Balicki, mile run. A freshman track meet was held to find out the possibilities of future teams. Among the promis- ing runners were ,Quintin Michael, Lawrence Eckcl, Richard Raynor, and Joseph Chamberlain. 841-17-7l Thiswas the top-heavy score that the Knights piled up to win their first triangular meet in spectacular fashion. Opposing Lafayette and Fosdick-lVIasten, our boys took first place in every event but one. With a beginning like this, we feel sure that, even if we do not win the cup, the 194-2 Track Team will set an example for future squads to look up to. FLASH-Knights Win Scalp and Blade Trophy! 120 T uni ln early September, a call was sent out for prospective netmen. Thirty-two boys responded and the Fourth Annual Fall Tournament was played. Freshman Bill Helenbrook defeated Clarence Zill in a thrilling finale 6-4, 6-4, and was awarded the trophy. The next task confronting Coach Norman Millard, .a top-notch netman himself, was that of mold- ing a team that could compare favorably with past Kensington teams. Since his entire squad con- tained no one with previous Varsity experience, his task was doubly difficult. Realizing that practice makes perfect, Mr. Millard held weekly sessions at the Dunlop indoor tennis courts. Here the young players engaged inan intra-squad tennis league with matches scheduled weekly. Their positions at the end of April determined their rank on the Varsity team. Ralph Meissner proved the best player of the winter season and therefore became guardian of the first singles postion and was given the captaincy. Bill Helenbrook was a close second and Derwyn Flynn was third singles. The doubles positions were divided between Bob Triller, ,lack Reed, Jack Horton, Eugene Strauss, Jack Decker, and Clarence Zill. ,lack Decker also assumed the responsibili- ties of managing the team. Chief credit for the successful development of the team must be given to Coach Millard whose unflagging assistance was an inspiration to each player. Late Flash !

Girls' On Tuesday, November llth, over two hundred enthusiastic girls flocked to the gym to begin an active basketball season. This year there were seventy-five Fresh- men, seventy Sophomores, forty-five Juniors, and twenty-one Seniors who received credit for their interest in this sport. The Sophomores and Juniors were grouped under the supervision of Mrs. Aydelotte, while Miss Seymour 'took charge of the Se- niors and Freshmen. This division made the practices more beneficial and interesting. When several days had been spent drilling on procedure and technique of the game, each group selected eight teams which practiced for six weeks. Following the trial periods, the major teams were chosen. This year the Sophomores made all their encounters easy victories with Norma Reginato, Eleanore Cassiol, and Joan Sorgi in the limelight. This trio has 'many sporting qualities that are admired by all who opposed or watched them. Ruth Bailey, Sophomore Team L. Stone, R. Allen, F. Baumann Kneeling: J. Sorgi, H. Macris N. Reginato, A.

Basketball Edith Sartori, Kay Overs, and Doreen Mex were prominent Seniors on the basketball court. The Junior favorites were Lucille Winkle, Elaine David, Jeanne Crowley, and Pearl Stobie. Although the Freshmen were not too well acquainted with the athletic activities at Kensington, they were handsomely represented in basketball by the eager Pat Mc- Guire, Gerry Winkle, and Eunice David. These major games were umpired by Mary Ann Brady. The Sophomores, Seniors, Juniors and Freshmen finished in this order. After the major games were completed, Mrs. Aydelotte selected two teams, the Green and the Gold, the Green was victorious. By the close of the basketball season, each girl had developed a definite under- standing of the game, a sense of cooperation, and a realization of the value of sports both physically and mentally.

During this time everyone strove for more skill and proliciency in a game which was both beneficial and enjoyable. The season was divided into practice periods, preliminary games and major encounters. In order to obtain letter credits it was necessary to attend 90W of these classes. During the practices the freshmen learned new rules and regulations, while the upper classmen went on to further accomplishments. Later, as the teams were established, a double round robin was played to prepare for the inter-class com- petitions. In the final games the Seniors won the championship, proving that their extra years of practice were of great benefit. The Junior team was runner-up, Sophomores and Freshmen followed respectively.

Some of the athletes Who are noted for serving and for net skill are Edith Sartori, Doreen Mex, Kay Overs, Janet Staub, Marge Bailey, Ruth Bailey, and Mary Ann Brady. In the Junior line-up, Lucille Winkle, Elaine David, and Mae Beck demonstrated their splendid sports abilities. The Sophomore stars included Norma Beginato, Ruth Allen and Audrey Borth, while the Freshmen relied on Gerry Winkle and Edna Ives for their points. As an added attraction in volley ball, the achievement tests were again offered to all the girls. Although the tests required advanced athletic skills, each successful attempt was rewarded with twenty-five credits. The gratifying results of the 1941-42 volley ball season may be attributed to the untiring efforts of the advisors, and to the cooperation of the players. Senior Team Top Row: I. Zintl, K. Overs, R.

Girls Bowling g Bowling During the 1941-4-2 bowling season, the enrollment of enthusiastic keglers was doubled and single scores and averages increased over previous years. Since 258 girls received credit for bowling, the teams met every other week. The first few meetings were devoted to instructions concerning bowling methods, scoring, and the plans for the season. Mrs. Aydelotte, Miss Seymour, and Miss Rich helped the girls by their advice and examples. Shirley Kron brought honor to herself and the club by achieving the high score of 210. Second highest was Mary Ann Brady with 200, followed by Dolores Schmidt, who bowled 175. Mary Ann Brady also held the highest average. Badminton ln early spring, the Junior and Senior girls went out with gusto for the sport of badminton. Under the direction of Mrs. Aydelotte, the girls learned the technique of hitting the bird, scoring, and drawing up the courts. With smashing returns, Bertha fSluggerD Falk and Geraldine fLeftyD Graf, Lucille fSpeedJ Winkle and Mary fSmash'emJ Simmons, Ruth fButchl Czeisner, and Lorraine fBudl Wiese, attained high places in the doubles, while Bertha Falk, Mary Simmons, and Geraldine Graf exhibited their skill in the singles.

The players were divided into four teams and practiced for the important major games. New players were instructed in the rules and methods of the game. On the Senior team, Kay Overs and Mary Ann Brady, pitchers, were supported by Geraldine Graf, Eileene Grimm, Florence Armbrust, Shirley Francis, and others. The star of the Junior team was Lucille Winkle. The Sophomores, enjoying their first season of baseball, spent most of the time training for future competition. Florence Zaller acted as umpire for all practice games. As the major games had not been played when The Compass went to press, no team results could be given. Tumbling This year, under the direction of Miss Seymour, forty Freshmen and Sophomores entered the tumb- ling club. The girls had to accomplish twelve required stunts. Among these were backbends, cart- wheels, headstands, and handstands. Ruby Zimmerman, Vilma Lavetti, lngeborg Joachimi, Carol Blackmon, and Alva Hauser perfected more difficult tricks such as front Hips. The girls also enjoyed building pyramids. They originated new pyramids and perfected old ones. Tumbling aided the girls in developing grace and skill. There were many humorous incidents involved in this sport and tumbling seemed the perfect name for the club when the girls undertook a difficult new stunt. However, they soon mastered the tricks, getting much benefit from the exercise and earning points toward their athletic awards. Tumbling Top to Bottom, Left Row: J. Strano, R. Allen, E. Scott, A.

The girls, determination and ability to swim, combined with Miss Mcllhenney's capable instruction, were the main factors which led them on to victory. From this meet a varsity team was chosen and Rita Reginato was elected captain. The varsity team was then divided into the Green and Gold teams. An exciting meet was held in which the Green team emerged victorious with 38 points aga'nst the Gold team's 30 points. The results of the meet were as follows: 100 yard crawl: first, Mae Beck, Gold team, second Norma Reginato, Green team, third, Irene Zielinski, Green team. 40 yard crawl: first, Irene Zielinski, Green team, second, Norma Reginato, Green team, third Jane Eberlin, Gold team. 410 yard breast stroke: first, Millicent Clarke, Green team, second, Carol Blackmon, Gold team, third, Anna Meyer, Gold team. 40 yard back stroke: first, ,lane Eberlin, Gold team, second, Betty Szymanski, Green team, third, Armelinda Cosmano, Green team.

As freshmen these girls received a four- inch felt letter for earning their first 150 points. An additional 150 points enables them to obtain a six-inch K, the Sophomore letter. The largest felt letter, a seven-inch green and gold K, was presented to the girls after they acquired another 100 credits. The final award, a gold K pin, was earned with a final 100 points. ln Kensington, the girls enjoy a very extensive sport program. Bowling, bicycling, horseback riding, tumbling, and badminton are examples of our advanced physical education activities. All of the girls find enjoyment in swimming, basketball, volley ball, tennis, and baseball. Because there is such a variety of sports at Kensington, every letter girl must take part in at least two activities. This year, bowling and swimming were among the most popular sports. Through the untiring efforts of six faculty members, the 1942 sports season was a complete success. Gym athletics were supervised by Mrs. Aydelotte, Miss Seymour, and Miss Rich. Horseback riding progressed under the sponsorship of Mrs. Heaps and Miss Lawler, while the mermaids relied on Miss Mcllhenney for instructions and encouragement. Many girls who received their pins this year have made their records outstanding through special achievements. Doreen Mex captained the basketball team for four years, while Jane Roob and Catherine Urso were better than average players on the team. Norma Herr and Gerry Graf made themselves prominent during each badminton season. Almost every activity brought Kay Overs, Eileene Grimm, and Mary Ann Brady to the gym. Bertha Falk devoted much time to swimming, while Ruth Bailey brought glory to the volley ball and basketball teams. All of these girls aided the instructors and were captains of teams. Top Row: l.

Equestrikens '4Up, down, up, down, were patient ejaeulations that our talented instructor, Joe Runser, uttered purposefully while the Equestrikens posted and cantered through Chapin Parkway every Wednesday. MEquestr'ikens signifies in simple language, uhorsehack riders of Kensingtonv. lt seems that Charmaine, O7Reilly, lnk, Rose, and Finnegan, the most high spirited, were the horses most demanded. Of course, all the forty riders could not have their favorite, buy they were satisfied just as long as they secured horses with pep. One of the most capable riders of the club was Doreen Mex, who was elected presidentg genial Catherine Rose became vice-presidentg talkative Margaret Yates was treasurerg and friendly ,lane Preston, secretary.

As you walk through the corridors you are bound to hear phrases such as: uDid you see Top Gallon kickin, c'Wasn't Joanis habit darling? or ul had to eat my supper off the mantelli' All this is the result of the ride the girls had the previous afternoon. This sport has become so popular that rides are held not only on Thursdays but on Saturday as well. Although the riders take the same bridle path through Chapin Parkway every week, the girls still find it adventurous and intriguing. As a reward for the girls' full cooperation with Miss Lawler, their competent and experienced chaperon on the rides, a Christmas party was given for those who had participated in club activities. Because of their excellent horsemanship, the following became officers: Jean Herman, president, Cyrene Georger, vice-president, and Arlene Hansen, treasurer. H. Falk, G. Hezel, D. Roth, H.

Students par- ticipating in club activities, besides gaining an abundance of scientific knowledge, have developed numerous hobbies. Included among these are collecting snakes, insects, and different types of stones. This club's activities will be of great value to its mem- bers as they progress in their study of science at Kensington. To coincide with the widespread interest in air raid preparedness, a playlet appro- priately titled lf It Happens Herev was presented by the pupils of Miss Heacockls second hour science class at the Fourth Annual Science Congress held at the Buffalo Museum of Science. The three act skit, written entirely by students, showed the part science plays in the making of an incendiary bomb and in extinguishing the fire caused by it. It also contrasted the actions of two families during an air raid-the Burns family, excited, confused, and unpreparedg and the Calmm family who had made preparations in the event their home should be bombed and therefore knew exactly what to do. These pupils received a trophy from the Bureau of Fire Prevention for the best group project on fire control. Students who participated in the play included: Delores Schwendler, Joyce Zilliox, Dorothy Laufs, Jean Plager, Barbara Pender, Donald Murray, Joan Gray, Paul Herrman, Marilyn Brower, Louis Puehn, Theresa Kramer, Edna Ives, Betty Erb, Betty Klopf, and Roger Wedekindt. 141 THE BAILEY MARKET Groceries, Meats Congratulations CLASS OF 1942 CARL F.

Attractive posters concerning his life were made and a serial read at each meeting acquainted members with the important events of Caesar's campaigns. Vigorous discussions were held comparing his tactics with those of modern warfare. Officers elected this year were: Consuls, Vilma Lavetti and Shirley Funkg scriba, Eleanor Ken- dallg aediles, Mary Gelsinger. June Ulrich, Felicia Brenzel and Helen Hedden. French Club fContinued from Page 902 This year a junior club exclusively for students beginning French was organized by Miss Belk- nap. Among the many students enrolled was Yvonne Karlak who was born in France and can speak the language fluently. At one meeting, she gave a very interesting talk in which she men- tioned that in France pupils are given much more homework than in American schools. After some French games and songs, refreshments were served. A club such as this typifies the enthusiasm and interest of our younger students in this modern language. Officers elected for the year were: President, Bess Laneasterg vice-president, Kenneth Gemerek: and secretary, Audrey Medlicott. German Club K Continued from Page 901 Informal meetings were in a lighter vein. Folk-songs peculiar to the German people were sung. The favorites of previous years were again chosen and club members enjoyed Du, du liegst mir im Herzenf' and Heidenrosleinf, Also involving the use of German were the games Fruchtkorb or fruitbasket, and Ringlein, Ringleinfi One of the outstanding social events of the club was the Christmas party at which many beautiful Christmas carols such as Silent Nightn and O Ever- greenu were sling in German. 143 Congratulations Compliments to the Of CLASS OF 1942 ROOM 413 ROOM 405 We of 357 Compliments CXiCIld gf our smcere congratulations ROOM 203 to the Senior Class of ,42 Congratulations Compliments To the Graduating Class of 1942 I o from The Class of 1942 ROOM 455 GIRLS 0F 411 Compliments ROOM 211 Of Greets the Seniors ROOM 213 Be true to the best that is in you Alice Ormond' Francis T.

Old friendships were strengthened and new ones formed at our long-anticipated Junior Prom. The picture of Mr. Thomas Mountain leading the Grand March with one of our charming classmates is a 'memory so clearly etched in our minds that even time will not dim its outlines. Once again Jean Cray carried off the highest scholastic honor-the Junior Attainment Medal. The exquisite Morocco binding with the deeply gilded leaves is symbolic of the impressive deeds inscribed in this final and dearly cherished volume, the annals of i911-l-42. Such a durable, and yet magnificent record, will indeed survive many inter- vals of time and, in later years, retain all its attractions as we look back on the activi- ties of our colleagues. Norm Castineis heroic exploits on the football field secured for him, and his Alma Mater, city-wide recognition, while John Galvin's remarkable skill won similar honors in the realm of basketball. Active in these sports were other able-bodied Seniors, among them Earl Erickson, Gerry Stone, and Dick Waldmiller. Equally adept at subduing opponents were Dan Szymanski, captain of the Varsity Swimming team, and his colleague Dick Reilly. Honors in Cross Country competition went to Al Duttweiler, while Ralph Meissner showed his skill on the tennis court, and Fred Postolese added baseball to the long list of sports in which he has starred. Excellent were the speeches delivered in two debates by these golden-voiced, persuasive Kensingtonians-Tom Graber, Dorothy Parker, and James Burns. The ever busy alternates Janet Staub, Glenn Ertell and Paul Benson were major elements in the team's success. The annual Christmas Pageant seemed to us, in this our final year, more regal and beautiful than ever before, due, no doubt, to the many Seniors partici- pating. Jack Horton and Bill Meyers, as prophets, Shirley Francis and Mary Berney as angels, were among those taking part. Ed Field and his quiet comrade, Willy, and the Chassin-Sarver interpretation of the balcony scene from '4Romeo and Juliet were humorous antidotes to the solemn business of senior studies. Herbert Berman, Anna Langerman, and Constance Wallis upheld our scholastic traditions by leading the honor roll-the latter despite her arduous duties as editor-in-chief of our yearbook. ln his favorite pastime, chess, Dave Nagle overcame his fiercest opponent, Mr. Millard, in several complex matches. Artist Richard Hein won honors in a poster contest and Clarence Zill enjoyed a trip to Philadelphia as the reward for his prize-winning Americanism essay. lt was no easy task to select officers from so many outstanding seniors, but we all rejoiced with the following when they were chosen: Robert Morgan, president, Derith Frey, vice-president, John Galvin, treasurer, and Dorothea Smith, secretary. Popular June Leslie and George King were selected as marshals. As we look back on deeds accomplished and honors won, we are proud that our class upheld in every way the traditions of Kensington. When these four volumes, each marked with its own characteristics, are closed and replaced in their sacred corner, they 'may seem almost to slip into oblivion, but never will even one fade entirely from its owner's heart. For often some memory will re- kindle our interest and we will turn again to the happy story of our four years at Kensington High School. So now we leave our tales to thrive, as they will, through- out the future.

Backed by a loyal team, HNip Castine and Dick Waldmiller scored the greater part of the points. In our next game, we subdued Lafayette by the score of 6-0. John Lock scored this touchdown after receiving a lateral pass from Castine. In our last scheduled game of the season, we conquered a powerful Hutchinson team, 14--0, with Bill Pfeifer and Nipper Castine doing the honors. The end of the season found us in a two-way tie for second place in our league. We were picked to play East in the all-important Thanksgiving Day game. The success of our boys over this heavily favored opponent needs no repetition. Swimming fContinuerl from Page 1191 Swimming classic, with Kensington swimmers and divers competing in every event, illustrating the all-around ability of our team. This is something of a record and shows the results of the boys' hard work during the practice season. fC0lIl1l1ll6ll from Page 1172 Our next game, with Masten, was perhaps the most exciting of the season. It was finally won by us 31-30. Ken trailed by a few points with three minutes to play when Fred Postolese tied the score. Masten scored three points, then Cas- tine and Galvin sank two half-court shots and Ken won with about a second to spare. South Park was our next opponent, losing to us by the score of 51-33. The next game, lost to a sharp-shooting Seneca five, 33-26, opened a streak of had luck and we dropped games to Lafayette, Technical, and Grover Cleveland. Ken wound up the season by beating a highly- rated McKinley team 45-31 with George Daddario stepping out of his role as a defensive player and scoring 19 points. One player, Norman fNipperJ Castine, received the All-High award with John Galvin and George Daddario receiving honorable mention. Sincere praise is due to Mr. Bergstrom for a wonderful job of coaching an excellent team. 16 TO THE SENIORS The girls of 406 Thought hard in every way How could they congratulate The Seniors of today?
