Senior Qificers The success of almost every organization is primarily dependent upon the ability of its leaders. Thus, we oi the Senior Class must rely a great deal upon our offic- ers to lead us through a successful social and financial year. Our Senior Class officers were elected at the beginning of the school year by ballot. Since there are approximately 200 students in the Senior class, all of Whom are eligible for an office, our class officers must be popular as well as competent people. The responsible position of president of the Senior Class rested in the hands of that tall, capable and in- telligent senior boy, Michael Barna. With the wonder- ful guidance of Mr. Boyer. and the aid of our Senior Executive Council, Mike . as he is called by almost all of his classmates, has done a really terrific job in leading our class and supervising most of our activ- ities. Yes, Mr. Barna has plenty of Work connected with his office, but nevertheless, he has accomplished all of his tasks remarkably well. The duties of vice-president of our class were under- taken by our energetic senior girl, Lois Schmoll. As the secretary of the Senior Class, Dolores Piccone took minutes at the Executive Council meetings, and recorded our activities for future reference. Hollis Holvey was elected to the reliable office of treasurer of the Senior Class, and he worked diligently in handling our finances and keeping our money mat- ters in good order. p Senior Executive Council The Senior Executive Council consists of a group of students elected from the various senior homerooms, to represent them and act as a policy forming committee for the Senior Class. This group is headed by a faculty advisor and the class officers. For the past several years Mr. Clyde Boyer has very capably advised and directed the activities of the Senior classes in our high school. This year has been no ex- ception as all the activities of the Class of 45 have been outstanding successes, socially and iinancially. Our able class president, Michael Barna has promoted many ideas for improving our class, and has success- fully carried the class projects with the aid of Lois Schmoll, vice-president and other members of the council. The other officers were Dolores Piccone, secretary, and Hollis Holvey, treasurer.

MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT Mathematics is the root of all the sciencesg therefore it is a necessity for any student wishing to enter the fields of science and engineering. Mathematics has always been an important subject. This has been brought to the notice of the student rather graphically by the present coniiict, for mathe- matics is necessary for advancement in the armed forces. In Kingston High School the Mathematics Depart- ment, under the capable direction of Mr. Piccone, aided by a competent staff of teachers, is geared to the needs of today and provides as complete a course as is found in any high school. ARTS DEPARTMENT The contributions of the Arts Department are of such educational and material value as to make Kingston High School outstanding. Under the able direction of Miss Mildred Edwards, the Art Department has proved itself of cultural and moral worth. Achievements of the Home Economics Department, headed by Miss Bush cannot be surpassed. The Industrial Arts Department, headed by Mr. Keef- cr is molding our boys of today to be leaders of to- morrow. The musical developments which have been accom- plished by the band and the orchestra under Mr. Netter and the vocal classes under Miss Turner will be an everlasting inspiration to us all. The library, in charge of Miss Williams is the founda- tion for the literary background of the school, serving as a primary source of information and knowledge. PH YSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT At the present there is a great need for the physical training of the youth of our country. As a result many high schools have developed a physical fitness program. Our school was no exception. Under the capable leadership of physical education teachers, Joe McCracken. Don Hilbert, and Harold Pugh, the boys are getting set for the job that they will be expected to do in the future. Qualities of leadership and character are brought out in the various drills participated in by all the boys. The boys all take an active part in marching drills, exercises, and tests of individual strength and ability. The girls, under the supervision of Miss Harriet Gross are doing much the same work as the boys are doing. They participate regularly in exercises of all sorts. Our physical education teachers this year are to be highly commended for the fine work they are doing in the attempt to prepare our youth for the future. SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Kingston High School can well be proud of her Social Science Department headed by Mr. James Jones. In times like these, social studies cannot be stressed too strongly. It is important that young people of today have a full understanding of historical and civil prob- lems of the world. Because of careful guidance given by capable teachers, any graduate from Kingston High should have the knowledge that enables him to cope with situations like the ones he studied in Civics, World History, American History or Problems of Democracy.
