SUPERINTENDENT JOHN B. KENNEDY After being superintendent of our school system for four years, Mr. Ken- nedy is no longer a stranger to anyone, but rather a friend to all of us in Kingston. He has ably carried out his duties, which has resulted in improvements in many phases of our school life. For example: It was he who helped us begin our first Youth Center in the High School last year, and this year with his consent and co-operation, we have an even bigger and better one in the Dorrance Street School Building. This is only one of the many services he has rendered for us. He is friendly and understanding-qualities which make him a man no student need fear to approach for counsel or advice. He is willing to help anyone-student or adult-in any way he can. For these reasons we wish to thank Mr. Kennedy for the fine job he is doing as superintendent of our schools and wish him success in the future. PRINCIPAL P. A. GOLDEN Mr. Golden is well known to all the students of Kingston High School. As Principal of our school, he deserves a great deal of credit. He is patient and understanding, and a man who willingly gives his time to students who come to him for advice. In later years, these students are grateful to him for the time and encouragement he has given them. Mr. Golden's position is a full-time and trying one, but nevertheless, he has always had time for the athletic and social programs of the school. He is an ardent faliower of our football, basketball, wrestling, track, and baseball teams, and has never failed to co-operate with and support all of our social events of each year. The Class of 1946 believes that the happiness and success of our four years in High School are due largely to the untiring efforts of Mr. Golden, and we express our gratitude to him. DEAN OF WOMEN MRS. LELA HAMILTON Mrs. Hamilton is one of the most outstanding members of the faculty. She is not only a teacher, but also fills the position of Dean of Girls. The girls in the High School like Mr. Hamilton very much and are glad that she came to Kingston four years ago. Since then she has sponsored the Kingston Chapter of the Girl Reserves and the Junior Red Cross, both of which have been very successful under her direction. Mrs. Hamilton is a very gracious lady who understands the every day problems of the High School student of today, and is ready to help all those who come to her. When it comes to school programs, Mrs. Hamil- ton's clever and original ideas never seem to end. We appreciate the work Mrs. Hamilton has done here in school and hope that she will continue to help the classes of the future to have as successful years as we had.
