... ...... . .,.,. ., SUPERINTENDENT The task of outlining and improving the course over which the public schools of a community take its youth requires the services of a discreet, conscientious person. We in Kingston are fortunate to have as our Superintendent of Schools, Mr. John B. Kennedy. His unconquerable perseverance has carried Mr. Kennedy through seven successful years in our sshools. Mr. Kennedy's sage advice and common sense are apparent whether he is talking to the school as a group or to an individual. Not only in school performance is Mr. Kennedy prominent, but also in the social and civic life of our communiy. His ardent zeal in whatever is undertaken by the community is well-known. What Mr. Kennedy strives for, he usually attains. This in itself is a virtuous lesson. We the forty-niners, thank you, Mr. Kennedy, for everything you have done for us. May God see it fitting to grant you success in all your MR. JOHN B. KENNEDY future undertakings. BOARD OF EDUCATION .bf .. DI A. W. GRUVI-IR ARTHUR R. POIVELL LUNDY R. WRIGHT LOUIS LEGER ALBERT A.

PRINCIPAL Shortly after we had started our movement this term, the position 'is chieftain was made vacant bv death Havin l f .. .. ' , . g e t such milestones along' his road to sutcess as Head of the Science Department, Assistant Principal, and Director of Veterans' Education, Burton Hankey was appointed our leader. Unfortunately, few of us had been privileged to become acquainted with Mr. Hankey previously. However, soon after he took over the reins of distributing knowledge, we learned of his interest, sincerity, and friendliness. He has successfully directed the affairs of the high school throughout his first term. Definite plans have been presented for next term and for the years to come which will make our school system more efficient. Foresight and initiative have united in this person to make a very promising principal. We, as the graduating class of 1949, wish to express our gratitude to Mr. Hankeyg we sincerely hope that he exper- iences a long term principal of Kingston High School. DEAN OF WOMEN MR. BURTON W. HANKEY DEAN OF MEN MISS ANITA WILLIAMS We, of Kingston High School, are indeed fortunate in having as a member of our faculty, Miss Anita Williams. As dean of girls, Miss Williams is a most charming and gracious person. She possesses that wonderful trait of understanding which is so necessary in coping with the problems of high school girls. In addition to this, Miss Willioms capably heads the English Department. One of her duties is to prepare the mid-year and Hnal examinations for each class. As a member of the Guidance Department, Miss Williams is the advisor for the freshman class and will remain with them throughout their four years of high school. Miss Williams' office is open at anytime for those students who wish to come for advice or perhaps a friendly visit. We, the class of 1949. wish to extend our best wishes to her for continued success as an out-standing leader. MR. WILLIAM L. IVESON The boys of our institution of learning are assured of competent supervision. Acting as our Dean of Men is Mr. William Iveson. In addition to this capacity, he is busy with other duties which are required of him as Activities Director and Senior Class Advisor. The office behind the sign which reads Activities Director is always abounding with excitement and action. United in Mr. Iveson is a rare combination of initia- tive, friendliness, ability, wisdom, and resolution. Al- ways willing to add his helping hand to student-planned projects, he has carried to success everything he has undertaken, and has arranged interesting and entertain- ing chapel programs. We, the class of '49, wish to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to Mr. William Iveson and wish him continued success.
