BREAKING THE LANGUAGE BARRIER . . . Language barrier? For some people in this school, yes. Sure we've spoken English for the past ten years, but all that time, did we really understand it? Chances are, no. After four grueling years of English at KHS, students leave enlightened: they tshouldl understand the words they speak and the origins of many of them, they've been exposed to intense writings, and, best of all, can dissect a sentence into all of its parts. tMakes for good conversation later in life, eh?l English Department: A. Aidala, P. Betts, K. Boduch, I. Cava- no, S. Cohen, I. Happeny, L. Hilbert, L. Hohn, M. Leonard, F. Licopoli. E. Lis- tort, L. Lomita, P. Nichols, W. Scherer, W. Smurl, A. Stein, R. Thomas, B. Turck, V. Voerg, W. Yosh.

TO BE EXCUSED ORNOTTOBE... Attendance: The word describes it all. The job of these four people is to know the whereabouts of close to 2,000 people every day. They have to keep track of who was absent and who will be, who got in late, Who's skipping classes, and who gets ex- cused When. On top of that they must distinguish forged excuses from the real McCoy. It's c1 tough job, but somebody's gotta do it. Attendance Staff: L. Bertone, M. Espey, V. Loughlin, M. Ri- enzo. . . . 8t THEY'RE STILL NOT SICK OF THEIR IOBS! The Medical Office sees KHS stu- dents at their worst; complaints all day, kids trying to get out of classes, folks who really are sick, and, on top of it all, physicals for everyone in the whole school. Despite all this, they constantly maintain a professional yet caring attitude. Medical Office: H. Berrycmn, P. Brogan, R. Hoveman, M. Post.

A WORLDLY VIEW . . . Social Studies is, in simple terms, studying the records of the world. It covers peoples, speeches, wars, leaders, dates, places, and many, many other things, from the Trojan War to the Cold War. It's how societies have evolved and how they affect each other. Some people believe that we can learn valuable lessons from history and the mistakes of the past. Let's hope our generation does. Social Studies Depart- ment: D. Avallone, H. Bayewitz, C. Bell, M. Caprotti, R. Colao, E. DeCamillis, N. Harris, T. Losee, M. Sol- omon, I. Van Benschoten, I. Weiner, E. Zullo.
