ctnss ulsronv j As the earth makes its l940 swing around the sun to approach and then pass tl1e vernal equinox as it has for millions of years, in the air there seems to be something different. At least, so it appears to us of the 1940 graduating class of Kenmore High School. Rapidly approaching is the event which we have looked forward to, but which has always seemed so very far in the future - our graduation day. For a brief moment let us turn our thoughts to our high school experi- ences. We recall our first day in senior high school when we emerged from a realm of supreme self-confidence acquired in junior high school to one of apparent oblivion and ignominy. Selecting Richard Newell as class presidentg George Thomas as vice presidentg Richard Weisbeek as secretary, Robert Woodhouse as treas- urerg and Jacqueline Meehan as class representative, we started forth under the leadership of Mr. George J. Barna as adviser. During this year, the class sponsored three very successful theater parties. Shortly before the close of school in June, a class picnic at Ellicott Creek Park was held, which all enjoyed-even those who were unwillingly tipped from their canoes to be cleansed in the cool, but not too clear, waters of the creek. Returning from the various adventures experienced during an unusually warm summer, we met again, amidst the first day clamor, as full-fledged juniors. Choosing carefully the class officers, we returned to oliice our capable president of the previous year, Richard Newell. Richard Yount was elected vice presidentg Allan Aitken, secretaryg Robert Woodhouse, treas- urer, and Katherine Martin, class representative. 39 JUNIOR PROM Realizing the inspirational leadership Mr. Barna had given the class in its sophomore year, Mr. Freeman and Richard Newell appointed him again class adviser. Given in the latter part of March was the Junior Show, HSwing for the Eldersfa written by Rob Voll and Al Martin. Next of importance in our class activities was the Junior Prom, an excep- tional affair in that juniors were admitted free, a privilege made possible by the fine support of the class in its two preceding theater parties. Outstanding personalities of the prom were Jackie Meehan, junior prom queen, and Dick Newell, prom king. Completing our junior year with a picnic at Ellicott Creek Park, we had an enjoyable time despite the fact that so frozen was the ice cream it required the best efforts of Dick Newell, Al Aitken, and finally of Robert Seeley whose firm grip alone succeeded in extracting the so-called ice cream from its container. Returning from our summer vacation, we found it difiicult to believe that we were now seniors. Acting upon what had become by this time an almost unwritten law, we elected Richard Newell, president, and Mr. Barna, class adviser. Other officers chosen were Richard Yount, vice presidentg Margaret Murray, secretary, Robert Woodhouse, treasurerg and Katherine Martin, class representative. Mr. Rarna. the class officers, and an exceptionally efficient array of committees began work at once on the approaching Senior Carnival where Kay Martin reigned as queen. Calling then for local talent, and not in vain, Miss Eve Strong directed to a success the senior play, entitled HWhat A Life. We closed our long list of activities with the Senior Ranquet, in charge of Margaret Murray, who made this last event memorable of our many successful undertakings.
