Junior Prom Senior Play Stage Door, passageway of failure and success, was chosen by dramatically inclined seniors for the annual senior play. Leads were taken by those pictured left to right: Donald Martindale, lean Clark, Clark Iohns, in addi- tion to Ruth Fitch, who is not pictured. Class History qconfinuedp Q juice. Rugged Russell Kean and glamorous Mary Iayne Quigley reigned regally as king and queen. Embarking on our final years' activities we again asked Mr. Grefe to be class adviser. He was assisted by these officers: Robert Marshlow, president: Robert Patterson, vice-president: Don Wheelock, treasurer: again Kathleen Guess, secretary: and Dorothy Schloerh, student council representative. Leads in the senior play, Stage Door, were masterfully portrayed by Iean Clark, Don Martindale, Clark Iohns, and Ruth Fitch. Ably em-ceed by Ioseph Kiebala, the senior carnival chalked up a new record in ticket sales. Opening with a stage show composed of singing, playing, and acting, the carnival also featured wrestling matches, an aquacade, and dancing to Iohnny Harris's orchestra. Betty Zwald, queen of the carnival, could be truly proud to reign over such an affair. Under chairmen Shirley lordan and Harry Oliver seniors are planning a senior supper dance as a fitting climax to three never-to-be forgotten years. Music is to be provided by lack Spencer and crew. Our belief is that if a time capsule were used to record our history, future generations would be duly impressed by its contents. Time, that decider of all problems, alone knows the answer.

.wma-n Senior Officers First How: Marshlow, president: Guess. secretary: Wheelock, treasurer: Patterson, vice president: Schloerb, council representative: Mr. Grefe, senior class adviser. Class History Glancing at today's local newspaper, we were astonished by this heading of a feature article, Way to Commemorate Matriculation of the Class of '41 Sought -and then this sub-title. Time Capsule Proposed. Continuing our reading we discovered that there was an urgent need since this was to be the first class to graduate from the recently constructed institution of learning, the Kenmore Senior High School. If that plan to sink a record of the achievements of the class of '41 into the earth was actually adopted, what would it contain? We entered our sophomore year fresh from junior high triumphs only to have the ephemeral bubble cruelly pricked by upper classmen who jarringly disregarded us. That complaint is registered by all sophomore classes though. Our chronicle would certainly contain more outstanding events. Well, let's see. In '39 our election of class officers was somewhat delayed, but the final election justified it entirely. It included such diligent individuals as Iames Hagerty, president: Francis Boutet, viceepresidentp Nina Beier, treasurer: Elizabeth Ioslin, secretary: and Dorothy Schloerb, student council representative. Mr. Frederick Grefe became our class adviser. With the profits received from our theater parties, we presented the Utica Iubilee Singers at our annual assembly. As a fitting conclusion to our year's activities, a class picnic was held at Ellicott Creek Park. Baseball and canoeing proved to be popular amusements there. tSome had the additional privilege of testing garments advertized as unshrinkablej We returned from the summer vacation with renewed vigor and a restored sense of importance. Again we experienced the thrill of resuming old friendships and the joy of winning new ones. Officers elected for the junior year included: Iames Hagerty, president: Francis Boutet, vice-president: Kathleen Guess, secretary: Nina Beier, treasurer: and Dorothy Schloerb, student council representative. Mr. Grefe became our adviser for the second time. The junior assembly under the management of Ieanne Busch proved to be a memorable success. Among the acts in the program was a feature ballet of cavorting muscular masculinity. Through the earlier sale of football novelties and the sponsorship of theater parties, admission to the last junior prom ever to be held in the old school was gratis. With Nina Beier as general chairman, a Hawaiian theme prevailed, heightened by the presentation of artificial leis to all the girls present and the dispensation of the drink of the Islands, pineapple

Senior Class Will We, the class of 1941, being of moderate intelligence and of superior good will toward our fellowmen, do hereby give, present, donate, bequeath, and leave the following hoarded treasures in our last will and testament in this ensuing manner, that is to say: 13 Ioe Kiebala leaves to any bewildered sophomore the answers, filed and tabulated, to the question, What you know, Joe? 23 Mary Ellen Dent leaves the secret of climbing trees successfully f?3 to any young aspirant for the title of Tarzana. 33 In order to further complicate the issue stating That gentlemen prefer blonds, we offer the following evidence for both sides of the argument: for blonds-Priscilla Aspinall and Dottie Hayes: for brunettes-Shirley White and Barbara Haist. Contro- versy over this subject has been raging throughout our high school years and to some junior we leave the final decision. 43 A booklet by Howie Clark and Pete Massing, hot off the press, entitled How to Be a Glamour Boy or How to Woo 'Dogpatch' Style is available to any sophomore or junior deficient in the art of pursuing the opposite sex with results. Applicants must finish the sentence, l want to be a glamour boy because ..... in twenty-five words or less. All entries must be sent somewhere over the rainbow. They will be judged by originality, sincerity, and aptness of thought. 53 Winnie Bannigan and Sally Hooper fdon't ask us why3 leave their most valued posses- sion, a silver-plated statue of Yehoodi, to Roger Moore and Donald Perrin. 63 As good luck insurance and to abolish all fear of possibly losing the long coveted football trophy, we are proud to leave the ability of Don Wheelock, Bill Olin, Iohnny Paar, Chuck Schack, lim Maley, Chuck Monroe, Lloyd Michael, and Dick Ebling. fHats off every one!3 73 If you long to be the life of the party as any wide awake future senior should, you can easily realize your ambitions by taking Six Easy Lessons From Madame La Hochheimer. tlf Madame likes you, the lessons are free. If she doesn't, they are reasonably priced at 55.00 per.3 83 Mary Iayne Quigley, Shirley Abbott, and Ruth Turner bequeath their artistic talents to aid the Kenitorial of 1942 in maintaining the decorative value of the book. 93 Bob McCormick, Alfred Weikal, and Dorothy Beck leave to any despondent red head, a hank of their own red hair. 103 Do you under classmen want a dimple? Eloise Logan, Pat Dory, and Faye Seelbach will gladly rent theirs for festive occasions at a nominal charge. Apply at No. 10 Lullaby Lane. ll3 The cutest couple K. H. S. has to offer, Peggy Mason and Al Twing, leave to another pair of faithfuls their faculty for remembering one another. 123 The Betty Crockers of our Alma Mater, Arlene Tenbrook, Bea Perry, Lois George, and Betty Miller leave their favorite recipes to other connoisseurs. 133 In answer to Miss Strong's ardent prayers, we leave the clever acting ability of Betty Goebel, lean Clark, Ruth Fitch, Don Martindale, and Clark Iohns. 143 Are you in favor of home work? No? To you we donate a super large can of choice brain food recommended by Marilyn Roesicke and Bob Erickson, who are able to both comprehend lessons and have a good time. 153 Upon entering the new school, we, the class of 1941, found said building entirely devoid of any traditions. Through the aid, cooperation, and assistance of Mr. Frederick Grefe, our own capable adviser, who has contributed to our success as a class, we are able to leave the skeleton of what we hope will become fixed activities. 163 To any collection of photographs, Shirley Baisch leaves her varied collection of pictures of our soldier boy Bob Evans. 173 California's gift to Kenmore High School, Vernon Harle, leaves a leaflet entitled How To Win Friends and Influence People While Traveling. 1 183 We leave a long earned rest to Dick Grier, our super Student Council president. 193 To alleviate the dullness of most study halls, we leave the humor of Dorothy Lewis. 203 To Mr. Wilson, one of the newer additions to our happy family, we leave a carload of orchids for helping us in our ups and downs. , 213 Don Hit the Road Brandt leaves his reputation as a big dame hunter to lim. Coleman and Don Freudenburger. , In witness whereof we have affixed our names on this seventeenth day of May, year of 1941. ' PATRICIA HANSEN, IEAN ERISMAN. 21
