BROWN This year, Kennedy has given up many of her traditions — football, the school play, the Spring dance—as a part of her War Effort. Blit for the unrelenting work and determined spirits of a number of students, the fourth publication of the Kencoll would have been another of these sacrifices. We, who have spent our time on this book, have done it to give you, the student body, something for the wonderful school spirit which you have shown despite the restricted calendar of extra-curricular activities. We owe a great debt of gratitude to our principal. Mr. Gilbert, and to Mr. Riggs and Mr. Brown, without whose help and timely suggestions our magazine could not have been published. We offer special thanks to the Forum for its financial backing, and to Alex Newell, and his assistants, for their excellent management of the business affairs of the book. It is with much pride that we present this edition of the Kencoll for your ap¬ proval, and we hope that it will bring to you as much pleasure as it has to the members of the staff.

Although you have done well in your support, you can and must do better. I enture to say that there were stu¬ dents in this school who had never seen any of their teams in action until the Seniors’—Teachers’ basketball game. If you had put yourself out just once, you would have been surprised at the amount of wholesome fun and excitement there is in a good hockey or basketball game. Next year, resolve to support your teams one hundred per cent better than you did this year. ()n many occasions, I have been asked this question bv different students: “What good is the Forum?” With the remain¬ ing space I shall attempt to enumerate some of the achievements of the Forum. It was through the efforts of your Forum of three years ago that you may now use a Theatre Card. This magazine which you now enjoy would have been impossible without the Forum’s financial backing. While on the subject of the magazine allow me to take this opportunity to congratulate Mary Bergoine, editor, and Alex Newell, business manager, along with the rest of KENNEDY COLLEGIATE’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE WAR EFFORT Summarized by our Principal The war has had a marked effect on all school activities. There has been a very noticeable drop in school attendance. In September, 1939, there were 1015 students enrolled, but in September. 1942, the number had dropped to 800. Many of the boys who were at school in 1939 are in the military forces today. The great number of for¬ mer students who have enlisted have been the pulse of our war effort. The Honour Roll, which has been compiled by Mr. Downey, now includes the names of 710 for¬ mer students and teachers, and more names are being added to it daily. Since this school opened in 1929, approximately 2145 boys have been registered, and about one third of these are now in the armed forces. At present 12 boys who have enlisted are still attend¬ ing the school and will continue until called up some time in April, May or June. The student body and teachers have been help¬ ing the war effort in many ways. Letters have been sent to every member of the forces and cigarettes have been sent, from time to time, to the boys overseas and to the prisoners of war. Defence training was started for the boys of our school near the end of 1941 and continued into the Spring of 1942. While the boys took this work, the girls were given the choice of knitting or taking War Emergency classes. Miss Stewart the staff for their untiring efforts in putting out this very good year book. Th? Tea Dances, the Commencement Dance and the K-Hop were planned by the Social Committee of the Forum. Johnny Mills and Gladys Sutton were the chairmen. These two are to be com¬ mended for their excellent work. You have at your disposal, this year, fifteen badminton raquets and comparatively few of you have availed yourselves of the opportunity of playing this game. These were supplied you at the suggestion of the Boys’ and Girls’ Athletic Committees of which Jack Kelly and Claire Back were chairmen. You have enjoyed Literary Meetings of ex¬ ceptional calibre this year—Margaret McCreery was the chairman of that committee. The posters that announced coming events such as games and dances were put out by the Altiora Peto Committee under the leadership of George Burns. 1 should like, also, to thank Mr. Knapp, our Forum advisor, who, when stormy sessions arose, diplomatically averted the heated discussions by offering timely suggestions. Jn conclusion, 1 caution you to remember that the Forum belongs to YOU. It can continue to function only with YOUR support. Interest your¬ self in the activities it sponsors and thus make your life at Kennedy Collegiate more than just a daily routine.—KEN JACOBS. Forum President. supervised the knitting and Mrs. Sills the War Emergency classes. The other women teachers assisted both. About two hundred girls were in each group. The wool for knitting was supplied by the Red Cross, or bought from funds raised by the students themselves. The War Emergency classes received Red Cross certificates. In September of this year, the Department of Education established Defence Training classes for both boys and girls. Since then, our girls have not done as much knitting and this has been done mostly out of school hours and with wool supplied by the school. The finished articles are given to the Red Cross. The raising of funds was carried out in several ways. The greatest amount of money was raised by the students’ bringing in 100,190 lbs. of sal¬ vage Other sources of revenue were from gifts, collections, dances and basketball games. Much food, clothing and many other articles of comfort were put in Ditty Bags for the merchant marine at Christmas time. Miss Stewart super¬ vised this activity for the Navy League. Collections were taken for Navy Day, Poppy Day and for the Blind. Posters were made to advertise the War Sav¬ ings Certificates and stamps. A steady sale of War Savings Stamps has been going on for over two years. The form buying the greatest number of stamps each week receives an honour banner for the week.

IV. — KENCOLL — 1943 Published By the Students of the Kennedy Collegiate Institute Windsor Ontario Price 25c per copy OUR TIMES AS VIEWED BY FUTURE GENERATIONS Mr. Fred Snider, Board of Education Some periods in history stand out as times of unusual advance and accomplishment. In the history of England what we know as the Eliza¬ bethan period was such an era. It was a time when great writers like Spenser and Shakespeare lived and wrote. It was a time that produced ad¬ vent n runs sailors and discoverers like Sir Francis Drake and Sir Humphrey Gilbert, it was the time when through the defeat of The Spanish Armada England gained the title “Mistress of the Seas. and we refer to that period still as the “Spacious Days of Queen Elizabeth. Ill the centuries that are to come, the first half of the twentieth century will also he thought of as an outstanding period in the history of the world. During these fifty years, science has brought to the use of man a Jong list of wonder¬ ful gifts. The coming of the automobile and the aeroplane has revolutionized transportation. The perfection of the telephone and the coming of wireless and the radio have made the world one neighborhood. Then too the first half of the twentieth century witnessed the two greatest wars in the long his¬ tory of mankind. At the conclusion of World War I, most men vainly hoped that never again would there be serious international conflict. But an aggressive dictator at the head of a nation of self-styled super men willed otherwise and the last decade of the first half of the twentieth cen¬ tury is witnessing war on a far vaster scale than even World War I. The same decade will undoubtedly witness the coming of peace, and we are all hoping the com¬ ing of a better world. The Atlantic Charter, President Roosevelt ' s Four Freedoms, and The Beveridge Report outline such a world. Man has already solved the problems of production for ibe needs of the world but has failed to solve the problem of a just distribution of what has been produced and this problem must be solved. In the bringing about of a better world the stu¬ dents now in our Collegiate Institutes must take a large part, They are receiving an intellectual training, a cultural training and a character train¬ ing that fit them for leadership and they are not afraid to venture on new trails. Let us hope that as succeeding generations look back at the period in which we are living that they may think of it not only as a period of great ad¬ vance in science and of two mighty wars but also as a period when much was done to solve the vex¬ ing social and economic problems that have marred our times. SPIRITUAL PRIORITIES H CapL the Rev. R, Charles Brown, M.A. This is the hour of man’s greatest inhumanity to man. We stand, as it were, at civilization ' s bedside, not knowing for sure (whatever our FAITH may be) whether we witness the death throes of an incurable patient or the labour pains of a braver new world that is struggling to be b0rn. By a kind of paradox we stand as spectators at that bedside, yet at the same time, arc upon that bed inextricably identified with the suffer¬ ing patient. Now, in every moment of crisis there are cer¬ tain imperatives of thought and action the follow¬ ing of which makes the difference between order and choas, between life and death. We are com¬ mitted as a people to the examination and adop¬ tion of those imperatives which will give, to a chaotic world, order and life. As Christian citi¬ zens we are always the hosts of a twofold allegi¬ ance—to the Cross and to the Flag, Unhappily when we are Christian citizens in a warring world, we are the sharp and urgent meeting ground of the conflict between this dual allegiance ANT) lesser loyalties in our lives, the most heinous of which is Self and Selfishness, Whether we wish it or not the conflict is there and we our¬ selves are the most variable and vital factors in that conflict. From this consideration stems the necessity for us to give PRIORITY to certain principles arid loyalties. First among these is the priority of God. No. thinking man can deny that the world has in the mass forgotten God. Thousands positively deny Him, defy Him or are purely indifferent to Him, To thousands He is at best a distant ally to be called in when trouble comes. Other loyalties have priority, This must be corrected. The Babel Tower of Materialism has come crashing down. Our hope lies in the rediscovery of God and our identification with IIis will and purposes. The THE KENOOLL 1 9 4 3 5 priority of God lias always been, whether we ad¬ mit it or not and men have always suffered gross- ]v whenever they have not admitted it. The record of history reveals that when the great empires forgot God ' s priority, in that moment began their decline and fall. Secondly we name the priority of the Moral Law. Four evils have attended the fall of the world ' s great empires—increase of divorce, break- down of morals, shattering of family life as such and bestiality in the sports life of the people. Study the facts about divorce, illegitimacy and social disease in this century. Observe what indus¬ trialization and urbanization of our life has ac¬ complished in the breakdown of family life. Note the chart of juvenile delinquency and crime Test the “win or else mood of much of our sports life. Then remember the Moral Law is just as innate in this universe as the Law of Gravity. No man ever yet broke a law ; he violated the law and the law broke him. As individuals and a na¬ tion we must seek from God the moral courage and spiritual stamina to accede gladly to the in¬ evitable priority of the Moral Law. The recognition and adoption of these spiritual priorities will alone enable us to raise up a genera¬ tion of youth fit and able to people and maintain a peaceable world. To that high purpose let us commit ourselves with every fibre of our being. RED CROSS SOCIETY Mrs, W. R. Campbell, National Chairman Wo¬ men ' s War Work Committee, Canadian Red Cross Society. Jn a world, full of the horrors of a war which touches the lives of old and young alike and which makes us all conscious of the importance and the need of self-sacrificing service for our country and the United Nations, Red Cross offers an oppor¬ tunity unique in many aspects. There are a few things worth remembering about this organiza¬ tion which are interesting and helpful-—perhaps the most important is the charter under which all its work is accomplished: In peace or war to carry on and assist in work for the improvement of health, the prevention of disease and the miti¬ gation of sufferings,” The organization is not local nor is it only National but it is International, with National Bodies in practically every country. It knows no boundaries or divisions of race, color or creed. The crimson cross on a field of white means to the whole world mercy and succor and is a sym¬ bol of tile brotherhood of man. To many weary refugees fleeing from the tyrants who have de¬ vastated their homelands this flag is the only familiar thing they recognize on arrival in a new country and tt seems to provide a real welcome, Ju other words its meaning is the same in Poland or Canada, Greece or the United States, Russia or England, Well do the sick and the wounded and tile captives know its value. It stands for good citizenship too in all the full meaning of that phrase. Thousands of boys and girls have become mem¬ bers of the Junior Red Cross and are learning through its programme to fit themselves to be healthy, happy people trained in good health habits, with knowledge of home nursing and first aid and are giving wonderful assistance to adult branches in their communities—carrying on an excellent job of their own, too, Canadian Junior Red Cross members support fourteen war nur¬ series in Britain for children five years and under, have supplied §43,000 worth of musical instru¬ ments to British prisoners of war, scribblers, lead pencils, etc, for the same purpose, have supplied mobile kitchens and ambulances and have made thousands of garments for the men in the services and for bomb victims. Young Canadians of school age. Reel Cross needs your understanding support—Be a Red Cross Crusader. KENNEDY COLLEGIATE CADET CORPS Now that winter has gone the cadets are again drilling regularly three times a week. Under the able leadership of Mr. Wills and the splendid co¬ otie ration of the students, the corps is on the way to another successful year. With the guidance of Mr. Downey Ml the members of the Bugle Band are working diligently to surpass their pre¬ viously established fame and recognition. The Signal Corps and Ambulance Corps under Mr. Beckett and Mr. Thomson respectively arc also deserving of a great deal of credit. There is, too, a greater interest in the rifle ranges with Mr. Lowden as instructor. In the report of last year’s inspection, Kennedy ranked ninth for Military District No. 1 with 82.5 points. Major Ait ken. the inspecting officer, especially congratulated the corps on their steadi¬ ness during the pouting rain. Me made special mention of the Bugle Band and classified several other phases of the inspection as ‘very good ' . Because of the affiliation of the Cadet Corps with the Essex Scottish battalion a new plan has been adopted by which fifteen boys from our school have received special training at the armouries twice a week during March and April, In addition to basic training these boys have re¬ ceived instruction on the rifle, Bren gun, Reising sub-machine gun and general military deport¬ ment, The students who attended these classes appreciated the privileges and fed that it is a worth while and helpful system. The cadets who attended the summer camp at Thames Valley last year lived in typical army fashion for a few days. Even the rising at six o’clock and the odd assignment of K.P. duty did not dampen their spirits. Instructions which were given on field guns, field craft etc., are only avail¬ able at such camps. The next camp being the second year will be beneficial and interesting; and as many boys as possible should avail them¬ selves of the opportunity of attending. The camp this year will be from June 28 to July 7. 6 THE KENCOLL 1943 KENNEDY COLLEGIATE STAFF Back row: W. M. Ryan. H. J. Laframboise. W. S. Day. W. H. Downey. R R. Deagle, G. Letourneau. F. D.

FIRST PRIZE— AN INVITATION Through a little country garden runs a laughing little stream. Where the tiny pebbles gurgle with delight; It you’re feeling blue some evening and of love you want to dream, Conte and listen to it singing in the night. It will lift your lonely spirit with its music soft and sweet. It will fill your heart with laughter clear and bright; It will chase away your worries, and your troubles come to meet And mingle with the beauty of the night. S on a pleasant evening, please accept my invitation To a party that has laughter of its own; It will be an inspiration and will raise your indignation That you might have missed a thrill you’d never known. —Jean MacKay.

A million fighting men are here To keep this England free, No domineering German Fuehrer Can bomb and rule o’er thee.

We dance to all the latest tunes. Mom says, “It’s just a racket”; It’s only ’cause she doesn’t rate High in our Hep-Cat’ bracket. When we have children of our own We will be just like Mother, And, scolding at their little pranks. Get nothing for the bother. —Muriei Newman.

This by the way was the first time in five years that our senior team has beaten the Walkerville team. Although the team was well balanced Ed Halle wide, goalie, and Jack Cates, forward, deserve special mention for their play throughout the year. Besides these players the team included: Gordon Edgar, captain, Bub Gamier, Bill Hunter. Jack Cape, Lloyd Curok, Norman Cazxola, Bill West, Joe Koskie. Junior Hockey Team The Juniors were also slow in getting started, as a matter of fact it seems they never did get started. Al¬ though the team was one of the lies! Kennedy has seen Dame Fortune forsook it and victory came not even once to our Juniors, Earl Brandy was the mainstay of the team scoring ten of the team ' s hard earned points during the season while jack Pinkerton, Bill Ogle. Kaye Heath, and Ted Bmlyrinksi all played well and accounted for several goals.

Both learns would like to extend their thanks to Mr. Thomson for the interest he took m the teams even though there were no prospects of championship,’ It has been brought to our attention that Mr. Thomson, al though he was sick, insisted on coaching his team in an important game. Football ' Phe fact that football was discontinued in the schools this year did not keep Kennedy from having its own pri- vale house leagues. There were three Iranis in (lie senior league and four m llu junior league and both leagues played eight man toot ball. Mike YuhasFs team took the senior championship after a hard fought season. Elis team included: Curry, Koskie, Light, Howie, Reid Taylor, Savalsky. The junior championship was won by Alan Prices team. The following boys played: McLeod, Walsh, Banes, W hite, Perkins, Ledgley.

Senior Basketball A senior team long lo be remembered will be this year ' s team, which in spite of continued losses of better players because of the war, managed to place third in a keenly contested league. Jack Kelly, Gus Rindl, Joe lannicello, fed Back, and Harold Parkes constituted the first team Other players included Harold Grice, Ken Jacobs, AI Barbesin. Ed Pillon. Charlie Kouvelas El so Schincariol and Lyle War¬ wick Incidentally Jack Kelly, captain of the team and Harold Parkes arc in the Navy now, The team wishes them the best of luck. Junior Basketball Mr, Beckett had at his disposal, ibis year, a group of hoys who for tiled a smooth working combination so make a line first team. These hoys were l abium Curry, captain, Bob Krol. scintillating high scorer Mike Yubas Jim llowic. and John Richards. The dose of the season found these hoys in third place: however, it is certain that next year with almost the same team hack, the championship will he in the offing. Other members of the team included: Murphy, Gal¬ braith, Voting. Kimitate, and Spurgeon. Mr, Beckett and Mr. Riggs are due no end of credit for the way in which they coached their teams and it goes without saying that the school as well as the teams thank them tor the fine work they did this year. Table-Tennis Jlds year after a long rest the old ping-pong tables, which Tommy Gordon made, were dusted off and a real championship tournament was held under the supervision of Mr. Wills. A chart was posted in the gym and the competitors played their games according to schedule. This made them personally responsible for getting their games p fayed. By the time for production of this magazine, 1 he par¬ ticipants were still contesting bitterly for the champion¬ ship. Swimming The school swimming meet was actually .something to see The hoys put oil a fine exhibition of racing and diving. Jack Kelly won the senior boys individual champion- ship with 15 points, John Coulter was right at lbs heels with 12 points. The junior hoys ' individual championship was taken bv Archie Galbraith who amassed lb points, A. Edwards was runner-up with 10 points, X 11 A took the school class championship with a total of 41 points, A duel meet was planned with Assumption College and the city meet was held on Friday, April lb. Badminton The Forum, this year, lias supplied the students with fifteen badminton ratjnets and judging from the turnout on Fridays after school, the game is one that is very popular although it is hoped that, next year, more hoys will interest themselves in this sport. The purpose of badminton is to give the student a game which he will be able to play when he leaves school. Most of the sports practised in the schools are highly organised team games which are played by a comparatively few number after graduation, therefore we are giving the student an opportunity to learn a game, that be will enjoy for many years to come. + +- GIRL’S ATHLETICS Compared to the last few years the girls sport ac¬ tivities have increased, much to the advantage of Ken¬ nedy Collegiate. There have been large turnouts lor the basketball and swimming teams. There has also been, on the part of the girls, a very good showing of badmin¬ ton players. Basketball Although the team wasn’t outstanding in winning games they were while playing them. The coach this year was Miss Large a most of you all know. The team appreciated her and found her to he a great help to their efforts in play. The team, captained by Dorothy Potter, included Vivian Arhen. Janet McVittie, Gladys Sutton. E dith Bor- tolloto, Muriel Tough, Rcva Soblc, Irene Corhishdale. Joyce Gentle, Alda LaLondc, Sylvia Potter and Isohel Rous home. Inter-form Basketball The girls in 9A won the Inter-form Basketball Plaque this year. Usually the Plaque ha been awarded to one of the upper forms, but this year, much to the whole school’s amazement, it was given to the Junior girls. They played all the other forms who had teams, and won. These girls have shown a lot of spunk and deserve credi for their accomplishment. The runner up w ' as 9H, by one point. Theresa McVeigh devoted most of her time refereeing the games ami seeing that the girls got practice and played other forms. She has been a magnificent help to the girls and Miss Large. Swimming Our girls this year won the City Championship. The relay teams, both Junior and Senior took first place. The Senior Diving Champion was June Spence and the Junior Diving Champion was Mary MacDonald. The swimming teams included Doreen White, June Lewis. Harriet Davidson, Joyce Gamier, Sylvia Potter, Mary Mac¬ Donald, Joan O ' Elannigan. Badminton Badminton has been introduced into the school this year. The girls have outdone themselves in attendance, especially the upper forms. Maybe if more girls from the lower forms turned out, arrangements could be made for a tournament. Remember girl the equipment is furnished—so why not benefit by the opportunity of¬ fered you. I GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Left to right: Vivian Arlein, Joyce Gentle.

GLEE CLUB The Glee Club, ably directed by Mr. Wass and ac¬ companied by Dawn Farrill, had as President Ina Gardiner and as Secretary Mary Coulter. Although a disappointment was suffered in that no Music Festival was held this year, the Glee Cluh put their talents to work for the benefit of the school, singing at the Commencement Assembly. Two Christmas selec¬ tions were chosen, “Hear the Ringing of the Bells and Jesus Is Born . At the Faster Assembly they pre- scutcd Vilia from The Merry Widow by Franz Lenar, and The Children’s Prayer from Haensel and Gretel. As a diversion from musical drill in January the mem¬ bers enjoyed a sleigh ride party. We hope to see the Glee Club continue its fine work next year. LITERARY SOCIETY The Literary Society has held two assemblies for the entire school so iar this year. .The first one was the Annual Christmas Party in December in which Alex Newell was Santa Claus. The other meeting was A Salute to the Armed Forces in which many of the Middle and Upper School students took part. The members of the Society included Anne Macdonald. Joan O’Flanagan. Margaret McCrecry, Alex Newell ami Jack Ryan. Miss Janes, Mrs. Hagarty and Mr. Walter were the staff advisers. CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP GROUP There are Inter-School Christian Fellowship groups in schools from Halifax to Victoria, but there arc many schools, which are not privileged to have these weekly meetings. We arc very grateful for the Inter-School Christian Fellowship groups within this school and wish to thank Mr. Walter for his enlightening of the Word to us. Our meetings are held in room 214 from 12:15 p.m. till 12:45 p.m. All students arc cordially welcomed to our meetings. ‘Come once and you’ll want to come again.

It lost two members to the Air Force, however, clarinetist Bruce Chick, and trumpeter Doug English. The orchestra assisted at the Commencement, and at several assemblies. Unfortunately there was no Annual Play and no Secondary School Music Festival, which have always been a part of the Orchestra’s curriculum for the year. Kennedy has always made a splendid show¬ ing at the Festival. Mr. Wass would like to see an increase next year in the complement of the orchestra. Don’t be afraid music lovers of K. C 1.

Wc art all familiar with the blue and gold armbands worn by a few of our students. These people are our “Prefects’ . This year, as formerly, the staff of about 60 students was chosen by Mr. Gilbert from the upper forms. As their adviser, Mr. Fox has managed to keep every¬ thing running smoothly and efficiently. On the whole, the student body ha been extremely co-operative in their acceptance of the rules and regulations, set down by our “school police. The prefects have been most helpful in keeping our school as orderly a possible, and on several occasions have given special help in conducting the crowds at basketball games. May the Prefect Organization continue to function as successfully ill future years! SOCIAL Despite the many war restrictions, four dances have been held this year. The first was a “Get Acquainted T-Dance for which the Forum Card was the admission. On December 20, the annual Commencement Dance brought many Grads back for one more Kennedy Dance. The very original decorations looked like snow, giving the ballroom a wintry atmosphere. In January the Social Committee held a roundabout T-Dancc. Among those noted were Don Gallagcr es¬ corted by Miss Alex Newell, wearing a stunning blue gown with all the trimmings. Undoubtedly the most enjoyable dance ever held at Kennedy took place on April second when the girls “dragged ’em out to the K Hop. Many a weary dancer cringed at the least mention of “conga” the next day. Multi-colored decorations were used and Jack Hick art’s artistic flower arrangement s in the l� asket were especi¬ ally note-worthy. The Social Committee consists of Gladys Sutton, June Lewis. Dorothy McF.vvan, Peggy Fuller, Catharine Knapp, John Mills, Rod Ross, Hill West, Charles Murphy and Ted Back. KENNEDY COLLEGIATE’S CONTRIBU¬ TIONS TO THE WAR EFFORT (Continued from Page 3) Magazines are being collected for the armed forces under the supervision of Mr. Beckett. The collection was started toward the end of 1942 and a steady flow has been coming in each week. Many thousands have been contributed. Our students and teachers have contributed very generously in service, livery tag clay found some of our girls tagging. They tagged in large numbers for Chinese Relief, the Blind, Polish Relief, the Navy League, Russian Relief, the Optimists, the Kinsmen and the Kiwanians. A number of our boys and men teachers are blood donors. Many of our girls and boys have g iven their help to farmers in the county. Our teachers have contributed generously in time and money to help with the war effort. Many of them attended classes in first aid. fire fighting and war gases. II contributed in buying ictory Bonds. War Savings Certificates and War Savings Stamps. When the Active Service Club opened, many of our teachers volunteered to help and this school now provides the kitchen help one Sunday a month.

SURBY, Principal 245 OUELLETTE AVENUE Entrance Between Woolworth and Kresge Stores LOWER SCHOOL NEWS Betty Anger has been seen around with Murray Moore hiit rumours say it is Jack MacMillan. Can’t you make up your mind? Lee Brown, the petit dope of 9A has been making in¬ quiries about a certain brunette in 10D. Lee watch out. she’s T.N.T. in a skirt. Chuck Manning, that personality bid of 9A has been seen around with numerous good-looking girls. Go easy Chuck, it’s spring. What would happen il June and Bob Clarke weren’t both in the same class? Why there would be simply no one to run home tor the other ' s forgotten books. Katherine Knapp, haven’t you heard at least one good joke that you could let your father in on ' He certainly does need a new supply. As Mr. Lafromboise’s old saying goes that in Spring a young man’s fancy turns at everything that passes, Gilbert Barnett of 9B seems to have spring on his mind all year around. 1 wonder who Ann Fraser gazes at in the French room while we are in Business Practice. Couldn ' t he Jim Howie could it Annie? Jn Mr. Deaglc’s room Donald Ellis and Jacqueline Eagan seem to enjoy making eyes and passing notes. The girls basketball team of 9C was so bad they asked a hoy to instruct them. They’re certainly interested in either basketball or boys. Who does Jo cc H. look at during British History period? Don’t blush Foster. What goes on in Mr. Lctourncau’s room Margaret? Could the answer be with B. L. The 9F basketball team under Harry Rousseau after winning the Junior champion ship of the school went on further to win the respect of the fifth form by one point. Never recorded before in Kennedy’s history. Where are our senior fifth formers? Have you noticed: Mr. Ryan in the hall as he’d shake his head in despair as much as to say. “Well. I’ve seen some dumb ones, but— Say Eleanor Peterson isn ' t it about time you stopped flirting with Ben Pideryhora? Bobby Richards, one of the little kids of the class. Mire gets around with the women. Alter watching Ronald Tuitc sleep 8 periods a day wc arc beginning to wonder which room is the most comfortable. Jim Spurgeon hasn’t any faith in Kennedy girls. Dur¬ ing Inner Sanctum he was caught with a smoothie from YValkerville—Oh shame! Edythe, what were you doing while watching those parked cars when you were on that camping trip this summer. Jack Ryan extends bis thanks to Mr. Lowdcn for moving Isobel next to him. Now he can look at her without straining his eyes. Why does Reva Sobcl look so tired Monday morning: Maybe she should try to get to bed before 2 o’clock on Sunday. Betty Mailloux has been rather quiet lately. Gabby was a nice guy Betty. What’s the trouble? Don Vicary goes in for red heads and when they come like Shirley who can blame him? Jt has often been said by certain 10B girls that the only reason they bother to come to school is so they can look at Bruce Philips. Why can’t Ann Propas choose her boyfriends from Canada? Do they know her too well? Why the sudden interest in the cadet band, Helen Stewart? Perhaps it’s the drummer boy. Macklenf and Hogarth would like to advertise their new funeral parlour, corner Death ami Murder in down¬ town Detroit. Drop in if you die. Remember Betty Peterson every girl can’t get a return glance from ‘Handsome’ Hogarth. If Mrs. Hagarty thinks Doug Southerland is a bad bov she ought to watch John Macklem amuse the women in his corner of the History Room. We wish Gordon Monk would stop eating his lunch in Miss Bristol’s room. The celery makes too much noise. James White is still working at the Lumber Co. I guess he ' s just a chip off the old block. Boy is that a beautiful blond Jim Summcrman com¬ municates with from Miss Stewart ' s room to Mr. Wass’s. Marilyn M. went up in more than half of her subjects this term. We gather that her heart affairs arc right up to par. Well Alda how’s the seventh period menace coming along? She needs more than a half an hour detention Mr. Ryan. Why does Agnes live over again that Saturday even¬ ing? Ts he good in anything besides basketball? Who is our jitterbug and soloist in Canadian History. Apparently Mrs Hagarty doesn’t appreciate Gotdon’s singing. Never mind Gordon your talent must come out Who is the vboy in 10C2 who wraps a towel around his hair after he washed it to keep the wave in?

And all the wood i- gay with song I like to stroll in sprinkling ram. When autumn leaves begin to fall. And squirrels are bringing in their store, I gather nuts ’neath trees so tall.

How are leaders to be provided unless we train them? Where shall they he trained if not in college? A college or university course is the most valuable asset anyone may possess. Have you investigated the opportunities offered at the University of Western Ontario? Here is your chance. Write to Dr. K. P. R. Neville, the Registrar, for particulars. GUESS WHO?

HELP WANTED When Lyle Warwick attended the Boys Parl’t. in Toronto he was asked what bad habits he had. Lyle quite puzzled replied “1 don’t know f sir!” How about helping him out by telling a lew of them? ! Nature ' s Most Perfect | Food ! MILK For Better Health How to get in good with your teachers: 1. Chew gum in all your classes. The teachers love to watch you. 2. Carve your name on every desk you sit in. This en¬ ables other pupils to write more easily on the desk. 3 . Always talk back to your teachers and call them by their lirst names. They love to consider themselves your intimate friends. 4. Throw paper on the floor and fill up your desk with it. rile janitors haven ' t much to do and they like to pick it up. 5. Always whisper to your neighbor when the teacher is talking. She or he will always smile at you if you do this. 0. Skip school any time you haven’t done your homework. Tell Mr. Ryan you skipped and you’ll get an admission slip. (To the detention room.) J o all these things for one day and see how far you’ll get. ♦ ♦ J started out that morning. For school, not far away, And little knew the sorrow, In store for me that day.

When Kennedy’s Favourite Blonde went on a hayride she was jitterbuggir.g with George Scholey. We hope you don’t think we mean it was a teacher. Kver since Lenore Moodrey had her hair cut the teachers arc seeing new kids in their class—the pupils that sit behind Lenore. Margaret Liscombe doesn’t seem too unhappy about having the front in Algebra. Could it be because “Muscles sits across the aisle. According to Mike Madach our new classmate Mar¬ jorie Newton is the cutest girl in the class. Congratula¬ tions Marjorie he hasn’t thought that about anyone since the Joyce Peterson days. It must be beginner’s luck. There is one young man who seems to have captured all the hearts of the 11th grade senoritas. I “Grant” you Pat Watson of 13 knows something about him. Come on 11B let’s all pitch in and hug Mr. Deaglc to look up the pronunciation of “centigrade”. Eunice Croll had a visitor from Boston a while ago and not content to let Eunice out of In ' s sight he travelled to all the classes with her. When we were told to write a poem for Mr. Walter, Mildred wrote on Wolves. She must have had ex¬ perience. Bob Riggs seems to think someone in Tech is U K. What’s her name, Hob? Pat Swalwell seems to do a lot of reading these days. Usually Bill Reids” books too. Why did Delores suddenly decide to like brush cuts? Maybe Jack Thorpe would know. Jack Cates will pass in French this year if he drops two other subjects, namely Jean Douglas and Betty Mc¬ Lennan. Margaret Hynd sings many tunes, but it seems she excells in “Oh, Johnny.” Bert Dean certainly changes colour when anyone sees a certain snapshot in his wallet. Not the one of his brother either. Although Barbara W ilkes is “going steady” she appears to be very interested in our fifth form. Hasn’t Jack Moncur noticed! Charles Murphy ought to take a few lessons from Boh Smith or Pete Wygant, for it is still true that, “Manners Maketh the Man.” Whenever Margaret McCreery goes round in circles, she always ends up on the “West” side of the halls. What if Mr. Knapp did what he often threatens to do, and put Jean and Max in the same seat. Be careful Mr. Knapp. Marion might not approve. No matter how hard she tries, Molly just can’t seem to snare Wilfred, but Etta seems to have done alright. 418-20 Tccumseh Road East Opp. Guppy School WINDSOR, ONT. J. E.
