20 THE KENCOLL 1944 A TRIP TO LONDON by Jean Mac Kay Some hoys from good old Kennedy Derided they would go In Wygant ' s car to London town, And save a little dough The next day bright and early They started on their way; They didn ' t know the trouble in store for them that day. A few miles out of Windsor, They were travelling in style, For.it looked as if Fete ' s an to Would cover many a mile. Hut along came Dame Misfortune With such an embrace that She left the from right tire A little more than flat. Now the state of Mr. Riggs car You know as well as 1; So it was a bit insulting When he gaily passed them by. It wasn ' t bad when the motor stalled, Or when they changed a tire; Rut there simply wasn ' t a remedy For an engine spouting fire. To add to all their misery They were turning blue with cold. For the absence of back windows Will not the storm wit hold. Six flat tires altogether 1 They changed them in the rain; They no sooner got to London Than they came back again. Next time they go to London To listen to them talk, Rather than go in Wyganfs car They’ll start right out and walk. IDEAL KENNEDY BOY Hair.... Eyes,,,. .... Smile. Physique. . Clothes. Dancing.

Inter-Form Basketball The girls of 11C1 took the inter-form basketball chain- pionship this year. All the girls deserve much credit for the time they spent practising after lour and at noon. It was a very successful schedule. Swimming Many classes turned out very good teams for the School Swimming Meet last March. 10A won the cham¬ pionship, 11C1 took honours for the girls and IOC for the boys. The inter-city swimming meet which was held on April 4 and 5 was one of the most successful meets for Kenned y in years. Our girls won the championship and Barbara Jean Paddon won the Individual Senior Girls’ Cham¬ pionship. These meets have been very well attended and we ex¬ tend our thanks to the supporters. Baseball In the fall there was a junior baseball tournament. 1002 being the winners with 9E runner-up. If enough girls are interested this term there will be a senior baseball tournament. Volleyball 9K and 11 Cl went through the schedule undefeated, but in the play-offs 9E won the championship with 11 Cl runner-up. The final game was dose and 1101 lost by two points.
