It was formally opened by Lord Willingdon on Wednesday, October 9, 1929, with a great deal of ceremony. The school was named the lion. Win. Costello Kennedy Collegiate to perpetuate and honor the memory of a pioneer leader in educational, business and civic life of the city, and a distinguished Canadian statesman. Mr. Kennedy was a member of the Privy Council and Minister of Railway and Canals, under the King administration. That the school has lived up to such expectations is readily acknowledged. From its inception Kennedy C. 1. has been an outstanding school in the province. Mr. A. G. Hooper, the first principal, helped guide its construction and was responsible for the organization of the first classes. He chose his teachers from the old Windsor Collegiate and added a few new ones to form a teaching staff of twenty. The student body of MO pupils came from Windsor C. I., the branch school which was housed in the John Campbell Public School and from the various Public Schools in the new district. After doing the ground work of organization. Mr. Hooper was selected by the Department of Kducation as High School Inspector. Mr. Campbell, then vice-principal, was chosen as principal in 1930 and carried on in that capacity until November, 1930 when he was selected by the Board of Education as the first Superintendent of schools for the city of Windsor. Dr. Whcelton. then principal of Patterson C I., was transferred to Kennedy C. I. to succeed Mr. Campbell. After the untimely death of Mr. Campbell in the summer of 1939 Dr. Whcelton became Superintendent of schools and Mr. Gilbert was appointed to succeed him. During these 25 years Kennedy has grown to a school of over 900 and the staff increased to 32 teachers. Many teach¬ ers have come and gone during , this time and at present only s event of the original twenty ' are continuing members of the staff. Some of our former students have returned to Kennedy as teachers and many of our students are children of the graduates of former years. From the very first year Kennedy C. I. demonstrated that it was a school to be reckoned with among the ether schools of the city and the province. In sports the girls Basketball team won the W.S.S.A. for several years, the football team was also right up at the top. The swimming teams produceed Olympic material as also did the track team. There arc too many outstanding names to be mentioned here but the pictures iii the halls arc silent evidence of worthy endeavour. Sports would be of little avail unless scholarship went along with them. Many of our good athletes ranked high in scholarship and won a Curry scholarship at Western. Kvery year many of our students have won high awards in the various Universities. During the early years Kennedy C. I. lived through the depression. During this time our attendance increased until it reached over the 1000 mark. In 1939 the attendance was over 1000. This was the year when war broke out and many of the boys and girls joined the armed forces. That they acquitted themselves valiantly is indicated by the large number of nanus on the honour roll. Many never returned but their names will be remembered at Kennedy as long as the school exists. While the boys fought in the armed forces the students endeavoured to see that they were remembered. Paper drives which brought in tons and tons of paper were carried on by the students. With the money raised in this way the students sent cigarettes to all the boys whose addresses were known. Circular letters also went out regu¬ larly to let them know that the students of Kennedy appreci¬ ated their effort to win the war. A favorite rendezvous for the boys on leave was Kennedy C. I. and when the war was over a very large number returned to pay their respects to their alma mater. Space docs not permit a history of our school but Mr. W. II. Downey, a well beloved former teacher has kept a scrap book for Kennedy over the years and is writing a history of our school for the twenty-fifth anniversary celebration next October. All our present day students and students of former years will then have the opportunity to read about the events that have made Kennedy one of the outstanding schools in our province.

' Phe newspaper bore the motto ISver watch¬ ful over commerce and agriculture. Pub¬ lished every Saturday morning at 10 a.m. by Robinson and Wade Hook and Job Printers, the newspaper sold for two dollars per year, if paid in advance or two dollars and fifty cents at the end of the year. The first Issue contained an editorial headed Who is this Miss Nightingale? In this short biography of the gracious young lady who was gaining recognition In the Crimean War. Miss Night¬ ingale was described as an attractive young lady closely resembling our queen. The numerous advertisements were mostly for pills, and household remedies. In the first issue tenders were requested for the building of a new gaol and court house in the town of Sandwich. There were feature articles entitled Moral AL- Instructions and Wit And Mirth. The accompanying article is a his¬ tory of Windsor from that time to this. Windsor ' s Early History Within the space of about two hundred and fifty years, Windsor has passed through the stages of virgin forest, riverside farmland, fur-trading post, village, town, and city. The cradle of settlement of Upper Canada (Ontario) is the beautiful Detroit River district, where there were several hundred settlers before the close of the French period—at a time when the rest of Ontario was a primeval wilderness. Both Americans and Canadians of to-day dwelling on either side of the Detroit River must go back to the period of the French exploration and colonization to begin the white man r s history in this area. They meet here on common ground, and may revel in the most glorious and romantic epoch in the history of America. Early Explorers Early in the spring of 1670 the first white men, Francis Dollier and de Galinee, passed through the twenty-eight miles of Le Detroit (the Detroit River) from Lake Erie to Lake St. Claire and on through into Lake Huron. They had been told of this great waterway by Louis Joliet who the previous year had passed through the strait Le Detroit when he made contact with La Salle and his party near the Grand River. On the banks of Le Detroit opposite our Windsor of to-day stood a huge Indian idol, the Manitou, who held in his hand the winds and whose voice spoke through the wild storms on the lakes. The priests, Dollier and dc Galinee, smashed this idol and erected instead a mighty cross, placing at its feet the coat of arms of France. Nine years later, La Salic in his vessel the Griffin, passed this way; and Father Hennepin, an historian priest, wrote as follows of the scenes along the river banks: “We found the country on both sides of this beautiful strait, the Detroit, adorned with fine open plains. Any number ot stags, deer, bear (by no means fierce and very good to eat), wild turkey in abundance, and all kinds of game. The islands on both shores of the straits are covered with primeval forests; fruit trees, like walnuts, chestnuts, plums and apple trees; and wild vines loaded with grapes, of which later some were gathered, and a quantity of wine made. The vast herds of deer surprised us all, and it appears to he the place of all others where the deer love to congre¬ gate!” Founding of Detroit The first (French) settlement arose as a consequence of the fur trade, for the European demand for beaver skin hats led the adventurous British and French to push farther into the wilds, each vying with the other in an attempt to win the trading friendship of the Indians to assure them domination of the particular area. Antoine Laumet de la Mothe Cadillac, the commandant at Mackinac, recommended to the governor of New France that a fort be established on Le Detroit to block the upward progress of the British rivals. Thus we find on June 1st, 1701 twenty-five canoes manned by fifty soldiers and fifty voyageurs and a number of small canoes set out from Montreal along the Ottawa and Georgian Bay Trail Forty-nine days later their expedition reached the region held to be the most suitable for the post and Detroit, “City of the Strait”, came into being. It was, however, not then called Detroit but Fort Pontchartrain after the French minister of Marine. For fifty years this settlement fought for its existence against the Indians. Assumption Church Across the river, on the site of Walkcrvillc, the Ottawa Indians established a village. Other tribes likewise settled nearby. Under Pontiac they besieged Detroit for 153 days, but finally gave up the siege. Gradually, in spite of alarms, settlements were made on both sides of the river. In 1728 a Jesuit priest arrived at Detroit and established a Huron mission on the opposite shore, where the village of Sandwich grew up. This priest, Father Pierre Potier, may be identified as “the first white man to raise his roof tree and dig a garden in what later became Upper Canada, (Ontario)”. Coming of the British When Britain conquered Canada in 1759, these French settlements were prosperous and flourishing. Not until after the Revolutionary War, however, did many British settlers come into this area. The United Empire Loyalists began to take up land in Essex County, the first of them arriving in 1784. Moy Hall Another who came to the Canadian side was Angus McIntosh, a fur trader. In 1802, he built Moy Hall, named after his ancestral home in Scotland. It was located on the corner of what are now Moy Avenue and Sandwich Street. Besides his house there were four or five other buildings with the largest facing the river. One was for storing ammunition and several for furs. There was a dock at the foot of Moy Avenue and there were two boats, one of which was the Schooner “Nancy”. At Moy Hall furs from the Upper Great Lakes were sorted, counted and packed for shipment by boat to Fort Erie, overland to Quccnston, then by boat again to Montreal, and so to the Old Country. After the Battle of Lake Erie in the war of 1812-14, the Schooner “Nancy” was the only Canadian ship on the Great Lakes. It was later sunk causing an island to be formed around it. Now the hull has been raised and is open for public inspection. Though Angus McIntosh himself returned to Scotland when he (Continued on Page 35) A THE KHNCOLL 1954 Page 7 ADAMUS, MICHAEL App.: Coal Miner F.S.: Yes, Mr. Deagle P.P.: Latin Weak.: Polkas Amb.: Electrical Engineer 1964: Electrifying Squeeze Boxes BECKETT, ALISON MARY App.: Pixey F.S.: Well now, let ' s see.

Past the stately willow leaves, AroUnd a figure on its knees, Through the slender tinsel pines, Over the pink and yellow lines. With the dawn came the sunlight,— Shining on the figure bright, Which suddenly stiffened in its pose, As sweet as the fairest waxen rose. The door being opened to the store, The figure toppled to the floor; It was swept up by the shop-girl Sadie, And that was the end of the Dancing Lady. 1st Prize Sr. —GERALD LEVINE, 12B A DESK Three feet high and made of wood; Many a year of toil it’s stood. Once it was new and shining bright But, now it is really quite a sight! Inscriptions of every sort and kind Decorate it on top and behind. Its screws are loose, and its varnish gone, Through use by many a Susie and Don. The inkwell is empty or overflowing, The seat clangs and rattles when you’re coming or going. Ancient and worn it still serves us, for, IIow would you like to sit on the floor? 3rd Prize Sr. —ELEANOR POULSEN A TYPICAL MORNING AT K. C. I. On the morning of each school day, I leave from home and wend my way To K. C. I. where you will find, The friendliest pupils of any kind. Up one of the finest campus walks, Of which we know everyone talks, Into the school and down the hall— Follow the leader one and all! Then to our lockers to get our books, And gossip a while in our own little nooks; Then into the home-room everyone goes, And seated at desks we all take a pose. The teacher then enters the classroom all smiles, And on closing the period gives homework in piles; Off to Business Practice, Science and Gym, By that time all present are feeling grim. At one minute to, books are closed and ready, Quarter to twelve the bell rings loud and steady; We all leave for lunch and go our own wav, Knowing we’ll return to,complete this school day. 3rd Prize Jr. —LYNNE DANIELS A TRIBUTE TO THE BRAVE Last night I dreamed ’neath cloudy skies. In restless slumber heard the beat Of countless millions marching by, Grow dim, as they neared a place more meet. I saw the the sorrowing, wounded ghosts With pack on back, and gun in hand, With bearded chin; yet, eyes aglow They stumbled, face ' to the promised land. They had fought, not with glory or fame in mind, But with love for home and valleys of green: Inspired, these men to their noblest deeds Were driven, by the awful Power unseen. Mused I. “Was their sacrifice all in vain? Was the piper enticing loved ones far away? Or, was it a challenge for loyal hearts To defend what is right, what is true, what is brave?” And these unknown heroes of No-Man’s-Land Who fought in the valley, and fought on the hill Were fired with loyal devotion, and truth; Unyielding, relentless, a spirit unstill. So, as the darkness of Time them enfolds. Let us not, in our pride, allow them to fall From our hearts, from our thoughts, from our words, from our minds; But exalt them, and praise them, with our conquerors all! 2nd Prize Sr. —SHEILA COLLINS, 11A KENNEDY Kennedy!

AND TALL WE FIT THEM ALL Page IS THE KEN COLL 19 S 4 ESSAYS DRIVERS INCORPORATED Most of us have learned to drive cars, are doing so, or plan to in the near future. We learn the mechanical movements of stopping and starting. But is that all there is to driving? Do we pay attention to such legal things as speed limits, or stop signs? Are we courteous to the other drivers, and pedestrians? As drivers, we ought to consider our position carefully. Consider for a moment the discourteous driver. Let’s call him Harry the Hog. All of us know his type, and maybe we are like him. Harry is the kind of man who, during office hours, is the most considerate man we know, but let him get behind the wheel of a car, and his personality changes instantly. He becomes the king of the road; it is his, and his alone. Unknown to him, he becomes the roaring, speeding, reckless man who drives for himself, and does not care for the rights of others. But on the other side of this driving picture, is the friendly fellow—Courteous Carl. He is the one who drives according to conditions and laws, and common sense. He ' does not lean on the horn because the man ahead does not start the second the light turns green. He signals before he turns a corner, and waits for pedestrians, if there are any, to cross before he does so. When he is out on the highway, he doesn’t drive on the middle of the road or dodge in and out of traffic. He drives safely, and sanely. He is the kind of man who knows, and obeys, the rules of the road. Driving is a hobby for some people, a living for some, and just transportation for others. In spite of its uses, however, driving is an art, and should be utilized by all who use the automobile. If we do, and apply our good manners to our driving, we should be the best, safest, and most courteous drivers in the world. 1st Prize —HARRY WALTER, 12B WINTER FANTASY Just as a cruel master beats his defenceless slaves, the cold wind viciously ripped through the gaunt limbs of the bare trees which loomed fear¬ lessly against the sullen sky. The dirty gray water of the lake was being lashed furiously by the savage. The snarling surf resounded thunderously as it pounded against the barren beach. A tiny, gray rabbit scurried across the bleak earth like a fugitive and disappeared over a hill. A dilapidated shed swayed perilously with every gust of the fierce wind. This bleak, desolate picture was com¬ pleted by a narrow ashen pathway which added to its dull harshness. Partly visible over another hill, a small cottage dotted the gloomy landscape with a bright blue roof. Smoke curled upward serenely as though the chimney was protected from the wind. As I looked from one dreary place to another, loneliness weighed in me. My thoughts were jumbled. Never before had I felt such melancholy. Slowly I retraced my steps. To-day I stand once more at the same place where I witnessed that depressing scene. To-day I marvel not at desolation but at beauty. Awe has captured me. I am in a fairy wonderland. Snow¬ flakes, like gleaming diamonds, gently fall on a delicate blanket of fluffy white. Each minute crystal glistens proudly as it decorates earth’s ma¬ jestic cloak. I am almost afraid to look at the trees, for I am certain the magic beauty of the falling snow cannot be excelled. Dubiously I look, to see another fairy¬ land. The trees look lordly in their new white capes. The branches are weighted down with glit- enng elegance. Over-night a lacy fairy-land has taken the place of the desolation. The broken-down shed seems almost upright, for it has not been forgotten. It too, is arrayed in gorgeous garb. My little rabbit friend sits on the top of the hill gazing at the new-fallen wonder. I have to smile, because I see that the change has reached him also. He has a new white coat of fur. Peace and quiet prevail as the smoke from the snow-covered cottage slowly spiral towards the heaven. As I stand and look at my winter wonderland, I feel very insignificant. Now, and only now, have I realized what had mystified me the day before. This is nature’s way to show man how unimportant he ready is. 2nd Prize —MARY RAPAWY, 12B THE CITIES BY THE RIVER How time does fly! It is hard to believe that about two hundred years have passed since a few stalwart pioneers led by Cadillac, first settled on the banks of the very little travelled Detroit River. What adventures they must have had and what hardships too! Riding in their bark canoes along the swiftly flowing river, they could not possibly have dreamed that two magnificent industrial cities would grow upon its banks in the years to come. But before this transformation of the land ccfuld take place, the forests had to be tamed and the many difficulties between two neighbouring coun¬ tries had to be ironed out. The settling of the latter involved a few wars, but since then a strong bond of friendship has been built up between the two nations. Detroit, the big brother, is twice as old and many times larger than Windsor, but this does not interfere with the friendliness and co¬ operation between them. When Detroit celebrated its two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, Windsor was on hand to take part in the activities. This year when Windsor celebrates its centennial, the city across the river will add extra features to the programme. Other actions of friendliness which will be enacted in the years to come can be left to the imagination, but one can be certain that every year will show a greater bond of common ideals and friendship between the border cities. 3rd Prize —SUSAN ROSS, 11A Tl-Ili KliNgOLL 19 5 -4 Page 19 Dear Diary: To-day we had a tea-dance in the gym, for the first time this year. There was a good turnout (grade niners for the most part) and everyone had a good time dancing to the music of the “Rain- beaus” which has several boys in it from our own school. I do hope we have another very soon. P.S.: I’ve heard some rumours that a few lucky girls got date-bids for the Sleighbell at this dance. Could that possibly have been its purpose—I won¬ der? December 18, 1953 Dear Diary: Kennedy’s 5th Annual Sleighbell Prom was held to-night. As usual the Social Committee planned the gorgeous decorations. The customary Christ¬ mas tree lighted the gym with beautiful colored lights from the centre of the dance floor. These brilliant lights were also reflected from the mir¬ rored ball which revolved slowly at the centre of the ceiling. Alternating red, green and white streamers added to the festive decorations. Novelty decorations were used for the backboards—alter¬ nately, three of the backboards dislayed red poin- settias and huge white bells on a green background and the other three wore snowflakes and lovely white poinsettias and a red background. Icicles on the rim of the baskets made us remember that it was winter. On cither side of the cokestand two lifesize Santa Clauses pointed gaily to the refresh¬ ments at intermission. Above the cokestand Ru¬ dolph, with his shiny nose, was about to begin his flight with Santa in his silver tinsel sleigh and pack. A grand march, led by Mr. and Mrs. Ward, highlighted a splendid evening. Everyone is look¬ ing forward to the next Sleighbell Prom in 1954 Kennedy’s 25th Anniversary. —MARY RAPAWY Dear Diary, I o-nighl was the night of Kennedy’s annual Roundabout; the “K-Hop.” A capacity crowd danced under a lovely fcanopy of blue and gold streamers. Coloured lights were reflected onto the dancers by the sparkling mirrored ball as it slowly revolved in the centre of the canopy. The stage was decorated in gold and blue also. A huge gold “K” stood out on a lovely blue background dotted with tiny stars. Each backboard was decor¬ ated by the colourful letters of the various schools. During intermission many couples took advantage of the novel “cokestand” with its gay blue and gold canopy. A wonderful orchestra and whirling couples completed this picturesque scene. The dance, enjoyed by couples from all schools, was a tremendous success. This dance highlighted the social events of the school year.

THE GREEN-EYED RUSSIAN The Russian pilot sweated nervously as the French fighters trapped him in their formation. Indistinct crackling in his ears acompanied the challenge of Gutershafen air base, yet two hundred miles away. The pilot’s brows creased in anxiety, his eyes, kindled by trepidation to a watery gleam, emphasized his dark, emaciated features. The beads of sweat stood out on a red, rubbery neck. He licked cracked lips. “Don’t shoot! . . . I . . . escape . . . help me!” Forty minutes later the sleek Russian jet hum¬ med to a stop on the new United Nations air-base in Western Germany. The pilot’s reception com¬ mittee was imposing. Twenty-four machine-guns, two radar-controlled anti-aircraft batteries, and the base’s fire brigade lined the runway showing clearly Western skepticism bred during the Communist regime, of anything Russian. The first move was made by the intruder. Un¬ folding his massive frame from the cramped cock¬ pit, he waved frantically ' friendly greetings to the sidelines. An advance guard of four military policemen surrounded the airman and marched him with care to their superiors stationed at the edge of the field. After excited dialogue and translation, during which time he was diligently searched, the party moved i nto the Gutershafen personnel headquarters. The next morning Western newspapers and radio-broadcasts carried reports of the Russian pilot who had escaped the “Iron Curtain” and was now receiving political asylum” somewhere in Western Germany. “He had brought with him to the West, the newest type Russian fighter which Western defence officials were now studying . . .” In the Gutershafen personnel room, the huge, green-eyed ex-air officer sat in an arm-chair, eyeing everything and everyone suspiciously. Now that he had told his story once, he became stubbornly taciturn. Serge Tchaizousky—that much they knew. He had decided to escape because of hunger and the unjust cruelty which he saw around him. He realized that in the Communist regime he was but an automaton and that as an automaton, he must execute his orders with mechanical correctness or be discarded as a worn cog in the machine of totali¬ tarian efficiency. “Radio Free Europe” had por¬ trayed to him a life where individuals have indivi¬ dual rights, among them security and the freedoms of speech and of worship, from fear and from want. Still skeptical, he risked the dangers of the life he had known, and dared the ever-fearful Unknown, to seek freedom. Still suspicious, he sat amid the noise and con¬ fusion of his new situation. He decided to com¬ promise. In broken English he pointed out that he would speak only to one man and designated Colonel Alberts of France. The rest left grumbling, unwillingly. The colonel locked the door. Three hours later, Colonel Rene Alberts opened the door and handed his written statement to secretary Nolan. “I suggest,” said the former, “that we fly Tchaizousky into Luxembourg to-night.” There was, as he had expected, immediate dis¬ sension. But he stood firm, and his continued good sense made its mark on the faces of his disappoint¬ ed, covetous comrades. They all agreed that the Russian should be sent to neutral territory as soon as possible, and finally concurred with the French¬ man’s suggestion. At eleven o’clock that night, Serge Tchaizousky boarded an American transport. Only he and the officers at Gutershafen knew his destination. The plane bounced feelingly along the Luxem¬ bourg landing-strip approximately three hours later. Where it taxied to a coughing halt, the transport was subtly outlined against the milky haze of the distant city. An opaquely black sky envelop¬ ed three figures and precipitated welcome secrecy to their operations. They walked quickly, silently, the long walk to the passenger retaining gate where the glow of a cigarette preceded the appearance of a fourth figure. Like a chain reaction, the trio decomposed discharging the middle figure which quickly united with the fourth to leave the scene. Following the latter pair, one would have noticed their singular path to avoid observations. Em¬ ploying cut-backs, sudden halts and short runs, the pair finally terminated their erratic course inside a great limousine. The machine left the airport, and soon the city limits, at a moderate rate of speed. It was not until the limits had been reached, moreover, that words passed between the two occu¬ pants. “It will be another two hours drive, sir. Mon¬ sieur Poireau advises you to try to sleep.” Serge grunted. Soon his small head slumped on his huge chest and he began to snore in the gurgl¬ ing. gutteral language common to all people. He awoke with an instinctive nervous start before a small farm-house, framed in the first rays of the Eastern sun. Serge steadied himself and guided himself through the open door. “Greetings, Tchaizousky,” breathed the small fat man with outstretched hand. “Quickly, this way.” The Russian straightened, his eyes flashed com¬ prehension and his whole attitude bespoke a co¬ operation that Gutershafen had never known. He seemed earger to begin his duties in the service of the United Nations Security Intelligence. The pair marched through several rooms, all typical of the rustic Luxembourg farm-house. The library, however, offered an imposing contrast. The room was clearly intended for safety and privacy. The house had been so constructed that this room was enclosed by three other rooms and an inner hall-way. To the interested observer, THE KEN COLL 1954 Page 25 these security precautions emphasized Monsieur Poireau’s importance. But Serge took no notice of minor details. His eyes were trained in self-satisfaction on the little fat man now ritually involved in bolting his library door. The greasy one turned, showed an excellent set of false teeth in an evident attempt at a grin, and wheezed: “Again, greetings, Comrade Tchaizousky.” “Congratulations on a hard assignment, well executed. It seems you had no difficulty?” “The credit is all Alberts,” said Serge modestly. “But for him I should be now in some other stupid hole.” The fat man waddled to the cocktail cabinet and produced a bottle and two glasses. “Then let us drink to your success . . . and Monsieur Alberts!” The two members of the United Nations Security Intelligence raised the crystal to their lips. “. . . And to the success of the Party,” added the green-eyed Russian. —ROD MacGREGOR, 13A FIRST PRIZE THE LAST RESORT The good-natured doctor bustled into the sick room and, immediately, crossed to the sick bed. He frowned as he took a quick glance at his small patient, but turned and gave a reassuring smile to the worried mother. As is the usual custom, the first thing he did was to take the patient’s pulse and temperature. The physician noted with alarm that the child had an exceedingly high fever. With a little coaxing, the reluctant child finally swallowed two white pills which the doctor produced. Confident that the tiny white capsules would solve the problem, the doctor left, promising to return in a few hours. However, when he retuned, not much later, he found his patient still raging with fever. At first, he was undecided as to what to prescribe now. After a few moments of thought, he took from his bag a small bottle filled with a clear liquid. The child, who was now too miserable to care, took the medicine without resistance; but this too had no effect on the patient’s condition. The doctor’s face became a study of pensive thought. He came to the conclusion that the only thing left to do was to operate, and he informed the worried parent of his decision. “Well then,” replied the little mother picking up her doll by its arm, “I s’pose we better go and oper¬ ate on the kitchen table, cuz there is more room there.” “Yeah, I guess that’d be best,” agreed the grimy, freckle-faced physician, as he popped a peppermint pill into his mouth and shoved the bottle of water into the pocket of his jeans. —JEAN LONG, 13A THIRD PRIZE HUMOUR Grade Niner: Which is the most important, the sun or the moon?

Does Mary Nelson really like “Dave”? Why is it Paul Pennington never gets his Latin homework done? Did Bill Sawchuk really get hurt playing “football” this year? Why does Ginny Bzdziuch spend so much time at Mario’s after 4? Does Larry pay a dime to phone Marilyn Leschied every night? Was it scarlet fever or spring fever that Marguerite Kerr had? —MARILYN LESCHIED 12B Our school year opened with elections. Pat Saf- rance was elected president, Bob Nykor vice-presi¬ dent, and Anne Deneiko treasurer. No time was wasted, and a party was planned. This was followed up by many others, at which all had loads of fun. Our class is well represented in all school activities. There have been a few unanswered questions in 12B, such as: Has Sandra Brunt figured what makes lime water turn green? What noted lady teacher fell head first into a snowbank at a certain skating party? What girl always meets Mr. Ryan at 9:01 A.M.? Why does Bob Nykor always get excuse slips in French? Did “Lulu” really mean it when he said “Here I come Baby”? What 12B student refused to play “Cupid” in our play? In closing, our class would sincerely like to thank Mr. Bishop for taking such an interest in our class and for being such a wonderful home room teacher. —COMBINED EFFORTS 12C Our class of 12C is the best to be had, We are not so good, but not so bad. We do our homework, but not at home, For someone’s books we always loan. Geometry we do exceptionally well, That’s why all our Geometry tests fell. But compass work is just our line, For angles and lines we do just fine. English is the period of the day, When sleep comes easy on a bed of hay (?) Henry does this, and Henry does that, What is this about an old, dead cat? But every day we appear at school, For we think Kennedy is “real cool.” We like school, school likes us, And we of 12C, make no fuss. —JANET LONG 1ID Mr. Wass, our home teacher, is master of a very select group of boys and girls. We have girls with style, hair of gold, and dreamy eyes. And such boys! Dashing, sporty, dandie’s, but all the very best — we think! If you don’t know them, you should.

Ed Marshall and Ed Ciesluk are real great guys, John Daichendt and John Buda deserve a prize. Helen and Alice are gals who rate, Bill and Jim are sometimes late. Harold and Doug are kinda shy, Orillia and Gail B. are sweet as pie. Sheila and Barbara eat their Wheaties, Deane and Richard break their treaties. Paul Dunseath and Frank are very good pals, Susan Pearse and Sandra are two cute gals. Paul Goddard and Bruce just can’t be beat, Elizabeth and Marlene are really sweet. Barbara and Verlie Armstrong are two small pearls, Susan Ross and Margaret Tay are real nice girls. George Shelley and A1 sure stick together, Alex and George are birds of a feather. All the kids in 11A are the best that one could hope for. Everyone has lots of fun; we couldn’t possible have more. 1 IB We are the class of eleven B. We’re lots of talent as you can see. At the head of the class, Mr. Mahon’s captain, When he’s in sight there’s surely no nappin’. There is Helen with brains galore; And Jerry who hopes to beat her score. Ed’s a riot with the girls, And strongly admires Clarice’s curls. Don Cole is our humour man, Who gets us in plenty of jams. Burke’s the kid who likes to know why, And Lane’s the fellow who always gets by. Judy, Bev, Pat and Sylvia as a basketball team. To win a game you should see them scheme. There’s Spendlove and Ernie the cheerful gals Who get along like the best of pals. Diane and Bonnie have their troubles And Carolyn thinks Physics is all bubbles. So this about ends the group that keeps us gay From the 9:00 o’clock bell to the end of the dav. —PHYLLIS SMITH ' 11C (1) This the class of 11C (1) Who never seems to be on the run. We have 30 girls and four lonely boys, And, of course, they make all the noise. Our little Rosalie is the brain And Virginia is always trying to gain. Jean Spencer is the giggling type, And Velma usually goes out all night. Betty Conn is our prettiest girl Maxine and Rhoda turn on the charm And that makes John very alarmed. Don Scoulfield has pitch black hair, And George just can not sit right in a chair. Willy is a big hockey and football player, Our Carol Tobin could act a little gayer. This is only part of our class And I am sure we all will pass. —VIRGINIA TRATECIIAUD 10 A Last September Fred Muroff was elected presi¬ dent and Eleanor Greenhow was elected vice-presi¬ dent. After much discussion we successfully staged our first party at Sandra Bennett’s house on De¬ cember 5. Our second party was held after a bas¬ ketball game late in January at Frances Chamber’s house. Nine students entered the oratorical con¬ test after much persuasion from Mrs. May, our English teacher. Albert Yuzpe won the Junior Boys’ Contest for the second year and Fred Muroff managed to place second. In the Junior Girls’ contest Anita Tarcia, Margaret Prochiuk and Carol Dungy took all three places in this respective order. The other entrants from our class were Phil Feld¬ man, Bernie Lyons, Fred Lewin and Pat Plumb. Other students in 10A participated in the orchestra, glee club and in athletic events. Mr. Letourneau, our homeroom teacher, as well as our other teach¬ ers often become angry because of our noise. Nevertheless it is a great pleasure to be in a class as unusual as my class—10A. —FRED MUROFF Mr. Green (during a health examination): “All right, Young, turn in your paper.

The latter part of the year has been quite active. Dave Pennington, our star athlete, was on the Football and Senior Basketball teams. Wayne French was on the Junior Basketball team. In girls’ sports, Lorraine Pidgeon and Sandra Krause were on the Junior Volleyball team and Lillian Sediva was on the Basketball team. Sandra Krause was our representative for the Girls’ Athletic Committee. We had our class party at the home of Roberta Rankin before Christmas which turned out quite successful. Plans for a few more are under way. Our homeroom teacher is Mr. Ward. All in all we have had a very successful year. —LILLIAN SEDIVA IOC As you wander down the main hall, second floor, at 9:00 on any morning of the week, except Fri¬ day, you will come to the famous room 214, the home of Miss J. McNeill and her sleepy-eyed group of teenagers called 10C. If you stop to see what is going on you will see our President, Elinor Libby, standing at the front of the room hoping that Vice President Gary Rogers will come up with some new idea like having a party. We have had four parties, the first of which was a hayride from Ilancs in Roseland; the second a party at the home of Bill Lewick, the next at the home of Bob Andrews, and our latest was at the home of our great basket ball “hero” (using the word loosely) Gary Rogers. All in all we are a very happy class, and will try to stay to-gether the rest of our years at Kennedy. —ELINOR LIBBY 10D This energetic??? class of 10D is headed by John White and Ken Reid. Our contributions to the Rifle Team are Mike Mitchell and Jack Lowry, with John White, our ambitious president, doing his best on the hockey team. Such mermaids as Bar¬ bara McGhee and Liz Fabu are our representatives on the girls’ swimming team. Diane Hebert is the “class brain” but Laurene Maven and Pat McCreadv aren’t too far behind her. Although the boys seem to try hard, the girls outdo them in most of their intellectual abilities, and Marv Goldin is about the only one who succeeds outdoing some of the girls.

(An interesting conclusion to this storv is that the gravestone of Angus McIntosh’s wife has recently been dug up in the graveyard beside the Am¬ bassador Bridge.) St. John ' s Church In 1796, the first year of the actual settlement of Sandwich, a log building was erected to serve as a church. This was the first Protestant church in the Detroit River district. It was built by Pollard, an American who became a minister at the age of fifty. It was destroyed by the Americans later, but it was rebuilt. Several additions have been made to the original building which is located on the corner of Brock and Sandwich Streets. Pollard was buried in the cemetery beside the church he built, known as St. John’s Anglican Church. Sandwich itself gradually became a flourishing settlement, for lots were given to persons who would erect buildings. Baby House—Windsor ' s Museum Another house built by the same French gentleman, the Honourable James Baby, is locally known as the Baby House. Built, it is thought, in 1812, it is still standing in down-town Windsor. War of 1812-14 There came then to Canada the bitter war of 1812-14 in which this area was engulfed. Fort Malden, at Amherst- burg, was the British base, and from here there took place the retreat of the British to Moraviantown where the gallant Indian chief, Tecumseh, was killed; our neigh¬ bouring town of Tecumseh bears his name. Windsor Grows In 1812 the site of Windsor, apart from Sandwich and Walkerville, was only a meadow forming a part of Colonel Francis Baby’s farm. The farmhouse itself was located near the corner of the present Church and Sandwich Streets. In 1828 Windsor was established as a stagecoach village. It was first called “The Ferry”, because it had a log canoe used to carry passengers, freight, and mail to Detroit. ;The fare was 25c for the round trip.) In 1827 the small steamship “Argo” was placed in service by the Americans and there has been steamboat service on the Detroit River ever since. To-day it is said to be one of the busiest inland rivers in the world. By 1833, Windsor had fifteen or twenty wooden houses as well as several of brick. The opinion was that “the village will soon eclipse Sandwich and may rival Chatham”. In 1837 Windsor was known as Richmond. By the 1840’s it was a place of considerable importance, due to the American tariff, for there seems to have been some smuggling of British goods by the Americans from Windsor to Detroit. From 1824 to 1837 the population of all Essex County had doubled from 4,274 to approximately 9,000. Of special interest in this Centennial Year is the fact that in 1854 at a meeting in the Royal Windsor Hotel, Sandwich and Ferry Streets, Windsor was declared a village. Slaves from the United States During the period between 1820 and 1826 many escaped negro slaves arrived in Canada at Amherstburg and settled at Amherstburg and Sandwich. To them the credit must be given for establishing what is now the great tobacco industry of Essex County. An interesting inscription may be found on the stone front of the bank of Montreal in Windsor on Ouellette Avenue North. It says: “Here the slave found freedom. Before the United States Civil War of 1861 65, Windsor was an important terminal of the underground railroad. Escaping from bondage, thousands of fugitives, slaves from the south, men, women, and children, landing near this spot found in Canada friends, freedom, and protection under the British flag.” An interesting church, built in 1851 and one of the oldest buildings in Ontario, is Sandwich Baptist Church, serving a coloured congregation. Kennedy Collegiate Our own school, the Honourable W. C. Kennedy Col¬ legiate Institute, was opened in 1929. It, too, stands on historic land. Once virgin foyest, it then became a part of the French farms. These were numbered from Turkey Creek: the farm by Turkey Creek was number one. Ken¬ nedy is situated on what was lot number 84, owned by Josh L’Espcrance, and half of number 85, owned by Julian Parent. Lot 85 was later sold to a man named James McDougall. A lot was approximately a block in width. Windsor’s growth, fascinating and romantic, and reach¬ ing back into the past for almost two and one half cen¬ turies, is a part of the larger history of the opening of a vast continent. In our young country, Windsor becomes then one of the oldest cities in Canada with a past rich in historical lore and legend through Indian, French, and British occupancy, and enriched by settlers from other lands. ROVING REPORTER Question: What improvements do you think should be made in our school? Why? Tommy Tobin, IX: The lockers in the school are too small, espe¬ cially for the grade niners. We have to share our lockers with another person and they are too small for that. I think that the school should buy more lockers so that no one has to share lockers. Joan Morianti, X: We should have better food in our cafeteria and there should also be a greater variety. Susan Ross, XI: Well, the platform or stage that we use for our assemblies is very dangerous, especially for the cheerleaders or anyone dancing. I suggest that the school purchase a portable platform that would assure safety to those who perform on it Leendert Bink, XII: I think that the student body should be better informed on forum meetings. Bill Tepperman, XIII: The path on the school grounds opposite Vickers should be paved. The reason for this is that Mr Gilbert won’t have to expel anybody for cutting across the grass. —SHARON RENE COHEN ROVING REPORTER GROUP L. Blnk T. Tobin J. Morianti S. Ross Page 36 T H E KEf COLL 19 5 4 CLUB INTER SCHOOL CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP This group meets weekly in the cafeteria to enjoy special speakers, sing songs, and informal Bible studies. It is non-denominational and anyone is welcome to attend. This past year it has been well attended, and the members enjoyed social activities such as weiner roasts, hay-rides and parties. This group provides opportunity for mem¬ bers to cultivate and express their Christian faith. —ELEANOR GREENHOW CHESS CLUB Even before the club was officially opened for the year, it could be noticed throughout the school, that certain diehards were planning on new strategies. The battle of the second semester was between the master of the Laframboise era, Mr. Laframboise, and the club president, Dennis Maguire. Said Mr. Laframboise after a sound defeat, “Maybe I should get my kid to teach me the game!” Cheer up, Sir, maybe you will beat him when the students will meet the teacher in a match sometime in the near future. Our thanks go to Mr. Donahue, the club organizer, to Dennis Maguire, Gail Girard, and to Ihor Zeleney for their assistance. IHOR ZELENEY LET US SING Under the able leadership of our director, Miss McNeil, our Girls’ Glee Club presented “The Best Things in Life Are Free” at our Christmas assembly. The Secondary Schools’ Festival was on March 3rd. There were many practices after school and of course the frequent practices in school hours. By Festival time, we were well trained and pre¬ sented “I Heard a Forest Praying” and “The Best Things in Life Are Free.” Many thanks from all of us go to Miss McNeil who has spent many hours and much patience with us. —GERALJEAN PLATTEN THE JUNIOR RED CROSS Last fall we made beanies out of yellow and blue felt with yellow tassels, and sold them for 25 cents each. At Christmas time we decided to help fold bandages for the cancer patients at different schools. We find the Red Cross work interesting and educational. —CAROL PORT ORCHESTRA Once a week fifteen students climb with music stands and cases to the gym where for one period a week under the capable direction of Mr. Wass the orchestra is “in practice.” They made an ap¬ pearance at the graduation where in addition to several selections they played “Merrily” as pro¬ cessional and they ably accompanied the Christmas assembly. In March they are to appear in the Sec¬ ondary Schools Music Festival. For this occasion the selections “My Hero” and “In An Eighteenth Century Drawing Room’ have been carefully pre¬ pared. This has been a busy and successful year for the orchestra. —CAROL DUNGY, 11A SIS-BOOM-BAH! The cheerleaders under the supervision of Mr. Durrant led our high spirited cheering section in cheering our football team on to the finals. Here in the bitter cold weather we were defeated by only one point. The weather, however, did not stop the enthusiastic cheering. The squad this year con¬ sisted of Gail Beausoleil, Alice Duxter, Barbara Massey, Paul Pennington, Jack Ruttle and Mike Pritchard. The subs were Judy Eagen, Shirley Rising, Ernie Russell and Reg Spencer. Ernie also entertained those in the stands with her brilliant acrobatics. A slogan contest was held each week, in order to boost school spirit and football tickets were given to the winners. The basketball attend¬ ance was also tops and the cheering gave our teams something to work for. —BARBARA MASSEY THE KENNEDY COLLEGIATE TROPICAL FISH CLUB About the middle of September, 1953, Bryan Leighton and Bobby Dean of 9H, decided to start a new club at Kennedy. Both of us being interested in Tropical Fish, we came to an agreement on starting a Tropical Fish Club. Mr. Thomson gave his consent to direct the club; or and the rest was up to the students. We decided at the beginning of November to increase the knowledge of tropical fish for the students. This thought was followed by giving a lesson having to do with care of Tropical Fish, then after a few weeks they gained more knowl¬ edge from aquariums that we had set up. That is the story of a young club at our school which participates in the seemingly “unknown” hobby of “Keeping Tropical Fish.” —BOBBY DEAN ALTIORA PETO This has been a good year for the Altiora Pcto. Many meetings have been held with regular attend¬ ance. There are not many members but what we lack in numbers we gain in talent. The posters in the halls have all been very good. Many thanks go to our Altiora Peto for making our school colour¬ ful this year. —GENEVIEVE BZDZIUCH THE OCTETTE The members of the Octette, under Mr. Ward’s very capable direction, prepared music which was sung at a concert in Toronto during the Easter vacation. At the Christmas assembly and the annual Kennedy Collegiate Commencement Exer¬ cises we sang two Christmas carols, “The West¬ minster Carol’ and “Unto Us a Bov Is Born.” —JO-ANNE FORSTER THE KEN COLL 195 4 Pafje 37 i —a—BBPH—i—MBB——MiBHTW IPliroM BUGLE BAND Fourth Row: Mr. Ward.

CADET CORPS The past year was one of the most active years in Kennedy C.I. as far as the Cadet Corps was concerned. C Lt. Col. Ron Pull was appointed commanding officer and with the assistance of the instructors and other officers, the cadet corps was whipped into excellent shape. The Signal Corps put on one of the most ambitious schemes it has attempted in recent years with demonstrations of the history of communication. The Precision Squad put on a creditable show, but it was not good enough to beat the really spectacular show put on by the Band. This was the first time in a number of years that the Band has won the special platoon trophy. The Corps was also very active through¬ out the year in its participation in training schemes both at Cedar Springs, and the large army camps at Ipperwash and Borden. —RICHARD ROWE SCHOOL SPIRIT CLUB The purpose of the School Spirit Club is to plan our school assemblies and promote school spirit. This year as always was another hectic, event- packed year. Many will still remember the mys¬ terious “Where’s 54?” signs hanging from the hall ceiling. While others will recollect the strange “men” with the black waistcoats, bowler hats and butterfly nets wandering throughout the school carrying the captured “dummy” halfback of the Patterson Panthers. There was a great deal of hard work that made this year’s club a successful one, and produced much enjoyment. One of the results of this work was the bulletin board which kept the school posted on our activities. —BOB KRAUSE THE EXCHANGE This year the Kencoll exchange included about twenty fine school magazines which we found interesting and inspiring. “The Volt” from Ingersoll District Collegiate In¬ stitute featured exceptionally large pictures of their school organizations. We noticed that Ingersoll has cadets for girls as well as boys. “Breezes” from Daniel McKintyre C. F„ Winni¬ peg, was well put together and very enjoyable with large clear pictures. We especially liked the numer¬ ous candid shots. “The Pelham Pnyx ’ from Fenwick, Ontario, feat¬ ured an extensive literary section. ' I ' his school really hums with social events which keep a steady pace throughout the school year. These social high¬ lights were especially well-written. “The Argus,” Sault Ste. Marie C. F„ is really a king-sized magazine, distinctly divided into well- organized and interesting sections. We especially liked the artistic title pages for each division. They certainly must be proud of that football team as there was an individual picture and write-up for each member. We would now like to send our thanks and gratitude to all those who made this year’s exchange successful by sending us their yearbooks. —ALISON BECKETT BOYS ' VOLLEYBALL Our school has a volleyball team, This year, city champs, The coach, the best, the players, well At times we played like tramps. At times we lacked initiative, At others, we were in, Sometimes we lost our self-control, But never the will to win. But greatest of all we had support, It came from very few, This support was very well given, And for it we thank you. —EARL FLETCHER, 13B KENNEDY FOOTBALL TEAM 1953 The gold and blue Clippers had another very fine team this year. Throughout the entire season the players gave all they had to make our coach’s debut a successful one. Congratulations are in order for Mr. Arnott, our coach who turned in a splendid record for his first year of high school coaching by himself. Mr. Green must also be thanked for the help he gave at the begining of the year. The team consisted of thirty-seven boys this year, one of the largest teams in recent years at Kennedy. Six of the gridders from Kennedy C.I. made the “All-City” team. Their names are: Ron Maniacco, John McKay, Earl Rosenbaum, Stan Young, Chuck Safrance and Zoltan Kovacs. During the regular season the golden Clippers won four games and lost one, the scores being: Kennedy 28 vs. 0 Lowe Vocational Kennedy 27 vs. 3 Assumption Kennedy 5 vs. 12 Patterson Kennedy 27 vs. 6 Walkerville Kennedy 18 vs. 12 Forster In the semi-final game against Assumption the gold and blue ran wild over the gridiron and de¬ feated Assumption 30 to 0. This was expected to be a very close game. In the sudden-death final Kennedy lost out to a very determined Patterson Panther squad by a score of 6-5. It was a heart- breaker for many of the boys to take because many of them arc graduating this year and they wanted to make it a winning one. ZOLTAN KOVACS, 12D GOLF 1953-54 The W.S.S.A. Golf Tournament was played at the Dominion Golf Club this year. Of the seven teams which participated, Kennedy, who was expected to win, finished third and the team from Forster copped top honours. However, we look forward to winning the championship next year. (Continued on Page 40) BOYS ' VOLLEYBALL Second Row: G. Freed, C. McCaffcry, D. Buratto, Mr. A. Bishop, B. Teppcrman, L. Whipple, J.

Members of this year’s team were Ted Tutton, Lance Whipple, Richard Woodall, Dean Hutchinson, and Dean Morrison. Mr. Ward, our fine coach, should also be congratulated on his excellent job of coaching the team. Thanks are in store for Richard Woodall who volunteered the services of his father’s golf range for practice purposes. LANCE WHIPPLE SENIOR BASKETBALL The senior basketball team of the season of ’53 and ’54 were strong contenders in the W.S.S.A. basketball league. Under the skilful coaching of Mr. George “Gunner” Arnott, we were able to pull up to the city final with Patterson. Having lost only three league games, one to Assumption and two to Patterson, we made our way to the semi¬ finals in which we beat Assumption by a five- point margin. Unfortunately, we lost to Patterson in the final game by six points. Once again the Blue and Gold Clippers would like to thank Mr. Arnott, our coach, and Bill Saw- chuk. our manager, for pulling us through a suc¬ cessful season. —ROY BIELICII JUNIOR BASKETBALL Last year, the 1952-53 Junior Basketball squad, having a superb term, won the W.O.S.S.A. cham¬ pionship for Kennedy. This year, however, having a whole new squad, the Juniors could not retain their title although they put forth a valiant effort. By mid-season they had beaten only Lowe Voca¬ tional while losing to Assumption, Forster, Walker- ville and Patterson crews by scant points in bit¬ terly-contested games. Next year’s Junior Basketball team will probably consist of veteran players and they’ll be battling again to regain the title for Kennedy. —JIM GRETES SCHOOL TENNIS TOURNAMENT In its second year our school tennis tournament was a great success. Everyone showed a great deal of enthusiasm—spectator as well as participant. There was hardly a noon-hour when there was not a crowd gathered at our courts. This must be cred¬ ited to the keen competition. Joel Glynn battled his way to the Junior and school championships and Paul Pennington defeated Lauren Zielig for senior honours. —PAUL PENNINGTON, 12A- SOC CER The soccer team at Kennedy this year did not win the W.S.S.A. Championship but it reached the final of the city championship. In the final it was a hard tussle all the way with Walkerville but we were defeated by the score of 2-0. Although the team was weakened by the loss of a few of last years’ players, it developed into a first rate team under the capable coaching of Mr. Thompson, who undertook that task from Mr. Mahon who was ill. At the end of the regular season Kingsville paid a return visit to Windsor, the game ended in a 4-4 tie. —GEORGE CALDWELL T II K KEN COLL 195 4 Page 41 BOYS 7 SCHOOL TEAMS SENIOR HOUSE LEAGUE FOOTBALL Second Row: S.

GIRLS ' BASKETBALL The senior girls’ basketball team began the 1953- 54 season with a sizzling opener against Vocational. Throughout the game the score see-sawed, and with a tie score ending the fourth quarter, overtime became necessary. With unerring accuracy Pat Safrance swished a foul shot deciding victory in Kennedy’s favour, 29-28 In spite of this successful beginning, and long ardent practices (including some at eight o’clock) wasn’t able to click. Many of our game proved thrill¬ ing and exciting and were lost by only a small margin. Although we ended in cellar position the girls were good sports and full of spirit during the season, largely due to the leadership of our coach, Miss Brewer, Captain Pat Safrance and Manager Joanne Clarkson. Those of us who will be leaving this year have one wish for our coach. Miss Brewer, and those who will be playing next year and that is, 1954-55 brings a Girls’ Basketball Championship to Kennedy. PAT BOLTON SENIOR VOLLEYBALL This year our senior volleyball team gave every school a good game, but unfortunately we didn’t win all of them. We had fun, however, working to¬ gether led by our captain, Carol Anderson. We would like to thank our few loyal supporters, especially the football team. Also we would like to express our thanks to our coach, Miss Lozoway. P.S.: Ilow about a few more supporters for next year? —PAT SAFRANCE GIRLS ' SWIMMING The K.C.I. mermaids are successfully working their way towards the W.S.S.A. championship this year. They beat Patterson 51-42 and Forster 73-21. The speedsters who put out very good performances were Virginia Mackie, Delores Doan, Maureen Mar¬ shall, Beverly Vickers, Pat Thompson and Sylvia Wolfe. Also, aiding the work of the swimmers was the diving of Pat Bolton, Ann Benca, Pat Thompson. Although all these girls are good swimmers, they could not have been successful without the splendid coaching of Miss Lozoway. The whole team wishes to express their sincere thanks to her. She inspired the team and kept them working hard. We arc planning to win the W.S.S.A. championship for her on April 14. P.S.: We would like to thank the students who showed good school spirit by attending our meets. —PAT THOMPSON AND SYLVIA WOLFE Page -l-t T I I K K li N C O L L 19 5 4 SPORTS GIRLS ' VOLLEYBALL Second Row: M.

Thanks go to our timer, scorekeepers and referees, also to our few loyal supporters. On behalf of the team I would like to extend our special thanks to our wonderful coach, Miss Lozoway, who did a terrific job with the team. —JOAN MORI ANTI OUR SWIMMING TEAM There they go with speed galore, Adding points to Kennedy’s score. Back and forth through the water they go. Giving the audience a wonderful show. Speed is the word for all the races, They have been put through their paces. Exercise after exercise they practised each day, And now at last their hard work will pay. In style they also are the best, The folks will come from east and west Their flawless style and figures to see, As they glide along in the deep blue sea. High on the board, with confidence and poise They dive as we watch without any noise. Excellent dives they really are keen, Lucky we are that they’re Kennedy’s team. —KAI FRIIS, 12D TRACK The Kennedy Collegiate track team had a very successful year in 1953. They shared the Inter¬ mediate W.S.S.A. title with Walkerville but cap¬ tured the W.O.S.S.A. title alone. Several members of the team travelled to Lake Couchiching and rep¬ resented W.O.S.S.A. and helped bring the All-On¬ tario trophy back to W.O.S.S.A. district. During the summer several members of the team represented the school in the All-Canadian Junior meet at Win¬ nipeg and the Canadian Interprovincial Meet in Toronto. Special congratulations are extended to Coaches Green and Arnott for a successful season, to Mr. Gilbert for the help he gave, and to Bill Sawchuk for a fine managerial job. —GARY DOUGLAS CAMERA CLUB The members of the camera club may be few, compared to other clubs, but we still have a lot of fun. Our organization has something which most other clubs have not—a dark room. In it we can develop films, make prints, and enlarge prints. Our very capable instructor is Mr. Durrant, our president is Bob Waddell and our secretary- treasurer is Larry Bondy We meet once a month to discuss future plans and to learn something on photography. All in all, the camera club is a very successful activity of the school, and we have great plans for the near and farther away future. —KEN WILCOX CLUBS (Continued) BADMINTON Last year’s badminton club proved to be quite successful. In the new Windsor Novice Tourna¬ ment Irene Lyzen and Vera Lysey captured the trophy for the ladies’ doubles. The W.O.S.S.A. play¬ offs for Windsor and Riverside were held at Ken¬ nedy. Irene Lyzen and Dick Haines came up on top for the mixed doubles, Roman Maksimowich for the boys’ singles and Vera Lysey for the girls’ singles. The finals were played in London. In the open W.S.S.A. Tournament Dick Hames won the boys’ singles and combined with Roman Maksimo¬ wich for the boys’ doubles. This year again the club looks promising. Thanks are due to its coach, Mr. Ward. —VERA LYSEY MIXED GLEE CLUB The Mixed Glee Club of 1953-54 is in the middle of a successful year The group under the direction of Miss McNeill, sang “Little Brown Bird Singing” at both the Commencement Exercises and Christ¬ mas concert. The choir practised “Great Day” and “Little Brown Bird Singing” for the Festival in March. —DAVID WEARNE IS UPPER SCHOOL WORTH IT? Last spring a student asked me, ‘Was upper school worth it, or has it all passed without purpose and significance?” I thought that the grade 12, 13, and myself might find the answer here, to-night. If we compared our lives to an hourglass with each grain of sand representing the events, do you suppose that once each particle had fallen to the bottom, it would soon be buried by new experience, and lie forgotten? But an hourglass may be tipped allowing the sand to refresh mem¬ ory We can tip that glass now. But grade 13 comes as somewhat of a post-grad¬ uate year, with students returning for more special¬ ized work. The teachers deal with them as adults, yet are the guardians of this graduating year. To thank them is not enough. A new note develops in the self-reliance that is gained from doing things ‘on your own.’ As Mr. Deagle always said, No one can do the work for you.” The essence of the education is comparable to the Greek torch race of old. One man carried the fire for a specified distance, then handed it back to another. The torch had to keep burning, and going forward. We have run the marked out dis¬ tance; now other hands hold the flame, and the process will continue as long as Kennedy Collegiate stands as the good running ground. Last spring, I did not reply to the student’s question. Now I can. —VICKI BOROTA Page 46 THE KEN COLL, 19 5-4 COMPLIMENTS C)K KEN WILEY PHARMACY DISPENSING CHEMISTS 2300 Howard Ave. at Logan Phone CL 3-1112 JOHN WEBB LIMITED DIAMONDS - WATCHES - JEWELLERY IMPORTED ENGLISH SILVERWARE AND CHINA 552-556 OUELLETTE AVE.

Handsome Jack, with a fancy hair-do Who doesn ' t mind to be with Mary-Lou. Gordon and Shirley, the athletic stars, Followed by St. Louis Who, with girls won’t get very far? And, of course, there are many more Noted members of 9B. —RENATE LEHMAN 9C Our class, grade 9C, at the beginning of the year elected a President, Pat Wilkinson and a Vice President, Harold Mills. We have planned several class parties this year and have had one so far. Both the boys and girls in our class did well in basketball. The girls won eight of their ten games and won third place. Our boys worked up to the semi-finals but lost and took fourth place. Besides being active in sports our class has worked hard at selling magazines and basketball tickets. —PAT WILKINSON —HAROLD MILLS 9D Our class of 9-D is a funny one, So happy and so full of fun. We begin our classes on the dot of nine, All of us feeling mighty fine. We work together as if stuck by glue, Always doing what we should do. We go through the morning working hard, Everyone yearning to be out in the yard. Then comes the time for all to eat Everyone rushes upstairs for a seat. All too soon the noon passes by, And all of us to our room with a sigh. The teacher begins so we all sit still, To listen to lectures on Champlain and Hill. The afternoon goes on and on, And before you know it, it is gone. Then we all head on our own way, To go home and rest up for another day. —CAROL SUFFIELD 9F Our class fared well in the athletic division cop¬ ping championships in Interform Grade Nine, Track and Field, and Basketball. Besides these accomplishments by the boys, the girls captured Grade Nine Interform Volleyball. The Amateur Boys Basketball Team also gained a play-off berth, but at this date the result is indefinite. As for school sports we had representatives in Junior Boy’s Basketball, the Swimming Team, and Track and Field. —VIRGIL AND HORACE 9G Bob Price isn’t sure which edition of “As You Like It” has the correct punctuation and Miss Mc¬ Neill tries to persuade him. Lloyd Briese snickers at something amusing to him. Paul Darderian and Lewis Kryk are the outstanding artists in the class while Edmond Soulliere and Mike Ilarvan seem to enjoy themselves as long as somebody is on their trail. Shirley Warren studies ballet and performed at one of the assemblies. Our President is Brenda Beckett, our Vice-President is Eddie Mandzak and our Treasurer is Bette Ann Mossman. —BRENDA BECKETT 9H Our president is Ronald Parent, vice president Lee Danies, Secretary Carol Squire and Treasurer Ray Barry. Our forum representative is Carol Squire. Wc have had parties at the homes of Nancy Smith and Dolores Ellwood. We have good sportsmen and women and our basketball teams registered high on the list of winners. We had representatives on the school basketball and swim¬ ming teams in the persons of Dolores Ellwood, Carol Squire and Myletta Szerchud. Our home room teacher is Mrs. Hagarty. —NORMA THOMPSON —CAROL SQUIRE IOC (2) Here’s to the class of IOC (2) With something old and also new. Lois and Barbara with a fight start the day, Lilly Ilnicki is always away. They say Jean Chadwick is Tccumseh’s answer to Joni James, But Keith Cheshire still hasn’t found any flame, Gail Wilkee and Angela Trudell are still on the beam, Donna Merredith and Marg Beall have a heart throb it seems. There’s Betty Jean Hemerle the chocolate bar kid, Stan Potomski’s still bragging about the last home¬ work he did, Jackie and Harley still meet in the hall, There’s June Bradt, she’s so quiet and all, Wait! Did we miss anyone, well let’s hope not For this is where we have to stop. —DONNA COLEMAN CLASS OF 12D With goblins, pumpkins and the howling of ghosts we spent a wonderful evening at Dolores Chap¬ man’s cottage on Hallowe’en. Dolores is our Social Convener. Next we went to the Palace Recreation for a bowling party. After proving that we weren’t skil¬ ful we crowded into Jo-Anne Forster’s house, where (he evening was enjoyed by all because of the fun and the appetizing refreshments.
