FEWSMITH DEDICATION We, the Class of January, 1947, dedicate our DIS- TAFF to one who was a great help and a wonderful friend during the years we have spent here. Elizabeth A. F ewsmith was not only a teacher, but an adviser and a source of inspiration. She radiated to us, through her personality, the ideals and ambitions we now must strive to attain. May we, in some small measure, show our sincere admiration and genuine esteem by this, our dedication. Gateway to The Heavens Kensington symbolizes to most of us a safe port and a happy haven. It is here that we have been in- structed, cared for, and made ready to meet the hard- ships and obstacles that will face us in the future. We students resemble the stars in the heavens. During the term, as during the day, we worked and studied our lessons, striving to achieve the goals set before us, and when we received our report cards, we exposed ourselves shining brilliantly, as stars do at night, so that others might see our accomplishments. Always there to guide us was the brightest star of alleKen- sington. Like the sun during the day, and the moon at night, she was present at all times to see that we not only received an education, but also enough entertain- ment and social activities to give us relaxation from our studies. Now that we are leaving her, each one of us will have to be her own guiding star. It is up to us to remember her excellent teachings and always follow the right paths in life, so that we may some day give off light as bright as hers to guide others in the same manner. R. S. J. B. MRS. MARIE K. LONGSHORE Principal No star is ever last we once luwc seen We always may be what we might have been. Adelaide Proctor. The star each one of you has been looking for may be different from any other. It may just be another name for your ambition or your goal. Some of you have had to work harder than others to reach your particular goal. Some of you have not as yet achieved it. And still others may realize that your Choice was not wise and vyill have to seek elsewhere before you are definitely settled. None of this should be too disturb- ing to you, for you still have time to think things through toward a more successful future. You have heard numerous times that life is largely what you make it. It is true that none of you can completely direct her life, but real planning, really serious thought will help you to become what you might have been. mew MRS. MARY JANE F. GATES Class Sponsor TO THE CLASS OF JANUARY, 1947: The theme you have Chosen for your record book is one that has been a favorite of poets in all times. From the won- ders of the heavens poets have taken hope and inspiration. Let your minds and imaginations also be stimulated. In the new world which you will have a part in making, you will need greater hope and Vision than any group before you. Do not be content with too little. Envision the best and work toward making your dream real. Remember the thought that Browning has repeated in so many of his poems that the fault is not in failing but in never having tried. ywzaaz: Our Guiding Stars Principal, Mrs. Marie K.

President DIcAR CLASSMATES: Many of us look to the stars as our guiding light, but all of us have looked to Kensington and know that she will always live up to the high standard that she has set. Sharing all our moments of happiness and sorrow, she has been with us from the very hrst t0 the last day. Here we are Seniors, ready to graduate, ready to take our places in the world; but like many of the girls before us, we long to come back and start again as timid, frightened sophomores. we will never forget the fun of HBow Day, HClass Day, and HStunt Day, for such things as these made Kensing- ton seem to us a place of enjoyment. We've made many friends, most of whom we will see only occasionally, but still these friendships will remain with us always as 21 memorable part of our school life. And now, as we near the end of the trail and each of us goes her separate way, may I wish you all success and good fortune in anything that you under- take. FLORENCE CAREY A. A. President 15 GRACE DAVIS Class President DEAR CLASSMATES: It halsntt been very long ago that we began our high school training as bewildered sophomores, and now, before we have had barely time to think about it, we are another senior class ready to leave Kensington. High SChOOl hasn't been such a hardship, and we really have had little struggle adjusting ourselves to it. After graduation, what then! A few are waiting for the completion of high school so they can go on to schools of higher learning. The majority will proba- bly start out to make their own living in some way. We must remember, how- ever, that education just doesnYt Stop after commencement; it continues in whatever we dO. V376 have learned to love Kensington, and we will make an earnest effort to honor her name whichever way we turn. As we depart, let us go torth to persevere in our endeavors, in spite of all the Obstacles, to work hard in the held we have Chosen, to Serve others unself- ishly. XVc all hope for success for each and every one. DOLORES APPEL Vice-President LOUISE RIMAN Sec'y-Treas. 16 W L CLASS OF JANUARY 113 . B ,ro W MN GLORIA H. ABRAMSON J 104 W. Diamond Street uGlor . . .

Since February we've teen sophomores in Kensington High School, antl it's really wonderful. The girls and faculty are so friendly We really feel at home. On our first day, Dolores Allen, the S. A. President, introduced us to our new principal, Mrs. Longshore; the S. A. sponsor, Miss TWiKltlcll; aml our guardians for the hrst term, the Big Sisters. With the help of our Big Sisters, we explored every nook and cranny tso we thoughtl in the school, only to Find at a later date there were a few purposely overlooked. Fortu- nately, we weren't rostered for those until we became more accustomed to the layout of the school. a Last month the traditional Sophomore Reception was given by the Big Sisters. We were entertained with a varied programwra skit, some piano selections, singing, etc. Yesterday the Ken Players, our own starlets, presented a mystery drama entitled HNine Girls.H The climax of the evening was a poor frightened mouse who made one dash across the stage. In spite of this, the play was a rip-roaring success. In a few weeks the Sophomore Dance will he held. AL last we'll meet, those much-talked-about handsome C0 fellows from Northeast, our brother school. Now that the term is ending, we can honestly say Hit wasn't so bad after all. Au Revoir, Veenee and Marcia November, 1044 l lELLO STA RLEE: The first term being over, we now feel an established part of the school. Kensington is mighty proud of herself these days. Our Spanish Pan-Alneri- can League was awarded the emblem of Inter-American unity and good will for special effort and excellence in developing an original art portfolio. if we keep this up, K. H. S. will soon be one of the more famous schools. Everyones practicing party manners because Kensington will soon be e valuated by teachers and principals from other schools. She just has 10 come out on top! We're all agog with excitemmt now. The Dial is conducting a Pin-up Girl Contest to determine Miss K. H. S. The prettiest girl was selected from cach Class for the finals. Our own Jayne Sweeney was chosen as Queen. of the Sophomores. Naturally, a senior became Queen of the School, so let us not discuss the matter further. Bye for now, Veenee and Marcia STARLEE: April, 1945 It doesn't seem possible a junior already! We're Big Sisters now and feel so grown-up and protective toward our little sisterSethe new sophs. They ask the silliest questions about the sim- plest things. Its hard to believe we once were like them. Wonder of wonders! Another member of the male species, Mr. Street, has entered our portals as a member of the faculty in the Commercial Depart- ment. To raise funds for improved assembly programs, Tagsr Day was intro- duced, the first one consisting of a short drama entitled HInside Information. Since this was such a great success, plans are being made for future per- formances. As of this semester, the Dial will be composed of six-page issues. Of course this will mean an increase in price, but the enlarged Dial will merit it. Not only is the Dial being enlarged, but it will also boast of a cartoon which will be featured in all coming issues. Summer vacation is slowly but surely drawing near, so 'til the fall, welll say, ' Be seeing you, Veenee and Marcia December, 1945 STARLEE DEAR: Those who loafed in the summer sun are now busy bees in the winter. Many of us were chosen at the beginning of the new term to serve in the positions of lunchroom monitors and bank tellers. It's wonderful to be lunchroom monitors. We're excused at the ringing of the first bell from the class previous to our lunch period. This enables us to reach the cafeteria before the crowd. Now we don't have to waste the most popular period in awaiting our turn in a mile-long line at the food counter, only to hnd crumbs as the last remaining remnants of what was food. The Junior Town Meeting of the Air was held in our; Auditorium lasi week. Surprisingly, the girls didnt go overboard for the masculine speakers. From all outward appearances, it looks as if Kensington has been quite suc- cessful in making ladies out of her young daughters. Next month the first peace-time commencement will be held in K. H. S. It will be quite an event. In a very short while, two-thirds of our secondary education will be completed. It seems only yesterday we entered as trembling, bewildered sophomores. Be seeing you, Veenee and Marcia May, 1946 STARLEE DEAR: At last we're seniors! But the joy of being such is blighted by the death of one of our best-loved teachers, Miss Fewsmith, following several weeks 36 of illness. The Senior Prom, which she was looking forward to attending, was greatly saddened by her absence. To those who knew and loved her, Miss Fewsmithls memory will linger and remain forever dear. In honor of this wonderful person, Kensington is setting up a fund which will be known as the Fewsmith Memorial Fund. It will more than likely be a dedication to a memory which will inspire all those whom she taught. Heavenly days! The rule of having no home work over the week-end has actually become a school rule. Now Well have more leisure moments in which to gaze at the moon with our favorite beau, study the stars with same, etc. Believe it or not, K. H. S. hnally won the 950 Club's Blue Ribbon Award. l'iitteen girls attended a luncheon at VVPEN at which time the award was presented to our Alma Mater. Occasions such as these really help to place a school on the map. Before long Kensington will be as well known as any other school you can name. Instead of the annual Ken Kapers, there will be a picnic, which will have a large attendance. The outing will include a scavenger hunt and a treasure hunt. Hmm, sounds like fun! The summer months are advancing, and we are all looking forward to days of swimming, baking in the sun, hiking, other sports, and working tfor the more industrious lassesl. So until the fall, we will say Adieu, Veenee and Marcia c433 Nil? x H dED-nahn December, 1946 DEAR STARLEE: At long last we're graduating seniors. Naturally, our course of study is much more difficult than ever before, but the teachers are extremely help- ful. I wonder if they could be bored with gazing upon our faces and wish to see the endwof us. Oh, no, that thought is utterly impossible. In October, the majority of the senior class visited the Nationys Capital, Washington, D. C., for the class trip. Our guides there Were so friendly. Most of us would have liked to have remained for the week-end but it was not permissible. Those who were unable to take the Washington trip toured Phillyls many historical spots of which it is so justly proud. Imagine, Kensington boasts of another member of the masculine sex in the Commercial Department. Mr. Kafm hails from a boys' school and just loves his work among the weaker sex. Within the next month, the final star will have been reached. We're leaving now and feel a little afraid; but this natural emotion that comes when you reach the bend in the road is lessened by the feeling of confidence which comes through the preparation which Kensington has given us.

D. A. 44 THE STORY OF A STARRY NIGHT PROM COM M ITTEE 45 LAUGHING group 01 seniors boarded the 8:35 A. M. train bound for Wash- ington, D. C, on Friday, October 11, 1946. iVith everyone present, we settled down to pass the time singing and eating box lunches. Time passed swiftly, and upon arrival at Union Station, we were escorted to sight-seeing husses. The guides showed us the interesting highlights in Washington, Arlington, and Mount Vernon. Our first stop was the Capitol, where guides showed us the various rooms used by the President and the two Houses of Congress. The biggest thrill came when we turned our eyes upward and saw the interior of the dome in the Capitol which is decorated with paintings by Brumidi. The next stop was the Congressional Library where we saw the original Declaration of Independence zmd the original Constitution. The impressive figure of Lincoln and the. Lincoln Memorial held many girls spellbound. A visit to the Pan-American building acquainted us with many tropical plants and trees. The change of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was something which will never be forgotten. Our last Visit was to Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington. The garden to the rear of the mansion was quite impressive with its b laul'iful flowers and box hedges. George XNashington's deathbed :md tomb where he and his wife are in- terred were memorable sights. After dinner in a restaurant, a tired but happy throng;r of girls climbed aboard the six o'clock train to Philadelphia. 4 0 i at Birthplace of the Stars air at N OCTOBER 11, 1946, at 9:05 A. M. Miss Twaddell and a group of seniors started out eagerly for the city trip. A bus was chartered to provide for the transportatidn 0f the group to the historical places of Philadelphia. The first stop was the Colonial homes of Washingtonis day. We next visited Betsy Ross' house which holds many historical papers and documents. These old papers played a great part in the making of our nation. In the kitchen many copper pots and pans hung over the old fireplace. From the Betsy Ross house we went to Christ Church, where we saw the grave of Benjamin Franklin. One of the other places that we visited was the Gloria Dei Church, which is a Latin term meaning HGlory to God. This was the first Swedish church in America. In Carpenters Hall we saw the old Colonial clothes and documents of the first settlers. Last but not least we saw Independence Hall and the original seats of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The girls were. dismissed at 12 :30 P. M. After the trip a part of the group went to Kelly's for dinner and the others returned home. Thus, a trip which in contemplation was dull. terminated in an eventful and never-to- be-forgotten day in the lives of the seniors of January, 1947. AVA DELIZZA. HIGH WORLD EVENTS HEN we were just beginning our life at Kensington in January, l944, the war was well on the way to Victory. American bombers were pounding Germany, and japan was feeling the force of our armies. Historic D-Day came during this first term when Allied troops landed in France. Our list of re-captured Jap-held islands increased greatly. In our junior year, 1945, our great president, Franklin D. Roosevelt, died, leaving the gap which Vice-President Truman filled. Then came joyous V-E Day when Germany sur- rendered to the Allied powers. The Philippines were freed. During that summer there were two great developments: the dropping 0f the Atomic bomb and the surrender of Japan, which brought to a close the greatest war in history, World War II. American troops waded ashore unhindered to occupy Japan. Rationing was done away with shortly after. Service flags disappeared from the windows as servicemen came home. Then came the long hard road to peace. The Paris Peace Conference, begun in our senior year, will prove, we hope, an important factor in attainingr peace. Some of the notable hgures at this meeting are James F. Byrnes, our Secretary of State, Ernest Bevin, of England, and Russia's Foreign Minister, Molotov. The city of Trieste, in Yugoslavia, is quite an issue at the Peace Conference. There is still some unrest in Greece, Italy, Yugoslavia, and China. The greatest war crimes trial in history came to its dramatic end early in October when twenty-two former Nazi leaders heard the sentences that completely ended their notorious careers. Eleven of them paid the supreme penalty. Food in great quantities is still going overseas to the starving people of Europe and Asia. Vi e find articles like lard, soap, sugar, meat, and canned fruit missing from the store shelves. The O. P. A. has been done away with, and prices are going up every day. Butter is $1.03 a pound, eggs are seventyetwo cents a dozen, milk has risen to twenty-two cents a quart and bread to sixteen cents. Strikes are still a common thing, and the housing: problem does not seem to have eased up at all over previous months. Many returned veterans and their families are living right on the campus where they are attending college under the G. I. Bill of Rights. The Truculent Turtle, a Navy bomber, completed a recordebreaking non-stop flight from Australia to Columbus, Ohio, in hfty-hve hours and eighteen minutes. Another record was made by the HDreamboat when it carried the heaviest 10ml ever lifted by :1 plane. It also croxsetl the Atlantic in twelve hours. These were the important events, recortletl in history, that marked our three years at Kensington. BOOKS Kensington girls in l946 show a tleFmite preference for historical novels with such books as HGreen Do phin Street by Elizabeth Goudge, UThe King's General by Daphne Du Maurier, HDragonwycli'' by Anya Seyton, HBlack Rosel' by T. B. Costain, HCentennial Summer, a story of a Philadelphia family who livetl 0n Richmond Street, by A. l3. ltlell, and UCaptain from Castile by Shellabarge, head the literary hit parade. However, such books as HLaura, HTomorrow ls Forever, HA Lion is in the StreelS,' ULeave Her to Heaven, and HThe Gauntlet have also proved very popular. HThe Egg antl I by Betty MacDonald and HThe Snake Pit, :1 startling book concern- intr the bzul conditions of insane usylums, by Mary Jane Wade take nml-Flctiun lmnore. y FASH IONS Girls. are more clothes-conscious this past year than ever before. inth the new year coming in, there will be many Changes. 48 LIGHTS Bright-colored plaids and solid-colored skirts are still very popular with the teen-agers. Sweaters worn inside the skirt, with wide belts, are tops on each school girl's list. The newest in cuffs and sleeves are the balloon, wide cufTs on blouses, and the kimona sleeve. m, Dresses with bustles in the back look very smart for that special date. The lengths of dresses and skirts are increasing. Little slits at the side of straight skirts are favored by many. Suits with matching vests are very new and chic. MOVIES For fun and recreation, a few hours spent in a movie is just the thing. Current films which may now be seen here are HTwo Years Before the Mast starring Alan Ladd, HDe- ception with Bette Davis, HNotorious which stars Ingrid Bergman and Cary Grant, and HHoliday in Mexico with Ilona Massey and Walter Pidgeon heading a large cast of screen favorites. At our theatres, deep in the heart of the city, are the very popular productions of HBlossom Time, HDear Ruth, and HSong of Norway. For future entertainment in our center-city movies, weill be seeing HThe Homestretch starring Cornel inlde and Maureen O'Hara, petite, cute Jeanne Crain in tiMargie, and the dynamic talents of Joan Crawford and John Garfield combined in the new sensational love story entitled HHumoresque. To go along with this grand list of lively entertainment, we are privileged to have Frankie tThe VoiceT Sinatra visit Convention Hall to extend a helping hand for a needy cause. MUSIC On the minds and lips of all of us is music in some form. In our senior year a few of the tunes we hear and sing often are uTo Each His Own, HRumors Are Flying, Pretending, uFive Minutes More, South America, Take It Away, HBlue Skies, The Whole World Is Singing My Song,-' uOle Buttermilk Sky, uPut That Kiss Back Where You Found It, and Who Do You Love, I Hope? On the list of popular singers are Frank Sinatra, Perry Como, Andy Russell, Johnny Mercer, Bing Crosby, Dinah Shore, Ginny Simms, Margaret Whiting, and Joan Edwards. Some of the notable singing groups are the Mills Brothers, the Andrews Sisters, the Ink Spots, the Pied Pipers, the Dinning Sisters, the King Cole Trio, and the Charioteers. When it comes to bands, Vaughn Monroe is just about tops. Others are Harry James, Eddy Howard, Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Freddie Slack, Woody Herman, Sammy Kaye, and of course, Spike Jones, who always 05ers novelty. Many old songs have been revived and are enjoying popularity all over again. Among them are 'iMissouri Waltz, HMy Blue Heaven, HI'm in the Mood for Love, and HKeep on the Sunny Side of the Street. This is the music we so greatly enjoyed in 1946. RADIO Radio plays an active part in our daily life because it provides untold enjoyment and entertainment for many people. It is through the radio that our own Kensington won recognition and was awarded by the 950 Club that coveted HBlue Ribbon Award. The Quiz Programs are still enjoyed by many people. And one of the best known is HTake It or Leave It, with that $64 question man, Phil Baker. Of course, radio would not be complete if it did not have comedians. Some of the out- standing ones of today are Fibber Magee and Mollie, Red Skelton, Abbott and Costello, Joan Davis, Fred Allen, and Jack Benny. Yes, Bob Hope and Pepsodent are still going strong. Mystery thrillers still have a host of followers. Inner Sanctum, Suspense, and Mystery Theater are the outstanding programs which bring thrills and chills t0 the listening audience. Many people enjoy the well-known singers' programs. Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Vaughn Monroe, and Perry Como are a few of the better known crooners. Last but not least are the transcribed singing commercials enjoyed so much by every. one? A few of the widely used ones are All Purpose Rit, Rinso White. Halo Shampoo, Pepsis Cola, and Super Suds. Radio may still be improved a great deal. There is much talk of transcribing every program. This will mean that the record may be made at the leisure of the entertainer and replayed at the appointed time. In future years this probably will be the current thing, but thus far it has only been used by Bing Crosby and the short mystery programs. SPORTS This year, 1946, gave us new thrills in the line of sports. Baseball: Philadelphians this past summer season went all out for baseball, topping all previous attendance records for the city. Our Fighting Phillies, as they are called, ended the season in fifth place for the hrst time since 1932. Del Ennis, sensational rookie outfielder and a graduate of Olney High, and Emil Verban, the magniflcent second baseman, gave the Phillies great support. The National League pennant race ended in a tie, with the St. Louis Cardinals finally beating the Brooklyn Dodgers in a three game play-olT. The Cardinals also defeated the Boston Red Sox in the World Series. Incidentally, this is the first time the Red Sox have lost a World Series. Fighting: In the fight between Joe Louis and Billy Conn for the heavyweight title, Joe kept his crown by knocking out Billy in the eighth round. Football: Although at this writing the football season has just begun, it promises to he an exciting season with many players returning from the service. The Army and Navy Game will again be played in Philadelphia. Doc Blanchard and Glenn Davis are already making the headlines for Army. The University of Pennsylvania is off to a good start by winning their first three games of the season. Our Philadelphia Eagles have yet to beat those Chicago Bears. THEATRE Newcomers makingr good for the first time and familiar personalities turning in unfail- ingly good performances are making 1946 a memorable year of outstanding hits on the legitimate stage. The musical Annie Get Your Gun combines the talents of two old stand-bys, Irving Berlin and Ethel Merman. It is the story of Annie Oakley, who according to the play wanted a man as well as a gun. Creating just as much a sensation, only in a different way, is Eugene O'Neill's latest effort, HThe Ice Man Cometh, which runs for four and one-half hours. Not quite so long, HCall Me Mister is a musical comedy concerning the postwar life of ii orld War II veterans. On the serious side, two plays, The Voice of the Turtle and HDeep Are the Roots, are both outstanding. Although their first-night performances date back before 1946, they are still running. HDeep Are the Roots is designed primarily to make the public realize the unhappy position of the Negro in the South; while the HVoiceof the Turtle concerns itself with the search for happiness of a young man and woman who have become rather embittered because of unhappy love affairs. The success of this play is particularly note- worthy because of the difficulty in sustaining action in a play with a cast of only three people. Now that the war is over, the theater is becoming more and more internationalized than ever before. uThe Old Vic Company from England, with Laurence Olivier at its head, is perhaps the best among the contributions of over the ocean countries. The American counterpart of the HOld Vic Players is uThe American Repertoire Theatre, which boasts in its rank such players as Walter Hampden, Eva LeGalliene, Victor Jory, and June Duprez. Among their best productions of '46 are itHenry VIII and What Every Woman Knows. Among the other hits are Oklahoma, Carousel, and HPark Avenue. 50 i i The Stars Look Down it Yet shall thy name conspicuous and sublime Stand in the spacious firmament of time H Fixed as a slur . eWordsworth. S I gaze into the firmament through my telescope, the stars and planets are A swirling, twirling, forming a mist, and gradually settling into discernible figures. Peering more closely into the vast heavens, I note with much interest and de- light many familiar faces of my former classmates from Kensington High School, class of January, '47. Entering Philly's famous Academy of Music are Florence Pavlak, Helen Dunz- weiler, Margaret Dunzweiler, Dolores Austin, Jean Clemmer, Doris Conrad, and Marjorie Brooks who are engaged by the Philadelphia La Scala Opera as singing stars in its forthcoming production. Mabel Fitchett and Nancy Campbell, concert pianists in the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra, are joined by Josephine Seidel who saws away on that enormous bass hddle. I see, not far from the opera house, a modest one-story brick structure, an art studio, which houses such personalities as Elynor Taggart, Gloria Bailey, Louise Riman, Theresa Donahue, and Evelyn Passini. Climbing the Milky-Way, the stepping-stone t0 the success of their modelling careers, are Evelyn Blash, Gloria Fries, Doris Furman, Frances Tumasz, Doris Bosse, and F rances Krzystoska who will shortly become I he Models of the Nation. As I swing the telescope to the North, my vision is obscured by a great obstacle, actually the structure of one of Philly's leading department stores. In the role of man- ager is Helen Samiec and the chief dress designer is Bette Rabbitt. Behind the counters, performing their duties as competent salesgirls, are Jeannette Young, Cornelia Proctor, Hazel Needhammer, Hazel Walsh, Joan Masterson, Helen Fischer, Dorothy Birney, Lois Morris, Barbara Treml, Mary Hoggan, Dorothy Myers, Nellie Gill, and Freda Osattin. Also here, I find Nancy Galatola, Eva Katz, Barbara Everitt, and Esther Kolb who entered into the business world as salesgirls and who, through persistent effort, have attained the ultimateeebuyers for their place of employment. Just across the street is an immense building which houses brokerage and law offices in which Margaret Hurley, Edna Dietz, Gloria Greene, Doris Zeuner, Mary Woehr, and Edith Rodgers fill positions as general clerical workers. Joann Benigno is the Certified Public Accountant used by all employers in this building. Sharing the office with her is Nancy Kzthmar, Head Receptionist, who has under her many former classmates, such as Grace Davis, Annamarie Bruhn, Elizabeth Bowman, Maralyn Shalo, and Ruth Herold. Of course, each office boasts of a secretary; and in several Offices in this structure we find Rosemarie Spina, Claire Anderson, Lydia Bender, Jayne Sweeney, Lillian Drybala, Florence Smith, Alice Bennett, Edna Schneider, Dolores McIntyre, Dolores Henry, Margaret Lefferts, Barbara Klosky, Frances Komar, Marie Gorczynska, Mary Hickman, Lorraine Chambers, Eleanor Kij, Adeline Boruch, Lois Coates, 21nd Dorsey Nugent taking dictation from their attorney and financier em- ployers. Now what is ahead of me? Everything seems so clean, and silence pervades. Oh, it's the interior of the City Hospital and there's Dr. Phenoris Vaughan preparing her- self for the Operating Room where she will perform her tenth operation. Nurse Dorothy Stickel is assisting the doctor in her pre-operating ablutions; Laboratory Technician Gloria Abramson is analyzing a section of deflated tissue, and Hospital Receptionist, Doris Spaeth, is standing by with all important data concerning the patient. In a nearby school, Rita Spector is teaching mathematics to her seventh-grade class while Bernice McMichael prepares the following day's activities for her fifth-grade class. Down the corridor, in another classroom, Dorothy Glick is instructing her third- grade students in the fundamentals of English. As chief librarian in the school's library is Margaret Barbakos who, of course, is so engrossed in the latest best-seller she doesn't see the line of stu lents in want of books. A little further west, in the YWCAls gym, a volleyball floats through the air and just about grazes Selma Litvinls nose before gravity pulls it groundward. Along,r with her are several others, former volleyball champs, who have crashed the Olympic's be- cause of their stupendous capabilities and teamwork and are practicing for the Hgreat day, lwhich is not far off. Florence Carey, Dolores Appel, Florence Borner, Caroline Zarkowski, Ann Patrick, and Alma Bacher are also familiar personalities. y Continuing their work in the journalism Field are Patricia Lynn and Selma Alper, who are working together as critics for the City Newspaper. They have also compiled 21 book which has been edited and will soon become 21 best-seller. Yonder 0n the horizon, coming out of the fog, is a ship bound for the Riviera. As the fog lifts entirely, the faces of those leaning on the rail become more and more per- ceptible and can now be distinctly seen. Former Kensingtonians can be identified not only by their faces but also by their heated discussion of their Alma Mater begun by Rose Lampert, the charming connoisseur on world-wide travel. Fannie Cohen, Doris Besselink, Lorraine Kucowski, Betty Eble, Eleanor Stopka, Mary Seibert, Peggy Hartz, Eleanor Schetterlein, Frances Smoluk, Alma Wilson, June Tomlinson, Sylvia Ir7rzmkelY Catherine LaBarth, Jane Kolos, Dorothy Martin, and Minerva Gusst add their opinions at convenient times to help make the voyage more interesting and enjoyable. Clouds and clouds of billowing tresses are found in Ava DeLizzu's hairdressing es- tablishment. Carol Harris is her special assistant while Anne Garcia, Valeria Bogdan, Betty Dickerson, and Theresa DeMeo very competently affix lovely coiffures on many charming feminine heads. Hm, what is this I see? Why, it's row houses sheltering the remaining maidens loops, matrons nowl of the class of yesteryear who are now happily drowned in wedded bliss. This group consists of Estelle 'Schultz, Ruth VVeckesser, Rosalyn Katz, Nancy Cornfield, Doris Lebcr, Eleanor Daulerio, Doris Hahn, Elsie Whitehead, Alma Dooley, Shirley Shaffer, Louise Milke, Rosemary Needles, Doris Warner, Shirley Hanlon, Marie Vzlrley, Doris Brcucr. and Dolores Zimmerman. Some are already proud Mamas, 30 of course, on behalf of the entire graduating class, I take this opportunity to wish all of you many, many years of a happy, contented, and peaceful marriage. My meanderings have. come to a halt because the heavens have again formed into 21 mist, much heavier than previously. But, through me, you have been able to see those of whom you may have lost track, but whose memories will forever linger in your minds and hearts. 50. I shall consider my assignment concluded. And, as a suitable Climax, I will say-The best of luck to all of you in all your undertakings, whatever they may be. S. A., G.
