The Ken Kun sack Kensington's service men no longer lacked news about school activities and personalities, when, in January, the Ken Knapsack was started. No permanent staff was selected, but most of the report- ing was done by members of Miss Belden's English class with Mrs. Stewart and Miss Kammerer as advisors. The mimeographing was done by Mr. Sinitlfs Office Practice classes and many were the volunteers eager to help with the folding. addressing, and stamping of the envelopes. The ofiice looked like an assembly line before each issue went into the mails! Copies were sent out in January, March. April. and June full of news about athletics. assemblies, class elections. honors won by the school and its students. and war activities. Popular with the readers were the columns devoted to news of the service men themselves. Each Knapsack contained news of promotions, excerpts from letters. recent visitors home on leave and interesting highlights in the life of the boys in camps. on foreign duty, and at sea . . . all written with eye carefully on the cen- sor's reaction! Before June the mailing list had jumped from l85 to 450 with each day bringing more names of former students now in the Armed Forces. Enthusiastic letters expressing appreciation and interest came from boys in camps all over the United States, from Africa. England. Alaska. and Hawaii. '6Keep it coming! said the men in uniform. Their letters. read at a staff meeting in May. were ample reward for the boys and girls who had worked to make the paper a success. Hktttuktttti'
