We are proud to dedicate the i956 Compass to this man, who is our principal, Garnett F. Roberts. Mr. Roberts, who was born on November l9, l886, in Alden, New York, was well acquainted with teacher-student relationships when he came to Kensington. He acquired this experience while teaching at Watkins Glen and Saratoga Springs, where he also coached football. Later he taught and was then appointed principal at Masten Park High School. Using his knowledge and warm gentleness, he has promoted our school activities with sincere in- terest, While he is striving to further our education and studies, he can always be seen at the football and basketball games, cheering our teams to vic- Mr. Garnett F. Roberts tory. Through his tireless efforts there have been marked physical improvements in Kensingtorfs makeup. How much brighter the school is with the public address system and the new coat of paint which were added this yearl Finding a few spare minutes from his busy schedule, Mr. Roberts is apt to use them for his hobby, by which he is classified as an amateur painter. Until recently he found enjoyment play- ing golf, and is still an enthusiastic fan. Although we show him how we feel by the wav we love and respect him, there is no better way to say this - in appreciation to a wonderful man - Thanks, Mr. Roberts. . . . Speak gently, let no harsh word mar the good we may do here - David Bates P E s R x V i I 1 X , Q 1 5 'IM .9ntl'0Jll,Ce Our gkefne . . . THAT INTANGIBLE SUBSTANCE, GASES SO VITAL TO LIFE ON EARTH, THE AIR AROUND US, IS OUR THEME FOR THIS YEAR. AIR AFFECTS OUR EVERY MOVEMENT, FOR WITHOUT IT THERE WOULD BE DEVASTATION AND UTTER NOTHINGNESS. AN EMPTY EARTH VOID OF LIFE WOULD EXIST. THE BEAUTY OF THE SKIES WOULD BE LOST TO THE FLEETING IMAGINATION OF OUR CREATOR, AND THE REALITY OF CIVILIZATION MIGHT STILL BE A DREAM. JOHN RUSKIN SAID OF THE SKY, THAT IT IS: ALMOST HUMAN IN ITS PASSIONS, ALMOST SPIRITUAL IN ITS TENDERNESS, ALMOST DIVINE IN ITS INFINITY. AIR STORMS, BLOWS, DRIFTS, WHIRLS AND ROARS IN EMPHASIS OF ITS HUMAN CHARACTERISTICS. IT HAS WIND, RAIN, CLOUDS, THUNDER, LIGHTNING, FOG AND HAIL TO EXPRESS ITS MOODS. COMMUNICATION BETWEEN MEN WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE WITH- OUT AIR, FOR THE TELEGRAPH, TELEPHONE, RADIO, TELEVISION AND RADAR ALL DEPEND UPON AIR FOR TRANSMISSION. ALL SPEECH, SOUND AND MUSIC ARE DEPENDENT ON THIS SAME STUFF OF LIFE. MAN IS ETERNALLY REACHING UPWARD TOWARD THE HEAVENS FOR THE CULMINATION OF HIS ACHIEVEMENTS. HIS UTOPIA IS THE GREAT BEYOND. THUS FAR, HE HAS ONLY TOUCHED UPON THIS ZENITH THROUGH AIR TRAVEL AND AUTOMATICALLY CONTROLLED MISSILES, THUS, IN SUMMARY, IT MAY BE SAID THAT AIR IS LIFE, FOR EVERYTHING ANIMATE AND HERBACEOUS RESULTS FROM THE EXIST- ENCE OF AIR. 6 1 5 I 7 MR JOHN NICHOLAS CHASSIN 8 . L w ' Jin A note of sadness entered Kensington this year, because one of our dear- est friends and staunchest supporters is no longer with us, a man who loved wisdom and lived according to its dictates, a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity and trust, John Nicholas Chassin. He devoted his entire life to the cause of proper education. He was a champion ofthe Arts and Sciences and believed that all well educated people should be grounded in these and in well-defined moral principles. As a teacher and administrator he stressed the importance of mental discipline and high ethical standards. He has influenced the lives of thousands on their journey from boys and girls to men and women, and all look back in grateful appreciation for the high principles which he helped develop in their characters. On his passing, people in all walks of life bowed their heads in prayer and with saddened hearts realized they had lost a true friend, a friend who had enriched their lives far beyond their ability to measure, who through his in- spired direction gave them an appreciation of values which have resulted in well-ordered, happy lives. Galsworthy said, By the friends they cultivated, the books they read, the music they enjoy and the impression they leave on the lives of others, you shall know the texture of men's souls. Using this as a norm, we can be assured of the high position John Nicholas Chassin shall hold in the memory of all who knew him. 9 Wemoriam: Jalan nckofaal Clzafmin .xdclminiafrafion BLANKET OF THE EARTH, FOOD FOR ANIMATE EXISTENCE, INSTRU- MENT OF ALL SOUND, SUNLIGHT AND SHADOW, AIR IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE. ALL ANIMAL AND PLANT FORMS SHARE AND LIVE BY THIS SUBSTANCE TO FORM A VAST INCORPORATED WHOLE, THE EARTH. IMAGINE EARTH WITHOUT AN ATMOSPHERE - BLEAK, BARREN AND DESOLATE, - A SILENT WORLD - FOR SOUND DEMANDS AIR IN WHICH TO TRAVEL, A BLACK WORLD - FOR SUNLIGHT AND COLOR ARE ONLY DIFFUSED BY THE ATMOSPHERE. AIR IS ESSENTIAL FOR EXISTENCE, EDUCATION IS THE BASIS FOR LIVING. AS HORACE MANN SAID, THE COMMON SCHOOL IS THE GREATEST DISCOVERY EVER MADE BY MAN. OTHER SOCIAL ORGANI- ZATIONS ARE CURATIVE AND REMEDIAL. THIS IS A PREVENTATIVE AND AN ANTIDOTE. TO KEEP PACE WITH THE DEVELOPMENTS IN THE AIR WORLD IS INDEED A CHALLENGE. BY THIS ENDEAVOR, WE STRIVE TO HELP OUR YOUNG PEOPLE TO A'I'I'AIN THE UNDERSTANDING NECESSARY FOR EFFECTIVE LIVING TODAY, TOMORROW AND IN THE FUTURE. I0 1 r u E 5 5 i II mr. lgogerla reefs flw Qfaduafed 0 1956 Mr. Garnett F. Roberts TO THE SENIORS OF l956: Perhaps a message to a graduating class of any year should contain the importance of fundamental truths, the appreciation of these great principles to present situations, and the hope that success will come to its members to the degree which they merit. The extent of your learning and scholarship will govern the depth of your thinking and the judg- ments af which you are capable. Your personality and character have already been formed in a great measure by the value which you put upon integrity of word and action and to the tolerance you show toward the thoughts and habits of others about you. Strangely enough, most of these everyday habits of life will not greatly change in the coming years. Studies indicate that those who are now reserved and studious remain so, while the extroverts in school become the social and political leaders in their communities. Thus to know your own char- acteristics will help you adjust yourself to life sit- uations. The challenge to the class of i956 is as great as that of earlier classes. Our youth must be ever stronger to excel the scientific training of youth in captive countries. American diplomacy should strive to avert all-out war while it extends material aid to the underprivileged peoples who at present lack the stability to become self-governing. All our resources and statesmanship will be needed to help communities, states, and nations aligned with each other in good faith and mutual respect. The potential benefits of atomic energy for peaceful purposes are just becoming evident so that not only America but the whole world may be on the threshold of a Golden Age. May you each receive your just share of its full- ness. .jcnziingfon 'MA cameo Wit. Jeff? Mr. Frank J. Kelly This year, we at Kensington welcomed our new assistant principal, Mr. Frank J. Kelly. As a chemistry and English instructor at Seneca and Kensington, and as assistant principal at South Park and Lafayette, Mr. Kelly has gained invalu- able experience in supervising young people, which has made him a capable and understanding leader. His fairness and diplomacy reveal him to be a man of strong character. Kensington is not unfamiliar to the Kelly family. Mr. Kelly taught here for eight years, and Mrs. Kelly is a former Kensington librarian. Mr. Kelly has a wide range of interests, but aside from being a father to four children, Robert, Elaine, James and Jerry, and owning our home which is constantly in need of repair, he enjoys reading and watching sporting events. When asked what he thought of Kensington, Mr. Kelly replied that he thought it was the finest school in the city. He said, l believe that the out- standing characteristic of the school is the friend- liness of the students, among themselves, and with their teachers.

One of the key lettermen on our swimming team, Jack, the executive type, was an officer of his Junior Class last year. Nick. Lpngo, Boys' Marshal Nick Longo well deserves his high esteem here at Kensington, because gf his friendly, polite manner and his likable person- ality, O e of Ken's most dynamic athletes, Nick has been a membqfgf our baseball and basketball squads and scored more than his share of touchdowns as left halfback on our football team last year. 1 Marlene Kuske, Girls' Marshal Winning is routine for our Girls' Marshal. Not only has Mar- lene been a member of championship volleyball, basketball and bowling teams for four years, she is also President of her l-li-Y. She professes an interest in the business world. ' 22 Dick's quiet unassuming ways have brought him many lasting friends at Kensington. Besides being an honor student, Dick was an outstanding member of the Cross-Country Team and was invaluable to Ken as a pitcher on our baseball team. We all wish Dick the best of luck in his future endeavors as an engineer. Sally Heeb, Vice-President The qualities which make Sally a good cheerleader and officer of the Student Council also cause her to be liked by everyone. Assuming jobs of responsibility, she carries them out with sincerity and integrity. Next year she is planning to go to State Teachers College. Judy Albright, Secretary Our effervescent Secretary always has a cheery Hi for everyone. Her leadership and her excellent capabilities have been evident in her work on the Student Council and the Coun- cil on World Affairs. Besides having a part-time job, she is an honor roll student and a member of several athletic teams. Jczigkffi anJ :spanked Donald Wobig Marianna Giacalone . Robert Mclntosh Barbara Speidel James Nixon Mercita Binner As your classmates and friends, we, the graduating class of l956, dub you the Knights and Ladies of Kensington. Knowing each of you has been a profitable experience to us all. Through your attributes of faithfulness to classmates and teachers, your friendli- ness and good-natured attitude, and your participation in extra-curricular activities, each of you has inspired us and gained our admiration. We thank you for your commendable influence upon us and our Alma Mater and wish you success in your chosen careers. Very sincerely yours, The Class of 1956. 23 ,ljaLcbcfory Carol Boesl America today stands on the threshold of great- ness undreamed of a few short decades ago. The world has expanded its boundaries beyond the horizon, creating unlimited opportunity for us who are graduating here tonight. To help us prepare for this challenging future we have just completed four years of educational, spiri- tual and emotional growth under the wise and un- tiring supervision of many persons dedicated to our well-being. We wish to express to them our heart- felt appreciation. Mr. Roberts, our esteemed principal who brought to us at Kensington his rich background of experi- ence gleaned from many years of high school od- ministration - in two short years you have en- deared yourself to us all. We shall never forget your friendliness and wholehearted devotion to our welfare. Mr. Kelly, to you we extend our sincere thanks not only for your understanding of our many prob- lems, your ready advice and approachability, but also for keeping us in line as painlessly as possible whenever the need arose. To all our teachers whose inspiration, patience and encouragement we will long remember, we now express our gratitude. lt is you who perpetuate the spirit of Kensington, so dear to our hearts. We are indeed fortunate to have had so fine a faculty to steer our course and prepare us for our great od- venture into the unknown. ....., ..,, 4,,, -- To you, our devoted parents, we express our ap- preciation for your confidence in our ability, and we hope that our future achievements will reward you for the many sacrifices you made for us. Each of us will now commence his chosen career in life. Each will begin to steer a purposeful course that must be taken alone. Each will encounter problems that must be solved individually. What- ever difficulties may be ahead, whatever tasks may confront us, the knowledge and courage and skill which have become ours in the past four years will stand us in good stead. What names from among our ranks will enter history as explorers of the unknown horizons? Who of us will discover the new worlds that lie iust beyond our seeing eyes? Who will penetrate outer space with all its hidden mysteries? True, some of us will not soar to great and hallowed heights, some will not attain fame or even moderate recognition, but all of us can achieve that inner peace that comes with making the most of opportunity. In this new world without boundaries each of us does have a boundary of capability. lf we strive to reach it, if we do our best, if we give our all, then indeed we shall have succeeded. lf you can't be a highway then just be a trail, If you can't be the sun be a star, It isn't by size that you win or you fail- Be the best of whatever you are! -Carol Ann Boesl. . ,,.....,LL. . 4 , AGNES M.

IT IS ALSO DIFFICULT FOR US TO APPRECIATE HOW SMALL, INGLORIOUS AC- COMPLISHMENTS IN OUR CLASSES ARE STEPPING STONES TO GREATER THINGS. ART IS ESSENTIAL TO INVENTION.

She is also an excellent swimmer. A Barbara Rothman, Girls' Marshal Pert Barb is always well-dressed and neat. Her radiant personality puts pep and glamour into the dances she helps plan. Her enthusiasm is evident in all she undertakes, such as her hobby in collect- ing menus. Barb is interested in everyone and al- ways has time for a friend. Hedda Sprohge, Vice-President Hedda, who was born in Germany, has an avid interest in languages. Besides being an honor roll student, her bubbling enthusiasm and zest for liv- ing are evident in her eager participation in cheer- leading, Student Council and numerous other activities.

Quiet Carol Lene- berg and Annette Rawls are two of the sweetest girls in the junior class. Memories are made of these .... How solemn, how inspired we felt when Gayel Panke played the organ in the Christmas Pa- geant! The way we cheered for Paul Kreinheder and Tom Niezgoda as they swam to victory and helped bring down part of the swimming pool ceiling! Hedda Sprohge and Mike Mercurio were such bright and energetic cheerleaders! Bill Blumreich certainly is versatile. He managed the football team and was a king in the Christ- mas Pageant. How pretty Judy Bannister looked as a Spanish dancerl Agile Kevin Walsh, Bob Heberlein, Jim Ryan, George Johannes, and Gerry Kalisz fought so valiantly on the basket- ball court that we couldn't help being proud even in defeat! Didn't Barb Lang, Loretta Silvaroli, Judy Seitz, and Ro Marinaccio, the girls in the junior quartet, look cute dressed in kilts as they sang in a football assembly? Thank you, seniors, for the many contributions your class has made to Kensington High School. Our way is made smoother and better because of your efforts. lConhnued on page 63l Rooms 241, 100 BOTTOM ROW' L. DrRrenzo, M. Catalana, M. Eoannuccn, J. Goldsmith, A. Alston, M. Walty, N.

A new idea at the dance this year was the selec- tion ot Miss Sweetheart, Sylvia Hahin, and Mr. Cupid, Paul Barth. The debut ot the talented Gary Vallett Quartet was on eminent success and aided in luring couples onto the dance floor. We predict the future success of all mentioned on this page and also of all modest sophomores whose hidden talents are as yet undiscovered. Rooms 259, 266 BOTTOM ROW: L. Statler, G. Schmidt, P.

Nancy Crotty, Judy Dubiel, Joan Festa, Sue Gutowski, Judy Hogan, Nancy Klein, Rosie Mentley, Lorrie Schweizer and Chris Szuba enjoyed skating and tobogganing at Alle- gany State Park during the sub-zero weather. Heedful: Sports offered a challenge to which Sophomores replied in great numbers: Don Brad- ford, cross country letter, Jon Bergstrom, Paul Bauth and Gerry Beaver, football letter. Dick Frei- tag and John Mauer: All-High Chess Medals. Ver- satile Andy Boncore is an all-around athlete, scor- ing points in football, basketball and baseball. Dick Munzert also did his share plus in football. As for as swimming goes, Pete Bergstrom cannot be for- gotten. His terrific work this year for Ken enabled us to come in second in the All-High swimming meet. Teddy Markiewicz, through his tireless effort and Mr. Millard's enthusiasm won the champion- ship in table-tennis over very stiff competition. Mr. Millard, whose home room overflows with letter men, has chosen for 207's slogan: The only thing for which we don't pay ls all the fresh air we get every day. r-. 1 i T1 , -X, Rooms 304, 311 BOTTOM ROW: J.

Phras- ing, stress, and energy are emphasized in training actors skilled in the projection of lines as well as the art ot pantomime. After learning fundamentals, students apply these principles in assembly programs. Such a course, under the able direction of Miss O'Meara, not only gives training in dramatics but also helps many acquire poise and the ability to teel at ease in a group.

At the Veterans' Administration Hospital, volunteers worked every day in the Pharmacy and the Central Supply Center. On the second Sunday of every other month, the organization provided an A Cappella Choir for the Protestant Chapel serv- ices. The Junior Red Cross also sponsored a radio show over the hospital's own station, featuring Ken- sington talent. At school, the group met to make favors, tray mats and gifts to be sent to area hospitals on such holidays as Christmas, Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day.

Coach Bergstrom's charges opened the season against Seneca full of spirit. The team built up a I2-O halftime lead, but a determined Seneca team bounced back with two quick touchdowns in the 4th quarter to tie the score I2-12. Ken stopped a desperation drive by Seneca on the 3 yard line to preserve the tie. Next the Knights took on Grover Cleveland. Ken led 6-O at the half, but Grover came back to tie the score at 6-6 in the last quarter. At this point it looked as if the Knights might set a record by tying all their games. The team had other ideas, however, and scored their lst extra point of the sea- son to take a 7-O lead over Tech. Tech scored, but the extra point was blocked, and Ken won 7-6 for the lst victory of the season. Then came the big game with East. The Orien- tals were sporting a 9-game win streak and were the team to beat. Ken broke that win streak by tying East 6-6. The game was a hard-fought battle from beginning to end. The team then moved to Civic Stadium for a game with Burgard. Last year Burgard handed the Knights their only defeat and Ken was out for re- venge. Burgard took a 7-6 lead, but Ken scored in the last quarter to win I2-7. The last game of the regular season was the tra- ditional battle against Bennett. The Knights played excellent football and romped to an easy 26-7 vic- tory. Every play worked perfectly and it seemed that Ken couldn't make a mistake. Bennett's only score came late in the last quarter. This closed the regular season. Kensington fin- ished with a record of 3 wins, no losses and 3 ties. This record gave the Knights a second place finish in League Two. East took first place by one point. Ken then met McKinley, who had finished second in League One, for third place in the overall stand- ings. Ken took an early 7-O lead and coasted to a I3-6 win. The second team and substitutes saw plenty of action as the McKinley team proved to be an easy victim. Fred McNeil was named to the All-High first team at Fullback. Fred was also an outstanding linebacker and defensive guard. road Counfry jinialzeb ucceaafuf .gzagion Flashing past the very capable Coach Duke Duquin, in their new green hoods, the boys of the Cross Country team started their rigid training early in September. Duke's harriers had three short weeks in which to train before their first meet in which Ken- sington finished second behind Technical. In the second meet, on October 6, which Burgard won by a narrow margin of three points, Ken tied for sec- ond place with Riverside. Burgard had 38 points and Kensington and Riverside had 4l each. On October l3, Ken's meet with East and Ben- nett was cancelled because of rain.

Once more the rain fell on Delaware Park, but Co- captain Walt Flattery managed to slide across the finish line in sixth place, one place short of All-High honors. He was followed by Mike Conlin, 30th, Co-Captain Dick Bartha, 3lst, Paul Krein- heder, 32nd, and Don Bradford, 4lst. Bob Nusall, Jim Bendig, Bob Thurlow and Dick Faber also ran well for Kensington. The team tied for fifth place with Bennett. Cross Country earned 5.5 points toward the Wil- liams Cup Race.

The team played brilliantly many times, but the unavoidable lack of experience showed up when other teams would press near the end of the game. ln many of the games, our team played exception- ally well during the first half, only to lose in the fourth quarter because of this lack of experience.

Injuries played havoc with the team this year when no less than three of our big men were in- jured, 6' 5 Charles Baschnagel was counted on to be the center this year, but he was hurt before the season started.

Le- sinski, The Kensington Mermen, under Coach Berg- strom's capable direction, can look back upon this year as a successful one. Ken handed the favored East team its first defeat, leaving the Knights and South Park the only undefeated schools in our league. Paced by Co-Captains Tony Lemper and Al Mudd swimming in the l00 yard backstroke and the 200 yard Freestyle, we won over South Park. Bill Carpenter in the 200 yard Freestyle and Tony Lemper in the 100 yard backstroke paced the Ken Mermen in a thin victory over the defend- ing champion Riverside. lt was not an easy vic- tory, however, the individual events needed the points of the relays to reach the winning score. As always, our l20 Medley Relay with Tony Lemper swimming backstroke, Paul Kreinheder, breast- stroke, and Jack D'Amico, freestyle, and our l6O Free Relay with Jon Bergstrom, Al Mudd, Jeff Cunius and Tom Niezgoda, clinched out victory in superior form. ln the All-High Meet, Peter Bergstrom, our vic- torious l00 yard Freestyle man, lost out by a touch. Ken's 1955 All-High Backstroker Tony Lemper placed second in the l00 yard Backstroke, then returned to swim the opening leg of our l20 Med- ley Relay. The most exciting event of the season was the decisive l6O yard Relay. Jeffery Cunius glided to a good start, followed by Jon Bergstrom, who left emain Mnolekafecl leeway for the next man, Don Robinson. Speeder Robinson left o wide morgin between himself and the South Park man. Thanks to Mr. Bergstrom's never ending pa- tience and coaching, this year's swimming team brought much pride and city-wide recognition to Kensington.

With Spring comes the thought of baseball and as usual Coach Bergstrom is trying to knit together a contender for the Cornell Cup. There is a good nucleus returning and our hopes are high. With pitchers Dick Waz and Dick Faber coupled with Kevin Walsh, catcher, we should have a good battery. Hitting power will be supplied by Frank Payne, third base, Nick Longo, short stop, Wally Huff, second base, and Gerry Kolisz, first base. The outfield sluggers will include Don Robinson, At this writing bad weather has held the sched- ule back and has also dimmed our hopes. The team started well, beating East l4-l, but then we were defeated by Seneca and Burgard. If good weather will prevail we are looking forward to winning our remaining games and finishing well up in the standings. Baseball Scores Mike Romance and Tom Kremer.

As it ap- pears now, the championship will be decided when we meet them. On the team, Dennis Dux, Paul Mudd and Lewis Cropsi are our Singles men in that order. The first Doubles combination includes AI Mudd and Ted Berger, second Doubles, Arthur Radeff and James Russo. Our capable eight man is Tony Panskey. Much rain and even snow, typical phenomena of Buffolo's spring weather, have given the team little time to practice, nevertheless, we have an ex- ceptionally fine team. This year, we have only two Seniors: Al Mudd A. Radeff, T. Berger, A. Ponsce, Mr. Nilson, Coach. and Lewis Crapsi. Next year's team will have six members and appears to be well set as a strong contender for the championship.

Harlos With the return of four lettermen: John Berg- strom, Captain Dick Bartha, Art Foley, and Tony Spirito Santo, and the large turnout, our prospects for a successful season look good. Pre-season train- ing has been hampered by extremely wet weather, nevertheless we finished our first meet against McKinley and Grover with victories of ol to 23 and l5 respectively. Our second meet against Seneca proved a set back, the scores being Seneca 59h, Ken 36, and Bennett l3M. Our third meet should bolster our courage again, before we face the top teams of East and Burgard in the finals. Outstanding in the lOO yard dash are Art Foley and Russ Desaulnier, while Elliott Pfeiffer and Dick Wolff are our top 220 men. Promising in other events are: Ed Jenis and Bob Nusall in the 440, Dick Bartha, Ed Schneider, and Paul Kreinheder in the half-mile, Bob Thurlow, Ron Zimmerman and Bob Nowlan in the mile. The field events will be led by: Jon Bergstrom, Ed Schuster and Don Rusceolelli in the hurdles, Al Dolata, Glen Goodwin, Corkey McDonald and Art Bauer in the Shotput, Matt Smith, Miles Moun- teney and Roger Dungan in the Broad Jump, Carl Holstein, Dave Parrish and Roger Dungan in the High Jump, and finally Tony Spirito Santo and Gene Vinal in the Pole Vault. Our Relay with Matt Smith, Art Foley, Jon Berg- strom, and Elliott Pfeiffer, and our Freshman Re- lay with Ron Robishaw, Chuck Schwender, Terry Rose and Russ Desaulnier should do well to help our track team finish a successful season. lST TRACK MEET Ken' ............. ......,.,......,.... . 61 McKinley ....., , ..... .

WILL THESE EVER COME WITHIN THE GRASP OF MAN'S COMPREHENSION? NOW MAN'S IMAGINATION TAKES HIM THROUGH THIS MYSTERI- OUS SUBSTANCE IN STREAMLINED SHIPS, PROPELLED BY A SERIES OF CONTROLS EMPLOYING THE MOST COMPLICATED SCIENTIFIC PRINCI- PLES. AT HIS ARRIVAL UPON THE MYRIADS OF BODIES ACCOMPANYING OUR EARTH ON ITS JOURNEY THROUGH SPACE, HE SUPPOSES THAT HE WILL ENCOUNTER GROTESQUE PEOPLE OF ROBOT-LIKE OR ANIMALIS- TIC STATURE. WHEN DELVING INTO THE CULTURE OF THESE PEOPLE, HE FANCIES THAT THEY POSSESS A WAY OF LIFE SO FAR IN ADVANCE OF THE EARTHLINGS AS TO MAKE HIM WONDER. IMAGINATION IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE. WITH- OUT IT, THERE WOULD BE NO ADVANCEMENT. WILL THESE, THE FIG- MENTS OF MAN'S IMAGINATION, ONE DAY AID HIM TO MEET THIS CHALLENGE, THE CHALLENGE OF SPACE? 138 F'1a11et'hi Sluclio P11010 C11 dP11SFS 1371 Kensington Ave. AM 7015 BUFFALO 15, N.

Our gratitude goes to the entire physical education department for their efficiency in arranging the larger pictures, and for their management of the athletics write-ups. Finally, all our teachers deserve a big Thanx for their aid and patience during our trials and tribulations. To Miss Lehde, Mr. Roberts and the en- tire staff and administration, we are especially grateful for their willing and capable guidance throughout the year.

A teacher affects eternity, he can never tell where his influence stops. So future generations of Kensingtanians will know the fine policies which the former principals developed, on May 29 we dedicated a memorial plaque to Mr. Thomas J. McDonnell, Mr. Charles J, Monan, and Mr. John N. Chassin. The program, led by Dr. Eagan, included music and the placing of flowers before the plaque. Fac- ulty members presented brief eulogies. Mr. Meegan said, Mr. Thomas J. McDonnell's foresight was that ofa genius. Our first principal, he continued, administered Kensington with strict but kind discipline. To Mr. McDonnell, education meant manners, poise, grace, ease, integrity. Recognizing no short cut to success, no substitute for honesty, he brought us to national fame through his inspirational leadership. Mr. Bergstrom emphasized Mr. Charles J. Mon- an's concern for scholarship, his keen interest in athletics, and his success in arousing great school tContinued on Page l75l The choir, under Miss Townsend's direction, provided musical interludes, 4 Jcnaingfon .jslonord jormer rinciloagi - gonfinuecl lContinued from Page 1741 spirit. He recalled Mr. Monan's favorite slogan, Let's go, we can do it! Mr. Bergstrom stressed the remarkable attainments of Kensington stu- dents in many diversified endeavors during the principalship of Mr. Monan. ln commemoration of Mr. John N. Chassin, Mr. O'Donnell called him a great educator ,... an admirable mixture of mildness and force. . . Here was a man who was kind, sympathetic, humble, sincere, idealistic, - above all else, chari- table. Mr. O'Donnell commented on the high standards of education and the versatility of ac- complishments which Mr. Chassin fostered. He termed Kensington an infinitely better place for his having labored here for seventeen and one half years. In the second part of the program, the Memo- rial Day address was delivered by the Reverend Joseph Kelly, S.J., and the seniors placed a wreath before our memorial to Kensington students killed in World War ll.
