Through miles of prairie lands, vast forests and mountain ranges they came, . An ever moving line of men, gold-crazed, Who swarmed the state in droves like hungry wolves, Looking, searching, tearing at the ground for just a little morsel- Gold, bright and heavy, Golden rocks of power, pleasures, and prosperity- There for the taking. We are the Forty-Niners of today Upon the threshold of a broader life, Our aim, not riches of the soil, but of the soul. Knowledge our shining light- -A light that lifts the veil of ignorance -A beacon of progress, understanding, freedom. To make the world a better place to live, A peaceful world with human brotherhood. DEDICATICD TO Mrs. Blanche Adams Burd who, for Twenty-Five Years, has taught young boys and girls in Kew-Forest School, with patience, thoroughness, skill, and in these pupils has built the foundation for a well-rounded education, The Blotter of 1949 is affectionately and gratefully dedicated. THE BLOTTER JAMES L. DIXON, A.M., Ed.D Rutgers Heudmuster The Forty-Nincrs A rommonweulth of folk, Jtrong und free, Now niurhf the goal of their urgofy- A living monument, .rufe und ture, To the men drawn weft hy the golden lure. Thofe wextern Jhorex, could they fpeak, would tell Of urgonuutf loft in the ocean! Jwell, Of gruuex, Jtone packed, on iz purehed trail- The Forty-Ninerf' great epic rule. Such huzurdf, new uenturery of forty-nine, May never your youthful mreerx entwiney But mark you well, df you Jhoulder lifelr loud, The glory trail if no eufy road. l LUCY ALLEN SMART fMrs.j AB., A.M.

HE Student Council, organized early in the school year of 1944- 45, is a gradual development from the Leaders group formed twenty-two years ago by Mr. Guy H. Catlin, Co-Founder of Kew- Forest School. The Council is afhliated with other similar organizations in the country. The presidents and vice-presidents of all High School classes and major organizations comprise the membership of the Council. Within the group there are several committees. They include the executive, judicial, philanthropy, civic-pride, and lost and found. An oath of honor, drafted by members of the Council in 1944, has been sworn to by all High School pupils. By the oath the pupils have promised To uphold the honor and preserve the traditions of Kew-Forest School, to respect superiors and co-workers, and to avoid any form of dishonestyf, Every year the philanthropy committee supervises drives in the school to raise money for worthy organizations and needy, de- serving people. Also, members of the Council supervise and assist in Study Hall and Library. More and more responsibility is being assumed by the group of leading pupils as the opportunity arises. One problem in this busy school with high academic standards is to find time for extra-curricular meetings. The Council tries to meet for twenty minutes, Monday at noon. The members are: john Nicolle, president, Barbara Bruns, vice- presidentg Virginia Russo, treasurer, Ellin Brown, secretary, Robert Aissa, Margaret Allan, Peggy Batterman, Joan Berman, Susan Coul- trap, joan Gill, Barbara Goedel, Helen Heuston, John Iskyan, Paul Kalina, Herbert Kalisch, Katherine Kindred, Peter Kray, Eleanor Le- vine, Louis Moskowitz, Jeanne Nettel, Patricia Okoshken, Lois Schon- gut, Bruce Slater, Grace Stone, Peggy Streifler, Barbara Weiser. Dean Lucy Allen Smart has been Adviser since the organization of the Leaders group. 44 THE BLOTTER HEN young children are trained to give to people less fortunate than themselves they will become men and women who will be interested in altruistic endeavors in their communities. Since this is the conviction of Kew-Forest School, philanthropy is carefully planned and organized from the Kindergarten through High School. The work of the philanthropy committee of Kew-Forest School ap- peals to every pupil and faculty member in the school. There is a friendly rivalry among all classes and home rooms and each group tries to surpass all others in the amount given to the object of charity in each drive. This year between Thanksgiving and Christmas the appeal was made to give to Number One of The New York Timer Neediefl Carer. The result was that 35260 was sent to the Timex to furnish the needs of a four-year-old boy who was destitute. The Kinderdorf Pestalozzi at Trogen, Switzerland, a war orphanage, under the direction of the United Nations, was the second group helped to the sum of 5153.52 In January, 35152.79 was contributed to the Queens Cancer Com- mittee. Also, in that month, the Infantile Paralysis Foundation appeal was answered to the amount of 315279. In March, the American Red Cross made the annual appeal and the pupils and teachers responded with a contribution of 364461. The chairman of the philanthropy committee for 1948-49 has been Mette Lie, home room representatives: Paul Kalina, Louis Moskowitz, Lois Moss, Peggy Orr, Virginia Russo, Peggy Streiiier, Barbara Weiser. The Lower School teachers and Dean Lucy Allen Smart are Advisers. Philanthropy Seated-Peggy Orr, Barbara Weiser, Virginia Russo, Mette Lie fChairmanJ.

THE BLOTTER NUMBER of years ago, two brave Kew-Forest School boys joined two girls to form a mixed quartet and delighted their fellow students with their programs. Until this year, however, no other boys have been willing to appear in the programs of song. During the past year a new organization, the Boys Glee Club, came into being, organized and directed by Mrs. Ruth E. Narramore. This new glee club has steadily grown from only a few members to fifteen and has participated in many of the special programs and assemblies of the school throughout the year. The Boys Glee Club made its debut in a Thanksgiving program and has since shared the spotlight with the Girls Glee Club in the entertainments at Christmas and Easter. The repertoire consists largely of college songs and appropriate seasonal music. On April 11th, the Boys and Girls Glee Clubs, aided by a talented group of Lower School children, presented a program for the Kew-Forest School Association. From the members of the Boys Glee Club a male quartet was formed and in special assemblies this quartet combined with girls for a mixed octet. Besides providing program material in assemblies and for special occasions, this new organization has other equally important aims: musical experience for all its members, sight reading in part singing, and also some basic training in the rudiments of music. Since Kew-Forest School is co-educational in all classes, it is ap- propriate and gratifying for the boys and girls to sing together. The 1948-49 officers of the Boys Glee Club are: john Iskyan, presi- dentg Arthur Hess, vice-presidentg and Robert Staab, librarian. Sealed-Mrs. Ruth E.

Narramore, who became a member of the Faculty last September, and who has done exceptional work with the Glee Clubs and Ensemble groups. The Ensemble is a group of girls who have passed special singing requirements, are genuinely interested in singing, and are willing to give extra time for rehearsals. This year the Glee Clubs have been given a very special privilege. Besides regular rehearsals at certain designated noon times during the week, a special period in the morning has been assigned. This extra time gives an opportunity to improve the programs with the music that everyone loves. During the first semester the Girls Glee Club and Ensemble PIO- duced a Thanksgiving and also a Christmas Program. The former in- cluded the Prayer of Tbmzkgiififzg and many other favorites. The latter program was unusually beautiful this year. A narrator told the story of the birth of the Christ Child, the Glee Clubs sang traditional carols, and the art group produced the scene of the nativity. The Glee Club has also produced several programs for assemblies during which selections were given by the Girls and the Boys Glee Clubs and by a mixed octet. The program featured such well known songs as Yozfll Never Walk Alone and Calm at the Nigbi. In April the Girls Glee Club made its annual trip to New York to see a musical play. The 1948-49 Officers of the Girls Glee Club are Ellin Brown, presi- dentg Peggy Batterman, vice-presidentg Denise Dewan, secretary and librarian. 47 Girls Glee Club THE BLOTTER l ai 6 Debating Team .L aim?

URING the past years, since 1928, the Kew-Forest School De- bating Team has been participating in tournaments held under the auspices of the Long Island Inter-scholastic Debating Association. Dr. james L, Dixon has been the adviser from the beginning. Among the subjects of these debates were such topics as federal arbitration of labor disputes in basic industries, socialized medicine, one year of compulsory military training for all male citizens, the lowering of the legal voting age to eighteen years, and world government. This year, however, it was decided to hold an oratorical contest during the week of May 6th, in place of the annual debating tourna- ment. A number of schools in the Metropolitan area were represented by members of their debating teams who were permitted to choose from several different categories the type of speech that they preferred. Since this tournament was scheduled to take place after the Blolfer went to press, the results of the contest could not be recorded in this year's book. The members of the Kew-Forest School Debating Team are coached this year by Dr. james L. Dixon and Mrs. Hazel B. Robison for con- tent of their speeches and presentation, respectively. During the year the pupils have acquired additional experience in public speaking through the regular presentation of oral themes in the English classes. Members of the Kew-Forest School team participating in this ora- torical contest are Barbara Bruns, captain, Jeanne Nettel, vice-captain, Helen Heuston, manager, Margaret Allan, Peggy Batterman, Ellin Brown, Edmond Dewan, Herbert Kalisch, Eleanor Levine, and Sheila Shapiro. 48 THE BLOTTER HIS has been a fine music year for the Lower School! The aims and purposes have been: faj to enjoy many forms of music, Cbj to participate in many music activities, Qcj to learn to distinguish among different types of music, and Qdj to see the relation between music and other life activities. One of the most interesting projects has been the forming of an orchestra. For the first time in the history of Kew-Forest School, the Lower School organized an instrumental ensemble which has played for programs throughout the year. It was during the third week of school that Mrs. Ruth E. Narramore, music teacher, believing that there was outstanding talent among the children, started to organize the group. Numerous orchestral instruments were brought to the class room. Introductions and demonstrations of each instrument aided the boys and girls in choosing their instruments. It was not long until approximately sixteen boys and girls were experimenting with their new violins, trumpets, and other instruments, The method of instruc- tion throughout the year has been group work. At the end of seven weeks the orchestra performed creditably on a program. Since then they have played on several occasions. Success? Yes, each pupil has gone a long way this year in orchestra, and it has been great fun. Nearly every child has had the opportunity of participating in some way on special programs. Beside solos and small groups, larger chor- uses have helped to make the programs successful. These programs have included: Columbus Day, Hallowe'en, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Lincoln and Washington Birthdays, Valentine's Day, Easter, a musical puppet show, and a spring program entitled Many Lamir.

Studio Club HE Studio Club's most important single proj- ect has been the contribution of art work to the Blotter, but the students have also produced posters and scenery for the school's activities throughout the year. Miss Enid T. Doyle planned an excursion to New York for the members when the Frick col- lection was reopened to the public. The members also attended and enjoyed a lecture at the school offered by Miss Annie Reese, an authority on Wedgwood products, who explained the intrica- cies of the craft. The members are: Robert Aissa, John Brehmer, Richard Bush, Charles Castro, Vasilia Contomano- lis, Carlotta Cronin, Denise Dewan, Gretta Dur- nell, Daniel Fales, Arthur Hess, John Iskyan, John Keating, Robert Landes, Eleanor Levine, Henry Schwaeber, Albert Slater, Bruce Slater, Robert Staab, Adele Timpson, joy Williams.

Le Salon Francais HE members of Le Salon Francais have added zest this year to an organization of long standing. At Christmas time they gave an inspiring rendition of such traditional airs as Sainte Nail, feafzelie Isabella, and Gloria in Exrelfif Deo. Mr. Homer J. Cleary, the Adviser, provided the ac- companiment. In order to improve their fluency in the lan- guage, Le Salon organized a French table at which members exchange ideas, every two Weeks. These luncheon chats afford valuable practice in con- versational French. Perhaps the outstanding single event of the year was a visit to the New Paris Theater to see Sym- pbaaie Parlorale, an excellent French film. The following are the officers of Le Salon Francais: Susan Coultrap, president, Margaret Al- lan, vice-president, and Mary Stone, secretary and treasurer. THE BLOTTER El Circulo Panamericano The Platter Purveyors and l-lostesses L CIRCULO PANAMERICANO has had a very interesting curriculum this season under the leadership of its Adviser, Mr. Homer Cleary. There have been many discussions during class periods concerning the foods, customs and culture of the Spanish speaking people. Their interest aroused by these discussions, the members decided they would like to organize a Spanish table in the Kew-Forest dining room. With the help of their Adviser, this was soon accomplished, and many diverting lunch periods have been enjoyed by the members of El Circulo Panamericano. The members are: Barbara Weiser, presidentg Lois Schongut, vice-presidentg Patricia Okoshken, secretary and treasurer, Peggy Batterman, loan Berman, Denise Dewan, Beverly Dornau, Helen Heuston, Robert Murphy, Sheila Shapiro. CCORDING to the Blotter of past years, the high sounding name of The Planer Pm'- zfeyorr was given to the indispensable waiters in the school dining room, in the year 1952, when the waiters were all boys. After a number of years, girls became purveyors. Only girls served from 1945 to 1947. In 1948, two boys and four girls served, while during 1949, as the picture shows, boys and girls are working together, happily. A number of Senior girls act as hostesses at the tables where young children eat luncheon at the first shift. These girls who, by example and pre- cept, have trained the young boys and girls this year are: Ellin Brown, Barbara Bruns, Susan Coul- trap, Beverly Dornau, Patricia Okoshken, Virginia Russo, Lois Schongut, and Elaine Sonnenschein.

At jiryt gently and then in euer increaying fury Sheety of rain peppered the dry and yrnohy countryyide, The jieldy and diytant hilly. The yuminer foliage, dry and crackling, Bathed ityelf in the coolneyy, And the wet fragrance replaced the duyty, death-like yniell of battle, The guny, at layt yilent, cooled their parched lipy, dry and burning, With the dropy of rain that rolled like waterfally of their black tired franley Rain, Rain, Rain. It beat the ground inercileyyly into dirty pochety of nzud, And formed ytrearny of water that lapped gently the lifeleyy bodiey That lay thickly arnong the battered woody and pack-nzarhed peldy. It echoed ity rnelaneholy tune on the wagony where wounded rnen lay groaning, Trying to ytauneh ugly, ytrearning woundy, And ity handy yearehed the faeey of thouyandy that lay huddled on the ground Exhauyted, Dazed, Wiping the beady of yweat and gently yoaleing ity cool touch on their tired bodiey. Rain, Rain, Rain. The rain beat ity wild tattoo upon the yoahing branchey of unbroken treey And deoaytated jieldy of wheat and corn, Leaving in ity wahe a wet and fragrant yrnell, A eoolneyy, a reytful peacefulneyy arnid the battered ycene. Then it increayed in fury till exhauyted, it ceayed abruptly.

He was to be confronted for two weeks with two grownups and a girl, three years his senior. No wonder he looked reluctant as his parents drove away. They weren't just driving home to Scarsdaleg they were going three thousand miles away-clear to the West Coast-to Seattle. He was to be ours for the duration of their stay. johnny was a sight. His hair had been uncut for over two months. With this long straw-colored hair and alert blue eyes, he looked like Jody of The Yearling visiting us. This hair was the undoubted envy of every other thirteen-year-old boy, His parents left implicit orders for it to be cut the next morning. Dad didn't agree with johnny's parents. His theory was that while on vacation, there was was no reason or time for a haircut or a bath. Johnny agreed to that completely. He vowed he wouldn'-t have a haircut until school started. Every time Mom or I would kid him about its length, he would look irritated and reply, Aw, you're jealous. Why? we'd ask. Because yours won't grow short like mine grows long. His baths were limited to a once-a-week battle with a cake of soap while swimming in the lake. Usually, though, he was pretty well aged, There were some boys his age nearby, so he'd sail and swim and rough-house with them. One evening, when the boys' plan to sleep over night on a small island met with disaster, they stayed at our house. Each of them had had three full meals, five ice cream cones, and eight bottles of Coke. No wonder they just wanted to sit in front of the fireplace, telling jokes and eating marshmallows. One would say, Have you heard this one? Yeah. It's old. Did you hear the one about the Atom cereal P Naw. ., Well, it doesn't pop, it doesn't crackle, it doesn't snap, it just lies there and sops up the milk. Thank you, Joe Schmoe. Now, a word from Joe McCarthy. Such were the long- haired evening conversations. The Sailors' Dinner was Friday, but johnny didn't particularly want to go. Why should he? There wasn't any trophy for him to get. You can easily imagine the bore- dom which diii'used from johnny as we drove to the Yacht Club. He had on old khaki trousers layered with dirt which no washing machine could clean. But he didn't care. The awards were given out after a very wearisome dinner Cso johnny thoughtj. There were the August week-end series for the Star class sailboat, the August week- end series for the Lawley 15, the novice prizes, and, then, the August mid-week series for Lawley 15's for girls and boys under sixteen. Heather Ogilvy won the first prize in this series. She had bright blonde hair plaited down the back, freckles like polka dots and blue eyes. Iohnny's own eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Hey, isn't she cute? She sure must like sports, was johnny's reply to her smiles. 58 THE BLOTTER We left soon after. The atmosphere in the car had changed from boredom to ecstatic enthusiasm. I was happy, too. Tomorrow night was the Farewell Dinner and Dance at the Yacht Club. At breakfast next morning johnny came shining down the stairs. It was as if the sun had broken through dirt-filled clouds. You could smell the soap! He'd taken a tub bath-not a lake bath. He casually inquired if anyone was driving to Newport. He wanted to ride along and buy some new Western comics, he said. When I came from swimming, I noticed that the car was back from Newport. There stood Johnny. I froze in my tracks. Believe it or not, johnny gleamed. A white halo graced his head between the new crew cut and the old sun tan. While I was dressing for the dance that night, I heard a quiet tapping on my door. Johnny stood there, his filthy khaki trousers in his hand. Would you please press these for me? Sure. Thanks. A bath, a haircut, and neat clothes. Ah, the sweet alchemy of love that can change the ways of even my duration brother.

What makes the crickets chirp so P What makes the robins sing? The owl just grinned and answered- Why don't you know-it's spring! rl There's somethin' funny in the air- It's there but can't be seen,' It gives the flowers pretty smells,' To the lake, it gives a sheen. It makes the sky above so blue That e'en the clouds look high, When actually, they're just so near You can touch 'em if you try! The doggie looked astonished And scared of this grand thing. He left the owl, all glowing About this thing called spring. Loss FIERSTEIN, '50 Thoughts If it were only possible to write The thoughts that daily trickle through my mind, The things that possibly today seem trite, And so in passing, they are left behind, If I were able to remember all The fears, the joys, the pleasures, even strife, The many things I cannot now recall, But made their jirrn impression on rny life! And so my thoughts keep changing day by day. My childhood fears and joys now seem unreal. The thoughts I have today, tomorrow may Be only things the future can reveal. Our thoughts, like flowers, are born to grow and die. We do not understand the reason why.

BARBARA GOEDEL, '49 Pete Nationale OR the first time after many long years of strife, deprivation, and suffering, a people celebrated their national holiday in full gala spirit. What july 14 meant to millions of Frenchman the summer of 1948 is not easily described. Glimmers of happiness were visible throughout the day on the faces of these people so long oppressed. Actually, it wasn't until nightfall that the vibrations of festivity penetrated the air like an electric current. As day slowly passed into night, people began to appear on their doorsteps, to gather in the squares, to pour down the boulevards, and to crowd before the Opera House and Notre Dame, to stand on the Place de la Con- corde or before le Palais de Chaellot or L'Arc de Triomphe. The buildings were lit with enormous projectors, the gargoyles spat fountains of water, the street lamps made patterns against the dark sky. But most beautiful of all stood our lady, Notre Dame, tall, sober, simple, exquisite: a white silhouette against the pitch blackness of night. Fire works skitted through the air. People danced and embraced in the streets, people different from those we are accustomed to seeing on Times Square. These people, who saw and felt the sufferings of war on their shabby backs, in their half-empty stomachs, on the faces of their children, were genuinely happy! Yes, they danced, and laughed, and sang, and drank in each other's happiness with their eyes iand hearts. No rioting, no deafening noise! Only music, clear, inspiring, exhilarating music!

H tI1'l67l1,.f streets were, oh, so lonely, Now he had no pal or friend. Big Son-white-stood thinking only How this family move would end. Big Son Then one day as he was playing In his yard with small sail-boat, He heard a small voice saying, W'hile tugging shyl y at his coat, Say feller, can you really sail her? Does she float and skim along? Sure, replied Big S on, you hetcha! Floats along just like a song. So they sauntered to the park lake, White and negro, as they should- Big Son and his new found playmate, Depicting man's great brotherhood. PEGGY BATTERMAN, '50 Life's Cycle There is a time in life for everything: The spring, for love and laughter, When all around is gaiety, and new creation. The summer, for maturity of things Conceived in springtime- The fruits and flowers of prosperity and joy.

Wintertime, when all things go again to the dust from which they rose, Good things and had, away from matter to eternity.

MARGARET ALLAN, '49 Escape DAY in the middle of October, 1944, a man I had never seen before came to see my aunt, with whom I was living at that time. I had been away from my mother and father for four and a half years, because of the war. I was looking out of the window as he came, but I did not take much notice of him. After a few minutes my aunt called for me and I rushed downstairs, where I was met by this newly arrived man, who called himself Bill. As that was what he called himself, I understood he was from the underground movement. After a short while he asked me if I wanted to see my father. Yes, of course, I said, but Father is not in Norway now. Bill's reply was that if I wanted to see him, I had to come to Sweden with him. My answer was yer, and before I quite realized what had happened, I found my- self in Oslo with a rucksack with all my essentials and in the company of Bill. On our arrival in Oslo, we went into a store where Bill talked to another man. All I understood from the conversation was that I was going to stay at a place till six o'clock in the evening, where I was put to bed, so that I could be rested before the trip started. Bill and another man took me in a taxi to a place about ten hours' walking distance from Sweden. Here we had to cross a lake by motor boat. On the other side we climbed into a truck, which was built so that the ceiling and walls were of hay. The road was in bad condition and after a while I was sick, and did not care too much about what was happening. I felt the car stop and heard a German voice say something. I thought the soldier had discovered what was inside the truck, but after a while, we started again. At midnight we came to a little cottage in the woods, where we spent the night. Early the next morning we were on our way to Sweden on foot. It was hard walking in the forest, and my rucksack was heavy, but after seven hours of continuous walking, Bill said we were in Sweden, away from all Germans and in a free country. Two days afterward I met my father in Stockholm. METTE LIE, '49 66 THE BLOTTER LOWER SCHOOL LITERATURE The Forty-Niners T was hard for the Forty-Niners pushing westward back in the days of the Gold Rush, but there was gold in California and so everyone started on a long journey to try to get some of it! The people traveled by oxcart, in covered wagons, and on foot in order to get to California. However, in 1949 we don't travel by oxcart or covered wagon, but by airplane, auto- mobile, and trailer. We are not searching for gold any longer, but we are searching for uranium out West. Uranium is very useful to us and is used for building railroads and many other useful things in our every clay life. EDGAR KENT, '57 My Dogs I have twenty-four lillle dogr. Two of there are twinr.

When I got out there, to my surprise, a puma was lying dead on the ground. I walked some more and then, to my surprise, I saw a wounded lion. Next I met a leopard in that forest path and he seemed very sad. Then I met a tiger. He seemed very happy and proud, because he had scratched the bear. There was something in a tree. When I saw what it was, I couldn't believe my eyes, but there it was, plain to see. It was the bear right up in that tree. I guess the tiger won that fight.

THE BLOTTER ERE CH LITERATURE eanne cl,Arc EANNE D'ARC est une grande sainte francaise, si celebre que des centaines de recits de ses brillantes actions ont ete publies par les plus grands ecrivains. Les episodes tragiques de sa vie ont forme des pieces de theatre emouvantes. Maintenant, a Page du cinema et de la television, la vie de Jeanne d'Arc est presentee sur Broadway et bientot dans toutes les villes des Etats-Unis et du monde. Un beau film en couleurs pr-esente la vie de la vaillante jeune lille qui devint Sainte en defendant la France contre l'envahisseur et en mourant courageusement et toujours fidele a son destin et 51 ses croyances. Dans ce film la grande actrice Ingrid Bergman a tenu son role. Jeanne est nee a Domremy, village de Lorraine. Ses parents etant pauvres, elle gardait les moutons. Cest en prenant soin des troupeaux qu'elle a entendu des voix qui lui demandaient de sauver sa patrie en danger. Ses voix l'incitaient a aller voir le Dauphin afin de lui donner une arm-ee. Tout d'abord le Dauphin se moqua d'elle, mais elle se montra si pleine de sagesse et d'intelligence que le Dauphin consentit aux projets de Jeanne. Il lui donna une petite armee et elle alla bouter les Anglais hors de la France. Elle fut blessee a Orleans, puis au siege de Paris. Ses soldats l'admiraient. Elle fut ensuite faite prisonniere par les Anglais. Elle comparut devant un tribunal militaire. L'eveque Cauchon qui dirigeait le proces la traita de sorciere et cle folle. Elle subit toutes sortes d'humiliations, mise en prison, les fers aux pieds, elle fut condamnee a etre brulee Vive. Elle mourut sur le bucher, a Rouen, sur la Place du Marche. Les Anglais comprirent qu'ils avaient brule une sainte, que leur erreur etait irreparable. Chaque annee la France entiere honore Jeanne d'Arc un dimanche du mois de mai.

La Revolution de 1848 venait de cornmencer, et les gens de la France commengaient a entendre le nom de Louis Napoleon. Aussi, beaucoup de changements avaient lieu a Paris. Le Louvre, le musee celebre, a ete complete apres beaucoup d'annees de travail. Un nouveau clocher a ete ajoute a la Cathedrale Notre Dame. On projetait le Bois de Boulogne, un des parcs les plus beaux du monde. De nouvelles belles rues, comme le Boulevard de Strasbourg et la Rue de Lyon, on ajoutait a la ville, et on a bziti les Halles Centrales. Oui, les Etats-Unis n'est pas le seul pays de l'histoire de laquelle l'annee 1849 etait tres irnportante. BARBARA BRUNS, '49 75 THE BLOTTER SPANISH LITERATURE Tributo URANTE los cuatro anos pasados, hemos aprendido a amar y respetar los tesoros fantasticos de gente y libros envueltos en nuestro edificio. En este lugar milagroso se puede ser trasladado a los sitios mas imaginativos y lejanos que pueda concebir la mente humana. Delante de nosotros se extiende la alfombra magica como una conduccion a las extrernidades de la tierra, y nos pide que subamos a bordo. Encontramos a todos los tipos de gente en este lugar del cual hablamos, igualmente con objeto unico-la Erudicion. Estos jovencitos seran algun dia el fundamento de nuestro pais. Tal vez desee Vd. saber donde esta este lugar maravilloso y quienes son estas personas maravillosas. O Vd. ha conjecturado, acaso .... Este lugar de tales maravillas es nuestra propia escuela, Kew-Forest. PATRICIA OKOSHKEN, '49 Lois SCHONGUT, '49 Puerto Rico UERTO RICO no es verdaderamente rico. Tiene dos millones de personas pobres. Por muchos aios los puertoriqueios han sufrido a causa de sueldos bajos y precios altos. No han tenido maquinaria moderna ni muchas vacas y cabras. Casi siempre usan cabras en vez de vacas porque las vacas se caen en las Colinas empinadas. En Puerto Rico ha habido pocos hospitales y medicos. Muchos ninos han estado sin ropa y los pueblos han estado sucios. La enfermedad ha esparcido raipidamente. Pero en los arios recientes Puerto Rico ha hecho progreso. Los jovenes estin aprendiendo a trabajar y desenvolver una norma mas alta de vivir. La gente ha desenvuelto la educacion libre, los caminos, los hospitales, y la sociedad. Muchos misionarios de los Estados Unidos han ido alla para servir de medicos. En Nueva York hay cien sesenta mil puertoriqueios. Casi todos tenian trabajo en su pais pero vinieron aca para buscar mejor trabajo. Muchas senoritas han llegado a Nueva York, sobre todo ensenadas en los quehaceres de casa, para aceptar empleo en nuestras Casas. El gobierno de Puerto Rico maneja su ensefianza. Puerto Rico esta mejorando el bienestar de su poblacion, Acudamos a la ayuda de los puertoriquefios que estan aqui.

BRUCE SLATER, '51 Fantasia de mi vacacion del verano RA una noche inusitadamente Caliente. E1 aire estaba pesado, y no movia ni una hoja siquiera. El dormir era imposible, y reposaba silenciosamente mientras miraba fijamente la obscuridad. De repente, de un modo muy misterioso soplo una brisa fresca en el dormitorio. En un momento cai a un sueio profundo. Mi suefio no habria podido durar much tiempo, no obstante, porque el viento soplo cada vez mas tempestuosamente hasta despertarme. Cogi a mi cama con mucha fuerza pero a mi horror, parecio como si volara verdaderamente por el espacio, llevada en mi manta magica. Mite por el lado y vi una ojeada relampagada de las calles, las personas, y las luces. De repente, me di cuenta de queestaba rumbo a visitar a la America del Sur para mi vacacion del verano. A lo lejos vi a Cayo Hueso y me di cuenta de que viajaba en el Camino identico que seguian los Clippers americanos. Estaba segura de que si encontrara un clipper el enviaria adelante las novedades inusitades de una muchacha que viajaba por el cielo sobre una manta. Al mirar por encima del borde de la manta vi muchos volcanes, islas, y lagos. Hice visitas breves a Guatemala, San Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, y al fin al Peru. Tome el tren de la Sierra, ascendiendo los Andes, y aunque era el mes de julio, nevaba. Entonces vole por encima de la Paz, capital de Bolivia, y hice una parada para comprar algunas joyas de plata hermosa que hicieron los indios. Despues de darme cuenta de que los dos meses de mi vacacion habian terminado, empece a volver en las horas muy tempranas de la manana a Nueva York. Pasando por los edificios altos, di con una tempestad que volco mi manta, y pense que estaria en un fracaso tremendo. De repente fui sacudida, y cuando abri los ojos, mi madre se sostenia al lado de mi cama con una expresion rara en la Cara. Estuve a punto de decircle de mi suefio, pero me senti que era una vacacion demasiado fantastica-aun por un sueno.

ACROSSE was organized at Kew-Forest in 1935 by Martha Butler Klug. In 1936, Mrs. Klug was a member of the United States Touring Team which played in England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. When she returned, an English Lacrosse coach visited her and helped teach Kew-Forest School girls the finer points in stickwork and team play. Throughout the past fourteen years, Kew-Forest School has engaged in many different types of competition, interscholastic, intramural, Play Days, where from three to six other schools participated. Sixty Kew- Forest girls have placed on either first or reserve New York School Girl Teams. Since 1944 the varsity has played the New York Women's Lacrosse Association annually and has a record of three wins and one loss with them. Several National Tournaments have been held in this area, and Kew-Forest girls have played in exhibition school girl matches, served on hospitality committees and sold tickets. Last year the National Tournament was in New York, and was pre- ceded by a School Girl Tournament. The following girls were chosen to combine with Friends Academy and Beards School and play an exhibition match at the tournament: Barbara Goedel, Martha Mayers, Jane Miethke, Virginia Russo, Grace Stone and Mary Stone. At that same tournament, Phyllis Levine was named a member of the United States Reserve Team for the second time. Other Kew-Forest girls who have risen to All-American status are: Ruth Buck, Gloria Heath, Jean Kissock and Ioan Wigton. Two coaches from England will train Kew-Forest School girls in Lacrosse this spring. Due to inclement weather the games scheduled for 1948 were can- celled. 85 Lacrosse W THE BLOTTER Soccer October 15, 1948 Kew-Forest School ....,.....,..,,,.,...

Delahunt, a softball team has been formed for the younger boys of Kew-Forest School, this year. Realizing that many of the boys are as yet too young to compete for places on the Varsity baseball team, the Coach, Mr. Dela- hunt, decided it would be wise to form a softball team for the younger boys. He knew that they would enjoy softball more. Also taken into consideration were the injuries that might occur if many of these inexperienced boys were given the opportunity to play with the older boys. Mr. Delahunt's idea has been an immense success. Many more boys have come out for practice than at first expected. With such an en- thusiastic response to the idea, Mr. Delahunt has thought of scheduling several games with other schools that play softball and also to include many intra-mural games for the development and enjoyment of the boys. This introduction to baseball through softball will better enhance the chances of the younger boys of making the Varsity baseball team, later. At the same time it enables the older boys to have many more hours of hard practice. Thus dividing the boys into two squads, one playing softball, the other practicing for Varsity baseball, betters the quality of play produced. This plan seems to be an immense success and is certain to be con- tinued during the coming years at Kew-Forest School. Fin! Row-Morris Tenner, Peter Kray, Warren Kingman, Stephen Masters.

The Artist, loy Williams OY WILLIAMS is the artist to whom the Blotter is deeply indebted. Sincere grati- tude and appreciation are expressed to her for drawing all Division pages and all Senior cartoons for the Blotter of 1949. All of this creative art was accomplished in a short time before she left Kew-Forest School, December 1, 1948, when she and her parents moved to York, Pennsylvania. The school that she is now attending in York is indeed fortunate, for that institution has acquired a pupil of talent. In the Blotter of 1948, Joy drew the clever cartoons that illustrated the history in that thirtieth anniversary number. Joy was enrolled in Kew-Forest School, September, 1946, by her mother, Mrs. Roy C. Davenport, who as Doris Earle, when a little girl, had attended Kew-Forest School. It was the expectation that joy would attend this school all through the High School years. An reooir was said to her last December, with regret and with thankful hearts. Competition of Reds and Blues Among Girls HE annual contest between the Red and Blue Teams, including all girls of the school, draws to a close. It is impossible as the Blotter goes to press to choose the winner for the year 1948-1949. The Reds won first place in 1927, 1929, 1930, 1931, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1940, 1943, 1947, and 1948. The Blues were victors in 1928, 1932, 1933, 1934, 1935, 1936, 1941, 1942, 1944, 1945, and 1946. 98 THE BLOTTER Boys Athletic Awards Presented May 21, 1948 Mr. and Mrs. James H.
