Under the direction and guidance of Mr. Fabian and Mr. Millar, the Forum was established in cooperation with The International Poetry Forum, Pittsburgh Chapter. Through this international organization, students travel to the regular meetings to listen to the poetry and interpretations of contemporary poets. During the 1972-1973 scholastic year, the purpose of the club was to stimulate the members of the club to appreciate these literary works through interpretation and discussion of our contemporary poets and their works. 129

GLEE CLUB This year's Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Carmino Boni, has presented numerous fine concerts for the student body here at Kiski. Through their twice-weekly practice sessions, the club has polished its sound, and is indeed an outstanding Choral ensemble. ln addition, the double quartet, made up of eight members of the Glee Club, provides an interesting and harmonious counterpoint to the sound of the larger group. ln cooperation with other schools in the area, there have been concerts with these schools. Most notable of these was the Christmas concert given at the Presbyterian Church for the benefit of the St. Andrews Society. A high spot of the evening was Bob O'Bradovich's solo rendition of O Holy Night . We hope the Glee Club will retain its fine tradition and continue in the future to provide enjoyment and culture for the students here at Kiski. 128

This year's Chess Club was unfortunate in losing their long-time advisor and mentor, Mr. Robert Brinker. He was the founder of the club here at Kiski, and guided it for many years, arranging matches with other schools and helping the players to improve their skill at the game. Club membership had remained generally stable for many years, but this year there was a great upsurge in interest in this ancient game, due in most part to the much publicized Fisher-Spassky World Championship match. The club's new advisor, Mr. Porsche, arranged a match with the Kiski Area Chess Team on March 17, which our Kiski team won easily. Wins on the varsity level were recorded by Brungo, Floro, and Seal, with team captain Triana playing the first position to a draw. This was an excellent showing for the team, as this was their first match of the season, and Kiski Area had gone previously undefeated. 130
