The rooms and corridors of Ken Hi have been stamped indelibly in our memories. The school is a part of our lives. Each year has found us nearer our goal of graduation. Each year has found us older in many ways. We are graduating into an unsettled world. Many of our' classmates have already left us and are fighting bravely on battlefronts all over the world. Others will leave in the near future. After May 26, 1944, many of us will never meet again, Time will find us scattered over the entire earth. Time is the most important thing in our lives. Each minute brings us closer to victory and closer to the responsilibity which will be ours as educated citizens of America. Our high school years have been a constant March of Time, and our graduation will be a memorable milestone. The Taleoken of 1944 is our effort to capture permanently some of the transient memories of high school, so that as Time Marches On throughout our lives we may occasionally glance back into our happy high school years.

THE BUAHU Ui EUUEAHUN It is the function of the Board of Education of the New Kensington School District to see that our schools are properly organized and ad- ministered. Its members are a group of civic- minded men who realize just how important education is, and they have given of their time generously to see that the boys and girls of this town receive the proper schooling. Theirs is the job of making many decisions and help- ing to solve the problems involving the interest and welfare of the student body. The members of the board are Mr. W. Howard Stewart, presi- dentg Mr. A. F. Daughenbaugh, vice president, Miss Veronica Mazur, secretary, Mr. E. H. Blackburn, treasurer, Dr. E. T. Chapman, su- perintendent of schools, Dr. H. V. Churchill, Mr. M. M. Gillis, Mr. F. W. McKean, Mr. Charles Vaughan, and Mr. H. L. Wolf. 3-lg,-f EUPHllNllNUiNl UH. E T. EHAPMAN New Kensington High School is proud to have Dr. Chapman as director of all the schools in the New Kensington School District. His tasks include administering and coordinating the elementary grades, the junior high school, and the senior high school. Dr. Chapman's capabilities as our educator have been recognized in educational circles. Recently he was honored by Westminster Col- lege when he received the degree of Doctor of Pedagogy, His undergraduate work was done at Ashland College, Ashland, Ohio, and the Uni- versity of Pittsburgh. Dr. Chapman meets with the school board and carries out in detail the general educational program agreed upon by that group. Students and teachers are assured of Dr. Chapman,s interest in their problems and find his advice invaluable. The seniors look forward eagerly to Commencement evening when Dr. Chapman will present their diplomas. PHlNE4PMS MH. H. H. WEAVER Mr. H. B. Weaver, high school principal, has organized the high school so effectively and efficiently that it is largely clue to his eHorts that New Kensington High School received such a superior rating when the high school was evaluated in February 1943. Mr. Weaver's contacts with the individual high school student have made students and parents alike realize his keen personal interest in the welfare of each one. Former high school students and teachers now in service with the United States armed forces find a warm wel- come in the high school office and Mr. Weaver an eager listener to their experiences. In addition to his supervisory duties, Mr. Weaver gives much of his time to the Board of Activities, the National Honor Society, and the College Club. 14 l H O. W. Johnson Supervisor of Elementary Grades Last fall, Mr. Johnson moved from his position as principal at Main Street to be- come supervisor of all elementary gracle schools in New Kensington. 1 i J. A. Miller Principal of Vocational School Mr. Miller is principal of the New Ken- sington Vocational School. He also directs evening classes at the high school. 15 J. R. Sisley Principal of Junior High School Leaving his post as science instructor at Ken Hi, Mr. Sisley became principal of the New Kensington Junior High School last November. He supervises all work in seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. lil MlMUHllM MISS MARY UYJVHTEUN Last spring, the New Kensington High School faculty lost one of its most beloved members, when Miss Mary O. Watson died. Miss Watson had taught the children of New Kensington for many years and evoked deep respect and admiration from her students and colleagues. Her classes were inspiring and in- structive, and her students considered her more than a teacher-she was an invaluable friend who had each pupil,s welfare at heart. Last year she became the Dean of Girls, but she had only a few months to act in that capacity. Her death was a shoclc to the entire community and she is missed by students, faculty members, and ad- ministrators. HXEUHY MARY B. ALTER -4..,m7g History HAZEL ARMSTRONG History, Civics R. A.

With a club of 35 the first semester and 50 the second, members of the junior and senior classes, the club continued to be active throughout the school year. Under the capable leadership of Miss Boucher, the Tri Hi Y endeavored to live up to its purpose: To create, extend, and maintain throughout the school and the com- munity high standards of Christian character . A rally, candy-coolcies day, a tea dance, a mother-daughter banquet, and welfare work were among its activities. A vote of thanks is due the officers. TRI HI Y Row 1: A. Horton, S. Stokes, J.

HIY This is a boys' organization supported by the local Y.M.C.A., whose purpose is to seelc, to create, maintain and extend high standards of Christian character throughout the school and community . Senior high school boys are eligible for membership in September and April. Several weelcs after they have been elected, the new members are subjected to a rigorous initiation. They wear short pants and old shirts, their hair must be parted in the middle, and they carry cigars, candy, and chew- ing gum, which are quickly appropriated by the old members. All the members, new and old, are fine boys, who are a credit to Ken Hi and to the community. Officers who led the club in a very prosperous and active year were: Steve Bazzano, president, Tom Henry, vice president, Bill Marr, secretary, Jack Crum, treasurer, and Charles Glendenning, chaplain. Mr. Jefferson directs the activities of this club. i V, LEADERS CLUB ' f First Row: M. Dinsmore, P. Nevling, S. Grotefend, P. Hammond, M. Retz, J. Gabella, M. Johnston, Sinclair, D. Bonidy, B.

Under the supervision of Mr. Ralph Myers, these boys have volun- teered their services to the schools. In any weather conditions, whether it be rain, shine, sleet or snow, the patrol boys are on duty at their posts, The primary purpose of the Junior Patrol is student safety. Besides the actual guarding of the crossings, the boys attend meet- ings to discuss safety measures and also take part in parades and other civic events. As a reward for this fine showing they are occasion- ally feted at banquets and are frequently given passes to the local theaters. Their real reward, though, comes from the feeling of service tend- ered to the community. DRAMATIC CLUB Girls and boys running around the schools with pistols!! Don't worry-they are only the members of the Dramatic Club advertising their annual play, Murder in Rehearsal . The proceeds of this successful play were used by the club for a trip to the Nixon, in Pittsburgh, to see a professional stage presentation. Some of the funds are also being saved for lights and stage equipment for future Dramatic Club work. This active club, under the able sponsor- ship of Mrs. Alice Klinlce, has succeeded in presenting radio programs, assemblies, original skits for initiation and plays monthly at even- BOARD OF ACTIVITIES The Board of Activities is the student gov- erning body at New Kensington High School. Composed of a boy and girl from each of the three upper classes, selected in their sophomore year, and aided by Dr. Chapman, Mr. Weaver, Mr. Vorlage, ancl Miss Boucher, they decide such issues as school activities, dates, assembly attractions, candy concessions, formation of new clubs and contracts. The Board of Activi- ties sent delegates to the Western Pennsylvania Conference for Student Councils at South I-Iigh, Pittsburgh, and to the State Conference of Studentrgouncils at Harrisburg. ....

MONITORS Much credit for the orderly conduct in our halls should be given to the Monitors, the boys who supervise the hall traffic at all times. The Monitors, under the direction of Mr. Mooney, assist the students during fire-drills, maintain order when assemblies are held, and help in air-raids. The club includes two sophomores, four juniors, and seven seniors, selected by the members and their sponsor. Two Monitors are on hall duty every period, acting as couriers. Their system of up', and down stairways has solved the confusion on the stairs between classes. They can be distinguished from other students by their bright red armbands. The officers are Jack Crum, president, and Donald Shaw, secretary. ASSEMBLY STAFF Did you ever wonder who sees that the pub- lic address system is in working condition for assemblies? Well, your answer is found, the members of the Assembly Staff. All these boys are trained to take care of all the incidental problems of a good assembly. They are also the boys who are responsible for showing movies in the classrooms or in other schools. If there are any troubles along the line of assemblies or movies, these are the boys who are called in. The able and important group is under the direction of Mr. Jefferson. BANK STAFF The Bank Staff takes care of the handling of the flnances of the school. The Staff consists of two tellers, a check-writer, four bookkeepers, two messengers, and two auditors. These stu- dents are chosen in their junior year for their ability, and they serve two semesters. They work with Mr. Vorlage, cashier of the bank. Among its many duties, it serves section rooms, classes, organizations, and individuals. Its newest duty, created by the war, is the sale of war stamps. The members of the Bank Staff deserve our praise for their efficiency. BANK STAFF knska, B. Fadrowska, J. Thompson H. Fulford, G. Remy. son, S. Ross, D. Bailey, J. Gabella M. Milauskas, C. Luchelti.

This has been eliminated by the publication of a small book, with information concerning school activities, rules, requirements, and the student reading list. The staff responsible for this excellent handbook is composed of ten members, the editor-in-chief being Jack Crum. Miss Owen and Miss Armstrong deserve much credit for their leadership, in publishing so suc- cessfully such a valuable book. The entire staff deserves a vote of thanks, for they have made it possible for both old and new students to be- come better acquainted with our school and to feel more at home. First Row: A.

Despite all its troubles this year, the band has come out on top. School had scarcely begun, when last year's director, Mr. Oliver, went to the Army. But the band was soon in great form with Mrs. Black as the director. And three cheers for Mrs. Black! Under her very capable direction, the band has zoomed through its activities for the year, ranging from football games to parades, from basketball games to radio programs, and from the annual concert to the big event-the choir and band party- in May. The band deserves the praise of the school for its fine work, its en- thusiastic spirit, and its splendid director. . A,VPd,.?' CHOIR Are we proud of our choir? We certainly are. Mrs. McDowell, with 80 enthusiastic members, has made this organization a very successful one, and a very popular one, too. The choir has a wide variety of music in its repertoire, and it has been very active this year. The mem- bers took part in quite a few radio programs, had their own spring concert, and presented the everpopular Christmas assembly. Its own big event was the choir and band party. This is the time when all the members really appreci- ate their daily effort to reach the school by 8:05. Yes, we are proud of our choir and their fine wor , recognized by one and all. DJ JUNIOR RED CROSS COUNCIL Last year a new idea was used for the organi- zation of the Junior Red Cross. This new idea has had a year's trial and has worked out very well. All students in seventh, eighth, and ninth grades are members. The council is composed of one girl and one boy elected from each junior high school section room. The repre- sentatives from the section rooms report the activities of the regular Red Cross meetings. This new organization enables all the students to be members. SENIOR RED CROSS Carrying on the system promoted the pre- vious year, the Senior Red Cross Council has continued its noble work. At the beginning of the year, two representatives from each of the three upper class section rooms are chosen to constitute the council. Under the able leader- ship of Mrs. Terwilliger, the club has success- fully undertaken several campaigns to aid in the war effort, foremost being that of packing Christmas boxes with soap, toothpaste, tooth- brushes, small toys, and other useful articles to be sent across to war stricken children. Also deserving recognition is the annual Red Cross drive, held in cooperation with the community drive. The approximate percentage of students cooperating in this drive is ninety eight, a highly commendable record. This active service organization is one of which Ken Hi can be proud.

The College Club was organized and sponsored by Mr. Weaver. Meetings are called when representa- tives from various colleges and universities in the East and Middle West, visit the school. They discuss their schools and answer questions of the students. On certain dates the members gather in the library to take special required intelligence tests and college placement exami- nations. The results of these tests determine those students who are eligible for scholarships. The College Club endeavors to help each stu- dent choose his school and course of study. Although it is not a social club, the College Club is very worthwhile to all its members. COMMERCIAL CLUB Junior and senior commercial students ap- proved by the commercial faculty, are the members of the Commercial Club. With Mr. Keiser as sponsor, the club holds two meetings a month-one a business meeting and one a social meeting. The members discuss business problems, and at the social meetings, guests, representing the business world, speak to the members in order that they may be better acquainted with actual business conditions. The club gives its members an opportunity to study the business world they will soon enter and thus gives them invaluable help. Its activities in- cluded a tea dance and a radio program. KENTONIAN The Kentonian, Ken I-Ii's newspaper, is pub lished by the journalism class. This newspaper reflects our school exactly as it goes . The students learn how to publish a newspaper and write editorials and feature articles. They secure interviews, draw cartoons, and report all the activities of the students, teachers, and our boys in the armed forces. Miss Russell super- vises the Ken Hi group, and Miss Frech, the Parnassus group. Robert Delotto is editor-in- chief, and he is assisted by associate editors, department editors, business managers and reporters. KENTONIAN STAFF Row 1: M. Johnston, V. Ander son, B. DeLotto, B.

The girls give up their study halls to help keep a list and records of late-comers and absentees. They make it possible for the office to have up- to-the-minute information about the attend- ance. When their regular tasks are done, they help the office staff by running errands and doing odd jobs. The girls deserve praise for their excellent work, which enables Ken Hi to have one of the finest attendance systems in the district.

VOCATIONAL BOARD OF ACTIVITIES The Vocational Board of Activities is the governing body for all extra-curricular activities in the Vocational School. The board is com- posed of representatives of each class who are elected in their sophomore year to serve for three years, and the presidents of the junior and senior classes. The Board of Activities sponsors an excellent vocational varsity basket- ball squad. The adviser, Mr. L. Black, has spent a great part of his time as coach and all around man for the achievements of this year. VOCATIONAL HI Y The Vocational Hi Y consists of Trade School juniors and seniors who measure up to the strict standards of the organization. The boys elected to this group are chosen for their character and qualities of leadership. Their purpose, as a club, is to promote clean living, clean speech, and clean sports in the Vocational School and in everyday life. This year the Hi Y has once more done more than its share in making a successful school year. With Mr. Frazier as sponsor, many social and community activities are planned at the meetings, which are held twice a month. During the past years this group has made itself known as a useful addition to the Vocational School and to this community.

' GIRL SCGUT COUNCIL Since the Girl Scouts have taken on a war service program, the idea of having a council sponsored by a teacher of Ken Hi was started last year. Any registered Girl Scout may be a member of the council, enabling girls of dif- erent troops to meet and exchange ideas. Miss Mathison became the sponsor and under her direction the members were able to register for different war courses, among which were First Aid and Home Nursing. A11 reports indicate that the courses proved highly successful and interesting. The Taleoken wishes to extend its best wishes for the success of this new organization.

If so the Camera Club is the school organization to which you should belong. The Camera Club members of this year found it very hard to fol- low photography since the war stopped the production of many photographic materials. But under the able leadership of Mr. Zeolla and Mr. Jefferson the club overcame this handi- cap by making better use of the material at hand. The members are looking forward to the return of the years when they will again be able to take an active interest in photography. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY First Row: S. Van Winkle, L. Bengston, M.

A ' VICTORY CLUB THE VICTORY CLUB The newest organization at Ken Hi is the war-born Victory Club, whose aim is to do whatever it can to bring Victory nearer. Every student in the school is a Uprivatev in the club. The chief duty of each member is to purchase war stamps every week, although the club also participates in salvage drives and other war duties. Each room has a captain who is in charge of the stamp sales for his room and is assisted in his job by a lieutenant from each row. A colonel heads each class, and, super- vising all of them, are the three hardworking sponsors, Miss Gosetti, Miss Mathison, and Mr. Lenox. The club has done an excellent job this year, and Ken I-Ii students are grateful to the club leaders who are responsible for the striking posters and slogans which have helped to raise the stamp sales to their high peak. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY As its name implies, this is an honor club. Members of this organization must possess the four qualities around which the club is built: character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Among the clubis duties are choosing the Big Brothers and Sisters, arranging the diplomas of junior and senior high school, and helping with other activities in the school. Its own big event is the annual semi-private dance, held a few weeks before Commencement, shortly after new members have been elected. The member- ship consists of seniors and a small number of juniors who are elected at the end of the year to carry on the activities. Miss Hawk acts as treasurer and other officers are elected at the beginning of each semester. The faculty sponsor is Miss Owen. V X vs Nj -J 'LJ' .fy .67 .J lllllllllll Slllll Row 1: D.

Johasky ran wild all afternoon but the game featured a runback of sixty yards by A1 Resek on an intercepted pass. The footballers had stiffer competition against Har-Brack but emerged a 9 to O winner on a seventeen yard punt by Johasky and a safety by A1 Resek. Taking advantage of several blocked kicks the flying raiders defeated Vandergrift 28-O. Mt. Lebanon's passing combination was too strong for the Kenmen as they lost a heart breaker 7 to 6 virtually to remove them from W.P.I.A.L. competition. Lou Percy starred in- dividually for Ken Hi. In a return engagement with a revenge-seek- ing Har-Brack eleven the Kenmen were held to a O to 0 tie. The Kenmen, somewhat crippled, played the Tigers to a standstill in a hard fought battle. The Kenmen lost their second game f the year when a well balanced McKeesport lileven topped them 13-7 at War Memorial S dw i r J , Hf rf elim! McKeesport. The Kenmen fought Valiantly in the final stanza only to be stopped by a hard charging McKeesport line. The Kenmen hit the winning trail once again against a strong Monongahela eleven. Lou Percy featured throughout with sizeable gains and Dick Clark culminated the scoring with a plunge to make the final score read 13 to 6. Closing their grid season in a blaze of glory the Ken Hi eleven battered their neighborhood rival, the Arnold Lions, by a 24 t 0 count. Lou Percy scampered 55 and 70 yards to feature the Ken Hi attack. Walt Charley played a bangup game at his tackle slot. A recapitulation of the seasons won and lost record shows five wins, two losses, and one tie game for a grand winning percentage of 71723 of their ball games.

The Flying Dutchmen of Ken Hi really sailed high, wide, and handsome this past basketball season as they copped the Section I championship for the first time since 1940. Sporting a magnificent record of fourteen wins in nineteen starts, the Kensters really showed the valley fans some high class basketball dur- ing the season. The Kensters proved time after time that they were never licked until the final whistle. This year's squad produced a rare combination of the will to win and that old de- termination that Ken Hi teams have exhibited from time to time. In pre-league games the Kensters took live out of six encounters, losing only to a strong Avalon team. The league season started rather auspiciously however for the Kenmen as they dropped a heartbreaker to the Glassers of Ford City 25-24. Then the Kensters really went to town as they mowed down all league oppo- sition right and left, copping eight league tri- umphs in a row before bowing to a vastly im- proved Har Brack five in the league final. But the Black Raiders of Ken Hi were again equal to the occasion as they met Ford City in a play- off game for the Section I Championship at the Pitt Pavilion. Although the Kensters trailed by ten points with only a little more than a quarter to go, they showed the spark of couragerof this yearis team and rose to great heights to defeat the Glassers 37-32 in a thrilling game with a happy finish. The Beaver Falls five proved too tall for the Kensters in a W.P.I.A.L. Tourna- ment game and the gallant Kenmen succumbed to a 50-40 defeat only after a hard fight. Much credit can be given to Coach Carl Glock for the magnificent way he inspired his boys by his lock- er room talks and skillful coaching of the team.

The 1943 season of Ken Hi's baseball squad, although none too successful from the winning viewpoint, developed greater cooperation and sportsmanlilce activities among the athletics on the baseball diamond. Coach Dunn's boys dropped their opener in a close ball game to Freeport 3-1. Then they hit their highest peak of the season by shading Tarentum 3-2 and walloping Arnold 15-3. That old jinx, Freeport, again beat the Kenmen, administering a 5-0 BASEBALL SCORES 1943 Ken 1 Freeport Ken 3 Tarentum Ken 15 Arnold Ken O Freeport Ken 6 .........,.. Tarentum Ken 3 .....,...,..

Three reverses in order closed their season, these defeats coming at the hand of Arnold 6-3, Springdale 5-3, and Springdale 3-Z. Many outstanding performers were devel- oped by Coach Dunn throughout the season. Lou Heiles, Diclc Clark, and Tom Henderson proved deadly hitters while Skip Speer and Al Puhalla were demons in the field. 3 2 3 5 5 6 5 3 Coach Dunn EHHHLEAUEHS U CHEERLEADERS First Row: Fritz, Woomer, Jiusti, Koperek, Anderson, Evans. Second Row: Parks, Pallone, Horton, Wilbur, Uhar, Timmons. The cheerleaders of 1943-1944 deserve the praise and admiration of the entire student body. They introduced several fine new cheers, and, in their bright uniforms, they livened up time-outs both in football games, and in basket- ball games. Their expert cheering is the result of long hours of practice. They were really in their element during the welcome cheer prac- tices. Jane Wilber, their able head, is greatly responsible for the pep and rhythm of the twelve boys and girls. The capable sponsors are Miss Rankin and Miss Pascaretta. DRUM MAJORETTES Under the able leadership of their head twirler, Marjorie Lucas, the majorettes go marching down the street leading the band. They make a colorful spectacle in their white uniforms and tall feathered hats. There are three girls and one boy: Marjorie Lucas, Ruth Lucas, Dora Sicilia, and Billie De Luca, who comes from a family of twirlers. Their routine may look simple to the spectator but only the majorettes themselves know how many long hours of practice are needed to gain such snap and precision. They have done a grand job this year, so let's give them three cheers and wish them more success in the years to come. MAJORETTES DeLucca, Siciiia, M. Lucas, R. Lucas FLAG TWIRLERS The flag twirlers, when they come marching down the fleld, attract the eyes of all. Although they are a comparatively new group, only four years old, they have already earned a name as a colorful addition to the band. Their white skirts, sweaters, and boots give them a trim, military appearance with the gay red Hags adding a touch of color. The precise and skill- ful performance of the twirlers, whether on the football field or the basketball court, have caused many favorable comments. However, behind their entertaining routines, are hours of steady practice in the gym, on the street, and at the field. These girls have done a grand job and have presented something new and dif- ferent to the public. FLAG TWIRLERS Beringer Astman Cheppena Hogan McMillan Callisthenics seem to be in order . . .

That is your brother, son, with whom you used to play. Mother, why does he march away so sad? He is off to join the wars, The wars that are wicked and bad. He is off to join the colors and the ranks of fighting men, Some of whom, my son, may never return again. He is fighting for a cause greater than the greatest oak, The right of righteous living under God,s solemn cloak. Three cheers for war in general. Those were the exultant words of one Benito Mussolini not too long ago. Recent events have proven that I1 Duce was as demented as those words might indicate. To Americans, he is a harmless fool, and Americans are intent on the job of reducing Hitler and Tojo to the Mussolini status. We have found the job to be a long hard war, which is far from receiving three cheers . We who graduate this year will be Hung from our somewhat safe positions into the ugly whirlpool of war. Our boys will be using the weapons bought with bonds and stamps they purchased in Ken Hi. Our girls will be helping to produce those weapons. The 1944 alumni of Ken Hi will join the already long list of alumni who are serving their country. More than one thousand men and women, who once roamed Ken Hi's halls as happily as we have, are now actively engaged in winning this war. The men and women whose pictures are on the opposite page were once employed by Ken Hi to teach the citizens of Thomas Henry the future. They answered the call of their country and are now fighting to make the future America a free and happy country. To them we owe our deepest respect. War is not a playground, and so there are gold stars on our service Hag, too. Those stars stand for the lives of boys who died for America- an America that meant to them the crowded streets of New Kensington, the corner drugstore, the happy memories of school days, and a home where their absence is an irrepar- able loss. Our fervent prayer is that the lists of dead and missing will soon be a thing of the past and that the boys and girls who are now only names on an Honor Roll will soon be walking the streets of New Kensington again. We must work hard to reach that happy goal. Optimists say it will be a matter of months, pessimists are predicting a duration of several years. However long it may be, it will end only by hard work and sacrifice. We are ready to make the sacrifices necessary to bring the war to a victorious conclusion. Second Lieutenant J. O.

We will probably remember something about the person, but his name will escape our memory as if by magic. Here we present a sure guide to the outstanding characteristics of some of Ken I-Ii's 1944 graduates. If you get to about the fourth name and wonder who's crazy- we are.
