Mr. Hall- gren’s team went through the season undefeated in 1949 and won the champ- ionship. The experience of working with these young. athletes had been so absorb- ing and satisfying, Hallgren decided to take a teaching job. He went to Millersburg, Pa., where he® taught social studies and also was coach of all the sports at the school. He became a licen- sed sports official for the PIAA, and only recently gave up officiating at sports While at Millersburg he (Continued from page I) He even worked during his lunch hours, sometimes shoveling snow for some- one, then hurrying back to school. Saturdays and sum- mers he worked on Henry Heisey’s farm and delivered ice. Had to quit school When he was in the ninth grade he had to quit school and go to work. He got a job with Wallace and Fisher’s tire store in Lancaster, and before long was expert in cutting grooves in re-tread tires. His employers were im- pressed; it was only a couple years before they made young Pat manager of their store in Columbia. Meanwhile, World War II had started and America entered the war. Pat en- listed, served overseas, and was discharged as a sergeant in December, 1945. The Business and Profess- ional Women’s Club of Mount Joy is participating in International Women’s Year in Pennsylvania. Governor Milton J. Shapp launched International Wo- men’s Year in Pennsylvania with these words: “The nation will pay tri- bute to the major role wo- men have played in the two hundred years of Ainerican history and the effort they will continue to make to- ward the economic growth, political effectiveness, social * progress and educational de- ea Re Hallgren also studied at Bucknell University and earned a master’s degree in school administration and guidance. In Millersburg he also met and then married Mary Elizabeth Daniels. They have three children: Mary Ann, Mrs. Stephen Mohr of Bainbridge; Betsy, a student at Michigan State University; and Barbara, a student at Donegal High School. Returned to Donegal In 1955 he returned to his home town as guidance counselor and history teach- er at the new Donegal High School. In 1960 he became assist- ant to the principal of the high school, and then in 1961 was made principal of - the Donegal High School Annex, which has since be- come Beahm Junior High School. In 1966 he was chosen as vs +» Pat Studied nights The war over, he came back to Marietta and took a job as aircraft receiver and checker at the Middle- town Air Force Base. He also continued his education studying at nights with the American School. He earn- a high school diploma, then went on to study account- ing with La Salle Exten- sion University, and leader- ship training with Pennsyl- vania State University Ex- tension. Another new interest was developing. He was spend- ing more and more time with Lillie Fortune, a girl from Bainbridge he had known for 4 long time. In 1947 they were married. They have one son, Patrick Kenney, III.

Mrs. Betty S. Brown, Scranton, President of the supervisory principal of the Donegal School District, and in 1970 became Superintend- ant. In this steady advance to more and more executive responsibility in the school system, Mr. Hallgren has moved further and further away from satisfactions of working directly with young people that first attracted him to education as a pro- fession. He spends his days meet- ing with officials, reading reports, filling out forms, making broad decisions, and signing his name to docu- ments. Frequently, his only direct contacts with stu- dents occur when they get into some kind of trouble, not the happiest contact between teacher and pupil.’ Job is to make teaching easier _In the rather small build- Kenney began now. He joined the Marietta Jaycees, the first black Jaycee. It was in the Jaycees that Pat developed his talents for leadership and service. From the Jay- cees he won awards for dis- tinguished service. As Ex- ternal Vice-President of the Jaycees he got to know lots of people all over south central Pennsylvania. After the Jaycees he join- ed the Marietta Lions. He became the first black presi- dent of the Lions. The list of other honors won by and offices held by Pat Kenney is too long to print. In 1966 he took a posi- tion with the State Human Relations Commission, in which he covered 39 coun- ties, checking on alleged cases of discrimination against people because of their ethnic or minority background.

The sight of those children as he passes their door, and the sounds of their voices trickling into his office, heartens Ragnar Hallgren, reminding him in the midst of his abstract administra- tive tasks of the essential nature of his business - the teaching of children. Those children at Wash- ington School help him keep in mind that his job is to make the jobs of teachers easier, to take care of all the administrative detail ne- cessary for the operation of the school system, so that the teachers can do their best job of helping the children of Donegal to learn. In 1968 he became the first Executive Director of the Lancaster City-County Human Relations Commit: tee. Philosophy of human relations, The outstanding local leader in the battle against discrimination, Pat Kenney as a black man personally knows what it feels like to be snubbed and rejected. But when it happened he never let it get him down. He did not feel hurt and he did not hate the people who did it. He just kept on working and learning and seeing how he could be of service to other people. be Patricia Lindh, Special Assistant to the President of the United States for Women.
