EMORIAM Miss Bessie V. Reiver, B.S., M.A. Teacher in Red Lion Schools from 1918 to 1954 Thou art not idle: in thy higher sphere Thy spirit bends itself to loving tasks, And strength to perfect what it dreamed of here Is all the crown and glory that it asks. -James Russell Lowell 19

SENIORS ay back in the year 1951, in a land of not so very make believe, 145 eager and carefree cubs gamboled up the hill, poked their noses through the door, and began their careers as freshmen in Red Lion High School. That first year they certainly were an energetic and industri- ous pack of young lions, scampering over the campus in their ex- citement, meeting new classmates, winning a prize for their float in the West York pep rally, joining various clubs, and becoming ac- quainted with new and different studies. By the time they were sophomores, the cubs settled down a little more, realizing suddenly they were in their first year of senior high . . . new privileges and also new responsibilities. Then came the exciting junior year, with a taste of work on the Hilltop staff. Some members of the class were elected to the honor societies, and others with dramatic ability were seen in the class play. i Then, all too soon came the year when they were senior lions, a year full of fun and hard work. The Lion, Hilltop, play, dances, games, all the excitement, anxiety, and worry of being a senior . . . finally fulfilled. Yet l'll always remember them as my little cubs.
