Over one hundred and fifty ambi- tious freshmen were eager to begin their life in high school and set a high mark of achievement. The luster soon wore off, the fear was overcome, but the ambitions remained. Be- ing endowed with much physical energy and very strong voices, we were soon known as the noisiest class in school. Vx'e realized how important we were when we had our own Freshman Party and chose a king lKen McCarthyj and a queen lGing Haudenshieldl. The Sophomores bold, we know our stult. Only thing is, we don't know enough. The sophomore year brought forth new interests. Everyone was now quite at home and becoming much better acquainted with school in general. We ioined clubs, elected class officers lwho were Harry Hoyson, John Dazen, Virginia Haudenshield, and Bette Rudolpht, and our dance, the Eight-Thirty Special, was really a smooth affair. There were so many new things to do that before we knew it we were iuniors. Juniors now, with hopes so high, Seniors soon, if we but try. Here we are juniors, showing the underclassmen our shiny new rings. Blue and white decorations, music by the Be Bops, and girls in swishing gowns combined to make the Junior Prom a gala affair. This year we even persuaded Mr. Lee to let us have a skating party, The officers were John Drost, Charles McVicker, Grace Schulte, and Alice Tetereff. At last the senior year arrives, A memorable part of all our lives. Suddenly the Class of T948 was on the home-stretch, it had entered its final year of school. This year, as previous years, traveled on wings of the wind, stopping only for the senior class play, and, though it was hard work, everyone had a good time trying to make it a success. At the senior dance with its colorful autumn decorations, we changed a precedent by choosing the best dressed dance couple, Clara Jean Hayes and Charles Snyder, The Friday morning lectures were very edu- cational, and we proved our salesmanship during the six weeks of the Magazine Campaign. Again this year we arranged a skating party, which turned out to be a huge success. And finally came Baccalaureate and Commencement with their tradi- tional formality. Again eagerness prevails-eagerness to see the new life with all of the ioys and hardships it can after. We leave school with a feeling of reluctance and a slight touch of sadness, but with the hope that we and our class will linger long in the memories of our classmates and our teachers.

She has gone as for north as Canada, as far east as the Atlantic, south as far as Texas fond even crossed the border into Mexicoj, and west as for as Colorado. She spends a good deal of her weekends in Indiana County, Pennsyl- vania, where she was born, and of which she is very proud. Miss Brandon has a great interest in dramatics. She especially likes the Dramateur Club and enjoys directing the senior play. Is she a nice person? Without one bit of doubt it can be said that she deserves any praise she is given. She has a very calm manner and a personality that has won her friendship from students and teachers alike. There are always a few students sitting around her desk because she is so pleasant to talk with, and many will never forget the friendly bits of advice she has given. We are proud to dedicate the 1948 yearbook to you, Miss Brandon. Having your picture on our page of dedication gives an even more special touch to our book. E 4 l
