The agreement to erect a new high school was signed by the Glenolden and Norwood school boards on New Year's Day, 1922. Clarence W. Brazer was the architect of the original school and the Norwood wing. The original cost was Sl29,UUU.UUg ultimate cost after addition of gym, new athletic field, and wing totaled 5302,864.55. First Latin classes met on the stairs of the Glenolden Elementary School. Ground was broken on the evening of May 26, 1921, when Glenolden and Norwood students with their faculties headed by members of the Ioint School Board, marched on a half-hour's notice up the dirt road to the ceremony. No appropriate exercises were scheduled because it was learned too late when work was to begin. The pick and shovel used to upturn first dirt was do- nated by Mr. Ezekiel Ralston, Ir., Norwood merchant. Dr. W. D. Lewis of the State Department of Education spoke at the Cornerstone laying on May 20, 1922. Contained in the cornerstone are a pen, pencils, a copy of the Chester Times, a car token from the old trolley line, a rubber eraser, some money, and a school book from each borough. April 3, 1923 marked the first day in the new school building. Classes used to start at 8 o'clock a. m. Glen-Nor was the first junior-senior six-year high school in Delaware County. The design for the school seal was drawn by William I. Hofacker. The stage curtains were given by the townspeople of both boroughs in November 1923. The grand piano was donated by the Glee Clubs. The flag pole was dedicated and the flag raised by the Knights ot Malta on September 25, 1926. School furniture was obtained from N. Snellenburg and Co. AW W MEM QW ygkcff PO X? 7564 50: addy QW!

The library now con- tains 5578 books. Glen-Nor became a member of the Association of Ac- credited Secondary Schools and Colleges of the Mid- dle States and Maryland in 1923. New stage furniture was given to the school by the PTA in 1946. A new powder room was set up in the Girls' Locker Room by the PTA in 1946. . Danny Englehart, Chief Custodian until his death in 1947, was a member of the original school board. 640 Glen-Nor Students served in World War II, of whom 19 were killed. CA DO YOU KNOW Q0 ,Q 17.

Time Marches on- Twenty-iive years ago people were jogging along in the enthusiasm of a post-war era. Women were experimenting with daring new hair-bobs and were shortening their dresses. Their husbands, harnessed in ear phones, were sitting for end- less hours at their crystal sets, waging a losing battle with sta- tic. More children were going to school than ever before in this country's history. School enrollments were leaping high, and towns were beginning great building campaigns. So it came about that in 1922 the thriving communities of Glenolden and Norwood began to dream of a new high school that would meet the needs of their children. Glen-Nor High School is the outgrowth of an idea conceived by a group oi progressive citizens from Glenolden and Norwood. The laying of the cornerstone on May 20, 1922, marked the fulfill- ment of a dream. The first session of school, held on April 3, 1923, marks the beginning of Glen-Nor's history. Time Marches On- Today is another post-war era that won't soon be forgot- ten. Marking it are wedding bells in austere Britain for Princess Elizabeth, trouble with Russia's vetos, bloodshed over the Pal- estine partition, inflation here at home, hunger abroad, and ei- forts on the part of the U. N. to bring about peace. Fashion circles are taking women back to the days of the Gibson girl, with yards of long swirling skirts, with bustles, and fish-tails, drapes and bows. Men are watching their new television sets. With the first crop of war babies now reaching school age, kindergartens are bursting and overflowing. Towns are again beginning to plan for an expanded future. Time Marches On- To Glen-Nor, the year 1948 is a particular milestone- the school's silver anniversary. In line with celebrating this an- niversary, the Chieftain is attempting to record the high- lights of G-N's achievements during the past twenty-five years and to emphasize the rapid progress which it has made in those years. May the next quarter century prove just as fruitful! .F A . PunllsiQleD sv rue srunenrs or GlEIl-ll0R HIGH slenolnen rcnnsvl 7923 - 79 8 rue ,Qh , 'flf Ji ff!! ' xl i 2 ll ll Mn. Mnnun R. O'NnA1. In recognition of his four years of outstanding service to Glen- Nor, the Chieftain staff gratefully dedicates this yearbook to Mr. Marlin Ray O'Neal. Mr. O'Neal was born in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. He has at- tended Shenandoah College, Dayton, Virginiag Lebanon Valley Col- lege, Anneville, Pennsylvaniag and the University of Pennsylvania. He came to Glen-Nor with much experience after having taught in the F ul- ton and Drumore Township Schools, Lancaster County, and the Pros- pect Park Schools, Delaware County. During his few years here at Glen-Nor, he has shown himself to be an invaluable addition to the faculty. As director ot all music or- ganizations, he has made the name Glen-Nor famous throughout the County. Under his leadership, the Band, including the Color Guards and Majorettes, has taken many honors tor uniforms, musical ability, and parade tactics in the annual Kiwanis Music Festival and in the annual Secondary School Band Day sponsored by the University of Pennsylvania. The Glee Club also has been immeasureably strength- ened so that it is now one of the most popular school organizations. Other musical groups that are gaining merited prominence are the Swing Band and the Brass Choir. Highlight of the year for all of these groups is the Spring Concert, when the community has a chance to ap- preciate the intense effort put forth throughout the seasons by all the participants. As sponsor of the Class of '48, Mr. O'Neal has demonstrated hard working powers and untold patience, despite the obstacle course he has had to run for the past three years. Perhaps the gratitude of the class for a job wcll done has not always been evident, but deeply ingrained in the hearts of all seniors is appreciation for the sponsor's unsellish efforts in their behalf. To Mr. Marlin O'Neal is extended, therefore, on behalf of the school and the senior class, a hearty thank you. The men and women who are most responsible for our school's policy, and yet are probably the least known to the student body, are those citizens of Glenolden and Norwood who form our School Board. Since the day Glen-Nor came into existence there have been many of these, all of them vitally interested in community youth, Officers of that important first board included a presi- dent, vice president, and secretary: F. H. Roberts, Robert Lewis. and Lamont Stewart, respectively. Officers of today's board include a president and a treasurer, who are members ot the elected body, and, as of this year, a secretary hired by the group. Serving in these capacities are W. Rust, I. S. Hebden and Mrs. B. Stewart, respectively. sm MR. W. W. Rusr President Mn. I. S. Hnannu Mx. I. W. Lauren Mn. H. C. HILL Treasurer Mn. O. Slmnnrncsn Mn. I. Rlcxrn Mn. R. Nmwr: Mns. D.

Sci-rwsnmc ILA eg., K Farewell, members of the Class of 1948: I am sorry to see you leave Glen-Nor, but in or- der to fulfill your destiny you must continue with your plans for the future. My sincere wish is that you may secure the ad- vancement you merit, and that the joys of the com- mencement season may be the forerunner of future suc- cesses together with contentment in your chosen fields. In parting, allow me to congratulate you on having received a liberal education from a generous community and a conscientious faculty. Success is within your grasp. You have sowed the seeds which will, if properly nurtured, bear fruit of which you can be justly proud. I have shared your joys and your sorrows, your successes and your failures. Now it will give me great pleasure to follow your progress in the game of life. At all times feel assured that Glen-Nor has re- served an important place for you in her garden of Russsu. E. BAMBERGER, M.S. Gettysburg College Supervising Principal memories. lElID GUIDHIICE As seniors, you are no atom bombs or super structures, but in your own world you have the po- tential power to do great things. Today-through knowledge won in class and on the field, through the endeavor of those who have tried so hard to point the way, you are ushered into a new way of life. You have reached but a plateau in life, the fruits are far above. You alone know the task you must be willing to tackle. May you recall days sparked by your quest for knowledge and memorable hours made gay by plea- sure, but may you not forget the mistakes which served as guideposts to a fuller preparation. Now you will join the throng of those who passed before you, and-WE WISH YOU WELL. May your achievements grow nobler with the years, and may reminiscences include many times thoughts of your alma mater. EDGAR E. Rrcmmns Russnu. E. BAMBERGER EDGAR E. RICHARDS, M. ED.

It's a far cry from 1922-23, when Glen-Nor's faculty included only 17 members and only one supervisor, Dr. Carl Leech, none of whom are still with us. Today serving on it are 31 teachers, and two administrators, Mr. R. Bamberger and Mr. E. E. Richards, all of whom hold at least a bachelor's degree. Thirteen of them also hold a master's degree: five, a Master of Edu- cation, seven a Master oi Science, and one, a Master of Arts. In addition, five are working for advanced degrees, one even on his doctorate. Yes, Glen-Nor's faculty is well qualified schol- astically. Apparently teachers like Glen-Nor, for the average teacher stays at least three or more years. At one extreme are Miss R. Hassler and Mr. R. Bamberger, who have been with us for the past 21 years, and Miss F. Biester, who has oeen with us for 19 years. At the other are Mr. ,js .7 Dn. CARL Lsncx-I, iirst principal, now County R.

From one small building of 15 rooms, Glen-Nor has grown to one of twenty-four, not to speak of the four administrative offices, the cafeteria, the auditorium, the athle- tic field, and the huge gym which are now part of it. From transportation along Chester Pike in trolley cars and a definite lack in recreational facilities, the community has progressed to transportation in streamlined buses, and to taking life easy in two new li- braries, five new parks tone of which totals 42 acres, and a new theatre. Truly, this has been a quarter century of real development! INSET: G1en4Nor High School in 1923. 1 pfwqftw in ,ichonl dxaq gt 1 9' ' mas. 'fgbfh' K .

Coach says the 25th year marks the end of those days of the awkward age. Gee, so I'm now full-grown. Me, just about to enter that good old prime of life. But before I put away childish things, I'll take one last nostalgic look through my scrap book. You know, I really was a New Year's Day baby, for it was on New Year's Day. 1921, that Norwood and Glenolden school board members F. H. Roberts, H. E. Allmang, E. M. Child, L. Coxe, I. L. Stewart, R. Lewis, S. C. Might, C, Duke, D. Englehart, and I. O. Howartte signed the agreement to erect me. Elan-'Finn Say, there's Dr. Carl Leech. Let me see, yes, it was in April' 22 that he was elected to be my first principal, but a principal with- out a school. You see, it wasn't until October 1922 that I first became an entity with grades ranging from the seventh to the eleventh. Before complete arrangements for my use could be made, the grammar schools of the two boroughs started the high school education of my first students. And there's a picture of another parade. It was the first day of school in the new building-April 3, 1923-an event to be her- alded by a dignified procession from old quarters to new. What a rugged looking spe- cimen I was then-a sea of mud all around me, scaffolding still up, and tractors still leveling the ground. J Mr. Bamberger in his renovated office. Mrs. Stewart in the new main ottice. Q , ' .- I Well if it isnt a record of my first as- sembly! Come to think, it was held in the Norwood fire house to commemorate Christ- mas 1922. Another clipping. It seems my classes increased so fast that a new wing had to be constructed in summer of 1927. An enroll- ment of 484 was reported. Isn't that some gym? I bet lots of schools around me envy me more than ever now. I remember how it came to be erected too. Up until 1930, pupils used to bring their lunch or go home for dinner. Feeling the need for a new cafeteria, the school board decided to build a new gym, complete with all kinds of latest equipment and to use the old gym, as a cafe. Splendid ideah! In step with my physical changes were my academic ones. The commercial depart- ment added new typewriters and tablesp the hornemaking department added child care and home management to its curricula: the library was reorganized under a new full- time librariang and I was recognized in l923 by the Association of Schools and Colleges of the Middle States. My, what are these? Glen-Nor Crier Staff, it says: Senior Record Group g Glen- Nor Democracy Organization p and Athletic Association. People say Glen-Nor has al- ways been a bee-hive of activity, and it must be so, if already these were started back in '23. It's a shame the first had to dis- band, for along with Lucky Strike Tobacco, paper stock went to war. I am glad to note. however, that the others are still with us, if under the names of Chieftain, Student Council, and A. A. Tempus fugit! fTime flies, for you who haven't had Miss Hassler.l It is now 1947. And here are more pictures. There's one of the new infirmary in Room l8Ag of the new main office cut from Room 10, of Mr. Bamber- ger's newly renovated private office: of Assistant Principal Richards' office on floor two: and of the new pastel tinted rooms fpeach, aqua, blue, yellow, and greenl. I've come to the end-for a while, that is, for I hear that blue prints have already been drawn for a new wing to house science laboratories and commercial education rooms. I hear, too, the auditorium is to be converted into a library and the present gym to be enlarged to become a combination athletic and assembly center. But sh-shh- I'm letting out some secrets. With the fervent hope they will become reality, I now close the scrapbook and say: May my next quar- ter century be even more full of progressl one of first signers of the agreement to build Glen- Nor and later school cu- stodian.

Gee! laughed his friend Iim Morton, you really are behind the times. They were re- moved about twelve years ago when the Pike was widened. Then Iim took his friend over Knowles Avenue to Llanwellyn. What's this? Where is our old swimming hole? Oh, it's still there, said Iim, but it's sur- rounded now by our beautiful park. Down in the Hollow are some fireplaces for picnicsg the tennis courts are up aboveg and across the street are two large baseball diamonds. This large stone building to your left is the public library built in l939. Whew! broke in Iohn, before I left, several clubs were collecting library fines, but we never hoped for such a beautiful place as this. lust opposite, continued lim, is the police station built shortly after the library. It has two modern cells besides garages for the police cars and borough truck. They continued out to Mac Dade Boule- vard and Iim gaped at the Glendale housing project. Yes, said lim, there are 250 homes where the golf coures used to be. Glenolden's and Norwood's population have grown im- mensely recently. Norwood Acres is another development just back of Seneca Avenue. It contains several hundred more houses. By that time, the two friends had entered Norwood and had just arrived at the new Nor- wood Parlr. Iohn continued: This was built in 1939 with the help of WPA. Note all the beautiful walks and roads that wind through 42 acres. It also has an excel- lent baseball field, football field and ice- skating rink. Norwood also now has a business section to be proud of at Winona Avenue and Chester Pike. if if . llhiwf-. .I V 'M A with V' f A Q -- - ru' .,, R- f Scenes ol Glen-Nor's first classes-the Norwood Ele- mentary School above and Glenolden Elementary School to the right. Both schools still serve the younger children of the boroughs. Oh, Iohn exclaimed, that was the small business development I knew as a boy. Well, don't tell me you don't remember those buildings-Sharpe and Dohme? You bet I remember them-some of the best biological research laboratories in the U. S, My, it's good to see them. For a while I was beginning to think I was Rip Van Winkle in disguise, but here I am-just another son proud to know his old home town is as pro- gressive as Atomic Energy.

Their training in typing, book- keeping, business math, shorthand, and office practice make them capable of taking positions as stenographers, bookkeepers and even in some cases, as secretaries. Because of this, the Busi- ness Education course is becoming more popular each day both with boys as well as with girls. ufm - ID 11 4 GENERAL The general student is usually one who is not planning on going to col- lege, but in most cases is going to go to vocational school, to enter business, or possibly to start one, or who is going to take some job immediately after graduation. In preparation for these various careers the general boy takes shop, mechanical drawing together with the required basic subjects while the general girl takes art and home economics. DEUEl0P THE mlHD in-I ACADEMIC Typical of classes for academic students alone is this mathematics class in action. Geometry, trig, languages and science typity the curricula of aca- demic students. In most cases these mark the pathway to college, and thence to the professions, engineering, and scores of other fields. This course does not concentrate on any one thing, but rather lays a foundation for courses taken later on. I - ,rcy jf -- i I if has LIBRARY Last we see a snapshot of the li- brary with its usual hushed stillness. Here is one room all students, no mat- ter what their curriculum, must frequent to keep up in their work. Here, too, is one room to which all seventh graders must come at least once a week for in- struction in library practice. Bnstc Naturally. there are certain re- quired courses all students must take. Among them are English, American History, Problems of Democracy tpic- tured herel, elementary mathematics, biology, gymnastics, and health. 1 .,.l .,. 1' 5143 s 3 1923-1948. Over this period, approx- imately 2200 students can claim Glen- Nor as Alma Mater. Coming in the sev- enth grade principally from Glenolden and Norwood Elementary Schools, they in 1923 totalled 302, now they total 632, and next year from all expecta- tions they will total 650, the largest in the school's history. As they journey on to Commencement, they pass through many Red Letter days - of fun-mak- ing at class parties, ot graduating from junior high, of receiving school rings, of attending proms, of enjoying class trips, of strutting the boards in the Senior Play, and, finally, of marching into Commencement in dignified cap and gown. INSET: the class ot '25-first class to complete three years in the new school-on its senior trip to Washing- ton.

Officers Class of '50 Left to right: Morris, secretary, Wilson, pres- dent: Whitaker, vice-president: cmd Bonsall, treasurer. Officers Class of '49 Left to right: Dent, secretary: Ferguson, vice- presidentg Hartung, president, and Levis, treasurer. Each year is vitally important, but certain years more so than others for the special thrills they hold. Class of '49 Outstanding events for the class of '49, for instance, this year included the Iunior Party held on September 19, and the Iunior Prom scheduled on April 23, both of which were highly successful. Finances, as usual, proved somewhat of a headache. To help defray expenses, therefore, sponsor Mr. I. Rennard and officers instituted the sale of magazine subscriptions and electric light bulbs. As yet results are not known. Lots of luck! Class of '50 When one thinks of his sophomore year, he thinks of school rings, for it is during tenth grade that he looks at numerous varieties and finally selects one for himself. Another highlight of the year, of course, is the Sophomore Hop, which occurred March 12, and which was fi- nanced by the sale of T shirts. Class of '51 Two red-letter days in the freshman calen- dar are those set aside for the Freshman Party, iWhat an array of food! What a lot of fun this year's wasli and the graduation in Iune. Classes of '52 and '53 True enough, during seventh and eighth grades there are no stellar events, but is not each day one of wonderment? There is so much to be seen and so much to do, each day is one big thrill. Right, little brothers and sisters? Mr. G. Knoll, sophomore sponsor, is busy as usual in the gym office.

This period has seen extra- curricular activities galore provided for the enrichment of G-N students, among them typing, handicraft, eti- quette, editorial, banking, gym, travel, and nature clubs as well as those now in existence. Congratulations are to be extend- ed to the groups dating their history back to Glen-Nor's first years- The Chieftain, The Student Council, and the Athletic Association, the first two of which operated first as the Senior Record and The Democracy Organi- zation.

DIUIIIE, ETERIIIIL The Senior Class of Glen-Nor High School presents Tiger House-a mystery comedy in three acts. After 8 weeks of extensive preparation, the above notice was placed in many stores in Glenolden and Norwood. Finally, on December 5 and 6 the Glen-Nor performance of Tiger House was presented. Much of the success of the play came about after school hours in the auditorium where, amid shouts of Project your voice and Never get out of character',, Mr. Bernard Siegel, the director, led the cast through many practices. The climax, two successful performances, was well Worth the effort. -,....,, if 4. 'Q' CAST Erma Lowrie ,. , .,.. .. .., R, Starke Yami, a Hindu . .,, .. . ..., D. Iohnson Aunt Sophie ...... M.

THE FDURTH During Glen-Nor's history, journalism has played a particularly large part, whether in the form of yearbooks, newspapers, or magazines. Happily, too, its endeavors have not been with- out reward, for records indicate that many All- American, medalist, and first class ratings have been received from the various press associa- tions, especially by yearbooks under the direc- tion of Miss Ernestine Robinson, former faculty member and prominent presswoman. In 1925 the first annual was published un- der the title Senior Record. Now, twenty-two years later another annual is published, this time under the official name of The Chieftain and sponsored by Miss I. Creagmile. This issue is a particularly important one for it commem- orates the twenty-fifth anniversary of the school's founding. In connection with the theme, much infor- mation, and many pictures were needed. Through the courtesy of the Chester Times, the Delaware County Historical Society, Sharpe and Dohme, Inc., and many residents of Nor- wood and Glenolden, numerous photos and data were gathered. Then began the job of PUBLICITY CLUB Seated: Britt, Diedel, Englehart, Lacox, Thompson. Stand- ing: Eisenbrey, Miller, Schwering, and King. New Mem- bers: Coggin, Reese. 14 r ESTHTE arranging the pages, writing the copy, and in- formally snapping students in action. At last, come Ianuary 20, the staff breathed a big Whew! , glad that the book was on its way to the publisher and fervently hoping that it might bring another medalist award as last year's book did, as well as prove a cherished rnemento of Glen-Nor's progress over the past quarter-century. ' This year, too, another staff was at work- the writers for the newspaper which, having been disbanded during the war years because of the lack of paper stock, now saw revival un- der Mr. R. Wert. Though the going has been rather rough, G-N's traditional allegiance to' quill and scroll will see it to the top of the hill once more, if not this year, surely next. A third phase of writing for the press is seen in the service of the Publicity Club. Made up of junior high students principally, it sees to it that the local newspaper is kept up-to-date on G-N happenings, which are published weekly in a special column. Sponsor of the organization is Miss I. Lentz. NEWSPAPER STAFF Standing: Mr. Wert tSponsorJ, Cornelius, Baker, Shin- dlebeck, Hagerman, Bossinger, Burke, Ritchie. Seated: Peterson, B.

Bamberger, had equipment lim- ited to one silent movie projector. Today visual education plays a big part in our school. Under the direction ol Mr. Edgar E. Richards, the committee is obtaining various types of education- al movies, slides, and other material for projection. Sound equipment operation is an- other duty of the Vis-Ed. Friday and Saturday night dances, pep rallies, and assemblies-all feature the committee's recordings. Finally, on Field Day the events are announced by-you guessed it - Glen-Nor's V i s u a l Educational Group.

II TRUST FUR THE BEIIEFIT 0F Illl Proving too unwieldly an organi- zation in previous years, the Student Council, in existence since the school's beginning, decided this year to limit itself to two members from each senior high homeroom and one from each jun- ior high homeroom. ln an effort to strengthen itself, the organization assumed several new re- sponsibilities--sponsorship of the re- vived school newspaper, complete charge of the school iuke box, partici- pation in the Philadelphia Suburban Conference Council meetings at local schools, and an appearance on a sport show broadcast over WIBG. Other ac- tivities comprised the conducting of a 5-in-l Charity Drive, the sponsoring of a Friday night dance, and the control- ling of hall traffic by means of monitors. In charge of the Student Council were Miss M. Iones and Mr. I. S. Landis, sponsors: P. Dinmore, president: M. Spencer, vice-president: P. Thompson, secretary: M. Sipple, corresponding secretary: I. Crawford, treasurer: and H. Canon, sergeant-at-arms. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Standing: Dinmore fPresidentl, Maling frepresentative from l2th gradel.

Jfonolt ...DOERS,lEllIll1 1 Comprised of those students who have ex- celled in scholarship, leadership, character, and service, the Senior gnd Iunior National Honor Societies have proved active organiza- tions this year. As a new part of their work, they have taken over the leadership of the as- sembly programs. Each week, students of their number have served as chairmen and leaders of the devotional exercises. They also have un- dertaken a portion ot the monitorial duties dur- ing noon hour. Other events included two teas held in the spring for the parents of newly in- ducted students and a combined picnic for all members at the end of the year. Sponsor of the groups is Miss Ruth Hassler. Officers of the senior organization in- cluded: Iames Martin, president: Harry Oakes, vice-president: and Marguerite Spencer, treas- urer. Officers of the junior organization in- cluded: Patsy Borton, president: Anna Mae Miekley, vice-president: and Carol Dyson, sec- retary-treasurer. Be it known that the Executive Coun- cil by authority in it vested grants unto the Glen-Nor High School of Glenolden, Penn- sylvania, full authority to establish and perpetuate a chapter of the Quill and Scroll of the aforesaid high school. To these august words, Edward Nell, then secretary and treasurer of the organi- zation, signed his name on April 18, 1933. Thus began the Glen-Nor chapter of the na- tional honorary society for student journal- ists. To become a member of the society, a student must stand high scholastically, be approved for membership by the society's national officers, and have done distinctive work on the Chieftain staff. Over the period of fifteen years, so many students of G-N have won this honor that it is impossible to name here any but the new electees. Included in this group are Iune Bishop, editor-in-chief, George Maling, assistant editor-in-chief, Marian Sipple, business manager: Helen Bewley, typing manager, Carl Banks and Bill Cor- nelius, photographers.

Y-TEENS Y-Teens, or Girl Reserves as it was called from its inception in 1926 up to last year, is dedicated to fun and service, and, by gollyf they achieved both this year. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. G. Hutchins and Mrs. V. Bryan, the girls took over the pre- sentation of the Christmas program before the student body and the P.T.A. Feature of the ob- servance was a one-act play, Why the Chimes Rang. Another example of service rendered in- cluded the Iunior Red Cross Work. For fun, they held initiation in the tall, and to climax the year, the Mother-Daughter Ban- quet. LIBRARY CLUB This club ot junior high students was or- ganized lor the first time last year by Miss K. Iennings. Members of it help to repair books and magazines, to arrange the shelves, to charge out books, and to decorate bulletin boards. MATH TEAM Every year six seniors, under the direction of Mrs. G. Hutchins, take intensified math train- ing in order to prepare for College Board tests. and such, including a competive examination at Temple University for local schools. While G-N doesn't always place in top position, the preparations are well worth time spent.

This year we find an even bigger and better choir. 'I'he girls and boys of this group can be heard filling the auditorium with melodies every Friday afternoon. Miss Biester's work has gone far in spreading music appreci- ation in the school. RADIO CLUB This year at Glen-Nor Mr. Iacob Rennard and a group of boys from his physics class started a radio club. They met during sixth periods on Monday and Friday when they studied re- ceivers and oscillators, the general principles of radio and the internation- ' ' al code in hopes of someday getting 4 Q amateur licenses.

THEIR BUSIIIESS What's Glen-Nor's outstanding extra-cur- ricular activity? You guessed it-athletics. And, as it should be, Glen-Nor emphasizes how the game is played, not whether it is won or lost. Supervising the whole athletics program is a small group of hard workers who, besides planning ticket campaigns and administering awards to our athletic heroes, take care of details such as receiving officials, arranging for transportation, caring for equipment, maintain- ing the field, and sponsoring an athletic ban- quet in the spring of each year. Most of this work is done behind the scenes. There is little glory, but much satisfaction in serving the school. Out in front are the senior high and junior high cheerleaders, wildly calling forth morale boosting cheers from hundreds of rooters. Their perfect timing and original antics are the re- sult of hours of early morning practice. So pop- ular is the activity, sponsored by Miss Rose- mary Stewart and captained by Lola Golds- borough and Dolores Larrimore, that there is always a huge turn-out of aspirants.

Betty Brandt placing the crown ol flowers upon May Queen ol '47, Eleanor Taylor. -mi 4' One of the traditional events of every Glen-Nor year is Field Day, held in spring,, when all students and teachers tum out to pay homage to the Queen of the May and the great god of sports. Feature of the day is the coronation of the May Queen-the senior girl voted most beau- tiful by the student body-amidst her retinue of ll attendants-the runners-up tor the title. Be- cause the annual went to press before the elec- tion this year, it is not known to whom the hon- or for '48 went. In 19471 the reigning beauty was petite Eleanor Taylor. Other outstanding events of the day in- clude, before tive faculty judges, a parade complete with floats, crepe paper, and antics by the Maroon and Gold teams. lavish demon- strations of showmanship on the part of each team, and various athletic competitions of all types. At the end of the day, the team with the most points is awarded a trophy. Last year saw the Maroon competitors in the favored place. Individual winners for each contest are given prizes of gold, silver, and bronze metals. A beautiful custom-may it never die out. S 1-fue. R. Keown, '47, champion pole vaulter. ' 'il org' . M . fr.

Having only four of last year's first string- ers, Coach Iohn Olson had to find new mater- ial. After many hard practices he came up with a fairly seasoned group of players to finish the year with four wins, four defeats and one tie, and to accumulate a total of 32 points. Deciding factor in two of the victorious tilts-against Eddystone and P. S. Dupont-was Iohn Forbes' field goal, while unlucky breaks in two of the defeats-the frays with Collingdale and Ridley Township-were injuries to two key Co-captains Lord and Forbes get a bit of practicing. players, Lute Brummitt and Rusty Schaffer. Iohn Forbes led the Maroon and Gold in scoring 20 points while Ernie Lord and Tom Barrar were tied with 6 points each. Co-captains of the varsity this year were Iohn Forbes and Ernie Lord. Unfortunately for G-N, with eight of his first team players graduating, Coach Olson will again be faced in '48 only with I. V. players and this year's reserves. One never knows, though, championship teams have been forged from just such metal. VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM Head Coach Olson. Row l: Barrar, Schaffer, McCauley, Gommer, Talley, Reeser, Schum.

The Indians started off the season rather well winning 3 out of 4 games fone of them at Chesteri, but ran up against some difficult foes in Haverford, Lansdowne, and Eddystone. After completing the regular season the Indians entered the Kiwanis Championship Tournament fheld annually for the benefit of the community's needy childrenl, only to lose to Swarthmore, 28 to 41 in the first game.

The factors responsible for this record were the pitching of lim Dyson and Iohn Gil- bert and the fielding and hitting of Gene De- Paul. Highlight of the season was the pitching by Iohn Gilbert of a no-hit, no-run game as well as one no-hit thriller in the games against Collingdale and Prospect Park. Iim Dyson also performed in an outstanding manner, having likewise pitched a no-hit game against Darby. Gene DePaul, star second baseman, led the team in hitting with an average of .428, and also led in runs batted in. With such a 1947 record as here revealed, great things were expected of the '48 team.
