Y? fllma mater Now here's to good old I-Iatboro High School: Our praise of her Will never lack. To her We pledge our best endeavors And rally round the Red and Black. With loyal hearts and firm conviction We'll cheer for her With might and main. Now here's to good old Hatboro High School Come let us echo the glad refrain. HY-HATTER urunumlul Men who live reverent lives are able to make beautiful music unforgettable. As students of Hatboro High School, we have come to know and love such a man. An unusual sense of humor and a Wonderful singing voice reveal the inner com- plaisance and tranquillity which direct the humble life of this man who unselfishly serves humanity as a teacher. We, the Graduating Class of 1945, are indeed grateful and honored to dedicate our yearbook, Hy Hatter, to a man who always will be held in our highest esteem, Mr. Russell E. Alden. HY-HATTER .I Having been a pianist and a member of the faculty of Hatboro High School, my brother, who passed away in May, 1942, was able to accompany Mr. Alden in many songs. In an assembly program, not long before his death, my brother accompanied Mr. Alden as he sang Ioyce Kilmer's Trees. The memory of that beautiful poem set to music inspired me to Write a poem in the same meter and dedicate it to Mr. Alden in memory of my brother, for I feel both these men have created memories just as pure and bright as God's sunsets. sunssrs . , I watched God's sun go down last night. I watched His clouds which once were white. lllumined by the sun's red rays. The sight so wonderful, I said a prayer And thanked my God that I was there. I raised my eyes and saw the clouds Enwreathed in pink and crimson shrouds, Their fleecy whiteness tinged with gold, Arranged by God to.take and hold His matchless colors there on high - To blend into the deep blue sky. I saw the sunset God has made From dainty hues of every shade. It seemed that He had made His sky A picture that no price could buy, A canvas where He might portray The peaceful ending of that day. The sun soon passed beneath a hill And left the earth serene and still. Then, as the 1:lay's remaining glow Began to .fade and slowly go, The purple clouds were turned blue-grey: And dusk divided night from day. And so at last, God's day was gone Until another amber davmp And then, before my wond'ring eyes, Amid the quiet evening skies, God .set His stars and there they kept Their ceaseless watch while mortals slept. It seemed that God had patterned there A way of life - my humble prayer: To live life like a sunny day: And when it's time to go away, ' Leave mem'ries just as pure and bright As sunsets like the one last night.

How fast the years have flown- Commevwement is in 'uiewgh Say, let's turn back the hands of ti-me, And m-emories 'l'6'U'l:6'ZU., 'Twas on a sunny day in September, l94l, that we, a group of gawking Freshies, stood on the threshold of a new high schoolcareer. It wasn't long, however. before all Lost Soul expressions were dispelled, and we let down our hair and dived into the thick of things. A cavalcade of new friends, parties, and a wonderful season of football followed. fThe Hatters won the Bux-Mont Championship that year with Bill Benner making gridiron history.l Of course there were lessons sandwiched in between. The academic section learned to decipher queer-looking hieroglyphics in a volume entitled I..atin, and the English classes became acquainted with Caesar which they proceeded to dramatize with gusto. Amid giggles and groans, the tragic death scene was very excellently presented - well, anyway, it WAS presented. Time marched on, and the Freshmen became full-fledged Sophomores. Our second year of high school proved to be just as profitable and successful as the first. Dick Beidler was elected class president - a responsible position which he held commendably for the next two years. We proudly sponsored our first social functions -- the Freshman Reception, skating parties, and our first big dance. the Sophomore Hop. Extra curricular activities played a big part in the school program. This season found numerous candidates 'for every sport, orchestra, and glee club. Our Iunior year began a new era - speeches! Oh, they were great fun! There were only nine out of ten who stood in the front of the room with knock- ing knees, beaded brows, and desperate looks. Scotty startled humanity with his new car fwe use the word looselyl and soon all the boys were sporting similar contraptions. Every morning from out of the west came the thundering beat of motors, a wail of horns, and a screech of brakes which announced their arrival. ' Dances held the social limelight. The prom was a particularly gala affair which left everyone concerned, starry-eyed for days. The Leap Year Dance, too, provided fun for all, with the girls taking the initiative and the victims. Several of the girls had a harrowing experience while decorating the gym for the Thanksgiving Dance. Someone removed a very vital ladder, and they found themselves trapped - where?? Then we were Seniors with not a care in the world except a few minor things such as studies! Expressions ran riot, and from 8:10 to 2:40, Ho-ho and lf he ever heard you I trilled through every hall and classroom. Football season was exciting, our play, a riot, and the Prom, thrilling.. The social sea- son was ecstatically glamorous. Then exams were over, and with a sigh of contentment at our brilliance, we realized that class day and commencement were near.

After a game. uphill battle the Hatters pushed across a fourth quarter tally to gain a well-deserved 6 to 6 tie. The following Saturday, October 7, however, Lady Luck did not smile when the team journeyed to Lansdale. The boys met a big and more experi- enced Lansdale eleven, eventually winding on the short side of a 32 to 6 count. On October 14 the team chalked up a hard-earned victory against a scrappy Quakertown outfit that fought until the final gun but to no avail, for the Quakers lost 13 to O. The trip to Souderton, October 23, alsd proved to be a profitable one, for the Hatters emerged, only after a fight, victorioius by an, 18 to 6 score. An outmanned Hatter eleven met the Ambler Trojans October 28, but lost out in the final quarter after three quarters of an up-and-down-the-field battle. Score: Ambler 13: Hatboro 6. Under the arc lights at Sell-Perk on November 3, the Hatters met an unex- pected defeat. After leading a good portion of the game and apparently having won the game, the Hatboro boys were astounded by a speedy Perkasie back who ran through the line and raced about twenty-five yards for a score. While the team and the fans were recovering from the shock, the Sell-Perkers calmly added the extra point which provided the margin of victory, 13 to 12. The next homecoming, November ll, was one of pleasant satisfaction. The Hatters entertained the undefeated Doylestown Seaters. Much to the chagrin of the Doylestownians, the Hatter eleven came out with a richly merited triumph. The game was one of thrills from start to finish. lt appeared as if the game would end in a deadlock, but the team's sparkling and stellar Captain, Ray Knipe. ended a last quarter rally with a six-yard off-tackle dash for a touchdown, the only one of the day. Score: 6-O. The team was full of new hope and spirit after their unexpected victory over Doylestown, but Springfield proved to be more than their match on No- vember l8. The Hatters suffered their worst defeat of the grid Campaign, 39 to O. The Hatboro and Upper Moreland teams were both mentally and phys- ically prepared for the traditional Turkey Day contest on November 23. How- ever, ole man weather gave the teams a sloppy, muddy gridiron which severely handicapped them from playing their best. At the half the Hatters led by a slim six points which looked none too safe. When the second half began, it was evident that Upper Moreland was an invigorated offensive team. They finally drove over for their lone tally, but missed the all important extra point. The game ended in a 6-6 deadlock, and the moderately successful sea- son came to a dramatic close.

This hilarious farce was successful in every respect. The setting is a summer camp run by Hank and Penny Evans, who have the co-operation of their loyal but not-too-bright counsellors, Bobby, Chick, Carrie, Rocky, Mike, and Charleyhorse. The first season of the camp is half over when Mrs. Hamilton Merryweather-mother of Hammy and Chubby, two campers, and social leader whom the parents of the other campers follow- arrives to remove her children. Because their going will ruin the camp, Hank, Penny, and the counsellors rnust find a way of preventing this. Mrs. Ureeland, an assistant director for Atlas Picture Company, arrives to look for a location to shoot camp scenes for a picture starring Baby Doris Lee. lf the camp is used, the publicity will insure its future success. But the threat of Mrs. Merryweather still hangs over the camp. The counsellors decide to kidnap and rescue Chubby to build up her mother's opinion of them. But the plans go wrong, and both Hammy and Chubby are missing. Mrs. Merryweather keeps fainting and finally imagines herself a little girl. To humor her the counsellors play child's games on the floor. Through some strange quirks of fate the children are found. The movie company selects the camp as the site for the picture, and Mrs. Merryweather goes home allowing the children to remain at the camp. 'HY-HATTER lLa4ily Slpittifiirea' Miss Prudence . . .

At present it is doubtful whether she will be able to keep the school open. The opening curtain finds Ginger and Cindy trying to persuade Flobelle Berthon to remain, but she is determined to leave. Tom Brown and Bud Iones come to the school looking for work. Miss Prudence finally decides to give them jobs when she receives a telegram announcing the arrival of Kay Sutton, a rich society girl. Meanwhile this same girl is trying to elope with a certain Henri Du Frayne, supposedly rich also. She is unable to reach him by train, so she attempts to take the boy's car, but runs it into a farmer's fence. Tom and Bud bring the struggling girl back to the school not realizing that she is the Kay Sutton. A telegram comes saying that Kay's father has taken her to Europe and she will not be able to come to the school. Knowing that they will lose their jobs and Won't be able to pay for the damage to the fence, the boys ask the Spitfire to impersonate Kay Sutton. She decides to follow this plan for the boys' sake. Everything seems to be going smoothly when Torn and Bud discover she is spending a lot of money by writing checks as the real Kay Sutton. Money is being spent left and right for a party Kay is giving at the school for the whole town. Henri Du Frayne, the man she was to marry, comes to the party to take Kay away. Bud recognizes him as the man who had swindled Torn out of 35,000 By the time Tom arrives on the scene, Kay and Henri have gone. Since his arrival Mr. Sutton has been talking with Miss Prudence. He knows now what Kay has done. When Tom brings Henri and Kay, Mr. Sutton pretends not to recognize his daughter. led Buell, the sheriff, finally arrests Du Frayne as a fraud. The stocks in which Tom has invested his money prove to be worth a great deal more than he paid for them, and Lady Spitfire proves to be the real Kay Sutton. She is very different from the girl who first came and she has decided to attend the school. HY-HATTER IUNIOR- SENIOR DINNER DANCE Due to the fact that several Seniors expected to leave for the service before May, the annual Iunior-Senior Dinner-Dance was held on Ianuary 30, 1945, at the Old York Road Country Club. The Weather was quite chilly, but the girls still looked radiant and the fellows outdid themselves in their Sunday-best. After Mrs. Norris had asked the blessing, everyone sat down to a delicious dinner. The menu for the evening consisted of fruit cup, olives and celery, mashed potatoes, peas, turkey and filling, rolls, and ice cream. Two beautiful cakes, in honor of those about to enter the service, were provided by the Iuniors. The excellent music of Simmers' Esquires kept everyone dancing until the very last minute. Evelyn Kaye's singing was irresistible, and when Billy Bell gave out with Makin' Whoopee, the majority of the people gathered 'round to listen. One o'clock finally arrived: the more adventuresome souls went to Philadelphia to a midnight show. Thus ended a pleasant evening which will linger long in the memories of those who attended. SENIOR VALENTINE DANCE On February 14, l945, the Senior Class sponsored its first dance of the year. The gym was appropriately decorated for the occasion with red and white hearts. Sinc they had made such a hit at the Prom, Simmers' Esquires were again hired to provide the music. Their playing was better than ever, and Evelyn Kaye's singing kept many starry-eyed all evening. By popular demand, Billy Bell repeated Makin' Whoopee and Her Tears Flowed Like Wine' in his own inimitable style. With the playing of Sweet Dreams, Sweetheart a gay evening was brought to a close all too soon. Most of the people carried oft the decorations as souvenirs on their way out.
