CLASS OFFICERS Paul Fitzgerald lvice-presidenti, Bob Holmes lpresidentl Mary Tribou lsecreturyl, Ruth McFeefer ltreasurerl head of Cheerleaders, Ruth as captain of the victorious hockey team, Evelyn and Fitz as blue team leaders, and Carlile and Tribou as red team leaders. Money began to be a serious problem, and we clutched at every straw to swell our treasury. At the football games we sold programs and after the games we gave dances. A big item entered on the books was the receipts from the dramatic success, The Littlest Brides- maid which broke all records and packed the house both nights. To Bill Carlile, business manager, goes much of the credit. Again we triumphed with the Senior Rrom, continuing to MAKE money-imagine! Fleming, Poley, and Carlile were ini- tiated into the Phi Sigma Chi Fraternity, Our senior boys were attending Drill every Wednesday night-such discipline as they learned! fDid Eby say something, or was it Andreacola?ll!l Thompson made a name for himself in the library- King Gregory of the Round Table and don't ask why-pleasel About this time peculiar noises were heard during English class and poor Miss Wright wondered if she had kinder- garlteners now. Remember E-l-lAW-Al-ll and the sound of a cork? ln January the juniors gave us a party and it was said to be the best ever given at Jenkintown- even better than the one we gave-can it bel ln February Mr. Martz and Mr. Pauff left, and Louis Armon entered the Army Air Corps. On the twelfth of February we did it again, broke J. l-l. S. records by giving a Turnabout Dance. The girls got the man of their dreams and the seniors got S30 . . . not badl The first week in March, after' a thorough canvassing of the town, we gave a movie benefit at the Fliway Theater. The boys finished their basketball season by winning the Bux-Mont League. l-lowever, they lost the first game in the state playoffs to Radnor, 40-39, after a thrilling battle. The team had five seniors: Owen Reagan, Whitey Fitzgerald, Jack Fleming, Bob l-lolmes and Paul Cutright tCapt.J. Whitey and Paul were elected to the All Bux-Mont teams The vocalists of the class demonstrated their ability in Creatures of Impulse, a superb operatic performance. Nancy Crosson, Millie Fritsch, Bob l-lolmes, Evie Carnahan, Mary Pullar, Mary Lou Eisentrager, and Nancy l-lunter had leading roles. Came spring . . . ahl . . . and with it track and baseball began. ln April the Mothers gave a card party for us, and in May we com- peted in the annual color day contest. Darkly overshadowed as the world is by the clouds of war, an uncertain future looms ahead. Although our ranks are small . . . 53 in number . . . rest assured that the world will know, and have reason to appreciate the achievements of the class Of 44. Nine
