348 enior Cjfaafi Stazzdzng Simuel Bloom, Vice-Pres.g Miss Waldo Adviser oseph Bower, Pres. Sealed: Marie Davis 'lreas Barbara Cressman, Sec. All good things must come to an end. The time has come for us to apply this saying to Lansdale High School's Class of '47, As we look back over the past three years, we find cherished memories of scholastic and extra-curricular activities. ' It seems like yesterday that we entered Lansdale High School as sophomores. It didn't take us long to become one of the gang. Before we knew it, we Educated Sophs became a definite part of LHS. Our class was organized as follows: President, joe Bower, Vice-President, Samuel Bloom, Secretary, Barbara Cressmang Treasurer, Marie Davis, Adviser, Miss Maribelle Waldo. Miss Waldo-served in that capacity throughout our years in high school. After a glorious summer vacation, we again entered our beloved institution of learning as the Junior Class. That fall of 1945 we really felt at home. We immediately elected our class ofiicers: President, Samuel Bloom, Vice-President, Norman Nelson, Secretary, Barbara Cressman, Treasurer, Marie Davis. Throughout our Junior year we were well represented in sports and other activities. It was a memorable year, climaxed by that all important event in the life of a high schooler-the Junior-Senior Prom, held at the Old York Road Country Club. In the fall of '46 we returned to roam the halls of LHS, carrying with us the title of Dignified Seniors. lt seemed impossible that this would be our busiest, most eventful, and happiest year in high school. But it was a reality, and we knew it was our duty to make our senior year one to be remembered in the annals of LHS. We elected Joe Bower, President, Sam Bloom, Vice-President, Barbara Cressman, Secretary, Marie Davis, Treasurer. For the first time in LHS history, a girl was chosen to fill the position of Student Council president. That young lady was Peggy Scheid. It was also the year our school again began publication of a newspaper, the Huskie Barker. The orchestra and recording dances held on November 23 and March 1 respectively, were huge successes. With the coming of May came our long awaited trip to Washington. Vespers were on june 8, graduation on june 10, and our final function, the Senior Ball, on June 13. And so the story closes. Our years at Lansdale High School are ended. We are now prepared to take our respective places in the world, with the knowledge, understanding, and tolerance that we have gained from twelve years of school life. Eighteen
