ALMA MATER Tho’ we roam the wide world over, Tho’ from home afar we stray, We can ne'er forget our school days 'Neath the Garnet and Gray, For our classmates, teachers, lessons We will long with many a sigh And no matter where we wander We’ll remember Lansdowne High. We’ll be true to thee dear High School And our thoughts will ever stray To our school days spent at Lansdowne 'Neath the Garnet and Gray. Oft in joy and oft in sorrow, We will think of Lansdowne High, And we’ll grieve when we must leave thee, When 'tis time to say “Good-bye.” For we’ll never learn thy value 'Til from thee afar we stray, And for thee, dear Alma Mater, We will sing this song today. Cheer again for Lansdowne High School, Sing this song again today And we'll ne'er forget our school days, 'Neath the Garnet and Gray.

LAHIAN STAFF 'HIS year, the Lahian staff started out with the purpose of beginning work early and keeping it up. This plan was carried out to the letter by dint of much will power and as a result, the book was really printed on time and without any hectic confusion at the last minute. Although the staff comprised an unusually large number of members, it was soon discovered that each one was needed. Edith Patton was the editor who was rarely seen without the big gray box of write-ups under her arm or rarely heard without the battle cry on her lips, “Have it in by tomorrow!” Lois Schill, Sylvia Way, Katherine Holden, Dorothy Farrell, Sarah French, Ruth Stubbs, Margaret Cooper, and Betty Wilson were the assistants who wrote up practically anything that came their way. Nancy Groswith and “Shorty” Scarborough were the athletic editors. Matthew Mason and Ed MacMichael were sport editors, but Ed, in addition to sports, wrote up anything else he was asked to do. In fact, half of this Lahian was written by Ed alone. Betty Stuart and William Bradley handled the photograph and engraving end with Blanche Robson, the Junior member, who also wrote up all Junior material, as assistant. Ted Fetter, Kim Hicks, and Mary Stevenson, assisted by the Junior members, John Solenberger, John Ogden, and Dave Jones, managed the advertising and business ends quite capably. Eloise Garton and Betty Miller wrote up Sophomore and Freshman news. Estelle Abrahams and Janette Larned, assisted by Katherine Irey, Eleanor Lowe, and Sue Hicks, under Miss Davis’ direction, did all the art work and all the designing on these pages was done by them. Last, but not least, the typists—Erna Beckman, Anna Weiss, Elizabeth Moore, and Wendell Cochran deserve a great deal of praise for their willingness and faithfulness in typing all the material for the Lahian. However, this staff could not have functioned without its advisors. Mr. Epley, who directed the 1930 Lahian, kept all departments functioning and was relentless about the money affairs and engraving work and Miss McCullough was invaluable on the literary end.
