CARLTON ABBOTT You share our sorrows, joys, and all our fears. You comfort us when sometimes we feel blue. Your faith in us has kept back many tears; What would we do without true friends like you?

LONG Black hair and brown eyes characterizes our class secretary, the quiet, capable, friendly Aleene. Her charming personality and very attractiveness make her a prominent figure among us. She has often aroused our curiousity about her, but her reserved and silent manner have offered us no satisfaction. Class Secretary 14). Invitation Committee (2, 3). HARRY CHARLES NUESSLE Lansdowneâs original do-it-now man! Harry is always in a hurry but is nevertheless efficient and businesslike, aggressive, frank, and intelligent. He is a forceful debater, an accurate math-matician, a fluent linguist, and an active Class Treasurer and committee member. And can he plav a mean fiddle! Class Treasurer 14). Orchestra 11, 2, 3, 4).

His secret passion is Miss Cookâs Latin; Donnieâs the spice of the class of ââ34â. Basketball (1, 3, 4). Student Council (1). Math Gub (4). Monitor (3). JANE ELIZABETH ANDREWS One of the members of that famous duet. âBertram and Andrewsâ. âAndyâ is noted for her âpeppyâ disposition. She handles her Ford very well, and possesses excellent skill in sewing. Why does she like the song âJimmy Had a Nickelâ? Could it be the name? Class Basketball (2). Golf (3). Assistant Librarian 2 . Dance Committees (2, 3.). ANITA MARIE BAER Who is that giggling in the halls? Without any trouble we pick out Anita. She is a great sport, a good friend, and to add to her fame, she is a commuter .... from Springfield. Dance Committees (2. 3). FRED BARFOD Yes, Fred has been a âladiesâ manâ as far back as we can remember. In spite of this, he has always been a âshining lightâ in his studies, and has never flunked a subject. Fredâs weakness was writing notes, until a âflameâ entered his life. Basketball (1, 2, 3 . Baseball 2, 3, 4 . Surveying Club (3t. Dramatics (4). HERBERT GARBER BENKERT Herb was unequalled as a guard on the football team two years ago and this year turned his brawny muscles to the noble art of scene shifting. Always jolly and joking, there is always a twinkle in his eye, even behind those blinders. Football (2, 3, 4). Track (2, 3, 4 . Aviation Club (2). Stage Crew (4i. ELINORE M. ANDREAS One of the most versatile and efficient of our âstenogsâ. This little girl can type faster than she can talk; in fact, she can do almost anything equally well, even to acting in our plays. Her weakness is red finger-nail polish, and how Mr. Christ does love it! Garnet and Gray (4). Dramatics (2, 3, 4). National Honor Society (4). HENRY MONYHAN APPLEGATE. Jr, âJimâ is one of those strong and silent (?) men. He is a man of three hobbies: football, sleep, and a certain black-eyed senior. Oh, and another weakness! Who ever saw Jim hurry? No, we thought not; haste doesnât seem to agree with him. Football (2, 3. 4). Basketball (2). Class Basketball (1, 3, 4). Track (3, 4). Dance Committees (1. 2. 4). MARY AUBREY BANKER Why can Audrey win the jump as center in basketball? Why do her drives in tennis spin across the net and refuse to be returned? Why is she one of the best rooters at games? Because she is tallâand uses her tallness. Basketball (3, 4). Tennis (3, 4). Junior-Freshman Partv (3). Orchestra (1, 2, 3, 4). ROBERT LAUER BARTLESON Bobâs interesting character has played an important part in our class history. His musical ability has furnished us much entertainment. As for the girls. Bobâs novel of romance has so many chapters, we wonder .... will it ever end? Baseball (2, 3, 4). Manager (4). Track (1. 2). Soccer (3. 4). Band (1, 2. 3, 4). Surveying Club (3). Dance Committee (4). Math Club (3, 4). Monitor (3, 4). CLARA ELLEN BENTON Clara is one of the peppiest girls of our class. Thatâs the reason she ha9 so many friends of both sexes. How that smile and those eyes can draw the males! Claraâs affections, so we have heard, have been won by a gentleman from Delaware. Basketball (1). Chorus (1. 2, 3). Dance Committee (3). 16 MARGUERITE HELEN BERTRAM Margie is one of the pleasantest girls in our class, an excellent student, a good dancer, and one of the most efficient typists the Lahian has ever had. She deserves a medal for typing all the write-ups for the year book. Golf (3). Garnet and Gray (4). Lahian (4). Chorus (1, 2. 3). Assistant Librarian (2). Dance Committees (1. 3). KENNETH PRICE BLACKBURN Meet Pud, heâs only a little fellow, hut .... Everyone knows him for his famous imitations. Pud is also a star athlete, one of the mainstays of our victorious (if we hadnât been gypped) senior basketball team. He is a good fellow anti donât forget. Pud, âGreat oaks . . . .ââ. Basketball (2). Class Basketball (1. 2. 3. 4). Band (1, 2). WALTER S. BOBB Walter is one of our silent, stern young men. Some people are inclined to think that he is very reserved, hut that is just until they know him. When we see Walter, there is always a fair maiden by his side: this the characteristic of his âcrowdâ. Chess Club (2). Math Club (4). Band (1. 2, 3, 4). JOHN C. BRITTON Hereâs a young man who boasts great skill in three professions: auctioneering, salesmanship, and unfathomable magic. Though it may not be magic, he certainly knows the formula of love. Weâre glad to find such a prominent figure in our class history. Vice-President of class (1). Garnet and Gray (3). Dramatics 2. 4). Chairman of Junior Prom (3). MARION LAURA Bl RDSALL Our star athlete, no one can rival âMarâ when it comes to girlsâ sports! As its captain and center forward, she was the mainstay of the hockey team. As for basketball, first she was half of the âMil-Marâ forward combination, then she stood alone as our tip-top forward. Hockey (2. 3, 4). Basketball (1. 2, 3, 4l. Volley Ball (2, 3). JOHN LONGCOPE BIRKINBINE Meet the school-league-famous ar-guer. The debating team couldnât have gotten along without Birkâs (pronounced Burkeâs' rebuttals, and the seniors couldnât have gotten along without the relief of his occasional tearing down of teachersâ points in class. Basketball (4). Tennis 4). Stamp Club (3, 4). Math Club (4). Chess Club (4). Sophomore Hop Committee (2). Debating (3, 4). Monitor (4). NINA BITLER A new addition to our class is Nina, who hails from the warmer climes. Although sheâs been with us only a year, the girls -and the boysâhave found the charm in her soft drawl. A sight familiar to all Lansdowne students is Nina in her tan terraplane. Senior Dance (4). BERNICE C. BRISBANE Have you met Bernice? If you havenât, you have missed making a very good friend. Although she is very quiet and retiring, she is one of the most generous and thoughtful girls in our class. Donât miss her! DOROTHY ELIZABETH BROWN Pretty, popular, ami versatile. Dot is known and liked by all. She is equally capable as manager of the tennis team or member of the Lahian staff. You have probably seen her chasing after someone for her money for a hockey picture. Class Basketball (2). Tennis (3, 4). Manager (4). Laiiian 1. 2. 3. 4). Garnet and Gray 4 . HAZEL CANNON Hazel is always known by her smart clothes and lovely, wavy, blonde hair. She is well liked by all her classmates because of her cheery disposition. There is a certain Bud who seems to like that disposition pretty well, too. How about him. Hazel? Student Council 1). Assistant Librarian (3). Dance Committee (4). FRANCES S. CARNEY A jolly miss is our âFranâ. We wonder whether she ever has cares or troubles. In the halls, on the street, or even in the classroom you are likely to see her wandering aimlessly or skipping gaily around. We sometimes wonder whether this is partly due to not moaning and groaning about lessons. MARY K. COLLINS One of our newest members is Mary, round-faced and smiling, with a pair of lovely blue eyes. Her willing nature and fun-loving spirits have easily won her a permanent place among us. As for her hockey ability, we couldnât have done without it. Hockey (4). WOODROW' W. COOPER The heartâs desire of every teacher is Woodrow because he is a brilliant student and can be relied upon. He gives good advice to the wee little freshmen and the big seniors. He is very quiet and never says a word unless some one else starts, and then he makes up for lost time. WILLIAM CUMMINGS Each morning bright and early âCâumaâ hails forth from East La ns-downe. It is rumored that he meets a certain hlue-eved âfilleâ with whom he walks the halls, and he always seems to âtrip it on a light fantastic toeâ at all the social gatherings. Football (1. 2. 3. 4). Basketball (1. 2 , Class Basketball (3, 4). Baseball (2, 3, 4). Track (1, 2). Math Club (3). Band (1. 3). CHARLES WALTER DENNY Denny has a large supply of confidential friendsâboth masculine and feminineâto whom he tells his woes. Why do they like him? Well, a sense of humor, long eyelashes, wrestling and soccer ability, mixed with personality, make a good combination. Soccer (3. 4 . Track (3, 4. W'resiling f4 . Band (1. 2, 3. 4). KENNETH CARROLL CLOUKY Have you heard of that boy with the superfluous vocabulary? Well, that is Kenneth. But this is not his only qualification. He has made a hit in dramatics. And what would we do without his outstanding ability on the stage crew? Lahian (3, 4). Chess Club (1, 2. 3, 4). Dramatics (2, 3. 4). Math Club 3. 4). Debating (4). Stage Crew (1, 2, 3, 4). Monitor (3, 4). Dance Committees (1, 3). National Honor Society (3, 4). MARY ANNA CONWAY Mary, one of the classâs best dancers, is always on the go. If you ever want to know where to find her, just look for her inseperablc pal, âGossicâ. Weâre sure youâll discover them together. Did we hear you say. Mary, that his name is Bill? GEORGE W. CORNOG Of course youâve seen that tall, handsome boy bending over a curly brown head. His name is George; incidentally, the curly brown head belongs to none other than a miss named Jane. George is the great lover and a great trombone player. Alas! if there were only others like him. EDWARD DARLINGTON, Jr. One can easily recognize Eddie by his auburn hair. Although he is usually quiet, he makes up for this by strenuously tooting his saxophone. Yes, Eddie is one of the mainstays of the band. One of his greatest enjoyments, in the line of school work, is Physics. Band (2. 3, 4t. Surveying Club (3, 4). Tumbling Team (2). HOWARD COOPER DESHONG âWouldnât you like to put an ad. in the Garnet and Gray?â We know that âDukeâ is after us again, for he is business manager of the Garnet and Gray and advertising manager of the Lahian. He manages everything very well. Track (1, 2). Garnet and Gray (4). Lahian (4). Math Club (3, 4 . Chess Club 4 . Dance Committee (1.3). 18 NORMA MABEL DICKERSON Normaâs unpretentiousness wins friends for her everywhere. Although she seems very shy and reserved at school, we are told that she is loads of fun to he with outside. And one of last yearâs seniors seems to think so, too. MARGARET ALBERTA DORLAND Margy, who holds so much influence in our class, is one of those quiet brunettes. Almost everyone knows that she hails from the âBig Cityââ (Morton . Sheâll make some handsome employer a swell secretary because sheâs one of our best commercial it ies. We hope heâs a nice boss, too. Garnet and Gray (2, 31. DORIS ANNABLE DRAKE Hereâs our Prima Donna. Of course, sheâs a feminine RubinofT, too. Doris, we hope youâll get there with your dreams of a musical career, hut if you donât, we know that youâll he on the top somewhere. Garnet and Gray (4). Lahias (4). National Honor Society (3, 4). Orchestra (1, 2, 3. 4). Chorus (1, 2. 3. 4). Stamp Club (3, 4). Dance Committee (1, 3). FRED L. EICHOLTZ Fred knows what he is about when it comes to Math or Physics, and the thing we like is that he isnât stingy about his information, and is perfectly willing to help a friend out. He is one of the few people gifted with the art of âtaking people for a rideââ with a perfectly straight face. EMILY VIVIAN ERICKSON Irrepressible! Thatâs the word. Teachers or no teachers, Vivian is sure to he bubbling over with giggles. Ever try to find her in the halls? Just stand still, and sooner or later (probably sooner) sheâll appear. She is vivacity personified. Art Committee for Junior Freshman Party (3). AUDREY ELLEN DICKSON Need a friend? Hereâs one, and a good one, too. Though she doesnât say much, we know that Audrey is always there with her friendly smile and endearing ways. Sheâs a standby in the Commercial departmentâalways ready to depress the keyboard, if need comes. Garnet and Gray (4). National Honor Society (4). WALTER GILBERT DOWNWARD, Jh. Walter aspires to be an opera singer. His success we do not question, for weâve heard him sing. He is interested in boats, and is art editor of the Lahian. Such versatile interests can only have one result. Walter will be our first singing yachtsman. Lahian Art Editor (4). Dramatics (2, 4). Chorus (1, 2, 4). Math Club (3, 4L Dance Committee (2, 3, 4). WILLIAM G. DUKEK, Jk. Versatile Bill! As an actor, debater, scholar, he is proficient. His extraordinary writing ability has won for him the position of âanchor man on the Garnet and Gray anil Lahian. We admire you. Bill, for you do many things and do all of them well. Garnet and Gray (4). Lahian (4). Math Club (3, 4). Dramatics (2, 3 . Debating (4). Dance Committee (3, 4 . Senior Play. National Honor Society (4). ARTHUR B. ERDMAN It never failsâthat is, hardly ever. Seniors rush madly over to the Biology room for candyâandâker-bumpâthere is Arthur! We think he ought to open a candy store of his own, so proficient a helper of Mr. Epley is he. Lahian (4). JEAN ANNE EVANS Looking for some one with personality? Jean Anne has all you want. We donât mean the noisy kind, for âJanââ is not noisy. Sheâs the kind of friend who can wear for ages. Her chief weaknesses are: hockey, tennis, and writing. Hockey (4). Tennis (3.4). Lahian (3, 4). Garnet and Gray (4). Hi-Y (3. 4). Junior Prom (3). National Honor Society (4). 19 SAMUEL P. FELIX. Jr. âDutchâ has completeley won over everyone who knows him by his friendly actions and nice smile.

Although he joined us early in the senior year, he has already made a name for himself as a wrestler and a good sport. Heâs a typical example of a little man making good in a great big way. Wrestling (4). MARYJANE BERNADINE GEGAN If you want to find Mary just page Lily Lohr. Who is that faithful girl friend, Mary, that can be found waiting outside of room 21. waiting to discuss topics of Upper Darby High? Maybe âFootballâ. Junior Prom Committee (3). JOSEPH LIYTNGTONE GERRY Everyone knows Lansdowncâs little star track meteor. When he isnât out burning up the oval, heâs sitting in English class trying to demonstrate the futility of poetry to Miss McCullough. And of course weâll all remember his star reporting on the G. and G. Track (3. 4 . Soccer (4). Carnet and Cray (4). Math Club (3, 4).

Football 1, 2). Soccer f3, 4). Track (1, 2, 3, 4). Dramatics (2, 3, 4). Orchestra (1, 2). ELIZABETH FOSTER Personality plus. Betts is either that lovely, peppy, vivacious person we see tearing around in her renowned flivver, âPassionâ, or that tall, poised, lovely owner of those âdancing feetâ. She possesses long, curly eyelashes, anti has a âyenâ for college men. Hockey 2, 3). Basketball (2. 3). Student Council (1). Ili Y (4 . Senior Dance Committee (4). Junior Prom Committee (3).

We can always depend on Esther to make a name for herself in athletics. Hockey (3. 4). Basketball (2. 3. 4). Dance Committee (3). EDGAR THOMAS GIBSON Hereâs another one of Lansdowneâs little men. âEggsâ is the skillful navigator of one of the first class ships forming the âFordâ navy that anchors around the school every day. Incidentally he fills in his spare time as a mainstay of the soccer team. Surveying Club (4). Track f3. 4). Soccer (3, 4 . Dance Committee (3). Monitor (3, 4). HELEN ST. CLAIR GILLOCK Here is another singer who has high aspirations, and she may well have them. too. for she is a prominent member of all the choruses. Wc also hear that she rides horseback in Virginia, or one of the Southern Statesâ??? Laiiian (4). Chorus (3, 4). 20 HERBERT S. GLASBY, Jr. When you want rhythm, see Glasby. This young man can certainly put a sail into a clarinet and proceed to make it talk. His comrade-in-arms, Ken Walker, and he are always to be seen together concocting some more melody to sooth the souls of study room âstudesâ. Band (2.3,4). Orchestra (4). Math Club (3, 4). HAROLD BURST GREEN Harold is a familiar figure on the football field. How nobly he held those yard-markers! He is the editor of numerous publications, including the Math newspaper. He is recogniziblc either by that quizzical eyebrow or the swanky brown overcoat. Track Manager (4 . Math Club (3, 4 . Editor A. G. T. Review (3). Cheerleader (2, 3. 4 . Monitor (4 . Dance Committees (2, 3). MARGARET SUSAN HAMILTON Though she may seem quiet at school you really should be with her out of school some time. She is always willing to lend one whatever one needs. Moreover, she has a really famous giggle. Class Basketball (1, 2). Junior Prom Committee (3). C. JACK HANSEN Behold the musical master mind! Some day we expect to hear Jack on the âWhite Owlâ program in place of Guy. His marks are as excellent as his music. We often wonder how he finds time to entertain a certain blonde senior.

CATHARINE GEORGIANNA HASLETT Kitty is not a stranger to any of us because sheâs been with us practically all of our school life. Sheâs a pal as kind and as enthusiastic as she is tall. Sheâs fond of basketball, and weâve yet to see any guard keep her from making a good pass or basket! Basketball (2). EDYTHE H. GOSS Happy-go-lucky âGossieâ is one of the popular girls in our class. No one need tell us she is a good dancer. The football season is well past, but we still wonder whose sweater that was she wore with the big âMâ on it. Wonât you tell us, âGossieâ? Garnet and Gray (3). CHARLES J. HALLOWELL A fine disposition, an excellent dancer, a boy admired by everyone, sums up Charles. He is one of the few boys who gets his homework doneâand on time! We wonder if itâs his eyes which attract the girlsâor maybe the dimples. Student Council (4). Math Club (3, 4). Surveying Club (3, 4). FRANK J. HAMPEL Zoom. Zoom, Zoom! Thatâs Frank on the big bass viol. The school orchestra profits by his assistance. He possesses feet that wonât keep still when there is music around, hair that wonât stay in place, and dark brown eyes. Rather a nice combination! Tennis (3, 4). Track (2). Soccer (3, 4 . Monitor (3). Orchestra (2. 3, 4 . Dance Committee (2. 3, 4). THOMAS BOLTON HARRISON. Jr. Tom, the debonair sportsman! Heâs a wrestler of no mean ability on mat and trumpet: he also thrives on work.

It is with a deep note of sadness and regret that the senior class marks the passing of two of our most popular and engaging comrades. Scarcely two years ago. life closed its doors on Oscar Eklof and Russell Denton, two of the most honest and real boys that ever lived. Oscar loved life. How proud he was as he led the band as drum major, dressed in that shining scarlet uniform. How he loved that noble dog. the mascot of the football team! He was afraid of nothing; lessons and schoolwork held no terrors for him. His honest efforts, his frank ami winning personality, his generous and unselfish nature won a place for him in the hearts of his comrades that time has not dimmed. Just at the height of his sophomore career, Jte had a brief illness; then all was over an empty place left at his desk and in our hearts. Russell, his classmate, was in the same home room. Remember how he used to dash into the room a few seconds before the late hell rang, still with his coat and hat on? You surely recall that familiar old gray felt hat. that he always wore. Besides that, he always seemed to be getting in some scrape. How often he used to be scolded for this or that, but we liked him. He was a real fellow. Typically an American boy. he loved the outdoors and sports, particularly divine and swimming. Strangely enough, it was while participating in his favorite sport that Russell met his death. The road of life lies ahead of us, their classmates, filled with bills and valleys, darkness and light. These two. the highest type of American voulh, were the first of our number to fall, achieving their fame not with us in bodv, but in snirit. euiding our footsteps toward that dow of dawn that ham's over the hill far ahead. To justify their character, their humility, their beauty, we must follow the road unfalteringly. They are the light behind the hill. 32 CLASS PROPHECY A SAGA OF THE SEA William G. Dukek WAVES broke high over the forward deck as the U. S. S. Lansdowne, bound for Japan, cut a wide swath through the foam. The morning sun glistened in the crystal spray of brine tossed up by the towering steel monster. Only the endless roar of the water, the throb of the engines, and the faint trail of blue smoke left by the ship disturbed the quiet, azure beauty of the indeterminable ocean vastness. By the forward railing, Connie McGargee, Cam McPhail, and Clark Rice stood chatting gaily, their laughter ringing in the morning breeze. âI say, Rice,â said McPhail, a little perturbed, âRosalie Rudley wants to see you.â âWhere?â, asked Clark eagerly. âThere,â said Cam quietly as he shoved him over the side, chuckling inwardly. On a lower deck, Boh Jessup, the ship's officer, dressed in natty blue, stood talking to Kay King and Betty Miller. Bundled in a deck chair and smoking a fragrant pipe, John Hansen, a travelling miser, dozed. The flashing shadow of the falling man woke him and he observed miserably to his travelling companion, a Miss McKenna, âHey, Emily, something fell.â âI guess, Williames, the boâsun is throwing things around again,â said Lt. Jessup, hut bending over the rail, he shouted, âMan overboard! Full speed ahead!!â Several minutes later, someone threw a life preserver to the struggling figure and hauled him dripping to the deck. Clenched firmly between his teeth, however, was a bottle, at which the miser observed, âUp to your old tricks, eh, Clark?â First Mate Joe Gerry took him to the captain, where by dint of a little dynamite and a few dirty looks, he withdrew the bottle. âSend him to Miss Martin, the dentist, and get those twelve teeth fixed,â said the captain, âGosh, let me see that bottle.â No sooner had the captain uncorked it lovingly than a tightly rolled paper fell out. He hastily read it with a startled countenance. In the speaking tube he shouted. âChange our course to SSE by S. immediately!â âItâs never too late. Perhaps we can yet rescue them. And anyway . . . â he muttered, as he chuckled and reread the following letter: To the Finder: I am enclosing several excerpts from the log of the good ship S. S. Anna Grace in which several of my friends (including Miss Anna Grace Wilson who christened our yacht), a clever chemist and holder of a dozen degrees (and still a spinster), Mrs. Elizabeth Preston, nee eyman, wife of General F. O. Preston. U. S. Army (retired, and Mr. John L. Birkinbine, expert on tropical fish and other little rebuttals), and myself made a world cruise a short time ago. Blown out of our course on the Pacific, a terrific storm wrecked us on a strange island, inhabited almost entirely by women, probably original Amazons. The boat was wrecked and all our instruments lost. Everyone was saved, but we still donât know where we are. If the finder will communicate with the U. S. Government, the Navy will send a rescue party to search for us, especially if you tell them that Miss Neyman is aboard. We are getting homesick for the good old U. S. A., so hereâs hoping this bottle goes some place. Bill Dukek, Captain of the ill-fated 5.5. Anna Grace. P. S.âDonât hurry about the rescue. This place is not so bad. (These parts of the diary I kept were the only bits rescued when our yacht cracked up.âW. D.) June 1, 1950 New York. At last all arrangements have been completed for my world cruise. We set sail tomorrow. This morning I went down to say goodbye to Mr. Samuel P. Felix, the wealthy financier, who is loaning me one of his yachts for the trip. I was shuttled from one clerk to another but Miss Dorothy Wright (a real gem), secretary to Mr. Fred Eicholtz, third vice-president of Felix, Felix and Felix Company, finally led me to the high mucky-mug, himself. (Gosh, these rich guys surely surround themselves with secretaries.) As I was leaving, a gabby clerk, named Suhrie. âaccidentallyâ pushed me down the elevator shaft as Miss Burdsall with her little elevator was coming up. No damage done, except to the top of the car. Later, at the St. Thropillton Club, an exclusive joint. Bob Ludwig, a sports commentator (so he says), and Frank Hampel, a witty cartoonist (who draws cows very well), joined me in a farewâell luncheon. June 6 Bermuda. At sea three days in this magnificent yacht with glorious weather and a balmy breeze. Captain Finigan who 33 really runs the boat, said that he expected to get plenty of speed out of the trim craft, if all went well. Fred Horne, our first mate, found two stowaways who gave their names as Tom Kinnear and Peggy Lou Hooven la new method of thumbing your way to Bermuda). Our cook. Hub Benkert, set them to work polishing celery. At the Palm Hotel, we met two old cronies, Boh Bartle-son and Boh Murray, who are running a health resort in the backwoods. Therefore, we wait while Walt Bobb, our second mate, locates Ed Powell, one of the sailors, who heard about the colony, too. We probably wonât see either one again. June 15 Canary Islands. We docked yesterday and spent all morning greeting the little Canaries. The Chief Warbler, Helen Jack, led the chorus in Let's all sing like the birdies warble.â Then we prowled around the gardens, looking at the specimens. Frank Preston lex-General and probably his reincarnation) and Eleanor Johnson, two love-birds, paid us absolutely no attention, so we strolled on. A Dorotheus Brown was warbling, âIâm only a bird in a gilded cage,â while a couple of mischievous-eyed jays, Aleene Long and Hazel Cannon, as the signs on their cage read, pestered the hammer-headed Wimpy-bird, Patricia Crampus, who mistook Keeper Dorlandâs head for a nail. W hat followed is none of your business. At Gibraltar I plan to take a plane for a brief visit to dear old England, then a swift return, joining the yacht at Marseilles. Meanwhile, the others will make merry in Spain. June 18 Madrid, Spain. On our flight from Gibraltar. Bay Morley, my pilot, had to make a forced landing. Luckily the villa of Senor-ita Katherine Haslett and her friend, Senorita Marie Preston, nee Kiley (F. P. is quite a guy), royally entertained us. Regretfully, Jimmie Nonamaker, our mechanic, fixed the motor and we left the pleasant little valley for Madrid. Soon after arriving here. Princess Eleanor Andreas, a descendant of the Royal House of Beerbon. took us to a bull fight. It was indeed a wonderful spectacle. Don Carleston Sharp was the toreador, assisted by the bull, called âel-birkinbineâ for short. One beautiful senorita, a Gil lock heiress, excitedly threw a bouquet to the bull which struck the toreador on the head and knocked him out. Wonderful Spanish feeling. June 21 Paris, France. Of course, we took in a Paris night club. No visit would be complete without it. Everything was in full swing. Monsieur Charles Hallowell. Prefect of Police, and Clara Benton were engaged in an exciting game of double solitaire. In the gambling room, Mrs. Nina Biller Preston (F. P. again. What a man!), using broken tooth-picks, Pauline Seacrist, using her exâs alimony checks, and Betty Foster (the cleverest of them all), using other peopleâs money (particularly mine), were engaged in a friendly game of Authors, or perhaps it was pinochle. Bernice Brisbane, blues warbler, was the feature of the floor show, assisted by the scintillating music of Rubinu-essle and his violin. The evening was a series of similar misfortunes, but the last straw came when Edythe Smith, the hostess, remarked, See how valuable French can be? And you said it was a rotten language!â At this I piloted her out and pushed her ofT the bridge. Hereâs one of these unsolved murders that Peg Wilson writes about so convincingly in her numerous detective yarns. June 23 London. Leaving Paris we noticed Anne Mu I liken doing high dives from the Eiffel Tower into the Tuilleriesâ Aquarium. Once she missed. Now, Annie doesn't high-dive anymore. Later, over the Channel, we sighted Jane Andrews, the famous Channel swimmer, trying to break the underwater-crossing record, while Kay Smith paced her in her speed launch. London, of course, is disagreeably foggy, and even Mr. Wm. Lake, the hotel manager, would not blow the fog away. However, when Jean Weltmer, the waitress, served my soup (which tasted like the fog outside), I began to take an interest in London. Then Lord Leslie Long, a bigwig in Parliament, escorting Ruth Morley, the Shakespearian actress, arrived. To cap the climax, Mrs. Long, in search of hubby, came in, so I left. June 28 Berlin, Germany. The German Chancellor, Adolph T. Harrison, welcomed us warmly, asking us not to stay long. Later in Fraulein Sullivanâs beer garden. Libby Way and Mary Gegan. a couple of young revolutionists, took pot-shots at me, so I took the Chancellorâs advice and we immediately took off for Marseilles. July 1 Marseilles. Over Lake Geneva Admiral Yarnall of the Swiss Navy gave us a salute of % gun (pistol) while a squadron of sausage (or Iiverwurst, as they call them) balloons, under Captain Donovanâs command, escorted our plane to the border. The President of France, Diogenes Denny, a patient of Dr. Francis Carneyâs Asylum, as we learned, escorted us to the S. S. Anna Grace and bid us a tearful farewell. 34 July 8 Tripoli. Libys. Off the coast of Tunisia, we were captured by a pirate vessel. Oh. it was a grand sight. Captain Rushton, swinging a swashbuckling sword, stood on the bridge, shouting orders. Charlie Lefevre, our diminutive cabin boy, weakened when he saw Fiona Sladen, the first mate. She weakened too, for the pirate vessel not only withdrew, hut delivered its two hostages, Cerda Wulff and Helen Leary, macaroni heiresses, to us for a carton of cigarettes. A case where the cabin-boy saved the day and two heiresses. July 14 Cairo, Egypt. Egypt, land of silence and mystery! (and super-salesmanship). In the big bazaar, an ancient, mildewed, brass merchant, Winey Sidle, sold us his diploma from the correspondence school. Vincent Musi, a Hindu faker, sold us a dirty dram of Drano, and Jojo MacDonald, the Egyptian 5 10, sold us her store. Our guide. Yarlie Ford, pulled us hastily away and we joined the expedition, leaving for the Oasis. Hours later, our party reached the Great Sphinx. There, standing before the paw, gazing into the great face, we discovered the eminent scientist, Sir Donald Allen. Lt. Bar-ford. who commanded our caravan, informed us that he had been standing there for years trying to solve the riddle of the Sphinx, while all the time Professor Adolph Norman had worked out a formula for it involving x, y, z and the Greek alphabet. On our trek, we passed another archaeology expedition in search of boneless mummies. Betty Herbert and Mary Saunders were underneath a tractor vainly trying to repair it. while Bob Ware, Maurice Xorcross and Brad Rile sat on the edge of the road and offered helpful advice as they munched hamburgers and drank cherry pop. Bossing the party was Phyllis Seuble, the famous collectoress (of menâs telephone numbers). Seeing her our pet donkey went yelping into the desert, and Jean Russel and Ted Layton went galloping after it which was the last we saw of them. Toward evening we reached one of the great Egyptian tombs. It was a beautiful sight but we could not delay. A native Arab, whose name oddly enough was Willy Cummings. led us down dark winding tunnels into the tomb. Roily Stott and Pud Blackburn, the two strongest men in the party, lifted the huge lid of the sarcophagus. There we beheld the Wonder of the ageâa live mummy. She, for it was a she, sat up, pulled off her head wrappings and chirped, âHello, Ken, old kid! â (Walker was the court jester.) âGosh, itâs Alice Jones!â, said A1 Leber, the cameraman. When we had recovered from the shock, Harold Green, our local Walt Winchell, asked, âWhat did you do to King Phtul XI who was supposed to be buried here?â âShh ...â whispered the mummy, âgentlemen prefer blondes.â Accordingly, we invited her to accompany us. She climbed into Darlington, our Model T, whereupon Ken Walter and Vince McGarry, our two sleepiest porters, started pushing her and the car and me. On the return trip, a wandering band of Bedouins overtook and captured us. Underneath his false moustache we recognized Algon Reith as the head of the tribe. He took great pleasure in introducing us to his harem which included such Arabian (?) beauties as Mary Collins, Louise Vetter, Virginia Vernon and Mary Wall, who gave us the Dances of the Seven, Six, Five, and Four Veils, respectively. Regretfully we took our leave. Tomorrow we kiss goodbye to Egypt (and the harem). July 19 Suez Canal. At the Canal we were slightly delaved while Pedro Leon Singer, chief lock-buster and tender, figured out which end of the boat went in first. Meanwhile, George Cornog and his wife, the former Jane Tuke, who are growing figless dates and grapeless cherries on a nearby plantation, entertained us. The arrival of the greatest engineer, Edward Q. Homiller, A.B.C., PhD., X. .Z., settled our little Canal problem and we finally went through. July 28 Bombay, India. We landed in India, right in the midst of another revolution, fomented this time by those two radicals. Allen Zepp, the Hallyboo Editor, and his partner. Dan Hoffman, the Governor-General. Alan Schlosser, head of the rebel forces, arrived to give us a warm welcome. Then when Eggs Gibson, Colonel of the Lancers, swept through to clean up the rebels, we left, not trusting in our neutrality any longer. August 6 Singapore. No sooner had our boat rammed into the dock than we met Woodrow (Bring âem back alive) Cooper, a pearl trader here. He took us to the popular Malay Club, where we saw a swell show. There was, as they say in the newsreels. a bevy of stars, Vince Viscidy and his Melody Murderers. Walter Downward, the popular radio crooner, Doris Drake, the celebrated danseuse, and Earl Olewine, the Rachmaninoff of the Malay Peninsula. Later, several celebrities and I went on a tiger hunt. While our party was tramping through the jungle, the tiger suddenly dropped down from a tree in front of us. 35 Viv Erickson screamed, Adelaide Redheffer, famous as the star of âPassion Flowerâ, fainted. Sighting Anita Baer, the tiger began to chase her, hut Tarzan-like, she leaped into the air and the tiger missed. Then he spied the Hockman sisters. But he was so mixed up by seeing two of them that he made himself dizzy running around trying to catch them, and fell over. Then Bill McCully (Oxford Polo Team. 19421, raised his gun and fired, thus saving the day and covering himself with glory. Only then, we realized that Harry Reichert, the tiger-hunter and famous explorer, had fainted from fright. August 14 Bangkok, Siam. We thought we were fortunate when we secured an audience with the King and Queen of Siam. But what a shock! The King was none other than Herb Glasby who had grown a long heard since his travelling salesman days, and the Queen was, of course, his wife, Edith Goss. Upon joyfully slapping the Royal pair on their backs in a gesture of brotherly affection, the Chief of Police, a long fellow called Davidsky McKee, arrived with a body of troops and escorted us to our ship, saying, âxyuillo poofâ (in English, âGoodbye, please). Assisted by a friendly tap in the rear from the Kingâs Henchman, Sir Don Redden, I retired hastily. August 25 Hong Kong, China. On the King Kong football field, we saw a hockey game between All-American and All-Chinese teams. On the American team we recognized a few pieces as being parts of Captain Marion Snyder, Lillian Lohr, Beatrice Mosley, and Anita Murphy. The crew decided to wrap up these left-overs to take home as souvenirs, while 1 decided that the Captain deserved my attention. The fair damsels of the Chinese team were SingHi. SingLo, Sing-Sing. Torch-Song, etc. When one of the American huskies broke the hall, the game stopped with a mere thirty casualties. We leave China today without our fourth mate. Hen peck Apple-gate. who fell overboard while star-gazing at the Chinese maidens, sun-bathing on their junks. September 9 Tokyo, Japan. We had a regular reception committee waiting for us at Yokohama. The Honorable Abram Haupt. the Ambassador (see Soglow), escorted Virginia Stockett. Hollywood celebrity and ex-wife of Frank Yeager, flyweight champion. while a Miss Dorothy W alls, who is making nightgowns for the Japanese Army, and Miss Betty B. Miller, an enterprising police reporter, tagged along behind. Walking along the wharf we found our friends Graham Perley, refereeing a cock-roach fight, and Jonski Britton, the bearded Russian, trying to swap old automobile tires for jade necklaces with the ignorant foreigners. We endeavored to get an audience with the Emperor for Bill Gill, our chief engineer, wanted to sell His Majesty an old brass safety razor, badly dented from Billâs chin. Although we did manage to meet Yojo Heffron, who bore the imposing title of Most High Almighty Flower of the Sun, Imperial Order of the Tennis Racquet, etc., and Ek-rita Vituli, secretary to the Imperial Baby Carriage, our visit was fruitless for Bebe Moran, the Lord High Executioner, and Y'adida Taylor, Princess of the Royal Order of the Sock and Garter, suddenly descended on us en masse. The Japanese have funny names. Tomorrow we set out across the Pacific toward South America. We plan to spend the summer (for it will be summer in December there) touring the South American countries. September 20 Near Caroline Islands, Lat. 0 Long. 160°E. Yesterday, 500 miles from land, we picked up a man floating on a piece of wreckage. Besides being hungry and thirsty he said his name was Jacob Wean (the famous aviator). As soon as he had eaten our month s rations, he became delirious and could say nothing more. Dr. Howard Deshong (ship's doctor) thought he was affected by the sun, but Audrey Banker, our little stewardess, stuck up for him. She thought he looked just like Cliff Kelly, the dashing movie star. Personally he reminds me of that picture of Kenneth Cloukey, the ex-con, wanted and hunted by both women and the police. Dancing Ken, they call him. December 5 Amazon Island, Lat. Long. Unknown. Well, itâs all over now. Near Lat. 25 S. and Long. 1B0°, we were struck by a terrific storm. For days the wind howled and the tornado raged. We were blown hundreds of miles from our course and finally wrecked on this island. The boat was lost, although all hands were saved, thank God. Here we found a strange race of women, ruling the island, like the original Amazons. They took us under their protection so we don't lack for food, clothing, or shelter. The island is small, but richly provided, and according to the queen. Betty Jean Madden, no ships ever stop here. In other words we are ship-wrecked and lost to the outside world. Oh, well! The Secretary of State. Jean Anne Evans, and the Chief Welcome Committee (we were the first she ever welcomed) told us of their country and because the only men on the 36 island hide in the backwoods, found our burly sailors âinterestingâ. This place was evidently a refuge of some sort. Marguerite Bertram had fled here to âescape her publicâ, Judy Holloway, to escape her men, and Margaret Mitchell, just to escape. All of these feminine Hercules had a job in the government. Audrey Dickson was Admiral of the Navy, which consisted of one leaky canoe: Mary Conway was the War Department (the men are the enemy); Betty Hirst was the Public Censor; Blanche Haas was Pure Food Inspector (lip-stick and finger-nail polish), and Esther George (who didnât even know her own language! was Chief Interpreter. Margaret Hamilton runs the newspaper and Florence Steeble the schools, so we decided we needed to enter a second childhood. When I announced my intention of setting this bottle adrift in hope that the current would carry it to some civilized shore. Bob Suddards tried to murder me. I finally had to sit on him before I could finish this. We re having a swell time here, but we are getting lonely for some good old American food. By the way, there's a guy by the name of Frank Preston living here too. This fellow Preston certainly does get in oneâs way. The survivorsâAnna Grace Wilson, Betty iNeyman, John Birkinbine, Captain and Crew of S. S. Anna Grace and Bill Dukek. (Editor's NoteâThis is a true story of the sea. The U. S. S. Lansdowne, which went to the rescue of the survivors of the pleasure yacht was never heard of again. Last seen, it was somewhere near the supposed location of the island. The actual details of this account were found in an old rowboat which was washed ashore on the New Zealand coast, several months ago. The sole survivor, an old man. dying from hunger and thirst, could give no information except the log of the âLansdowneâ, and the letter and diary of the cruise of the âAnna Graceâ which had been carefully preserved these five years. Just before he died, they asked him his name. He gasped one word, âPreston!â, and expired. 37 CLASS WILL of 1934 BE it remembered that we, the class of 193f, Lansdowne High School, being of sound disposing mind, memory, and understanding, do make, publish, and declare this, our last will and testament in the manner and form following; hereby revoking and making void any and all wills of ours at any time heretofore made.

Upon the sophomores, hollow-headed though they be, we bestow the dignity that will come through the years. Item III. Last but most important, upon the freshmen whose cheerful prattling voices have made the second floor appear more like a dovecote than a school, we bestow the speed and ambition that it takes to get any further. Item IV. To the faculty we have naught to give, but the regret that they will be deprived of a class upon whom they have showered so many complimentary remarks.

Betty Neytnanâs love for the sea to any sailor. Doris Drakeâs musical abilities go to the N. B. C. net-work. The lovely drawl of Nina Biller is carried on by Charles Ferguson.

Earle Olewineâs knowledge we leave with regards to Grade Allen. Peggy Lou Hoovenâs love for a good time to El Ivy. W e leave Gerda WullfTs piano to George Gershwin. Betty Hirst s giggle we bestow upon Mr. Drake with the hope that he can do something w ith it. Jo Macdonald leaves Lansdowne for bigger and better placesâ (perhaps!).

However, a terrific tornado battered and heat this craft relentlessly. Through this chaos emerged a storm-tossed and broken hulk. The 1933 cruise of Lansdowneâs football season was far from successful. In fact, it wras disastrous. But that is not the whole story. This team brought something back that even the stigma of defeat could not wipe out. That is, a fighting spirit and a stout heart. The poor record of the season, ten defeats, one tie, is no basis for judging the team, however. Every player gave his utmost to a vain cause and smiled in the face of defeat. Some of these who deserve special mention for their work are: Captain Yeager, for his wonderful punting and heady work at quarter; Bill Lake and Fred Mitchell, for their excellent ball-carrying and work on defense; Carl Speidel, an honorable mention on the All-Suburban team, and always in the middle of every play; Bill Cummings and Winant Sidle, sharing honors at center; Bob Thompson and Jake Wean, bulwarks of the line; Bud Jordan, another honorable mention on the All-Suburban team, for his steady work at guard, and every other member of the team, Pierre Brulte, Ted Layton, Claude Figgs, Jo Broadbent, Chas. Lefevre, George Cummings, Jack Ricksecker, Jim Xonamaker, Grant Fields, Maurice Norcross, Earl Olewine, and lest we forget, Allen Zepp, Fred Horne and the one and only Roger Hitchens. Th is bunch of athletes gave their all for Lansdowne football, took their defeats manfully and with no excuses. As Mr. Horner, coach of the 1933 grid-machine, says, âIt doesnât matter if you win or lose, itâs how you played the game.â Certainly, no one can criticize Lansdowne there. They played the game. 50 SCHEDULE Lansdowne, 0 Bethlehem, 7 Lansdowne, 0 Media, 7 Lansdowne, 0 Darby, 18 Lansdowne, 0 Ridley Park, 6 Lansdowne, 0 Upper Darby, 27 Lansdowne, 0 Radnor, 19 Lansdowne, 0 Haverford. 0 Lansdowne, 2 Norristown. 12 Lansdowne, 6 Sharon Hill, 14 Lansdowne, 0 Swarthmore, 16 51 HOCKEY HOCKEY, throughout its recent season, has been the victim of malicious luck. Despite the laudable teamwork of the girls and the fine ability displayed by each, the games resulted in only sorrow and defeat. Yet these girls are not without deserving praise, for they never lost heart upon any occasion; each succeeding loss only spurred them on to a finer exhibition of their ability. When at last the season ended, there still remained an overabundance of enthusiasm among the girls, and Coach Allen was more than proud of the interest and co-operation of the entire squad. So with these few words of praise, we leave this little group of valiant sports and look ahead to the season of 1934. Judging from the present available material, we predict a remarkable and (let's hope) victorious team.

Basketball Teamâ held their ship to the course and brought it through to a smashing finish, taking second prize in the great League race. Let's look at their log. In the final scoring, Meade led with 107 points with Winterbottom, 78. Moitz, 70. and Yeager and Lefevre, 51, following. The entire squad performed nobly in winning 11 out of their 18 games to take second place in the league race. The credit for the success is not only due to the fighting spirit and fine play of Captain Winterbottom and his crew but also to the splendid coaching of Mr. A. Todd Coromvay. 53 Freshman Team Second Team THIS year's Freshman Class Team in Basketball began with 45 candidates and from that number there were 18 retained. A schedule of eight games with other schools was played, besides the eight games played in the inter-class league. This year was the first time the Freshmen have won the class league cup. They were aided in this, however, because seniors and juniors were compelled to forfeit two games for using ineligible players. It is believed that the material developed this year will form the nucleus for a good second team next year. No one player was an outstanding star, but all fitted into a system and it was this factor which contributed mostly to a successful year. The average height of the squad was over two inches more than last year's Freshman team. THE second team performed with similar success, winning 12 out of their 16 games to win first place in B League. Cummings. Ricksecker, Politis, Schweitzer and Brown were the stellar performers for the second team, piling up the tremendous score of 130 points. The success of our basketball season, one of the best in the annals of the school, was due not only to the fine team work and splendid coaching but also to the loyal and unswerving support of the student body. With such a backing, our new frigate, the L. H. S. ââBasketball Team, 1935â, ought to take to the seas in championship style. Good voyage, lads! 54 GIRLS' BASKETBALL GIVE a cheer for the girls' basketball team for they certainly deserve it! Of the eight games they played this season they lost only one, and that bv only one point. The scores of their victories always far surpassed those of their opponents. Each girl showed remarkable sportsmanship and ability, while the team, as a whole, never lacked co-operation. Coach Allenâs very proud of them, and soâs Lansdowne High School, for such girls are more than a credit to a school. In conclusion, we extend our heartiest praise to our undefeated second team, which has no nobly upheld the honor of Lansdowne High School. We predict many future teams of victory and merit, for such a fine squad cannot fail to produce less.

Miller 55 TRACK LONG before the snow melted, the track team turned out for their first indoor practice in the gym. Just a few appeared the first day, hut before long the gym resounded to many pounding feet circling the floor. At the first sign of spring, the squad, now grown to considerable size, moved into the field house and onto the athletic field. All through the Easter Holidays the team practiced faithfully. More than four weeks of hard practice were put behind by the time of the first meet. We met Wilmington on our own field on Friday, April 13th, and vanquished them easily by a score of 77 2 3 to 30 1 3. This meet served to break in the team; to give them their first chance to show up under competition. The following Wednesday we met Darby, again on our own field. Here we met stifTer competition, winning hv a score of 65 to 18. In this meet. Tommy Harrison started them off by breaking the school record in the low hurdles. The first interscholastic meet was the Union A. A. Invitation Meet for Delaware County High Schools and was held on our own field. In this we tied for sixth. The meet was won by Upper Darby H. S. Our relay quartet took Lansdowneâs only first place. They won easily, lowering the school record from 3:12 to 3:10. The following Wednesday, we met Kidlev Park and Media in the only triangle meet of the season at the former's field. Here we took a good second. Score: R.P., 57; L.H.S., 1 ; M.H.S., 28. Undaunted by this defeat, the team travelled to the Penn Relays on the following Friday. Here they won the Philadelphia Suburban âB Mile Relay Championship. To top it, they ran the fastest high school mile of the afternoon. The second day of the relays was not so lucky for the Garnet eindermen. They fell in a class with out-of- stale-high schools and prep schools, three of whom beat our quartet. On Wednesday, May 2nd, we met Chester H. S. in an easy meet which we won 86 to 13. On Saturday of the same week, the team won its first championship at the University of Delaware Interscholastics. Three records fell by the wayside as the Garnet team won from seventeen other schools. Following this, we beat Episcopal to the tune of 71 to 45. Then came the Vilianova Interscholastics. Norristown won here, Lansdowne taking fourth. Wednesday of the following week brought us face to face with the hardest dual meet of the entire year, Swarthmore 11. S. This we won in the final events by a score of 56V2 to 511 . From here we travelled to Upper Darby for the Annual P. I. A. A. Meet. Again Norristown won and Lansdowne took fourth. A dual meet with Glen Nor followed the State Meet on our own field. Still undefeated in dual meets, we won by a score of 82 to 31. Then came the Atlantic City Relay Carnival. It was the meet most looked forward to by the team through the 56 entire season. On a cold windy day, our Ahhottmen came through to win the team trophy. The week following this saw us idle. On Saturday of this week we journeyed to Norristown. Here our relay team lost for the first time in the suburban ranks, although they beat their own record. Norristown won the third time with the Garnet at its usual fourth. SOCCER COACH ABBOTT put a surprisingly strong soccer team on the field last fall. However, the team was somewhat erratic and therefore its record does not indicate its true potentialities. There is one more barrier to be climbedâthe Prospect Park Meet on Wednesday, June 6th. To win this would mean to end the most successful season Lansdowne has ever had on the cinderpath. Hail the Ahhottmen! Theyâre champions!! SCHEDULE April 13âWilmington H. S. April 18âDarby H. S.

Upper Darby had a hard fight but finally defeated us 4-0, scoring all their goals in the last quarter. Abington took an easy 3-0 contest, but the losing streak was broken when Haverford was defeated 2-0. In a very loosely-played game Swarthmore evened the series with a 5-0 verdict. Swarthmore College Fresh were taken into camp 2-0 and 4-0. However, Upper Darby and Abington proved their mastery by beating the Garnet 5-1 and 3-0. The most exciting game of the year was the final one against Haverford. The boys came from behind a 1-0 lead to win when Captain A1 Schlosser scored the winning goal with two minutes left to play.

PLAYERS Beckworth Hampel Ellenberger Buckson 57 TENNIS DUE lo an unusually fine group of players this year, the girls tennis team may expect a very successful season. Several players from last year who deserve a lot of credit for their splendid work are as follows: Alice Jones, Peggy Jones, Bunny Harshaw. and Jean Anne Evans. The team is being coached by Miss Sally Allen, an ardent tennis fan, herself. The senior manager is Dorothy Brown and her assistant, the junior manager, is Nancy Perkins. ONCE more Lansdowneâs Championship Tennis Team swings into action. This year the team displaying stellar form promises to have another championship season which will mean, of course, a second leg on the new Suburban Championship Cup. Two years ago, Lansdowne retired the old cup from competition, and last year secured a leg on a new one. The team, ably coached by Mr. Wycliffe Griffin, consists of Gordon Fetter, Captain Bob Jessup. Don Richardson, Ken Walker. Don Redden, George Jordan, George Boarman, and Paul Gray, while Claude Figgs acts as manager. This year for the first time in history Lansdowne has a second team which also has a schedule of matches. Some of its members are Bill Lowden, George Fornu-alt, Wilbur Johnston, Henry Ball, Richard Brown, and Bill Ash-bridge, while Bob Geuting and Bill Taylor play on the Junior High School team. The tennis team has League matches with Radnor, Lower Mer-ion, Upper Darby, Chester, Abington, Norristown, Cheltenham, and Berwyn, besides several other outside matches and tournaments. 58 GOLF TEAM DURING the early spring, the unsung heroes were practicing at Lansdowne Country Club. When the matches got under way, the boys put their whole heart and soul into every stroke, victory being the result. Although the boys have not been successful in all their matches, they have maintained the same spirit. About twenty boys reported for golf this year. Three of last year's regulars who reported were: Captain Frank Preston. Fred Horne and Graham Perley. Ed Miles, one who surprised everyone with his golfing ability, also helped to make up the team. Joe Scully and Jack Persson also contributed to the team. Bradford Rile, Manager of the team, arranged a schedule including matches with Upper Darby, Haverford, Cheltenham. Lower Merion, Glen-Nor. Chester and Abington. Mr. Tammeryn, although overworked this year, gave his hearty support to the boys. 59 BASEBALL N the third season since its re-installation in Lansdowne, Baseball promises to produce a championship team, for it is becoming more and more popular. Under the capable coaching of Mr. VV. Herbert Horner, the team is making great progress in its fight for League supremacy. The team, according to their batting order, consists of George Cummings, playing either second or catcher, Pierre Brulte at left field, Frank Gambol at center field. Frank Yeager, the captain, at either third or shortstop, Reds Rush-ton at either third or shortstop. Earl McCord at first base, AI Gray at right field, and George Winterbottom at catcher. The pitching staff consists of Bill Cummings, Jim Fitzgerald, Fred Barford, or Sonny Meade, while other members of the team are Jim McGory at second, Fred Garber at second. Jack McSherry at catcher. ich Travagline at right field, and Bill Lake at left field. Bob Bartleson, assisted by Frank Mahoney and Clarence Smith arts as manager. At the present writing the team is in second place in the League, having won and lost two. Although Upper Darby defeated the Garnet and Gray 5 to 2, Darby 3 to 2 and Conshohocken 3 to 0, Lansdowne literally swamped Upper Merion 12 to 4 and Radnor 15 to 1. The team is batting .314 now since Capt. Yeager and Winterbottom have averages high in the six hundreds. The team plays Darby, Conshohocken, Upper Merion, and Radnor in its League matches besides Upper Darby, Prospect Park, Haverford, Nether Providence, Swarthmore, and Lower Merion in its games outside the League. Lansdowne's baseball team is not only impressive in appearance, but also spectacular in action. Captain Yeager, whose speciality is home-runs and two baggers, and George Winterbottom, who makes a specialty of singles, doubles, triples, and home-runs, are two of the dashing figures on the diamond, while Bill Cummings, whose consistently fine pitching wins many games, shines at the mound. We could go on if space permitted to tell innumerable examples of fine baseball by each member of the team, for with a group of stars such as Lansdowne has we may expect really professional ball. Undoubtedly with such fine hitting and fielding, Lansdowne will soon have a first-division team that we can call League Champions. 60 SUMMARY OF GIRLS SPORTS THE iris of Lansdowne High School started off their athletic program for the year very poorly. It was the hockey season and the outlook wasn't right, hut the girls stuck with grim determination to a losing ship and did their level best to bring it safely to port. Marion Rurdsall, the captain, led the team well, and the other ten co-operated with her in scoring the goals. However, this jinxed streak did not continue into other sports, so the black cat must have died at the end of the hockey season, because basketball soon followed hockey with a speedy squad of players who carried a stupendous season to an end. Consecutive victories with quite large scores were the rule except in the one loss of the schedule. Having gained the winning streak the girls glided right on to a very successful season in tennis, led by several players of former years. They won their matches with good scores, and showed grand fighting spirit and very good form. ⢠⢠SUMMARY OF BOYS SPORTS LANSDOWNEâS football team, coached by Mr. Herbert Horner, lost to Bethlehem 0-7. Media 0-7, Darby 0-18, Ridley Park 0-6, Upper Darby 0-27. Lower Merion 0-57, Radnor 0-19, Norristown 2-12. Sharon Hill 6-1 1. and Swarthmore 0-16, while Haverford was held to a scoreless tie. Basketball enjoyed a most successful season, for the team came in second in the B League, having won eleven and lost eight games. The team coached by Mr. A. Todd Coronway lost to Alumni 16-29, Darby 1 1-17, Consho-hocken 29-38, Dickinson Freshman 30-49, Upper Darby 11-25, Darby 16-32, P. M. C. Jayvees 12-14, and Upper Darby 18-25, while it won from the Alumni 27-17, Haver-ford 29-23, Episcopal 15-13, Media 20-8. Upper Darby 26-23. Upper Merion 30-14, Radnor 33-20. Media 30-11, Conshohoeken 21-16, Upper Merion 24-16, and Radnor 31-30. They showed considerable strength and fight in playing and an excellent season, for each member of the team starred. Lansdowne this year had a track team of which it could well be proud. The team earned the right to near championship letters when it won seven dual meets from Wilmington, Darby, Chester, Episcopal. Swarthmore, Glen- or and Prospect Park and took second in a triangle meet with Media and Ridley Park. The team also came 6th in the U. A. A. Meet, 1th in the Villanova Interscholastics, first in the Delaware Interscholastics, and 5th in the P. I. A. A. Meet. The mile relay team won the Suburban championship at the Penn Relays and created many school and meet records. Records were also broken this year in the pole vault, shot-put. javelin, broad-jump, the 440, the 880 and the hurdles. To Mr. E. Carleton Abbot the credit must go for building such a fine team in this scant three years that he has hccn with Lansdowne, for this championship team has carried off not only first honors in A League, but 34 medals, one cup. one trophy and one plaque. In baseball, coached by Mr. Herbert Horner, again there has been a fine team which stands a fine chance of winning the League race. It has beaten Upper Merion 12-4, Radnor 15-1. and has dropped some to Lpper Darby 2-5, Darby 2-3. Conshohoeken 0-3, Darby 2-3 and Conshohoeken 4-5, while Upper Merion, Radnor, I pper Darby. Prospect Park. Haverford. Nether Providence, Swarthmore and Lower Merion must yet be played. The team, captained by Frank Yeager, was managed by Bob Bartleson. In tennis again there was the usual championship team. Under the coaching of Mr. B. Wycliffe Griffin, the team won matches from Radnor, Lower Merion, Haverford. Cheltenham, and Abington and lost a close one to I pper Darby. It also competed in the Princeton Intermediates and the Middle Atlantic States Tournament. The team was captained by Bob Jessup and managed by Claude Figgs. Between football and basketball Lansdowne this year had an exceptionally fine soccer team coached by Mr. E. Carlton Abbott. It won five and lost six games, conquering Swarthmore 1-0, Haverford 2-0 and 4-0, and bowing to Upper Darby 0-4 and 1-5. Abington 0-3 and 0-3, Swarthmore 0-5. and Lower Merion 0-2. 61 I T I E S LAHIAN STAFF EARLY in the year, the staff turned to, to make the 1934 Lahian just as ship shape as possible. Under the pilot-ship of Mr. George J. Epley and Miss Margaret McCullough, Captain Betty Jean Madden. Editor-in-Chief, taught the staff the ropes, and the crew rigged ship and sailed from port prepared to weather all severe storms. Executive Officer William Dukek, Assistant Editor, earned his salt as an able seaman and master of the crew, while Elizabeth Way, Betty B. Miller, Gerda Wulff, Josephine MacDonald, Marian Snyder, Louise Vetter, Betty Neyman, and Jean Anne Evans, seamen first class, proved that a crew of women is every bit as capable as a crew of men. No less seaworthy were the seamen second class: Nelle Kelly, Hazel Bien, Beatrice Cornog and Isabel High. Marguerite Bertram and Rita Sullivan were an indispensable part of the crewâwho rattled away on their typewriters in the teeth of the booming gale, when moments were precious and work hurried. Edward Homiller and Kenneth Cloukey, Chief Petty Officers, managed the business details with the help of Harry Nuessle, Thomas Harrison, Robert Jessup, Doris Drake, Judy Halloway. Howard Deshong, Donald Redden, Helen Gillock, and Jean Weltmer, first males. Without the assistance of the second mates, Barbara Topliss, George Fornwaldt, Robert Parsons, Albert Gray. Roy Mann, Myles Charleton, Robert Griswold, Roy Mann, and Elizabeth Lewis, as well as the assistance of the third mates Charles Ferguson, Richard Homiller. Bunny Harshaw, Charles Miller, Helen Mosher, Louis Wyndham, R. Stone, William Stabler, Robert Mayer, Thomas W illis, Reed Shaw, Loraine Stockctt, Larry Norton, Elizabeth McMachad, Paul Gray, Sue Earnest, Helen Birkinbine, and James Cryer. the good ship Lahian would never have kept its course so smoothly or returned to port so perfect a masterpiece. As far as the art endâthe Lahian is tip-top from bow to stern, above board and below decks, due to the management and artistic taste of the art editors: W'alter Downward and Katheryn King, as well as the photographing and engraving editors. Commanders Dorothy Brown and Arthur Erdman. Lieutenant Commander Sidney Jones worked like a Trojan to get ads to finance the cruise; while Henry Pen field saved the day by taking over one hundred pictures. 64 GARNET AND GRAY UNDER the supervision of Miss Virginia Lilley and the loyalty of the staff, the 1933-34 Garnet and Gray has given the student body âa new dealâ by lowering the subscription rates. I he Garnet and Gray is a member of the National School Press Association, the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, and the Pennsylvania School Press Association. I he stafl consisted of Jean Weitmer, editor-in-chief; Marion Snyder, Alice Jones, William Dukek, associate editors; Elizabeth Way, news editor, with Jack Hansen, Doris Drake, and Betty Fox, as her assistants. Winant Sidle was sports editor and Anna Grace W ilson, Frank Yeager, Donald Redden, and Nancy Perkins were his assistants. Jean Anne Evans was feature editor and Helen Vance and Barbara lopliss were associate feature editors. Reporters were Ellen Powell and Betty Startsman. The exchange editor was Anne Mu 11 ik in. Staff typists were as follows: Rita Sullivan, Anita Murphy, Beatrice Mosley, Eleanor Andreas, Audrey Dickson, Marguerite Bertram, Mary Wall and Dorothy Brown. Howard Deshong and Fred Horne were the business managers. Mr. Snyder was the advisor of the business staff. Other assistants were Gordon Fetter, Jane Dorland. John Britton. Joe Gerry, Thomas Harrison. Margaret Holloway, and John Zankl. G5 STUDENT COUNCIL THIS year the Student Council lias sponsored many important activities throughout the school. As in years before a number of members have acted as monitors in the halls during the changing of the classes. These monitors have helped to overcome a great part of the unnecessary confusion. This year handbooks were issued by the student council only for the freshmen and new-comers. Upper classmen were charged a small amount if they wished one. Not only has the council continued to improve conditions in the school, hut also to provide amusement to enliven the minutes between the morning and afternoon sessions by holding noon dances in the Gym. Our Student Council belongs to the Philadelphia Inter-Suburban Student Council Association which meets during the year, various schools being hosts. This year our members were the successful hosts, having the largest number present. At these meetings many school problems are discussed by the different schools represented. Other important issues supported by the Student Council are the sale of school stickers, pennants, and lockets. They have also obtained felt seals, worn on sweaters, to be sold for those who are unable to acquire letters from an activity. They have aided the faculty in solving and cooperating with the point system which was put into effect for the first time this year. At Christmas time many letters of greeting were received from famous people after members of the Student Council had sent the schoolâs best wishes to well-known people of various fields. The Student Council always co-operates with the many drives throughout the school year although not always in charge, and through the Council we have received many opportunities which otherwise could not be obtained individually. The officers were: Robert Jessup, president: Dorothy Walls, vice-president; Mary Saunders, secretary; Charles Lefcvrc, treasurer. r.G NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY THE Lansdowne chapter of the National Honor Society, organized in 1930, is an organization modeled after the Phi Beta Kappa of colleges, and its purpose is to stimulate an interest in scholarship and school activities. In March, 1934, at a meeting of the representatives of the various Honor societies, it was decided that the organization should he active as well as honorary. The chief activities this year have been to find a suitable service that the members of the society may render to the school, without conflicting with the activities of any other organization. The membership is permanent, and new members are elected by a council composed of the principal, the faculty, and members of the society. The initiation ceremony has received national recognition as being especially suited to the occasion. It is in the form of a ritual over which the members elected the year before preside. The four cardinal points, scholarship, leadership, character, and service to the school are represented by four candles, and an enlarged seal of the society is illuminated by torchlight. The members elected in 1933 were: Theodore Layton, president; Jean Weltmer, secretary; Edward Homiller, treasurer; Betty Jean Madden, Sam Felix, Kenneth Cloukey, Doris Drake, Jacob Wean, and Bob Jessup. The initiation ceremonies for 1934 were held in May. The following seniors were elected: Dorothy Walls, Winant Sidle, Gerda Wulff, Harry Nuessle. Jean Anne Evans, Betty B. Miller. William Dukek. Mary Saunders, Alfred Leber, Robert Ware, Marian Snyder, Alice Jones, Elizabeth ay, Audrey Dickson, Eleanor Andreas, William Gill. The juniors installed in 1934 were: Peggy Jones, Ruth Bergner, Albert Gray, Charles French, Gordon Fetter, Judy Suddards, Roy Mann. Beatrice Cornog, Catherine Mingey, Richard Ellenberger. 67 Hl-Y DEBATING THE Hi-Y Club consists of thirty-one members who are selected from the junior and senior classes. Each candidate must be elected unanimously before she may become a member. The purpose of the Hi-Y Club is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of living, better sportsmanship, fellowship, and higher scholarship. To develop its members intellectually, physically, spiritually, and socially is the ultimate aim of the club. For the meetings which were held every other week, some very good speakers were obtained. Mrs. McCormick spoke on Egypt: Mrs. A. Snyder gave an interesting talk on âThe History of the Stage in Philadelphiaâ; Mr. Mel-choirâs speech was âVocations and Avocations.â The Hi-Y girls were helpful this season in many ways. Old clothes were gathered, fixed, and given away; large baskets of food were distributed at Christmas. They sold writing paper to earn money for this work. Parents and teachers were assisted by the members all during the school year. The girls took care of the little children during school teas at the grade school. They served lunch and dinner to four hundred people at the Music Festival. This year the Hi-Y Club was under the supervision of Miss Cook, with Dorothy W alls as president. THE Lansdowne Debating Club is a member of the Suburban Debate League, the purpose of which is to develop an interest in competitive reasoning and to furnish worthwhile recreation. The question this year was: âResolved, That the United States should adopt the essential features of the operation and control of the British Broadcasting system.â Dual debates were held with the other members of the debate league, and special debates were held before various community organizations. At the close of the season a convention was held at I pper Darby High School, where delegates from the member schools of the debate league met and voted on plans for the organization and control of the clubs next year. This convention was followed by a dinner. The following people participated in debates: Harry Neussle, Kenneth Cloukey, John Birkinbine. William Dukek. James Nonamaker, Carl Black, Elizabeth Way, Jean Anne Evans, Catherine Mingey, and Harold Green. Other members of the club were: Clinton Kunde. Mary Tillotson, and Betty Jones. 58 THE BAND THE ORCHESTRA PICCOLO Hale, Russell Bb CLARINETS Bobb. Walter Brosch. Norman Felix. Samuel Glashy, Herbert Cundel. Charles Miller.

On April 27, the Third Annual Music Festival was presented in the High School Auditorium, and the Choral group, consisting of two hundred seventy-five members, contributed the following program: Sanctus Franz Schubert Junior High School Chorus Bendemeerâs Stream Irish Folk Song Chorus of Alto-Tenors How Lovely are the Messengers . âS . Paul99. Mendelssohn High School Mixed Chorus River, River.....................Chilean Folk Song High School Girlsâ Glee Clb Bridal Chorus, âThe Rose Maiden â.......... Cotven High School Mixed Chorus Thanksgiving Prayer Old Nether land Tune Combined Choruses THE Mixed Chorus, a combination of the Boysâ and Girlsâ Glee Clubs, ranks among the most popular extra-curricular activities of our school. An enrollment, doubled this year, bespeaks the fruitful efforts of Miss Downey, the adviser. This group contributed their services to the community as well as to the school. A Choral program was presented at the Presbyterian Church on March 1. The other programs given during the year were at our Assembly periods, for the Lower Merion High School Assembly, and a Home and School meeting. A selected group from the Mixed Chorus presented for the Christmas program, the Cantata, âThe Christ Childâ. This was done very beautifully. Solo parts were sung by members of the chorus. The efforts of this group were climaxed in the Choral program given at the Suburban Music Festival held in Lansdowne on May II. Miss Downey directed the following program: All In the April Evening......................Koberton Mexican Serenade Chadwick River, River Chilean Folk Song Italian Street Song, âNaughty Mariettaâ Victor Herbert Dr. P. W. Dykema, Teachersâ College, Columbia University, acted as Adjudicator for the Suburban Festival and commented very highly on the splendid work of the Chorus. 70 Mixed Chorus Science Club SCIENCE CLUB STAMP CLUB A T the request of a group of students Mr. Hurlock, in March, 1934, announced the formation of a science club in Lansdowne High. Due to various interruptions it was impossible to hold regular meetings, but a constitution was written which set the date for meetings, purpose of the club membership requirements, establishment of committees, etc. The primary purpose of the club, obviously, is to give students with a scientific inclination an opportunity to increase their knowledge and to do some personal research. A secondary purpose is to foster interest in the other sciences by talks by members during the regular meetings. At the second meeting, elections were held and the officers elected were: President, James Nonamaker; Vice-President, Robert Mayer; Secretary-Treasurer, Earle Olewine. At the last meeting of the year the officers for the next year were elected. They are: President. Mayer; Vice-President, Finn; Secretary, Anderson, and Treasurer, Westcott. THE Lansdowne High School Stamp Club with a greatly increased membership has enjoyed its most successful year this past season. The club re-organized in September and held meetings in various rooms each Tuesday. The officers were: Sidney Jones, president; Paul List, vice-president; Doris Drake, secretary; and John Rirkinbine, treasurer. In February, the club welcomed its new advisor, Mrs. Esther Morris. Various projects were undertaken during the year, the most successful being the exhibition on School Night and the cake sale on April 28th. This sale was to raise money to buy books, magazines, and periodicals for the club next year. Various prominent speakers of the philatelic world were secured, and the club also received a letter written to them by President Roosevelt. The club will continue as usual next year with a full program which includes a plan for presenting a program in assembly. 71 Stamp Club SENIOR PLAY A DAM AiND EV Aâ, by Guy Bolton and George Middleton, this Yearâs Senior Play, proved to be an exceptionally fine performance. Three things made it a remarkable hit: First, was Miss Virginia M. Lilley, who so ably directed and handled the Senior Play (with the gracious aid of Mrs. Adelaide Snyder who stepped in at the last moment when Miss Lilley was suddenly stricken ill). Second, was the cast who gave without exception an unquestionably fine performance. It included, proceeding from left to right, in the photograph: Wm. Dukek as Horace Pilgrim, James King's uncle, a great sufferer of bad digestion and insomnia, thoroughly happy in explaining his ills and sleeping in the most comfortable chair; Betty Neyman as Aunt Abby Rocker, Kingâs sister-in-law, a fanatic on womenâs clubs and charities and, like the rest of the family, helpless and useless; John Finigan as James King, a wealthy but irritable parent fed up with family life: Eleanor Andreas as Corinthia, his efficient but romantic parlor maid who fell in love with the wrong person; Allen Zepp as Adam Smith, his business manager, filled with a yearning for home life and a wife, especially one like Eva; Marian Snyder as Eva King, his charming and attractive younger daughter, whose affections are sought by three suitors: Kenneth Cloukey as Lord Andrew Gordon. the son of a Scotch peer, who divides his love between horses and Eva; Joe Heffron as Clinton de W itt. Kingâs worthless and idle son-in-law, a sponger and a parasite, but in love with both his clothes and his wife: Kathryn King as Julie de Witt, King's elder daughter, devoted to Clinton and her own selfish pleasure, and last but not least, Maurice Norcross as Dr. Jack Delameter. Kingâs neighbor, as a young physician in love with Eva and in particular her fatherâs money. That is the cast, a dandy bunch of stars. Third, was the thorough and untiring work of the many committees on properties, costumes, finance, publicity, staging, ushers, candy and (with special praise) the stage crew each of whom were under faculty sponsorship. The direction, the cast and the committees, plus the excellent work of the Lansdowne High School orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Don B. Corbin, made âAdam and Evaâ a great hit. The plot, which satirized wealthy men who are invariably surrounded by many parasite relatives, was concerned with Mr. King's efforts to curb his familyâs extravagance and idleness. When he went away and left Adam Smith his general manager, in charge of his family, unfortunate circumstances forced the family to go to work. King returned to find not only all his family working but his younger daughter deeply in love with Adam, naturally, and so they lived happily ever after. fhe plot was cleverly constructed and engagingly staged the settings typical, the costuming perfect, the dialogue witty and clear, the atmosphere charming and the characterization flawless. The Class of 1934 feels that in the triumphal performance of âAdam and Evaâ they have left Lansdowne High a heritage of one of the finest senior plays ever produced. 72 Mathematics Club CHESS CLUB MATH CLUB Tin: Chess Club, sponsored by Miss Mary McAllister, has about twenty active members, who hold their meetings on Mondays and Wednesdays during the winter months. Once each week a team of five meets at one of the schools belonging to the Suburban Chess League, of which Lans-downe Chess Club is one of the seven members. The scores of the contests held at the various schools are kept by a general secretary. Likewise, games are played with several other schools not in the league. The players take an active interest in the game, because they feel that besides developing their powers of concentration. it is a game that will make leisure time enjoyable. This yearâs officers are: Alfred Leber, president of the home club, and Robert Ware, president of the league club. ALL juniors and seniors electing the full course in mathematics automatically become members of the Math Club, meetings of which are held during the last part of the period on Friday, under the supervision of Miss Mary McAllister. Fach class has its separate chapter. and each chapter meeting is presided over by its own officer. Sam Felix is the president of the combined chapters. As the purpose of the club is to increase interest in mathematics and to learn its practical application, the main topics of discussion, this year, have been the process of the slide rule and studies of various vocations. According to the usual custom, new books will be added to the Math library, which now contains almost one hundred books. 7?. Chess Ci.ub Surveying Club SURVEYING CLUB STAGE CREW STARTED as an extra-curricular club under the Math Club in 1926 and advanced to an elective class in February, 1930, the Surveying Club is now hoping, rather furtively, to make surveying a major course. There is a real need, as Mr. John Tammeryn realized when he founded the club, for a pre-engineering preparation for college courses and for a practical application of our high school mathematics. The work is varied as well as highly instructive. The uses of the logarithm tables, trigonometry tables, and the slide rules are taught as well as actual surveying and the use of instruments. In the junior year chain surveying and the essentials of the transit are the main course, while the seniors do more difficult kinds of surveying. DL E to the faithful eff orts of the stage crew, under the leadership of Dan Hoffman and sponsored by Mr. Carl Hurlock, the people of Lansdowne and vicinity were able to view excellent stage scenes and properties in both ââSeventeenâ and the senior play âAdam and Evaâ. In addition to these plays the stage crew was prominent (behind the curtain I in all the one act plays in assembly. Also what would the school dances have done without the suggestions and assistance of the stage crew in decorations and lighting?

Yearbook The most important method of printing is the letterpress or relief surface method. The plate or form prints from the raised portions; the sunken parts, not being inked, represent the white portions of the printed matter. term printing on the part of newly elected editors and business managers is often similar to the above encyclopedia definition. That explanation is true, but it is merely one of several factors upon which the selection of a yearbook service agreement for printing should be based. One phase of the interpretation of yearbook printing by Lyon and Armor means creating a book with an individual personality through injecting the purpose and feeling behind the volume into the finished layout. Excellence in yearbook printing depends not only on expert press-work, but to a large extent is attributable to the proper execution of typography and layout. The creative spirit injected in the 1934 set of Lyon and Armor produced books has destroyed the monotony which is so detrimental to the popular acceptance of most annuals.
