Carlton Ab- bott, Principal of Lansdowne High School. lt is with the greatest regret that l see your class leave our high school. l feel that it has been my very good fortune to have known you. Your unselfish efforts have produced a splendid record of achievements. As life unfolds before you, it will be full of many opportunities that can be seized only if you give as freely of yourselves as you have in the past. Do this and my wish of happiness for you always will be fulfilled. S. N. EWAN, IR. Dr. S. N. Ewan, Ir., l Superintendent of Lansdowne schools. l-low quickly these four years have gone! Only yesterday, it seems, you were small boys and girlseimpulsive young- sters from Iunior High, now you're leav- ing us-young men and women. During this period, you have had an opportunity to learn many things: the cultures of the past, the sciences of the present, the hopes of the future. Life holds a variety of experiences for all of you. Fate may bring rich or sordid ones, but what you do will determine the nature of most of them. These experi- ences, how you interpret them, and how you react to them are your real final examination. The work you make is Your Life. E. CARLTON ABBOTT. 8 cm ,. L7 - Our School: Dedicated to teaching the art of living well. During the years spent in Lansdowne High School, you probably have met heartache and failure as you have met success and approval. They come to most of us in the process of growing up. You have shared honors with compan- ions and responsibilities with acquaint- ances which have given you a keener sense of understanding, tolerance for another point of view, and thus made you a liner person. That your high school lite has prepared you to meet people, to influence them, and to have them bring out the best in you is my sincere wishi HELEN BRICKELL. m,.,,.vf ' iss Helen Brickell, Former Dean of Girls, Lansdowne High School.

However, even though the old order has Changed to some extent, the pictures on the accompanying pages will show that we still devote much time to reading and writing in our foreign language, English, and history departments and that we give ample doses of Math in our Algebra, Geometry, and Trig classes. Moreover, daily there is enacted a stirring human drama. History supplies pageantry with the birth of kings and nations, the death of heroes, and time marching on. There is violence in Math Where theorems are, at times, murdered. ln language Classes, the element of mystery appears as weird nouns and weirder verbs baffle the unfortunate students, IO MMG ,,..,, Aw w 1 ..,..l,., fm 7 Q 423 -- if K Q, , .

Wilcox The spell of science soon weaves itself about our students until the odors of hydrogen sul- phide, blended obnoxiously with sulphur dioxf ide become an essential part ot their existence. The lab is a retreat from boredom, with its explosions, colorful lab coats, smoke, tire, and steam. lnstructors Kleckner, Wardrop and Hand watch their pupils' progress, perhaps with the hope that they may one day become Curies or Pasteurs. Equally as interested in stu- dent development are our commercial teachf ers, Mr. Kraber, Mrs. Petty, and Mr. Kramer. Tiresome hours spent with noisy typewriters and the deciphering ol Shorthand are repaid by the thought that they are supplying the business world with competent business men and secretaries. ir r click as Mr. Kramer Mr. Kraber, Science Studied Scientitically by Mr. Hand, Mr. Ward- and Mrs Petty cooperate. rop, and Mr Kleckner. 4 A typical assembly where students eagerly congregate, hoping for a long program to shorten classes, During the past year, we have been fortu- nate in having many assemblies so outstanding as to be long-remembered. Most fascinating and educational Was the Franklin Institute Chemistry Exhibition, in which the demonstra- tor performed many magic feats. ln addition to splendid dramatic, athletic, and musical entertainments of our own, We have enjoyed many interesting exchange programs, such as: the play presented by Lower Merion, the band concert by Collingdale, and the combined Hav- erford and Lansdowne orchestras.

Sell-reliance, good citizenship and sportsmanship are learned best, not in classrooms, but in gyms, work- shops, and home economics rooms with which L. l-l. S. is so amply blessed. Thus, in the wood and metal shops, and in the drawing room, boys learn, under the able supervision ot Mr. Tammeryn and Mr. Hersh, to begin a worth- while project and see it through to completion. ln gym, sports, and hygiene classes, Mr. Hor- ner and Miss Allen lay the foundation tor a healthy body.

However, the music and art classes do more than this, for in the art room pupils of Miss Davis are given an opportunity to express themselves with brush and pen, While students, under the supervision of Mr. Corbin are given a chance to satisfy any musical inclinations they have, either in the several chorus classes, or by playing in the band or orchestra. ln the library which is in charge of Miss Sheafer, students may make advantageous use of the well-stocked book shelves and magazine rack.

Some slide into first base in front of the school in their Model T, pulling the brakes and mak- ing a dash for Home Room as the fatal bell stops ringing. However, the unfortunates who have to run the mile, grab their breakfast on the way out of the house and get to school in time to gather their books and chat in Home Room for a few minutes before the late bell rings. We find only a few early birds who Wait at the door for the janitors.

H. S. at 8:32 every Tuesday morning. Mr. Abbott has made an important an- nouncement, and George Pechstein has just finished introducing Alice Selby who has charge of the de- votionals. She will read a selection from the Bible and will lead the audience in the Lord's Prayer and Flag Salute, before the program of safety movies. The final heartbreak comes with the leader's an- nouncement: Assembly is now dismissed. Harriet Rebecca Dresnick, 831 Baltimore Ave., E. Lansdowne.

The studious expres- sions on the faces of these busy seniors have a good reason for being there. Rittenhouse, Haldt, Harding, Olewine, Goeller, and Weinstein Cselecting a book1 are busy trying to tiriish their theses for chemistry or physics, a very difficult job with the Washington trip and Easter vacation being uppermost in every- one's mind to the exclusion of all work.

Stampeding friends ruthlessly under- foot, they sprint to lockers under the impression that they are track stars. Some tramp off in response to special invitations from fond teachers5 others tramp off to meet fond . . . er . , . friends in some quiet corner of the hall where they are sure to bump into Peggy and Bill. Art committees rush to and fro doing their best to foster the idea that the attic is overrun with mice.

' . -,gllnl .b04JJz,inq, Gala, Midst a downpour of raindrops, fond farewells, and the comments of envious underclassmen, the Greyhound buses set out for Washington, loaded with over a hundred jubilant seniors, After a stop at Conowingo, where the huge turbines deafened even the chatter of the travelers, and a pleasant luncheon at the Lord Baltimore Hotel, we rolled into Washington, Our reception was a most cordial one, for the clouds rolled back and the sun shone forth in all its glory just as we started past the legations and embas- sies on the way to the beautiful Gothic Cathedral at Mount St Albans. Because of our generous contributions a stone was placed in the Cathedralg thus bring- ing it one step nearer completion At the Franciscan Monastery we were con- ducted through the catacombs which had been built in imitation of those in Homo. As we passed through the quaint old town of Alexandria, we had an excellent opportunity to appreciate the cherry blossoms in full bloom around the Tidal Basin. At Mount Vernon on tho grounds hallowed not only by George Washington but by many former Lansdowne Senior classes, our group picture was taken, Then the candid camera fiends got busy and despite the precautions of many subjects most of their pictures were obviously unposed. Our sightseeing continued with a visit to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, where we were fascinated by the G Men, There we were shown the records of many notorious criminals and were told many harrowing tales about the various exhibits. We should like to have heard more, but climbing up the Wash- ington Monument, visiting the White f-louse, and gazing longingly at the bqeniaw ta Cfafa,L6c1,Z stacks of crisp money in the Bureau of Printing and Engraving made us eager to get to the theater and the soothing strains of Kay Kyser's orchestra. When he mentioned the fact that the senior class from Lansdowne High School was in the audience, he received our hearty applause. After such extensive sight- seeing and several hours of dancing to the nickelodeon some of us had a vague idea of sleeping. But those who tried to carry it out were doomed to failure. lt was out of the question. No sooner would some stalwart drop off to sleep than he would be rudely awak- ened to find someone telling him in a jovial tone that he was asleep. How- ever, wakeful nights did not affect our appetites. On the contrary, it increased them so that our waitresses were kept busy supplying pitchers of milk, bas- kets of rolls, and bacon and eggs for our hungry horde. The last day of our trip after leaving the Smithsonian Insti- tute we rolled on to Annapolis, leisurely sipping chocolate milk. Annapolis was greeted by the girls with shouts of de- light. As we left Annapolis, lupiter Pluvius began his attack and bom- barded us continually and without ceas- ing all the way to Lansdowne. Once again the Washington trip was over. Everyone acquitted himself nobly and it is hoped that we did not give our chaperone-s, Miss Allen, Mrs. Barnes, Mr. Abbott, and Mr. Kraber, too much trouble. Miss Sheafer, our class ad- visor, was unfortunately unable to ac- company us due to illness, and her place was taken by Miss Allen. in retrospect, we find that it was the gay- est, happiest and most interesting trip ever enjoyed by any Senior Class.

As the name ot each new Student Council member was sole ernnly read, that boy or girl who was a leader ot some organ- ization rose and gave a short talk about it. The talks were in- teresting, particularly to new students hearing about the ore ganizations tor the tirst time. The program drew to the point where Mr, Abbott was to hand the gavel, the symbol ot the presidency, to Edwin McCausland. After receiving it, he thanked the students tor the honor they had bestowed upon him and he clearly indicated the ambitious program which lay ahead tor the Student Council members. ff' xXH 6f6 A Q52 XS?--It Hi it -'T' we ms g Lett ot Picture Lett to Bight --Back Bow: Bapp, Bonyai, Hale, Craig, Cordier, Cook Franz, Brackin Front How.

S. stage slowly opens to reveal the inauguration ot the newly elected members ot the National Honor Society. The feeling ot anxiety hovers over the luniors and Seniors as they sit on the edge ot their seats and strain their ears in order to hear their names it they should happen to be called. Freshmen and Sophomores sit in awe as they dream ot the certain day that they too may become meme bers ot this honorary organization. Although they know some will succeed in winning this high honor, they also realize others will be disappointed as a member not only must have a high scholastic standing in the class, but also must show leadership, service and character as well. At last, the long awaited moment has arrived when the names ot the newly chosen members are read. One by one, rising from their seats, they walk nervously but happily to their places on the stage.

Even the most gloomy and dreary day was brightened by the appearance of our garnet and gray clad lads jauntily marching on the field, led by their competent drum major, Lee Cordier, arrayed in his regal white uniform. Likewise, the crowd is always entertained between halves by the formation of the letters of the visiting school's name, clearly planned by Mr, Corbin, who is just as efficient a band-master as he is an orchestra leader. Besides their various football activities, the following are a few of their additional performances. The group traveled to Collingdale for a return assembly after their band entertained us so grandly a short time before, The band made up one-third of the program for the music festival, from which a part of the proceeds is to be used for additional band uniforms, While speaking of profits, we should remember Thanksgiving Day as Alumni Band Day, when tags were sold to raise extra money. Individual seniors who should be commended for their outstanding work are Betty Laws, bassoonist, and Frank Lonergan, clarinetist, who had the honor of being selected as members of the All-State Band. fwhinli 55 MA , the mudxlc makew T110 A C1'11'1Qllf1 Cl111111s: l111:a 11011111110 111111 111 l.1111:21111w1111 l'l111l1 fS1'l11111l'f: 11111111 widely 11CCl111111r1d 111'111111111i111111119.

The plot concerned itself with the relationship between modern children and their parents. The former played by Marius Haayen and Gertrude Wooten, re- belled against too strict discipline, contending that parents who could not control their own emotions had no right to tyrannize over their children. The father CWilliam Raniseyl and the mother Clflaine Livingstonl, with their continual bickering ruined their own lives as well as those ot their son and daughter. Earlier in the year the Senior Drainatics Class presented a comedy, Saved, with an all-girl cast. The theine was old age versus love with love, in the person of Betty Laws, triumphant. Obstacles were furnished by a man-hating Aunt Clvlary Berlinj and some stutty old gossips Clviarianne Donohoe, Helen Haldt and Barbara Ann Burtl. However, the obstacles were removed, tiguratively, ot course, by a tenderehearted Aunt, played by Marjorie Walters. The play was particularly enjoyable to many in the audience because it is studied in the Iunior English classes, and many less expert have tried to interpret the roles in classroom dramatizations. 59 V54- Qinefzg, Qfcmnted Ln, Sfadfnian Sfiedia Pacing gracefully, turning slowly, preening their tinery in justitiable pride, the gueen ot fashion with her court and stu' dents from the clothing and art departments presented in their lashion parade costumes old and new, many of which were their own Creations.

Through good times and bad our coaches work with unremitting energy and enthusiasm. Miss Sally Allen, coach of girls' sports, led the field piloting her girls through an undefeated basketball season and by coaching the most successful hockey team of Lansdowne High. The boys' freshman basketball team proved worthy of their coach, Mr. Stanley Kleckner, by becoming Delco champions in the Kiwanis tournament. However, the boys' varsity and lay-Vee did riot fare so well but were ably coached by Mr. Harold Kramer. The school spirit which backed up our football teams was a great help to Mr. Smith, Mr. Wardrop, and Mr. Kramer in coaching the squads. Mr, Herbert Horner brought his matmen through a very successful season finishing third in the Suburban Wrestling League. When the wrestling season was ended he stepped immediately into baseball practice. Mr. Lincoln Atkiss, with the assistance of Mr. Lowe, brought his trackmen through a rigid schedule in which victory played an important part. Mr, William Lowe ably coached his soccer team through a rather good season which incidentally was the last year that soccer will be on our sports roster. Mr. B. Wycliffe Griffin's fine coaching, along with his experienced players, made the tennis season one to be proud of. , On the whole, Lansdowne's athletic season was one to remember with its many outstanding victories for which the painstaking efforts of the coaches were largely responsible. -. 4Q X Xt 8 4 .Y 14 ,Ap 'U' 0 Q A 5 f , 'tr' f i , 5- f ' 'H 1- .'

Many other schools com- mented on the splendid cooperation be- tween the allfgirl team, headed by the constant trio, lune Pizor, Peggy Wood, and Doris Trainer. Miss Lindenmuth, the coach of the cheerleaders, says that this year's team did the finest Work of any team in recent years. The other girls who helped unity the team and spectators were Mary Mullen, Vivian Neisser, Dot l-lyland, Betty Ann Clayes, and Barbara Williams. There was one game which almost proved to be a season saver. This was the Upper Darby game, a battle from the beginning to end, and the bigger Upper Darby boys really knew that they had been in a fight when the final whistle blew. There were two other games which were hard fought and were interesting to the spectators, They were the Yeadon game tplayed in a driving rainstorml and the Thanksgiving Day game With Swarthe more. We were within inches of a touch- down several times during the season, but the score never materialized. ln a brief resume we find that had it not been for the praiseworthy efforts of most of the boys, the score against us might have piled even higher. Among those deserving of special mention are: Bill Bichards, who played quarterback in a tireless and spirited fashion, Sander Weinstein, the most daring among the players and one who caught every punt, and Tony Travaligni, little but a mountain on defense. These players and others, such as Schwern, Gardner, Cochran, Bud- loff, Cryer, and Morrison Ccaptained by Bill Richards and Bill Harding? played a keen, quick game under the guidance of Mr. D Malcolm Smith, their coach.

By the end of the season the Garnet and Gray quintet had accumulated 497 points to 536 by opponents, and had defeated Upper Darby, Haverford, Chester, Radnor teach oncel and Abington twice. Coach Harold Kramer decided in favor of George Liddell, who received honorable mention for the All-Suburban team, and Eddie Thompson, Lansdowne's high scorer and third in the League, for the most valuable player award. The lay-Vee team won but one of their contests, a 25-19 battle with Abington at home. Laurels for the exceptional record of the season go to the Frosh squad, coached by Mr, Stanley H. Kleckner. These mighty midgets came out on top in ten of their twelve tussles, and completed the season with a total point tally of 252 accomplished by, and 183 endured. In return for their successful efforts the lads received Gold Medals awarded by the Kiwanis Association.

Last, but far from the least important forward was lule, the other half of the twins, who through her passing and floor work kept the Lansdowne score soaring higher. The three very important girls who succeeded in keeping the opponents from scoring were Peggy Wood, Marge Fox, and Bobbie Hampel, As center guard, Peg Wood was superb in covering the territory under the basket, Our left guard, Marge Fox, was the girl who surprised her oppo- nents when they least expected it by intercepting passes and breaking up plays. Bobbie Hampel, Lansdowne's speedy right guard, did a fine job helping Marge and worrying our rivals. Miss Allen, coach of this fine team, is proud of the girls and her work in coaching them throughout the undefeated season. Besides this, Miss Allen is boasting that her team is the only entire one represented on the all-scholastic girls' squads for 1939. 70 Badkefeem l3Jz,Lng Hama La .

The isauad numbered sixtyftwo, the largest we have had in many years and consisted chiefly of freshmen and sophomores Co-Captain Weinrztein, Rogers, Garesche and Sturgis upheld Lans- downe's reputation for great sprinters, while Smyrl, Patterson, and Lippincott as freshmen were groomed to take their places next year. Ramsay and Hale excelled in the 440. Duncan and Muth did good work in the 880. Helms set the pace in the mile. Corby and Co-Captain Liddell were among the best high jumpers in the suburbs Promising weight men coached by Mr. Lowe were: R. Finn, L Smith, Price, l. Finn, De Stephane, O'Rourke, and Lyster. Myers, D l-tupp, and W. Smith looked good in the pole vault. The Rupp twins held forth in the hurdles. Other promising material included Rebstock, Busler, Barlow, Redford, lohnson Benson, Donovan, Seal, Warner, lenks, and Good This year for the first time instruction 11nd opportunity for practice in field events were offered in the aym classes as an alternative to playing soft ball. Many boys took advantage of this, and as a result much interest in track was aroused, and some new material uncovered that should help to strengthen the team in future years Loft to Right How Ono Donovan, Benson D Rupp, Corby, Muth, Rogers Gardener, Collum, Finoccio, Colehower, Loneraan, Duncan, Helms, Pow Two Lippincott, Patterson, Rebstock, Barlow, Seal, Ramsay, Smith, O'Rourke, Buster, Scott, H.

There were however, surprisingly few seniors on the squad, but among the regulars were: Bill Richards, lrvin Rank, and Bill Schwem with Donald Braun and Bill Gross substituting when necessary. The outstanding underclassmen were: lack Goeller, Bill Smyrl, and Ed Fennerty. The latter, as pitcher, ably kept up his record of last year when he pitched two no-hit games. Besides these three juniors, there were six sophomore boys: Don Byles, lim Hallman, lim McCully, Ioe Finn, Arthur Hulme, and Bob Rank, There was only one freshman who was a regular on the varsity, and that was lim Spike Gray. Bill Richards was appointed Captain of the team and ably filled his position as catcher by preventing many runs being scored by our oppo- nents. As substitute catcher, Don Byles did his share of the work, In addition to Ed Fennerty there were other able pitchers, such as lim Hallman, and two coming up from the Freshman ranks-Bob Verrall and Art MacDowell. Starting practice early and drilling hard throughout the year, this somewhat green team showed a fight and spirit in its games that was productive of results. The loyal bleachers saw games well worth the seeing. This year our baseball team was in a more difficult league than last year. Opponents such as Lower Merion and Abington offered stiff corn- petition. Despite this our ball club held its own and made a quite satis- factory showing. The fact that so many of the players are from the lower classes is predictive of even better seasons to come. The freshman team had a full schedule of games and made a good record in them, coming off with several striking victories. Many of these boys give promise of assuring Lansdowne of strong teams in the future.
