Lansdowne has been building both visibly and in- visibly, developing not only superior physical facil- ities for its students but also a fine reputation. Both individuals and organizations have been attempting to keep up with the ever changing World and with competitors who, it seems, have in turn tried to outdo them. years we have been board temporaryn modernly equipped elementary school, that can put most of our competitors to shame, has replaced them. The new junior high wing and attractively painted classrooms in the rest ofthe high school are in line with the latest ideas in school planning. For example, because for many ashamed of the so-called card- buildings, a most up-to-date, lVloreover, no longer will our supporters at athletic events have to sit on ancient wooden grantlstands. Now we have a new concrete stadium, a fitting memorial to honor those former Lansdowne stu- dents who sacrificed their lives for us. Every school has some features of which it is extra proud. In Lansdowne, one of these is the Superb record of its publications, The Lalzifzn and The Garnet anfl Gray. Under the excellent guid- ance of Mr. Louis Gt-rshman, The Lalzian has been awarded the UAH Americanu for twelve consecu- tive years, the Columbia Nledalist for eight and top Pennsylvania QPSPAJ. Likewise, The Garnet and Gray, a monthly newspaper, has also captured many honors. Also, under the supervision of Miss Martha Hartman, we have produced Srrihhlrrs, lnh and our handbook. - Van Zanill, M. Sznirh, J. Ste1'ens, H. Lrnhartll, R. lVlat'h, ll. Bzzrhanan D. Zehler R.

The highlight of the fall sports award assembly was the announcement that the girls' hockey team would receive white sweaters as a result of their undefeated season. This was the first time since 1941 that the girls had had the experience of going through a season without having a rival school triumph over them. That was not only keeping up with competitorsg it was outstripping them. Like- wise, the Lansdowne Lords were second in the district with a mighty fine foothall team that won seven of its nine games. YVe are continuing to uphold our good reputa- tion by cooperating with the Civil Defense program. VVhile the boys learn fire-fighting and the girls gain a knowledge of home nursing, the faculty concen- trate on First Aid. YVhen we consider scholastic attainments, very few of our competitors can excel us. It is not unusual for at least one of our graduates to lead his or her class in college. Une has heen the first in the history of his school to he named the most outstanding memher of his class for three years in succession. XVith records like these, can we he hlamed for being proud of our school?
