LAHIAN 1958 LANSDOWNE-ALDAN HIGH SCHOOL LANSDOWNE, PENNSYLVANIA ox savojo jooips JnQ i .. . And So Do We Plants cannot mature unless their roots pro- vide them with the nutriments of life. We, the students of Lansdowne-Aldan High School, are the roots of our school; reciprocally, our school is our main life line. As the school grows, we grow, as we grow, the school so grows. As we grow up and become a little wiser, we realize how our lives have been immeasurably affected by school influences. Since our early days as seventh graders, we have worked, we have laughed, and sometimes we have cried— and little by little our personalities have matured just as our bodies have grown to adult size. Our school life is to us more than a necessity: it is an opportunity. Because we have discov- ered new values and interests, life in general is more adventurous and enriching. We are not only maturing but increasing in number. To provide for increased enrollment, two new wings are being added, including a gymnasium, a home economics suite, an art de- partment, and music rooms. Students have eagerly watched this building process from the classroom windows and look forward proudly to occupying their new facilities.

Of course, these innocent glances belong to the seventh graders. At first, there is much confu- sion in the school: clanging of bells, throngs of noisy pupils, accumulating books, and never- ending questions. But these under-classmen meet the oncoming challenge with all the eager- ness and vitality their early teens can muster. Soon confusion is pushed aside and in its place stands the characteristic trait of all seventh graders—exuberance. During these early years, seventh graders cannot help feeling excited. New emotions and interests just seem to overwhelm them. Friend- ships spurred on by their outgoing personalities are made with other students as well as with teachers. Interests of all sorts bound them on every side. Many of these young people turn their energies to useful channels. Clubs and other organizations welcome new interest. The Music Department gladly encourages budding young musicians, and the Junior High J. V. sports teams owe many victories to their eager seventh graders. Similarly, the eighth graders have earned their place in the high school. The feelings of confu- sion have passed away and in their place stands a new problem the process of growing up. The preliminary period is over and these young people begin climbing the ladder mentally and socially in their search for maturity. In the classroom, teachers guide their students through the paths of knowledge and wisdom. Pupils learn more and more every day not only about others but also about themselves. Through various inter- ests, activities, and clubs, eighth graders pursue their natural curiosity and also begin to show interest in each other. When this new awareness sprouts up, these young folks start to mature because they begin to understand one another as well as themselves. Checking information at the office is an important job for B. Leonard, B. Buchic and T. Hudson as Miss M. Mundell looks on. Good manners arc in order for D. Boyd as he helps .. Laughton on with her coat, proving to M. Long and T. Hood that chivalry is not yet dead. A word puzzle helps to strengthen the vocabulary of B. Brown, R. Betz, and T. Westman. In Our Early High School Days Social Studies charts are very helpful to S. Valentine, T. Fetter, K. Stein, J. DcBaecke, G. Robinson, and P. Pitts. D. Henry points out to P. Hargrave and N. Fachinetti that the date for the Valentine's Dance is drawing nearer. 7 Students in our school library realize that finding the right book isn't always the easiest job unless they are acquainted with library science. Daily Challenges Help Us To Mature We’ve come a long way during these six years, and yet we are old enough to know that we have a much greater distance ahead of us. After having enjoyed our “carefree days of youth,” we take a look at the world around us and hope to find a place for ourselves. Also looking backward, we hope to see a contribution which we have made to the growth of the school. Our teachers, clubs, and dances are to us symbols of the anxious hearts of those who are behind us in this period of growing up. By contrasting the study halls of the upperclass- men to those of the junior high, one can easily see that we have achieved a seriousness of pur- pose. Even though we have had many good times in these years, we anticipate eagerly the day when we will take places in the adult world. P.

Millis, I). Faix, and C. Sock think twice before they answer such a difficult question. “Why do we study math and science?” wonder many inquisitive high school students. l or those who want to enter the challenging realms of science and engineering, this question is certainly obvious. However, for those who have not yet mapped out their future, this question involves a careful look into the fascinating and stimulat- ing aspects of science and math. Mathematics, including algebra, geometry, and trigonometry, helps pupils to gain a foothold in reasoning logically and drawing sound con- clusions, an invaluable asset to any industrious individual. Physics, with an eye to the future, gives all students a firm basis for understanding the intriguing principles of satellites and rockets, which seem to dominate today’s headlines. Biology, which reveals the wonders of a mysteri- ous environment in the plant and animal king- dom, offers a vital challenge to inquisitive young minds. Chemistry revolves around the composi- tion of surroundings and its practical application by students to everyday life. In our science and math classes, pupils seem- ingly change today’s mysteries into tomorrow’s common knowledge. Someday, they hope to apply this learning in a beneficial manner, whether it be in business, industry or home- making. Let's take a peek inside! B. Terrier and J.

Perkis, C. Martin, and N. Kelly. . fiss Hartman's Sophomore English class listens atten- tively as J. Gaskill, reports on the life of Charles Dickens as a part of their study of the “Tale of Two Cities.” A knowledge of the read in’ n ritin’ our grand- parents learned in school is no longer sufficient to earn for us a place in the world of today. We are growing up in an age in which a more com- prehensive mastery of the English language is required. Students have studied the essentials of lan- guage by the time they enter high school, so that, as sophomores, they arc ready to delve into the fine points of literature. Their first taste of the classics comes with the reading of Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables. This is followed by a study of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. As juniors they follow the development of our nation’s culture via a history of American literature. Seniors devote their time to becoming familiar with the great British authors who have influenced our lives and our cultural growth. In conjunction with their study of drama, many seniors saw prod net ions of Shaw’s St. Joan, Shakespeare’s As You Like It and Julius Caesar, and O’Neill’s Long Day's Journey Into the Night. Day by day we are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of being multi-lingual. In their freshman year, students supplement their English studies with an introductory foreign language of their choice. They become familiar with our South American neighbors through a study of Spanish. Those who select French improve their pronunciation after hear- ing tape recordings of their own voices. Some students choose the Latin tongue, the foundation for all languages. It is believed that a study of Latin improves their English vocabularies and acquaints them with ancient Roman civilization. As we hurry along the road to adulthood and maturity, we benefit greatly from a study of any language, furthering our education and broaden- ing our horizons. 14 Self-Expression Learning English vocabulary words can be as hard as learning a foreign language. B. Ingram. M. List, and S. Ileeren practice building their vocabularies with the game of scrabble. The value of increasing your vocabulary is pointed out by S. Macintosh to his classmates W. Marshall, M. Currall, M. Ware, C. Adrian, B. Trueman, H Fleming, B. Thompson, R. Ewing, C. Mason and F. Andrews. A gab session has priority over the card catalogue for B. Winstead, B. Braun, and X. Kelly as they talk over school affairs. Principles of first year French are explained by Mrs. M. Lord to stu- dents J. Krebs and R. Herrin in a stipendsed study. A n interesting glimpse of Roman life awaits C. Atkiss and D. Snyder as Miss M. Cook shows them one of her famous Roman books. 15 We Try to Sift Propaganda from J.

Are we headed for War? Is Kruschev merely' a shrewd propagandist who knows how to play- on simple minds? To become better acquainted with world problems, the World Affairs classes visited the United Nations Organization this fall. This trip helped them visualize the steps which our peacemakers are try ing to take. Many of the problems and questions which were discussed among world statesmen were carried back to the classroom for student study. Seniors investi- gated systems of governments throughout the world and considered the advantages and disad- vantages of each. American history classes played an active part in several forum programs. Through these activities and debates, juniors were maturing in critically analyzing America’s place in this The coldest section of Pennsylvania is pointed out, in Civics class, by L. Stewart to his classmates J. Haslett, T. Becker, and N. Craven. The Boston Tea Party becomes a very real event to A. Fritchie, D. Waters and J.

Students in all social studies classes are in- terested in youth’s reaction throughout the world. W hat about Russian youth? Are they taught to want to improve conditions in their homeland and throughout the world? Are they much different from us? Growing up is measured by deeper under- standing. Interest in internal and external problems broadens with every social studies course to which our students is introduced. It can truly be pointed out that Lansdowne-Aldan youth, as a result of conscientious direction of informed teachers, are beyond average in their grasp of intercontinental problems. The strange architecture in the Betsy Ross House fascinates J. Bair, B. Hunter, . Schoenstadt, and D. Morrell. A re you a future surveyerf B.

In the efficient, businesslike atmosphere of the commercial department, where the rhythmic clap of typewriters and other office machines re- sounds, future businessmen learn the funda- mentals of their career. Freshmen and sophomores plow through gen- eral business courses, while juniors and seniors may choose a secretarial, clerical or distributive education course. Included in the secretarial curriculum are office training, typing, stenog- raphy, and bookkeeping. Clerical courses con- sist of commercial math, office training, typing, bookkeeping, salesmanship and business law. Distributive Education, an example of co- 18 to Our Own Lives Attractive toys are examined by A. White, J. Hatter field, and C.

The distribu- tive education majors or “DE’s,” directed by Miss Mildred Ankeny, attend morning classes, then work in the afternoon. Many academic students, as well as commer- cial, attend typing and shorthand classes, since these subjects are immediately practical and possibly will be invaluable in the future. Xot necessarily bound to the classroom, busi- ness students frequently visit nearby plants, of- fices and factories to observe actual business operations. These trips are very important to their understanding of the business world. Mrs. Woods demonstrates the office binding machine to I. Hi otta. L. Ealough and J. Wilson. Officers of the FBLA, G. Dohney, X. List, M. Sharrah, and I. Myers receive a certificate of merit as Sponsor Mrs. J. Feller looks on with pride. C. Park, P. Smalley and A.

Homemaking Can Be Fun Nothing will stretcli a girl's clothes allowance so much as being able to make her own clothes and to project herself into the future of her children. And what girl doesn’t like to show off with a new recipe learned in cooking? Students enrolled in the Practical Arts courses serve at the numerous teas, luncheons, and dinners sponsored by various school organiza- tions. For example, dressed in spotless white coats, the boys' class proudly served luncheon for visiting superintendents. Dainty sandwiches and cookies were the order for the Honor Society tea and the five teas given w'ith other principals and faculty managers as guests. Under the watchful eyes of Miss Virginia Briner and Miss Mary Milheim, both boys’ and girls’ food classes learn how to concoct delicious dishes in the wink of an eye and how' to serve at teas and dinners with the poise of experienced waiters and waitresses. Turning tempting recipes into appealing platters is not the only boast of these young chefs, for they also learn to operate automatic washers, dryers, ironers—use- ful knowledge for other phases of home-making. Home Economics courses for girls are indis- pensable. Sewing class offers a “make while you learn” course, with special projects in the fields of textiles, interior decorating fashions and color schemes. Good grooming and personality rounds out the busy curriculum. In both sewing and cooking classes, students realize the need for mastery of techniques. After successfully com- pleting this inclusive schedule, pupils can rightly consider themselves competent in several impor- tant phases of home economics. Working diligently on tlicir sewing projects, K. Park, K. Miller, and H. Christy take ad- vantage of the school facilities. R. Phillips proudly displays a life- like portrait which she made of a friend to P. Schmucker. 20 What will it taste like? C. Febbo concocts a new recipe for chocolate sauce. J. Harper and A.

Campbell observes. 21 What sort of design will come from J. Hinkle, P. Edwards, and B. Algard's pattern? It's anybody's guess. Handicrafts Help To Ease Tension Manual Arts opens the door to a fascinating occupation and to an enjoyable hobby. Whether it paves the way to a future career, or whether it just offers many happy hours of recreation, laymen as well as educators agree that it serves a worthwhile purpose. Enthusiastic young lads eagerly learn from Mr. Joseph Pastelak and Mr. Clarence Prietz how to use tools to their l est advantage. .Skill in wood shop and metal shop eventually strikes a happy opportunity for creatively-inclined boys to design a project of their own liking. Other projects, under the expert guidance of Mr. Armand Freas, are formulated in mechanical drawing class by prospective young engineers. In this exciting and challenging field of creative arts, there is an ever increasing need for ambitious young people. In our school, the Industrial Arts Department has met this need in various ways. Junior high lx ys are required to take manual courses, while senior high pupils may choose from wood shop, metal shop and mechanical drawing. In past years, talented students have exhibited their fine contributions to the Ford Industrial Arts Contest. This year, Edward Lentz proudly displayed his unusual mirror in the competition. . .

The newest stride for improvement, an addi- tion to the high school building, is under construc- tion after much careful planning by Superintend- ent of Schools Dr. E. Carlton Abbott, Principal Joseph D. Moore, and Administrative Assistant Wayne A. Klinger. Juniors and seniors are indebted to Miss Mary E.

The comparative studies of science education in Russian and American schools have put our Science Department to work on ways of improv- ing the courses and stimulating new interest in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, physical science, and general science. Mr. McClure, Miss Dow, Mr. Rank, and our new biology instructors. Miss St rout and Mr. Miller, make up the faculty of this department. We learn to “parler” in French, Latin, and Spanish. Along with the actual language, the cultures and literature of the countries are presented to us. Mrs. Lord instructs the gay Parisiens, Miss Cook the Romans, and Miss Adams the Spaniards. Reading and ‘riting are “learned” us by Miss McCullough. Mrs. Christ, Miss Hartman, Mr. Laubach, Mr. Gershman, Mr. Duncan, Mrs. Long, and Mrs. Farnath. We not only delve into the fundamentals of grammar but also explore the adventurous world of literature. With the background of world history taught by Mr. Snyder; social studies, by Miss Vart and Mr. Spafford; civics, by Mrs. Everest and Mr. Miller, and American history, by Miss St rale y and Mr. McCafferty, we are ready to understand the problems of our democracy and other coun- tries that we read about in the headlines. The climax of our understanding of history is pre- sented to us in World Affairs by Mr. Richards in our senior year. Arithmetic develops into the more advanced courses of Algebra I of Mrs. Morris and Mrs. Edwards, Algebra II of Mr. Freeman, geometry of Mrs. Morris, and solid geometry and trigo- nometry of Mr. Freeman. Miss Straley and Mr. Forbes strive to perfect the fundamentals of general mathematics in the junior high. Future homemakers learn and create at the same time. For those interested in a career of one of these arts, the many opportunities are pointed out to them by Miss Rriner and Mrs. Milheim. Students are taught crafts in metal and wood by Mr. Pastelak and Mr. Prietz. Other minor electives include journalism, whose students publish the “Garnet and Gray”, and a yearbook course where training in yearbook production issupervised. Both of these activities are supervised by Mr. Gershman. For those who have artistic creativity, a program of art as either a major or a minor is planned by Mrs. Barcus. Mr. Brown devotes his time to teaching safe driving and the simple mechanics of the automobile. Thespians learn to stage produc- tions under the leadership of Mrs. Christ. Musi- cal inclinations are encouraged by Mr. Corbin and Mr. Rizzo, courses in chorus, Glee Club, A Capella, orchestra, and band. Hetty J. Lord Genevieve IF. Farnath Charles P.

Working feverishly to “beat the deadline,” this year’s G G editors, Joyce Stallsmith, Maudie O'Malley, Tom Hanna, and Helen Haines tried to compensate for their inexperience by increased industry. Snuff-box editor, Nancy Holman, gaily retold the amusing schooltime incidents in each issue of the “Garnet and Gray. Her column, often the first part of the paper to be read, was deftly and cleverly handled. The 1957 LAHIAN copped the highest award given by the National Press Association, the “All American”, for the 19th year, the Columbia Scholastic Press Association’s coveted “Medal- ist” for 17 successive years, and the Pennsylvania Scholastic Press Association’s new top-ranking “Keystone” award, the highest in Pennsylvania. Faculty Advisor Mr. Louis Gershman permits his G G editors unusual freedom “to develop their self-reliance and responsibility.” Their consistently fine product reflects the success of his policy. Lahian workers scrambled busily for subscrip- tions early in the year but settled down to cut- ting, pasting, and captioning pictures, racking their thoughts for a theme, and debating on covers and layouts. This year, for the first time, the four G G editors journeyed to New York City to attend the Columbia Scholastic Press Conference. They observed new methods and theories of school publications, which they then related to our school’s needs. Another highlight for journalists was the Press Banquet held at the Green Avenue School. Bud- ding reporters met alumni editors and learned valuable lessons from their wider experience, while all enjoyed a covered-dish supper prepared by the versatile scribes. 32 LAII IAN STAFF Row 1 (I. to r.): G.

Music Relaxes Tense Teenagers The strains of “Pomp and Circumstance, heard at Commencement, wound up a busy year for the L-A orchestra. Before this finale, the orchestra had played at “Back to School Night,” the Senior play Sky High, and assemblies for both junior and senior high. The orchestra and choir teamed up for the memorable May Music Festival. Outside of school, the Lansdowne-Aldan Orchestra, who entertained patients at the JUNIOR A CAPELLA CHOIR Row I: C.

Under the direction of Mr. Douglas Duncan, the T. A. B. orders books from a national club of the same name. Students make their choices from a small newspaper of book reviews issued every month. There are all kinds ol books, from Dennis the Menace to The Hunchback of Notre Dame. 'I'he Teen-Age Book Club provides an easy and economical way for teen-agers If) read more books for enjoyment. THE STAGE CREW Stage Manager Harry Laskey Whenever a L-A student attends an assembly, a dance, or a stage production of any kind, he is probably unaware of the activity of the busy Horace Laubach, these huskies perform impor- tant tasks necessary for a polished performance. For this year’s senior play, “Sky High,” the Stage Crew constructed and raised the scenery, controlled the lighting, and connected an ampli- fier system. A Stage Crew member is present backstage at every assembly to make certain all the mechanical devices operate successfully. The special effects which make a dance so pleasant are all arranged by the Stage Crew. AUDIO-VISUAL CLUB President Bob Frederick The Audio-visual crew, or A-V boys as they are affectionately dubbed, contribute time and services to the school by providing technical aids for assemblies, ojjcn houses, and sports events. They also show movies and slides in class. These boys, trained by Mr. Paul McClure, serve as technicians and fix-it men for the entire school. The c'ub provides mechanics-minded boys with practical problems, spending money, and a real chance to serve their school. Boys from seventh through twelfth grade who maintain a good average arc eligible to join in the activities of this club. TEENAGE BOOK CLUB Row 1: B. Allard, A. Soli mando, N. Stone. Row 2: P.

Guided by their sponsor, Mrs. Grace Long, the debu- tantes learn by others’ experiences the rules of etiquette, grooming, and dating. Poise, person- ality, and popularity are the three p’s of the Junior Debs. We enjoyed immensely as they learned important habits of living. A progressive dinner in December is just one project of their busy year planned by these vivacious seventh and eighth grade coeds. Also, Christmas caroling and a Junior Debs party in the spring are included in the tentative plans for the year. MARCHING AND TWIRLING CLUB Head Majorette -Gail Siegrist Snappy routines and fast moving drills are the special purposes of this active group at Lans- downe-Aldan football games and band concerts. This year, working in cooperation with the band and Mrs. Genevieve Farnath, the Major- ettes, Color Guard and Flag Twirlers sparked their performances with the addition of new garnet and white uniforms. l or enthusiastic beginners who are interested in acquiring marching and t wirling skil's, meet- ings are held in early spring to teach these young hopefuls. Competition later determines the girls with the most ability and self-confidence who will march ahead of next year’s band. FRENCH CLUB Parlez vous francais? Le Cercie 1'rancais found itself again this year under the leadership of our new French instructor, Miss Betty Jean Lord. After a couple of years of inactivity, the belles and beaux sparked a program of new interest about France and its language. Not only has the club had very Frenchy meetings such as the special ('hristmas meeting, but also has taken a field trip to see the movie presenta- tion of Emile Zola’s “Gervaise.” This club provides a wonderful opportunity for French students to practice speaking a language and to learn about the customs and culture of France. BOWLING CLUB President—Jim Doyle Membership is available in the Bowling Club for beginners as well as experts. Boys and girls who would like to try a sport that is different from those played in gym class are encouraged to join. Members get together in a local bowling alley and match their skills in friendly competition. Many improve their games by the last meeting, but even if they don’t, a good time is had by all. The Bowling Club is piloted by Mr. Horace Laubach who helps in its organization and offers friendly advice to the members based on many years experience as a bowler. THE BIG SISTERS President—J ean 11 uber With bubbling enthusiasm and great anticipa- tion, senior girls of Lansdowne-AIdan plunged into this new branch of Tri-Hi-Y. The Big Sisters, guided by Miss Margaret Cook, enjoyed a very successful year in taking eager, young frosh under their wing and giving them friendly advice about grades, school rules and extra- curricula activities. To carry out their program of friendliness, Big Sisters sponsored a guided tour of the high school and a festive luncheon for their Little Sisters. A cheerful atmosphere prevailed through- out the occasion, new friendships were made and a good time was had by all. SEVENTH GRADE GAME CLUB President William Nock After the busy whirl of a day at school, fun- loving seventh graders in Aldan make their way to the Game Club. Chess, checkers, and scrab- ble offer these youngsters many challenging af- ternoons. While moves are carefully being planned for checker and chess contests, strange new vocabulary words pop up in scrabble games. For those members who enjoy less mental exer- tion. there are lively games of Superman, cargo, and pick-up sticks. All students participate with much enthusiasm and exuberance, building up feelings of companionship, sportsmanship and just plain fun while strengthening abilities in their favorite games. 46 FRENCH CLUB Showing picture: T.

FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA President—Betty Ruth Werthwine Investigating special teaching fields, taking field trips, and discussing methods of instruc- tion, this year’s Future Teachers of America have actively supported their policy of encour- aging and informing prospective faculty members. Under the tutelege of Mr. Paul McClure, faculty sponsor, the group journeyed to West Chester State Teachers College where they observed spe- cial classes for handicapped children. “Teach- ing,” remarks Junior Judy Butterfield, “is a worthwhile and rewarding job. The job gives you a warm sense of accomplishment.” The meetings enable students with similar plans for the future to confer on mutual problems and to help each other solve them. ALDAN STUDENT COUNCIL The Aldan Student Council, composed of rep- resentatives of the seventh and eighth grades and of all class officers, appoints hall monitors and sponsors open houses. The young Student Counselors also direct the safety patrols stationed at each of the four main intersections in Aldan. Thus, the council serves a practical purpose while it co-ordinates student-teacher relations and instructs the youngsters in the procedures of self-government. Due to the seventh and eighth grade’s move to Lansdowne classrooms next year, the Aldan Student Council faces abolition. But the new- comers need not worry, for there is a well-estab- lished Junior High Student Council operating at Lansdowne. MAJORETTES Head Majorette—Gail Siegrist Gaily stepping ahead of the band in a dazzling array of color and talent are the color guards, majorettes and flag-twirlers of Lansdowne-Aldan High School. A traditional part of every Saturday football game, these spritely young girls add a festive note to pre-game and half- time activities. Accompanied by musicians from the band, the girls display talents that they have worked faithfully to perfect during the previous week. This year, with the aid of the Home and School Association, the group proudly displayed new garnet and white uniforms which were fitted with silver buttons and topped with dashing garnet plumes. TRI-HI-Y CLUB President—Helen Evans 1 he students of L-A were put into the spirit of Thanksgiving this year when they noticed the artistic arrangements of pumpkins and corn shock ill center hall. The girls’ Tri-Hi-Y was responsible for this, as well as gay Christmas decorations With Miss Margaret Cook as an advisor, the Tri-Hi-Y Club as a branch of the Lansdowne “Y” gives teenage girls a chance to prove their worth through projects to help others. To share its blessings with others, the Tri-Hi-Y club sponsored a needy Lansdowne family with six children. A Thanksgiving dinner was pro- vided, as well as clothing and toys later on.

Headed by Mr. Robert Em- berger, lively participants of this newly-created club engage in a variety of activities. Chess, checkers and three-dimensional tic-tac-toe give many happy hours to fun-loving youngsters. Winding up every series of games are play-offs and tournaments, which arouse a feeling of com- petition among the students. Rewards for win- ners and losers alike arc good sportsmanship, cooperation, and new-found friendships, which in main- cases last for the remainder of their lives. DRAMATICS CLUB Excerpts ranging from Shakespeare to Ten- nessee Williams claim the interest and potential acting ability of drama students. Mrs. Virginia Christ, dramatic coach, directs the efforts of these “budding Barrymores,” who acquire a broad knowledge of stage terms, acting tech- niques, and play-reading skill. Dramatics club forms a training-ground for hopeful stars of the Senior Play, the Spring musical, and one act plays. Experience gained from this expert coaching produces side benefits such as stage presence, public speaking ability, voice develop- ment and self-confidence. Dramatics is offered to sophomores juniors, and seniors. COOKING Row 1: A. Davis, B. Evans, L. Fearn, A'. Bashore, J. McCrea, K. McIntosh, E. Schamis. Row 2: B. Dean, V. Rector, J. Conner, I..

ALDAN GLEE CLUB Harmonizing and learning the fundamentals ol reading music are the main objectives of Mr. Franklin Fertig, director of the Aldan Glee Club. The group sings old favorites as well as new ballads. Practice in both singing parts and sight reading prepares the young choristers for more advanced work in high school. Lansdowne welcomes these well-trained voices into the ninth grade glee clubs, where the songsters receive even more intensive training. In addition to the musical background, youngsters learn the importance ol the individual in a group project and the value of cooperation to the success of an undertaking. COOKING CLUB “In these days of instant foods and TV din- ners,” observes one senior, “it is still very im- portant to a happy home to be able to cook well. In cooking classes, the emphasis is placed upon special diets, balanced meals, and clean-up tech- niques. The girls are exposed to various home economics principles. Most of the students agree that the course is “very useful.” Miss Briner teaches the lively class the rudiments of housekeeping and cooking, making it one of the most popular electives in our high school taken by girls throughout the school, it is also offered to boys in eleventh and twelfth grades who wish to develop their latent culinary skills. 51 Friends Help To Dispel Problems SCIENCE CLUB President—Jim Hefty Juniors and seniors may broaden their scope of knowledge in the scientific world by joining the Science Club which is supervised by Mr. Paul McClure. These future scientists have an op- portunity to meet every other Thursday after school and work on scientific projects of their own choosing which include the study of cosmic rays, the composition of rayon, and photo- electric effects. The program, however, is not limited to the activities which take place in these meetings. Field trips are taken on which students visit industries, and attend scientific lectures which are held at Franklin Institute. ALDAN SOCCER “Score that goal!” “Kick that ball over here! These and other shouts ring across the soccer field as healthy young Aldanites compete in a typical fast and furious game of “all-kicking football. Soccer, the national game of Greece, occupies an important spot in the Aldan junior high athletics program. A soccer team has eleven players, five on the “line” and six in the “backfield for defense. Only the goalie can touch the ball with his hands. Participation in this lively sport encourages sound physical train- ing and develops principles of sportsmanlike conduct which is often transferred to the matters of living.

ALDAN BASKETBALL Captain—Alden Parsons Paving the way for a bright career in senior high school basketball, shooting enthusiasts from Aldan Junior High School have pooled their interests and banded together. These young boys eagerly learn techniques in guarding, foul shooting, lay-ups and hook shots. Their hours of haul work and perseverence are finally rewarded when playing opposing teams, they rack up point after point. “Early in the game,” they work together as a team, and, gradually, through cooperation and sportsmanship, they begin to discover their own potentialities as well as those of their teammates.

Still a Bit Dazzled by High School Life 78-70 1958 Seniors Whirl Through A Senior composite is closely examined by P. Helm, J. Huber, C. Adrian, Mr. R. Spafford, C. Mandos, and J. Kline. Activity plans for the coming year are discussed by the Senior class officers S. Johnson, II. Neilsott, C. Philips, and V. Crawford. A big and busy year is over for the Senior Class of 1958, but bright memories of deeds well done linger in the hearts of those who are ready to step out into the wide, wide world. The man on top of the class, President Charles Philips, aided by Adviser Mr. Lawrence Richards, helped the “ Fifty-eighters” to blaze a trail of bright accomplishments. The financial report, compiled by Treasurer Hope Nielsen, was an extremely favorable one. Some of the sources of this income came from refreshment stands at football games, name card sides, the senior play, and dances. In class standing, Doris Oeljeklaus copped the top position in her junior year and remained at that post when averages were tallied in the senior year. I)oris also sparked the cheerleading squad. The Student Council, piloted by Senior Dan Miglio, brought to a close another successful year as the school law enforcing body. Dan’s It’s spring again for L-A Couples, I). Paix and 11. Haities, M. Hoffman and H. Hobbes. Peek-a-boo! P. lird- rnan, R. Sciocchetti, P. Glass, P. Slyer, P. Taylor, and L. A Iden, stage crew members, peer from behind stage equip- ment. Their Final Year MR. L. RICHARDS Senior Adviser officers again favored a continuation of Senior Privilege along with the system of honor study halls. The 1958 DAR award for good citizenship was awarded to Joyce Stallsmith. Her accomplish- ments were many. She, as well as Bill Hoffmann traveled abroad under the American Field Service program. They made their homes for the summer months with families in Japan and Greece, respectively. Joyce also did an able job as editor-in-chief of the G G, abetted by page editors, Helen Haines, and Maudie O'Malley. In the social whirl, the class of '58 produced a very successful Christmas dance entitled Santa's Workshop” with toys and teddy bears and holi- day-spirited dancers. Trips to the United Nations and then to Washington, D. C. provided the seniors with a knowledge of the institutions that are the backbone of our country in addition to many fond memories of a rollicking good time. For drama fans, the senior play, “Sky High,” was the utmost in entertainment. Holding the leading roles were Gail Siegrist and Chris Abbott. Kittsy Skinner, Frank Stoner, and Bonnie Braden, along with Rita Scharer and Walter Ernst, contributed their vim and vigor to the three-act comedy. As a fitting conclusion to a gala year, the seniors basked in the starlight and melodies of Al Raymond and his band at the Senior Final held in the Drake Hotel. What a wonderful climax this was to a year of cherished moments that will long be remembered! Mr. T. Hr own reviews the course of Driver Training to L-A students, D. Dampman, C. Mandos, P Faix and J. Huber. Lunchtime finds K. Eyler, G. Hell, C. Mason. . Hobbs, P. Miglio and P. Taylor talking over their plans for the Senior Final. Some “honest-to-goodness clowning, around is performed by J.

This pride was reflected by their original newspaper, “The Junior Jazz which gossiped gaily about people and events in their lives. In the realm of accepting responsibility, 30 of the top-ranking American history students journeyed to Temple University to draft a model national platform for the Democratic Party. Valedictorian Powell Arms captured the chair- manship of the entire convention, which was sponsored by the Civic Forum League.

Active class officers Rick Ellis, John Vinnacombe, Joyce Danehower and Alice Shober piloted the group. l ive cheerleaders supplemented the contribu- tions of this lively class to the sjx rts world. Boasting stars on almost every varsity squad, the prospective ’59 graduates produced such outstanding players as Judy Morris, Ann Turner, and Liz Evans (hockey), Dale Waters and Artie Hyland (basketball), and Eddie Lentz and Craig Bate (wrestling). The junior prom, “Ebbtide,” featured unique underwater scenes drawn by an energetic art committee headed by Sallie Erstad and Liz Evans. Among the unforgettable decorations were gigantic wire fish suspended from the gym rafters. “It was the greatest blast ever,” sighed one happy junior. Learning their class standings, interpreting Drexcl and Kuder Preference Test results, and writing research papers about their probable vocations urged “the 59’ers” to think seriously about “life after L-A.” Of the many wonderful events in their busy junior year, juniors remember the day they re- ceived their class rings, a symbol of “growing up.” As they walked through the halls, ostenta- tiously Hashing their rings, juniors seemed to be anticipating their equally fun-packed senior year, when, with senior prestige, they will be even more “indispensable.” HOMEROOM 42 Row 1 (I. to r.): A.

Seek the Key to Growing Up The class of 1060 made its grand entrance into the more mature world of senior high school life, ascending the steps of maturity and independ- ence. The sophomore’s cabinet, composed of President Allen Buchanan, Vice President Ray Molahan, Secretary Ginny Kinsman, and Treas- urer Jackie Rankin, was guided into channels of success by their advisor, Miss Sarah Adams. Financial independence developed a feeling of self-sufficiency in these tenth graders and was achieved by the efforts of able salesmen in the sale of candy at basketball games and of Christ- mas cards. Not only did this benefit the class, but also enabled the class to plan, finance, and carry out certain social activities, namely the Sophomore Dance, which was the highlight of an eventful year. Couples danced under canopies of lavender and “Deep Purple” to the lilting of Bobby Safford and his band. 'Faking a place in the senior high world, sophomores boldly burst into the swing of high school activities. Varied talents popped out all over. Many sophs were stars for our varsity athletic teams, and others formed the backbone of Junior varsity teams. Musically, the sophs lent their voices to the Tenth Grade Chorus or their instrumental abilities to the orchestra and band. The clubs of our school found the tenth graders a ready and willing group which ener- getically plunged into various activities. HOMEROOM 54 Row 1 (I. to r.): J. Oil, P. Paul, J. Col man, C.

Score Musical “We’re working our way lip and enjoying every minute,” says the Class of 1061. Amazing indeed is their success in various fields of en- deavor which can be attributed to their maturing outlook on life. Music found young talent in girls’ and boys’ glee, band, and orchestra. “Fun and Frolic,” an annual autumn production, just danced with the bubbling vitality of this energetic group. Junior High Student Council, led by President Rusty Haines and Secretary-Treasurer Torn Maher, ushered out a successful year. Many athletic teams shined with the victories of their young players while peppy cheerleaders kept spirit high. Yv Athletic and Scholastic Victories HOMEROOM 56 Row 1 (I. to r.): M. Atwood, J.

Experience Ups and Downs of Growing Up Just entering their teens, eighth-graders dis- covered that the world was “their oyster.” Everyday brought many novel and exciting experiences in classes, clubs, and sports. In classrooms, students were guided into the right channels and came through boasting a brilliant record. Guided by Mr. Raymond SpafTord, eighth- graders were introduced to our historic past. English skills were directed by Mrs. Grace Long. They will long remember the skits from Johnny '1 remain, produced by the English classes, which provided dramatic thrills in assembly. Funda- mental mathematics, general science, and health were daily chores on the school schedule. A lighter side of school life was not lacking for these peppy young people. Many clubs, athletic teams, band, and the orchestra claimed their loyalty. They “rocked and rolled” at junior high open houses and helped to cheer senior high teams on to victory. Their memorable year was highlighted by a Junior Debs dance in April. Members of the club and their dates enjoyed dancing and refreshments in the school gym. At the end of a happy, profitable year, eighth- graders are now in the full swing of school life and activity, ready to take the reins as prosec- ti ve leaders of the junior high. Left: J.

Seventh Grade Student Council boys dress up for the faculty basket- ball game. Still a Bit Dazzled by The first year at L. A. H. S. was enthusiasti- cally greeted by exuberant seventh graders. They immediately plunged into a whirl of school activities including clubs, music, and sports. The year bounded to a good start when parents of new students participated in ‘ Back-to-School” night. The result was an early understanding between the faculty and parents. Fall’s arrival saw the annual junior high pro- duction “ Fun and Frolic” supported by most of the seventh graders.

Coach Kay SpafTord, in his first season at L-A, led the eleven to a thrill- packed 21 20 triumph over Media’s Mustangs in the squad's final home encounter. The Lords dropped lour contests by a small margin one point in the Eddystone fray, 14 13. I he gridders fell to Nether Providence, Spring- field and Marple Newtown by one touchdown. The four contests were highlighted by late rallies that fell short. Seniors Charlie Philips and Dan Miglio snatched spots on the Cpper Darby News’ All-East Delaware County second football team at the close of the season. Guard Bob Test and Sophs Jim Dickerson and Ray Ilolahan grabbed positions on the honorable mention list. Philips and Miglio nabbed honorable mention berths in the Chester Times’ All-Delco selections. Coach SpafTord’s squad will claim many returning letterwinncrs next year since six juniors and eleven sophomores received varsity letters. Another full team of sophs and ten juniors nabbed junior varsity numerals. Coach SpafTord confidently predicted, “With 17 lettermen back and three or four men to every position, we should do pretty good. Of course,” he said injecting a little humor, “when you’ve only won one game, the only way to go is up.” The Lord’s second half rallies saw the eleven fight back from a halftime deficit. The squad tallied 13 markers in the second half against Eddystone while a final period touchdown pass to Larry Alden brought on the rally against Springfield. The Media contest saw the gridders pile up an early, 21-0 margin and then hold off the Mustangs’ rally. The outstanding football player of the year trophy is presented to D. Miglio by Mr. R. SpafTord in an awards assembly. It £) rs 5 . 5 a.3F?'5 ?6SS5a,'7 j30 A3 te3trS 8, 2E 3% «tsw.f w. fc24 k.38 • 45 - 4P -50.32.. 3?_ 47,.

The hot league scrap saw the Nether Provi- dence Bulldogs dump the Lords twice in their two clashes while Yeadon and Media, tied for third spot, tripped the Bulldogs. Coach Bill Radcliffe’s cagers grabbed the Chester Kiwanis Tournament laurels as they whipped Haverford, who went on to win the PIAA class A championship. The L-A five walloped Ridley Township and Upper Darby in the squad’s other tournament tilts. After downing Kennett Square, 81-45, the Lords bowed to Chester, 82-63, in the semifinals of the PIAA playoffs.

Injuries Plague Matmen Bessey Nabs Crown WRESTLING Plagued by injuries throughout the season, Coach Lloyd Black’s wrestling squad dropped all of its contests to post a winless record in 7 league encounters. Undefeated Bob Bessey grappled to the PIAA District 1 wrestling crown in t he 103-pound class. Bessey went on to drop a close decision, 2-0, in the Regional championships to rank second in the bouts at Columbia High School. Junior Eddie Lentz, 112 lbs., grabbed third spot in the District battles. “At the start of the season, L-A had potentially the third best team in the league, said Coach Black, “but as the season progressed various injuries coupled with the inexperience of the replacements caused the squad’s downfall.” Three-year numeralmen Bob Test, 165 lbs., Stan McIntosh, 127, and Steve MacAleer. 154, were injured before or during the season. Soph C hris At kiss, runnerup in the 1957 District champion- ships, suffered from pneumonia during the cam- paign. Coach Black’s grunt n groaners battled to two close decisions in their ’57-’58 campaign. They dropped the Haverford opener, 28-22, as the losers’ vacant 185-pound slot gave the Fords their margin of victory. In the Norristown fray, the Lords battled to an 18 19 score before the 185 lb. spot made the final tally 25-18. WRESTLING Episcopal I laverford . .

Squad Boasts Large Turnout Coach Douglas Duncan’s 1958 track team hopes for a good season despite the late arrival of spring. Coach Duncan held practice rain or shine—mostly rain—this spring, with many of the workouts being held in the gym. The cinderlords claim the largest turnout in the past few years to back the squad's two return- ing letterwiliners, Co-captains Charlie Philips and Bob Test. Philips holds the school discus record while Test excells in the javelin and shot put. A large crop of sophomores support the large turnout of talent. Jim Dickerson, Phil Harrison and Don Della Porta plus two seniors, Reid Eyler and Dan Overcash, head the list of newcomers. Coach Duncan’s charges expect to be the best- dressed squad in Delaware County since the cindermen are sporting brand-new uniforms. II. S.
