LANSDOWNE-ALDAN HIGH SCHOOL, LANSDOWNE, PENNSYLVANIA Keeping up with the changing times y ,e Jasf ZJempo of Jur ZJimeA Most of us remember when television was new. It seems life a long time ago, but actually the number of days, months, or years is few. The changes in our lives during the past ten years have been immense. Roaring jet engines, the Salk, vaccine, push- button housefeeping, new dimensions in entertainment—and an innumerable host of others have fept us breathless as to what was coming next. The fast tempo of the times has permeated our school lives, too. The young men and women rising to match the challenge of moving times are reflected in the many more students who arc sudying French, Latin, or Spanish, the scientific and mathematical devotees, the girl with the business head, the art enthusiast who works late nights to complete scenery for local productions, and the contenders in all fields who try to meet the changing times with perseverance and good will. Keeping up with the changing times has dynamic meaning to us teenagers. We have been awakened to today s revolutionary happenings by our teachers, our classes, our leaders, our discussions, our research projects, and our changing attitudes. The 1959 Lahian Staff has undertaken to tell the story of how our school is “KEEPING UP WITH CHANGING TIMES. WHAT M. Ingram and R. Dale show their completed models of Greek Parthenons to Mrs. E.

Alive with visions of fearless matadors, flashing red capes, the Eiffel Tower, Paris cafes and book- stalls, the gleaming white marble of the Roman Forum, Caesar’s legions, Shakespeare’s “Hamlet”, and London fog, Spanish, French, Latin, and English classrooms are steeped in the atmospheres of their exciting cultures. The weaving together in language study of gram- mar with the culture of the people who speak the language helps to create understanding of world neighbors. Latin American nations and Spain claim the heritage of the Spanish tongue. French, the language of diplomats, is the second-ranking lan- guage of the United Nations and the tongue of a fiery, freedom-loving people of a strategic nation in Europe. Reflected in the laws, architecture, and countless standards of modern Western society is the ancient glorious civilization of Rome and the Latin language. English is rapidly assuming a uni- The intricate carvings of early French architecture are pointed out to T. Welsh and Mrs. B. Lord hy C. Gentile. A recording of Robert Burn's poems is played to B.

Innovations in language study have recently in- cluded the opportunity to translate such works as Homer’s “Illiad” and Saint-Exupery's “The Little Prince” in the third year of learning. Novels, plays, drama, short stories, and biographies are absorbed in English literature courses. Spanish, French, and Latin clubs attend foreign movies, sing the songs of their countries, and dramatize scenes. Lively discus- sions of the morality of Caesar’s treatment of con- quered states, existentialism, and the works of Sartre, Saint-Exupery, and others. Franco’s role in power politics, and social conditions in England as portrayed by Charles Dickens ensue from the in- quiries of students. Vast stores of wealth, enjoyment, appreciation, and understanding are derived through the study of grammar, literature, and cultures. This is a pihata. says B. Braun to fellow Spanish stu- dents A. Templeton, ]. Morris. B. Braun, ]. Marasco, and B. Winstead. Times and terrains teach us tolerance SOCIAL STUDIES Today's world represents a house divided against itself. Through the study of history, social problems, and current events, social studies students are pre- paring themselves to meet the challenge of creating one world. What does social studies entail? Is it merely a study of problems which pertain to our country? Social studies is the concept of life, environment, and their contributing factors. To become better acquainted with world prob- lems, seniors visited the United Nations Building to see for themselves what peacemakers are trying to accomplish in this ever troubled world of today. What about the Berlin Crisis? What will its effect be on the United States? American history classes discuss the American aspect of such problems as well as America's early problems. As America is con- stantly making history, it is necessary that today's students be acquainted with current world events which may mold and shape the future of the world. Students in social studies are interested in the world around them and what is going on. Profiting by mistakes made in American history, world history equips students to go out into the world better fit to help society and mankind. Social studies is important to anyone who wishes to be a good citizen. For to be a good citizen, one must know and understand his history to cope with problems of the present day.

Present at the missile countdown was Alumnus Joseph Broadbent, the man who pushed the firing button for the Thor rocket. L-A’s budding scientists, beginning to realize the vital implications of rocket and missile development, were surprised to find that they had indirect contact with someone engaged in such vitally important work. Using current scientific data obtained from IGY and satellite reports from outer space, twelfth grade physics students are continually fascinated by the voluminous research material. Besides exploring new ideas, the physics curriculum includes the traditional experiments in sound, electricity, light, heat, and energy. Pupils are also urged to attend scientific lectures in Philadelphia. Gee, how they can eat! P. Hine. D. Broods. G. Trueman and L. Stewart watch their animal friends munch away. Chemistry enthusiasts, juniors and seniors explore the make-up and behavior of their inorganic environ- ment. Writing formulas, balancing equations, and developing a curiosity about their surroundings occupies the time of these science-minded experi- menters. Tenth graders investigate both botany and zoology in their biology course. They dissect frogs, draw crayfish, put white mice on special diets, and analyze different types of flowers. Lab assistant posts are open to the most promising scientists. These laboratory helpers, juniors and seniors take care of the lab, help amateur scientists with their experiments, and carry on independent research. R.

Will business Typists, stenographers, secretaries, receptionists, bookkeepers, corporation executives, filing clerks, department store buyers and store managers are among the countless business occupations for which a foundation is laid in secretarial, clerical, and dis- tributive education courses. The modernized distributive education headquar- ters includes a model store equipped with consumer products and a cash register. Walls are adorned with pictures of proper selling techniques. Pupils select- ing this course attend specified classes during morn- ing hours and head for individual jobs in the afternoon. Office training, bookkeeping, typing and stenog- raphy are included in the secretarial course, while these together with commercial mathematics, sales- manship, business law and clerical practice are mastered in clerical preparation. Typing and short- hand are offered as supplementary minors to college preparatory students. Future Business Leaders of America, piloted by its energetic president, Mary Lou Sharrah, encour- ages the further development of efficiency, accuracy, and speed through state-wide competition, selling projects, special programs, and representation at an annual state convention.

Carlton Abbott Beauty and flexibility, keynoting the art, music, home economics, and physical education additions to Lansdowne-Aldan High School, provide renewed inspiration to administrators seeking improvements and advances in curriculum, extra-curricular activi- ties, and general school affairs. School policy is ably administrated by Dr. E. Carlton Abbott, our most affable superintendent. Mr. Joseph D. Moore, principal, is chiefly con- cerned with the smooth, integrative functioning of all aspects of school life. Miss Mary E. Lindenmuth, assistant principal, advises juniors and seniors on college and career choices. Handling attendance, dis- cipline, and guidance counseling for sophomores and freshmen is the concern of Assistant Principal Mr. Roland Hughes. Seventh and eighth graders turn to Mr. Stanley Kleckner, assistant principal, for aid in their affairs. Always ready with a friendly smile and a helping hand, Mrs. Isabel Algard and Miss Juliet Calebro, secretaries in the principal’s office, do much to sm x)th over the ruffles of a student’s experiences. Mrs. Margaret Genn and Mrs. Hilda Woods han- dle secretarial duties in the office of Superintendent. Without the kindness, capability, and enthusiasm of the administration, Lansdowne-Aldan High School would be unable to function. Students appre- ciate the efforts of this body to bring order into the often confusing complications of rosters, bell sched- ules, lunch periods, studies, homework, and extra- curricular activities.

Elizabeth Barctis Barbara T. Capece Our perennial hope is to grow up as mature, re- sponsible, thinking individuals. Though the tensions of the moment may deprive us of insight into the value of our teacher friends, we realize deep down how important our teachers are in our life. Interpretation and appreciation of great works of literature plus an understanding of the fundamentals of English grammar are stressed by Miss Margaret McCullough. Mrs. Virginia L. Christ, Mr. Robert Gwinner, Miss Nancy Beere, Mr. Horace Laubach, Mr. Louis Gershman, Mrs. Eleanor Roberts, Mrs. Helen Hort, and Mrs. Marina Asthon. Dramatiza- tion of events, public speaking, and autobiographies are three variations of agenda enjoyed by students. Tearing down barriers among peoples help to in- crease human understanding. Giving us a new means of communication with inhabitants of other lands are Mrs. Betty J. Lord, Miss Sarah E. Adams, and Mrs. Anna R. Connors, instructors of French, Spanish, and Latin, respectively. To thwart atomic disaster rising from the tensions in which we live, science and maturity must pro- gress simultaneously. The subjects of physics, chem- istry, biology, physical science, and general science Mrs. H. Stephens, retired teacher, serves Mr. H. Freeman some tea at a faculty tea given by the home economics department. Twenty the beginning are taught by Instructors Mr. Paul McClure, Miss Gayle How, Mrs. Ardis Dow, Mr. John Rank, Miss Virginia Lammey, Miss Rosemary Strout, and Mr. Douglas Duncan. The study of social studies, civics, American his- tory, world history, and world affairs help us derive meaning from chaos and interpret with insight the complexities of our civilization. Mr. Edwin Snyder, Mr. Raymond Spatford, Mr. Robert Gwinner, Mrs. Nancy-jeanne Everest, Mr. H. Donn McCafferty, Mrs. Eleanor Roberts, Mr. Lawrence Richards. Mrs. Elizabeth Clarke, and Mr. Horace Laubach pro- vide instruction in these fields. Mathematics lies at the foundation of scientific occupations. Students learn techniques of arith- metic, Algebra I, Algebra II. plane geometry, solid geometry, and trigonometry from Mrs. Esther Mor- ris, Mrs. Pauline Edwards, Mr. L. Howard Freeman, Miss Grace Straley, Mr. Anthony Soscia, Mr. Charles Forbes, Mrs. Gayle How, and Miss Ann Wertz. New sewing machines, modern kitchens, and a luxurious living suite are three devices employed to cause delight among home economics students. En- couraging creative talents to practice and learn new techniques of sewing and cooking are Instructors Miss Virginia Briner and Mrs. Mary Milheim. Training in manual arts develop creative skills in the use of metal, wood, and various tools. Mr. Joseph Pastelak, Mr. William Kabakjian, and Mr. Clarence Preitz supervise students in these activities which are the basis for many hobbies and occupations. An understanding of concepts of artistic creation and appreciation is aided by the skill of Mrs. A. Elizabeth Barcus, and Mrs. Louise Clearfield. The beauty and design of the new art suite, including a clay room, a movable desk-easel combination, three separate rooms providing space for group projects and individual efforts, storage space for scenery, modern equipment, and space for individual storage of materials increase relaxation, inspiration, and creative ability on the part of the student. Vocal and instrumental qualities, expressed through music classes. Glee Club, A Cappella Choir, Concert Choir, orchestra, and band are supervised by Mr. Don B. Corbin and Mr. Joseph Rizzo. The new music suite features a spacious orchestra and band room, a choral room, a glass enclosed office, three practice rooms, an orchestra storage room, and a band storage room. The entire area is sound- proof. A hi-fi set, a modern intercommunications system, and plenty of light and air are three high- lights of this “broadcasting studio. Journalistic excellence in the writings of the “Garnet and Gray” and “Lahian is encouraged by Mr. Louis Gershman. Dramatics, highlighted by the operetta and the senior play, is directed by Mrs. Virginia Christ. Mr. Thomas Brown heads instruc- tion in how to drive safely and the workings of an automobile. Physical education development commands im- portance as a means of stressing sportsmanship. Virginia L. Christ Louise Clearfield Don B. Corbin Ardis Dow Elizabeth Clark Anna R. Connors Gerald E.

Football, baseball, softball, hockey, archery, and tennis, conducted out of doors; basketball, gymnastics, and exercises, con ducted in the new flexible gymnasium; and wrestling, conducted in the corrective gym make up the pro- gram of physical education classes, intramural sports, and interscholastic activities offered to students. Mr. Lloyd Black heads the physical education program, with Mrs. Edna Hoffman, Mr. William Radcliffe, Mrs. Virginia Miller. Mr. Douglas Dun- can, Mr. Robert Emberger, and Miss Alice Balk, also serving in this field. Supplementing this roster, health instruction is administered by the same mentors. Actual work experience is one of the most valu- able activities of the distributive education course. Students selecting this course and commercial stu- dents receive instruction from Miss Mildred Ankeny, Mr. Edward Kolodgie, Miss Barbara Capece, Mrs. Janet Felter, and Mr. Gerald Donmoyer.

Good grooming, child care, and family relations, together with the planning, purchasing, preparation, and serving of food and the basic skills of sewing, round out the multi-featured home economics agenda. A modern homemaker has to know much more than just how to cook and sew, advise both Mrs. Mary Milheim and Miss Virginia Brincr, head of the girls' practical arts department. As a result, with the hope of laying a foundation for future happy homemaking know-how, basic skills and related personal and social information are taught. The most modern electrical appliances have been installed in the beautiful new rooms of the annex. All girls welcome the opportunity to master the operation of modern stoves, washers, dryers, ironers, and sewing machines. The drudge of housework is being transformed into creative, houseworking pur- suits as a result of scientific improvements. A number of girls also learn how to become charming hostesses at teas, luncheons, and dinners. Applied practice is afforded them in the many social functions throughout the year. Serving at these affairs gives them necessary practice for future years when they will be queens of their own households. Through these varied activities which have been planned in their schedule. Miss Virginia Briner and Mrs. Mary Milheim hope to have their many students develop into modern homemakers and “hostesses with the mostesses. P. Perrier C. Sibert L.

Thirty one Writers seek new angles An issue of our school newspaper, the Garnet and Cray, is always anxiously awaited by both students and teachers. Piloted by Mr. Louis Gershman, jour- nalism students plungs into whirlwind activities from the very start of the school year with little inter- mission. The whole school rejoiced with Mr. Gershman when he received the “Gold Key award from Columbia Scholastic Press for his distinguished work in the field of publications. This was a fitting reward for the seventeen years of “All-American” and Medalists awarded to our school. The publications office in room 78 is always bustling with activity. Senior Tom Hanna, editor-in-chief and sports page editor, is ably assisted by Junior Linda Perry, first page editor; Senior Diane Cleary, feature page editor; and Senior Kay Sinclair, fourth page editor.

WOODSHOP CLUB President — Eddie Lentz Although developing creativeness in boys is a difficult job, this goal is being attained in Woodshop Club. Drifting weekly from room 16 is the happy noise of boys sawing, chopping, hammering, sanding, and creating beautiful things under the direction of Mr. Clarence Prietz. Benefits provided by Woodcraft Club are these: time to finish projects started in Woodshop, a use- ful hobby which may lead to a lifetime occupation, a safety valve for boundless energy, the pride and satisfaction derived from making something beauti- ful and useful with the hands, or perhaps just somewhere to go every Wednesday night and have a lot of fun. The fun and associations which this club makes possible attract many boys, in class and assembly. FUTURE BUSINESS LEADERS OF AMERICA President — Mary Lou Sharrah A Penny Auction, Regional Convention at Abington High School, State Convention at Bedford Springs, secretarial services rendered to teachers, Executive Board meetings, regular monthly meet- ings, and special evening programs compose the many and varied projects of the Future Business Leaders of America. Profit earned from business ventures provides funds for the scheduling of speakers, movies, and re- freshments for special evening programs, the pur- chasing of pins, and the sending of delegates to the regional and state conventions. President Mary Lou Sharrah described the purpose of FBLA as being “to acquaint the business students with fundamental office procedures and to induce them to work to- gether harmoniously.” FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA Row 1 (1. to r.): D.

We have fun sharing experiences MAJORETTES Head Majorette — Barbara Schoener Providing sparkle and variety at football games, majorettes proudly bear their colors while marching ahead of the band before and during halftime of the contests. Practicing skills and recruiting new en- thusiasts are troup activities led by faculty consultant Mrs. Gayle Howe. These bright lassies also delight those at the Decoration Day and Fourth of July celebrations with their twirling. Gay garnet and gray hula hoops serve as new props for the banner-flourishers. Gridiron fans viewed these accessories for the first time this year. Twirlers fulfill a cheerful capacity in their efforts to inspire, spark, and unite spectators. FLAGTWIRLERS Head Flagtwirler — Judy Swayne Flagtwirlers served in the triple capacity as emblem-hoisters at gridiron challenges, as coaches in twirling skills of aspiring underclassmen, and as leading participants in the Marching and Twirling Club. Keynoting the success of their football game per- formances was intensive practice, drill, and memor- ization of routines. Synchronization with the band was a vital point in preparation of their repertoire. Social activities included breakfast or lunch gath- erings of flagtwirlers, majorettes, and color guards preceding each contest. After a sumptuous meal prepared by a talented mother had been devoured, dancing or conversation ensued. Springtime heralds tryouts for positions available on next year’s squad. Routines used by contenders are original. FBLA President — Nancy Bricker Participation in the Future Teachers of America Convention at West Chester State Teachers’ College highlighted activities rostered on FTA’s agenda this year. Delegates learned about their chosen field in a teaching career through professors of that field. Club members have discovered some of the art of teaching by discussions held at their meetings, as- sisting teachers in the high schtxd, and field trips. Supervised by faculty advisor Mr. Paul McClure, problems involving teaching techniques have been aired and solved. The members of FT A have benefited greatly from the varied activities of the year, and new members are always welcome. MARJORETTES Kneeling: G. McNeir (drum majorette,). B. Sclioener (CaptJ.

How pleasant to relax with friends TRIHIY President — Carole Manfredonia Tuberculosis, polio, and the Lily Day drives bene- fited from the soliciting of Tri Hi Y'ers. Through the sale of mints, the service volunteers contributed $80 to Buildings for Brotherhood, a national YMOA project which provides for construction of “Y centers all over the globe. Tri Hi Y supervised the food concession at an open house which netted profits to purchase a Thanksgiving dinner for a needy family. Christmas cheer to another deserving family was supplied by gifts donated by members. Easter baskets were pre- pared for others. A dance and a fashion show for mothers were other highlights of the year’s program. JUNIOR STUDENT COUNCIL President — David Boyd The Student Council is a student representative organization which acts as the student body s legis- lative association and sponsors many school activities. Any Lansdowne-Aldan High School student may be- come a member of this organization if his scholastic standing contains no failures and his general school attitude is favorable. This year the officers of the Junior High Student Council are Dave Boyd, president: Nick DeBene- dictis, vice-president, and secretary Pat Winstead. These officers attended the Junior High Student Council Convention at Elkins Park Junior High School, and received pointers on running a well- organized group. COLOR GUARD Color Guard — Issy Gilfallan, Captain Brisk routines, spirited marching and skilled gun handling performed by five vivacious Color Guards entertained football spectators during halftime at every game. Working in cooperation with the band and faculty advisor Mrs. Gayle Howe, Color Guards participate in the active Marching and Twirling Club. Other activities include brandishing arms in local parades on Memorial Day and the Fourth of July. Snappy drills provide practice routines for en- thusiastic novices each spring. Selection of the most talented performers results in the formation of next year's squad who will march with majorettes at the band’s head. AUDIO-VISUAL CREW President — Robert Frederick Distribution and operation of equipment rank as the foremost responsibilities of the Audio-Visual Crew. Directed by faculty advisor Mr. Paul McClure and President Bob Fredericks, the capable A-V team lists among their activities the showing of films in hundreds of classes. Lights and microphones arc auditorium concerns of A-V during assemblies and evening programs. Spinning the platters at open houses is another indispensable service rendered by this group. The Lansdowne-Aldan School System depends on A-V serviceers for issuance of all films to be shown in class and assembly. Forty-seven SENIOR HIGH FOOTBALL Row 1 (1 to r): T. Ringler. R. Peacocl;. D.

Intramurals relieve that bored feeling FOLK DANCE CLUB President — Peggy Ann Hargraves Immersed in an aura of folklore. Folk Dance Club participants gaily swirled to the strains of rhythmic melodies borrowed from the traditions of England, Spain, Austria, Italy, Russia, Israel, and other countries. Lansdowne resident and adviser Mrs. Gerda Hargrave and President Peggy Ann Hargrave led the group in program planning and dance in- struction. The stories and cultures of the regions from which folk and square dances come were woven into club repertoire. Dances performed in- clude the hora, miscrlou, and maya maya. The troupe, wielding a record player and stacks of platters, met weekly. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY President—Charles Oberdorf Scholarship, leadership, citizenship, and service constitute four primary qualifications for election to National Honor Society ranks. Pledging his adherence to these cardinal princi- ples, each NHS delegate participates in an elaborate confirmation ceremony. Four candles, representing each of the four ideals, are lit and carried forth by last year's members. Selection of NHS representatives is delegated to the faculty and previous NHS selectees, with the total nomination constituting 5% of the junior class and 15% of the seniors. Participation in sports, clubs, music, art, dance committees. Student Coun- cil, journalism, schoolwork, and other facets of high school affairs weigh heavily upon the selection. BOWLING CLUB President — Bob Schacht A scrambled mixture of strikes, peanut butter cups, spares, Hcrshcy bars, turkeys, cokes, and root beers dissolved into a pleasing jumble of bowling terminology and eats” in the minds of bowling club enthusiasts. Guided by Mr. Horace Laubach and organized by President Bob Schacht and Secretary Pat Mac- Allister, the alley fans trouped weekly to Gchris Bowling Alley, Upper Darby. The group enjoyed reduced rates under a school plan. Composition of the ball-wielding pin-knockers included approxi- mately ten high schoolers. Quipped one club member, We had a ball with the bowling ball.” BIG SISTERS President — Helen Evans Lending a guiding hand to bewildered frosh as they step over the threshold into high school life. Big Sisters help newcomers to find a footing in a sea of strangeness and bustle in the senior high whirl. Functions of Big Sisters include varied recrea- tional and educational activities. Intermingling leads to a unified, cooperative spirit of work and play. Acceptance of responsibility and a secure, wel- come feeling are two positive results stemming from the Big Sisters program. An underlying attitude of friendship and good will is also achieved. A happy team of students of all classes working together has provided vast benefits to Lansdowne-Aldan High Schcxil.

Mrs. Virginia Miller, Mr. Douglas Duncan, and Mr. Robert Emberger supervised physical education classes.

L-A's 1958 football squad overpowered Nether Providence, 38-6, for their only triumph in ten en- counters for the campaign. Coach Ray Spafford’s charges placed their co-captain, Junior Steve Speers, among the Chester Times' All-Delco third team selections for the season. The Lords fell to five opponents in the year by small margins. On three other occasions, the Spaf- fordmen bowed by only two touchdowns. Coach Spafford’s squad tallied at least one TD in each clash except the Turkey Day tilt, which saw the Garnet emerge victorious, 19-0. Co-captain Craig Bate and Junior Ray Holahan led the squad in rushing with a total of 353 yards gained. Holahan maintained an average of 4.25 yards per carry as Junior Don Della Porta copped the highest average laurels with 5.29 yards. Junior Jim Dickerson nabbed the highest yardage through passing with 17 grabs for 224 yards. The Lords should field an experienced 1959 squad as 13 varsity backs and ends return to provide scor- ing power to combine with a defense headed by Line- backer Steve Speers. Three backs and two ends claiming varsity numerals also won letters the previous year for the Garnet and Gray. Classmates look ” “t ‘he pep rally preceedmg the Thanks- giving Day Football game as J.

Notching point number 1000 at Media, Hyland closed his record books with 19 tallies against the Clippers, giving him a 1,206 point total, which boosted him to the fifth-highest scorer in Dela- ware County Hisory. Whipping St. James, 64-62, in the final clash, the Lords nabbed the Class A Title of the Kiwanis Tournament for the second consecutive year. Hyland copped the Most Valuable Player award for his leadership, scoring, and defensive accomplishments. The L-A guard held the Jimmies’ high-scoring Tom Galia to 4 counters.

Near the close of the season the squad claimed an unimpressive 2' 10 record. Coach Donmoyer's charges claimed two returning varsity lcttcr'winners from the previous campaign and a pair of JayVee numeralmen from 1958. Soph Bill Miller, who nabbed the top rung of the ladder, and Senior Ken Sipes, second singles, brought back letters while the third and fourth players, Soph Dick Spencer and Senior Tom Hanna, returned with JV awards. Playing the girls' tennis team proved to be the highlight of the year for the squad as they fared better than was expected. The only match dominated by the girls was the first singles contest as Miller fell, 6'4, 6'0. Sipes trimmed Murph Meade in the second tilt, 6'1, 6'3, while the doubles team of Juniors Dick Snider and Ron Peacock dumped Seniors Diane Corbin and Janet Krebs, 6'0, 6'3. Two con' tests, the third and fourth singles, were finished another day as each went into three closely con' tested sets. The action went on down the two teams' ladders as junior varsity matches swept the courts. In the Suburban League action, the netsters dumped Marple'Newtown, 4'1, for their second victory. The Lords nabbed the first three contests played to ice the contest. Miller, Sipes, and Spencer each notched wins in two sets. Snider and Peacock finished the L'A scoring by winning, 6'3, 6'1.
