CLASS HISTORY The year passed rapidly and finally two years of anticipation the night of our prom arrived, and we found ourselves dancing to the strains of Ira Bowman's Orchestra. Stairway to the Stars will long be remembered by all. The following week we took our first College Board Examination at Franklin and Marshall College. YVhat busy bees we turned out to be that day, for we had to hurry home and attend the Barbecue given by the Freshman Class! Before we knew it, Graduation time had rolled around and we were saying good-bye to the many friends we had made. September lflth, l95l brought back Nancy Paine, .Ioan Kauffman, Phyllis Stadler, Martha Eick, Catherine Pickle. julie Adams, 'Ioan Gul- din, Judy Krieder, Sara Margolis, jane Shelley, Ethel Baumgart, Mollie Heifitz, Mary Alice Worth, Beverly Conner and Elise Smith, to greet Barbara Conrad, Elinor Hedden, Marcia VViggs, Susan Trapani, Barbara jenkins, Mary Ann Podeyn, Stephanie Polack, Roberta Raney, Vida Bray, Gail Corbett, and Peggy Coull. The follow- ing girls were elected to office: President, Cather- ine Pickle: Vice-President, Phyllis Stadlerg Secre- tary, Roberta Raneyg Treasurer, Mary Ann. Pod- yn, and representaing us in council were Marcia VViggs, Elinor Hedden, Mollie Heifitz, and Mary Ann Podeyn. julie Adatns was elected as Council President and Sara Margolis as Treasurer. As we returned to these Hallowed Halls, there was a note of sadness in our hearts, not because we were Seniors, but because this was the end of many things - our trips to Mountt Gretna, lect- ures and plays at F. Sc M., Stunt Nights, Caroling at Christmas, seeing the Choir walk down the aisle and hearing them sing their beautiful an- thems, attending the annual horseshow and May Day celebration, and our long-awaited vacations forty-nine which, at times, seemed as though they would never come. In November the Seniors went to Temple Uni- versity to attend career lectures in the morning and a football game between N. Y. U. and Tem- ple University in the afternoon. Darktown Strutter's Ball and 'WVinter Fan- tasy were the last dances our class gave at I.in- den Hall. It was fun this year to combine our talents with the College in Winter Fantasy . None of us will forget the River Chambers Trio and Cut Down the Old Pine Tree . The day soon arrived when the Seniors, in a more serious frame of mind went to F. Kc M. for College Boards and as a source of material for Senior essays, but also as the scene of many a good time at Frat parties, dances, and double- dates. But the Seniors weren't the only busy class -- the Sophomores Evening in Paris were hard at work on their first dance. You did a ntice job, kids, and we know that your Prom next year will be tops. Speaking of Proms, the juniors did a splendid job on Blue Hawaii . It is one dance that will never be forgotten. At last june arrived, bringing with it the excitement of Graduation. It seemed hard tu believe that we, the class of '52, were about to leave these halls in which we had passed so many happy hours together. As june 12th crept closer and closer, we seemed to look with new eyes at things which had become cotnmon-place over the months, for each of us realized that never again would be share the many joys and experiences that had made our lives richer and fuller. Now, at the end of a wonderful Senior year, we want to extend to all future Graduating Classes our wishes for a happy and profitable life at Linden Hall.

CLASS HI TORY It was in September of l918 that the clatter of wash-baskets coming down the stairs was first heard - And what was the reason for this com- motion? Our eight little freshmen, Catherine Pickle, Phyllis Stadler, julie Adams, Martha Eick, Mary Alice Worth, joan Kauffman, -Iudy Krei- der and joan Guldin, had just arrived. At one of their gab sessions the following girls were elected to class olhce: Phyllis Stadler, Presi- dent: julie Adams, Vice President: Catherine Pickle, Secretary-Treasurer: and Joan Guldin, Student Council Representative. During their first year at Linden Hall the Freshies had many new experiences, such as the annual trip to Mount Gretna Park, Stunt Night, plays, Christmas Vespers and caroling, May Day, and the Horseshow, but one of their most cherished memories were their first dances at I.. H. - Pirates' Den , the Senior Dance, and lt's Heaven , the Sophomore Hop. Air Raid! Air Raid! My goodness, I thought the little Freshies had begun to mature, but I guess their pranks will never cease. The year passed razpidly, and the day soon ar- rived when they were bidding each other good- bye and looking forward to being Big Sopho- mores when next September rolled around. Our family of eight returned as Sophomores and welcomed their new classmates, Beverly Con- ner, Betsy Clapp, Nancy Steck, Carol Klinedinst, and Ethel Baumgart into the family circle. VVe selected Catherine Pickle, President, Betsy Clapp, Secretary, and Joan Guldin, Treasurer. Julie Adams and joan Guldin were elected as Council Representatives, while Phyllis Stadler was chosen as Council Secretary. As usual, the activities of the year included many plays, Community Concerts, and Blue and forty-eight White Team intramural contests, as well as trips to Hershey and Mount Gretna Park, Hallowe-en and Christmas parties which helped to enliven an already full-to-overflowing year. This year we were finally given a chalice to prove our ability when after months of prepara- tion, the eve of our first dance, Davy Jones Locker finally rolled around. My, what a night it turned out to be! For weeks afterward fish could be seen swimming merrily in our bathtubs. When Spring arrived we all possessed an abundance of energy. Dr. Horne, seeing that our energy was not being used to the best of our ability, decided that the campus needed atten- tion, and so we were put to work - pulling weeds! YA7e also enjoyed a Barbecue and Square Dance, a new event at Linden Hall, which was given by the Freshman Class. Then Summer Vacation ar- rived, hringing with it many exciting plans. As the leaves turned from green to Autumn's beautiful colors, our thoughts turned once more to Linden Hall and the long-fought-for title of Upper Classmen. This year Martha Eick, Joan Kauffman, Bever- ly Connor, Nancy Steck, Betsy Clapp, Judy Krie- der, Phyllis Stadler, Catherine Pickle, julie Adams, joan Guldin, Ethel Baumgart, and Mary Alice Wlorth returned to welcome the newcomers Marilyn Ashley, Sara Margolis, Doris Cole, joan Wolf, Sara Hoffman, Nancy Paine, jane Shelley, Elise Smith, Rita Copelow, and Mollie Heifitz. After the usual lapse of six weeks we elected our class officers: Catherine Pickle, President, Phyllis Stadler, Vice-President, joan Guldin, Sec- retaryg and Beverly Conner, Treasurer. To re- present us in Student Council we chose Jane Shelley, Sara Margolis, Julie Adams and Elise Smith.
