She has shown us through her leadership of H J the National Honor Society and her work for the children of Christ's Home if ,,.-- rf!-,NW that she is a friend worth remembering. From her seat on the window sill, she guided our halting tongues through the intricacies of Lingua Latinag and with ultimate patience she waited while we pondered over getting ring size six or seven. As a simple expression of the respect of a grateful class, we dedicate this book to you, Miss Mildred Clare Filler. ii4l!

ENCHIRIDION 'LDoes anyone know how Miller Todd's name got on this Junior List? Whe1i is the deadline, anyway? Is there anyone who isn't busy right now? Such was the medley of exclamations and questions which echoed through the chambers of the Yearbook Office every 'Wed' nesday afternoon, amid the bustling and scurrying of the industrious editors, advisers, photographers, salesmen, typists and staff members concealed beneath a bevy of papers, pencils, and pictures. After careful instruction in the art of salesmanship by Mr. William Keim, the conf iident members of the business staff set out to the four corners of Lower Merion to solicit ads to nnance the immense project, while the eager photography staff, directed by Mr. Edgar Whistler, continually snapped candid shots of school life, and formal portraits of sports and clubs. The busy literary staff, goaded and guided by its faithful advisers, Mrs. Margaret Hay and Miss Agnes Raycroft, penned scintillating witticisms and lively ac' counts of clubs and activities. After several months of transferring stories from yellow paper to white paper to blue paper, identifying club and faculty pictures, pasting the articles in the dummy, and prooffreading the product, the weary writers and advisers alike, heaved one great sigh, and shipped their treasured masterpiece to the printers, where it was transformed into the year's most discussed and awaited literature, the ENCHIRIDION.

Hampered by high printing costs, the Nferionite editorial staff with its large flock of reporters and typists tried weekly to publish a creditable paper. Much work was involved in preparation both in regular class periods and after school. After the assignments were turned in Mon' day mornings, they were copyread and sent to the typists, one of the best organized and most efficient groups conf nected with the paper. The typed copy was proofread and headlines were made up. Cne poor individual was then selected to take the accumulated work to the printer in Ardmore. On Tuesdays the schedule was very much the same, and the remaining copy was sent to the printer's office. Wediiesdays the dummy was made up and the gal' leys were proofread for final mistakes. The distribution managers took over late Thursday afternoon and allotted papers for subscribers in each homeroom. When members of the class, which was conducted very informally, weren't actually working on the paper, they practised making dummies and writing headlines, editorials, and leads. Two prominent features of the paper this year were candid editorials pertaining to current school problems and the individual columns written by Joanna Brown, Jim Shipley, and Jim Marsteii. Miss Irene McCormick and Miss Abigail L. Sargent advised the literary staff, Mr. Thomas Ryder, the photography group, and Miss Isabel K. Ends' low, the advertising managers and the business staff.

Xt K. - C S rbxxiz 'bf 'N N x N Mr Pres1dent's Fireside Chat The great John C, Student Council Regulating our school problems, selecting our asf sembly programs, forming our laws, and performing many other services for the school, faculty and stu' dents, the Students Council, as representatives of the student body, aided by their sponsor, Mr. Vincent Pearce, successfully and efficiently completed the year's work. The group planned, decorated, and if nanced the L'Eall Prom, Reverse Dance, Barn Dance, and Holiday Dance. A Christmas program and party was also given to entertain the children from the Christ's Home, when an interview with Santa Claus, and gifts were provided. Considering and solving the various problems of the students and faculty, the Council elected stair guards to control the traffic, and worked to improve the cafeteria. Girls' H i-Y The three European war orphans whom Lower Merion adopted last year under the Foster Parents' Plan were again clothed, fed, and provided for by contributions from the student body. This undertakf ing, sponsored by the Girls' HifY, is a step toward closer harmony with other countries. This service was only one of the many activities of the club, which was directed by Miss Mary White, sponsor, and Mimbo Simons, president. To meet the sophomore girls, the group held informal teas on Friday afternoons in the fall. These teas, which are an annual event, were highly successful. Two other services rendered by the Girls' HifY were the operation of the candy store and the information desk. A motherfdaughter banquet and a tea for the faculty ended the year's program. Beauty and the box Big brother Honor Society Under the new honor roll system Hrst made effecf tive this year, the Lower Merioii Chapter of the Naf tional Honor Society changed its usual plan. Instead of giving a dinner for each quarter's first honor roll students, i.e., those having A's in ali majors, one dinner was given in the spring for all students who had qualified each quarter under the new honor roll system. In May Hve per cent of the junior class and ten per cent of the senior class were inducted into the Society, after which a tea was given in the lif brary for the inductees and their parents. From the surplus in the treasury, five Care packages were sent overseas. Six members of the Society entered a nationfwide competitive test, sponsored by the Society for a three hundred dollar scholarship. Boys' Hi-Y Oifering a helpful hand wherever needed, and per' forming countless invaluable services around school, the Boys' HifY, organized under the sponsorship of Mr. Harold Helveston, successfully completed a year's work. In addition to the many traditional activities, keeping the football scoreboard up to date, usher' ing at the basketball games, contributing sums to many Main Line civic organizations, presenting the technical award medal and the history prize at the Commencement, and awarding a large college scholar' ship to a worthy senior, the group sent five Care packages to Europe. The Boys' HifY financed all its charitable gifts, merit awards, ine services and activities by selling coke at basketball games and pre- senting the annual Easter dance, The Bunny Hop. Seventy-one The music goes round and round Here we go Ormandy, here we come. Sing a song of sixpence Band The Lower Merion Band, marching through the varied activities of its annual program, again inf spired the spectators at football games with its stir' ring marches and school songs. The boys, sponf sored and directed by Dr. Bruce Beach, opened the season by playing in November for the Community Memorial Service for War Veterans. This event was followed by the appearance of ten band members in the Southeastern Pennsylvania AllfHigh School Band, an honorary group. Numerous assembly prof grams were also presented at home and at other high schools. An overflow crowd heard the band play at the Lower Merion Band Night, and at the annual Spring Concert of the musical groups. The band also 'appeared in the Memorial Day Parade. Orchestra Again one of the active organizations in the Lower Merion Music Department, the Orchestra, comprising eightyfone musicians and composed of an orchestra and a string ensemble, entertained our school and other local schools by concerts. The group was organized with oflicers, and was directed and instructed by Mr. Andrew Frech. Performances were made at the Overbrook School for the Blind, Valley Forge Hospital, and on the Community Christmas Program. Twentyftwo members were in the Southeastern District Orchestra at Radnor, and nine members, selected by tryfouts, participated in the AllfState Orchestra at Allentown. The Or' chestra played selections at the Spring Concert, Honor Society Day, and at Commencement Exercises. Choir The Lower Merion Choir, an especially selected group of voices, was one of the year's most active organizations. The program of the choir featured some outstanding public appearances, consisting of a Christmas concert at Strawbridge and Clothier's, a community Christmas presentation, concerts at several churches of the Main Line, exchange con' certs with other local high schools, assembly enterf tainments, and the usual activities of the choir, such as the provision of music for the Baccalaureate ser' vices and the graduation exercises of the seniors. The choir also assisted in the annual induction of new members into the National Honor Society in the spring, the presentation of the Spring Concert, and sang at the opening of the Annual Cancer Crusade. Girls' Glee Club Meeting hve times a week, the Girls' Glee Club, composed of about fifty girls, was organized this year. Under the direction of Mr. Gerald Woerner, the Glee Club, whose members were specially se' lected from the other choruses, sang threefpart har' mony to many arrangements, including such all' time favorites as Stardust,,' The Lord's Prayer,' and Begin the Beguinef' and many less familiar numbers such as The Spirit Flower, A Snow Legend, and HA Night Song. The group sang at Chapel services and assembly programs, and dur' ing the Christmas season they vocalized in programs at Strawbridge and Clothier's, the N arberth Methof dist Church, and at Lower Merion. They closed the season by participating in the Spring Concert. s Seventyftwo ORGANIZATIONS BAND Fifth Row: Rhoads, Bowling, Yule Burgess, Deuhle, Stier.

Marxmen shooting the bull Farfsighted mademoiselles Miss jacks and her ills Forum Club Centering their attention around current national and world problems, the Suburban Forum League held debates at Lansdowne, Haverford, Radnor, and Lower Merion. Two representatives of each school participated in four meetings, in which the follow' ing subjects were discussed: the Marshall Plan, Republican Presidential Candidates, TaftfI'Iartley Labor Bill, and Competitors of Democracy. Delef gates from Lower Merion were George Morris, Bill Watts, Phil Young, Ray Cmholt, Bob Frech, Jim Shipley, Bill Meyers, and Bob Ewing. Competition among members was keen: Radnor came in first, Lower Merion, second. After school on Mondays in the meetings of the L.M. Forum sponsored by Miss Cecilia Gray, current affairs were discussed. Sophomore French Club Depechezfvous! Nous avons deja commence. In case the preceding does not make sense to you, it is ob' vious that vous ne parlez pas francais. But those sophomores who are sufficiently prepared to speak and to understand French, are cordially invited to try their luck at it. This year as usual nothing but French was spoken at the meetings of the Sophomore French Club, held the first and third Wednesdays of each month, under the sponsorship of Miss Elizabeth Stauffer. Messieurs and demoiselles kept the atmosf phere lively with French games and songs, combining most satisfactorily entertainment with helpful knowlf edge of French history and customs. Those continuing French study may graduate to the JuniorfSenior French Club, or may remain in the Sophomore Club. United Nations Youth Council In the second year of its organization, the Lower Merion Chapter of the United Nations Youth Counf cil of Philadelphia actively executed its program, with the guidance of Miss Myrna Sheely, the club sponsor. At the bimonthly meetings of the group, the orators were enlightened and entertained by speakers of di' versified subjects. In order to coordinate with the purpose of the council, To stimulate interest in all international affairs, Mr. Albert Adam discussed the Russian policy and problem, and Bill Costello explain' ed the Irish Youth Hostel Movement which spreads world understanding. Many current problems, the Marshall Plan, the Division of Palestine, and achieve' ments of the United Nations, were discussed at the informal monthly meetings with the parent club. Sophomore Science Club All sophomore students with an interest in science were urged to join the Sophomore Science Club, sponsored by Miss Elizabeth Jacks. AL the monthly meetings, all general questions of a scientific type were discussed informally and explained and dem' onstrated by experiments. All experiments of an interest to the student body, such as the Atomic Bomb Survey, were shown in the main hall. The group made several journeys into Philadelphia to visit museums and institutes of science. After the members had presented reports about stars and planets, a trip was made to the Franklin Institute, where the story of Christmas Stars was shown. The club, by means of its lectures, motion pictures, and experif ments, aroused a deeper and wider interest in science. Seventyffve Back yard chatter from Browne to Brown Equestrian equilibrium Showpeople Highlight of a year packed with dramatic enter' tainment was Cur Town, a play by Thornton Wilder, which Showpeople presented to the public in November. This threefact drama, a departure from the comedies staged by Showpeople in previous years, was received with favorable comment. In addition to the fall play, the group dramatized two onefact plays for assemblies and spoke on programs on radio stations WDAS and WIBG. During one of the fourthfWednesday meetings, the club, sponf sored by Miss Beatrice N. Leitch and Miss Anita M. Taylor, was addressed by Miss Nancy Graham Simpf son, an alumna of Lower Merion, who works in the field of dramatics. Sixteen club members were hon' ored by induction into the National Thespian Society. Bible Club At the end of one year in the Bible Club, under the sponsorship of Miss Ethel Baker, a member should know all the books from Genesis to Revelation back' wards and forward. The high purpose of the Bible Club was not only to acquaint members with the fasf cinating characters and stories of the Book, but to analyze definite situations and prevailing circumf stances so that each club member might be able to inf terpret for himself the true significance of the Holy Scripture. Further research was encouraged through special reports, contributed by members, about Biblif cal characters. Interesting comparisons and amazing similarities between their lives and ours made people like Joshua and Moses living people-mortals with the same frailties and problems to face that we have. Nothing to say, Gene? Worthy effort for the Red Cios Riding Club The equestrians of Lower Merion each Thursday and Friday rode the Paoli Local to Wayne, where they were met by the black jalopy and were conveyed to the Fox Stables in Valley Forge. Mr. Vincent Pearce, sponsor, instructed these horseflovers in the grooming, training, riding, and care of horses. Then, the group of about ten riders mounted their horses and rode away. The more advanced riders cantered and galloped, while the beginners walked and trotted through Valley Forge Parkis green hills. Over the trails and paths once traveled by Washington's Army, the riders spent a refreshing hour. Mr. Fox cared for those who fell off and encouraged those who were a little hesitant, when Mr. Pearce couldn't be there. During club period, the members enjoyed discussions. Red Cross Club In order to help others, the Red Cross Club, a group of sixtyftwo girls, met twice a month in the cafeteria. Knitting afghans, making scrap books and menu cards, and decorating tray ensembles consisting of tray covers and napkin rings for Valley Forge Hospital provided these club periods with useful work. For recreation, speakers and movies from the Red Cross emphasized the needs and purposes of the national organization. During the fall, the club members sponsored the Red Cross drive, urging contribution to the Red Cross Boxes and organizing the gift boxes for overseas. Mrs. Elizabeth Fowler and Mrs. Hazel Young assisted the girls in executing their relief work. The club was both a useful and satisfying organization for aiding those in need.

Junior-Senior Science Club Entertainment on a scientific basis was the theme of the juniorfSenior Science Club this year. Whetf ting the chemical appetites of approximately eighty interested students, Mr. Paul Keever, sponsor, per' formed amusing and unusual experiments, explaining afterward principles for the startling reactions. Some of the mystical demonstrations included the electric pencil which wrote red and black upon the command of the audience, a stage ghost, the faucet that spouted water though disconnected, and a beatf ing heart of mercury, which pulsated as though it were alive. The club's schedule was not planned to follow the regular science courses, but many of the experiments involved some laws and theories relative to and usable in the chemistry and physics classes. Rifle Club From above Miss Baerls room there echoed a muffled sound of shots every Wednesday after lunch. This noise was accounted for by the Rifle Club, com' prised of about sixty members. The trigger, nring pin, main spring, bolt, and other parts of the .22 rifle were explained by Mr. Lyman Suloff, as he instructed the novices in the handling and shooting of a gun. Under this careful supervision these beginners be' came accurate in hitting the target. Four riflemen were accommodated by the four galleries at one time. With a possible score of one hundred, each marksman took ten shots at the bull's eye. The club members strove to attain this perfect score at each meeting. The rifle amateurs profited from the experience, recreation, and opportunity for developing a skill. They're loaded! Jojo in the spotlight Swimming Club An observer in the Y.W.C.A. building on a Monday afternoon from October until May might have seen a pool of lovely mermaids, not the fabled marine creature halffwoman and halfffish, but the personnel of the Lower Merion Girls' Swimming Club. Laboring amid the laughter and shouts of glee, the members developed the crawl, back, and breast strokes to perfection. Girls of the more ad' vanced group practiced flip, swan, and halffgainer dives under the careful supervision of Mrs. Hazel Young, always called l'Butch.'l At the fiveffoot end of the pool the beginners learned rhythmic breath' ing, and at the tenffoot depth the advanced class harkened to the call of L'Kick, kick, and kick! Once again clad in civilian clothing, in the Downs Gym, the girls learned swimming techniques from films. Photography Club As a result of the combined efforts of Mr. John Miller and Mrs. Madge Barber, cofsponsors, members of the Photography Club felt their time was well spent this year. The group, numbering well over one hundred, assembled the first Wednesday of each month in the auditorium to learn the tricks of the trade. Becoming acquainted with the art of photogf raphy proved to be both interesting and profitable. Although the majority of the club members were interested in photography merely as a hobby, many fine points were stressed which gave a boost to aspirf ing professionals. As an added feature, Mrs. Barber showed, both for the purpose of historical interest and methods in photography, several colorful movies of European architecture, mostly famous cathedrals. Se1.'entyfninc Henry makes the movies Trying to make the Ball's f eye Letting the slide rule their thoughts Make good grooming your motto Visual Aid Club Archery Club Quietly and with little recognition, the members of the Visual Aid Club contributed entertainment and education to our school life. These boys unselfish- ly sacriiced their study periods to show motion pic' tures to all units of the school. Clubs were entertained by movies shown by these boys, biology classes were enlightened by scientihc slides operated by members, were instructed and Visual Aid Club. In accurately and satisf and countless other groups aided by the services of the order to perform its duties factorily, the group of boys was instructed in all the fundamentals of the silent and sound projectors, methods of maintenance of the equipment, and the inf tricacies of the mechanism used, by Mr. Anthony Della Rezza, who conducted a course in methods. Slide Rule Club To learn the use of the slide rule, very widely used in engineering and industrial organizations, is the purpose of the Slide Rule Club, introduced this year at Lower Merion by Mr. James Davis. The members of the club learned to multiply, divide, def rive square and cube roots, figure the functions and sines of angles, and square and cube numbers utiliZ' ing the applicability of the instrument. Meeting on first and third Wednesdays, the twentyftwo students, all of whom are boys, realized how invaluable the slide rule is as a timefsaver when they used it in mathematical problems given to them by Mr. Davis. Though no form of competition was used, the boys learned readily through practice and most were soon able to use the tool in other studies and activities. The Lower Merion Chapter of William Tell's Apple Corps, better known as the Archery Club, prides itself on having completed an unusually sucf cessful season under the sponsorship of Miss Marion Ball. The Merry Men and Maids, a band of approxif mately twenty, met the second and fourth Wednesf days of each month, first, to spar as to who would tally the most points and second, to go out on the shooting range to find out for themselves. The group found the competition stiff this year, especially during the spring and fall sessions. Due to the poor heating facilities, winter's stormy blasts gave them squeaky joints and the indoor range cramped their style. However at the close of one of their most active and competitive seasons, they seemed in superb form. Sophomore Commercial Club In order to learn more about commercial opportunif ties, qualifications and systems, and to develop better personal habits of dress, manners, and grooming, the Sophomore Commercial Club met once a month unf der Miss Elisabeth Schwalm's direction. A trip to Strawbridge and Clothier's in Philadelphia gave an opportunity to these girls to see how the bookkeepf ing accounts are checked and filed, how the charge accounts are checked and how the storeroom supplies are kept on file. Discussions during club periods about personal problems helped the sophomore girls to better their grooming. Cbserving the commercial system and discussing their personal questions were not all the activities accomplished, as the club had parties during Christmas season and in the spring.

Which one is the Spanish pr1ze7 Senior Commercial Club The Senior members of the Commercial curriculum made up the membership of the Senior Commercial Club. The group, sponsored by Miss Kulp, elected Leona Gessler to serve as president for a busy year. In the fall the entire club visited the Philadelphia oflices of the Insurance Company of North America to observe secretaries, stenographers, and other office workers in action. The highlight of the year was a Christmas party, which the members called 'iGhastly Girls, as committees from the club presented how not to be a successful business woman. At another meeting, the subject of Do's and Don't's of business was discussed by the group. In order for the seniors to meet the new Juniors who were prospective mem' bers, they were invited to an evening spring meeting. Hiking Club In sunshine and fair weather, even though the temperature could have been better, the hiking club trooped along Church Road, School House Lane, Montgomery Avenue, and nearfby roads with a zest for the enjoyment of the outfoffdoors. Miss Beatrice Easter and Miss Myrna Sheely guided these hikers on their onefmile trek in fortyffive minutes every fourth Wednesday of the month. These walkers in groups of fifteen observed and enjoyed the familiar scenery or chatted and gossiped together. The frequent snow storms keeping them indoors, the members of the club were entertained by hlms and lectures on hiking, bicycling, and hosteling. In spite of bad weather, the hiking club managed to occupy itself with some amusement about hiking. Junior Commercial Club A picnic, planned to acquaint the girls with each other, was the initial activity of the junior Com' mercial Club, which is sponsored by Miss Beatrice Easter. The picnic, occurring in the early fall, was followed by a spelling bee, a Christmas party, a Truth or Consequences program, and a play, given by some of the club members. In an address by the fashion co' ordinator of Lit Brothers the commercial students were informed about the appropriate apparel to wear in the office. An interesting event for the group, which was composed of forty girls from the Com' mercial Department, was a Held trip to a Philadelphia business concern. The pleasant activities of the year were concluded in the spring by a large social gather' ing with members of the Senior Commercial Club. Latin America Club Once each month the Latin America Club assem' bled under the sponsorship of Dr. Nora Thompson to increase understanding and interest in our South American neighbors. Choosing a different country for study each month, the club watched films and listened to lectures about the industries, social activities, and customs in each country. To secure funds fog a spef cial scholarship, the Latin America Club presented a South American pageant in cooperation with Show' people and several surrounding schools, and arranged a Friday night dance after a wrestling match. The scholarship, offered to all Spanish students, will en' able the winner to travel through South America. To encourage proficiency in Spanish, the club offered medals to the winning students of an examination. Eightyfthree Isabel s just modest Model of distinction Spanish Club Senors and senoritas, who had A or B averages in Spanish, were chosen by Dr. Nora Thompson as members of the Spanish Club. Formed primarily to increase interest and ability in Spanish conversa' tion, the club offered recreation and entertainment for its members. The highlights of the year's pro' gram were the celebrations of various holidays. At Christmas, a pageant of pantomime and songs, Las Posadasf' was performed, and a tea was given for the mothers of the members. The club enter' tained the Spanish Club of Haverford High School at a tea decorated for St. Patrick's Day. A Pan American Program and a dance were also given to contribute to the Dr. Nora Thompson Scholar' ship Fund, for travel and study in South America. Model Racing Club During every Wednesday club period the halls of the Administration Building echoed with the excite' ment of the Model Racing Club. This organization, which was led by Mr. Frank V. Rinehart, sponsor, and Bill Douglas, president, was added to the choice of clubs in Lower Merion this year for the purpose of racing model automobiles. The little cars were home' made or homefassemhled from balsa wood, and, hav' ing been propelled by capsules of carbon dioxide gas, they often reached speeds of seventy to ninety miles per hour. From week to week the boys kept careful records of the speeds of their miniature automobiles, which were timed by a stop watch, and, as a result, there were many friendly rivalries between the mem' bers who were trying to better the existing record. Gasoline alley. Retailers research Portrait Club The Portrait Club was formed by Mr. William Bahmermann, to offer the opportunity of further training in portrait painting to members of the art classes, and all other interested students. Employ' ing the various mediums of pastels, pencil, oil paints, and water colors, members completed studied draw' ings of miniature objects to increase accuracy, and croquis, or minute sketches, to enhance freedom of style. Selecting subjects from the class, members finished detailed portraits and figure studies requir' ing several periods of painting. All completed projects were eligible for the contest held in the art room on Parents' Night, when three prizes for entries of each medium were awarded by members of the Boys' Hi'Y to the aspiring young artists. Business Society Every student who is admitted to the Distributive Education Class becomes .1 member of the Lower Merion Business Society. The membership also in' cludes alumni and prominent business executives as honorary members. The purpose of the organization, as planned by the sponsor, Miss Margaret Morris, was to effect a closer relationship between persons of the business world and students of distributive edu' cation, to promote a friendship among all suburban members of this course, and to serve as a permanent medium through which the alumni and the students may remain in close contact. Many programs were prepared-lectures on merchandising, films of sales' manship, and some social as well as educational enter' tainment, which was often given with other schools.

These instructions were dictated every club period by Miss Anne Fraunfelder, spon' sor of the Girls' Knitting Club. Before Christmas, the group made sweaters, mittens, scarfs, and socks for gifts. After holiday vacations were finished, the industrious girls knitted colorful squares to form an afghan for the soldiers at Valley Forge Hospital. After the blanket project, the members turned their attention to making fashionable argyle socks for appreciative friends and relatives. This newly or' ganized club not only accomplished charity work and practical instruction, but it also provided relaxa' tion, for the girls gaily chatted and gossiped as their fingers flew, fashioning yarn into useful garments. Intermediate Bridge Club In the conventional groups of four, the Intermedi' ate Bridge Club, a combination of both juniors and seniors, met twice a month in the small cafeteria to play bridge. The club was formed by Mrs. Elizabeth Fowler to give the members an opportunity to im' prove playing technique, to further interest in, and to teach enjoyment of the game. Unfortunately only a limited number of applicants could be accepted, and some applications had to be refused by the process of elimination. Informality and sociability were the keynotes, and so each table was supplied with a deck of cards and a dish of candy. Players chatted and munched refreshments as they were bidding and playing. On special occasions when prizes were of' fered, the members competed for the highest scores. lt's a Hve of clubs, Mrs. Fowler Surplus of jokcrs Senior Bridge Club Combining recreation and industry, the forty'eight members of the Senior Bridge Club assembled twice a month in the cafeteria to play bridge, to knit, and to converse. Miss Eula Baer, the sponsor, selected for membership only seniors who had a knowledge of the game. Choosing their own groups of four, mem' bers strove to improve their playing technique by ex' perience, and to score their tallies correctly. Although no instruction was given, the players derived great benefit from the informal meetings and found that their games had increased in interest and accuracy. Encouraging sociability and improvement in bridge, the Senior Bridge Club provided great fun and relax' ation for the students while they learned to spend their leisure hours in a restful and enjoyable way. Beginners' Bridge Club To bid two hearts or one no trump? That is the question. To discard a queen or an ace? Such were the dilemmas which confronted members of the Beginners' Bridge Club. Thoughtfully ponder' ing over their varied hands of spades, hearts, dia' monds, and clubs, and consulting Goren's handbook, and tally cards, the players spent an enjoyable hour twice each month. The novices were taught the fun' damentals and conventions of the game, dealing, counting honor points, bidding, and scoring, by Miss Margaret Major. After studying some sample hands and problems in the newspapers, the players, in groups of four, gained some practical experience by actually playing the game. The members of the Beginners' Bridge Club found bridge to be fun. Eightyseiwewi And they live down in our alley Omholt uses Pepsodent Girls' Bowling Club HA strike! My score's one hundred and thirty! This was the dialogue of the enthusiastic bowlers. The characters were Lower Merion girls, mostly seniors. The scene was the Ardmore Bowling Alley, and the time was every Monday afternoon from threefthirty until five o'clock, from December until May. Miss Mary McCurdy provided the instrucf tions and helpful suggestions for the lady bowlers, who eagerly tried their luck and skill with the bowl' ing ball and pins. The girls, divided into groups of live, competed among themselves. The members learned so rapidly that, at the end of the season, the high score of one hundred and eightyfseven points had been attained. The Girls' Bowling Club provided fun and relaxation for its members. Bats Junior-Senior French Club La langue francaise dominated the monthly meetings of Le Cercle Francais. Led by Made' moiselle Ethel Baker, the members planned prof grams conducted completely in French to improve conversation and to increase vocabularies. The group was entertained by short French skits, colored slides of landscapes accompanied by French narrative, and French games. At Noel, the members sang French carols, and gave gifts among themselves. After each meeting, the club assembled in the small cafe' teria, where the members chattered in hesitant French while they consumed the refreshments. Cleef ful pleas in French and English, Encore une piece of cake, please,'l and MOU est mon ice cream? prof vided an end for the afternoon a la francaise. Badminton Club Introduced this year into Lower Merion by Miss Lucille Hendricks, the Badminton Club, composed of fortyfeight girls, provided recreation and exerf cise for its members. Twelve of the girls of the club's membership assembled each week in the girls' gym, where the more advanced players imf proved their skill by taking part in doubles' tourna- ments, and the beginners received instructions in the fundamentals of serving and scorefkeeping. The style of each player was observed, and hindering habits were corrected before poor habits could be formed. The girls and the instructor agreed that, in its inaugural year, the Badminton Club was very successful, because the members increased their interest, proficiency, and enjoyment of the sport.

Travel with the camera as it carries us on a visit to the various fields of friendly strife at Low- er Merion. We see the athletic fields-soccer, hockey, track, baseball, and lacrosse. The picture flashes quickf ly byg and we glimpse wrestling, gymnastics, tennis, basketball, and numerous other sports. In all, the camf era has shown us at least thirty different teams and competitive activitiesg without a doubt Lower Meriori off fers wider opportunities in the field of athletics than any other school in the Philadelphia area. For those students not good enough for the varsity teams there are junior varsity squads and intramural activities in touch football, basketball, and softball, and there are numerf ous active clubs, such as bowling, riding, and hiking. Not only is there always a wide field from which to choose, but there are often new sports added to the list, boys' lacrosse and crew being recent examples. With all this diversity of sports activities one might suspect that Lower Mericun would produce inferior teams, but such is not the case, as the records and trophy cases attest. They are full of the highest awards that can be given for achievement. Qver a period of years there have always been top teams at Lower Merion: basketball state champions four times, suburban football kingpins three times in the last six years- winners of the State gymnastic diadem ever since 1944, and girls' tennis champs eight times in the last nine years, having lost but two mat' ches during this period. lt is indeed an achievement of which to be proud. Pause a moment and follow the cam' ,R era, as it reviews the past year in the following pages. f f W .

Each opposing team pointed for the Lower Merion game. The boys, however, met every challenge and proved themselves to be a great team, a team that came through under pressure. It came from behind at Abington to win a game which seemed hopelessly lost, it surged back to beat a highly keyed Upper Darby team, and it over' came Chester's halftime lead to win. Northeast, Easton, Haverford, and Norristown all fell victim to the speed and deception of the Ivlaroon. Ridley Township brought a good team to Pennypacker field, but ground near the goal line was hard to gain, and Ridley was subdued, Overbrook was the weakest team met, and the regulars were mercifully withdrawn in order to keep the mounting score clown. Against Radnor at Villanova, in the season's finale, two of the best backs ever seen at Lower Merion, Al Adams and Len Shephard, led the team to a well deserved victory. Our great line proved the old adage that games are won and lost up front. It was a superb team, led by a great captain, and coached by an excellent staff. SOCCER Champions for Sixth Straight Year Robert A. Hill brought his proteges home as champions of the suburbs this year for the sixth straight time. Walt Michels, who was named to the allfscholastic soc' cer team, led the squad not only as cofcaptain along with Fred Fritsche, but also as high scorer with seven' teen goals. Much of the credit for the successful cam' paign belongs to the underclassmeng the seniors per' formed well, but injuries plagued many star performers, and here it was that their shoes were capably filled by sophomores or juniors. In many cases the victories were gained only after a hard fight, the league games being a notable example, as every win but the second Abington game was won by the margin of a single goal. The non' league games were not quite so tight, and several oppof nents fell by large scores. The team was so good that it was chosen, for the third straight year, to play in the Terry Cup Philadelphia Soccer Championship Tourna- ment. The Aces, meeting Northeast in the semiffinal, lost in a hardffought battle. Although dropping several games in nonfleague competition, an unquenchable spirit, typical of the Aces, carried the team to a fine record. w 1 sl J U 1 f- c 2 A 55 Ninetyffour F O O T B A L L SCHEDULE L.M.

Buoyed by a very convincing tri' umph over Berwyn in the first game, the girls went on to tie Upper Darby 2f2 in a match revealing a strong L. M. backfield, supported by good passing and a hardfdriving line. In the Radnor game the Maroon, sparked by Captain Mimbo Simons, attempted many shots, but were thwarted by a stubborn Radnor defense. Following the slowfmoving Eddystone fray, in which center forward Peggy Smythe made the only score for Lower Merion, Lansdowne conf quered the Amazons in a game hardfplayed all the way through, After holding Haverford to a scoreless tie, the Hockettes ended the season victoriously by defeating Cheltenham 1fO. Throughout the season frequent changes were made in the squad by Coach Lucile Hendricks, com' bining the abilities of all and giving playing experience to everyone, while insuring future teams true to Lower Merion tradition. Nancy Leith, a continually outstanding full' back with two years of varsity experience, was voted by the letter girls to be captain during the 1949 season. Harriers Have Harried Year The 1947 crossfcountry team at L.M. had a rather rug' ged season, winning but two of their dual races, losing four and tying one. The harriers surprised one and all at the season's termination, however, as the boys qualif fied three men for the State championship with an amazf ingly strong Hnish in the district finals. At Pennsylf vania State College, scene of the big race, Lower Merion once again pulled an upset as Maroon runner George Hall Hnished twentyfthird out of a hundred and fifty competitors. Though Hall developed swiftly into a steady performer during the year, it was Bulldog Captain Peter Knapp, who was the constant spark that kept the distance men on their toes. Concluding a three year crossfcountry career under Coach Albert Adam, Knapp proved again to be a great leader as well as a runner of championship caliber. Harry Graham and Jim Floeck, the two junior lettermen, showed promising form, endurance, and speed over the seven race route, and will be counted on to lead the club next year. These two, along with a group of hopeful novices, will round into shape in an effort to bring some distance victories to Lower Merion. Nmetyfseven f lf Q Maybe next year, Coach Hinchey ii V Snake, get that Jump MEN Just before the Radnor game Looks like winning streak is still intact BOYS' and GIRLS' BASKETBALL Boys Take Fourteen Although coach Jack Hinchey's first year as basketball mentor at Lower Merion produced the two highest scorers in the history of the school, the team could finish only second to Norristown in the Suburban Cne League. Tom Davis' 340 points and Len Shephard's 266 points both broke Don Evan's individual scoring record of 248 points in a single season, but no other player broke the 100 mark, lanky center Jimmy Marsten coming the closest, hitting for 82 markers. At times the team displayed signs of brilliance, noted especially as the fast break clicked against Chester and Easton, however, Cheltenham tripped the Aces twice for the first time in 23 years. Norrisf town also dropped L.M. twice, and these losses con' stituted the only defeats for the team in league competif tion. Perhaps the greatest satisfaction obtained during the year came as the Aces put on a brilliant lastfquarter rally to defeat Radnor for the first time in three years. All the nonfleague games were taken except for the ones with John Bartram and Allentown Central Cath' olic, both of which won rather convincingly. Even though the boys lost six games it was a fairly good season Girls Bounce Rings Around Opponents Only four points away from gold basketballs owing to a 1642 defeat by Abington, the baskettes completed their 1948 season with six wins, one loss, and a tie. Captain Cynie McKelvy's plucky lastfminute thrust in the Rad' nor game enabled the Maroon girls to reap a 19f19 cleadf lock. With the exception of these two schools, the team overcame their opponents with little difficulty, and clif maxed the season by easily subduing George School 4524. Helen Albee, sharpfshooting high scorer with 94 points, achieved her record with 22 markers in the final game and had she not been called out on fouls before the half of the Radnor game, possibly might have sparked an upset. Bunny Skillern, another sorceress of the sphere, finished the season with 48 points, and was closely followed with 47 points by Peggy Smythe. Cynie McKelvy, elusive cenf ter guard, strengthened the LM. defensive forces, while Mittie Jennings, although lacking in height, contributed speedy backboard retrieves and skillful interception. Ginny Merritt and Grace Griffith provided needed height for our defense, which capably hindered the opposition. Ninetyfcight BOYS' BASKETBALL Ridley Township .......... Merchantville ................

I One Hundred f f WRESTLING Things Looking Up Although the matmen could win only four matches this year, a new era in wrestling was begun at Lower Merion. Mr. Richard DiBattista, a Lower Merion graduate and for' mer national collegiate wrestling champion, in his first year as coach, used a team composed entirely of juniors and sophomores in the hope that the valuable experience gained this season would mold the Bulldogs into champ' ionship contenders in the suburbs next year. The boys made exciting meets out of several of their defeats and with a few good breaks might have been able to subdue Abington, Bryn Athyn, and Lansdowne. Upper Darby, the suburban champions, Cheltenham, and Haverford all thumped the Aces, however, many of the bouts were close- so close that we can hope that the training obtained this season will win the close ones next season. At the sub' urbans, Lower Merion did infinitely better than last year's team, as they compiled four points to last year's zero. John Batfa was the boy who brought these points to our side of the ledger, as he went to the finals only to lose. Richard Gordon was elected captain for next year. The wins were comparatively few, but the spirit was good. ii 1 ' I ., I , 2 ' ,ff X Coaches have precedence K' Wild Bill rides again P MEN Musclemen's triumphant triumvirate l'm flying high, but l've got a feeling I'm falling 1 0 GYMNASTICS Gymmen Soar Again Bowling over seven straight opponents in dual competif tion, Lower Merion's 1948 gymnasts turned in an unmarred record, their second consecutive undefeated season. Topping their foes by lopsided scores, the Drummen proved them' selves constantly superior in every event. Satisfying inf deed was the victory over Dobbins Vocational, Dobbins being the only school to defeat a Lower Merion gym team in the past six years of competition. The Maroon spread its influence this year, swamping Dickinson High, the New jersey State Champions, 5 9 to 37. In the third annual Low' er Merion Invitational Meet, the Bulldogs dominated the scene, capturing four Hrst places and eight out of the to' tal of eighteen medals. Team captain Gene Zeiner, one of the top high school gymnasts in the U. S., copped the high and parallel bars events in the same manner as he did in the AAU championships a week later. Fred Fritsche took the honors in the rope climb, sizzling up the hemp in four seconds flat to tie the state record. Though a number of stellar performers are graduating this year, Coach Henry Drumm has been developing a host of sophf omores and juniors to keep the team's winning ways.

GIRLS' SWIMMING GIRLS' LACROSSE Mermaids Make Whale of Splash Modern Squaws Equal Indians at Own Game The Lower Merion Mermaids, captained by Jill Kershaw, completed a successful year, copping the Suburban Chamf pionship by defeating Coatesville, 4423. The team, conf sisting mostly of juniors, began practice early in the win' ter. On Monday and Wednesday the squad traveled to 18th and Arch Street, quickly rented bathing caps which they had forgotten, and climbed into flattering green suits. They worked on perfecting dives, strengthening kick and stroke, and learning distance swimming. As the meets drew near, relay teams were assembled, and individual stars in speed and form were recognized. Though the team lost the meet with Trenton, the Eastern Interscholas' tic champions, the puddlers went on to defeat George School and Abington. Nancy Leith, a junior who starred continually in diving events throughout the year, won first place in both meets. The Westtown pool, which is fifty yards long as compared to the Y pool of twenty yards, presented a disadvantage to the L.M. girls al' though Gerry Grimaldi and Janet Herd came through with first places. A final winning streak brought renewed possibilities for the Eastern Interscholastic crown. Captained by Nancy Wedge, the Lower Merion girls' lacrosse team ended a successful season, winning six out of nine games and leading their opponents by nineteen points. As in the two previous years that lacrosse has been an official sport at L.Mi, Swarthmore, undefeated for fourteen years, gave the most trouble. In their two contests this year, the Maroon were defeated, holding Swarthmore in the second match through the outstanding defense work of goalie Mittie Jennings. The first game with stubborn MarplefNewtown revealed a wellforganized L.M. attack, in spite of the wet and muddy field. The Sticksters continued their onslaught against Friends' Central, Agnes Irwin, and Radnor, piling up convincing totals of 7f1, 1Of2, and 6fl. Mary Harris, high scorer for the season, contributed eight of those twentyfthree goals. After mastering the older, more experienced Penn Frosh, the Crossettes were overcome in their final conf test by the superior stickwork of Springside. The at' tack system of short quick passes and the box zone def fense used this year proved very effective and will be used in the 1948 season to be captained by Peg Smythe.

G reat service, Dave BOYS' and GIRLS' TENNIS Tennis Men Take Top Honors Swinging through a tough eleven match schedule, the Lower Merion raqueteers blasted their way to the sub' urban championship last spring. The club bowled over ten of the eleven opposing teams on the schedule bowing only to Haverford School. Unchallenged in league play, they proved themselves the master of the situation at all times. Aside from the great team record, the boys turned in a fine individual account. Pacing the tennis men was Jim Whitmoyer, crowned PIAA singles champion. Ben Foster and Arnold Kleiman came through the year un- defeated, while Whitmoyer lost but one and Captain Dan Cavilere but two matches during the season Dave Porter and Lynn Miller, leading doubles combination, compiled an average of seven and one, to be hailed as one of the top duos in the suburbs. Coached by Mr. Paul Harkins, the squad had no distinct style of play, being as varied as it was successful. Ranging from the deep, well placed shots of Whitmoyer to the flashy, swift pace set by Cap' tain Cavaliere, the Maroon had a wellfrounded court rouf tine. This year will see a team fighting to retain the coveted suburban championship crown for Lower Merion. Girls Make Season a Smashing Hit With another Suburban Tennis Championship stacked away among their racquets, the 1947 girls' tennis team, led by Bette Butera, found the weather its strongest op' position. In a struggle against the wet and cold, the whitefattired aces lacked time to practice, but coach Hen' dricks luckily had enough holdovers from the previous campaign to assure a successful team. Radnor and Lans- downe were the only opponents who prevented a shut' out season. In each case, Lower Merion netted a 4f1 victory, while in the remaining meets, a convincing score of 5fO became standard. Outstanding individual playing was exhibited by Nancy Blackwood, steady first singles contender known for her calm, smooth sets. In the Nor' ristown meet, she changed her shots from long to short, then hard to soft, thus routing her opponent 6f2, 6f1, with brain- rather than brawn predominating. The first doubles position was filled by captain Butera and Libby Slubin, 'who combined talents in form, service, and backhand. Jean Ridge, captain-elect for 1948, and four other letterfgirls will return this season to form the nucleus of what promises to be another successful team.

MEN Coach Marzucco catches Cap' tain Hawley in an unusually still position. Speedsters set for the gun. TRACK Cindermen Cop Second Place Last spring brought a successful record to the track team, even though the Aces played second fiddle to Nor- ristown throughout the year. Cpening the season, the team engaged in the traditional interclass meet which the juniors surprisingly won. The team took every dual meet except the XVest Catholic contest and triumphed in its only triangular meet. At the State Championships, Lower Merion was well represented by Bob Hackman, Jack VValton, Kit Marshall, and Gene Zeiner, whose com- bined efforts netted District Cne ten points. Although coming in second at State College, Bob Hackman turned in the best performance ofthe year withthe extraordinary time of 14.7 seconds in the 120 high hurdles. Plagued by injuries, the team was seldom at full strength, as Gene Zeiner broke his hand, joe Hawley contracted German measles, and Bennie Stephens sprained his ankle, how- ever, the season was a most advantageous one for the training of the underclassmen who will make up the team this year. Nine letter iuen are returning for the tough schedule confronting the squad this spring. This fine nu- cleus should produce another successful track campaign. BASEBALL Batmen Win Without Robbin' The 1947 baseball season, while not too successful, was a colorful one. The club finished with a .SOO average, nine games on either side of the ledger. In league play, the Maroon compiled six victories against four defeats to finish second to the powerful Ghosts of Abington. The season was well rounded, featuring both pitching duels and slugging contests. Lower Merion dropped the first game of the season, as Northeast scored a brilliant no' hit victory, Sfl. The Aces dropped the next two games, but pulled out of their rut with a victory over Radnor in the initial league contest. From here the team went through a series of spurts and slumps winning the games that count. The big bat of Len Shepard and the constant spark supplied by Captain Don Townsend were big facf tors in the squad's success. Townsend, a standout both on the mound and in the outfield, always seemed to be at the right place at the right time, while the big, capable Shephard was, as ever, unequalled both behind the plate and at it. Nine of the fourteen lettermen were juniors, which fact means Mr. Gendell Reeves, coach of the bullf dogs, has a substantial basis for his 1948 diamondmen. One Hundred Six l .Q 4 n .

N 'A-3 I. One Hundred Eight CREW L. M. Skims Schuylkill 1947-A new sport at Lower Merion. The red and white took to the Schuylkill last spring under the sponsorship of the Bachelor's Barge Club, and the Hrst crew season in Lower Merion High's sporting history was launched. Holding the reins on the crew was Mr. Herbert Horner. Mr. W. E. Garret Gilmore, former national sculling champion and the club's 'Lpro, helped the boys no end. As is true of every Hrst year sport, the season was not too sucf cessful, the seafaring bulldogs copping their only dual meet of the year, with Roman Catholic, but losing to more experienced and faster clubs in the Stotesbury Cup and Philadelphia Championship heats. Entering at least one eight, one four, and a quad in each of the championship regattas, Lower Merion was the Hrst public school ever to be represented in these two annual classics. For this spring the crew has a full schedule planned, races being arranged with the squads along boathouse row, as wcll as with many crews from neighboring rivers. With a more exf perienced group, and the typical willftofwin, Lower Mer- ion is threatening to put an end to the perennial metro' politan domination of local rowing in the near future.

BOYS' LACROSSE Few Victories But Lots of Fight Although winning only two games last spring, the laf crosse team displayed a fighting spirit, making a conf test of every game. The boys played wellg however, they were handicapped by a lack of familiarity with the game, as it is not taught in either junior high school. Open' ing the season, the teani traveled to Baltimore, where lacrosse is an important sport, to meet St. Paul's J.V. The fine offence of our boys surprised the opposition, and it was only after a hard fight that St. Paul's pref vailed. Although we lost, the high point of the season was reached against Penn's Junior Varsity on a sloppy, rainy day, when the Aces played exceptionally well, es' pecially jack Griffith and Al Fulton. The rivalry with Swarthmore is the greatest, as it is the only other high school on the scheduleg and last year L.M. split the twof game series. Perhaps the team would have done better had Baton Preston not been hurt in an unfortunate accident with one of his own teammates and had not several other key men been ineligible. This spring everyone is hoping for a more successful season, despite the fact that many important starters and several substitutes were graduated.
