DEDICATIO X HHTJV ROBERT A. HILL The class of 1949 is proud to have had a close association with a man who, in the geometry class, on the soccer field, in individual conference, and in personal relationships, stands for kindness, friendship, and understanding. He has been not only a challenging and stimulating teacher, but he has been also a friend genuinely interested in our problems and progress. It is with both pride and respect, therefore, that we, the senior class, dedicate the 1949 Enchiridion to Robert A. Hill. 0 srunmsl rn: nv .md Co-captains Bill Buck and Hal Lampe present the Radnor football trophy to Mr. Gilbert after the team won it for the 23rd time in the hard fought, but friendly 52 year rivalry of Lower Merion and Radnor.

Enchi- ridion, for handbook or manual, is literally a jaw-break- ing word for what the staff has found to be a back-breaking, but nonetheless pleasant, job. Could anything have been quite so harrowing yet so much fun as those Wednesday afternoons when someone would dash into the Yearbook office TWO whole minutes late? What kept you, and didn't you bring any cookies? was the natural reaction of a hungry staff. Arranging green copies of white copies of yellow copies of names constituted the work for many a Wednesday afternoon. Lists of names and literally piles of activity sheets-all to be checked, com- piled, and checked again-adorned odd corners of the office in various stages of completion. While the literary staff was pounding away at the typewriters, mad artists and dashing photographers spot- ted life around Lower Merion, and the business staff racked their brains on the floor above for ways to pay the bills. Hard work? Yes,-but worth the reward of a good yearbook-one that at least we will cherish. Then, too, there's another reward, the friendship of the teachers who helped and encouraged us.

With financial difficulties and inexperienced reporters to contend with, the Merionite found it necessary to decrease the number of publications from weekly to bi-monthly during the year. Ruled by the clock, the editors attempted to collect all the literary material on Monday for the printer. Tuesday was last minute riot day with returning galleys to be proofread, the late news and sports articles to be assembled, a snappy In My Opinion to be whipped up by Editor Paul Alpers, and headlines to be set. The cut- and-paste brigade, recruited from the Merionite class, turned out on Wednesday during club period to put the pgperittggether and send it off to the printer with a sigh 0 re 18 . Besides the reporters, the ad-selling business staff, the circulation staff, the distribution staff, and the photog- raphers, through gentle but insistent pressure from the faculty advisers, miraculously met their Friday morning deadline.

FOOTBALL 1948's gridders looked wonderful at times and poor at others but came through with the creditable, if not outstanding, record of seven victories and three losses, two of which were dropped by a single point. L.M. opened by bowing to Northeast in a 7-6 heart- breaker, but bounced back to capture four straight games before losing to a powerful Ridley Township eleven, 19-13. Topheavy triumphs over perennial rivals, Norristown and Upper Darby, were followed by Chester's 7-6 upset over the Maroon to deadlock L.M., Chester, and Abington for Suburban Class A honors. The season ended on a sweet note, however, as the Bulldogs rebounded to swamp Radnor, 33-6. SCHEDULE L.M.

SOCCER For the seventh consecutive year, the Suburban Soccer Championship belonged to Lower Merion. The Hillmen encountered stern opposition from Abington, Haverford, and Upper Darby, but finally copped the crown by deadlocking Abington, 1-1, in their final league contest. The Aces once more participated in the Terry Cup playoffs and once more met defeat in the semi-finals. Girard College, co-champions of Philadelphia, administered a 3-0 whitewashing to eliminate the booters. L.M. was represented on the All-Scholastic squad as Tom Smith was picked for a fullback post. Smith, Milt Westover, Brinton Fergu- son, and Baylis Thomas made the All-Suburban team. SCHEDULE L.M. Opporlcnfs L.M.

Thomas, Moore, Okadgflk Baffa, Wright, Hodgson, Elmo, Hoqynsisb Lower Merion once more was the doormat of the Suburban cross-country league, but the Aces at least came up with an individual harrier who was capable of competing with the top runners in the district. Captain William O'Connor consistently finished in the first three in dual meets and placed fourth in the District One finals. Once more the reason for the lack of Maroon success over hill and dale was scantiness of manpower. So few boys came out for the team that the Bulldogs' squad was less than half the size of those representing other schools. To make matters worse, Harry Graham, a letter winner last season, suffered a heel injury and was inactive. Only two losses marred the 1948 record of the girls' hockey team. In eight frays, the hockettes were blanked, 2-0, by a powerful Radnor squad, and bowed to Haverford in a free-scoring, 6-3 contest. Excluding the eight goals notched by the two teams to down the Maroon, only two tallies were recorded against L.M. Berwyn scored one as it fell, 4-1, and Abington registered one in its 2-1 defeat. Upper Darby, Cheltenham, Norristown, and Lansdowne suffered shutouts at the hands of the Merionites. Three letter girls, Anita Page, Sally Richards, and Jean Schaeffer, were juniors. All will compete again next year in the quest for a perfect season. SCHEDULE SCHEDULE L.M. 0lJ1JfI'7lI'71fS L.M.

BOYS' BASKETBALL Although the 1949 basketball team compiled the worst won-lost record in Lower Merion history, the cagers registered the scholastic basketball upset of the year when they snapped Norristown's 34-game winning streak by downing the Eagles, 34-29. That victory and the 45-44 loss to Norristown in the first meeting between the two teams highlighted the disappointing season. The Aces finished in fourth place in Suburban One with a slate of six wins and six defeats. Copping only two non-league encounters, however, the hoopsters gained eight victories and sufered fourteen losses. Bob Dempsey's 138 points led the scorers, with four other boys topping 100.

Tops in excitement was the Norristown contest, in which Rosie Grahn's foul shot after the final whistle gave the baskettes a 32-31 triumph. Frannie Benner led the scorers with 55 points, while Bev Miller notched 54. Captain Grace Grifiith and Anita Page were the outstanding guards.

The wrestlers lost many points before the season started when captain Dick Gordon, undefeated in his sophomore year, suf- fered a knee injury in football practice, but after a ragged start, the Aces hit their stride in mid-season when they registered successive victories over Bryn Athyn, Yeadon, Abington, Cheltenham, and Haverford Prep. 175-pound Bill Gallihue was top scorer and the only Maroon finalist in the Districts. GYMNASTICS Although the Maroon gymnasts failed to win the State championship for the first time in six years, the Drummen completed their third straight season in which they were undefeated in duel competition and extended their dual meet streak to 23. L.M. had little trouble with any of its opponents except the Navy Plebes and Girard College. The Aces copped the unofiicial team title in the fourth Lower Merion Invitation meet. In the State championships, how- ever, the Bulldogs were three points behind the victorious Pottsville team, despite a strong Maroon point cluster in the side horse, in which captain Dan Taylor successfully defended his State crown.

Eugene Zeiner, in the pole vault, and Bill Gallihue, in the javelin throw, both established Suburban and District rec- ords. Unfortunately, the success of the Maroon squad rested in the brilliance of these two individuals. Zeiner shattered the State mark with a tremendous 12'10 effort and outjumped the best high school vaulters in the Philadelphia area in the Franklin Field championship meet. Gallihue won the javelin in the latter meet. The team, however, finished Although the baseball team compiled its highest winning percentage in three years, the 1948 season was far from successful. The Aces won eleven con- tests and dropped nine, but in league competition the Reevesmen triumphed in only tive games while drop- ping seven. Three straight losses to Upper Darby, Haverford, and Abington practically ruined the Maroon's chances of copping the suburban diadem. Cap ain Len Shephard paced the team in hitting ' .420 average, while Joe Callahan topped the l with tive victories and two setbacks.

BOYS ' TENNIS GIRLS' TENNIS Another suburban championship remained at L.M. last spring as the Maroon tennis team again de- fended its court crown successfully. Led by cap- tain Jim Whitmoyer, runner-up for the PIAA State singles title, the Aces conquered every opponent except Pottstown on their eleven match schedule. Perhaps the most encouraging feature of the season was the outstanding play of the underclassmen. Ben Frankel, Lewis Gaty, and Ray Kleiman, sophomores, and Nort Cooper, a junior, performed in the singles and teamed with each other and with seniors Bill Alexander and Jim West in doubles.

The 1948 record of seven victories, one defeat, and one tie, however, secured second place behind the undefeated Eagles. Captain Jeanne Ridge closed her scholastic court career with only one loss in three years of competition and was with- out a doubt the rackettes' outstanding performer.

Marple-Newtown, Rad- nor, and Springfield provided little opposition for the Maroon maidens, While Friends' Central, Agnes Ir- win, and Baldwin presented unusually stiff competi- tion. Individual standouts were Cynie McKelvy, at- tack and center on the Philadelphia girls' All-Schol- astic lacrosse team, captain Peggy Smythe, first home and high scorer with nineteen markers, and Mittie Jennings, cover point on the All-Scholastic.

In the first six games, the Maroon improved steadily and maintained a .500 mark with three-quarters of the season in the books. During the last week of the campaign, however, the Aces fell apart in the last halves of' two games. Swarthmore College Freshmen made up a 3-1 third-quarter deficit to edge the Merionites, 4-3.

A two- point victory over Norristown was the only bright spot in the first half of the schedule. The Aces, however, bounced back from their disappointing be- ginning to conquer Haverford twice and Yeadon and Quakertown once. Co-captain Francis McPherson provided a perfect finale by capturing the individ- ual crown as teammate George Reimann took third. SCHEDULE L.M.

GOLF Lower Merion's golf team again won the Suburban Championship in 1948 but had to stage an uphill bat- tle to retain the crown. Led by long hitter, Bud Toohill, the linksmen opened their league season by outdriving Cheltenham, 105-45. Haverford, how- ever, topped L.M., 9-6, to put Abington in first place. Although the Aces edged Abington 8-7, the Ghosts held the top position. The Maroon had to down Hav- erford, the team that had beaten them before, by 105 points to take over the league leadership. L.M. walloped the Fords, 13-2, and outstroked Abington, 115-35, to retain the suburban title. Letter men Nancy Slaw and Bob Watts will compete in 1949. SCHEDULE L.M.
