The Freshies arrived, some from Siles and some from F easter- ville, they entered the portals of this institution of education to in- crease their knowledge. They were quite bashful at first, but when we really became acquainted with them they were a swell bunch, and forgot all about being bashful. Financial difficulties!! Freshmen worrying about finance? Yes' sir, a penny saved is a penny earned. To carry us through we elected a very capable executive body consisting of: Albert Fesmire, President, Raymond Winner as Vice President, lrene Stewart, Secre- tary, and Jeannette Hutchins as treasurer. We, as verdant Freshmeni with the aid of our competent sponsor, lVlr. Anglemoyer, introduced the Easter Egg parade which certainly did net us a nice little sum of cash-a, nest egg around which to build for our Washington trip. Those Freshmen were some salespeople. Behold the grand climax-june l4, l933! The girls in sheer pastel dresses and white slippers, the boys in dark suits-some in their first longies Cand did they blunderj tripped lightly to the tune of the Festal March from the Junior High School into the Senior High School. To give us a right hearty welcome into the Senior High, the class of '35 upon the recommendation of Miss Fackler, their sponsor, inaugurated for that evening a new social function, the Soph-Frosh hop. To prolong the memories of this eventful day, we had a group picture taken. SEPTEMBER 1933 !! Salute the Silly Sophsn !! No longer playing the role of the Freshie, we enterediour Sophomore year with a considerably small- er group than that of last year. We were smaller in number but our spirit was as strong as ever. Our class was divided, and Miss ,lohnson and Mr. Slavbaugh were the teachers named for the class. We had our regular rounds of parties' one of which was a grand Halloween party in Strathman's barn. We climaxed our year by giving the graduating class of Freshmen a hop. So endeth our career as Sophornores. Pane Twwzty-two 1936 SEPTEMBER I 934 !! Time marches on!! So does the class of '36!! We are now jolly Irs. with Jeannette Hutchins as our capable president and Miss johnson as our sponsor. jean receives the credit of the many mon- ey making schemes of the junior class. Remember those flashy L, M. hats, pencils, pennants, and neckties? The juniors take the laurels for these things which register school spirit. Washington's Birthday gave us another chance to see how good we were at social activities. We gave our first dance, and its was what you would call a howling success. In April, we gave our junior Play, and did our amateur actors and actresses do justice to the script of the author of They will Grow up !! Last but not least came the junior-Senior Promenade. SEPTEMBER I 935 They Have Grown Up, this dignified group! We were a busy bunch this year, our year book being our greatest burden. We were also very busy with our money making social functions, we fos- tered several dances and just as successful as these, were the several card parties we gave. That most looked forward to thing, in the life of any high school student-the trip to Washington-was very greatly enjoyed by the entire class. We also enjoyed the fine promenade given us by the juniors. It was everything that we could expect. The fun of our lives came on class day, wheny with the cooperation of every mem- ber of the class, we put on a very fine show. JUNE I7, 1936 The grand finale of the class of '36. Attired in caps and gowns, we solemnly walked the last mile of our high school life. The fine speeches were quite representative of the work of the speakers, in their high school careers. We have thoroughly enjoyed our years at this institution, and we have completed our high school careers with no regrets. The school owes us nothing, it has paid us Well. It is our place to make it feel proud of us in the future, by our activities in the outside world. T llflflt' 7'wmfy-fhrfe THE ELMLEO Class Prophecy After working in the office of the United States Government air- port, which is operated by Raymond Winner and Edmund Tiers, I. was given the opportunity of a short vacation. During this vacation I was determined to visit some of my former classmates from dear old I... M. To my surprise and delight I met nearly all of them in person and received news of the others. I left the airport on Saturday after finishing work, went home and started packing my luggage for my trip.. Early Sunday morning I left and went westward over the Lincoln Highway. To get to the points of interest I wished to see, I' of course, stepped on the gas. Before long a motor cycle pulled up alongside of me and ordered me to stop.. I knew that face at once. It was none other than Fred Swanson. He didn't recognize me and called me down properly. Taking a summons out he asked my name. What, he said, You're not'Pat from L. M.? ,lust the same whether I was Pat or anyone else, I got my ticket and orders for speeding on the highways. I I I lm I traveled nearly all day Monday without stopping. As I ap- proached a small town I saw a sign Poultry and Fresh Eggs. That sign made me think for a while before I recognized the name printed below, George Hess, Prop. Then I remembered the George Hess from L. M. had alwavs wanted a poultry farm just like his Dads I knew he must be making a success of his business so I drove in to compliment him. I was greeted by Mrs. Hess, in our school days known es ,leannette Hutchins. This was, indeed a surprise, how Jeanne and George did fight at school and what a success they made of marriage. I was invited to stay for dinner and to spend the evening. As we sat down none other than our own Celestine Whyte was serv- ing the table. The same old Celie with her quick actions had still steered clear of all men who presented themselves, as she said in school, she would never marry. The I-less's and myself were, of course, talking our good plcl days at I... M. over when I asked ,Ieanne if she had seen or heard of Gladys Lenhart. Wl1v. didn't you know, ,Ieanne said, she and John Kamnik were married shortly after our graduation and theV now have a family and are farming one mile down the road. ' About 7:30 P. M. Mr. I-less decided we should take in a show for entertainment. The Kamnik farm was pointed out so that I might stop and see them the next day. Pagqr' Ti'ZUI'11fj'-f0'Il1' 1936 We got to the theatre just in time for the feature to begin. A sweet, clear voice was heard. Ir was Mary Mellor the famous Metro- politan Opera Singer opening the production with its theme song. Hazel Avinger, Paramount Star, had the leading role in the pho- toplay, this picture proved her success in this field. Next on the bill came several acts of vaudeville. Act upon act, laugh after laugh, how we enjoyed it. -- A dance - a slim, agile girl, we knew her a once, our dancing daughter Esther Herman. The next act proved another big success, Iola Jefferies at the piano making the jazz roar through the building and as fast as she played, our second Bill Robinson danced till I was dizzy. His tap- ping feet claimed him to be johnny Boyce. I was told later that Cath- erine Lucas had settled down in a cozy little house near IoIa's apart- ment. I returned to the Hess's to spend the night and was awakened by the mail carrier-David Boyce. While waiting for breakfast I settled down to read the paper. Sports- Dick Hirst who pitched a shut-out game last year has signed a contract with the Philadelphia Athletics. Olive Chambers has made the all-national Basketball Team and will compete for U. S. in the Olympics this year. New Church to be dedicated Saturday, Rev. Al- bert Fesmire. will ofliciate. I then looked at the marriage licenses and found Mary Emma Riclgway's name' who was to marry a doctor from the hospital from which she graduated, in a few days. After a few hours I thanked the Hess's for their hospitality. Bade them good-bye and went onward. I stopped at the Kamnik's at about l:30 p. m. and stayed till evening. While I was there the children came home from school. At once they started to talk about their teachers. I found that Thelma Glenn was teaching the fourth grade and Eleanore Danenberger. the kindergarten. The telephone rang. It was Robert Lowe, veterinarian, inquiring about ,Iohn's sick cow. Night drawing on I went into town to spend the night. I entered a large hotel and discovered it was owned and operated by ,Iohn Dan- enberger. His secretary, Elva Biles and pretty brunette nurse none other than Elva Black. We talked for some time about our classmates and old times. The following Monday morning I returned to the airport and spent the day telling my employers of my trip and hinting very strongly that' a similar trip in the near future would be most pleasant. Page Twmfy-fifiv THE ELMLEO Our Washington Trip The ideal and hope of our high school career became a reality on May 21, l936, when the class boarded the train bound for Washing- ton. After four years of hard work to provide the necessary funds for this trip, it was with the greatest satisfaction and happiness that we settled back to enjoy this long-hoped-for event. Our first visit upon our arrival in Washington was to the Supreme Court building. A tour to the Congressional Library and the cele- brated Folger Shakespearean Library followed. The activity of the afternoon was our trip to Mount Vernon. Our class had decided to make this trip by boat and were glad of their decision. The impressive beauty of Mount Vernon made that phase of our trip truly memorable. Inspection of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing initiated the series of tours of the second day. Visits to the Washington monu- ment, Pan-American and Red Cross buildings, and the Corcoran Art Gallery preceded our anticipated visit to the White House. After lunch we went to the Old National and New Museum. Everyone en- joyed the sightseeing trip of the day when we gazed wih admiration at the various embassies, and homes of prominent people. The Arlington National Cemetery' the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and the Lincoln Memorial were the most outstanding points of interest to all the Seniors because we realized, as never before, the significance of these memorials. The last and, therefore, the most regretted day arrived, but it was in no way less exciting than the others. We spent the morning seeing as much as possible of the grounds, buildings, and notable features of our own U. S. Naval Academy. It was a regretful but appreciative, happy, and enlightened group that, on the afternoon of May 23, boarded the train for home.

The reason for choosing this title is that Peace is an important problem to not only the diplomats of the world, but also to the people of our community. It is the peo- ple who are graduating from High Schools all over the world today and in years to come who have to decide between peace and war. We therefore deem it necessary to make a study of The Peace of the World. The student speakers are:-Hazel Avinger who will speak on the Peace of the Nations as the Aim of Civilization and Political Organiza- tions for lnternational Peace, Olive Chambers who will speak on Education in regards to World Peaceg Albert Fesmire who will speak on the Cultural and Spiritual Organization for Peaceg Jeannette Hut- chins who will speak on Our Part in World Peaceg and Mary Emma Riclgway who will introduce the theme. A The graduates and speakers will wear caps and gowns the same as the last graduating class.

Of these ten were many ac- tive and spirited young people and the class felt the need of a concentrated drive. After a Halloween party, which was purely social, the members began the sale of peppermints which has always been successful. Since then they have taken up the sale of Life of Will Rogers. . . hriarch 21, brought the Juniors with their play, Oh, Professorv which was successful without the aid of lXIother Nature. The play was repeated on April 3, the pro- ceeds being shared with the Red Cross for Hood relief. On hlay 8 they gave their .lun- ior dance which was quite a suc- cess. Later the Juniors entertained the Seniors at the yearly Prom which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. This class has shown admirable cooperation and under the able leadership of their president, Bette Calvert and Sponsor, Miss Crowe. have had a very successful and en- joyable year.

Maman ljlllll' Furry-Iwo 1936 This year's team was captained by Olive Chambers, and coached by Miss Virginia E. Coleman. All the members of the first team were veterans of the 1934-35 season except Elva Pletcher, whose work at center greatly aided the gen- eral team work. One of the varsity members of last year, Ruth Loesch, who played center, moved to Allentown, thus leaving the entire team, except the center composed of Seniors. The girls were very successful this year and won the championship of Lower Montgomery County. Another record the girls hold is the fact that they haVen't lost a game on their floor for four' years. i Each girl played her part in the individual position, cooperated in team play, and aided by the training and encouragement of Miss Coleman, experienced a lively season with many hard fought games. The only league game lost was at Upper Moreland. Lower Moreland girls suffered a slight handicap while their last season's captain, Jeannette Hutchins, was incapacitated. As the season pro- gressed her place was taken by Virig'nia Montayne, who promises to be a star player next year. Although five of the six players of this season are June graduates, a very good team will carry! on, bringing new victories to Lower Moreland. The Senior girls received baslcetballs with uchampionsn engraved on tlhem. We closed our championship season with a banquet on March 24, 1936.

Only given an outside chance to be of any account, the team was leading the League before going down to defeat at the hands of Hatfield and N. Wlales in two pulsating games. I Defeated by N. Wales and Hatfield on the former's own floor the Lions en- countered the Walers at Lower Nloreland. A victory for Lower Nloreland would have caused a three-way tie for first place. Unfortunately the Lions did not win. They were leading at half-time, 12-7, but were overhauled and finally defeated, Z3-22. The two and only other defeats which aided in our slide down the League ladder to third place were at the hand of Hatfield, ZZ-19, and N. Wales on their tioor, 25-21. All the many other games played resulted in well earned victories. This team should have proven to future teams that pre-season dope does not mean a whole lot. We hope these teams will go about their basketball accord- ingly. A word of thanks for Mr. Alnglemoyer who has worked so diligently to help the team establfsh so enviable a record.

Pane l m'lv-sezfm THE ELMLEO C LU BS The Science Club The purpose and function of this organization is to bring before the students of L. M. those activities relating to the sciences which are inconvenient or im- possible to bring up in the regular classes. It is intended also for those students who have not continued the Academic course and may still have some contacts with the developments of science during this Weekly period of experimentation and discussion. The club has undertaken projects which would not be practicable to com- plete in the regular routine of classwork. One Worthwhile achievement is the value derived from visiting places of interest in Philadelphia and vicinity of a scientific nature. The club has visited the Franklin Institute which is a museum of scientihc wonders dedicated to the memory of Benjamin Franklin. The list of trips also included the Academy of Natural Sciences and the Radio Station WCAU. Dancing Club The Dancing Club of Lower Moreland High School is the largest club of the high school.

The Dancing Club sponsors are Mr. Anglemoyer and Miss Coleman. We hope for a bigger and better Dancing Club in future years.

S e cretary and Treasurer At the Christmas season the council collected toys from pupils throughout the Elementary and High School. These toys were given to needy children in our community. It was very much appreciated. The Christmas tree in the hall of the High School was also donated and decorated by the Council. Mr. Anglemoyer presented' to the Council an outline which was to be carried out through the year. By this outline many things have been improved through- out the school. The Council also took an active part in the collection and framing of pic- turesg these were pictures of the Athletic teams who have left our halls of learn- ing. These pictures were placed on the Walls outside of the gym doors. The Student Council sponsored a series of Tea Dances. These dances were held in the high school gym and were a big successg the music for these dances was supplied by Hessie and His Chicks. The Student Council of Lower Moreland is a very active organization and has helped many of our students and We Wish them more success in the years to come.
