All your irritation will he smotheri ' d under a warm fei ' ling of appreciation. e may say, ' AVe ' re not on tlu ' hiughts hut climh- ing, hut shouldn ' t wc give a litth ' credit to mother and dad for steadying the ladder, for cheering us on?

THOINIAS, to you who could have at- M tallied greatness in more opportune places, but who ehose to remain in our humble group; to you, who aside from vac- cinating us against disease, have helped vaccinate us against igno- rance, we, the Senior Class of 1937, dedicate this book, our most cherished possession. Our feeling toward you shall ever be that of gratitude, and rev- erence, for we know now that the wisdom and knowledge we have received during these past twelve years have been made possible only through the efforts of you and your neighbors. J ' hank you. Sir, for so generously offering to each of us an oppor- tunity to a higher, more noble life. Page f ' our n ID E s s II e E To the Meinherfi of fhe Claims- of 19.37: Xotliing is more satisfying tlian truo friends and enduring friendships. Witliont tlieni, life wonld trnly l)e l)arren; with them, onr earthly careers are tremendously enriched. Youth is the mo.st favorable time to mak( ' friends and the common experiences of a school career form a strong foun- dation ni)on which to build friendships. During the four years yon have spent together in Mar|)le-Xewtown High School, the intimate contacts, jxrssible oidy in a small .school, have caused yon to know each other closely. The fact has In ' cn brought out clearly that every mendier of your class has many fine ciualities which are recpiired in the formation of true friendships. Do not let your association, one with the other, cea.se to exi.st. You will find that some f)f the mo.st pleasing ex])eriences of later years will come from friend.shi]j.s established during your high .school days. I hope that the years .s])ent by you at ] lari)le-Xewtown will leave such an imi)re.s.sion that they will form some of yonr most ha])py and lasting memories. Page Five 0 9. Ruth E. Sheldon 10.

Paye Eiyhleeu JUNIOR CLASS SOPHOMORE CLASS FRESHMAN CLASS Page Xinefeeii “A PAIR OF SIXES” “BLOW GIRLS’ r llE liigh school play, “A Pair of Sixes,” a comedy in three acts, was given on Friday, December 4, 1936, in the High School Gymnasium. Onr play couldn’t have been the success it was if we hadn’t had the helj) of Mr. Brown and Miss Yeing’st as coaches, and Miss Pierce as scenery director. We wish to express our appreciation to these three who devoted much of their time and effort in our behalf. The i)lay was one of the finest ever given at Marple-Ncwtown. The seniors who took part in the i)lay, and of whom we are very jjroud, are: Scott Worrall, Ralph List, Horace Hoskins, Jane Ho.skins, Wilbur McLaughlin, and Constance Bierck. Others in the cast who contributed their talent were: Fred Pressey, IVilliam Clements, Betty x nn Lewis, Edmund Broadbelt, and Ann Crowley. The property committee consisted of Melvin Doughten, Virginia Peirce, and Anna MacLaren. ME DOWN” ' HE operetta chosen for this year was a modern piratical absurdity called f “Bl ow Ale Down.” xAccortiing to the res])onse of the audience, the operetta was the snappiest production ever offered. The music, directed by Aliss Clay- ton, the speaking parts by Air. Brown, the dancing by Aliss Kelly and Aliss Sheldon, the scenery by Aliss Pierce and Air. Potter, and the costumes by Aliss Davis, made it most successful. The leading roles were played by L mberto DiBonaventura, Louise Collier, Con- stance Bierck, Wilbur AIcLaughlin, Bill Clements, Ralph List, Jimmy Toms, Jane Hoskins, Horace Hoskins, Scott Worrall, and Alarjorie Burgess. “The Three Charms,” the Dance Team, Eleanor Hunter’s solo taj) dance, and Jimmy Toms’ acting as Alas- ter of Ceremonies, made the Cabaret Show the most enjoyable part of the operetta. BASKETBALL W . yOR the first time in several years Alarple-Newtown has had a greater turnout a 1 of girls. Among the.se are some bright future ])rospects for a winning team. The girls eoo])erated very well with their new coach, AIi.ss Aeing.st, who helped them greatly in their mo.st trying times. The team j)layed two-court basketball instead of three-court, and the new game met with great approval. The scores of the winning games were very good; while other games were very exeiting. The regular players were Douglas, Wenger, Aliller, Bierck, Hoskins, and Burgess. Alembers of the scpiad who will be graduated this year are Hoskins, Bierck, Aliller, Douglas, Schnerr, and AlacLaren. The girls who have earned their letters are those on the regular team and their capable manager, irginia Peirce. i’age Twenty A PAIR OF SIXES BLOW ME DOWN GIRLS’ BASKETBALL P(iye T ircitl jj-ouc FOOTBALL BOYS’ BOYS’ ' W ' XITH only four regulars from last year’s team, Mr. Harvey, aided by Mr. Raffensperger, started early in September to develop about twenty-five green boys, some of whom played last year as subs. Every man had to fight for his berth, and no positions were known before the opening game with Spring City. Led by Captain O’Donnell, the team always went down with the fighting M.-N. spirit, and lost the games with Yeadon, Sharon Hill, and Swarthmore by bad breaks and inexperience. This year, the annual Thanksgiving Day game with Springfield was played in the Swarthmore College Field. In the first half Springfield scored a touchdown, and during the remainder of the game the boys from M.-N. threatened, but failed to score. Joe Reed was elected captain for 1937, and we are looking forward to a better season. BASKETBALL r lllS year’s basketball season was one of the most successful that Marple- Newtown ever had. Lhider the guiding hands of Coach Harvey and Captain Hill, the boys came through with eight victories, a second place in their League, and a 22-25 score against Upper Darby in the Kiwanis Tournament. Hancock was chosen guard on the League’s first team, and Hill and Hoskins were given honorable mention on the second team. Hill, Hancock, and McLaughlin saw regular varsity service last year, while Bas- cone, Hoskins, List, Reed, and Rich were then second team men. The latter five, in addition to Clements and Dilworth, became regulars on this year’s varsity team. Although Dilworth, Rich, List, Hoskins, and AIcLanghlin will be graduated this year, we still look for another successful season next year. The second team offers many promising prospects. BASEBALL he old fighting spirit is again invading the diamond at M.-N. as Coach Har- M vey’s boys went off to a flying start by defeating Schwenksville with a 6-3 score. The second game, although the boys played well, went to Clifton with a score of 9-5. Our next game was with Whitpain and by the splendid score of 20-7, we were victorious. Yeadon was our next rival. The score was tie in the last inning but in the extra inning our boys rallied and took the game with a 5-2 score. The first team is composed of: Reed, Hill, Talbot, Sturm, Rich, Clements, Mani- gault, Hancock, Wilson, McLaughlin and Bascone (Captain). McLaughlin is the only senior and with such good material, Mr. Harvey looks forward to a very successful year in ’38.

She is prophesying the future of Marple-Newtown’s Class of ’37. Li.sten to what she .says. Robert Dilworth will some day be the head announcer on Camj)beir.s Soup Program. Hannah Kirk and Alfred Rich will be the comedy dancing team for Metro- (loldwyn-Mayer. I see for Anna A ' lacLaren high flight as air hostess on Pilot Wilbur McLaughlin’s transcontinental plane which is kept busy carrying the gay divorcee, Constance Rierck, back and forth to Reno. Dot Douglas should beware of a tall, dark, and handsome man. Virginia Peirce will some day be telling the “Tale of Peetsie Weetsie Rabbit” to Peter, Jr. Jane Hoskins will be a great success as popular singer with Fred Waring’s (rang. Melvin Doughten will see dark days of misery and worry when he has to battle against the well-known woman lawyer, Aliss IL A. Lewis. He’ll undoubtedly be a good lawyer, but the woman is always the better talker so be careful, Alelvin. If you hear the Voice of Experience heli)ing a certain couple named Betty and Bill in their domestic troubles, you can be sure it’s your old friend, D. DeCecco. Dick Tracy will remain a bachelor for a few years more for the crystal says that he wdll marry his long adoring radio fan, Ann Samworth. Some day (’laire Aliller’s greatest dream will come true. She will play the organ in Radio City. At the Chicago World Fair of 1950 the Medical Conference will have two great representatives. Dr. Scott Worrall and Dr. Horace Hoskins. I see in store for Kathryn Egan a great career as champion woman fighter and boxer. Her experience was obtained through her practice fights in High School with a certain young man. laiura Wehlie will be working for a famous slenderizing company as the “after our treatments” model. iVIargaret Kondas will be spending most of her days as the wife of a certain young man from Vledia. Kathleen, with her beautiful red hair, will take over Dixie Lee’s place in Holly- wood with Ralph T ist as her director and producer. Eve Teesdale, if dreams come true, and they sometimes do, will some day take Jeannette MacDonald’s place in the music world. Last but not least in this i)roi)hecy is Tom Hibbard who will continue his work well begun at Marple-Newtown as decorator of dance halls and pnblie buildings.
