Here in Marple-Newtown, as in other schools all over America, youtfi is taught bow to think, not what to think. Certain high ideals have been instilled in our lives. The ever-present guiding hands of our teachers, parents, and fellow students have directed us and will continue to lead us towards more helpful, well-rounded lives. This is our record of the past — a book of many golden memories . — our Memories of 1948 . 1948 Memories Marple-Newtown Hard- Working Staff EDITdR IN-CIIIEI Gloria lar ( ' ■ ASSOCIATE EDITORS C ( ralcliiie SI laver irfjinia liaskin BUSINESS MANAGERS Josephine Wajjiier BROOMAEE Richard J homas -Arnold Orazielli NEWTOWN SQUARE Helen Reardon Franl fFdlaron LARCI IMONT Joan Mander Rulh Gart ner CIRCULATION MANAGHR Janet Kieine ATHLETICS l,ois 1 roupe I .oiiis Snellin[f ACTIVITIES liarhara Relers ( doria Civilella SPECIAL FEATURES Joyce Steer Donna Frazer TYPING Dorothy Wigyins Jean Dennin Esther Murphy Jane Thompson ADVERTISING MANAGERS Marie Marti no Fetlv Jane hriedrich hrorU row — left to riqlil: . .

W e cannot hope to ex- press the value of such a person to us, but we can set aside some slight tribute in appreciation of such endless, sympathetic understanding. In humble respect, we, the Class of 1 048, dedicate this journal to our mothers, to whom we owe all the successful accomplishments ol our school years. 1948 Memories 6 Marple-Newlown Seniors Leave Happy Memories 111 I lie ' ears lo (dine, as we, I lie Seniors ol 10 l(S. look liac k over our earliook, we sliall reiiKMiilier tlie lliiiif(s we liave done to make tliis a menioralile year.

There are two general practices with respect to pupd participation in the manage- ment of school affairs: (1) participation through the student council, and (2) participation through various pupil committees and groups created from time to time to meet specific needs. School Board Considers Our Interests The Marple-Newtown Joint School Board, a body of men very important to the functioning of our school, is not as often recognized as it should be. This job recjuires much careful |)lanning and many times calls for wise decisions from its members. They must be constantly thoughtful of our welfare as students of Marple-Newtown High School. Every month tbe school board meets to talk over the business of our school and to plan for coming events. For these jobs and for the many advantages which have been ours through the competent guidance of our school board, we extend our sincere thanks. [.eft to right: E. Eii’ing, J. Ercrlerick, C.

Darrah was not present.) 1948 Memories 10 Marple-Newlown Principal s Message l upils in junior and senior liigli schools are not inclined to he told. The loregoing words appear in an article designed for the instruction of high school teachers and set forth one of the coinmoidN recognized characteristics of hoys and girls in our secondary schools. Granting the corrc ' ctness of the above statement it hehooves our pupils to realize the efforts being made by their teachers and parents to remedy the lack of self-directive powers that pupils must of necessity ha ' e due to their lack ol life-e.xperience. Coo|jeration ol pupils with their elders in these ellorts for their I )etter guidance will be repaid richly. Many pitfalls of various kinds will be a ' oided. Moral guid- ance will settle many doubtiul |)oints in the held of right and wrong. Ed ucalional guidance will direct a boy or girl into areas of ediu ational effort more nearly attuned to their unic|ue abilities. X ' ocational advice may [joint the way into the type of lile-work that will not only |)ay the greatest material returns but also lurnish the largest amount of happiness. By paying serious attention to the acKice ol their teachers and parents in all areas in which it may be o ffered. e ' er pupil N ' ill have a xastly increasc ' d chance of being jjiaced upon the road that leads to a lull and successful life. It is my earnest wish that every member of the Class of 19-18 may find this road and travel ujjon it through all those years that stretch ahead. Your sincere friend. Jay k WoRRALL, Supervising Principal 11 Thr 0 ug hout Our Classes guidance is carried on by the whole teaching staff and in home room discussion. HealtK educational social, civic, and recre- ational guidance stimulates pupils to the acrpnsition of worth- while skills, attitudes, ideals, and interests which result in behavior desirable for the individual and society.

This, a bond of twenty-five dollars, was presented to Ellis College, who bad the highest score. The winner was also given an opportunity to try for a .scholarship among state and national schools.

The Bridge Cluh under the direction of Mr. Oselinshy has had a good time throughout the year playing and learning how to play Bridge and Pinochle. Those members of the Library Club have very ably helped to run the library by checking in hooks, returning books to the shelves, and keeping the records straight. Mrs. Graham’s Art Cluh has been making some very beautiful articles for themselves and their friends. They have also worked in clay and made some paintings. Needles have been flving fast in the Knitting Cluh. Under the direction of M rs. Marlino, the girls have learned to knit, improved their knitting, and made some socks, sweaters, and mittens. The Ping Pong tables have been well used throughout the year by Mr. Harvey’s club. They have organized a tournament, and some of them have become c(uite skilled at this game. M. N.’s dance Rends could surely find a club to suit them, since there are two organized dancing clubs, a Freshman dancing cluh led by Mr. Olsen and a Senior High club under the direction of Mr. Richute. Those interested in acting and stagework found plenty to interest them in Mr. Brown’s Dramatic Club, where they have studied and acted out plays. The Shop Cluh has kept itself busy making plastic ornaments and household articles which would dazzle anyone s eye. For food lovers among the boys, it is interesting to note that Miss Chase s Cooking Club has turned out with some really Rne dishes. The girls, it is also to be noted, w ' ere the chief samplers. Under the leadership of Mr. Baldelli, the Science Club, which is one o f M. N.’s most noteworthy clubs, has learned many new things in the Reid of scientiRc research. Our best known and most outstanding club is Tri-Hi-Y. This club consists of fifty members from the Senior High. These girls ran our canteen, visited the Chester Day Nursery with a Christmas party, staged a party at the Main-Line at Ardmore, and sponsored a Mother-Daughter bancjuet in the high school cafe- teria. Tri-Hi-Y is under the direction of Miss Yeingst and Miss D Amelio. The Gym Glub, where forty-two boys from the junior and senior high school participate in athletic activities, suitable to season, is under Mr. Pittman s guidance. The boys are placed on teams, so that they w ' ill be playing against opponents of equal ability and in their own age groups. The junior high girls glee club under the direction of Airs. Geraldine Kurtz has had a very successful year. The ofRcers of this club are as follows: President, Ruth Burton; Vice President, Shirley Delany; Secretary-Treasurer, Nancy Sw ' artz. Some of the activities they engaged in were a doggie roast at the home of Eve Coan, a candlelight service at Christmas, and a luncheon at Mrs. Kurtz s home followed by a skating party. Then in the spring we took part in the Music Festival by doing a scene from a Gilbert and Sullivan Operetta. 1948 Memories 50 0 1 .-. .r.- -t - • s 6 N A P S f irst row: I. ()t,r cinonm stars. 2.

Varsity Football Has Fair Season Under tlie dependable coaching of Mr. Ricbute and Mr. Harvey, our team fought through for a fairly success ful season. Led hy Jim Knapp and Boh Nash, two of the best offensive hacks that M. N. has had in a long time, the hoys hit their stride in the beginning of the season, hut the last half of our schedule proved disastrous. For the first time in four years, we gained a thrilling upset victory over Sharon Hill, hy trouncing them 20 to 7. Next year. Coach Richute wi 11 face quite a task in rebuilding an crlmost new team, because eight of the starting eleven will be lost. The lettermen graduating are Dan Bishop. Burt Hartenstine.

Hockey Girls Have Fun How well the girls recall the bright, sunny September days which marked the beginning of the hockey season! The practices and games left many memories of siirain ed ankles, scratches, black-and-blue marks as well as rosy cheeks, but every minute of it was loads of fun. Th is year the girls had three victories and five defeats. Although we did not win many of our games, we had the spirit; and the girls did much effective playing. The cooperation of the coach, Mrs. Cook, and every girl down to the Second team was outstanding. Those lost by graduation this year are Gloria Harvey, Gerry Shaver, Virginia Baskin, Janet Flood, Gloria Civitella, Louise Welsand, Joyce Steer, Joan Mander, Janet Kieme, and Barbara Peters. 1948 Memories 56 Mcirple-Newtown Welsand Receives New Hockey Award I lie award lor lliose yirls excelling in sporlsmansliip and perlormancc was. as in the past, a small fjold M-N Athletic Pin.

M-N Places Third in Suburban Five League Through the fine coaching of Mr. Pittman, the Varsity Bashethall Squad came out on top with a better than .500 average, and also a third place position in the Suburban Five League. Ed Feldkircher was high scorer with 137 points, wliile Harry Ramho and Boh Nash were next, each contributing 102 points. The hoys played excellent hall at all times, hut because of lack of reserves, they couldn’t keep up the pace. Mr. Olson’s Jay Vees established a fine record, and also filled every game with thrills and spills. The squad consisted solely of Sophomores and Freshmen. VARSITY BASKETBALL SCORES M.
