Some of us may go to various and distant parts of the country, but always, through our book of Memories, we can relive the days we spent at Marple -Newton . As we have entered to learn and go forth to serve, may we realize that it is our privilege and duty to keep the lamp of freedom burning in a be- wildered world . So we present this record of our past years, that we may keep fresh in our minds the pleasant contacts we have had with teachers, who gave of them- selves so freely to bring our high school days to a successful ending, and with our classmates, whose companionship will long be remembered. 4 Our i nee of al I American cate our Memories to the members of our Armed Forces, who, together wor live in freedom and FIRS T ROW : M L SECOND R o W:E A agner - G. 0 ' Co nnor E P • Smith, d r aro man, p. c ' £ ‘ M - Dough eitv , ° rrnan ’ L Hot tnstein ’ ' HaI1 ' M - flicker ' L - Lord, ; s - ■ A - L - %. «. � .

School Board School Board Does Long-range Planning The Marple-Newtown Joint School Board is made up of the com- bined School Boards from Marple and Newtown townships. Mr. Frank Capotosto is president Mr. Eugene W. Ewing is vice- president, Mr. Wilmer F. Loomis is secretary, and Mr. Charles H. Russell is treasurer. The Board has two very definite projects for this year: one, the continuance of the evaluation program for the school, and another, the expansion survey for a long-range building program for the high school . Early this year Mr. John Gable, who had faithfully served on the School Board for nineteen years, retired and was succeeded by Mr. William Culbertson. Deep appreciation is extended to these ten seldom-thanked men who have so willingly given up their time to attend meetings and to work on projects connected with the betterment of the high school program . 10 Supervising Principal ' s Message Every boy and girl inourgreat country has been taught that in this land of freedom there is no bar to a person ' s progress except his own peculiar limi totions . This preachment is true but it has a tendency to play up the what ' s in i t for me atti tude and to make true the state- ment that to too many people in this country democracy means, I am as good as you and not You are as good as I. We should remember that the freedom offered in the United States must encourage consideration for the other fel low. In this way coopera- tion is encouraged and we are doing our part to bind together the citi- zens of America and to make stronger that nation for which our arm- ed forces are so courageously fighting. Freedom does not give us the privilege to stand up in a movie and yell Fire, 11 just because we feel like it, nor does it bestow on us the right to disregard a monitor in the corridors when passing from class to class. Freedom does place upon us the responsibility of making a cho ice of action each time the occasion arises, which will not work harm to the other fellow. The hot-rodder may think he is having a good time racing down the middle of the highway but look at the poor cho ice of action he has made. Freedom, then, offers us in America a very wide latitude of action . Let us a Iways choose that course of action which will add something to the common good and wi 1 1 make our nation a strong , well knit-together organi zation , we II able to ward off the efforts of any group seeki ng to weaken it.

Even now, we are able to recall the many happy, gala affairs that have polka-dotted our school lives. There have been dances, games, holidays, parties, sweethearts, and other events whi ch have helped to complete our busy schedule. At last all is completed. Some are happy , others are sad , but all have a feeling of awe and satisfaction . Now we are to face reality. No more theory, no more instruction; now we are on our own. Our futures vary . Our class will disperse into the many fields of endeavor which are offered by our present-day world, such as, marriage, war, careers and college. 1 1 remai ns now, on I y to li ve up to the standards made by our fel lowmen , our nation , our God . In summary, i t may be said: We are launching ourselves into a troubled sea , but wi th God ' s help, we shall make the other shore. 19 SENIORS ESTHER AHARONIAN General Full of pep, full of fun.

Jean MacDonna and her victorious white team edged out Dick Gross ' s yellow team. Bob Trowbridge, the Junior ' s champion huckster, sold nearly $170 worth of subscriptions. When Dorothy Wardle, drive manager, totaled up the profits, she found that out of the $2260 collected, the Juniors got $820. The Juniors contributed to the growing school population by welcoming Mary Bett Gi Ibert, Audrey Salmon, Charles Shisler, Bob Lytle, Dave Goodman, Thomas Walsh, Victor Knorr, and Kay Kanuika to their ranks. The two Junior homerooms. Miss D ' Amelio ' s and Miss Yeingst ' s, won first and second place respectively in the Christmas room decorations.

Eighth Grade History Shows Promise This year ' s eighth grade class was the largest in the history of Marple-Newton . When we returned from summer vacation this year, we had several new teachers and pupils with whom to get acquainted. The first big thing that we did was to elect officers. Mr. Richute ' s homeroom officers were Robert Hunter, president; John Hurford, vice-president; and Leona Mau, secretary-treasurer . Mr. Swavely ' s officers were Bruce Smith, president: Thomas Stone, vice-president; and Deborah Wallace, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Raffensperger ' s were Marilyn Burke, president; Robert Berk- heiser, vice-president, and Ruth Coleburn, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Swavely ' s homeroom won first prize for Christmas decorations, and Miss Manlove ' s won second prize in the junior high. Several of our boys participated in sports, and several pupils took part in the Junior High Girls ' Chorus, orchestra, and band. Bruce Howard represented the eighth grade on the Student Council, and Eric McGillicuddy and Dianne Mitton were on the Mar-News staff. This year has been a very enjoyable one for all of us, and we hope the years following will be as pleasant. 44 FIRST ROW: J. Blakeley, D. Brimble, A. DiCarlo, R. Allison, M. J . Cox, C. Atkinson, B.

Character, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service are the qualifications for the organi- zation. Speeches were made on these subjects by Marlene Bricker and John Hottenstein, the members who were selected last year. Along with these ideals, the persons selected must have a scholastic average of 85. Fifteen per cent of the senior class and five per cent of the junior class are chosen each year. This year ' s membership was the largest ever because of the large junior class. Members who were inducted from the senior class were Mary Lou Wagner, Lois Lord, Phyllis Smith, and Theodore Hall. The juniors were Nancy Fowle, Dorothy Wardle, Laura Fisher, and Sally Nicholl. 52 DEBATING TEAM 1ST ROW: S. Nicholl, J. Hottenstein, N. Fowle. 2ND ROW: T. Hall, Mr. Kachur, P. Moran, C. Braun, L.

Then on the 27 the affirmative won against Nether Providence while the negative lost to Ridley Township.

The members of the affirmative team consisted of Ted Hall, Nancy Fowley, and Dotty Seracke; the negative, John Hottenstein, Sally Nicholl, and Susann Shaffner. 53 Seracke, J. Smeby, D. McClune. Dramatics EVER SINCE EVE November 30, 1951, was a memorable night in our school year, for if was then that the senior high school students presented the play, Ever Since Eve , by Florence Ryerson and ColinClements. The play was directed by Mr. Robert Trawny, assisted by Nancy Fowle, and it was with great surp ise, we discovered how talented we were. The rehearsals were hectic, the early arrivals groping their way through the dark school to the lightswitches. After the first shock of cold had worn off, we were ready to start with half of the cast still missing. On the evening of the production, however, we played to an appre- ciative and enthusiastic audience, and after much laughter and ad-libbing, when the final curtain had fallen we knew Ever Since Eve had been a huge success.

In September, the Tri -Hi -Y offi cers traveled to Camp Dwight, in Downingtown, for an Officers ' Conference. There they met officers from other parts of Philadelphia. On December 23, the girls took filled stockings and cookies up to the fellows at Valley Forge. This project took the place of our annual trip to orphanages. On December 22, we sponsored the Holiday Hop, featuring the Havorfordians . This dance was a tremendous success and added much to our Christmas holiday. On Friday evenings the club sponsored canteen and several special dances. In February our club sponsored an assembly program, which was a group from Overbrook School of the Blind. In May we wi 1 1 have our annual Mother and Daughter Banquet . In June we wi 1 1 give, a commencement prize to the Senior getting the highest mark in a reading test. In summing up the year, we are very proud of our achieve- ments . 58 Sadie Hawkins Day Hi-Y LADS ENJOY A FULL YEAR The Hi -Y started the year under the guidance of Mr . Wertz. Mr. Wertz was fairly new a. handling boys ' clubs but proved very capable . For the first time, the club held ini tiati on during school hours followed by a party at the home of Bob Barone.

CHEF CLUB What good cooks M-N is turning out in the Chef Club I This group of boys has concocted many delectable dishes.

Monitors ANOTHER STRIPE FOR THE MONITORS Single file, keep to the right is the familiar chant of the Monitors. Too often we take for granted their duties and never stop to realize the important, but thankless part they play in the safety program of our school. This year it hasbeen even harder for the Monitors because there have been almost twice as many boys and girls in the school as previously enrol led . The new wing alone cal led for an increase of five more Monitors. So to our Monitors we present another Stripe with our sincere thanks for a job well done . 62 OVER THE GOALPOSTS It ' s marked not that you won or lost. But how you played the game . 1 951 -1 952 was a sad year for our Tigers, because of many p layers being members of last year ' s graduating class. Mr . Nye , and Mr. Swavely started actually from scratch with eight re- turning lettermen. The season, however, had its highlights. Whi le we won only two games, with West Pottsgrove and Sharon Hill, our boys played well. Dutton and Shupard carried us to victory in both games t then N ask and Mai Ion placed the score at Spring City. At Prospect Park, Shupard scored the first touchdown and Hess galloped 66 yards for the second. M-N finished up the football year by being defeated by Springfield with a score of 20-0. On November 27, the Tigers were guests of the Athletic Association at a Sports Banquet held in the gym. Ned Nedu- rian. Master of Ceremonies, introduced the guest speaker of the evening who was John Ox DaGrossa. Awards were pre- sented to Mike Mai Ion, lineman-of-the-year; Elwood Shupard, most valuable player, and Don Gorman the best Sportsman. Varsity Football FIRST ROW: A. Capotosto, L. Underhill, R.

Our Hockey squad got going this year under the excellent coaching of Miss Baldwin. There were many out for hockey, therefore, we were able to have four teams. The record this year wasn ' t too good, but we still played an excellent game of hockey. The varsi ty won none , tied two, and lost five . The Jay Vee lost six, and won one. The third team tied one and lost one. The fourth team won one and lost one. This is Miss Ba Idwin ' s first coaching experience, and the team would like to congratulate her for her fine job. 68 Of these lassies there is lots to tell Because this season they all did swell. Look at the picture from left to right. And then each girl you will have in sight. Emmy was our little left full back, Sh ined on defense end on the attack. Center was Nancy quiet and sweet; To watch this gal was really a treat. Blonde hair and blue eyes, Alice, the name, Right fullback position brought her fame. Goals this year were few and far between. But Judy was M-N ' s scoring fiend. We ' ll never forget our Edna Mae; At left inner she helped save the day. This gal possesses many good traits. Captain Janice with us really rates. Left half a position hard to play Pat would change it if she had her way. As halfback one has to run and run Nancy ended with a job well done. Jean was given the worst job of all When ten missed she had to stop the ball . Pat at left wing had the speed to clock All you could see was her orange sock. Far apross the field and to the right, Patty played wing with all her might. Joanie and Shirley played a nice game Add them to the hockey hall of fame. A toast to Miss Baldwin who ' s full of fun Her first job of coaching, was a job well done. 69 BASKETBALL FIRST ROW: D. Goodman, G. Remington, A. Dutton, L. MacQueen, L, Underhill, R. Hess, T.

WE WANT A BASKET Although all the scores were against M-N, the boys fought all the way in every game. The squad had a good many lower classmen in action throughout the season. With this fact in mind we may look forward to better teams in the coming years at M-N . Lowell Underhill was high scorer with 136 points, while James Bortle was next with 1 10 points. Very aggressive Javees displayed plenty of scrap and came through victorious in many hard-fought battles. We are looking forward to great things from this group. 70 ! BASKETBALL FIRST ROW: L.
