■11 ! WKf ' ' }|i tJF - ' • ■ X9|ujL i;. : H 1 1 [Bi 1 7o 7kc ClMH ot 1957: Last April a disastrous fire brought to an end the career of the original portion of the Marple -New- town High School building. Oddly enough this disaster took place at the time when one era of our high school ' s life was closing and a new one begin- ning. The period which was characterized by smallness had ended and opening up ahead was a time which will see a uemendous growth in our educational facilities. For reasons of sentiment many of us mourned the loss of the old structure which had been the edu- cational home for many years of the boys and girls of Marple and Newtown townships. People cannot lightly toss aside affection for the school in which they spent their youthful years, but reason clearly shows that the old building was no longer capable of furnishing an efficient housing for a modern and efficient type of education. Now we see a new and modem structure rising on the site of the old one and being constructed to meet the modern ideal of educational efficiency. We shall never lose our affection for that which has passed on, but, at the same time, let us rejoice at what the future promises and keep in mind that this new building, rising out of the ashes of the old, promises larger and better educational opportunities for the young people of Marple and Newtown town- Jay W, Worrall Supervising Principal Marietta P. Maguire Altoona High School Secretary You ' ll have to have an excuse. Mrs. Edna G. Dougherty Marple-Newton High School Secretary First, I must get out the notices.
