ESTABLISHING AND ENFORCING Our most valued and satisfying experi- ences in life are generally recognized only in retrospect. There are few adults who do not wistfully reminisce of their school days. This yearbook is a pictorial annal of the important events and personages of the 1964-65 school year at Marple-New- town Senior High. It is my hope that in years to come, it shall become a source- book of pleasant and treasured memories to the members of the class of 1965. To you, the members of the class of 1965, I wish success and satisfaction in your chosen vocations and fulhllment of your life expectations. Marple-Ne vtown is a respected and well-known school system as a result of the efforts of Mr. Bagin. He makes sure the community is informed of the activi- ties and progress of the school system by placing articles in the local newspapers. He interviews prospective teachers to as- sure Marple-Newtown of a high calibre of teaching. This year Mr. Stephen Kachur has acted as Assistant Principal of the Senior High School. He records attendance and main- tains control over student activities; he as- sists the Student Council and vorks with the guidance counselors in planning as- sembly ]5rograms for the benefit of the stu- dent body. 10
