EDITORIAL EACH YEAR the staff of any high school annual faces a formidable task- that of presenting old and well-known material in a fresh, new way. Most yearbook editors are not revolutionists. Complete or sudden change is no guarantee of improvement. Careful study of past books indicates a blue print, a pattern of essentials that wise editors keep in mind. How, then, to acquire a brisk and novel concept without resorting to flamboyance or showiness. SHAWNEE'S editors present the I953 edition with these thoughts in mind. We are eager to portray for all students Life as it is lived daily in New Cumberland High School. We are eager to cover all the events on the news- fronts of the school. We are eager to picture the people, big and little, who make the headlines. Thus, with apologies to Life and Mr. Henry R. Luce, we introduce our magazine version of the SHAWNEE for I953.

Busy people set the pace CHECKING RECORDS, answering correspondence and keeping the office running smoothly are office secretary Betty Weigle, Charles Gemmill, supervising principal, Caro- line Mikos, secretary, and S. P. Bomgardner, high school principal. Although continually interrupted by students, they are always able to smile and lend a helping hand. I TALKING OVER the past football season, LeRoy Toddes co-captain, coach Bill Dittmar, and Erd Roof, co-captain, admire new Tiger trophies. I BUSY COUNTER in Mr. Bomgardner's office is always lined with students demanding information, excuses, or tardy slips. Bud Flurie talks with the principal while Mardee Eichelberger and James Hart fill in tardy slips. HOT-RODS DELUXE screech and roar around the campus. Under inspection by Fred Fox and .lack Morton is Bob Duncan's pride and joy, com- plete with assorted gadgets and super features. l8l
