s .. 0---w Asks Wins, . W X , ., ...Q ' ' CLASSIC COLUMNS mark the main entrance of high school building bursting at the seams in spite of four additions since its construction in l928. The iointure of New Cumberland with Fairview Township, Goldsboro, Lewisberry, and Newberry Township for the operation of grades 7 to l2 has made addi- tional facilities even more necessary. However, the three R's -red-tape, restrictions, revenue-are problems the New Cumberland Joint School Board has to overcome before a iunior high school can be built. l4l Letters to the Editors Dear Editors: We wish publicly to say bon voyage to exchange student Adolphe Nicolas who returns to his home in French Morocco at the close of school. He came to us as a stranger in September, speaking no English. When he leaves we will be losing a friend, a pal, who has adapted himself to American ways, who speaks our language with ease. His year with us has been a first-hand lesson in international under- standing. Let's have more exchange students at N. C. H. S. G. B. and D. S. in Dear Editors: Someone should subsidize a fund to raise the minimum hourly wage of the head chef in John's Hash House. lt seems a shame that only lOc per day is paid a man who does so much for the betterment of gastric acidity.

. . in times past Indian moccasins made trails along these waters and named them Shawnee. Today Shawnee waters have become the Yellow Breeches Creek where students swim, boat, and fish. Shawneetown, on the site of present day New Cumberland, was established as a trading post in 1688. Located across the usually placid Sus- quehanna from Harris Ferry, now Harrisburg, capital of Penn- sylvania, the station became a cross-roads for travelers south and west. From this early settlement has grown a prosper- ous suburban community of 6500, the third largest town in Cumberland County.

PUBLISHER J. Horace McFarland CONTINUOUS ACTIVITY characterizes any picture of a well-worn campus. A tennis match, a hockey game, a football contest are often in progress at the same moment. Winter covers its worn patches with an icy sugar frosting' Sports move indoors to an airy gymnasium. But student feet follow old paths to leave fantastic trails. And members of the class of l965 build forts and use its gentle slopes for exciting sled rides. Then spring returns to green up the scene and the lusty pace goes on. l5l X x,xI icq XX i
