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

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.

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.
