Our immense school, with its many Hoors and rooms, would he as confusing to her as it was to us when we first entered its doors. Alice's many adventures in Wonderland can he compared to those that we have experienced in Olney. Through her experiences in her world, Alice made many new friends and learned how to get along with different kinds of people. It is our desire to do the same at Olney. If we follow her example and look forward to each day as a new adventure, our life will he richer and more nearly complete. Therefore, we,the class of January 1952, have selected this famous Alice as our theme. 2 Ex,-M. -rg, X E XX Q KM 'VA f 3 gi-ww f ' A S-,,. Dubay OUR SPONSORS With a feeling of friendship and gratitude to the three persons who have helped to make our past three terms at Olney pleasant ones, wc, as the graduating class, dedicate our yearbook to our sponsors, Miss Dealy, Mr. Rantz, and Mr. Mueller. We would have been at a loss without your untiring efforts to make our activities a success. Your able assistance and helpful criticism combined with your friend- liness toward the class made us feel that you were really one of us. No class could have asked for three more wonderful sponsors. Yes, throughout the time that you have guided us, We have truly seen the Wonderful unity that blended sponsor and class into one harmonious whole. You have been our source of spirit and enthusiasm. VV ith our sincere and heartfelt thanks we dedicate our yearbook to you. 4 ANNE C. DEALY ., Ilfxmn' RANTZ Emwxn MUEL1.En In Memory of tjllczify A. Patterson Olney High 1935-October 1950 i . . .

Such confusion! Look, new faces-books-strange rooms-mixed rosters-new friends-old friends and regulations. Down... Down . . . Down . . . into the depths of Olney. Can you imagine yourself alone, unaided, in Wonderland? Poor Alice was. However, you are much luckier than Alice. When you came into Olney, there were many people here to help you. Certainly none of us would be where we are now without the wonder- ful understanding, foresight and guidance of our faculty. What would have been a diiiicult path to follow, seemed simple when our faithful lead- ers were here to point out the way. Having been tossed into the great ocean of Olney from a small pond, you probably would have Houndered about quite a bit before you got settled-but once again the administra- tion lent a helping hand. Now, we have all grown from tiny, freshman Alices, to the full-grown Alice found at the end of the book. For this may be considered the last chapter in our high-school days. Onlyafew pages still remain. Olney will be as pleasant a dream for you in future years, as Wonderland was for our friend, Alice. 10 Ll? N '5n S OUR PRINCIPAL ggi? ANDREW S. HAINES Have you ever been lost in a wilderness of trees, hills, and streams -no trails, no highways, no buildings, not even a compass-nothing but the slanting sun to give you a hint of direction? Then, suddenly, when surroundings seemed most fearful, you emerged into the grateful security of a familiar scene, took your bearings, and moved toward home and safety! As you recall many experiences in Olney High which developed maturity, brought poise, assurance and better judgment, it is my wish for you that habits of truth, honor and resolution formed here may become a guiding compass through the confusion of the future, and like Alice in Wonderland, you may now meet each new experi- ence with confident curiosity, and a faith that all will be Well. QL'-J , 12 l ICE PRI CIPALS 'sf Al 1 iefxq 7 i , W Q, ,- WALTER B. Gnmsxwoov NELLIE Fixx Mrs. Fink, the Vice Principal, is known to the student body for her constructive guidance whenever difficulties arise. Her cheerful smile and pleasant hello is remem- bered by all who seek her services. Her untiring efforts have guided us during our memorable stay at Olney. Our gratitude to her cannot be aptly expressed in words. Her only reward may lie in knowing that she is helping us along in life. WVhenever we, the class of january think back to our years at Olney High School, we will surely remember Dr. Greenwood, the Vice Principal. At some time in the last three years every one of us has either come in contact with him personally in search of advice or seen him during one of his visits to a classroom. The sincere advice and valuable suggestions of Dr. Greenwood have aided in many ways not only us students but also Olney High School. 13 07777726766 HELEN A.

I shall be too lately The white rabbit with pink eyes who so startled Alice was not the last to make that exclamation. It has been uttered dozens of times by us Olney students at two thirty P.M. when classes end and clubs commence. Just as Mr. Rabbit pulled out a watch from his waistcoat pocket, so we have often glanced hurriedly at our wristwatches, not wanting to miss a single moment of our pleasant after-school activities. We may have been dashing to a service club such as the Trojanaires and Trojanettes. Or perhaps it was a language club. Many of us are particularly interested in current events, speaking, writ- ing, music, or social clubs. Thanks to the teachers who willingly give up much of their spare time, it has been possible to offer a wide variety of clubs to us students. Not only have we benefited from these extra cur- ricular activities, but we have also derived a great deal of enjoyment from them. 30 wg! w GLW V fgf 9.- BATING I!

Although they do not always take top honors in every sport, we know that they have really done their best to make us proud of them. To us they are winners. We know that they do not stop trying until every touchdown they can possibly make is scored, until every possible run comes across the plate, until every possible basket swishes through the hoop. What more could be asked of anyone? If everyone in the school would put as much effort into being better citizens of Olney as our players put into the perfection of a team, the entire school could say that everybody has won. 54 at I I - ' ' - 69 29 ,Z 'S .Q 5.

Brink Olney has long been known for its fighting, winning soccer teams. This season is no excep- tion. In the first few weeks of the season, the Brinkmen,' lost only one game in league play and that to Northeast, perennial league cham- pion. We wish them the same success in all their games and in all their other endeavors, too. 59 L ., Ps 0 M ,Q A , of I H , , o n S ,i S54 -If V M 3 - ' I5 f c 10 H ,?'3. V me 15 T1 as .. 'H T ,.w.

Y. N T22 35:56 f Vu 4 QQVW 1 SENIORS Now Alice witnessed the gala event of our high school history-the entrance into the sacred precincts of the mighty senior. During her tour through Olney, Alice became very much attached to her class, and the realization that we would soon be parted came upon her with the suddenness of an explosion. She saw that we had passed through the best period of our lives and presently would be engaged in the task of making a place for ourselves in the world. Alice realized that in a few days we would part from our chums and classmates perhaps never to meet again. V But this is not the time for sorrow, it is a time for recollection. Let us all be happy and light of heart. And if, as the days and years glide by, the longing for old friends and Olney seizes you, do as Alice would prescribe, look into this volume and glance through its pages. Then the purpose of this Trojan will have been fulfilled. Now, as we go forth into the outer world, to leave behind everything but the memories of our years at Olney High, we should resolve never to do anything but that which will bring honor and glory to our Alma Mater. Then Olney High School will raise her head with pride and cherish her memories of the january, 1952, Class. Thus grew the tale of Wonderland, Thus slowly, one by one, Its quaint events were hammered out- and now the tale is done, And home we steer, a merry crew, Beneath the setting sunf, 74 f' as ff l?Ke?'9 1 fc O' Je?

OUR We counted the years, the months, the days, and finally the hours that remained until our long antici- pated, wonderful senior prom. We spent the early part of that memorable june 1 in school, impatiently watching the clock tick slowly away. Each of those five school hours seemed an eternity. Then, finally, the dismissal bell rang. Each of us rushed to his all- important destination: the hair-dresser, the barber shop, the florist, and at last home to dress. Dinner, of course, was out of the question, for those butter- flies in our stomachs prevented us from eating any- thing at all. One last look of approval in the mirror made us all glad that ours was a summer prom. The door-bell rang and the girls were soon opening those boxes of flowers presented to them by the young men who looked so handsome in their white dinner jackets. Alice,s Wonderland was no more appealing to her than the Cedarbrook Country Club was to us on that night. The ballroom was whirling with organdy and 86 s 3 L PROM orchids. We thrilled, at the sight of our schoolmates who had suddenly become so charming. We received our dance books and prom keys at the door and joined the joyous crowd. We danced the night away on the patio, the dew laden grass, and the crowded ballroom floor to the music of Marty Kramer and his orchestra. Although 'the prom itself was wonderful, we soon found ourselves on our way to various night clubs. The night faded, but we were still wide-awake. We went from party to party, singing, dancing, and eat- ing. The brightly shining sun took us all by sur- prise. We left the breakfast parties, after having be- stowed many thanks on our wonderful hostesses. Then, on our doorsteps, in the midst of the morning sunshine, we sleepily, but reluctantly, bid our dates goodnight. We had sung and laughed, had been quiet and noisy, but, all the while, we had been Olney students. 87 2 ' 'Xw , V ,. - P3552 'K . fffff' Qmde Chairman Miss PHILLIPS There have been times during our years at Olney when we were so confused that we didnlt know Which Way to turn. Our many problems about courses' were heaped upon Miss Phillips - Our Grade Counselor. She always did her best to help us solve them. Not only is she a gym and hygiene teacher, and a grade counselor, but a leader of the first aiders during the retention drills. Even with these many duties, Miss Phillips is never too busy to give us a smile. Thanks to her expert guidance, our stay at Olney has been made much happier. 88
