I 7 l A The Griffin LE Of 1947 :H H: P bl h d by Th S Cla f Th P k1 Q Dedication It is the custom for the Senior Class to dedicate to that member of the faculty, who, by his interest and guidance, has done the most to merit its continual grat- itude and remembrance. Mr. Gemmell, in appreciation of your keen interest in student activities as class adviser, we wish to express our gratitude by dedicating this, our Senioryearbook, to you. To the Class of 1947: Try and still. try, for who knows what is possible. -- Michael Faraday ' These words bya pioneer scientist represent a challenge to every- one, especially to you, the American youth of today. 'You are part of a great government, founded on democratic ideals, enriched by a proud heritage, blessed by possession of atomic power, and now committed to an active role in building a peaceful world. Your assignment for to- morrow is to prove yourself equal to the challenging task of active cit- izenship inthat government. Faraday's words were not designed for one nation alone, nor restricted solely to the realm of physical science. In the same manner you must try and still try to become global citizens -- to expand your sympathies and concepts to include all people every- where. I congratulate you on your past achievement and present attain- ment. While your future may now seem uncertain, and bewildering, I have confidence that your good cheer and optimism will give you the courage necessary to clear each hurdle in stride. Laugh often, espec- ially at yourself. Set truth and justice as your goals and let quiet hon- esty be your guide. Traveling this path you will not fail to contribute to the better world for which all humanity yearns. You have my best wishes for a happy and productive future.

When men become discouraged with their lack of progress, they can find last- ing comfort in John 3, verses 6 to 8: That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound there- of, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. . ' Many of you graduating in June and August have started to rebuild your lives. You have faced the reality of life through grim experiences beyond the call of age, but you are more thanmere flesh, you are men reborn with the spirit of determina- tion to amount to something and to work for the betterment of mankind and the world. Experience is like the wind that comes and goes--sometimes refreshing and beneficial, sometimes destructive and searing. But no one can dodge exposure to experience as no one can dodge the wind. This experience leaves its imprint--good or bad--and you, alone, must decide which to retain and which to discard, which is permanent like the Spirit and which is only flesh and transitory. We at Perkiomen who are your friends and teachers can help you differentiate between the relevant and the irrelevant. Each of you deserves to be treated as if he were the only student here toward whom all our energies, knowledge, and experience have been directed. Four words will summarize our educational environment today: Too many, too soon . We regret to see you leave, but you pass on to greater challenges, greater hopes, and wider vistas. We shall not forget you. You are indelibly a part of us, and we are a part of you. Through our shared experiences we are as close as the Spirit of God and the wind which surrounds us always. May He bless you and watch over you. Albert E. Rogers Headmaster 1 l I 1 Irwin W. Kehs Ph.B. Mathematics Henry G. A., Smith A.B. A.M. Foreign Languages Coach of Tennis D. Bruce Lytle A.B.

This group of hard working, hard fighting boys was the true backbone of the team. . Mr. Lytle, Mr. Quigg, and Mr. Baker are to be congratulated on the success of their team. Their hard work and excellent instruction were some of the main fac- tors in this year's proud record. A Soccer Team Front row- Moy, Eysmang Galloway, J. Rodriguez, Goldichg Zneimerg Mr. Economos.

What is needed to produce a' soccer team that will win? It takes more than just a powerful kick to play the game. Courage, perseverance, and speed are only three of the many traits of a true soccer team. This year, wehad a team that had all of 'these traits, even in the face of defeat. From a group of unskilled and unorganized boys, coach Homer Economos formed a strong, fast team. Even with a great many injuries, the Perkiomen Boot- ers fought hard up to the final gun. Above all, they never said Die, Congratula- tions, boys! You've done a fine job. t POSITIONS Sz' NAMES GAMES Sz SCORES , Oct. 1, Abington H.S. 3, Perkiomen, 2g ' Oct. 4, Bethlehem, 1, Perkiomen, 03 Oct. 14, Friends Central, 1, Perkiomen, 35 Oct. 29, Hill School, 2, Perkiomen, 55 Oct 31, West Chester, 3, Perkiomen, 15 Nov. 5, Abington H.S. 2, Perkiomen, 23 Nov. 12, The Hill School, 0, Perkiomen, 1, Nov. 15, West Chester, 1, Perkiomen, Og Nov. 18, Friends Central, 2, Perkiomen, 13 - THE BASKETBALL TEAM Front row- Moore, Davis, DeTurckg jones, Lum, Stevensong Ricci.

Basketball 1946-'47 The Perkiomen quintet of 1946-47 was one of the foremost in the school's .bas- ketball history. Playing a rugged schedule, the team compiled an excellent record of 16 wins and 4 defeats. Led by co-captains Pete Kramer and Chester Stupi, the team amassed a total of 950 points while their opponents netted only 748. High scorer for the season was center,Al Bruno with a total of 272 points. Starting the season off on the right foot, we wallopped Stevens Trade School to the tune of 65-40. Next we dropped a close one to Allentown Central Catholic in an overtime period, after having been ahead with seconds to play in the fourth quarter. The following. afternoon brought defeat again, this time at the lands of St. Joe's Frosh by a one point margin. Returning from the mid-winter vacation, we quickly got back into the win col- umn, whipping P.I.D. by a 56-26 count. Wyoming Seminary also fell to defeat at our hands as Al Bruno registered 26 markers in a 69-29 victory. In a game preliminary to Temple-Muhlenburg contest, we took a tight one from the Muhlenburg J.V.'s as Ken Smeltz dropped in the winning foul shot with less than a minute left to play. The next week brought victories over P.M.C. and Admiral Farragut Academy by the decisive scores of 53-36 and 50-36. Yielding once more to the undefeated St. Ioe's five, the team looked good in spots, but a bad second quarter marred our chances and the final score read St. Ioseph's 47, Perkiomen 43. The following Sat- urday saw Perkiomen taking a tight victory from West Chester on our home court. Bibs Quarry's one-hand set shdt in the final seconds together with Newt Margolis' 19 rmrkers brought us out on the victorious end of a 59-58 decision. In the first of two contests scheduled for February first, the Indians trounced Wyoming Seminary, this time on the latter's court, by a count of 56-47. Moving on to Honesdale for the fea- Java-' ' e-N is ture game of the day, the team really caught fire and seared its way through to a 57-38 win, with every member of the squad tallying. Special mention should go to Bruno, Stupi, and Wickkiser for their part in the square dance following the game. The Perkiomen five next took the floor in a return match with Stevens Trade. The game appeared lost as we found ourselves behind with but a few seconds left to play, but a brilliant interception and shot by Bibs Quarry pulled the game out of the fire and put us on the longer end of a 36-35 score. The next week an aggressive In- dian combination was led to victory by Al Bruno and Pete Kramer, who together chalked up 38 markers in a 56-42 triumph. The following Saturday saw us lose a heart-breaker to the Lafayette 1.V.'s on the latter's floor, as a result of Killingex-'s lay-up as the final gun sounded. Unlucky 13 held no jinx for us as our record read just that many successes after a 56-38 win over P.I.D. with Pete Kramer registering 20. Next, a more decisive decision was rendered over the teachers from West Chester, as the margin of victory this time was eleven more than in the previous meeting. Striving for victory number fifteen, the local courtmen played host to the Laf- ayette I.V.'s and emerged with their ambitions realized in a scoreboard reading of 61-56 in our favor. Finally, with an appropriate ending to a highly successful sea- son, the Perkiomen quintet downed Bordentown by a final score of 40-28.
