The paper is published monthly and many students through the years have taken an active part in making it a success. Through the competent editorship of Paul Jeffers and the advisorship of Miss Rowe, the Purple and White gained recognition early in the term for its news stories when it received a second place rating from the Pennsylvania Scholastic Press Association. The aims of the staff are to develop a uniform school spirit of the highest quality: to build and influence student opiniong to encourage the best school enterprisesg to cooperate with respect for school authorities, bo maintain clean sportsmanship, to acquaint the community with the progress of the schoolg to promote good scholarship, and to work always for the best interests of the school. With this in mind, the staff members succeeded in publishing eight issues as well as a special Christmas edition which was appreciated by all subscribers. A new feature added to the paper was the Foreign Reporter. Bill Willis, a former class- mate, capably forwarded interesting articles from his temporary home in Germany. N If b 1 Z ig 3.

The students were given an opportunity to study and learn all the mysteries of the crystal setn, and were given the chance to make an actual broadcast at the radio station in Coatsville. Under the leadership of Mrs Coro neos the club made a big hit with all the hams of our school. ' ' X Z Z A '1 010 .x Nj .fx 2' 5 2. UlrTlou:9y5, .5 .2 'safe I .. I i O Ebx

The Spanish Club was composed of members of Mr. Rothstein's second year Spanish class. One day a week, everyone put aside his Spanish book and spent the period in activities a little less formal, much more enjoyable, and just as valuable educationally as the regular class periods. Occasionally movies were shown or records were played, but usually the little song books were passed out and everyone chimed in with Senor Hothstein's lusty baritone. Sometimes el professor even favored los alumnos witn a Spanish dance. Mr. Hothstein's stories of per- sonal experiences in Puerto Rico and Mexico and his anecdotes of the people, their customs and their attitudes made Latin Americans seem closer and more real than any story or movie ever could. Travelogues of different Latin American countries enabled students to visualize the set- tings of much of the material which they studied. The purpose of the Spanish Club is to promote better understanding of Spanish speaking people and their customs, and to learn something about the countries in which they live. Many students helped to accomplish this purpose by having pen pals in Mexico or other Latin American countries. sk VZ JI ii i dill L Q Q ' 'Qu i' y
