COIERIT DEDICATION The Senior Class of I960 feels that Mr. Samuel O. Godfrey | ossesses all of the qualities needed, to be the outstanding teacher of the year. Our class holds the deepest respect for this gentleman. His past service speaks for itself, but we must mention those virtues of patience, kindness, dependability, and sense of humor which he has exhibited. As a coach, he encourages his teams to fight hard, but fair. Being the first driver education teacher at Ridley Park, he has shaped this course into an important function of our school and has lead it to the respected position which it now holds. The waiting lists for driver education are living proof that this man’s skill as a teacher is in demand. This educator is a true friend to all the students in Ridley Park High School. Because of all these qualities the Senior Class of 1960 dedicates this Yearbook to Mr. Samuel O. Godfrey. AFTER THIRTY YEARS OF SERVICE TO RIDLEY Four I .canna Kay Hoffman, Editor, and Mrs. Gladys Rogers, Adviser. FOREWORD We have tried to place within this book the events of an entire year. By now, we hope you have read this hook from cover to cover and have found our old- fashioned theme very delightful. Teachers, administrators, secretaries, and the student body have helped us in our production of this hook. A very important member of our Retrospect family, our adviser. Mrs. Gladys Rogers, had to leave before the close of our school year. We thank her for her guidance and wish her God’s blessing in her new community. This book is for you to pick up in the years to come and to help you remember 1960 at Ridley Park High School. The Retrospect Staff of 1960 Six -tf i SENIORS undsecussio ACTIVITIES 27 ?■ y M OUR PRINCIPALS One of the current television celebrities devotes a part of the time of his program to what he calls “That Wonderful Year.” Song hits and happenings of historical interest of a given year become an interesting, amusing, and often informative part of his show. You who graduate in 1960 may find that your year of graduation is a Wonderful Year. Whether or not 1960 turns out to lx? wonderful, it will, in a sense, be unusual. It is a “zero” year, a year that marks the beginning of a decade. In the past, decades have been named to describe their character and to designate the kind of years they contained. Reference is often made to the Roaring Twenties when people rushed madly to the “bust” of 1929. The Thirties followed with their panic, despair, and financial chaos. The Forties were important years for the members of your class. It was in this decade that you were born. The Forties were war years with air raid drills, civil defense, feverish war preparation, . . . fighting. These were the Feverish, Feuding Forties. The Fifties brought you to school with all its pleasures and its problems, its opportunities and its responsibilities. Did you handle them well? If you did you may enter the Sixties with a degree of confidence and jHiise. The decade that lies ahead will challenge all who are privileged to live it through. Many problems await solution in spite of. probably because of the rapid scientific and technological advances of our times. We shoot for the moon hut fail to live peaceably with our fellowmen on earth. In the midst of abundance people go hungry and surpluses waste. Ethical teachings are insistent yet jx-ople continue to sell their honor and reputation for questionable gain. “Payola and “Fixed Quiz” become ugly terms of our times. These are sad commentaries on these recent years. May the Sixties be better. Let us hope they may be the Serious Sixties ... a period when each by thoughtful and serious effort may strive to make his world a lx-tter one. Only bv this way of life can the greatest inner satisfaction and jxrsonal happiness lx1 attained. Only this pattern of conduct will enable this class to reunite in 1970 for the traditional tenth year reunion with assurance that the 60’s will have lie Sensible. Mr. J. Layton Moore. . .

Our freshman class was drawn from many junior high schools including Trainer, Upland, Es- sington. Lester, I’arkside. and of course Ridley I’ark Junior High School. When the Class of I960 entered its freshman year there were over 100 students all ready and eager for study. We elected our class officers: Richard Tani, President: Wil- liam Dickerson, Vice-President; Mary Lou Fisher, Secretary; Rol ert McDowell, Treasurer; and Mr. Richard Bell became our able Adviser. Through- out the year the class was occupied with many ac- tivities. The civics class took a trip to Media Court House which proved l oth educational and enjoy- able. Magazines of every type were sold by all members of the class and” a profit of $880.87 was made. This money meant the beginning of a treasury that would grow until the senior year. At the end of our freshman year we gave a party— there was dancing, refreshments, and fun for all. It was a true finish to a successful year. Wise fools, we felt we were anything but fools as we entered our second year of high school. We were pretty confident of our abilities. This year our class grew; we acquired eight new students from Colwyn Junior High School We began the vear with Sirs. Helen Ferree as our Adviser and class officers: John Ratliff, President; William I redale, Vice-President; Harriet Duval, Secretary; and Georgianna Chatten. Treasurer. We also sponsored our first Saturday N’ight dances. Christmas cards, yes, that was our money mak- ing project for the year. Everyone received samples and we all went to work. Prizes were awarded for selling the most boxes and this gave us an extra incentive. hen the official count was in we found we had made a profit of $849.12, a welcome addition to our treasury. Throughout the year the sophomores participated in many activities. Our sophomore hop, “May Day,” ended the year on a gay note. Juniors already, it hardly seemed possible. Un- der the guidance of Mr. George immer and class officers John Ratliff. President; William Ire- dale, Vice-President; Harriet DuVal, Secretary, and Marilyn Birney, Treasurer, we looked forward to a new year. A few Saturday nights were all that occupied the lieginning of the year. After Christmas, characters were chosen for our Junior play, “So Help Me,” and it was presented in February. It was a success and everyone in the cast enjoyed working in it. Next, our interest was focused on our class rings. This year we decided we wanted a change and after voting on it we were given the consent to order the new style rings, composed of a simple but attractive stone. “Sayonara,” the Junior-Senior prom, was held in May. The decorations were in a Japanese vein and an orchestra played to the enjoyment of all. Fifty-nine After the prom, a party was held by the parents at the Masonic Hall in Prospect Park. Refresh- ments and entertainment were provided. The Jun- ior party followed a few weeks after the prom and “Blue Hawaii” was the theme. Records provided the tlance music. “Seniors,” what a wonderful sound that word had. We had worked for three years to achieve that goal. This year our conversations center on such subjects as, “What college are you planning to attend ?” or “Where are you planning to work ?” Everyone was concerned about their future. We had taken many tests on our scholastic ability since our sophomore vear, such as the Merit Scholar- ship Test and the Drexel Test. This year it was the College Board Examinations. Everyone was comparing scores and worrying about college en- trance. Our class will be wildly scattered. As to our activities this vear, thev varied. For our final year at Ridley Park High School we had Mr. Robert Shaffer as our Adviser and our officers were: John Ratliff. President; William Iredale. Vice- President ; Harriet DuVal. Secretary, and Marilyn Birney, Treasurer. In Deceml er we presented our Senior Play. “The V isitor ’ which was very well received, the able cast did an excellent job in presenting their first dramatic play. With the coming of April we had our senior party. It was well attended, and we danced to records and everyone enjoyed themselves. The Prom, which was held in May. was our last big dance. The decorations and orchestra were excep- tional and everyone enjoyed a wonderful evening. Following the prom a party was held at the Log Cabin where a buffet dinner was served. Our class trip took us to New York City for a day of fun. We visited Radio City Music Hall, the United Nations and many other places of interest, and we concluded our trip with a delicious dinner and then returned home. The senior banquet is always anticipated by everyone. This year was no exception. The year- book was dedicated and everyone enjoyed eating the excellent food and talking over past high school experiences. The Baccalaureate service as always was very impressive. The service was held in the school auditorium and the speaker, Dr. Lyle Bristol, de- livered an excellent message. On June 14 the Class of 1960 marched down the aisle to Pomp and Circumstance” to receive their diplomas. Everyone had worked four years for this honor and received it with joy and a little sorrow. Our guest speaker, Alexander C. Carmichel, presented a memorable message and the student sjieakers also gave excellent presentations. And as we leave Ridley Park School the Class of 1960 wishes the undergraduates good luck and happiness in their future years at Ridley Park High School.

A large amount of money, greatly needed l)y the class, can l)e added to the treasury if these girls really get to work. The members of the candy committee, amounting to 51 girls, can Ik seen carrying a box of candy in the halls, in the classrooms, and at lunch time. At the concession stand on the football field, the “candy girls” not only sell candy, but hot dogs and soft drinks. I here is also a table at the rear of the gym during hasketliall games where candy is sold. Joanne I ref and Joan Steif, the co-chairmen of the candy committee, are continually taking in money and handing out candy. The stationery committee, headed by Bonnie Strain, sell personalized stationery to raise money for the class. Although Christmas is the most prosperous time for taking orders, stationery is sold throughout the school year. These girls not only sell writing jiaper but napkins, informal notes and envelopes.

Other activities of this class included the sponsoring of several Saturday night dances, and of course, the most awaited occasion of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom.

THE LIFE OF THE RETROSPECT Last summer the entire staff held meetings and decided on the layout and theme of the hook. The staffs were pledged to secrecy. When school re- sumed in September each person on the staff was given an assignment and a date when it had to be completed. The Photography Staff engaged the photographer and l� egan taking pictures, the Business Staff sold advertisements, and the Art Staff l egan to draw illustrations on the theme. While the Literary Staff was busy composing the Senior write-ups. the Editorial Staff was explain- ing to the junior staff members the work needed to l e done. The editor tries to guide the staffs and keep everything moving so the deadlines are met. The adviser proof reads all copy and instructs the staffs on the best way to perform their duties. By the middle of the year, the editor, adviser, and an art staff member decided on the cover. The staffs were writing, naming jx ople in pictures, and working on proofs from the engraver and printer. Finally the Senior Banquet arrived and all Seniors received their books. The rest of the school received their l ook on the next school day. The staff hopes that you enjoy their efforts and will find the Retrospect a treasure in the years to come. THE FLYER STAFF HOW FLYER GOES TO PRESS The Flyer is the school newspaper, published eight times a year by a staff composed of stu- dents from the seventh through the twelfth grade, under the advisership of Miss Natalie Densmore. The main job of the paper is to present interesting occurences around the school. The staff's goal is to present a paper which will l)e of interest to everyone who reads it. The job of the Editor is putting together all the material written by the staff before it is sent to the printer. The Editor also gives out assignments, conducts meetings, and writes editorials and other articles. Another important member on the staff is the Business Manager. He handles all finances connected with the paper. The Circulation Manager goes to the printer with the paper, picks up Rotos. which are distributed with the Flyer, at the train station, and sorts the Flyers to go to each home- room. Two people have the job of writing girls’ sports and boys’ sports for every issue. The Exchange Manager sees that the pa| er is sent to other schools every month and in return the staff receives and reads copies of papers from other schools and colleges. There is at least one representative from every grade. These mem- bers write class news and feature articles. Of course, the staff wouldn’t be complete without the hardworking typists who often write articles. Usually, the staff meets once a week. At this time, assignments are made for the next issue, advice is given on writing, and problems of the paper are discussed. The students have a deadline to meet. After these articles have been proof-read by the adviser, the typists go to work. The last job in putting the paper together before it goes to the printer is the paste-ups. At this time, the editor and a few staff members lay out the paper just as the final copy will appear hut on a much bigger scale. After returning from the printer, the only job remaining is distribution. First Rote: Bristol, Avercll, McCuen (Editor), Miss Densinorc (Adviser), Foote, MacFarland, Sosnowicz. Second Row: Stief.

STUDENT COUNCIL 1 he student council of Ridley Park High School is an organization of long standing and high esteem. Representing each homeroom, class, organization, and sport, this body reflects most phases of the school life. Its objectives are promotion of school spirit, supervision and regulation of student activities, and management of normal business and school problems. Its activities include guide service to new students, regulation of dances, and participation in suburban student council meetings. From its funds, obtained from the school ls ard, council dues, dances, and class donations, money is appropriated for records, support of the school paper, cheerleaders’ equipment, dance band music, awards and trophies, and many other items.

LIBRARY STAFF AND TEEN AGE BOOK CLUB The library staff has again formed a club this year with Miss Lima f’eck, our high school li- brarian, as their adviser. Kay Hoffman was elected president; Eileen Furiani, treasurer; and Kaye Ackroyd. secretary. This year, liesides stamping and cata- loging new Itooks and magazines, each member also distributed posters throughout the school, in order to urge the people to do more reading. The Teen Age Book Club has access to inexpensive copies of outstanding literature, which in- cludes science, humor, fiction and adventure. Aside from these, free dividends are also received by each member. This means that for every four liooks purchased, a free one is obtained. Both clubs, under the direction of Miss I’eck, went to see the mo- tion picture, On The Beach. TEEN AGE BOOK CLUB First Rote: Volmer.

The elected sponsor for this year is Mrs. Bogard. Each senior member is given a blazer, paid for bv the club. The girls raise this money by selling chrysanthemums, “Go Parkers” feathers, shakers and stuffed animals. The proceeds from the dance, sponsored by the G. V. C., go toward the blazers and an annual dinner at the Ingleneuk. First Roto: Mr. Feller (Adviser), Avcrcll, Hesselbacher, Combs, Connor.

Feller, is one of the most enterprising clubs to which a boy can ltelong at Ridley Park. By means of this large exchequer and the diligence of the officers and members this varsity club performs many useful services to the school. In the past two years, the club has donated a whirlpool bath, a motion picture camera for the filming of sporting events, the foundation of a sports edition to the school library, and a five hundred dollar scholarship to a deserving athlete in the senior class. The only requirements necessary for joining are the earning of a letter in a varsity sport and the payment of dues and an initiation fee. SCOTT'S HI-Q The members of the Scott’s Hi-Q team were selected by the faculty to compete with twenty other Delaware County high schools in a radio quiz program. The school accumulating the high- est number of points in three con- tests receives one thousand dol- lars. The questions embrace the fields of U. S. government, cur- rent events, economics, world his- tory, Shakespeare, physics, chem- istry, mathematics, natural his- tory, music, world literature, mythology, and American history. This year from a | ossible forty points, our team scored twenty- one. twenty-five, and twenty-two, finishing in the top half. Firs! Rotv: Ferguson, Fiss.

CROSS COUNTRY CROSS-COUNTRY WORKED HARD Although having an unimpressive record of one win and seven losses, the cross-country team, under the energetic coaching of Mr. Joseph Ste- fanowicz, showed a lot of team spirit and desire. Mr. Stefanowicz, a cross country runner himself, often practiced with the team. Under his fine coaching the team ran hard and the records show that each member made a marked improvement during the season. Jim Reilly, the captain, won several meets, placed in the upper fifth at the district meet, and ]x sted the third best time for a Ridley Park runner on the Ridley Park course. Walter Hill and Russ Anemone both ran consistently well and received second and third place trophies in the intersquad meet following Jim Reilly. Walter Hill also re- ceived the Frank Waltz Trophy as the best first year runner.

VARSITY HOCKEY SQUAD CONQUERS FOE The 1959 Varsity Hockey Team began their season with a lot of fire and kept the flame burning throughout the entire season. The girls played every game with the will-to-win, cooperation, and school spirit. The results of their hard work leave a terrific record of five wins, one loss and two ties. Even the loss, which was with Swarthmore, was said to lie the best played game of the year. This remarkable record was not the only high- light of the season. These girls worked well to- gether and scored 27 goals for one season, breaking the previous record set at 22 in 1946. Of these 27 goals, 14 were scored by Jeri I .aird who broke the individual scoring record. This was set in 1946 with 9 goals. These were checked with the previous records available. The coach. Miss Sigrun Bassoe, was very proud of the job accomplished by these girls. The season officially ended on November 17, when the varsity members’ mothers prepared turkey for the traditional banquet. Student Council awarded each senior member of the team a miniature gold hockey ball. These will lte greatly appreciated as a remembrance of the enjoyable hockey season of 1959. There are a few members of the team who work just as hard as the players but get the least recog- nition. These girls, the managers, were led this year by Pat Osborne.

MAKES GOOD RECORD The Junior Varsity Hockey Team deserves much credit and recognition. Many people fail to realize just how vital these girls are. Their importance lies in the fact that within the next couple of years they will find the varsity positions left vacant by the graduates of this year. Many of these girls were inexperienced, hut after a season of hard practicing and playing, they mastered many of the techniques of the game. Defeating the first o| position placed the J.V.'s in the driver’s seat, hut they quickly moved to the hack seat by losing the next three games. This gave them added spirit, and they won the next four games to finish the season with a fine record of 5-3-0. With nine open positions on the varsity, the J.V s have a big job on their hands. Many will Ik working hard to complete this job. VARSITY FOOTBALL SENIOR HIGH FOOTBALL TEAM First Row: Hughey, Connor, Adams, Grove, Dugan.

W inning six games, losing one, and tying one, the team set a good record. This season was somewhat better than the record indicates. Undefeated Clifton Heights provided us with our only loss and that by a mere six points. As for the tie game with Interboro on Thanksgiving Day, it could have easily been a victory, as we had a touchdown called lxack because of a rule infraction. This year the team used the “T” formation for the hrst time, and, as the record shows, it worked very well. During the three years that the boys from the C lass of 1960 participated, our team has a 15-8-1 record which is very commendable. The team can l e proud of its two Co-Captains, Alex McCIoskey and Ronald Lewis. Ron also was center on this year’s first string All-Delco team. This year, as in previous years, we have always had good school support; at every game our bleachers were swelling with fans. We would es- pecially like to thank the townspeople for their vigorous support. With our attention focused on the varsity team we must not forget the wonderful work done by our junior varsity and junior high teams. They are the teams who will provide the players for the varsity in the future years. The junior varsity this year had a record of 3 wins and 2 losses. We know they will be undefeated next year. This 1959 season for the junior high team was tinder the able supervision of Mr. Laurence Menghetti and new coach Mr. Jere Frey. The team had a record of 4 wins. 1 loss and 1 tie game with Alfred Roth and Bruce Wilson scoring the most points. Ninetyeight SENIOR SQUAD MEMBERS first Knur Hughey. Iredalc, Connor, McCloskcy, R.

BASKETBALL PARKERS ADD VICTORIES The boys' varsity basketball team had a very fine season under the capable leadership of coach Samuel Godfrey and captain John Ratliff. This year’s team had plenty of experience behind them and they demonstrated it on the court. The I toys played sixteen games, winning eleven of them. Bill Iredale was the high scorer for this season. The games lost were usually by a close margin. Though it was not a ] erfect season, the team dis- played the fine competitive spirit and sportsman- ship of Ridley Park. Coach John Wilson’s junior varsity team fol- lowed the winning ways of the varsity team in fine form. With Darryl Lawrence as the captain, this year’s squad has one of the l� est records com- piled in many years. Swish! two more points scored. This is the sight in the gymnasium when the girls' varsity team is in action. Coach Sigrum Bassoe and BOYS’ JUNIOR VARSITY Mackey (Manager), Mr. Wilson (Coach), Vanella (Manager). captain Mary Anne Bullock have guided the “Parkerettes to a teriftic season which included only two defeats. Mrs. Grace Bogard hel]x-d with the coaching this season. The junior varsity girls’ team has much poten- tial power to offer coach Sigrun Bassoe for next season. With Barbara Stiles and Nancy Martin as co-captains, these young ladies have tried to equal last year’s undefeated season. The J. V.’s have a record of winning six games and losing two. The Boys and Girls Junior High teams have not been too successful this year. Although they have lost more games than they have won, the teams fought well and displayed fine sportsmanship. As the basketball season at Ridley Park closed, the teams could not forget those in the sidelines who cheered them to victories. To Senior-High cheer- leaders. parents and friends, we all owe a vote of thanks. GIRLS’ JUNIOR VARSITY Furiani (Manager), I.anyon (Manager), Martin (Co-Captain).
