Students still cram for physics and English, protest against the ad- ministration and worry about graduating. Senior leaders stillare in mental anguish about the deadline for the FLYER or the RETROSPECT. Hairstyles, hemlines and appurtenances might be different, but the spirit and loyalty have never changed.

Arriving from Manchester, England, in August of 1965, Janice quickly adjusted to life with her American parents, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Borden, daughter June and son Robbie. Having already graduated from high school in England, Janice decided to try to master a combined junior-senior scho- lastic course taught the American way. However, Janice still found time for several extracurricular activities. As a member of the senior high chorus and the Future Nurses Club, she enjoyed herself as part of a group. As a senior manager of the girls' basketball team, Janice per- formed a needed service as an individual. Upon returning to England, Janice will attend college to become a pharma- cist. Good luck, Janice, and we hope you enjoyed your stay as 'Bean' from Britain . 29 Who’s Who . . . MOST ABSENT-MINDED: Steve Tomlinson, Kathy Keller. MOST DIGNIFIED: Dave MacQueen, Marilyn Martin.

A teacher is a stepping stone to the future. A teacher is a lamp- post on a dark road. A teacher is help when you need it. A teacher is encour- agement when you know there is no hope. A teacher is disappointment when you know you deserved an A . A teacher is an advisor when the treasury is run- ning low. A teacher is an all-American football star, a housewife, a coach. A teacher is smart, and cunning, and knows more about cheating than his students ever will. A teacher is old-fashioned and modern just the same. A teacher is one who worries when students do not bother. A teacher is a reference at graduation. A teacher is a friend . OLIVER S. ALEXANDER Principal MICHAEL R. BERNOT Administrative Assistant Our to the Class of 1966 OnW man’s guess concerning life is that we wait some forty years before the thing begins. Another says that everything is set and fixed before we even talk, or walk, or even point a finger at the rattle on the crib. There's an answer to the question, but it does not deal with time, and has nothing much to do with science. You may start when you are willing to be honest with yourself, and to treat the other fellow with respect. You may start when you love knowledge and have faith in God, the Master - when you feel like being humble day by day. You may start when duty calls you, when you love to serve a cause, when you feel consideration for the weak and less fortunate. You may start when you are ready to defend and to obey, when the nation is in danger from foe. You may start when you have a vision and a vital, moving urge to give freely of your service to mankind.

A high school could not function without its dieticians and secre- tarial staff. The men on the cus- todial staff are the friends of every student. One can always count on a hand shake and a Hello from Henry C. Henry and his fellow workers. Mr. Ralph Nather, Mr. Henry C. Henry, Mr. Anthony Amallitano, Mr. Jesse Smith. The underclassmen of today differ slightly from the first class of 1897, when they were in the lower ranks. Except for the difference in numbers, (the Class of'97) consisted of five members, they still look forward to enjoying class parties, irritating teachers, congregat- ing in the halls, meeting friends at sporting events and performing in student assemblies. The responsibility of maintaining good finan- cial status continues to burden each class. Students today find themselves going from door to door selling everything from maga- zines to Christmas candy. Until recent years, the sophomore and junior classes, along with the senior class, produced as many as three plays in one year consistently proving'to dis- play unknown talents distributed among the students. The underclassmen are and will continue to be the backbone of the senior high school. Sophomore Class Play of 1927 Officers: K. Polinsky, Secretary, J. Taylor, Presi- dent, Mr. Michael Bernot, Advisor, J. Yorke, Treas- urer, R. Pruitt, Vice-President. With the senior year fast approaching, the juniors turn their thoughts to the monetary standing of their class. Publicity, pro- grams and practice are all parts of the traditional junior class play, the major treasury boosting pro- ject of the year. As a whole, the junior class looks forward to its senior year. Because of a merger, the class will be divided but either as a body or as individ- uals they will remember the original Class of 1967”.

They also pledge their support to many other organ- izations, including the Varsity, French and Bowling Clubs. Prior to Christmas the class bolsters its treasury by selling Christmas cards and other Christmas arti- cles. The highlight of this year is the Soph Hop. The signpost of the typical sophomore is the Bio- logy Book. Under the direction of Mr. Michael Kertis, the Class of 1968 functions as an integral part of Ridley High. FIRST ROW: B. Dougherty, L.

A class treasury is started and embel- lished through a class wide maga- zine sale with all members of the class competing for the honors of best salesman. Saving the larger part of the profits for later use, the class spends a portion of the money on the Freshman party. Having their time consumed by sports and new subjects, these neophytes of the high school world find the time passing too quickly. FIRST ROW: M. Boot, S. Bates, C. Dougherty, C. Camp, C. Blaine, C.

Acclimated to the routine and mores of the junior-senior high school, the eighth grade continues the long ascent to graduation. By this time locks and lockers are no longer a mystery, and Mr. McKeever, Mrs. Flaig and Mr. Alpaugh become new found friends. The boys finally begin to learn the plays and the junior high football team begins to take shape. Passing classes, concen- trating on homework and learning new cheers, the Class of 1970” looks forward to new and different challenges. SECTION I FIRST ROW: P. Lewis, S. Frese, J. Malloy, J.

Seventh grade is a year of challenge and change with re- wards of accomplishments and new maturity. New and varied subjects as well as extra-curric- ular activities present a wider scope for self-expression. High scholastic standing is something desired by all new members of Ridley High with results of rep- resentation on the Honor Roll. Athletic ability also has been shown in student participation in competitive sports. The Class of 1971 will always have fond memories of its first year at Ridley High. FIRST ROW: D. Vought, H.

Sports provide an outlet for an abun- dance of energy built up during long hours in school. Since competition is the spur to improvement, sports produce the qualities of good sportsmanship and cooperation in the leaders of tomorrow. Sporting programs, both interscholastic and intramural, provide entertainment for not only the students but also the parents, friends and relatives. Although sport events may not have been so strongly stressed in the early years of Ridley Park High and although uniforms may have differed from those of today, athletes and coaches have always had the dream of a winning season in mind. Competitive teams of every kind, foot- ball, tennis, hockey, track, basketball and baseball, have represented Ridley Park High proudly throughout the years. Sports’ captains of 1927.

Fife - Manager Second only to homework, extra- curricular activities occupy much of the free time of both students and teachers. Organizations and clubs range incapacity from service clubs and governmental bodies to choruses and literary publications. By paying dues regularly, the French Club sup- ports a French orphan. The Student Council attempts to voice student opinions and provide entertaining ac- tivities, such as donkeyball games. Firmly established organizations such as THE FLYER and THE RE- TROSPECT continue to serve the stu- dent body by providing contemporary news and memories of the past re- spectively. The newly formed am- plifying committee and fire patrol work respectively to provide enter- tainment and safety. Although many activities, such as the dancing club, are no longer offered there is still a place for everyone in the many ac- tivities here at Ridley Park High School. DANCING CLUB OF 1929 SEATED: C. Crawford (President), Mr. Alan Pillard (Advisor), J. Hess (Vice President). STANDING: L. Marchant (Secretary), T. Melnychuk (Treasurer). The Student Council, composed of representatives from each of the five grades, functions throughout the year endeavoring to voice student opinions and to provide social activities for the entire stu- dent body. Elected in the spring of 1965, Carl Craw- ford, president, served a one year term. This year Ridley Park High School was honor- ed by having been selected as the location of the Winter Conference of the Philadel- phia Suburban Student Coun- cil Association. Delegations from thirty-five area schools attended for the purpose of discussing general problems of all Student Councils. An integral part of each year, the Student Council, under the direction of Mr. Pillard, con- tinued to serve the student body. Our Representatives . . . STUDENT COUNCIL FIRST ROW: W. Senkow, R.

Then during the senior year the photography committee was busy with the scheduling of pictures; the literary, with the senior write-ups; the organization, with the lay- outs; the typists, with the dead-lines and the business staff, with the getting of ad- vertisements and the selling of yearbooks. The frustration of poor pictures, the loss of senior write-ups, the writing of copy, the balancing of lay-outs, and the selec- tion of the theme and cover made this year a memorable one for the editors.

In 1917 a new $100,000 building, located at the corner of Free and DuPont Streets, was dedicated to the youth of Ridley Park. After the original gymnasium auditorium unit burned in 1926, a new unit was erected in 1929 at a cost of $54,000. On the night of June 13, 1940, fire gutted the interior of the high school. Among the changes made during the renovation were more ample space for a library centrally located, a science laboratory suite and a larger ad- ministrative office, all within the original walls. During the time of rehabilitation, the community re- sponded to the need for space: the Parish House of the Episcopal Church became the science laboratory; the Baptist Sunday School rooms were used for English in- struction; the Borough basement was used for social studies; and the Borough Garage became the center for shop and mechanical drawing. Abandoned on rainy days to study hall in the Barnstormer Hail, art classes were taught by means of field trips. Classes changed at the sound of the old fire bell. An atmosphere of a college campus covered the entire borough. In 1944 six acres of land, now Cornog Field, was bought at a cost of $7,500. In 1954 an addition, housing the shop, physical therapy headquarters and athletic storage rooms, was constructed. In its 49 years Ridley Park High School has served its graduates well. Miss N. Densmore (Advisor), J. Walker (Editor). FIRE OF 1940 Unfurl the Red and White, long may it wave O’er hopes and memories true and brave.

Participating in three contests yearly, the members of the team match their general knowledge against that of stu- dents from other schools.

The local businessmen have placed advertise- ments in the RETROSPECT since the annual was first published. They have shown their generosity again in 1966 and have helped to make possible the publication of this yearbook. Our sincere thanks go out to them. Thanks are also in order to the more than three- hundred parents, friends and students who have subscribed to our list of patrons. We wish all area businesses continued success and hope that they will support the new joint school with generosity equal to that extended to the Class of 1966.
