Sun Valley High School - Spectrum Yearbook (Aston, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 108 of the 1963 volume:

Sun Valley High School inn Delco Union School District Green Ridge, Chester Pennsylvania Dedication Mr. Felix Moletteri When thie Class of 1963 looks back upon its high school years, the image of one man especially will stand out in its memories. He was a man dedi- cated to the welfare cA the school and every person connected with it. Mr. Felix Moletteri was always nearby with an earnest desire to help when problems arose. His deep understanding and sincere interest for each and every student never wavered. Whenever the need for advice was necessary, Mr. Moletteri was always willing to do far more than was necessary. To the Class of 1963, Mr. Moletteri was someone special. He shared the problems the class met as it prepared for the most important step in Sun Valley's development, the first graduating class. As the class faced the new prospects of each grade, it looked to Mr. Moletteri as a pillar of strength on whom it could rely. Now the Class of 1963 dedicates this yearbook to Mr. Moletteri, a man of strength, patience, and understanding-but above all, the man whom we all love and respect. 2 The Yearbooks are presented to the first graduating class of Sun Valley High School, the Class of 1963, by the Twelfth Grade Parents with best wishes for the future. Sun Valley High School Foreword Sun Valley High School has now reached the first stage in its continuous efforts for improvement in opportunities for its students. The result of the combined efforts of students, faculty, and administra- tion will be seen as the first graduating class completes its final year in high school with it6 commencement exercises. We, the first staff of the Spectrum, wish to project on the following pages how school life in the school term of September of 1962 to June of 1963 appeared to us. This school year was not an easy one, for split sessions disrupted the routine to which everyone had been accustomed. The first publication of the Spectrum brings with it the realization that Sun Valley has taken a long stride into the future. As the school continues along this path paved with these first events and activities, this year will be remembered — the year Sun Valley High School was introduced to the community. The staff of the Spectrum has chosen as its theme to introduce Sun Valley and throughout the book has tried to present the people and events with this theme in mind. 4 5 Board of Education SEATED, I. to r.

This is the year when Sun Valley takes its place among the leading schools of our county and state. You, as the Sun Valley Vanguards, have blazed the trail and are now our first graduating class. Your collective and individual contributions to the success of our school have been many and varied, and we hope satisfying and rewarding. Now the time has come for you to venture forth into the world and make your mark in life. Some of you will go to.college; some of you will seek technical training; others will Find jobs in industry. Whatever your choice may be, remember, your time upon the stage of life is but brief and in this drama each of you must play a part. The character is left for you to choose. It is our hope that you will make your choice with a deep sense of obligation and fidelity to the world society in which you will be living. Those of us on the Board of Education who have been given the responsibility of providing the buildings, the teachers, and the supplies, which have made your education possible, are proud of the accomplishments you have made. As we meditate upon our past endeavors, we realize that perhaps both students and board members could have done better, but this is not the time to dwell upon our past shortcomings. It is a time to catch inspiration for a high resolve to build upon our past experiences. Future successes will not come easily. You will find many of your triumphs will be bought by disappoint ments. It is our hope that the education you have received will teach you to enjoy your triumphs with good grace and to meet your disasters with courage and a will to start anew. Today we rejoice with you in seeing your high school and the Vanguards take their rightful place among the schools of Delaware County. We look forward to observing you through the years as you take your respective ploces in the world — proud graduates of Sun Volley High School. 6 Supervising Principal’s Message TRUE WORTH True worth is in being, not seeming. In doing, each day that goes by. Some little good — not in dreaming Of great things to do by and by. — Alice Gary Mr. William G. Moser Supervising Principal What in life is of most worth? For centuries philosophers have pondered this question. Is it wealth or health or prestige or friendship? Some people who lead apparently happy and productive lives seem to have found the answer; others, wallowing in despair and deprived of the feeling of satisfaction that comes from a task well done, still seem to be searching for the meaning of true worth. You who have traveled the path of life through the first stages of your education now continue your journey in quest of true worth as you seek to make your contribution to the world in which you live. As you face the challenges which will confront you, it will be well for you to remember that true worth can be found in doing some little good each day. And when the going is rough, as it is likely to be, keep your mind set on true worth, but at the same time, lest you become too dis- couraged, it might be well to remember that one of the poets also tells us —■ Heaven is not gained at a single bound; But we build the ladder by which we rise From the lowly earth to the vaulted skies. And we mount to its summit round by round. — Josiah Gilbert Holland Assistant Supervising Principal’s Message The hopes and dreams of a community have come to fulfillment in this hour. In 1956 the communities of Parkside, Brookhaven, and Aston joined together to form a unified school community with a vision — a vision of a high school which could educate and finally graduate its own students. This new school community saw the need for graduating students prepared to enter colleges and universi- ties. It, too, saw the need for graduating other students trained to go into the community as citizens and wage-earners. You, the graduating class of 1963, are the hopes and dreams — the vision — come to final decision. The graduating class of 1963 is the first of many graduating classes which will follow in the years to come. You, the class of 1963, will establish the reputation of our school. Your successes and your failures in the businesses, the industries, the colleges, and the universities will be observed by many people. The repu- tation of Sun Valley High School rests upon your shoulders. This is a very large responsibility. It is a responsibility not only to yourselves, but also to the many others who will follow you in the future years. The trail you will follow has been rough-hewn by your Mr. Walter M. Rhoades Assistant Supervising Principal Instructional Services school and your community. How smooth or rough this trail will be for those who follow depends to a large measure upon how you walk this trail before them. Although the responsibility is yours, we have confidence that you are ready to venture along the trail. As students you have met with various successes and various failures. We have enjoyed and admired your successes,- we have tried to pick you up when you have stumbled. Sometimes your teachers have appeared to be un- reasonable as they have tried to shake you loose from acting like children. We are now confident that you can look back over all the happy times, the not-so-happy times, the high marks, the low marks, the homework assignments, the athletic contests, the diffi- culties with teachers, and the many other experiences of high school as milestones in the course of growing up. We believe in you and your abilities to shoulder your responsibility as young adults. We send you forth on this happy occasion as young men and women capable of directing your lives toward usefulness and hap- piness. Godspeedl 8 Principal’s Message Mr. Felix A. Moletteri Principal The class of 1963 of the Sun Valley High School represents a milestone in the educational development of our school system and our community. This yearbook represents an accomplishment made possible by the combined efforts of many teachers and students. It will no doubt become one of the more significant pieces of literature in our community's brief history. To say farewell to the class of June 1963 is very difficult. Farewells often imply that we will no longer see one another in the future. Of course, this will be true for many of us. However, let us not forget the difficult obstacles we have overcome, the people we have known and the friendships we have en- joyed. For it is in these relationships that we have affected one another's lives and in many instances have influenced the very difficult and complicated process of maturing into adulthood. This yearbook is a realistic symbol of this adulthood. In the immediate future you will be accepting the responsibilities placed upon you by our society. You will have been trained in accordance with these responsibilities by your teachers and parents. The world In which you will live will be very different from the one in which your parents and teachers have lived. Your future will be affected tremendously by the scientific and political developments of the future. You have been already affected by our nuclear-space minded age. These advancements will have even greater effect on your lives in the future. To be properly prepared for the future you must be prepared to give of yourself in all of your endeavors. For it is in self sacrifice toward an ideal or belief that humanity conquers many problems. There will be great need in future generations for an ever-increasing tenacity of purpose on the part of individuals to maintain those social and spiritual values for which we stand and in which we believe as citizens of our democracy. For once we lose our values our lives will hold no real purpose for us. I strongly admonish you to bear your mantle in life proudly. Hold your head high as a Vanguard to the future. I wish each member of the class of 1963 success in all of your future endeavors. 9 Assistant Principal The position of the Assistant Principal is a varied one.

The Assistant Principal is in charge of all disciplinary actions in the school. Guidance Department Mr. Harry Hill Assistant Principal Aiding in the selection of courses, so that students will have a sufficient number of credits with which to gradu- ate, is one of the duties of the Guidance Department.

Through your efforts and with the guidance of our faculty and administration. Sun Valley has its first gradu- ating class. Yes, it is true we have had many trials and tribulations to over- come. Since there was no class ahead of us, we had to set the example, which other classes would follow. We hope that it was a good one. The future now lies ahead. Sun Valley has tried to prepare you for this future by offering you educational and extracurricular op- portunities. The faculty has tried to assist you in preparing for the field which you wish to pursue. There has been guidance too in the lessons of life, which should remain with you always. You have memories and experiences in your hearts that can only be remembered, never relived: those exciting football games,- the Senior Prom; those first few months of school in 1959; the mud; eating lunch in homeroom; and in some cases no desks. There were trying times, but happy times too, times that we may look back on with a smile. It has been a happy four years at Sun Valley High School. I hope all of you, just as I, will hold these years as treasures which can never be replaced. It has indeed been a pleasure for me to be your class president. I wish all of you success and happiness in whatever path you may follow. Sincerely, Paul Cass President, Class of 1963 48 Junior Class SITTING, I. to r.: S. Craig, Sec.; N. Coupe, Pres.,- R. Herbster, V. Pres. STANDING: Miss J. Geiger, Adviser; G. Parkin, Asst. Treas.; J. Dailey, Treas.; Mr. R. Moran, Adviser. The earliest social activity of the class of 1964 was the Sophomore Hop. Echo of Spring created the theme for the dance. The Spring atmosphere pervaded the November night through the use of crepe paper, a wishing well, and colored paper flowers. By sponsoring dances open to the whole school, the class helped to prepare monetarily for its junior and senior years. This was also the initial year for the sale of apple taffies by the class to faculty members and fellow students. This cccured in the fall of 1961 and 1962. Along with the apple taffy sale during this past term, the class has had several other money making projects. During the Christmas season, members of the class assisted in the sale of Christmas trees and made the top amount of sales. In January, a school dance was sponsored. Another actvity was the writing of the class constitution. The gymnasium was transformed into an Oriental scene to make the juniors feel as if they had spent several hours in Oriental Springtime on May 25 — the evening of the Junior Prom. To inhance the Oriental mood lent by the artificial ming trees, students dined in a bamboo enclosed cafe and danced under the scrolls hung from the ceiling which were inscribed with Chinese characters. To climax the year, the Juniors held a Senior Day on which the Juniors waited on their upperclassmen. As this came to an end, the Juniors realized they had become the Senior Class of 1964. A. Muller, M. Colhcun, and P. Pennington support their class by buying after school snacks from D. Alderly and C. Morgan. L. to r. 1st ROW: C. Marker, P. Yodsnukis, M. Calhoun, T. Jackson, R.

Fox, Adviser. The class of 1965 began its high school years in the fall of 1962. The first scheduled event for the class members was the election of officers. A nominating committee, comprised of representatives from each homeroom, was selected to organize a slate of candidates for the four positions as officers. The active campaign was characterized by colorful posters and enthusiastic electioneering. Along with other money making projects, the class sponsored a dance in November for the entire school. The objective of the dance was to raise money to help defray future class expenses. The Sophomore Hop, held at the school in April, was the major social event of the class year. The gymnasium was transformed into a Spring Paradise with the use of pastel tinted decorations match- ing the variety of color in the gowns worn by the young ladies. The dance brought to an end the activities of the Sophomore Class for this term. Miss M. Raffaele and Mr. W. Fox, class advisers, overlook D. Drinnan, S. Hoeffer, E. Lohin, and K.

Art Department The Art Department provides its stu- dents with training for individual de- velopment, as well as instruction for future advancement and enjoyment. Here the student may select either arts and crafts or Advanced Art. Art students learn through experi- ment. While working with a variety of materials —■ wood, metal, clay, cloth, fiber, — they also employ their talents for many school activities such as dance decorations, bulletin board and show- case displays, scenery painting for stage presentations, portraits for various clubs, and other necessities so vital in the overall functioning of school life. Mr. Neye, it's sloppy but it's funl Commercial Department Unlike other departments, the Com- mercial Department offers the students three basic sequences of courses: the accounting, the secretarial, and the clerical. Some thirteen different courses are offered for study, depending upon the area selected. Mr. R. Dick watches as students tap away. The accounting student specializes In the study of bookkeeping, and is given sufficient background to apply for a position as a beginning bookkeeper or accountant with an industrial firm. The secretarial student, receiving a two-year course in typewriting and a two-year course in shorthand, is prepared for the position of stenographer in industry. The student who pursues the clerical se- quence is given enough background in typing, filing and general clerical duties to work as a typist, file clerk, etc. In all these areas the senior year includes a course that will familiarize the student with modern business machines. Academic and Industrial Arts students are also accommodated by the Commer- cial Department. Typewriting and note- hand taking are offered to those pre- paring for college, while a general business survey course is given to those who plan to enter the industrial field. Distributive Education Distributive Education prepares stu- dents for successful careers in market- ing and distribution. The Distributive Education program of studies combines school work with practical experience on the job in approved training situ- ations in the community. In school the students are instructed in the principles of salesmanship, adver- tising, merchandising, and display. On the job they have the opportunity to put this information into practical use. Mr. G. McGormon instructs his students in the proper arrangement of a window display. The English Department offers a course of literature and grammar, a require- ment for the students of tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades. In tenth grade the year is spent studying the works of writers throughout the world and ana- lyzing the construction of our English language. Eleventh grade focuses its concentration to American literature, past and present, and further centers its attention on grammar. The door is opened to English literature in twelfth grade, while students strengthen their knowledge of grammar, both written and oral. These courses are adapted to help the young adults of the Penn-Delco Dis- trict to acquire the qualities for good personal living and achieve a social competence in the competitive world in which they live. The language arts prepare the student to take his place in society. The stu- dents must learn to communicate well, both orally and written. The English deportment also partici- pates in spelling and essay contests and each year, at least once a year, pro- vides the opportunity for a group of seniors to attend the theater by taking them to Philadelphia to one of the theaters there. English Department Mrs. Muldoon teaches her classes the p's and q's of English. Foreign Language Department The main purpose of the Language Depart- ment is to stimulate interest in foreign countries, peoples, cultures, and the langu- ages themselves. This is so very important in the small world we live in today. Four languages are now offered at Sun Valley: Latin, German, French, and Span- ish. The levels of Latin have progressed each year since the first Latin I class, so that with our first senior class, also comes our first Latin IV class. Although only three levels of German, French, and Span- ish are offered this year, next year four levels will be offered. Mr. E. Wendeler corrects Kathy's pronounciation of a difficult French phrase. Students are also able to cross languages at their will, that is, to take two different ones at the same time. This is done by many students, and by all indications, we may be harboring future diplomats in our midst. Added inspiration is given to French students, since at the end of the school year, they are awarded with membership in an honorary French society, Societe Honoraire De Francois, based only on scholarship. Homemaking Department Homemaking Education includes six areas of study. There are: Housing for the Family; Food and Nutrition; Family Clothing,- Child Care and Guidance,- Personal, Family, and Community Relationships; and Family Health and Safe Living. Each individual area of study is a vital part of the whole topic of home and family living. Students majoring in Home- making are offered the opportunity to ac- quire a complete understanding of the principles involved with keeping a home and raising a family. The main object, therefore, of a program of studies under Homemaking is to instill a proper appreciation of sound values and goals toward building a firm family unit — the mainstay of our society. Homemaking students learn the proper manner of serving. 60 Under the watchful eyes of Mr. P. Vermeuchek, J. Kozur demonstrates the use of the scroll saw to N. Marcello, C. Leake, A. Mszaneckyj, and W. Lord. Industrial Arts majors in the tenth grade are required to have ten periods of Indus- trial Arts Shops per week. The areas in which they work are wood, plastics, electricity. Graphic Arts, and general me- chanical drawing. The eleventh grade majors also have ten periods a week in the Industrial Arts Shops. The areas in which they work are general metal, machine drawing, and Graphic Arts II. Industrial Arts Department Industrial Arts presents all of the major classifications of industry to a student. Any boy who wishes may elect to become an Industrial Arts major, but he should have special interest and ability in industrial and technical fields. The boys in the twelfth grade may elect a major field of interest in which they will spend eight periods a week. Their choices are ad- vanced wood, advanced metal, or Graphic Arts III. These boys are required to take two periods a week in architectural drawing. In all grades, the boys are required to take English, social studies, and physical education. Library Students must be provided with information and source material, plus books for book reports, and also recreational reading. Teachers may also be in need of a definition for a picture with which to make a point in class. The source for all these items is, of course, the library. The library provides not only books, but college cata- Miss J. Dunkle demonstrates the usefulness of the card catalog to B. Snyder, N. Tschoepe, J. anc m 39az'nes as we Sutton, J. Read, D. McAwee, and S. Hamilton. Library instruction is provided for students so that they may be prepared to use li- brary facilities in not only their own li- brary, but college and public libraries as well. This instruction includes the use of the card catalogue. The Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature, knowledge of the Dewey Decimal System, and the reference books. This knowledge should enable stu- dents to use library facilities with great ease. 61 Mathematics Department Mr. W. Motter solves a complex math problem with the slide rule for A. Simmerman, B. Shoemaker, B. Zimmerman, J. Rothermel, and J. Bleiler. The Sun Volley Mathematics Program is designed to provide each student with the best possible foundation in mathe- matical skills, to prepare him for more advanced math, and to apply his mathematical knowledge to other fields, such as science and phychology. Knowl- edge gained in the high school can also be utilized in a vocation and in everyday situations. The academic mathematics program for the high school provides an opportunity for the student to select the subject of his choice. In the sophomore year, one is allowed to choose either geometric functions or Algebra II; in the junior year, geometric functions or intermedi- ate mathematics; and in the senior year, intermediate mathematics or advanced mathematics. Music Department Knowing that music plays an important role in daily life, the program for the Music Department has been set up to include areas to interest students with varied musical tastes. Students blend their tones under the direction of Mr. J. DeAugustine. Those students with a desire to learn the more technical aspects of this fine art may elect Advanced Music. Talents may also be expended in the instru- ment and vocal activities sponsored by the department — the marching and concert bonds, the chorus and the dance band. Cultural growth can be gained by participation in these areas. Physical Educational Department The Physical Education Department of- fers a variety of activities for the stu- dents. In the fall the girls enjoy the outdoor sports of field hockey and soc- cer, while the boys play football, soccer, and other outdoor activities. During the winter months, the students participate in basketball, work on the various pieces of apparatus, and play volley- ball. With the arrival of warmer wea- ther the students once again have their classes outside. It's at this time the game of baseball is played, and senior students are offered their choice of either tennis or archery. The physical education training pro- gram is offered to those students with a special interest in this field. This class, which meets two extra periods a week, plus regular gym classes, Jielps the student to learn the rules and regulations of the various sports in which the gym classes participate. Mr. J. Tredinnick gives the inside story to A. Proth, W. Lynch, J. Passmore, and R. Sipple, mem- bers of his health class. Intramural wrestling is also offered to boys of both the senior and junior high schools. This activitiy is the result of the physical education department's efforts to achieve physical fitness for the Students. The science department has adopted a curriculum which prepares its students for future academic study. The program consists of a variety of courses, including physics, chemistry, earth and space science, and Advanced Science, all of which in- corporate mathematics as an important basis for scientific study. Science Department Sophomores may choose either earth and space science (including astronomy, geology, and meteorology), or chemistry. Completing the studies of chemistry and physics, the student may enter the Advanced Science Course. This course deals with physics, organic chemistry, and ad- vanced biology. Mr. J. Ruth helps his physics students, T. Greenleaf, S. Hilliard, B. Wieble, S. Hussey, B. Wright, and P. Kennan, weigh some weighty problems. Pupils at Sun Valley are encouraged to be scientists as well as students. The Annual Science Fair affords the stu- dent an opportunity to display his scientific knowledge by preparing a project for this competition. The study of science in high school is invaluable to the student, not only be- cause it prepares him for further aca- demic development in the sciences, but also because it develops in him the quality of disciplined thinking. Social Studies Department Mr. Barraclough instructs pupils in world affairs. The Social Studies Department consists of courses in world cultures, American history, problems of democracy, and economics. The World Cultures Department tries to create an understanding of the rest of the world. It shows how Eastern cultures influenced our Western ideas so that it is truly one world we live in. By taking a course in economics, the student is enlightened concerning the ways In which the American people earn their living, the stock market, taxes, and other facets of the economic system in his country. Good citizens are created through critical thinking and better understanding of the government. Besides achieving this, American History also establishes a thorough knowledge of our nation's growth. By delving into the problems of democracy, students learn the mechanics of our own government and study about present governmental situations. The Social Studies Department's aim is not only to create good study skills, but also to teach the leaders of tomorrow how to help bring about world harmony. Crafts are taught by Mr. Sassaman to an interested group of students. Special Education Department Junior High School Classes Miss C. Cook looks on as her students enter the magic world of literature. The Ghost in the Attic becomes a re- ality in a play presented by Mr. J. Mollahan's related studies class. Custodial Staff STANDING — I. to r. — Mr. A. Grif- fith, M. H. Armstrong, Mr. C. Arm- strong, Mr. J. Roberts, Mr. E. Carpen- ter KNEELING - Mr. M. Rosenberg, Mr. W. Blackburn, Mr. H. Shellender. Nurse’s Suite Mrs. Irons in action — B. Mulhern out of action. Mrs. Elizabeth Irons, School Nurse. Dr. Walichuck gives E. Wells his physical examination. As at most schools, casualties and slight mishaps are bound to occur during the course of a school day. At the first Ouch, heard from a student in distress, our school nurse, Mrs. Elizabeth Irons, is on the scene. Although always busy, Mrs. Irons has found time to establish the Future Nurse's Club, which was the first organization at Sun Valley. Among her other duties, she conducts eye and hearing tests as well as keeping up-to-date records on every student. To complement Mrs. Irons in the school health force is Dr. John Walichuck, our physician. He serves as an adviser to the nurse in planning ond coordinating medical and nursing service. The combined duties of doctor and nurse include athletic examinations for all partici- pants in sports along with physicals for students. Penn-Delco has indeed foreseen the need for supervised health care and provided this as evidenced in our department ot Sun Valley. 66 Student Council Addressing the group, D. McCray. L. to r. J.

Participation in one's government is an important step in de- veloping good habits of citizenship. The students of Sun Valley assist in governing the school through Student Council. The Coun- cil is composed of members elected from each homeroom and the officers which were chosen by the members of the student body. The adviser is Mrs. Patricia Muldoon. The aims of the Student Council are stated in its constitution. They include development of good relations between students and faculty, promotion and direction of student activities, assistance in school management, and encouragement of good citizenship. The constitution was written by the members of the Council and ex- presses the main goal of the Council for Sun Valley's future. The Student Council of 1962-63 has directed assembly programs, sponsored Tag Day and Dress-Up Day and assisted in commun- ity drives, such as Toys for Tots and the collection of canned goods for needy families. Each year at Christmas time, they sponsor a Snowball Dance at which they crown a Snowball Queen. In the spring, they sponsor the April Showers Dance. The climax of the year comes at the Annual Banquet for active members of the Student Council. The guests include the Supervising Principal, the Principal, officers of PTL, various faculty members, four students from each grade, and other people in the community. After the dinner is served, there is a program consisting of enter- tainment and guest speakers. Through participation in this organization, students gain knowl- edge about the workings of government and parliamentary proced- ure. L. to r. D. McCray, Pres.; D. Logan, V. Pres.; Mrs. P. Muldoon, Ad- viser; S. Hussey, Sec.; J. Brutsche, Treas. That's right, extra largel L. to r. D. Hasiuk and V. Stuart prepare to make purchases at the school store from T. Phillips. 68 National Honor Society The formation of the National Honor Society is another step taken by Sun Valley in its efforts to offer more opportunities for the recognition of achievements. This club was organized in 1962-1963 under the direction of Mr. J. Ruth. After the grades of the junior and senior students are averaged, the names of those students who have attained a 3.000 aver- age or better are given the faculty ad- visory committee to be considered for mem- bership. This club is unique in the fact that each member is selected for the club. Students are picked not only on the basis of scholarship, but also on citizenship, leadership, service, and character. The purpose of the National Honor Society is to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate desire to render service, to pro- mote leadership, and to develop character in the students of Ameri- can secondary schools. SEATED: I. to r.: C. Carpenter, Mr. J. Ruth, L. Legates, S. Rowgo. STANDING: C. Walling, R. Willing, W. Fulmer, P. Cass, K. Garret, A. Zimmerman, G. Phillips, (absent J. Bleiler). The Sun Valley Chapter of the National Honor Society received its charter in January, 1963. The members were recognized in an assembly. The Notional Thespian Society, Troupe 1001, of Sun Valley High School originated in the fall of 1961 when the society presented several short plays to the faculty and the student body. National Thespian Society Since that time, the Dramatics Club has produced five full length plays,- Mother Is A Freshman, Our Town (1961), Arsenic and Old Lace, The Diary of Anne Frank (1962), and You Can't Take It With You (1963). The society consists of twenty seniors, thir- teen juniors, six sophomores, and is under the direction of Mr. R. Neye. It is open to the entire student body. Membership into the society is secured by the amount of time a student spends in acting, stage designing, make-up, sound effects, and other technical work. During this year, the society has begun a patron and advertisement drive for each play program. The money derived from these campaigns will go to students in the society who have exemplified outstanding achievement in the advancement of drama- tics in the senior high school.

In September of 1960, the first marching band of Sun Valley High School, consisting of 45 members, was formed under the direction of Mr. Joseph DeAugustine. At this time, additional units of the band consisted of the Majorettes and the Color Guard. The Ma- jorettes were originally supervised by Miss Mary Ann Romeo, a sec- retary at the Green Ridge Elementary School at that time, later the task was done by Mrs. Shirley Soccia. The Color Guard was trained by Mrs. Judith Harris, then a teacher at Sun Valley. Through a growing enthusiasm of the students, the band had grown from 45 to 80 members by the spring of 1961. The Drill Team was formed in 1961, under tne guidance of Mr. Robert Ludlow, a former Navy man and the father of a student at Sun Valley. With the profits of a County Fair each fall plus money from other activities, the Band and Choral Association has been able to provide uniforms for the members of the Band, the Color Guard, the Majorettes, and the Drill Team. In 1962-63, there were 134 marching members fully dressed. The band has performed for various civic associations and pa- rades throughout the year. In September of 1962, the Band par- ticipated in the Miss America Beauty Pageant Parade in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The Band was also selected one of two bands from Delaware County to march in the Inaugural Parade for Governor William Scranton in January, 1963. Another parade in which the Band took part was during the Apple Blossom Festival in Virginia on May 3. 70 Color Guard L. to R. KNEELING: C. McCue. L. Penniwell. STANDING: M. Armstrong, P.

A dramatic presentation of mounting suspense and lasting impact was presented to local audiences when the National Thespian Society presented The Diary of Anne Frank in the high school auditorium in November, 1962. Preparations for this production began in spring, 1962. Work on the elaborate stage set required for the play continued through the summer. The set cost $400 and required more than three months to construct, plaster, and paint. The authentic looking stage furniture was gathered from the community and at auc- tions. Actual rehearsals commenced on October. The story of the play centers around two Jewish families who are hiding from the Nazis Is a deserted attic atop a ware- house in Amsterdam, Holland.

Sun Valley's football team compiled its first winning record in its second year of varsity competition, registering five victories while losing three games and tying one. Its record of three victories and three defeats in Suburban Section Three games gained Sun Valley a tie with Lansdowne-Aldon for fourth place. The Vanguards' opening game demonstrated the sort of foot- ball Sun Valley fans would be seeing for the next eight weeks. The Vanguards gained a 12-0 upset victory over Lansdowne- Aldan as quarterback John Walter and co-captain and half- back John Tillman each scored one touchdown. The Vanguard defense was tight, and Lansdowne was never able to pene- trate Sun Valley territory deeper than the twenty yard line. In their next game the Vanguards received a heart-breaking 7-6 setback at the hands of Nether Providence. A N-P touchdown and extra point conversion on the first ploy of the game proved the deciding factor. The Vanguards retaliated with a touch- down in the second period, but the extra point attempt failed. In the fourth period it appeared that the Vanguards had added the winning touchdown, but the play was nullified by a hotly disputed penalty called against Sun Valley. The Vanguards routed Methacton, 41-0, in their most produc- tive offensive game of the season, as five Vanguards scored. Varsity football team: I. to r., 1st ROW: J. Bleiler, R. Miller, C.

The Vanguards gained an early 12-6 lead. The victory was preserved, however, in the final minute of play when, after a Media defender had stolen the ball and raced downfield for what appeared to be a sure touchdown to tie the score, Ray Sipple and Dwight Coe brought him to the ground |ust inches short of the goal line. The stout defensive line then held Media for the final minute in an outstanding goal line stand. Robbie Miller (12) runs back to kickoff against Chichester. Other Van- guards are Denny Potts (50), Nick Marcello (24), Ray Kauffman (62), and Roy Sipple (31). In a non-league contest with highly touted Ridley Park, Sun Valley emerged with a decisive 32-0 victory. The Vanguard de- fensive unit allowed the visitors to gain little yardage and forced them to make numerous costly mistakes. The Vanguards rolled to their third consecutive victory by downing Conshocken, 39-13. The team concluded its successful campaign by battling Penncrest, of Section Two, to a 13-13 tie. With Sun Valley trailing, 13-0, late in the third quarter Dwight Coe ran for a touchdown. The extra point ottempt was nullified by a penalty, and Sun Valley was behind, 13-6. At this point it was Tillman who saved the day for Sun Valley. He had been gaining great yardage all afternoon, and in the final period, he almost singlehandedly brought the team back from the brink of defeat. He carried the boll downfield in a series of power- ful runs, the most outstanding of which was a 35 yard sprint through the entire Penncrest team, during which at least nine defenders had their hands on him before finally bringing him down. Two plays later he crashed across for the final touchdown of the season, and Bill Fulmer's extra point kick tied the score, 13-13. Vanguard coaches and co-captains confer. L. to r.

Sun Valley has ended its second season in varsity basketball competition with the completion of the 62-63 season. Of the fourteen league games, the Van- guards won eight, scoring victories over Interboro, Media, Nether Providence, Swarthmore, and two against Methacton. The Vanguards opened their season with four non-league tilts, which featured victories over Eddystone, Oxford, and Kennett Square. Against Eddystone the Vanguards had to stave off a late Stoner rush to save the game for their first win 46-43. The Vanguards took an opening lead and never trailed, though were given some anxious moments as Eddystone pulled close in the final quar- ter! Although their only pre-season loss was to Penncrest, the game was more exciting than the 74-53 score would indicate. The Vanguards tied the score at 48, but the Lions' shooting got hot and overpowered the Vanguards. In the r.egular season opener against Chichester, Sun Volley almost scored an upset, holding the high-scoring Eagles to 15 points in the first half, but were outscored 16-3 in the third period, and could not overcome the lead. The Van- guards faired better with Interboro as Paul Bartkow scored 23 points in helping Sun Valley to a 57-53 victory. The Vanguards won a 56-49 decision over Media early in the season with Paul Bartkow scoring 27 points, but were beaten by the same club later in the season on Media's court. The Vanguards also split with the Garnets of Swarth- more, winning the second game 57-50 with Brian Mulhern leading the team to victory with 18 points. Sun Volley pulled one of the major upsets of the year in basketball by downing Nether Providence on the Sun Valley court, snapping the Bulldogs' thirteen game winning streak. The victory, which stunned a pocked house, saw John Tillman score 18 of his 20 points in the second half leading the team to victory. The Vanguards also participated in the annual Volley Forge Kiwanis Tourna- ment during the Christmas Vacation. In their first game they were beaten by the eventual winner of the tourney.

Their opponents in the new season included such long-established teams as Chester, Haverford, Ridley Township, Springfield, Upper Darby, Marple- Newtown, and Penncrest. Most of the teams were from Section One schools, those having the largest enrollment in Delaware County. The team's schedule got under way with its first game against Upper Merion in a non-league contest. The game was won by Sun Valley, 3-1, for their first victory. Another highlight of the season was a scoreless tie with Springfield, in which both teams played defensive ball. In their final game of the season, the Vanguards had a heart-breaking 1-0 loss at the hands of Marple-Newtown. The Van- guards had shot after shot blocked, and Marple's one lone goal was enough to provide the margin of victory. Mr. Jones felt that the team cfained valuable experience from the past season.

Rahl Sun Valley High School! — a sound familiar to Sun Valley football and basket- ball fans since the year 1960 A.D. when the Cheerleaders were or- ganized by a teacher at the school. Miss Mary Stevenson. The following term Mrs. Barbara Metzgar, a mem- ber of the Physical Education De- partment, took charge of the girls and drilled them into a precision squad. Mrs. Judith Alexander, a teacher of mathematics, took over the sponsorship in January of 1963. Under her direction, the Cheer- leaders developed new cheering skills and added new yells to their repertoire. The Cheerleaders are twelve in number, several chosen from each of the senior high school grades. Since the cheers are not adaptable to so large a group, the girls cho- sen from the Sophomore Class are Junior Varsity Cheerleaders. Throughout the year, the Cheer- leaders have several activities aside from cheering at the games. They sponsor an annual Sadie Hawkins Dance,- they march in parades; and, each year, they attend a Cheerlead- ing Clinic in order to learn new cheers and demonstrate their own cheering skills. 98 Patrons Mr. and Mrs. James Algeo Mr. and Mrs. Bartholf Mr. and Mrs. Bateman Mr. and Mrs. Wayne M.
