l THE KEY presented by -the Sensor Class of VVARTI-IIVICJRE I-'I IGI-I SCHOOL Svva rthrnore , Penns The opening words of the Alma Mater will recall many memories through the years as we, in our hearts go back-go back and look through the doors, through the keyhole, to view the faces and the places that have been such an integral part of our last years. Per- haps, as we look back into this book, we may remember the weaving together of our whole school life-the indestructible threads of work and tradition, and the richness and color of humor. Throughout our lives, no matter where we are taken, one thread will, glimmering, re- peat itself as we go- Swarthmore High we sing thy praises . . . if ,A: K' Q? -'L ff , .,N- ' X ff'-yu 'T' A ,fgix I ,1 3 S 'N:4L3F 'Q 'Jv fif?Sf'f J 1 . .

M aculty Upon entering the Junior High, we are met at the top of the stairs by the smiling faces of Mr. Miller and Mr. Bell. Behind those smiling faces are fiendish ideas of drill- ing into us the basics of mathematics and social studies. In the next few years, social studies turns into history as we learn the problems of democracy with Mrs. Seymour, how to shovel it at Gettysburg with Pappy Yocum, and fight out Hammu- rabi's Code with Mr. Hofmann.

The noisy end of the fine arts is exhibited between the tooting and banging of Mr. Holm's groups and the vocalizing of Miss Gooda1l's. Not to be left out of the noise, the clicking of Mrs. Martin's sewing ma- chines, the clattering of Mrs. Foley's type- Dr. Irwin, Mr. Conte, Miss Strouse, Mr. Snyder. Mrs. Mathews, Miss Zimmer, Miss McKie, Mrs. Becker, Miss Arm- strong. ag... writers, and the clanging of Mr. Watkins' hammers prove that we're being vocation- alized, as well as academicalized. Ready to separate the ain't's from the am not's are Mrs. Becker, Mrs. Wright, and Miss McKie, and a little later, Miss Armstrong manages to set us philos- ophizing on Walden Pond.-Seniors strongly suspect Mrs. Mathews and librarian Mrs. Boulter of pawning the senior English books for pocket money to buy some games, just like Miss Zimmer's. 542 Our Nlathernatncs.

Ready to take us apart in the belief that everything is sporting are Mr. Reese. Miss Told, Allen, and 'tCoach Roh- inson. We're just glad that Mrs. Kenny is always ready with the hot water bottle. To round out an academic program, of course, there must he more music, and Dr. Irwin with his Latin Christmas Carols is a master here, while Miss Strouse's Cantique de Noel and Mr. Snyder's Tannen- haumf' run a close second. All in all, if we survive these methods. we find ourselves grateful in the end to our hard working faculty. Miss Goodall. Mrs, Boulter. Mr. XYatkins Mrs. Foley, Mrs. Martin, Mr. Holm.

Bush School Boa rd The School Board consists of five resi- dents of Swarthmore, who serve as our busi- ness managers. Among their duties they must interview and appoint teachers for the high school and both elementary schools. All matters, such as new equipment and financial accounts, are referred to the Board. Primarily, they must prepare and authorize the budget for the year. Although most of us seldom see the Board, we can appreciate the time and effort they con- tribute to maintain and improve our school. SCHOOL BOARD - Charles C. Marting John F.

' ' . . . . t ll . . . semester . . . blind without his glasses . . . As our Senior year comes to a close, we recall many good times we had together, from our big jump into school to the day of graduation. The time finally came when we left home and mother to go into the big, big world. It was in kindergarten with Miss Price and Mrs. Enders that we had the trip to the zoo, our own band, and skinned knees. Gordon Smith became the center of attention when he fell off the see-saw and broke his leg! The first grade found us even more grown-up. Now we spent the whole day in school. lAt that time it was a pleasure.J Reading became a favorite pastime, with Look and See as our first book. In the . . f .-.-- X .- ll afternoon, we were still obliged to take naps on the moth-eaten, old, army cotsg how- ever, we had fun because we were enter- tained with stories. In second grade we made many field trips, including walks through the college woods. On one such excursion, Eddie Noyes got into trouble by dropping a worm down one girl's back. While those fatal conferences were go- ing on between our mothers and teachers, our class would enjoy a breather from classes by watching movies and magicians in the auditorium. This year all the girls became pinned, not to fraternity men or football heroes, but to the Brownie oath of honor. This meant a lot to many of us and gave us our first real responsibility, which was selling cookies. Third grade brought the spectacular production of the Rutgers Avenue Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Circus, which had everything from snake charmers to dancers. At this time the eternal boy-chase- girl routine began. The boys made the girls squeal and run, but the girls sure loved it. Q Q 'UB At last a change! Cub scouts made the boys into pint-sized gentlemen in fourth grade. The famous expression these days rang through the halls, Please go away, Preston, you're bothering me! This year College Avenue gave a play of Many Na- tions which turned out to be a smash- ing success. Promising talent was already sprouting. Fifth grade saw the beginning of home- work. Oh, those fractions! We were really livin'. The 45 degree angle tree became the favorite rendezvous for all fifth graders. QQWY - Fi- ! 1254. 'la al. . 4 .i 53. 5,-gg., At last, seniors of elementary school! Now the leaders! Being members of the Safety Patrol gave us a feeling of impor- tance, and to add to our responsibilities, College Avenue gave a bake sale which was very successful, except for the chocolate- chip cookies baked with chicken fat. Here the girls first realized that there is no sub- stitute for Crisco! Bill Welliver's square dance party at the Women's Club topped the list of social events for the year. The big lift came in seventh grade. We were with the high school crowd. The two classes were merged into one big happy group. Dancing class was in the limelight because we learned to dance, even though we had to watch our feet. The brightest spots were the games of flashlight, at our frequent parties. In eighth grade we had our first taste of a big dance. The J. J .'s gave a turnabout dance, which was particularly enjoyable when all the older kids left to go to the Strath Haven Inn fire. We had to work hard to get all that information for our C.S.U. reports for Mr. Bell. This year also brought the sight of the famous blouses from sewing class. Our class really grew in ninth grade when all the new kids came from out-of- town. This year we were leaders of the Junior High School. We had sparkle dust plus for our own J. J. Dance, Showboat. Latin and Algebra I became our biggest headache this year. Time charts! Yes, that was tenth grade. We finally got a taste of real work. It wasn't all work, though. We gave our own Coro- nation Ball which proved to be profitable and also fun. We began participating in the J. V. and Varsity sports this year. In eleventh grade we began to live dan- gerously. Most of us could drive! Many in- teresting things happened this year. Crum Creek became a popular spot in the winter, and we had a real whopper of a class party. We took Philadelphia by storm when we visited some homes for art class. Midnight in Manhattan was the theme of that mem- orable Junior Prom. We're finally here! Seniors, with a bright outlook toward college! This year has been chuckfull of wonderful experiences, such as an undefeated football season, senior parties, participation in a demonstration square-dance, Street of Dreams, and many more exciting times. It has been a good year, even though College Boards and Senior Themes cast a slight shadow. Dianne Peters and Willis Skillman are two new members of our class who joined us the second semester of our Senior year. Dianne is from Winchester, Virginiag and Willis is from Easton, Pennsylvania. Now that we have come to the end of our Swarthmore school days, we look back to all the varied experiences we had and look forward to the big step into the future. -si f D SJ! 34 Acadenny Avva rds PHYLLIS ADAMS PETER ASCH MAGGIE ATUANYA GAIL BAUER FERRELL BECK EARLE BIEDLING JOAN BLANTON BOB BORER STUART BOWIE BETSY BRINKMANN MARTHA CALHOUN MARYBETH CARNEY NANCY CARROLL STEVE CARTER JEAN COE JOHN COLEMAN JOHN DARLING GINNY DECAINDRY TERRY DELLMUTH JANE DERRICKSON MARGIE FEESER DICK FELLOWS PAM FOSTER LIZ GIBSON JIM GODFREY J EANNE GOFF ED GRANT THOM GOLDMEYER MANUEL HALLIER BARBARA HARLOW BOB HETHERINGTON JAY HIND PRESTON HOLLANDER DORRIE HOPKINS GINNY HUBBELL CHARLIE HUMMER MIKE HURD MIKE IACONO KATHY JESSUP BARBARA JONES Lwzng It Up You Cant Take It Wzth You Queens Royal Tour How To Marry A Mzllzonazre Lucky Me Champagne For Caesar Przde Of The Bluegrass The Glenn Mzller Story Lzttle Caesar Woman s World Executwe Suzte Fmal Test If I Had My Way Call Me Madam 7 Brzdes For 7 Brothers The Gambler From Natchez Laughmg Anne Man Of Conflzct Gay Adventure Born Yesterday Son Of Paleface The Scoutmaster Lovely To Look At Highway Dragnet One Touch Of Venus High And Dry The Great Caruso Go West Young Man Woman Of The Town Scotch On The Rocks The Desperado Horsm Around Red Shoes Wzldfire Young Man Wzth A Horn The Thunderzng Herd The Rand zz Belles On Thezr Toes ffl ffl' mxfxl My ,H I Sf' ,....................................,......,... 1 ..... 1ffffffff.ff ..,....,..... ff 2 .,....................................

To do this, Swarthmore has established a three fold academic program, stressing intellectual, physical, and spiritual de- velopment. Man has always striven to balance the three sides of his developmentg and in history and English, the Swarthmore student learns how man has progressed toward this goal. The student leams in ninth grade, about man's latest improve- ment, democracy, and in tenth, he begins the world culture course-a study of man from the beginning to the present. But Mr. Hofmann and Miss Zimmer do not neglect the other aspects of school workg for Happy Henry starts each class with physical exercises, tlive dances and push- upsj, and Miss Zimmer lures Sophomores into her room after school with phonograph records' and games. This achievement by Miss Zimmer must make the other teachers jealous, for eleventh grade is a change to more work and less play. The study of the American and French Revo- lutionary periods includes an increased amount of literatureg and with only a few field trips to break the monotony, the Juniors find it necessary to seek new methods of removing excess energy. They lengthen their themes in Pappy's classes, tin hopes of higher gradesl, and talk more often eadin in English. The study of man comes to a climax in the twelfth grade - especially in English. Mrs. Mathews greets the seniors with a smile, and an outline of work. But nobody seems to mind! To- gether with English, Contemporary Problems pro- vides a chance to hear what the other person has to say, ta part of spiritual developmentj, but sometimes killing chops and witty side remarks occur too frequently, as they do in C. P. This year's Contemporary study of man concludes the world culture course. use l u M C EX 'my 5 ,,l l Another field that includes the study of man is science and mathematics. A knowledge of the development, composition, and function of the world is necessary for one to understand man's Fli'l:il1 9 Riih rrieiic actions, and the field of mathematics and science provides a background for other classes. Mr. Klemmer could philosophize further on man's need for mathematicsg and besides his geometric theorems, he is known for his lessons on the geometric girl. Klemmer's classes afford a truly sound chance to develop the three sided square. 'I The intellectual side of man's development is more carefully considered in Mr. Duncan's classes. In here, intellectual efforts are occasion- ally broken by formula reminders, tests, and homework. Incidentally, getting homework done in class is quite an achievement. Mr. Duncan has the useful gift of reading upside down what you write before you write it! As long as the secretary stays out of here, one can be sure the student will leam his mathematics. The secretary visits physics and chemistry classes, too. It is a wonder that the lab is still intact, for one cannot mix physics and physique and expect to get work done. Mr. Marish has tried to make physics physics, and chemistry chemistry, but even he has girl troubles. Con- sidering the talk about work in physics, and bomb formulas in Chemistry, one may arrive at various conclusions about the content of these classes. il. Biology more completely includes the devel- opment, composition, and function of the world, especially living things. It has been said that biology is one of the more necessary and useful courses. Miss Barten definitely finds it more use- ful: knowing that the country's forests are still small, she carefully divides each test paper into two inch squares to economize. In another class, Hxunan Relations, Miss Barten's students learn why man acts as he does. All together the sciences and mathematics provide the basis for the study of man in every class. fToM -.-F lu Another way in which Swarthmore provides the intellectual development of the student is through the language courses. The understanding of a language is another part of the culture and lmderstanding of man. By studying Latin the student can leam about the ancient Romans' customs and culture, and Little Caesar fre- quently supplements the Roman glory with his own contributions. The study of French and German gives one a picture of two more modern nations. Under the guidance of Miss Strouse, a 'lf ln ,gf 632 .1 knowledge of French history and customs rises only through one's efforts to decipher the lan- guageg consequently, the French student soon dis- covers that French is not all wine, women, and song. German classes are similar as far as the lack of wine, but somehow the women and song manage to survive with the help of Herr's puns. Other than this gaiety of German, is a difficult adventure in daily twenty word tests and pre' positive attributive constnictions, showing that the best way to understand man is to study what he writes. Beside expressing himself physically, intel- lectually, and spiritually with words, man also expressed himself through other means of crea- tion: music and art. Miss Hancock has shown students in the world culture course how man expressed himself in art, and in other classes students also learn how to create. Mr. Watkins provides a like opportunity in his shop and mechanical drawing classes, and in the home ec room, Mrs. Martin is fashioning man's future wife. Miss Goodall contributes a lively study of music in the world culture course, and Mr. Holm gives the students a chance to create his own music fthose queer solmds at the east end of the hall.J Man will always want to create, and here in Swarthmore High School he leams how to do it. How to do it? It's easy',, Coach would say. Gym is obviously the biggest contribution to the student's physical improvement. Coach himself will tell you that man's got muscles and some day man's got to use them, now is the time to leam how! Boys, you should be able to do fifty pushupsf' Miss Allen seems to have the same ideas, and she, like Coach, demands clean gym clothes. Coach didn't have the same luck that Miss Allen did with the girls: he had to install new-mown hay machines in the locker room, fand he didn't get enough of them.J Locker room odor is evidence of the physical development in gym- All school development could not be possible without the personal guidance of three individ- uals: Mrs. Boulter, Miss Peck, and Mr. Bush. Mrs. Boulter helps students with her advice and assistance in selecting books, Miss Peck helps students plan for the future, and Mr. Bush helps students and the school over the rough spots. Everyone has experienced the guidance offered by these three to help him gain a secure future. So now, by the end of the Senior year, Swarthmore High School has developed citizens physically, intellectually, and spiritually fit to face the world. Each has obtained his physical worth, mostly from gym, his intellectual worth mostly from classes, and his spiritual worth from all those around him-teachers, visitors, office personnel, janitors, Mrs. Boulter, Miss Peck, Mr. Bush, and his friends and fellow students. The graduated citizen of Swarthmore High School must truly be a worthy citizen of the United States. ,Sk 0 0 co' Z n + Al -17 WN J' V1 H-c-H in --..-in -fn C05 EQQEESE .. ...I ..:.'ll ...::ll llll 'lll::: ' ll 91.

Every football game, drizzle or shine, the high school band was on the field, adding a lot to our school spirit. Led by Mr. Holm in his white uniform, Bob Borer, captain, and the twirling and twisting baton of Jane MacAlpine, it presented an original routine at each game. Not only did the band perform at the nine games, but it also led the Halloween parade, and participated in the College Alumni Day and Memorial Day Ceremonies. Band has its cultural aspects, as well as showmanship, as shown in the concert given each spring and in the number of members sent to District and State Bands.

It has played in several school assemblies, including the combined Chorus-Orchestra Christmas Assembly. Two members, Nancy Carroll and Debby Reeder took tirst chair positions at District orchestra at Prospect Park, and Debby Reeder went to represent Swarthmore at State Orchestra.

Any school, to complete its musical program, must have vocal as well as instrumental groups. The bulk of this need is filled by the high school mixed chorus. Chorus really has a dual purpose to fulfill: one, aiding students to become better singers, and the other, combining the fun of singing with responsibility. On that line, no chorus member can forget to be at school by eight o'clock three mornings a week, so that secretary Becky Beck will mark him present in her book. Besides participating in the Christmas Community sing, and presenting the Spring Concert, chorus also sends representatives to District and State Choruses. Chorus can certainly claim a very successful season, due, in part, to student interest, under president Karl Thomas, and largely, to the lively talent and interest of director, Miss Bettejo Goodall. wi if oo 'O ' 7 lst row: V.

If you happen to be coming down the tower stairs some Tuesday morning, and hear music coming from the music room, you'l1 know it's Girls' Chorus, working under the direction of Miss Goodall. Girls' Chorus was only organized a year ago, but already has a huge membership, showing the real talent of students for singing and also giving anyone who wishes to work a little opportunity to sing and put on performances. After singing in several assemblies, and also in the Spring Con- cert, Girls' Chorus is becoming quite an accomplished group of per- formers. -4 ' ff-- S625 f-f 1 .,, 1- C is Stage Manager .

Certain mystic rites at Crum Creek last spring initiated the official members of Ye Olde Blackfriars for 1954-55. Traditionally the drama club of the school, Blackfriars, this year joined with the senior play group in presenting the new School Play. Under the guidance of Mr. Hofmann, Blackfriars was certainly a model organiza- tion for getting things done. Committees of every sort, from scenery to make up, chair- maned by prospective members and ad- vised by old members, worked for weeks in advance of the play. Members even dragged themselves out of bed on the Saturday mornings before the play to splash paint on scenery Cand themselvesj and to nail the last minute props together. It can certainly be said that no profes- sionals work any harder than the Black- friars.

The Garnet, always striving for new ways to interest the subscribers, has this year added that action-packed little col- umn, Reb's Ramblings, and a Scribes and Scribblers' section for the Junior High School. Of course, we in school all know the merits of the Gamet, but it seems that it has also been recognized professionally, as it was awarded a prize in the Scholastic Press Association contest for school news- papers. Pete Asch and Gina Tiller, this year's co-editors, as well as their hard working stall, certainly deserve a vote of thanks for putting out this year's fine Garnet. Manu Cabinet executive staff lsf R Pl GRRIK lm Q ew ' This year's yearbook staff, headed by Karen Schiff and faculty advisor, Miss Arm- strong, could be seen busily working every Tuesday afternoon in 209. After long and heated discussions, the staff decided to use a Key Hole theme, to discard advertise- ments, and to increase the pages of candids. Then after many laborious hours of writing, cutting, and pasting, the yearbook finally began to take shape. April came and the yearbook was in the hands of the printers. Of course, the hard work created happy times, and this year's yearbook staff joins in wishing next year's staff a complete suc- cess. lst row: B. Warden, business manager, T.

Every Tuesday, representatives from all parts of the school convene to discuss and to solve the problems which their re- spective homerooms have brought up. After responding to the gavel of president, Mike Hurd, they settle down, seriously, to work out solutions for the current problems. With the aid of Miss Allen and Mr. Yocum, the sponsors, a huge A. A. drive started off the Cabinet year. Soon, improve- ments such as noon study halls, a more efficient table system in the Cafeteria, and parking lot assignments were initiated. Cabinet's work is carried into more de- tail by its eleven committees, featuring such groups as the Publicity, Traffic and Safety, and Assembly Committees. Student and faculty interest, equal rep- resentation, and skillful leadership have all joined in providing a meaningful and demo- cratic government for our school. g 55' R. Cox, G, Smith. M.

The Student Faculty Committee, un- der the leadership of Stuart Bowie and fac- ulty advisor Mrs. Mathews, is in charge of approving all the changes in standards and regulations before they are presented to the faculty or student body. Their main accom- plishments this year have been increasing safety in the halls, and a revision of the parking lot system. Student Faculty ably represents the necessary link between the student body and the teachers. U! ,,,,4 An outsider coming into Swarthmore might be struck immediately by the absence of the gum-chewing and dungarees, which are found in many schools. The credit must go to Standards Board and its chairman, Jane MacAlpine. Standards Board is a com- mittee, sponsored by Cabinet, designed to remind the students of standards of honor, behavior, and dress. Eventually, we hope that even a Stand- ards Board won't be necessary, and that the students will be responsible for upholding their own standards. Sitting: Miss Goodall, B. Harlow, Miss Strouse, S. Bowie, chairman. Standing: T. Shatagin, B. Morrison, J. Hay, Mr. Holm. Mrs. Martin, Mr. Robinson. ',4 Once every few months, four represent- atives of our school go, with apprehension, to compete in the Scott's Hi-Q radio quiz program. On the team are: Gordon Smith, Martha Calhoun, Joan Blanton, Nancy Car- roll, Dick Fellows, and Bob Warden. Even under the handicap of a new system of quizzing, this year's team, under Mr. Hofmann, was certainly well on the way to sharing the successes enjoyed by our teams in previous years. Sitting: B. Gilfillan, B. Shultz. Standing: D. Kletzien, W. Seward, J. Wetlaufer, D. Fel- lows. lst row: M. Calhoun, Mr. Hofmann, N Carroll. 2nd row: D. Fellows, J. Blanton, B Warden. Absent: G. Smith. Swarthmore certainly need never worry about any interference in the amplifying system and sound equipment, for We have a practically professional radio club. The boys not only operate the school equipment, but they also experiment in broadcasting on the school ham station, W3YBN. Admirable success has followed these experiments, as they have contacted points from Florida to the Canadian border. The interest in Radio Club only goes to prove that science can be fun after all. ,v 5 n Each year, fifteen percent of the Senior class is elected the National Honor Society, five percent in the Junior year percent in the Senior year. Character, scholarship, and service are the criteria for these nominations, represent the highest recognition of a student. Dr. as sponsor, and Bob Borer, as president, were readily by the other officers, Martha Calhoun, Nancy Carroll, Randy Malin. When the fire alarm rings in the halls, fifty boys of the fire squad are seen hurry- ing to their posts throughout the school. Under the guidance of Mr. Hofmann, and student head, David Lynch, the squad helped prepare the school in the precautions to be taken in case of fire. Such things as checking fire extinguishers and hoses, clos- ing windows, and holding doors open are all part of their jobs. ...D v'! O o-J 2 T . V if .Q lst row: K. SchiH, K. Jessup. 2nd row: T.

Under the leadership of Co-captains Zen- sen and Dellmuth, it looked like an easy victory for the fired- up Garnet. However, it was not until the fourth quarter that they broke Darby's 14-13 lead and went on to win 19-14. The gps .fl ' -..-1' -9 team continued its season by an overwhelming victory over Nether Providence, 54-0. Coach Robinson's inspired team came through again with another easy win over the Mus- tangs of Media by a 40-6 score. Although the game was tough, they conquered the Cougars of Springfield, 28-7. They defeated Sharon Hill by 34-6. The Garnet, taking its sixth straight, beat Glen Nor in a 26-0 shutout. When Yeadon moved in on November fifth, the team had its work cut out. Losing by a touchdown at the half, the boys went on to pull the contest out of the fire by a score of 20-14. Another week rolled by, and again the boys came out on top, this time slash- ing Prospect Park, 28-0. Lansdowne-Aldan, the traditional rival, came very close to ruining our undefeated season. Only through sheer work and determination did we clinch the first undefeated season since 1949. The best of luck to Pete Kroon and his 1955 squad! ba 'Q ,. . , 5 f: j-A Darby ..........

When a team is confined to six returning varsity girls, Captain Mary Lou Pierce, Mary Mellace, Jeanne Goff, Mar- tha Calhoun, Betsy Brinkmann, and Mary Phillips, as this 1954 team was, it takes hard work, spirit, and good coaching for success. With such a problem at hand, the girls had no alternative but to put a winning team on the field, and they did. Through a strong offense and defense, the girls completed the season with four victories, one loss, and two ties. Jeanne Goff led in the scoring department, while Betsy Brinkmann and Beverly Crowther were tied for second place. Under the leadership of new Co-captains Mary Phillips and Joanne Tay- lor, next year's team should also be a winning one. lst row: T. Dellmuth, L. Keighton, D. Fellows, R. Malin, captain, P. Kroon B.

Under the spirited leadership of Randy Malin, this bas- ketball team successfully proved it had the spark of a cham- pion team. Having lost the majority of their pre-season games, the boys went on to win seven out of their ten league games. At the start of the season the path looked gloomy for Coach Reesels Garnet, but the team progressed in much the same manner as this year's football squad. Through hard work, practice, and the desire to come out on top, they emerged vic- torious. The final league game was only a preview of the Kiwanis tournament, which saw the Garnet capture the Class B. Championship by defeating Nether Providence and Col- lingdale.

The boys started practice in the gym and on the outside courts during the first week of the season. Thereafter all prac- tices, except in bad weather, were held on the Riverview dia- mond. The nucleus of the team was composed of six returning lettermen, headed by Co-captains Mike Hurd and Terry Dell- muth. Some of last year's regulars have had to hustle to win their positions back, because Coach Robinson's boys num- bered around thirty-five and everyone vied for a place on the diamond. Next year's team looks as if it also has a great potential. Q ' , ' an Xt .lv 1.4. -r ? .x i ' C, X .Qld :- Q t H J ls! mir: Miss Allen, ,l. Gotl, P. Foster, M. Phillips. B.

The girls' lacrosse team opened its 1955 season defending a streak of twenty-three undefeated years. Starting the year with real vigor, the team demonstrated its excellence of stick work and team play under Captain Betsy Brinkmann. Lim- ited to six returning varsity players, the majority suited for the attack positions the entire squad had to he revised. But, with Betsy's leadership and Miss Allen's fine coaching, the whole team pitched in and was determined to make this sea- son the twenty-fourth undefeated one.

Early in the spring one may find the track boys out, starting their rigid training schedule, and looking forward to another successful year. Muscles of all sorts are needed for trackg for running, javelin, discus, pole vaulting, and jumping.
