He is the man who has a smile for you when you're low, or a joke, when you're blue. Since we first entered high school there has been a man who has been that to us. To each senior, individually, he has been more than a teacher in a classroom: he has been our friend and com- panion. To Mr. Norman E. Raub, for all the help and understanding he has offered us, the Class of 1947 wishes to dedicate its yearbook.

Si-:,vri-:nr George M. Hein. .I. Arthur Buehler. Darwin S. Wolcott, Pres., Marion D. Myers. THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS in our everyday life that are so natural that we take them for granted and give very little thought as to why they exist and what we would do without them. Throughout our lives, from early youth, we are constantly starting out from a home established by others or , later, by our own efforts. People with no homes we speak of as tramps who start from anywhere and usually go nowhere. The better the home a person starts from, the more certain his journey will be successful, for from a good home we go forth better equipped. Our homes are the most important bases we have: therefore, our prime duty in life is to make and keep it a great storehouse of all those things that are most important to us. In it we should store love, health, happiness, knowledge, and sweet memories: in fact, everything that you will want to find there on your return. You are about to start out on a journey in life for which you will want and need much that you have stored. Look over what you have. Some things you will find may have lost much of their value, though they seemed important when you stored them. Other things will have increased in value and will be very necessary on your journey. My farwell wish is that you will find ample stores in your home from which to draw for your travels, leaving much for the dear ones who remain, and that you have a happy and successful journey. Darwin S. Wolcott, President uperintendents Message is Q,f To the Class of '47: As you came into the High School you saw our Nation enter a World War. You saw and helped your school make its many adjustments to war-time conditions. You saw your country help win that war, and as you leave, you see it trying to establish a just and lasting peace. We are sorry that many of your educational activities had to be modified and curtailed. You adjusted yourselves to War- time conditions willingly and well, and We have confidence that you will be able to adjust yourselves to a rapidly changing society. You carry with you our sincere best wishes for a full life and just as sincere an invitation to call upon your school when it can be of help to you. Sincerely, WARREN H. COCKLIN Superintendent Principals Message Class of 1947: Congratulations on your graduation from Upper Merion High School. Best wishes for your happiness and success in your life after school. Life and matters in general, locally, nationally, and inter- nationally, seem to be rather complicated. People are confused, and wonder what this Atomic Age has in store for them. Many are fearful and this state of mind changes the pattern of their lives -f some for the good, others for the bad. You, as young people going out to make your mark in jobs, schools, and marriage, will be called upon to make many important decisions that will affect your future lives. I personally am optomistic about the future of our young people. I have not lost faith, and I definitely feel that we might all look back and remember those experiences, yes, even the mis- takes that we have made, and use the lessons we have learned to build our lives into the strongest possible to meet the uncertain contingencies that life has in store for us.

The Dental Clinic is established and reaching out to meet the dental health needs of students of all ages in our schools. Dr, Bahler has given us much of his time and has worked faithfully and untiringly for the good of our students. It is because of this, that such progress has been attained. Dr, Falcone has, for another year, put the medical work in our schools on an upward treid. The work of the school doctor sometimes goes unnoticed: this should not be true. We need his constant guidance and attention to keep our students in good health, so that they may have the best oppor- tunity of securing the most from the classroom. Dr. Falcone has made every effort to make this pcssihle. FREDERICK W. BAIILER D.D.S. BENJAMIN L. FALCONE, MD. MARGA11u'r E. MCCLURE. RN, Sciiooi.

For six years he has been an integral part of the U. M. band. During that time H tooted away in the role of solo trumpeter, and each and every march had a little of that Alderfer swing. H was a whiz also on the basketball court, and during his junior year received his letter. A musician, a sportsman, and last but not least, Henry the actor. ln the senior play, Henry displayed hidden dramatic talents as he took the character role of Sherwin Parker. ln addition he is known as the smooth dresser of Upper Merion. H has made excellent use of his valuable assets, and will certainly build a successful career around one of them. FRANK ASHTON President 4: Basketball Manager 4: Football Manager 4.

As a hobby, Donald enjoyed collecting theatre stubs and programs. Responsibility and dependa- bility are his outstanding qualities and characteristics. As proof of this, he was elected manager of the basketball team last year. He helped with prom and other dance decora- tions and also ran the movie projector. Modeling with Maggie in the Fashion Show last year, he contributed a touch of humor. HELEN BARON Dancing l: Chorus 1, 2: Basketball 2, 3, 4: Prom Committees 1, 2, 3, 4: Fashion Show 3. Senior Play 4.

Ever since her sophomore year, Helen has been seen on the basketball court where she dis- played her fine athletic abilities very capably. Bein inclined dramatically, Helen was commended for her excellent por- trayal of the young bride-to-be in the senior play. These aren't all of her many talents as she was a most efficient secretary for Mr. Raub. In her spare time, Helen loves to dance any kind of jig.

When 'ABoundsie first came to Upper Merion in 1945 from Dover, Delaware, we thought she was a quiet little lady, but as days passed she proved herself to be one of the top fun- makers. Betty's favorite hobby, who is in the Navy, is the main topic of her conversations. Her destiny is foretold by the shining stone of her left hand. She proved herself quite an actress in the senior play. Although Boundsie claims that she will be glad to graduate, we all know that her heart is still in the chorus, the Pioneer staff, the rifle club, and school in general. ' CATHERINE BEATTY Katie, one of our Junior Varsity Basketball stars is known for her genial and pleasing personality She is always full of fun.

Frank and friendly are the words that describe Joyce Campbell. Noted for her stability of character, Joyce was elected vice president of the Student Association. Operat- ing in that capacity, she was usually found counting the Associations funds in Room 208. However, Joyce's abilities also lie in the field of athletics. Basketball and hockey are her favorite sports. Of all the things Joyce Campbell is noted for, it is her frank outspoken manner that makes her a well-liked companion of the senior girls. Her timely wit, too, is contagious as the girls and fellows know. This knack will be a grand asset in consoling all the patients she expects to have in her nursing career.

Her long list of activities leaves no doubt as to her scholastic ability, but her presence on the honor roll for six consecu- tive years allays our doubts. Her flair for writing was put to use in her junior year as Literary Editor of the Grapevine. and in her senior year is Pioneer Association Editor. Execu- tive positions are second ,nature to Ginny - - she was presi- dent of the Honor Society and treasurer of the Dramatic Club in her final year.

When participating in different activities, her heart was always in her work, As a result, she was noted for her He quiet disposition was always tinted with a lot of fun. cooperation and reliability. Mrs. Miller will certainly miss Molly in the office practice class where she did much of the work for the alumni association. PETER D'ANGELI Pete is that easy going guy who is never without words. An opinion one way or the other has always been expressed by Pete on every subject, but as far as losing sleep over school work - - well Pete didn't. Ever-happy, l'Pete was known and liked by every student during his school life. That his artistic talents aren't to be overlooked is a rash understatement.

His happy-go-lucky smile and attitude made him one of our best liked seniors. Another of Andy's attributes was his ability on the golf team. There he played a constant game and could always be depended on to bring home good scores. One of Mr. Raub's prodi- gies is our Andy. His carefree air will be long remembered by all his schoolmates.

Jay, of course, doesn't mind being the center of attention as long as someone is enjoying his antics. Naturally, he enjoys himself wherever he goes, since he has a humorous nature. However, the serious Jay underv- neath all the comic mischief is one who is understanding and kind, Always ready to stick by his friends, Jay makes a good companion. His humor should carry him through many a predicament, but the loyal serious side of his nature will serve as his outstanding asset.

In hockey, Betty did an excellent job at the position of left inner on the forward line. Cn the basketball court, Betty was a great support to the team, as she played substitute forward. To further her activity, she was a shining star in our flashy group of cheerleaders. As a member of the band, Betty strutted her stuff. while twirling her baton. To this vivacious lassie, graduation will mean the loss of a great many fun loving times. With her warm attitude, she will makes things brighter as she steps into the world's spotlight.

With Earl Frames it was the question of whether to be a sports addict. or an Honor Roll student. His answer - - quite simple, be both. In his junior year Earl began his sports career in the position of guard on the high school eleven . Inspired by his success on the gridiron, Earl went out for basketball and made the Jay V's first five . In his senior year, Earl achieved his other goal, that of being an Honor Roll student. Still in an athletic frame of mind, Earl not only made first string right end but kept high marks. In addition to being on the Honor Roll every report. Earl earned several typing pins. As a career, Earl plans to follow his com- mercial training.

However, her interpretations of Lily in the senior play proved to be her most popularly liked activity. As Lily Nancy engaged in all the queer antics and mischievous pranks that characterized her in real life. An avid baseball fan, Nancy's chief interest in spring centers upon that sport. Nancy, who hopes to enter nurs- ing, should have little to hinder her, for she is one of the fortunate few who are gifted with a magnetic personality. HELEN HELENIAK Hockey 3, 4: Basketball 4: Grapevine 3: Chorus 1, 2. Pioneer 4: Prom Com- mittee 3: Senior Play Committee 4. Socko - - another hockey goal: swish - - another basket. Yes, Heleniak's at it again. You simply can't keep Helen away from sports. Being one of the best fun makers in the senior class, Helen can't keep a straight face, even when she's being scolded, which is very seldom. Her love for typing class is heartbreaking and she simply craves for shorthand homework. However, Helen takes her school life with a grain of salt. Helen Ziemack and Blanche Kaczmar are two-thirds of the big three: the other, of course, is Helen. Helen is a friend of everyone in school, and should continue to make friends all through life. JOSEPH HURST Rifge gllub l: First Aid l: Prom Committee 3: Play Cast 4: Dance Committees l. , , 4. A prankster with a mania for teasing the girls, Joe Hurst found much in his senior year to keep the talk and laughter coming. He was always the one to insert a humorous re- mark during class. This fact made him pleasing to his class mates. However, Joe, beneath the humor and light gay banter he practices, is a fellow who can be depended upon to do a job well once he has his enthusiasm in it. He exemplified this when he amazed everyone with his natural easy way of portraying the character of Father in the senior play. At the moment Joe has no definite ambition. but whatever he does find to do in the future, his enthusiasm will carry him through. BLANCHE KACZMAR Chorus l, 2. Dancing Club lg Dance Committees l, 2, 3: Prom Committee 3: Grapevine 35 Pioneer 4, Senior Play Committee -4. Blondie Kaczmar can be considered one of the most quiet and meticulous girls in the senior class. However, she and her friends, Helen Heleniak and Helen Ziemak, were any- thing but quiet when they became involved in a lengthy humorous story. No one can forget Blondie's giggle at these sessions . Blanche also has an avid interest in dancing, a pastime in which she excels. In addition to these, Blondie contributed to the school publications by being a reliable typist. Since her ambitions lie in the field of busi- ness, she is sure to succeed for she has had extensive practice in that field. STANLEY KAMINSKI Stanley is one of those fellows Who could if he would but he won't . Fats , as he is otherwise known, just wants to live and enjoy life to the fullest. With his nonchalant atti- tude he has a way with the girls. However, beneath all of this. Stanley seems to have a knack for radio and mathe- matics. Even though he has never participated on our athletic teams, Stanley has shown versatility on the basket- ball court during gym classes. When he leaves school, Fats plans to choose the army as his career. JOSEPH KELLY Senior Play 3: Junior Varsity Basketball 2. Murph , our sharp-looking boy from King Manor, returned to school in the latter part of February, this year, to com' plete his work so that he might become a graduate of Upper Merion High School. In August of 1945, Joe was inducted into the U. S. Army: he spent twenty months in the service, in the E. T. O. We, the class of 1947, are happy to have this G. l. Joe in our class.

Perhaps it is true that good things come in small packages because Fanny was one of the small but mighty ones of our class.. Always helpful, Fanny proved herself a capable manager of the hockey team. This little package proved to be a hard-working member of the school library, too. This in addition to her excellent contributions as a senior representative for the Grapevine and News Editor of the Pioneer, made Fanny quite well known for her writing ability. Being reliable, she was often selected to help on many committees, among which was the Curriculum Corn- mittee. In the meetings, Fanny's opinions and contributions were always called for and respected. After graduation, Fanny is very interested in merchandising as a career.

She was captain of the cheerleaders and deserves credit for her good judgment and sportsmanship. In the field of sports, she held varsity positions in both hockey and basketball. ln music El played in our school band for six years and was chosen to play in the district band for two consecutive years. El was also active in the school chorus. After graduation she wishes to enter the nursing profession. Her pep, vivacity and character should make Eleanor suc- cessful in her chosen profession.

Popularly known as 'jReverend , Elbert is a quiet lad who believes in performing his tasks to the utmost of his ability. Consequently, Elbert was respected by faculty members as well as fellow students. During his junior year, Elbert displayed one of his many talents as he capably filled the position of tackle on the high school eleven . Still in an athletic frame of mind, Elbert went out for basketball and made the Jay V's first string. Because of an injury during his senior year, Elbert was forced to the sidelines as far as actual participation of athletics was concerned. Elbert then continued to get high marks and devoted more time to his favorite subjects, Spanish and Chem. As a career Elbert hopes to enter the field of chemistry. CAROLINE LEWIS Dancing Club 3: Chorus 1. 3: Senior Play 4: Pioneer 4: Grapevine 3: Dance Committees l, 3. Prom Committee 3. Portraying the maid. Essie. in the Senior Play, Caroline caused many hilarious chuckles over her comical actions and comments. ln true life, she is friendly though quiet. She has a wonderful sense of humor and a vivacious personality. Quiet, dependable and cooperative, she participated in many class activities, Her favorite pastime is dancing, perhaps because of her membership in the dancing club last year. Another pastime is eating - - particularly potato chips, ice cream and candy. Her cheery laugh will always linger in our ears. VIRGINIA LOUGHIN Chorus 2, 3. 4: May Day 3: Dance Committee 2: Hockey 3: Basketball 3, 4: Prom Committee 3. Ginny is the Lauren Bacall of Upper Merion. Her bewitch- ing eyes and sweet smile have won her many friends. Being one of our athletic minded girls, Ginny made quite a debut on the hockey field and the basketball court. One of her favorite hobbies is racing around the countryside with the gang from Norristown. Ginny, though guiet, has a personality that clicks with everyone - - particularly with members of the opposite sex. Her winning ways will be a boon to her in any career she undertakes. Committee 4.

Laura, one of the peppy cheerleaders, was a fervent participator in all of the girls' sports. In hockey, she was always ready to kick the ball out of the goal cage, and in basketball her careful guarding prevented many a goal from being made by the opposite team. However. Laura is best known by her classmates for her congeniality and lighthearted humor. Displaying that humor in the Declamation program, she caused much laughter and en- joyment. Among Laura's many fine traits are her fineness of character and sympathetic nature. These. most of all, should insure her many friends and a happy life. FRANK MARSHALL ln September we welcomed a new member to our senior class. Frank Marshall, who left Norristown to come to Upper Merion, quickly became a part of our class. Frank and his bosom companion, Joe Hurst, were a common sight tinkering with Frank's limousine . School work was one of the minor things in Frank's life. This will be evident when the vacancy in Room 207 is noticed next year during seventh period. Although Franks stay here was a short one, we have known him long enough to realize that he will succeed in anything that he undertakes to do. WILLIAM McFADDEN Football l, 2. 3, 4.

However, Bill has his serious side. Having been an important member of the football team for four years, and the stalwart center fielder for the baseball team for two years, Bill proved to take his sports chores in stride. Mac was a member of the Pioneer staff. Although Bill never studied to excess, he took school for what he could get out of it. and seems to have done all right. A subtle sense of humor and a friendly smile are assets that helped life. EUGENE MCHALE Baseball 45 Football 4: Class President 1, 3, 4: Basketball 3: Football Manager 2 3 Prom Committee 3. 'AMac is the power house of the senior class, Mity-Mouse in person. Mac was class president in his junior year and one of the senior leaders this year. He was a new addition to the football team and he's also an active member of the Varsity Club. Although Mac's slow and easy attitude is one of his chief characteristics, he has many friends and a lot of ambition. He is also noted for his smooth dancing and card playing fespecially at partiesi.

Library Club 3: Basketball Timer 3, 4. I can't hear a thing without my glasses! Who else but Maggie would say a thing like that? We'll never forget that gal in the senior play when she played the role of Nana , the Hhep-cat grandmother. Acting in the play and in two Declamation programs must have made a favor- able impression on Maggie, for she hopes to become a Shakespearean actress. An excellent swimmer, she prac- tically lives at the Colonial Village swimming pool during the summer vacations. Very seldom is Maggie seen with- out her bosom companion, Irish Shea, for the two are inseparable both in school and out. During our senior year. Maggie did a fine job as Editor-in-Chief of the Pioneer, and served as student announcer for the chorus when they pre-- sented their program over radio station WIBG. ADAM PALASZEWSKI This tall rugged young man is considered a comic by his classmates. Dimples as he is teasingly called by the girls, is one ol the snappiest dressers in the senior class. Quaint and abrupt remarks made by Adam during class periods usually promoted laughter. Although Adam is hardly ever to be taken seriously, he is a congenial, cooperative com- panion as is exemplified by his association with Stan Kaminski and Ed Rotay. Adam's ambition lies primarily in some branch of the armed forces. There. he should put his entertaining manner to good use. PAUL PARAVATY Library l, 2: Band 3: Basketball 3. Dance Band 4: News Paper 2, 3: Pioneer 4. Paul is that little man called 'ABrains . Though a diligent student in all his subjects, Paul excelled in math. When- ever a problem arose that Brains could not solve, the academic class classified the problem as a misprint. Because of this, he was nicknamed Brains , Paul's next best sub- ject, chemistry, was one in which he could putter around with chemicals as well as use his mathematical ability. Pauls poem was awarded a Memorial Poetry Certificate. He participated in J. V. basketball in his junior year and played the drums in the band. Though not sure of his plans for the future, Paul hopes to enter the Drexel Institute of Technology to study engineering. EDWARD W.

Once the bashful boy of our class, Rexie surprised us all in our senior year by becoming very friendly with the fair sex. Still shy at times, he astonished us with his ability in writing poetry. Eddie's ability lies not only in the field of literature, but also on the football field. He did a com- mendable job as fullback, and took upon his broad shoulders the responsibilities of kicking when called upon to do so. We all found that even though he teases unmercifully, it's impossible to dislike him or even to be angry with him. A very likeable fellow, indeed, he'll make good whether it be in an executive position or merely helping the little woman with the dishes. MARGARET SCHAFFER Intramural Sports 4 Prom Committee 3 Senior Play Publicity Committee, Hockey 4 Band 4 Dancing Club 2 Pioneer 4' Chorus l. EDWARD ROTAY Basketball 3: Dance Club 1, 2. Edward, or Repo has a noticeable roguish smile and non- chalant attitude which are well known throughout the school. His mischievous nature places him first in one scrape and then another. It isn't hard to tell where Ropo's main interests lie for he seems to be quite a ladies man. Ed- ward seems to fit well on the basketball court even though he never participated in interscholastic competition. Edward has no definite plans for the future but he probably will enter a branch of the armed services. Everyone seems to admire Maggie's artistic talent. Even the judges of the Scholastic Art Contest recognized her abilities when she submitted a unique textile design. She received a much deserved merit award for her efforts. Mar- garet's interests lie in almost any field of art, especially painting and drawing in which she excels. However, she has also been an invaluable aide in various projects spon- sored by the class. Programs, posters and announcements always turned out right under Maggie's careful hand, but Maggie will always be remembered for her quiet and kindly ways, These attributes in addition to her fine character and definte talent should lead Maggie to a bright future, DOROTHY SMITH Chorus l, 2, 3, 4: Library l, 2, 3, 4g Hockey 2: Basketball 2, 3: Home Room Secretary 2: Panel Secretary l, 4: Girls' Shop lg Prom Committee 3: Dance Committees l, 2, 3, 4, Dramatic Club 4, Pioneer Staff 4: Grapevine 2. Gne of the most active girls in the school is none other than our own Dot Smith. As proof of this, she was manager of both our hockey and basketball teams last year. Last year, it was found that she was one of the pupils who appeared on the honor roll since its formation. Excelling in typing, Dorothy was on the newspaper staff and has done many important papers for the Administration. This term, she was our very competent panel secretary.

At any time she could be found arguing with Bill McFadden over the pros and cons of the four horsemen. As she was a devout supporter of Notre Dame so she was of Upper Merion. Helen participated in all sports and was one of the hottest sparkplugs on our hockey team. Helen's a bug on chemistry, will be remembered as the Madame Curie of of the Class of '47. Her experiments were the bane of Mrs. Fries' existence. Helen intends to take up chemistry as a career. STANLEY STEHMAN lg First Aid Club 1: Senior Play Cast 4: Football I. Stanley's fine thespian ability was displayed while portraying blustering, pompous Mr. Parker in the senior play. His performance will be long remembered especially by the senior class. Last year, Stan's height proved a great asset in hanging the prom decorations, However, his nit-wit antics throughout school made him popular with his classmates. His humorous expressions and bland mien were always the result of a timely anecdote. A steady and. dependable work- er, Stan commenced working at James Lees and Sons in Bridgeport while attending school. Stanley's character and abilities will lead him to a Hne future after graduation.

Although Ronnie is one of the more carefree members of our class, her scholastic standing has never shown any effect from her activities. One of her pet hobbies is dancing, and she'd dance from morning 'till night if that were pos- sible. Anything from a fast jitterbug to the slowest waltz suits Rona fine. She was an enthusiastic participant in hockey and basketball during both her junior and senior years, and made a fine showing at all the games. Rona was a good example of the excellent sportsmanship produced in UM., and we all found out in practice that she wields a mean hockey stick with the experience of a professional. Ronnie has a hearty laugh and a keen sense of humor which will assure her more than her share of friends. MARJORIE HUNT VAN RODEN Freshman Day l.

Nothing can be said without one of the Van Rodens making a witty come- back, which is all the more reason why they are so well-liked. Margie is interested in journalism: however, she could very easily make a career of being a photographers model, for her pretty blonde hair and expressive blue eyes are two of her outstanding assets.

A sparkling sense of humor, which was used to advantage in the senior play is another. Few will ever forget the mischievious pranks Penelope played on others as she displayed her ability cn the stage. Helen also excelled in typing and did many important papers for some of our busiest teachers and students. Because Helen is one of those rare examples of good fun, she is able to get along with anyone. With those amiable traits, we're sure that Helen will be a success in her role as a secretary.

His athletic build and that shy Zugay smile made many a heart flutter and to no avail, for Stan hates women. Zugay's favorite subject is history which does not appear to be an asset in his future role of the 'Aeligible bachelor . enioi fClass THE SENIOR CLASS can truthfully say that their last year at Upper Merion has been the most happy and eventful of their high school career. Realizing that this was their last year, the Seniors made their Alma Mater proud of them. Their scholastic ability was evidenced by the high percentage of Seniors on the honor roll. Socially, they sponsored the Senior Play and Dance which WHS El great SUCCESS. Members of the class have participated in sports and all school activities. Individuals of the class have held executive positions in many of the school's governing organizations. In saying farewell, the Seniors hope that their successors, the Class of '48, will enjoy the privileges and pleasures shared throughout our school lives together. Junior Class ANOTHER YEAR at Upper Merion High School and our .lunior Class will join the honorable ranks of the Alumni. The Juniors have been very successful this past school year both in Scholastic and athletic activities. A large percentage of the Junior Class participated in football, basketball hockey, and many junior boys have donned the gray uniforms of the baseball team. Some ofthe junior girls are members of the Senior Chorus, which had a very successful school year. Among their experiences was a trip to Station WIBG where they presented a half-hour program.

However,4 public recognition of their performance was theresult of the program at the Valley Forge Chapel. The latter in addition to their radio program presented over WIBG, were the highlights of the choral engagements. The Spring Concert in April was the last complete choral service. Several members, however, were selected from the group to sing in the Annual Music Festival at Philadelphia. This has been a successful and eventful season for the chorus, With the sort of recognition that it is' now gaining, the chorus is destined to be a highly respected musical organization in our school. all THE SCHOOL YEAR of 1946-47 marked a very successful year in the history of the Upper Merion High School Band. Throughout the fall, the band appeared at all the home football games, and accompanied the team to Spring City, Conshohocken and Boothwyn. The band with many honors already bestowed upon them, was chosen as the ofHcial band for the Homecoming Celebration held in Spring City prior to the start of the Spring Cityfllpper Merion game. A great deal of the credit for the splendid appearance of the band goes to Drum Major Betty Syester, Assistant Drum Major Doris Watters, and to Mr. Paul Zuck for his work with the fine line of twirlers. Immediately after the close of football season the band prepared a program to be rendered at the Senior Play. 1946 was ushered out with a joint appearance of the band and choruses at the Annual Christmas program. The first appearance of the band in 1947 was at the Junior Class Assembly Program. On February 18, the band and chorus made a trip to Philadelphia where they participated in a half-hour broadcast. Since broadcasting a band pro- gram was a novel experience the trip was enjoyed by every member. At the Annual Spring Concert, we were fortunate to have Mrl Paul Zuck, who started the band fourteen years ago, conduct the band in one number and an encore. After the Spring Concert the band began to prepare for its trip to Hanover. None of the bandsmen will be able to forget the thrill of parading in the A'Parade of the Bands . The band also participated in the commencement festivities which brought to a close an exceedingly busy year. Senior Plav THE CLASS OF 1947 presented their Senior Play Every Family Has One , on November 22, l946. Every Family Has Une is the story of a typical American family, the Reardons. Laura and Reginald Reardon, their three children, Marcia, Pene- lope, and Warry, and Nana become entangled with the Parkers of New York. The result is a mild calamity. Thanks to Nana and a distant cousin Lily, the Parkers are sent back to New York and Marcia is reunited with Todd Galla- way, the boy she really loves, Betty Bounds and Joe Hurst were quite-natural in their respective roles of scatter brained Laura and easy-goning Reginald. Helen Ziemak gave a vefy good performance as the little demon Penelope. Her older stage sister, Marcia, was portrayed by our lovely Helen Baron. The role of Warry, the 'Junior Shakespeare , was perfect for Jack Van Roden, who is one of our talented writers. Probably the best remembered of the family was Nana, better known to us as Margaret Meister. Maggie's performance revealed one of her greatest talents. As Lily, the crazy cousin, Nancy Harbaugh couldn't have been better had she been Lily herself. Two more convincing performers were Janet Wood- ring and Stanley Stehmen in the roles of Mr. and Mrs. Parker of New York. Henry Alderfer will not be forgotten as the snobbish Sherwin Parker who lost Marcia to our hero Todd Callaway, William O'Hara. Bill made the most of a brief role. Last but not least was the woe-begone maid, Essie, Caroline Lewis. Caroline with her dry wit certainly played the part to perfection, The Seniors wish to thank Mrs. Wolfskill for the valuable coaching and time she spent with the play cast.

WILLIAM O'HARA The ttudent Panel Junnn Panel ennn THE STUDENT PANEL is a democratic organization which enables the students to shoulder responsibilities. Through this group the student organizes his own government, and works through it whenever problems concerning the student body are to be solved. The Panel has been very industrious this year and has accomplished much in the way of improvements in the school. One of the main duties of the group was the revision of the panel constitution. Under this plan a vice-president will be elected, yearly, but there will be no presidential election. Vice-president will observe the practices of the president and will move in to place of leadership after having conducted two joint panel assemblies in the latter part of his junior yar. Another of the vital duties of the Panel was taking the responsibility of sponsoring the Student Association. When the newly formed constitution of the association was drawn up it was approved by the panel and ratified by the student body. Through the efforts of the members of the Panel an Activity program was set up. This pro- gram consisted of a schedule of Intra-Mural competition among the homerooms of the Senior High School. To gain more knowledge of the practice of other schools and to receive suggestions for the improvement of our school, representatives were sent to conventions held at Lansdowne. Bridgeport, Radnor, and Downingtown. These facts prove that the Student Panel off Upper Merioii is doing a splendid job for the continuation of a democratic form of government which the students of Upper Merion want, and is doing a job of which every Merionite is proud. Panel Pioneer taii FOR THE FIRST TIME in the history of Upper Merion,the Pioneer subscriptions were sold before the making of the publication. This meant that the small group laboring over the publication had a terrific obligation to meet. Their yearbook had been sold to Upper Merion Students under the auspices of the Student Association. However, the group worked with assiduity until the writing, copying, typing and printing were done. The staff members, under the guidance of their literary adviser, Mrs. Ronan, and Mr. Hensinger, business adviser, deserve much of the credit for this publication.

Thus the Grapevine was enjoyed by almost all of the Upper Merion Students. Monthly columns, senior contributions, and cartoons, which were printed in the school paper for the first time this year, added to the papers appeal. However, it was diligent and industrious editors and their staff members who made the Grapevine a school publication cf which we are proud.

RONAN- MISS BASSETT National Honor ooiotv BEING A MEMBER of the National Honor Society is the highest honor Upper Merion High School can offer to any of its students. The necessary qualifications are those of character, service, lead- ership, and scholarship. Last year the executive council, composed of Frances Osca- pinski, Virginia Capoferri, William Wills, and Stanley Mantell, elected several juniors on the basis of the required qualities. Elected were Laura Smith, Jean Grace, Thelma Bailey, and Beatrice Shore of the senior class: and Dorothy Smith, Patricia Douglass, and Virginia Capoferri of the junior class. This year, the society chose some Working members who Were later to be inducted as regular members of the organization. Mr. Earl Fries is faculty sponsor. Ma Day Junior SPRI1-:-G came to Upper Merion in it's traditional May Day festival in 1946. Frances Oscapinski was crowned Queen of the May in one of the most colorful spectacles ever presented at Upper Merion. Dances by the grades were done in honor cf the QueenpGifts Symbolizing Life, Song, Knowledge, and the World were presented to the Queen and her court. The culmination of the day's celebration was, of course, the crowning of the queen by Betty Sweeney, May Queen of 1945. Members of the court were Dorothy Hilbert, Mildred Malloy, Thelma Bailey, and Beatrice Shore. Stella lvans was Maid of Honor. The festival was attended by more than Hve hundred pupils and friends who lined the hill overlooking the pageant. A tea and reception followed the celebration. Prom LAST YEAR was the first time that a strictly formal prom was given at Upper Merion, and the seniors are proud to say that they were sponsors of this dance. The gym was decorated to represent a pavillion with white pillars and panels. At the east end in a crepepaper arch, dawn was depicted, and at the west end, also in crepepaper, was the setting sun. ' Upon entering the dance floor at the west end there was a receiving line. The line consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Strine, Mr. and Mrs. Young, and Mr. and Mrs. Santoro. Mr. and Mrs. Mclrlale were also guests. It is known that everyone thoroughly enjoyed the prom and the refreshments that accompanied it. Music was furnished by Jimmy Ray's orchestra. Lillian Green was the vocalist. i.5'.. ,-'-A'Q'l W'X?Ae . -, fa ,:, f. - J: Q Q ' 4 ? 5 A 's,K S 'X Q , -c if X. no , .,, Y QW 1 5,5 ,B xg V 4 2 X X - , A - .'-,m 2 M , 1 f ' , Mak-H 5 f f Q, -,,-- .

Always faithful, the cheerleaders were present at every football game .... snow, rain. or shine. Who can forget how they always managed to give a pep talk to the players, before and after the games! Perhaps some of the team's success belongs to these cheerful rah-rahs . These girls never let their fellows down at any time. To the junior high cheerleaders, the cheerleaders of the future, we offer our support and thanks. llramat ic Club l HREADY? CURTAIN GOING uplvv That is a familiar sound to members of the Dramatic Club. This year, after a lapse cf several years, a Dramatic Club was again formed in Upper Merion. This active organization is under the sponsorship of Mrs. Wolfsli:ill. Members represent all senior high grades. Any person participating in a dramatic program automatically becomes a member. The Junior Play, A'Deep in the Heart of Texas : the Sophomore Play, Aunt Adeline's I-leir g and the reading of Contest Poems: the Decla- mation Program all sponsored by the Senior High Dramatic Club.

V IRGINIA CAPOFERRI tudent Association OUR STUDENT Assoc1Ar1oN, an organization controlled by a student treasurer from each home room and a panel of officers elected from the Senior High School, is the first of its kind in the suburban area. The duties of each treasurer are to collect the dues for the organization from his homeroom, punch the Student Association tickets, and help in the governing of the organization. The purpose of the Association is to give all Spartans an opportunity to enjoy all school activities at the smallest expense to each individual. This enabled more students to attend extre curricular activities and thus promoted greater school spirit. This non-profit organization was more successful than anticipated. Because of the co-operation of Mr. Kern, the associations sponsor, the student treasurers, and the student body, Upper Merion has an association of which it can be proud. The officers of the Student Association are: President, Donald Auch: Vice President, .loyce Campbell: Secretary, Margaret Meister. Treasurcrs: Senior. Betty Syester: Juniors, Loretta Dittmar: Sophomores, Paul McKernan and Clifford Rowden: Freshmen, Susan Bader and Dorothy Andersen: Eighth Grade, Howard Teaford and Alice Buehlerg Seventh Grade, John Campbell and Bonnie McGhee. Travel Club Salesmanship Club Sparta emor Football mat- K .gb THE GRAND OPENING of the 1946 football season took place at Camp Delmont. Thirty fellows spent one week of solid football work. Coach John Yohe taught them what hard football was. This week was the prelude to a season with several victories. As the 1946-47 season got under way the Upper Merion Gridmen found themselves facing a highly favored Pottstown Eleven. Playing their first game of the season under the lights, the Spartans were slow starting. In the dying minutes of the final period, lVlcKernan threw a pass to Bill McFadden for the Spartans first score of the year. Ed Rex converted, making the final score 13-7. ' The second game of the year found the Spartans facing a heavier and more experienced team, in Malvern Prep. Both teams fought a sea-saw battle with the exception of two plays: one a long pass. the other, a beautiful cutback. Both were good for touchdowns. Following the Malvern Prep game the team traveled to Spring City to meet one of the highest scoring teams in the district. Spring City continued their high scoring, beating Upper Merion 25-O. Upper Merion met an undefeated Berwyn eleven and bowed 14-O. Despite this loss, every- one was well pleased with the brilliant play of our line, which was led by Captain John McFadden. Starting the second half of the schedule Upper Merion traveled to Conshohocken, where they lost 26-O. Before a record crowd, the Spartans fought a heavily favored Bridgeport team. Starting from the opening kickoff Upper Merion played inspired ball, and left the field victorious at the end of the game, winning with the score 14-0. This was the Hrst victory over Bridgeport in three years, and also the first victory of the year. Having restored their spirit they gained themselves in the Bridgeport game, U. M. played Schwenksville the following week and won by the score of 42-.0 Playing their last game at Boothwyn, Upper Merion finished its season with another victory. The score was 25-6. Junior Football L :fo -KJ k ' L, 'V EVEN THOUGH they were inexperienced, the Junior High Football team showed good quality and training on the gridiron this season. As a result of their efforts, the team was victorious in two of the six encounters with one game ending in a tie. Led and coached by Mr. Norman Raub, the scrappy fellows proved to their opponents that the old Upper Merion light was not to be denied. In the future the Junior High Spartans are sure to become a championship team. Schedule and Scores U. M.

After graduation there will be twelve positions open for next season, With the help of the ten girls who return next season, we know the future team will be as successful as this year's.

Mr. Yohe deserves credit for turning a befucldled team into a cooperating unit with plenty of zip. Although the boys were small they made up for this with plenty of spirit, thereby turning losing games into winning ones. There are many experienced players on the basketball squad and all of them are returning for one or more seasons. These boys, plus the crack Junior Varsity team comming up, next year should provide the opposition with many a headache. Boys earning letters were C. Wentzel, K. Davis, E. Rycklak, B. Wills, P.

Girls' Basketball FINE TEAM WORK AND SPORTSMANSHIP characterized the '46-'47 girls' basket- ball season. The season was not as successful in terms of wins or losses, as it was in the fact that Upper Mernon has an up and coming team that can work together as one unit. Just as in hockey, every girl was given an opportunity to captain a game. When the team plays next year there will be many new faces, for thirteen seniors were members of the team. The Jay V's played very spirited games all season and won six out of nine games. The Seniors wish the team of '47-'48 the very best of luck and hope their team work and willingness will gain them a name in Girls' Basketball at Upper Merion. Varsity Baseball t b A fi' in A'.ff.' K THE SPARTAN BASEBALL SQUAD returned this year reinforced with lettermen. During the previous baseball campaign the Merionites produced a well de- veloped and experienced team. With this array of experience, the Spartans hope to capture the Suburban Six Conference title which they were so close to winning last year. The enthusiasm and spirit evidenced by the boys and coach, Mr. Santoro, are veritable signs of a victorious season.

For the past three years Upper Merion has had a very successful golf team. Last year our team was the winner of the Northern Section of the Philadelphia Suburban Golf League. This year the team was comprised of several veterans from last year s vic torious group, and they most certainly fulfilled their expectations a am this year. Games played this spring were with Pottstown, Lower Merion, erwyn Haverford, and Abington. All home games were played at the Gulph Mills Golf Course. Members of the '47 team were Florentine Fraschetta, Charles Anselm Charles Toth, Richard Guidas, Clifford Rowden, George Matzik, and Andrew Dudas. Mr. Raub was coach. Q' Q Elivaturrn Class Will WE, THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1947 being of questionable mind and soundbody do hereby proclaim this document to be our last will and testament. We, who now bequeath our numerous worldly traits, declare these Juniors and Sophomores to be the lucky bene- factors. These same benefactors are given full power to keep, utilize, or plan in any suitable manner to dispose of the whole or part of their inheritance: Jack Van Roden reluctantly leaves his size 12 ft. to John Mullen. In Jack's own words, John, you have the situation well in foot. Our little glamour gal, Ginny Loughin, leaves her Lauren Bacall hair do to that cute blonde, Eleanor Chanko. Ginny realizes now that she must face the world with two eyes. Donald Auch and Laura Malloy, who have recently celebrated their wooden anniversary l both blockheadsl, will their coziness, to guess who??? They hope that Joyce and Joe will celebrate many anniversaries too. Joyce Campbell leaves a warning, Hand all English papers in on time! Joyce has been involved in the aforementioned and thinks it only right to warn all of you nice people. To John Romano, Paul Paravaty wills his 'Abrains . Paul has made good use of them all during his notorious school career, and he hopes Mr. Romano will do the same. Helen Ziemak bequeaths her chewing gum ability to Esther Frames who we are sure doesn't really need it, but she surely can give these teachers plenty of trouble. To Robert Anselm, Peter DeAngeli wills his brilliance in Biology and his congenial and eternal friendship with Mr. Fries. Patsy Douglass wills to anyone who can afford a bottle of per- oxide those beautiful blonde curls that have been such an asset to her all through her school life. To Charles Anselm, Eggs Dudas leaves his ability with the golf club. You know Eggs was on Mr. Raub's team, the one that took the suburban two title. Frank Ashton leaves his ability to assume leadership and respon- sibility to the new panel president, Joe Mclntyre, and to all of the presidents of the future. A bequest of beautiful eyes goes to Dorothy Getsy from Janet Woodring. Janet made good use of those eyes in snaring males. So try your luck, Dot. To Mike Burry, that bashful little woman hater, Eddie Rex leaves his 1948 Model T Limousine so that Mike may never be late for school again. Kathleen Taylor wills to Helen Morrow her cheerfulness, friend- liness, and rosy cheeks. We know too that Helen drives a car: put them all together and they spell - b-o-y-s. Another blonde in the class, namely, Julia Woodside, leaves her three periods a day with Mr. Kern to, I bet you couldn't guess. George Wideman, a little on the brainy side, leaves to his pal Acie Anderson his ability to get good marks in chemistry and trigonometry. Friendliness, co-operation and helpfulness are the key words to Virginia Capoferri's success. She wishes it to be willed to all under class men to help them along in their work. Earl Frames wishes to will to Sidney Williams all of his Bryn Mawr gals. Oh Sidney, try and get them. Dot Smith, the girl that everyone knows, leaves her very close friendship with so many boys to none other than Cactus Kate Pierce , who we're sure in that role can use it. Edward Rotay, well, Ed Rotay leaves period. Margaret Meister bestows upon next year's senior play cast all of the fun and good times that she and the other members of the cast had while rehearsing for their unforgettable play. Eleanor Law, captain of the cheerleaders through her senior year, wishes to pass on her cheerleading ability, plus the smile that goes with it, to Helen Wasko. Caroline Lewis, who did quite a bit of secretarial work for Mr. Raub this year, wills her position to any person who wishes only to sit and talk all period. Joe Hurst, Romeo of the Senior Class, wishes to leave this little trait to Roy Davidson who is well acquainted with the part of Romeo. To Ginny Williams - Helen Heleniak leaves her dead eye aim with a hockey stick, plus her enthusiasm both of which seeem to keep the morale of the team very high. Catherine Beatty upon leaving school hates to leave her UPep- sodent Smile behind. However, because she's such a kind hearted soul, the Pepsodent Smile goes to Joan Campbell. Bill McFadden leaves to Paul McKernan his hidden powers on the football field. Along with this-from one Irishman to another- goes his speed. Fuzzy, get that - we said SPEED. Helen Shea leaves that mischievous brain of hers to the whole Junior Class. Helen's ideas range from brewinq odorous chemical concoctions to feeding arsenic to Mr. Fries' fish. Nick Yacovelli, who is quite a studious fellow, wishes to leave this asset to some junior. There's one in particular who is never seen without a book - KENNY DAVIS. We might say that Rona is to Lee as basketball is to Upper Mer- ion -f because they are inseparable and such good pals, Rona leaves to her sister the personality that has made her a friend to everyone with whom she has come in contact. Mr. Atlas - alias - Adam Palaszewski leaves to Carl Schmitz that beautiful physique - just think of those shouders, Beak. To Dolly Dittmar, Bette Syester bequeathes her laugh , the one and only laugh of its kind in the world today. Eugene McHale leaves to Mole his potential powers in the Senior Class, and also his nick name the Turtle . Nancy Harbaugh, another member of the cheerleaders incorpor- ated, wills to Dot Chesky, still another member, her personality smile which has gone a long way to make Nancy a success. Jay Forth leaves his many conversations with Mr. Zuck to the coming seniors. Jay hopes that they will help the new seniors as much as they have helped him. Frances Keil, the tiny tot wishes to pass on to Mary Saboe, a Sophomore blonde, the personality and friendliness that have enabled Franny to have so many friends in school. Stanley Stehman, or you may remember him as that fabulously rich Mr. Parker of the Senior play, leaves to John DeHaven that deep masculine voice that made such a hit. Marjie Van Roden, the other half of the Van Roden Clan, wills her writing ability to Leslie Lee. Marjie wants to be a journalist so her writing ability is definitely an asset to her. Margaret Schaffer, one of the best artists in our class, leaves her technique with the pen to Eleanor Kunda. Frank Marshall, the quietest member of the class while in SCHGOL, wills this little asset to Alex Waldony. Frank is sure that Abner will make good use of it. Stella Szalanski, who just loves to go out nights, wills this pas- time to Agnes Bengen. Agnes loves to stay home so much that Stella thought this would change her view point. Elbert Lee, who is quite a brain student, Wishes to leave his bril- liance in Chemistry to anyone who can become very friendly with Mr. Fries. Helen Baron leaves to the females of Upper Merion the many attractive ways that she wears her hair. Betty Bounds wills to Dorothy Burke all of her noise. This noise of Betty's has given us many a laugh, and Betty hopes that Dot will keep the laughter going. Henry Alderfer or Hornblower Alderfer leaves his post of first class horn blower to all of the members of the band. wants to leave a little to everybody. Betty Foy bequeathes to Lisa Fichter her shortness. Lisa has said many times that she would like to be shorter and Betty could be a little taller, so why not compromise? Reaching Mars before many moons pass, Stanley Kaminski wills his ability at building radios to John Wood another up and coming queer in the field of radio. Molly Damato leaves to the next manager of the basketball team her efliciency and faithfulness to her team. This caused Molly to be an essential part of the team throughout the season. To Dorris Watters, Blanche Kaczmar, wills her jitterbugging partner Corky Rychlak. Take good care of this Doris - Blanche's orders. Last but not least we come to a few new comers - Bill O'I-lara. Joe Kelly, .loe Osinski and Stanley Zugay. These boys were all returned veterans, and to any veteran that returns in the future. these boys leave to them, their willingness, friendliness and co- operation in all of the undertakings of their class. In conclusion, we, the present senior class, leaves to all under- classmen, Upper Merion with its teachers and administration.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION was organized September, I9-46. The first meeting was called to order by the acting chairman, Willieiin Hamilton 35. It was decided that the Association would stress a closer relationship between graduates and school, support and stimulate in- terest in projects of civic and scholastic importance, and encourage graduate activity in sports, musical and theatrical activities. It was also decided to accept all Upper Merion High School teachers into the group as honorary members with Mr. Herbert L. Hensinger to act as chairman and their repre- sentative at the Alumni Meeting. The first election of officers placed these graduates in office: Howard Walker '39, President. John Horsfall '35, Vice President: lssac White '34, Treasurerg Vivian Tufillaro '42, Secretary: and Marian Horsfall '37, Corresponding Secretary. A few months later, Howard Walker found it necessary to relinquish his post and he was succeeded by Issac White. Christine Differ '40 was elected Treaseuer. To date, the Alumni Association has already sponsored several events. Their first undertaking was Home Coming Day held in conjunction with the Annual Bridgeport -- Upper Merion football game. To finance the Sportsmen's Banquet and Dance, a Card, Bingo Party, and Dance was held and to further insure the success of the event, the Junior Class agreed to repeat the per- formance of Deep in the Heart of Texas . The evening was a grand success and Jacob Moser '37 did a splendid job as General Chairman. The Sportsmen Banquet and Dance was held April 22, at the Valley Forge Hotel. Members of all athletic teams, coaches, managers, and cheerleaders were guests oif the Alumni Association. Thus far since it was organized, the organization has sponsored two other groups. An Alumni basketball team and an Alumni Chorus under the director- ship of Frank Law '36, who at present time is music instructor at the Haver- ford School. In all, the Upper Merion High School Alumni Association enjoyed a pros- perous and activity-lilled year. So, remember Seniors, when the time comes, join your alumni. HIFIJIIS Dr. and Mrs. Joseph F..

FOR MAN-SIZED IUBS It's the man-sized job that Autocar Trucks are built to do, and the man-sized load they're engineered to command. They do both- safely, swiftly, economically, and on time. No one knows this better than truck buyers who know costs. No one confirms it faster than truck drivers who know guts and power on the road. Autocar Trucks cost more because they're worth more. They're worth more because they're precision-built and superbly engineered to be the best heavy-duty trucks you can buy.
