In the past three years we have been learning how we can best preserve these heritages, how we can best perform our duties as future citizens, and how we can demon- strate our patriotism. It is with great pride, therefore, that we have chosen for the theme of our yearbook-Love of Country. BETTY JANE DROUSE, '42 fx. 3 f ,nf ' lf I 1 C CONTENTS RECEIVING GUI?

Graflex Picture by Allen B 5 Ol-ll Tl-lUS BE IT EVER.. .. America is a land of people. Great men like Paul Bunyan and .lohn l-lenry, like Thomas Jetlerson, George Washington, and Abraham Lincolnl lhen there are men like .lohnny Appleseed. l'le was not a great man, just an ordinary citizen who did a simple thingfdistributed appleseeds to the settlers ol the West. That is the kind of person who makes up America, the kind ol people who crossed the oceanito settle this vast new land. The little man and his family really settled this country-the cobbler, the printer's apprentice, the larmer, and the ship builder. -lhe wile became her husband's equal in America. Besides stirring the pot and rocking the cradle her hands chopped wood, plowed Fields, and harvested crops. These people, who gave up their possessions, their sense ol security, and the way ol life to which they were accustomed, knew what they wanted. Yes, they wanted security, but more than that they wanted freedom. All ol them wanted freedom of religion, press, and assembly, but they did not think ol that at First. 'lhey wanted enough land to Farm to make a living lor their lamily-a better livingthan they had made in Europe. -lhat is why they left and came to America: left the slums ol London, the lonely moors ol Scotland, the fertile land ol the Palatinlate, and the Famine-infested land ol lreland. -lhey realized that thfisjvvas a good land-good because no one interfered with their progress, good because there was no jealousy,no hate, no persecution. V g' ' But soon the land vvasfclearecl, andthe crops were coming along fairly vvell, and they had time to listen and to think. And they heard some things 6 -X -. -U f.:-Q?

A land rich with rivers, forests, and possibilities. Land no other white men had seen. More and more people left the East for the West. They left in prairie schooners, down the river in flat boats. Some even walked. A man, Andrew Joclcson, became President. We fought a war with Mexico, and gold was discovered in California. This was truly a great country. - - x But the people startedgto worryagtiut a man named Abraham Lincoln . fi' and a question called slavery. lzinallyfthat man became President, and a great and terrible. war sivas fought about slavery. After the war America lcept on being greater. These were the rip-roaring days of our country- the days of the Comstolte Lode, Dodgelcity, and the Cimarron. General Custer became of hero overnight because of his stand against the Indians on the l.ittl3g,Big l-lorn. Thaddeus Stevens introduced high school education into Pennsylvania. people were becoming education-conscious, for they lcnew education makes bettercitizens. Oil, Rockefeller, and trusts were the topics of conversation. Some Americans were getting too rich, and some- - 1 thing would have to be done about it, So the Americans did something about it. All this time Almerfcapiwas becoming greater and igreater. Someone had invented the automobile and the airplane. Qver in Europe they were having a war, so we stopped what we were doing and went over to help the democracies win. After the peace was made, we came home and 8 became great some more. There were new terms in American lile nowf assembly line, public enemy, and aeronautical terms. There was a World,s Eair in Chicago in 'l93Q, and in New Vorlc in 1939. people tall4ed about Mussolini, l'litler, pan-Americanism, and Roosevelt. We were in school now. It was strange at First, but we were learning all sorts ol uselul things. Now we are ready to graduate, but the world is not what we thought it would be lilqe, for you see there is another war going on. But that is all right. We'll have to do just what the people did during Washington's time, during Jetlersons time, and during l.incoln's time and just what our fathers did- stop what we are doing and help win the war. Alter that we will just l4eep on helping America become even greater. l-lEl.EN MOQRE REED, '42 4 THQMAS JEFFERSON MEMORIAL Phgtggrgph Georg MQ,-Ste Washington, D.

Let us review our sophomore, junior, M of and senior years with these in mind. Responsibility: To the citizen goes the responsibility of holding ottice and the privilege of the tree ballot, so it has been in our three years of high school. ln our sophomore year Everett Gill was elected president, l-lazelyn Myer, vice-president, Martha Battan, secretary, Jaclc Thompson, treasurer. Junior class otticers included president, Robert March, vice-president, Marie Court, secretary, June Ray, and treasurer, Cheston l-lall. Jacls Thompson was relected treasurer in our Senior year when l-larry Clouser was president, Margery Saylor, vice-president, Dorothy Thompson, secretary. A great responsibility and honor goes to a more outstanding citizen, a leader: The President of the United States. Such a position is paralleled at West Chester l-ligh School by the president ot the Student Council, the democratic body representing the free ideas of the student body. This leader in 'l94'l-42 was Donald Grubb, who was assisted by l-lazelyn Myer as vice- president. Physical Fitness: ln the world of today physical Fitness is indeed needed. A clear mind and a strong body are the needs of the most useful citizens. Such citizens will be represented by our athletes, Everett Gill, l'larry Clouser, Theodore Platt, George l-limelright, Joseph Polite, Leslie Pernsley, John Pribula, and Thomas Leary. The girls in this group are: Gladys Sager, l-lelen Shanlc, Jessie lzzi, Margery Saylor, Nancy Shank, Patricia O'Neill, Mary Kates, Betty Wynn, and Esther Scott. Culture: The culture of a nation depends on the people entirely. ln high school the range ol culture includes drama, essays, chorus, band, orches- tra, honor roll, and club activities. The outstanding actors and actresses of our class-Rachel Ann Beal, Edna Kirlc, Margery Saylor, John Dunning, William Johnson, and Willis Weaver-have upheld our name in the productions, Nathan Hate, Stage Door, and EverStnce Eve. An operetta, Hollywood Extra, and a minstrel review, Keep'Em Smitiao have brought Forth our vocal and comedy talents. Eight senior members of the l-ligh School Chorus attended District Chorus, and three of these-Mildred Satterthwaite, Robert Roy, and Margery Saylor were also chosen to' be members of the State Chorus. ln line with the musicians come the band and the orchestra which have Fine representation from the Class of '42 Scholastically we have done well. Donald Grubb, l-lelen Reed, Margery Saylor, and Betty Wynn have been l-lonor Students for three years, l larry Clouser, Elinor Janney, Marian Watson, and l'lazelyn Myer, and Ann Livingston For two years, and Lewis Clayton, John Dunning, Lucille Faust, Edith l-lamer, William Johnson, Bette Jane Drouse, Mildred 18 BETTER CITIZENS!-IIP Satterthvvait, Dorothy Thompson, and Cla Williams For one year. The First award for the annual essay contest has been presented to Helen Reed for 3 years. John Dunning, June Ray, and James Reilly have taken second prize in the sophomore, junior, and senior years respectively. We are justly proud of Dorothy Thompson vvho has been presented with the Soroptomist Art Award for Q years and of Ruth Dickens vvho received a typing medal in her sophomore year. The D.WebsterMeredith Medal went to WillisWeaver as vvinner of the Boys' Speaking Contest, in which John Dunning captured second prize. Helen Shank won the oral spelling match in assembly. ln keeping with the thoughts and the Feelings which have been actively alive in the minds and the hearts of all of us, the theme For our Commencement Exercises vvas The Pillars of Democracy . The Honor Speakers chosen to present the various phases of this topic vvere: Harry Clouser, Donald Grubb, Helen Moore Reed, Margery Saylor, Dorothy Thompson, and Betty Wynn. All these achievements have not been in vain. They will be of priceless value to us now and in the Future. MARY KATES, '42 BETTY WVNN, '49 dns. r SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President ........

There were sixty-Five participants who helped to put the ball over the net. One of the most important reasons for the large turn-out was that it takes from nine to twelve girls to make a team. The teams were grouped according to classes: one senior, two junior, and two sophomore. The outstanding team was the senior group. These girlsidisplayed both skill and teamwork. 'A' Gladys Sager, captain of the hockey team, is the outstanding girl athlete in our school. During her high school career she has participated in all girls' sports and has won eight letters and a silver Although Stogie has displayed superiority in all sports, she is modest and cooper- ates with her teammates. Basketball is her pre- ference, tennis and hockey run a close second. Besides winning in sports, Stogie has won the friendship of many.

St. John Xl, 25:26. ELIZABETH N. PEIRCE Assistant Principal Junior High School i l HE schools face a great challenge. They must prepare the boys and girls for an emerging future that vvill have more complexities than any other generation in America has ever exper- ienced. If our precious privileges are to be maintained, it will tal4e the unselfish effort of everyone tovvard that end. This de- fense of our freedom will be no stronger than the characters of those vvho defend it. The schools must, therefore, assume a greater responsibility in helping the students acquire and develop those characteristics that vvill malqe them capable and efficient members of the new society. 109 Top row Cleft to rightl: Ferris, Penrose, Whitcraft, Woolman, Staclchouse, McCormick Second row: Hallowell, Welch, Henderson, Peirce, Stetson, James, Scheetz, Althouse Third row: Muth, Focht, Shetter, Elinslcy, Bixler JUNIOR HICEH SCHOOL FACULTY English JANET HUMPHREY LEFEVRE ELIZABETH NN.
