Much of this issue of the Journal is concerned, in one way or another, with the school's Long Range Plan. The temptation, now that the plan has been completed and sent to you who are reading this, is to breathe a huge sigh of relief, put it safely away on the shelf, and settle back into the routines of the past, free at last from some of the demands on time and energy which produc­ ing the Plan required. Who, after all, would deny that, thanks to the superb leadership of Bill Burks and the contributions of all those who worked on it, an amibi- tious and important effort has been successfulv con­ cluded, and we are all the better for it.

The PDS gym, festively decorated and candlelit, was the setting on the evening of Saturday, October 30 for the Alumni Association’s first fund-raising event. Over 300 alumni, parents and friends of the school gathered for cocktails, dinner and entertainment featuring a show by The Inn Cabaret. The Inn Cabaret, a local of highly talented amateurs, performs seasonally to capacity audiences at Princeton’s . Their revues range from single acts to skits by the whole cast and from comedy to tragi-comedv to wonderful, heart-wrenching songs. They should be seen at least once in a lifetime. The party began with cocktail music bv pianist Harry Heher, Jr., brother of Jack ’45 and Garry ’49, and ended with dancing to the Dixieland sounds of Definitely Jazz, a group headed bv PDS student Jon Spiegel. From start to finish, the evening was a delight.

The Fall Season

By Holly Burks ’77

The fall season was one of the best ever for the girls’ sports program. The varsity team won the New Jersey private school championship, the varsity soccer team was runner-up in the first PDS invitational tournament, and the cross-country team also won the New Jersey state championship. Field hockey was exceptional this year. The varsity, led by Captain and Most Valuable Player Barbara Russeil ’77, and high scorer Holly Burks ’77, finished with an 11-2-2 record for the year. New coach Melissa Magee and her assistant Daren Hicks Brown ’73 did an excellent job in forging the players into championship caliber. The team was at its best against Princeton High School 1-0, Kent Place (in the tournament 2-0) and Blair 3-1. The loss of seven seniors will hurt next year’s team, but the prospect for a winning season will again be strong, considering the fact that the holes will be filled by JV players whose team also had a winning record Author on right at 7-6-0. Lolly Dennison ’79 was high scorer for the JV team despite her mid-season promotion to varsity. was an especially strong team this year.
