    Cheltenham High School Class of 1958 50th Reunion Weekend October 25 and 26, 2008 June 1958, is it really 50 years? We said good-bye to CHS with laughter and through tears. Now is the time to come together, to re-live happy days, to share the stories of our lives since we parted ways. Come solo, bring your spouse, a date, a friend or significant other. We have decided to hold the reunion at the Huntingdon Valley Country Club to be as convenient for all the classmates that have stayed nearby as well as giving you out-of-towners a chance to return to the old neighborhood. Do you remember – Double dates, lunch boxes with thermos, the Hot Shoppe, Lee’s Hoagies, Erlen theater? When war was a card game. How about Willow Grove Park? Howdy Doody? Lone Ranger? Walking to school? Farber’s? 3-D movies? The Shadow knows? Go to our website, WWW.CHS1958.NET (old url still works) for updated information on the weekend. Also look under ‘Class Roster’. Check for incorrect information. Contact old friends. Hunt down the missing. Let Mickey Langsfeld at 1673 Paper Mill Road, Meadowbrook, PA, 19046 or [email protected] know about any of these changes or additions. As part of our celebration, we hope to put together a souvenir yearbook.

  • La Salle College High School Football: in Retrospect
    La Salle College High School Football: In Retrospect NOTE: This is the eighth of, I hope, many retrospectives highlighting some unique history of the football program at La Salle. The topics to discuss seem endless at this time. Hope you enjoy these. Bill Wasylenko, ‘69 Issue Number Eight: Historic Battlefield Sites Recent road trips to Bergen Catholic and to Rutgers Stadium to play New York’s Monsignor Farrell proved to be the first forays into New Jersey for the Explorers since 1995, when they took on Cherokee in Marlton, after three consecutive years of battles with Holy Cross. Though the ventures outside of the Philadelphia area are now few and far between, it wasn’t that way in the early years of La Salle football. In fact, in the early years of La Salle football, many games were played in New Jersey. This probably occurred for a number of reasons. Prior to the existence of the Catholic League, which officially debuted in 1920, a football schedule must have been cobbled together each year, and the logic of playing schools in New Jersey is a little clearer when you realize that La Salle was on North Broad Street at the time, only a mile and a half from the Delaware River, so many Jersey schools were considered close enough to be scheduled. A game in 1903 was played against South Jersey Institute. In the teens and early twenties of the last century, New Jersey schools such as Vineland, Bridgeton, Wenonah, Hammonton, Atlantic City, Woodbury, and Palmyra played against La Salle. Cathedral in Trenton, Ocean City, Burlington, Moorestown, and Camden Catholic also took on the Explorers in the late 20’s.

Department of the Interior, Bureau of Education, Washington. Sir: Many students apply for admission to higher institutions in other States and sections than those in which they have received their high-school preparation. Many also seek certificates from ex¬ amining and licensing boards, which have no direct means of know¬ ing the standards of the schools from which the applicants come. The demand for this information led the Bureau of Education, first in the spring of 1913 and again in the autumn of 1914, to undertake the collection and preparation of lists of high schools and academies accredited by State universities, approved by State departments of education, or recognized by examining and certifying boards and by certain other agencies. The demand proved to be even greater than had been anticipated. The first edition of the bulletin was soon exhausted. There have be^n many requests from college and uni¬ versity officers for copies of the second edition. Moreover, changes are made in these lists of accredited schools from year to year.
