amateur Della Reese.

the only person who can understand them.


Marilyn Broad presents her syndicated column in the Junior
Reporter Club to journalist Dave Abbott.


A number of baffled seniors will their slide rules and prolix, pro­
digious vocabularies to anyone brave enough to use them.


Dave Hughes leaves his maze of record players, projectors, and
electronic gadgets to underclassmen Rich Peterson and Rich Mathis.


Ruth Nordstrom bequeaths her wild dancing ability to Bob
Appleton.


Joe Tomko presents his sturdy, new rocking chair to President

To Mr. Greenhut, we happily present a lifetime supply of home­

To Mr. Gabora, we reluctantly award an out-dated machine-gun
with which to protect the "goodies" in his famous "hangout."


To Mr. Balent, we regretfully present three Pancho Gonzales
championship tennis balls with the hope that he will have continued
success in his bid for the world tennis title.



To Mr. White, we lovingly award various personal belongings
of Wilfred Hetzel, inculding that famous basketball which the
latter used in his spine-tingling, world-renowned sharpshooting
exhibitions.

The Senior Class of Woodrow
Wilson High School made its an­
nual pilgrimage to our nation's
capitol on February 28, March
1 and 2. While in Washington,
we visited many national shrines,
the theater, a night club, and
many other places of interest.
Transportation was by chartered
bus, and our two nights in the
city were spent at the Hotel Bur­
lington. The highlight of the trip
was dinner and a superb stage
show by Miss Della Reese at the
Casino Royal Night Club.




We were guests of the Junior Class at a delicious breakfast before starting on our w ay.

THE TEAM

The


"ONWARD AND UPWARD" seemed to be the
keyword of our very spirited football team this Golden
year. Under the excellent coaching of AAr. Lou
Sorrentino and his staff, the boys showed an im­
provement over previous records and drew rec­ Rams
ord-breaking numbers of fans to their exciting
games.
Much promise was shown in the underclass­
men, and the excellent abilities executed by them
are sure to bring "finer things" to the Wilson
squad in the future.
In spirit and enthusiasm Wilson was an un­
beaten squad, being followed by the faithful
fans to every game. The spark has been kindled
this year, and we look forward to a blaze of
excitement from the team in the future.

Touchdown!





























And another!

1961-62 SOCCER TEAM




















Soccer, undoubtedly one of the world's most
exciting sports, is greatly enjoyed by the partici­
pants, as well as the spectators. Although soccer
is thought of as a minor sport, we at Wilson con­
sider it an integral part of our fall sports pro­
gram. With AAr. Baker as their coach, the 1961-62
team put up a good fight against strong opposi­
tion, ending their season in third place in the
Lower Bucks County League. Wilson is looking
forward to a very promising soccer team next
year.

Chess Team

We at Wilson are fortunate in having an excel­
lent chess team represent us in interscholastic
competition. As in the past two years, once again
Wilson has won the Lower Bucks County Chess
Championship. These outstanding students should
be commended for their exemplary efforts and
certainly deserve-much credit for the recognition
they have brought to Wilson.












69

Ram Wrestling







With determined minds and lots of "spunk,"
the Wilson wrestlers combined their efforts to
build a very impressive record this year. Their de­
sire to win, along with their terrific will power
to "make weight," led them on to victory.
Wrestling is constantly increasing in importance
throughout the area as well as the school, draw­
ing larger crowds at every meet. Although we
will be without the efforts of the senior members
of the squad in the future, we will certainly be
following the members who "fill their shoes"
next year.

Let's go, Wilson!






The girls' hockey team, under the direction of Miss
Diamanti, had a very successful record this season,
o This was a great improvement over previous years, even
completing their record with 5 wins, 4 ties, and 1 loss.
though the team has only been together a few years.
The highlight of the season was the Pennsbury game
in which, for the first time in two years, the Falconettes
failed to score, due to the fine efforts of our girls.
We are looking forward to an even better season from
our hockey team next year and hoping that we will
soon win the championship.

The Champs






























Trophies for everyone.

Champions again! For the second year, Woodrow Wilson has achieved the lofty
position of Lower Bucks County League Basketball Champions. Although we had
held this title before, it was a difficult task keeping it. The competition was much
stiffer this year. Many play-offs had to be surmounted due to-the new division of
the league. The team deserved its loyal following, displaying much crowd-pleasing
action and excitement.
In the district tournament. Ambler defeated Wilson only in an overtime, fought
with tension. Two points separated us from victory. We hope our fine tradition
will be carried on, since much fine material will remain. However, Coach Olin will
feel the loss of senior team members John Keener, Byron Hopkins, Bob Urbach
and Charles Young.

Girls’ Basketball
































A quick reverse


Although the records do not reveal it, the bas­
"Drive! Drive!"
ketball team this year did an excellent job, put­
ting up a powerful fight against strong opposi­
tion. In all their games, they showed spirit, en­
thusiasm and sportsmanship—typical of all Wilson
endeavors. Although the team is losing several
good players including Dianne Olin, their high
scorer. Miss Diamanti is seeking the talents of
those returning letter winners and any new­
comers.
We at Wilson are looking forward to a success­
ful season next year.

Student Body,
We, your cheerleaders for 1961-62, wish to ex­
press our sincere thanks to each and every one
of you for the tremendous school spirit you have
demonstrated during both .the football and bas­
ketball seasons. Because of the continued support
and fighting spirit shown, we feel our efforts
as cheerleaders have been well rewarded. We
are both proud and honored to have represented
the finest school in Lower Bucks County, WOOD-
ROW WILSON HIGH SCHOOL.

Under the skillful guidance of Mr. Hopely, our
gym team is accomplishing daring feats on the
a flying rings, parallel bars, and other apparatus.
Since gymnastics is judged on an individual's
own skill and performance, the members of the
s gym team are to be commended for their excel­
lence of effort.
Although the gym team has won only a small
t number of competitive events, we are sure that
in the near future the gym team will be one of
the very finest.

Bowling





"Strike!" This sound is music to the ears of the members of the bowling team.
These boys have been constantly improving their scores, thereby bringing in­
creased recognition to our school.
We have been placed in competition with well-known bowling schools and
have fared quite well. Many seniors will be absent from future matches, so our
hope will lie in the promising underclassmen, to lead our team to further victory.

Swimming































































Being fortunate enough to have a
swimming pool, we at Wilson have made
good use of it, not only in regular class
instruction but in competitive activities,
also. You can find both boys and girls
swimming in the numerous interscholastic
meets. Mr. Ingram serves as our excellent
coach, as well as being the chief in­
structor of classroom swimming during
the schoolday. Our very capable girls'
swimming coach is Mrs. Jordan, who also
directed the water ballet.

Under the direction of President Mel Melnick, the Stu­

plished many interesting and exciting activities for this
year. Among other activities. Slave Day 1962 was an ac­
tivity for which every senior was anxiously waiting. This
was the day when our Seniors take the leash in hand and
our devoted underclassmen become the slaves. The day
was enjoyed by all, including the slaves, making it a
successful and profitable activity for Student Council.

Any student who has maintained a "B" average scholastically
and has excelled in leadership, character and service for the
school may qualify for possible initiation into the National Honor
Society. Under the direction of AAr. Tosh and the four officers
who are selected each semester, the society performs various serv­
ices for the school, as well as sponsoring many activities on their
own. A very limited and select group, membership in the National
Honor Society has been a goal of many Wilson students.

Non Excide Editorial Staff












































Our staff.
The group responsible for presenting the diary of all school events at Wilson
is the staff of Non Excide. From their headquarters in the student publications
room, all ideas are initiated which form the yearbook. In addition to writing ar­
ticles, taking pictures, laying out pages and typing, deadlines always have to be
met.
You now have in your possession the final result of their efforts.

Non Excide Business Staff









































An equally important yearbook group is the
NON EXCIDE BUSINESS STAFF. Keeping track
of the financial end of NON EXCIDE is a difficult
task, and thanks to this efficient group of stu­
dents, the job is accurately done. This year, as
in preceding years, the business staff also spon­
sored the RAM—WRAP-UP, an exciting conclusion
to our football season.

Club
















Throughout the entire year, the Woodrow Wil­
son High School Key Club has demonstrated its
unique ability and desire to locate the work to
be done; surge ahead, and accomplish it. Under
the direction of Mr. Stavitz, this all male organiza­
tion developed initiative and leadership, pro­
moted citizenship, and created boundless spirit.
Key Club organized the Welcome Dance and
Jamboree Day, and assisted the School through­
out all service requirements as well as conduct­
ing a full schedule of its own social activities.

The Ram's Horn, Wilson's news­
paper, is a source of enjoyment for
all. It informs the student body of
current news, coming events, and
special achievements as well as pro­
viding a glimpse of all Wilson's activ­
ities. Under the leadership of Miss
Thronton, the staff, consisting of
editors, reporters, salesmen and ar­
tists, all work faithfully together to
produce our own school newspaper.
An innovation this year has been
the publishing of two editions of the
Ram's Horn—one grey and one gold
—for Ramnastics.

Through the efforts of Mr. Mack, the band has soared into
prominence in the area. Playing at football games and many other
♦ d
I activities, the Wilson band has inspired our teams with their ex­
cellent music and interesting formations. The improvement over
the initial group has been tremendous. All endeavors of this fine
n organization have met with huge success, including the Spring
Concert.
Marching down the field on a wave of rousing music, the
Woodrow Wilson High School Band will continue to enrich the
school.

Color Guard







Another highlight to Wilson's co-
curricular activity program is its "61-
62" Color Guard. This unit consists
of seven regulars and two alternates
under the direction of Mr. Mack. These
girls have carried our colors at foot­
ball games, several community pa­
rades, basketball games, and also rep­
resented us very ably in competition.
Much of the success of the Color Guard
must be accredited to the spirit and
enthusiasm of the girls. The unit con­
sists of Fran Spano, Phyllis Burmann,
Sue Roeber, Dale Knetlar, Joyce Brid-
ing, Carole Gilmer, Sandy Caldwell,
and Kathy Lavana and Sheila Mulvey,
alternates.

Majorettes










Leading the band at football games
and performing between halves of
the basketball games could be found
our majorettes. With their spinning ba­
tons and high hats, they give a dra­
matically military appearance.
Directed by Miss Miller, the major­
ettes have shown great skill this year,
and will all be back next year to con­
tinue their exemplary work.

Dance Band































The Woodrow Wilson High School Dance Band, from very meager beginnings
less than a year ago, has grown to enjoy an amazing popularity in a very short
time. This fast growth has been a direct result of the band's placing first in the
"Bands of Tomorrow" contest in Philadelphia, where it proved to be the best band
in the Philadelphia area. Since the contest, the band has appeared on television
and has been heard on radio, as well as appearing before various organizations.
Our very talented conductor, Mr. John Mack, deserves a lot of credit for his help
in making our Woodrow Wilson High School Dance Band another "Wilson First."

Any student who has a flair for acting and loves having a good time can find
just what he is looking for in the Thespian's Club. Under the direction of Mr.
Christian, this organization affords the individual fellowship, as well as teaching
him the many facets of acting. Continuing the tradition, two principal productions
were presented, the senior play, "Liliom," and the all-school musical, Okla­
homa!". In addition, the group participated in several dramatic contests, including
the Spring Drama Festival here at WIison. One of the most active groups in the
school, the Thespian's Club deserves a great deal of credit for the excellent con­
tributions it has made to the culture of Woodrow Wilson High School.

Wilson’s Captivating Chorus
























































Under the able leadership of Dr. Jack
D. Brammer, our wonderful chorus has
added much to the life of Wilson. Partic­
ipants and audiences alike have and al­

Voices of Wilson High.

Bright and early . . . well,

two directors, plus the group
advisor, Mr. Ben, report to the

Announcers are judged and
chosen by members of the
English department according
to their voice tone, rate of
speed, and variation of pitch,
among other criteria.




























U.N. Day




Another item that must be
added to Wilson's hall of accom­
plishments for the school year
'61-'62 is its third annual United
Nations Day on October 24th.
The program was celebrated in
the usual unique Wilson manner.
In all parts of the Social Studies
wing, and various other places
throughout the building, one
could easily note that U.N. Day
was being celebrated. An assem­
bly was held in the auditorium
that night. Highlights of the pro­
gram included guest speakers
and a group of students who per­
formed various dances from
many countries. Mr. Grossman,
Mr. Greenhut and Mr. Stavitz
were the overseers of the entire
U.N. Day program and must be
truly commended.

Woody’s Corner



































SCHOOL STORE STAFF.

















Each afternoon, directly following dismissal,
the buzz of activity and the hum of relaxation can
be found in the large congregation around what
has come to be known as "Happy Harry's." Usu­
ally the center of after school activity, the school
store has become a sort of "meeting place" for
friends to discuss the trials and tribulations of the
school day.
Woody's Corner is operated for the convenience
of the students, and offers such necessities as
paper and pencils, as well as a large assortment
of special school souvenirs such as sweaters and
novelties. Open each morning, it provides the
students with a convenient "shopping center"
which serves them with any supplies they may
need.
The service rendered by the "Dugout" after
school offers the students mid-day refreshments
to help relax for a moment before going on to
the afternoon activities.






Stock those shelves.

Council of Debate









A group which has brought much pride
to Woodrow Wilson this year has been
the Council of Debate. In competition
against schools in New Jersey and Penn­
sylvania, they always brought home a
gratifying record.
Major activities this year included par­
ticipation in the Temple Speech Festival,
and district representation at the Pennsyl­
vania State Finals at Penn State Univer­
sity, where the group achieved a notable
record of Second Place. In addition, the
group attended the Bux-Ches-Mont
Forum.













Forensics



Council








Since its initiation into the National
Forensics League three years ago, the
members of the Woodrow Wilson Fo­
rensics Council, led by their outstanding
member, Mr. Petroziello, have spent
countless hours building and planning for
greater and more successful participation.
This year the seeds of these efforts
have truly begun to bloom, for we had
more participation than ever before. This
large amount of participation also has
enabled us to bring home a record num­
ber of awards.
As in the past, we participated in the
New Jersey State Forensic League and
the Pennsylvania State League competi­
tion.
The highlights of the season were the
Temple Speech Festival, where we placed
fifth in a field of approximately seventy-
five schools, and the Pennsylvania State
finals, where he had qualifying partici­
pants in three of five events.
We of Wilson are proud of this fine
organization and are sure that they will
continue on to bigger and greater suc­
cesses.
