HORSEY TAKES
NEW V. P. POST
Roy M. Horsey, Swarthmore
avenue resident, has been elected
executivc vice·president of the
Orangc Crush, Old Colony, and
Inter Alnerican Companies and
will assume the duties of that position in the second week of .December.
Company
headquarters
are in Chicago, Illinois, with production located in California and
distrbiution and sales divisions
scattered throughout the United
States and several
, foreign countnes.
Horsey has re3igned his position with the duPont Company
with which he had been associated
for more than 20 years in sevcral
capacities. Joining the company
shortly arer it entered the rayon
business, he was first engCJ.gcd in
rayon sales and later when the
company entered the Cellophane
field Mr. Horsey did much of the
pioneer work establishing markets
for that product. He served as Assistant Director of Cellophane
sales until the Development Division of the Rayon Department was
. organized and then became its director..
In the spring of this year Horsey became active in the develop·
ment of markets· for the. postwar
expansion of nylon and was serving as manager of the Philadelphia
Division whell. the new connection
terminated his work.
}'Ir. Horsey is a native of Buffalo, N. Y. where he attended the
public schools. He majored in economics an.d business administration
at the Washingtoll School of Economics and Georgetown University, \Vashington, D. C.
Mr. Horsey has taken an active
interest in the community. He
served the Home and _School as
chairman of its committee which
raised several hundred dollars for
the High School Scholarship FUlld.

He was also a member, of the association's committee to survey and
sock to increase ,leachers' salaries.
Last year Mr. Horsey organized a
committee to establish an athletic
welfare fund to be used for the
benefit of Swarthmore ,school students injured in sports activities.
Mrs. Horsey and the youngest
son Jint will not accompany Mr.
Horsey to Chicago at this time
but will remain . in Swarthmore
until Jim gradua~es from High
school in June. There arc two
other sons who saw active service
during the war. John is now an
instructor in chemistry a.t Ohio

working on his doctor's dekree in
that subject. Bill is .. studcnt in

Christmas gifts. .
How best to go about helping
them was the question faced by
the Young Adults and CollegeAge-Fellowship groUps at the
Presbyterian Church. Their answer is a Toy Reclamation
Project.
Almost every home in Swarthmore possesses discarded toys.
Tbe young people are giving .time
and skill to the work of reconditioning any toyS received
at the Church within the next
10 days.
Already the response has been
heart-warming; the work is progressing and plans are being

And as always, the children of

sist Santa Claus in preparing his
annual list of local visits. So all
children in the borough who want
to see Santa in person Christmas
Eve should have one of their parents call Swarthmore 0900 by Monday, December 22, and place their
names, ages and addresses on his
1947 list.
For 60 years now Santa, iJy special
arrangement, has made sure that
each Swarthmore child who wishes
to catch a glimpse of him when he
brings his eagerly awaited gifts,
may enjoy that precious privilege.
Naturally he must perpare a new
list each year, for so many boys
and girls grow up or move away,
and there is always a crop of ne\\'cOllIers.
Just make sure mother or dad gets
your name on the list, and ask

this dramatic actress-dancer is contributing a fearless and searching
approach to the great problem of
further understanding of the eastern mind, as shown by one of its
expressions, the dance form.
This was brought out in the intermission by Mrs Helene P. Rea,
president of the Pennsylania Women's International LeagUe for
Peace and Freedom, who made a
strong plea that the women in the
audience join in the organized push
of the League for furthering' efforts toward world peace.

STRAINED
The program of oriental dances
given by Juana, for the Women's
International League, Swarthmore.
Branch, Thursday, December 4th,
proved competely satisfying to the
audiellce assembled in the Womens
Club.
The complete mastery of the difficult techniques of eastern dance
patterns, showed that the enthusiastic reviews of recent New York
recitals ,,,"ere wen d~served.
In creating choreography of content and originality Juana, in certain numbers, used her beautiful
voice. Her enunciation was musical
clear and full of moving overtones.
Many dancers have givendemonstrations of the oriental d~nce, leaving
the observer amazed at the control
of the muscles involved form the
toes to the top of the head. But
this reviewer has never witnessed
more complete control of the facial
expressions which accompany a set
dance and which this artist especially emphasized in her explaliation
and demonstration of the- main facial displays of the eight predominant emotions of the dances she portrayed.
Ranging through Hindu and JavaneSe dances, the program ended
with a demonstration of the Hawaiian hulu-hula as, it was performed
historically, and as it is performed
today influenced by modern forms
of dailcing.
.
As a you,ng artist of the dance,

Powers to fill these positions.
Viewed on a long-range basis,
there are two bases for hope that .
there will be no war in the future.
The first hope is that of an atomic
slalemate, that war will be avoided
through mutual fear of destruction
by atomic weapons. The second
hope is based on an historical approach, and the realization how unimportant today are the burning
issues of a few generations agQ.
Mr. Hiss concluded with an appeal
to all individuals to decide their
own optimistic or pessimistic point...
of-view for- themselves, by discussion and deep thought. He believes
th.t in the modern age ·the influence of the individual is Illuch
under-rated, and that if each person will take his own stand, it -will
have great effect on the future developments of the nations.
The meeting Was presided over
jointly by Mrs. .Glenn Morrow,
President of the Leagune of Women
Voters ,and Mrs. John Michael,
President of the Women's Club.
The program was arranged through
the cooperation of Mrs. Phelps
Soule. Program Chairman of the
League of Women Voters, and lIrs.

It recently was my privilege to present 50-year service
pins to 103 men who have served the transit company
loyally and faithfully for a half-century-a working lifetime devoted to an
entia! publicserv:lce. We are proud'
of these men, and grateful.

for fifty years or more, had an important part in developing Philadelphia's transit system. Some worked on cars

A group of men, who made
public transportation their lifework, beamed with pride when
presented recently With gold
pins signifying fifty years' service with PTe. Eighteen men
this year brought to a total of
103 the number of transit em, ployes who have completed a
half-centuryormoreofservice.
Foreveryoneassociatedwith
the transit system, it waa an
occasion of deep signi1icance.
The ceremony symbolized the
lifelong appeal of transportation work and the personal
satisfactions that arise from
long and faithfulpublic service.
A number of the 50-year
men of 1947 were motormen
or conductors. Others worked
garages, unseen by the general
public but performing indiapensable service just the same.
Veterans who completed
a half-century of service
year are: Charles E. Birney,
