Ed Merrick wrote: "I have great photos for you from Carol Snyder Cipperley of the Class of 1954 at Freeland High School. In this first shot, I can identify, in the first row of girls seated, Barbara Marencin on the left end and Carol Snyder, near the center with glasses. In the rear standing are, beginning third from the left, Robert Lynn; Adolph "Buzzy" Peters, who would become principal of FHS; and Henry Bartol, class valedictorian whose father had a shoe repair shop on Chestnut Street."
This photo of
FHS class of 1954's Class Night at Pocono Manor comes
from Carol Snyder Cipperley, via Ed Merrick. Ed wrote: "Here is the photo that Carol Snyder
Cipperley sent me of the
graduating class on June 1, 1954, at Pocono Manor. I have identified as
many as I could and left numbers for ease of identification by the fans
of your web site. Please note that these IDs are to the best of my
ability and that corrections are welcome. I hope Carol's generosity
will inspire others to get offer their priceless photos, which I know
are sitting in shoe boxes in drawers."Front row, above “F,” Carol Ann Corazza; above “Sch,” Joyce Kiddish; above “ol,” Carol Snyder, above “of,” Caroline Holland. Girls on the left end are possibly Barbara Marencin and possibly Dorothy Franek. Last girl on the right is Arlene Karpowich.
