These thirteen members are chosen for outstanding participation in at least one activity, qualities of leadership, and a satisfactory scholastic standing. Seven new members-three juniors, two sophomores, and two freshmen-are chosen near the close of the school term at which time their initiation takes place. The organization was founded in 1925 by Dr. A. P. Knight. It enjoys the honor of being one of the oldest strictly student organizations in the school. Since the begin- ning, the club has sought to aid some worthy student in continuing his high school education through a scholarship fund, or when no fund is available, to apply its resources in some other direction where they will be most beneficial. The activities of the group include a Thanksgiving Farmer-Farmerette dance, a spring dance, the sponsoring of the football concession stand in cooperation with the Student Council, and the holding of a banquet for members and alumni of the society.

The Council is doing its part in the war effort. Christmas gifts were made for the Annual Red Cross Roll Call at lndiantown Clap. All the boys who left school during the term were given a furlough bag, bought from contributions from the student body. This year, as never before, the Penny-A-XVeelc has been a tremendous success. A total of 23225.00 was collected this year, enabling the Council to distribute many toys, candy and oranges to the needy families at Christmas. The outstanding social event of the year is the All-School Dance, which was con- ducted in a most successful fashion. Another social event is the Christmas party held for the children of the faculty. Santa Claus was present and gave each boy and girl a gift. The benefits from this year of Council work may readily prove it has been profit- able. The cooperation of the representatives under the able guidance of Bliss Dorothy K. Critz has enabled this to be a successful year.

HAVILAND Director of Choral Music 75l7x,v The Associated Choirs of Pottsville High School The Associated Choirs of Pottsville High School composed of the A Cappella Choir of 86 voices, the Choral Ensemble of 75, the Choral Club of 60, and the Junior Choir of 90, have long enjoyed a state-wide reputation of superior choral music. Until the war-time travel restrictions prevented such activities, the senior choirs participated in numerous state contests, national choral festivals, and out-of-town concerts, including exchange concerts with college choirs and radio broadcasts. The record of seven state championships, a score of district victories as well as visits to Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Johnstown, and Altoona, demonstrated the high regard in which the local choirs were held by authoritative critics throughout the East. All choirs participated in the two traditional concerts, the Christmas concert on December 6, and the 17th Annual lNIusic Festival on Nlay 2. Large and enthusiastic audiences at both concerts evidenced public appreciation of the choirs' efforts. An immoration of the current season was the incorporation of the Verse Choir into the A Cappella Choir in order that joint musical and speech programs could be more con- veniently arranged and rehearsed. During the year, three such integrated programs were presented to concert audiences. At Christmas, the choral pageant, HChrist the l Y -I io' - caan ARY HORN x 'J xffafv .

Costumed, posed groups from the Dramatic Club, under the direction of Miss Blanche Curran, gave colorful visual emphasis to the meaning of the Christmas story. At the May Festival, Carl Sandbergls dramatic poem, The Long Shadow of Lin- coln, was presented, with Janet Reith, '45, and Ann McCarthy, '47, as readers and the incidental music by the A Cappella Choir. HMy Couutryf by Russell W. Davenport, was the patriotic feature of the Mem- orial Day program. A strong plea for American leadership in world cooperation to establish a lasting peace, this challenging poem was given an intelligent and eloquent interpretation by a group of Verse Choir girls. The festival program was much enhanced by colorful folk dances, composed and directed by Miss Hannah Chadwick, instructor of physical education for girls. Music for the dances was furnished by the Choral Club, A Cappella Choir, and Choral Ensemble. Folk songs of Norway, Sweden, Russia, and Czechoslovakia Were splendid vehicles for the dancers. The singing of the senior choirs was fully equal to the stan- da of previous years. This would not be possible but for the training and experience oncerts, these groups sang with enthusiasm, unity, and confidence. ln addition to the regular concerts, the senior choirs also presented programs before 73 gained by the younger singers in the Junior Choir and Choral Club.

The band has been taught and directed for the past eleven years by hir. Leo F. Niinnichbach, Whose many years in professional music is responsible for the true professional style in which our band plays. A noteworthy achievement through- out the aforementioned years has been the prohciency attained by the members of the band in the art of sight-reading. This ability in sight-reading has always received the highest praise from all the guest conductors and guest artists who have visited Pottsville High School, and has also been responsible in great measure for their outstanding success in contests and festivals. For the hrst time in the history of the band, a girl hlled the post of drum major. Patsy linobloch was selected and did an excellent job. lklany fine drills and marching techniques were performed, outstanding of which was the formation of a huge pennant with the letter UPU in the 4' center of it.

' I The Q44 Football Season I Pottsville High completed its Ufgtfgfbm season with three victories against eight defeats. Mr. Unger, latest coach coming to Pottsville at the beginning of this school year, along with Mr. Kadel as assist- ant coach to Mr. Kotys, was a big help. -A green team, composed mostly of sophomores and freshmen, losing eight games, made Lansford, Sunbury, Beth- lehem, Lebanon, Tamaqua, and Hazleton show their power in order to go away from the game with a victory. Francis Cremia received the Lion's Club award for the outstanding player of the football team on December 13, 194-4. P. H. S. 13 St. Clair 7 Pottsville High's gridders opened their 1944 football season before 4,500 excited fans. A brilliant last play of the game was a 45-yard pass from Palko to Macunas, the latter racing the remaining 10 yards for the final scoring of the game. St. Clair scored first on a 3-yard pass from Wolff to Wapinsky for a touchdown. The same pair clicked on a pass for the extra point. On the kick-off after the visitors' touchdown, Minchoff took the kick and behind excellent blocking raced 75 yards for Pottsville's first touchdown. Palko threw to Macunas on fake placement kick for the extra point. Phillips later made a long end around sweep, but was brought down on the 10-yard line. P. H. S. lost the ball on downs. P. H. S. 32 Schuylkill Haven 7 P. H. S. won their second straight game in as many starts as they ran wild over Schuylkill Haven before 4,000 fans. After receiving the opening kick-off, P. H. S. marched 58 yards on eleven plays for a touchdown with McGeoy going over for the first touchdown from the 1-yard line. Coming back in the scoring column in the second quarter via Cremia and Ross blocking a Schuylkill Haven punt and Pottsville taking over deep in the visitors' territory, we scored on a pass from Palko to Macunas. Opening the third quarter, Pottsville scored on twelve plays which cov- ered 78 yards with Phillips scoring. In the final quarter with many yearlings in the game, Clappier raced 27 and 42 yards, respectively. Unger made an extra point by a placement after Clappier's first touchdown. Veterans' Memorial Stadium had another closing-minute thrill when Reed raced 80 yards for a touchdown, and then scored the extra point for Schuylkill Haven.

S. lost to a veteran team of Lansford, 20-0, before 6,000 fans at Veterans' Memorial Stadium. Pottsville got off to a bad start after taking the opening kick-off. They tried a reverse and fumbled, but recov- ered deep in our own territory from where we punted out of danger, but Derby made a great run back. Pottsville High's line held for downs, but again was forced to punt out of danger with Derby taking the punt and racing to the 8-yard line, where after successive gains, Lukac scored from the 5-yard line. After intercepting a pass, Lans- ford marched 45 yards for a second touchdown, with Lukac scoring again. Sabol accounted for the extra points by placements. The closest P. H. S. came to scoring was in the second quarter with McGeoy and Palko carrying the ball, who were stopped on the 25-yard line. Then Lansford scored again in the third period, with Derby going over from the 7-yard line. Bartholomew and Macunas teamed up to stop Lansford's runners before making their last touchdown. Paul Minchoff kicked P. H. S. out of danger many times during the game. P. H. S. 12 Sunbury 19 P. H. S. lost a heartbreaker game to Sunbury before 3,500 thrilled fans. Sunbury won the game on a last-minute pass which was thrown from Viola to Bowers, the latter racing the remaining 10 yards. Sunbury scored first in the first period after recovering a fumble -by Palko, with Viola running 25 yards for a touchdown. P. H. S. came right back to march 68 yards on nine plays for a touchdown with Macunas scoring by the way of a triple reverse. Pottsville threatened in the second period with Clappier racing 68 yards to Sunbury's 13-yard line, only to lose the ball. In the third period, Sunbury's Viola scored again after his teammates recovered a fumble on our own 19-yard line. Lascala ran 45 yards to Sunbury's 30-yard line. From this point, the use of seven plays gave Pottsville another six-pointer, with Macunas carrying the ball again. After the kick-off, Sunbury scored its last-minute touchdown. After the night's game, Joe McGeoy and Len Macunas were elected co-captains. P. H. S. 7 Bethlehem 33 On Saturday afternoon, the 14-th of October, P. H. S. lost its second Big Fifteen Contest before 2,000 fans, who came prepared for rain. Bethlehem, after the opening kick-off, showed its strength by marching 67 yards on eight plays and converted the extra point. P. H. S., not to be outdone, came back after Lascala recovered a Bethlehem fumble on their own 28- yard line. From this point, Pottsville scored after a run by Reaves to the opponents' 2-yard line, from which Mc-- Geoy scored and Ward made the extra point. After the opening of the second period, Bethlehem marched 30 yards for its second touchdown with Merincovich scoring. Later in the same quarter, DeAngles broke loose on a 25-yard touchdown run for Bethlehem's third touch- down. Kostelink made three conversions by placements. Bethlehem scored once in the next two quarters. While Pottsville came close to scoring in the fourth quarter, a backfield in motion cost a lot of ground for Pottsville when on the 2-yard line of Bethlehem. 0,2184 P. H. S. 0 Easton 25 Pottsville High played its second away football game on Saturday, October 21, at Easton, before 2,000 rain-soaked fans. Easton scored early in the first period when Heilman returned a P.H. S. punt to our 24-yard line. Three plays later Heilman scored. After blocking a Pottsville punt, Easton found our line a stone wall. After Minchoff punted, Easton traveled for another score on eight plays with Heilman again scoring. The extra point was made by D'Huy- vetters. At the beginning of the second half, both teams punted to each other. Ten plays gave Easton another touchdown with Johnson scoring. P. H. S. made its best display during the third period, which saw Pottsville advancing to Eas- ton's 33-yard line, by runs of Laubach and a pass to Reaves. Easton scored again in the final period, after recovering a Pottsville fumble on our own 41-yard line. After a score of plays Levan scored the final point. P. H. S. 0 Allentown 28 P. H. S. lost its third straight game to a Lehigh Valley team by a 28-0 score, before 4,500 blanket-wrapped fans. Allentown's T-formation was baffled in the first half by P. H. S. defense. After Allentown drove to P.H. S.'s 16- yard line where the line recovered a fumble, Allentown, taking a P. H. S. punt on our own 45-yard line, marched to the 2-yard line, on only ten plays, and Kurtz scored from there on a line buck. Muhr made the extra point. Pottsville made its best showing by taking the ball to Allentown's 35-yard line by runs of McGeoy and Clap- pier. Clappier fumbled on the next play with Allentown recovering. Two long passes, Kurtz to Hartman, gave Allentown its second touchdown with Muhr making the extra point. , After an exchange of punts, Allentown received the ball on its own 45-yard line. A screen pass to Kurtz plus his 40-yard run, carried him to P. H. S.'s 15-yard line. Allentown scored on a pass from Kurtz to Hipple with a lateral to Fischel and the latter went over for the touchdown. In the last quarter a fumble by Pottsville, on its own 3-yard line, which was recovered by Allentown, gave the opponents their last score. P. H. S. 7 Lebanon 15 In a bitter-fought game, Lebanon High beat P. H. S. on November 3, at Veterans' Memorial Stadium before 3,500 fans. Fumbles lost the game for P. H. S. The opening kick-off found Pottsville fumbling and Lebanon recovering deep in Pottsville's territory. On their first play, Mason scored on a 36-yard run. Pottsville's line held twice in the second period for downs. After taking the ball on our own 5-yard line, Minch- off was trapped behind the goal line for a safety. In the third period, P. H. S. marched 55 yards to score their first touchdown, with McGeoy going over from the five. A pass to Palko scored the extra point. A fumble in the last quarter on the 12-yard line accounted for Mason's carrying the ball over for another Lebanon score. Cremia and Bartholomew played excellent ball for the line. Both players recovered fumbles of the opponent deep in our own territory. P. H. S. 0 Tamaqua 13 Pottsville High traveled to Tamaqua to be defeated by a veteran Blue and VVhite team before 3,500 fans, on the latter's muddy field. A fumble, deep in our own territory, during the second period gave Tamaqua the ball. On the first play, a pass from Homanick to Klein, gave Tamaqua their hrst touchdown. P. H. S.'s defensive playing throughout the game held Tamaqua deep in our own territory. The opponents scored in the last quarter with Homanick going over for another touchdown. The Crimson forward wall played heads-up ball, with their good line stands. Macunas, Bartholomew, Heffner, and Cremia, linemen, played brilliantly. I , k . - I l g -..M . ,. . ,,, ad, tu Q SSIYXJ P. H. S. 7 Hazleton 33 Pottsville completed their final home game with Hazleton at Veterans' Memorial Stadium before 3,500 fans. After playing an excellent first half which found Hazleton win ning by a 7-0 score, Pottsville High was on the tail end of hard luck which found Hazleton taking advantage to score 19 points in the third quarter. Pugliese scored on a 17-yard pass after Hazleton had driven 70 yards. Marcani scored from the 7-yard line after Hazleton took advantage of a poor P. H. S. punt. Again Hazleton scored when Russell recovered Marcani's fum- ble in the end zone. Pugliese scored for the second time when he plunged over from the 5-yard line. Pottsville's line held Hazleton very well, stopping the opponents on several goal-line drives. P. H. S. scored in the last period when Unger passed to Ward in the end zone. Palko made some good runs while Hoak matched DeNoia punt for punt. P. H. S. 6 Reading 0 Pottsville High defeated Reading on a Frank Marwell play when they beat Reading before 3,500 fans at Albright Stadium by the score of 6-0. Fumbles caused many worries to the followings of both schools. Reading fumbled when on Pottsville's 15-yard stripe with five seconds to go until half time. Pottsville fumbled on Reading's 5-yard line after a drive of 85 yards in the third period. Hoak and Tobias staged a punting duel in the second quarter with neither team being able to advance far until late in this quarter when Schaeffer intercepted a pass and raced to Pottsville's 15-yard line. Joe Farrone made a brilliant 37-yard run on the center play. Pottsville drove to Reading's 5-yard line where Pottsville fumbled. In the fourth quarter Minchoff lateraled to McGeoy who threw a 22-yard pass to Reeves, who after catching the pass, raced to Reading's 2-yard line. From this point of the game McGeoy scored the only touch- down. Later in the same quarter Pottsville was on the move to touchdown territory as the game ended.

Parents know what adolescents are made of, Chili on hot dogs, vanilla in cokes, Hilarious whooping at practical jokes. Movie-star hair-do's, strawberry lipstick, Precious connivings, swing music with hot licks. Phone conversations all night and all day, Dripping with Ulousyu-Hsay, kid - and Uokayfy Spine on the chair and feet on the table, Frothing debates on the merits of Gable. Football and grade cards and senior-class dues, Loud cries of horror at clean saddle-shoes. Allergic to sweeping out family garages, Lumber-jack shirts and gardenia corsages. Movies and popcorn and jitterbug jerkings, Hailing each other with, Hiyah, what's perking ? YVhat are adolescents made of, made of? The Lord only knows what theyyre made of! Summer-time hogging of local verandas, Acres of bracelets like Carmen Miraxidals. Agreeing that parents are middle-aged blights, Secret ambition: a drum majorette, Formals that daddy is paying on yet. Moods of hilarity followed by gloom, Pennants and posters all over his room. VViser, of course, than father or mother, Colossal disdain for that terrible kid brother. Allowances that melt with incredible speed, For recordings and everything else they don't need. A fine unconcern for dinners that waits, And dates, and Dates, and D.ATES, and DATES! Thatls what adolescents are made of. 25a as 1 J l 2 'S 3 EXPERIMENT X vyftff 108 lU9IYk.J .

VVC sincerely thank our advertisers for their help in making this book pos- sible. You certainly are worthy of the patronage of the student body of Pottsville High School. , I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I believe that every right implies a responsibilityj every opportunity, an obligationg every possession a duty. I believe that tlze law was made for nzan and not nzan for the law,' that government is the servant of the people and not their master. I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or handy that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to mahe a living. I believe that thrift is essential to well-ordered living and that eeon- omy is a prin1e requisite of a sound hnaneial strueture, whether in gov- ernment, business or personal affairs. I believe that truth and justiee are fundamental to an enduring soeial order. I believe in the saeredness of a promise, that a man's word should be as good as his bond, that char- aeter-not wealth or power or posi- tion-is of supreme worth. I believe that the rendering of useful serviee is the eomnzon duty of manbind and that only in the purifying fre of sacrifice is the dross of selhshness eonsumed and the greatness of the human soul set free. 1 believe in an all-wise and all-loving God, named by whatever name, and that the individual's highest fulfillment, greatest lzap- piness and widest usefulness are to be found in living in harmony with His lVill. I believe that love is the greatest thing in the worldj that it alone ean overeome hatej that right can and will triumph over might. From lllr. Rockefeller! speeeh over Radio, July 9, 1941.
