Many of our parents are employed here and perhaps some of us will be after graduation. In appreciation of what this factory has done for us and our school, we deem it only fitting and proper that we choose as the theme of the 112th edition of the Athenian, Industry on Parade depicting our school life with the activities of the Ingersoll Rand. Many departments are found in this plant. We have divided our yearbook into several sections with each one representing a certain division of the Rand. The first section is the Board of Directors, which contains the School Board of Athens Schools. Our General Manager and the Plant Manager, the principals, follow with the Accounting Department, their secretaries. The faculty is next in what we have termed the Engineering Department, in comparison with the Rand. Grades seven, eight, and nine were included in the Experimental Department because it is in this section that the success of the student as well as the product is determined. The Assembly Department houses the tenth and eleventh grades. Here the products are being prepared to enter the final stage of production. The Shipping Department, the home of the seniors for the last nine months of school, is the most important section of our plant. Examples are set and students are being prepared by the Engineers and sent out into the world. The curricular section is termed the Grinding Department because of the constant grinding a student has to do to achieve a fine rating. In Athens High School, as in the Rand, are many products presented for public consumption. Our many plays, publications of our magazine, the Teaogan and our Athenian are compared with the Christmas Party and other social functions of the Rand in the Production Department. The Mill and Drill Department contains our various music groups such as the Band, Mixed Chorus, and Triple Trio. Mill and drill signifies the constant drilling these groups do to obtain the perfection they have displayed in past performances. One of the interesting departments in our plant is the Smith Shop. In this shop are the outstanding athletic teams, coaches, managers, and cheerleaders. The products are typical of the smiths of old with their sinewy limbs and physical builds. The clubs in our Club House are similar to that of the Rand. Our theme Industry on Parade is excellent because recently the Ingersoll Rand held an Open House in honor of the fifty years of fine service it has given to the valley. Many of us took a well guided tour through the factory to see how the fine products are made. We have chosen the industrial theme for the 1953 edition of the Athenian with the hope of pleasing you, the subscriber of this yearbook. It is our sincere wish that you will find enjoyment in reading the many accomplishments of the class of 1953. 5 Our school, Athens High School, is situated on the fertile banks of the Susquehanna River, in Athens, Pennsylvania. It has won recognition throughout the country because of the many students who have graduated and made their marks in the world. In this school there are various organizations, classes, and clubs, corresponding to similar groups of the Ingersoll Rand. 6 To you, the Ingersoll Rand, we dedicate the 1953 edition of the Athenian in honor of all you have done to further the progress of our town, Athens. It is our sincere wish that your future years will be as successful as the fifty years of prosperity you have left behind you. 7 Top row-Richard Bowen, Dr. J. C.

Board of Directors The Board of Directors and the Joint Board of Athens School are made up of civic minded citizens of our town. They hold a very prominent place in our plant. They are responsible for the steady growth of the building program of our school district. It is their duty to see that the best possible education is offered to the students that attend Athens Schools. The duties of the Board of Directors in the Ingersoll Rand are similar to those in the School Board. They take care of the orders that come in and are shipped out, the maintenance of the plant, and the planning of its many activities. The Joint School Board is composed of members from Athens Township, Litchfield Township, and Athens Boro. 8 TO THE SENIORS OF 1953: Congratulations to you for dedicating our 1953 Athenian to our largest production plant, the Ingersoll-Rand. We are fortunate in having an industry the size and character of the Athens Plant in our town. Here many of our graduates find opportunities for success in their life's work. This year, Ingersoll-Rand commemorates fifty years of progress. Similarly, our Athenian marks one hundred and twelve years of production. Our senior high curriculum includes preparation in the fundamentals to meet the needs of this great plant. At Athens High School, we promote and develop in our students the desire for exactness through problems in mathematics, science and history. We rate as highest among us, the mind that is creative -- that sees possibilities unseen by others; that ventures confidently and effectively into the hitherto unknown. We allow for individual differences by exploration and guidance in giving each individual the opportunity to develop his skills and aptitudes according to his capacity. Education for worthwhile citizenship is a major purpose at Athens High School. The degree to which our students are willing to seek the mastery of knowledge, the acquisition of attitudes, the development of good habits, and the desire to assume responsibility and to cooperate will help determine their way of life for the future. Many jobs at Ingersoll call for exactness and precision. Creativeness and critical judgment have no doubt helped a great deal in the progress made in the last fifty years. Men willing to assume their share of responsibility and men who are willing to cooperate are contributors in this trail of progress. Certainly no industrial progress is possible without individual initiative. You, the seniors who graduate this year, have had these valuable experiences and opportunities during your school life. In the long run, you will profit by your own individual contributions which you make to industry and society. You have in your possession the fundamentals and pre-requisites for living in the future. You must use them and think, plan, and grow, so that the investment which your community has in you will benefit both you and your community. 9 MR. RICHARD BARTHOLOMEW Supervising Principal CLASS OF 1953: This year completed fifty years of achievement for the Ingersoll Rand Company, the mainstay in the economic life of our valley. Your yearbook staff has, very appropriately, used this notable event as its theme and has developed a parallel between the industry and high school education. May we develop a parallel beyond your graduation? We believe that the same basic elements which are necessary to produce notable success in an industry are also essential to make a life notably successful. I will list a few. First, an industry and a life must be able to recognize an essential need of humanity and plan to contribute to that need if lasting success is to crown their efforts. Secondly, they must build up confidence in their product by never offering shoddy and low grade workmanship. When the public is led to expect much from any person or industry by a glowing build up only to be duped by receiving something cheap or inferior, its confidence is destroyed and any advantage gained through such deceit can only be temporary at best. Thirdly, they must not be satisfied with things as they are but ever study to keep abreast of the times and to meet the ever changing needs of humanity with new and improved procedures. The education of an industry or an individual can never be considered as complete. Remember the ancient words of wisdom, This, too, shall change. Only by constant study and alertness can the successful crest of the waves of change be ridden and the trough of oblivion be avoided. Fourthly, immediate profits must not be the goal. Often the worthwhile profits are much enhanced by having been deferred until real value has been established and the services can be more highly appreciated. Believe with all your heart in what you are doing or don't do it. If the value to humanity is there, the appropriate reward will follow in due time. Other parallels might be drawn. We believe this will suffice for the present occasion. Our wishes for your continued success in the ways that are lasting are very sincere. MR. IRVING HAZARD High School Principal MR. RALPH HOPKINS 10 Mrs. Helen Southee, Secretary to Mr. Hazard; Mrs. Celia Arnold, Secretary to Mr. Bartholomew. Our school has its own accounting department. The work of this department is in the capable hands of Mrs. Southee, Mr. Hazard's secretary, and Mrs. Arnold, Mr. Bartholomew's secretary. The accounting department of Athens High resembles the payroll department of the Ingersoll Rand --they both make a definite contribution to the efficient operation of the industry . ll Department Mrs. Gracemary Alger ♦ Mr. Reed C.

Whereas the I. R. experimental section concerns machinery and tools, the Athens High section concerns Jr. High students; 7th, 8th, and 9th graders. New students coming to Athens High School from surrounding rural areas such as Litchfield, Milan, Ridgebury, and Wil- awana are confronted with many changes. It is here, in the 7th grade, that the experimentation begins. The students meet an entirely different course of study such as going to assembly, joining clubs, playing sports, changing rooms for each class, and becoming acquainted with the teachers. Here they receive an introduction to the experiment section. They may join in Serenaders, Chorus. Variety, Science, Art, Nature. Photography, and Leadership clubs. The eighth graders, having become accustomed to and acquainted with the many curricular and extra-curricular activities, begin to lose some of their shyness and become better acquainted with their classmates. The ninth grade is the last stage of the experimental section. They spend the school year reviewing subjects taught to them since 1st grade. They busily make preparations for rh morse they are to follow in Senior High school. Eighth TOP ROW--L. to R.--B. Zulkosky.R. Van Gaasbeck.D. Shadduck.B. Ryder,;. Patterson, M Randall . Scott W.

The Students now take an active part in the government and activities of the high school. The students have elected as their representatives in Student Council, Sylvia Hugo, Jeanne Soloman, Earl Carney, and Melvin Cowher. Our Sophomore girls join the Tri-Hi-Y, and if they are lucky enough, Miss Wood’s Triple Trio. We are fortunate in having three from our class, Alice Palmer, Lucille Gardner, and Barbara Casselbury in this organization. This year our Sophomore boys join the Hi-Y and Mr. Bresee’s Boys' Chorus, and many of the students join the Senior High Mixed Chorus. Among our Sophomore Class members, are two lettermen, one a veteran from his Freshman year, John Goble, and Nick Neily, our new letterman. We also have three varsity cheerleaders, Judy Canfield, Sylvia Hugo, and Mickie Cohen, a Majorette, Jeanne Soloman, and several Band members. We feel that our Sophomore year had been useful, helpful, and entertaining to us. We are proud of our class officers, and our Student Council representatives and feel that they did a good job this year. We Sophomores are certainly looking ahead to our Junior and Senior years and hope to emerge truly finished products.

In working our way up the line many, incidents have helped us achieve this goal. Our homeroom advisers are Mr. Martin, Mrs. Clark, Mr. Dill and Miss O'Neal. With this help, we organized our homeroom programs. We began thinking about candidates for the vice-president of the high school and class officers as election time drew near. Following the democratic method of election in the assembly line, we finally elected these officers. In the factory the junior class was well represented. We belonged to the Triple Trio, Boys Chorus, Mixed Chorus, Spanish Club, Latin Club, Tri-Hi-Y, Discussion Club, Dramatic Club,Girls' Athletic Club, Future Farmers of America and Future Homemakers of America. For our boys who earned their letters, there was the Pigskin Chasers. Our lettermen are: Bill Carpenter, Dick Jones, Lou Babcock, Pete Steele, Bob Baker, Karl Chandler, Wilson Orshall, Ronald Carmer, Ronald Martin, Philip Gable, Warren Smith and John Hunt. Our cheerleaders are Peggy Brown and Ann Vallilee. We have thirteen members in the band lead by our majorettes, Joan Hoffman, Sylvia Fisk, Pat Coyle and Roberta Thorpe. Some of us found time to work on the Teaogan, Athenian Staff or the Evening Times. Last, but far from least, we have squeezed our studies in between some extra-curricular activities of the factory. As the end of the school year neared we relized two important duties yet to be done. The ushers had to be selected and the auditorium decorated for commencement. It has been traditional for the juniors to do this. As we take a backward look at the things we have done in the past years, we hope we have set an excellent example for the underclassmen in the factory to follow. We have only a few months of school remaining before us. In these few months, we will do our best to support school sponsored activities and functions. This has been one of the most important years of our life, and as the end draws near, we realize that our next one will be the decisive one. We will leave to the class of 1955 and others in the factory to follow, the heritage we have done our best to uphold in the Factory of Athens High School.

With a few months of school ahead of us, we found ourselves in the Shipping Department. During our days in the Experimental Department we worked very diligently to achieve recognition from the upperclassmen. Then we were admitted into the Assembly Department, our first taste of Senior High School life. In our Junior year we proved that we were ready to take the Seniors' places in the Shipping Department. We presented the Prom, our play Cheaper by the Dozen and selected a vice president of the school. As Seniors, we entered the Shipping Department located in Room 217 and 218. Our homeroom Engineers were Miss Bean and Mrs. Alger. Adjustments were made here and there as we were being prepared for the final packaging and shipping. As we gaze through the many enjoyable years in the Departments of Athens High School, we are sure that the example we set is a favorable one. We will leave a challenge to our followers to do as well or better than we, the Class of 1953, have done in making our undertakings successful. We will long remember the Shipping Day of the Class of 1953. SITTING Left to Right: Doris Ann Palmer, Yvonne Kinsman STANDING Left to Right: Robert Mitchell, Wesley Bourdette 36 1.

The students begin by learning the bare essentials of good writing and speech. As they progress toward the Assembly Line, they are taught the more technical points, such as correct spelling, punctuation, and pronunciation. When they travel nearer to their destination, they are given training in good reading, proper expression, and help in choosing their future vocation. Our students, when they graduate from the Shipping Department, will have acquired information from the English Department that will aid them in every walk of life. 62 Social Studies The Social Studies Department plays an important part in our factory. The workers are introduced to Social Studies in the third and fourth years. As they progress and go into the seventh and eighth grades, they learn more about the geography of the world and the history of Europe and Asia. Upon entering the ninth grade, the pupils take a course in Civics and Pennsylvania History. Still progressing they come to their junior and senior years where current events play a very important role. The students also learn to interpret the facts that they have already been taught in earlier grades. To help them they have special reports and projects which they work on in groups. 63 Math One of the most important subjects found in the Grinding Department of Athens High School is mathematics. This covers many branches from simple addition to the complicated problems of trigonometry. Mathematics is started in the first grade and continues through high school. Arithmetic as it is called in the grades starts with simple addition and subtraction which are the foundation for multiplication, division .decimals, and fractions. When a student enters junior high, he begins preparing for the higher mathematics offered in senior high school. There are many mathematical subjects which a student can take in high school such as business arithmetic, algebra, plane geometry, solid geometry, and trigonometry. Algebra is the simplest and is the base for all the rest. Any person who plans to go to college should take some mathematics especially if he is going to be an engineer or doctor. In November when the sophomores are seen around the halls with pale green expressions on their faces, an epidemic hasn't broken out; they 're just getting their first taste of rugged biology which involves dissecting everything from blood cells to toads. Biology is a study of plants, animals, and human beings, all combined to form one of the most interesting courses offered. Science Chemistry deals with changes, both physical and chemical, of materials and the study of molecules and and atoms. From the chemical lab often drift the most peculiar odors! But students find it interesting to combine such gases as hydrogen and oxygen and come up with such a common substance as H2O, or water. Chemistry students for the last two years have taken a trip to Corning Glass Works. Physics is a detailed study of electricity. sound, heat, energy, mechanics, and numerous other fields. Vocational Science is another subject offered in the science department. 65 Spanish There are two divisions to the Spanish course and they are first year and second year Spanish conducted by Mrs. Volechenisky. First year Spanish deals mostly with verbs and vocabulary while second year Spanish reads and discusses foreign countries. In this course, the students not only learn grammar, but also quite a bit about Spanish speaking countries and their customs. Quite often, on holidays, one of the classes has a pinata , which is a Spanish game. Usually students taking this subject correspond with some boy or girl in South America or Spain. Often Spanish magazines oi newspapers are sent which prove to be of interest. For those who intend to further their education in many fields, Latin is a necessity in the Grinding room. All apprentices start with Latin 1 and throughtout the first year they learn the fundamentals. The second year, apprentices take up more specialized work. They study about Roman authors, customs, and ideas. Latin Library Our library in Athens High School is something everyone can well be proud of. Under the competent supervision of Miss Lois Wrisley, the library is run very efficiently. A11 types of reference books are available to the students besides many novels, biographies, and a wide variety of current magazines. Miss Wrisley also conducts an orientation class for the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades at the beginning of the year. This is to familiarize the students with the reference aids of the library; such as the files, readers guide, encyclopedias, etc. These classes are a great help to the junior high school because of the speed and ease with which they find material for school work. M Music Two types of music classes are now being taught in Athens High School. Under the directions of Miss Emma Wood general music classes are conducted in junior high school. Various phases of music such as the studying of musical instruments, famous composers, current musical artists, and singing are included in their daily programs. Under the direction of Mr. Ernest Rolston classes are conducted daily. These music classes include students who are interested in becoming orchestra or band members. Band students are also included in these classes to improve all parts of the band. Advanced students make up an ensemble which plays for community activities as well as providing for school entertainment. Art Have you ever wondered who decorates the bulletin boards ? This is the work of the art class of junior and senior high under the leadership of Miss Myers. In junior high, the students are introduced to art and its many branches. Senior high students have just recently formed their own art class to further their knowledge of art. Many of these students enter their posters in various contests. They also decorate the bulletin board in the hall to the gym with drawings which coincide with the seasons. 67 Commercial Under Mr. Martin they learn business arithmetic, bookkeeping, and commercial law not only from text books but from field trips to various establishments. In these classes the proper way to use the business machines, present in the class room, are learned to help in the aid of solving many computations. The Commercial course in our high school consists of many subjects useful to students entering the business field. In various classes they are taught the procedures necessary to make any business a success. In the past two years new subjects and schedules have been added to help the students. In Miss O'Neal's classes shorthand and typing along with the correct use of office machines are taught to a large majority of students. Class periods are conducted to prove of interest as well as to be educational. Many girls subscribe to a business magazine which is read in class as entertaining material as well as class work. 68 Home Economics The home economics classes are classes spent in preparing a girl for married life. Twelve weeks are spent on serving, nine weeks on cooking, and fifteen on grooming, manners, appearance, etc. It is a required course for junior high and an elective for senior high girls. Agriculture In the agriculture course high school boys study different methods and ideas of farming. They learn about dairying, forestry, farm management, poultry raising, and many other things. Every year the Pennsylvania State Farm Show, which the agriculture classes usually attend, is held in Harrisburg. It is the largest of this kind in the state, and it has a high educational value to those who attend. Shop In our newly painted shop are two new machines, the jointer and the grinder. Besides these are new and useful hand tools. The shop classes, under the watchful supervision of Mr. Riker, make many wood, metal, and electric devices. It is a required class for junior high, but for senior high boys, an elective. S9 Gym and Health Boys health is taught in ninth and twelfth grades by Mr. Oakes. There is a small library of differnet film-strips which are shown in these classes according to the topic which is being studied. Boys'gym classes are also taught by Mr. Oakes. Here among other things, boys learn the fundamentals of basketball. In these classes the boys are divided up into different groups, according to their ability, and practice from these groups. All freshmen and senior girls are required to take health twice a week. In these health classes, the girls are taught first aid and body structure; this instruction helps each girl to become conscious of good-grooming and living with others successfully. Physical education is required from seventh through twelfth grades. Here the girls learn the techniques of basketball, volleyball and tumbling. Both of these courses are taught by Mrs. Koons. t 70 71 Athenian Staff With the opening of school this fall came the usual rush and flurry of meeting the first Athenian deadline. We’ll never make it, was the common cry. Copy and pictures were flying all over the room 218. Much to everyone’s surprise the deadline was met with two days to spare. As in the Ingersoll Rand, things must be assembled carefully in order to become a fine product, worthy of praise. We followed this method in preparing our yearbook for publication.

Robert Bourdette, to assemble the yearbook. Under the skilled direction of Miss Bean and Mrs. Alger, our advisors, the final deadline was finally met. As we ponder over the year’s work, we feel sure that the Athenian will recall for everyone their many happy days spent in Athens High School.

Teaogan Staff In the Production Department is found the high school magazine, the Teaogan. The Teaogan began as a junior class publication but it has expanded to include all those with literary or artistic ability from both junior and senior high school. The only thing a student has to do to become a member of the staff is to write an original theme. Mr. Bresee examines the theme and if it is acceptable, he will become a member of the staff and remain on it as long as he contributes worthy articles. Sometimes a theme written for English homework is chosen to be published. The editorial staff, this year, is composed of Editor-in-chief, Charles Thurston and Assistant editor, Ernest Williams. Miss O’Neal, commercial teacher, and Mr. Bresee, English teacher, are the competent advisers of the Teaogan, now in its seventh year of publication. It has won many prizes in various scholastic press conferences and has become a favorite among the students. It is published on the average of three times a school year. Fall, Winter, and Spring. In the Teaogan you will find a complete coverage of all the sports activities of the school, various short stories, and interesting humor column, a complete coverage of all music activities, plus a special ’’Sharp and Flats” column done by a music student of our school, the editorials, and the comic calendar. In general, it covers everything of interest about our school and so meets the various tastes of everyone in our school. 76 Junior Play The junior play this year, chosen to be presented was Room for One More , a comedy, adapted from the book by Anna Perrott Rose Wright. The play told the family life of the Rose'sand how they continue adopting stray children into their happy, lovable home, the Pumpkin Shell. Like all families, they had their happy moments and the sad ones followed by common hardships. Their answers to these problems make an enjoyable play accepted with delight by everyone. Leading the cast was Mother, a quiet, thoroughly lovable woman played by Peggy Lynch; Poppy, Bob Bourdette, a gentle humorous man who shows a deep love for his five children. Joey and Jimmy-John portrayed by Warren Smith and Lee Thompson are the adopted sons who keep the play moving as they heckle their sisters. Trot, Teensie, and Janey, played by Marlea Maryott, Marjorie Rogers, and Carol Jones. The three sisters are close in their relationships as they prove their love throughout the play. Outside the family are many close friends, such as the Biddle family, consisting of the mother, Mary Jane Rhoads; George, Jerry Cahill; and Betty, Jane Stroud, who is destined to become one of the Rose's. The welfare worker. Miss Winston, played by Sandra Brinkly, and the woman rescued by Janey, portrayed by Judy Moore, are two associates of the Rose's but not considered of the friendliest type. The play, directed by Mrs. Volechinesky, was another A.H.S. success. JUNIOR PLAY STANDING--S. Brinkley. J. Cahill, P. Lynch. SEATED--M. Rogers, J. Stroud, W. Smith, R. Bourdette, M. Maryott, C.

Senior Play The play Our Town by Thorton Wilder, presented by the senior class, was strange because it required great use of the imagination. The stage manager acts as narrator, telling the trials and tribulations of the families. The cast was chosen as follows; Stage manager, Bruce Ward; Dr. Gibbs, the town doctor, Dick Koons; his wife, Ella Johnson; Mr. Webb, the editor of the local paper, Paul Shores; his wife, Pauline Schoonover; the Gibbs children George and Rebecca, Wayne Cahill and Mary Lambert; the Webb children Emily and Wally.

The romantic theme was A Trip to Dreamland. The famous, funny endmen, (George Whyte, Jack Storelli, Elwin Fraley, and Phil Horton) came on stage singing in their Southern dialect Are You From Dixie? Then, of course, we all looked forward to the entrance of the premier endmen, (Dick Jackson and Duane Barber) who sang the popular song Down Yonder. Several acts receiving encores were; Jim McNeil and Lou Corl dressed as a hillbilly boy and girl singing Hey, Good Looking’ ; George Whyte imitating Jerry Lewis in his But, I Love Girls ; Rollie Hannon, AHS’ wonderful saxaphone player, received an encore when he played Margie ; and the Rhoads sisters (Esther and Mary Jane) received an encore for their beautiful harmony in Poor Whipoorwill . Several senior girls put on a delightful tap routine to the music Did You Ever See a Dream Walk- ing? . Joan Tracy, acting as several different types and nationalities of persons, entertained the audience with a monologue entitled Hats . Don Preston and Peggy Brown; Gordon Robinson and Carol Jones; Bob Ryder and Ann Donlin; and Ron Merrill and Mary Lambert enacted the famous song for us, An Old Fashioned Walk. One of the most touching acts was the football clock which has a member of our undefeated football team at each hour on the clock. The song Mr. Touchdown was sung in dedication to them by the chorus. At last the moment had come that we had all been waiting for--the crowning of the Athens High School queen. The Queen's Court presented an unforgettable scene. Beverly Dunbar crowned our beautiful queen Joan Tracy. Ken Avery sang the Oieen's song You're the Lovliest Girl of the Year. Another minstrel was completed! But we all looked forward, with great anticipation, to another Minstrel Show. 79 MILL STANDING: D. McKeel, S. Fisk, P. Coyle, G. VanWormer, S. McKeel, S. Vanderpool, M. Nichols, B. Bailey, B.

The high school band is the only band in Athens at the present time and its chief aim is to entertain and develop an appreciation of worth-while music. This year we regret the loss, to our band, of the following seniors and to them we wish Godspeed: Eugene John- son, George Furman, Leon Arnold, cornet players: George Havens, clarinet; Doris Palmer, bell lyre; Tim Brennan, alto saxaphone; Mary Ann Zulkosky, baritone; Donna McKeel, head majorette; Avis Kinsman and Mary Hoffman, color guards. 81 STANDING: .

Three of these clubs are the Triple Trio, the Boys Chorus, and the Serenaders. Although none of these clubs are new to us, we look forward to hearing them each year. The Triple Trio is composed of nine girls, singing alto, second soprano, and soprano. The girls chosen for this club must have real singing ability. Under the instruction of Miss Wood, the Triple Trio sings over the radio, at assemblies, special programs, and outside organizations such as the Rotary. The Boys Octet, supervised by Mr. Clyde Bresee, sings three-part harmony. This is a senior high musical organization which you have heard sing in assembly. You have often heard this group sing our Alma Mater at the opening of our programs over WATS. Then there are the Serenaders. This is a junior high group in which there are twenty members. These girls, like the Triple Trio, are especially chosen by their director, Miss Emma Wood. Singing alto, second soprano, and soprano, these girls appear on the radio, in our assemblies, and at special programs. Each year these young talented girls make an appearance at a town organization called the Eastern Star. A lot of time and hard work go into these organizations. We are, indeed, deeply grateful to our two capable choral leaders. Miss Wood and Mr. Bresee, for their time spent in making all our musical programs a success. R? MIXED CHORUS TOP ROW, L. TO R.: D.

As we sit and gaze over our year in the Athens High School Band many enjoyable memories will pass through our minds. Probably the most memorable day was the day we played with the band for the first time. Mr. Dante Coccagnia was our leader then. Many times we were told to play even if we could play nothing but blue notes. In our junior year a new, very talented, and well-like music teacher joined the faculty. Under Mr. Rolston's direction the band began to look and act differently. New uniforms were purchased which made us one of the snappiest looking aggregations in this section. Our first concert under Mr. Rolston was a tremendous success. As our playing ability improved, we were sent to Music Festivals to represent our school. Gene Johnson, Leon Arnold, Tim Brennan, George Furman, and George Havens represented the Band in the Bradford County Music Festival at Towanda. Mary Ann Zulkosky represented us at the Northeastern District Band Festival at Stroudsburg. The Brass Sextette was formed with our outstanding players in the brass sections taking part in it. We performed at plays and for other different or-izations of our town. Farewell to our many football trips, our concerts which we worked so diligently to present, our daily practices, and so many other wonderful memories that we will always hold dear to us. Farewell to Mr. Rolston and our wonderful Athens High School Band. BRASS ENSEMBLE LEFT TO RIGHT: E. Johnson, D. Klinko, D. Clark, M. Zulkosky, J. Fairlie, J. Hugo. 88 STANDING LEFT TO RIGHT: D.

It started with a few band members getting together after school and evenings. Later on Mr. Ralston gave his assistance and it developed into a good organization, playing for small parties. The main purpose is to play popular music for fun but while doing this, the members are learning different forms of music. Watch this organization go! 89 Pigskin Chasers TOP ROW -- L. to R. — W.

In the clubhouse at A. H. S., perhaps the oldest and most reputable club is the Pigskin Chasers. It was one of the first clubs to be founded at Athens and has kept up its traditions from the beginning. Only Varsity Lettermen are members, those who have earned the right to wear the Blue and White sweaters with the block A , but before they are members they must go through that fatal day of initiation, where they must do everything they are told by older members. Anyone who has seen this initiation does not question the candidates right to belong to the Chasers . To raise money to pay for the sweaters they sell the traditional Waverly-Athens game booklet and throughout the football season they sell programs. The club is under the supervision of Coach Childs. President of the club is Richard Johnston; Vice-President, Don Hunt; Secretary-Henry Hammond; Treasurer - Kenneth Kitchen; Sergeant - at-Arms-Robert Perry. Wrestling TOP ROW Standing -- L. to R. — C.

Junior High Athletic Club In junior high ask any student what his favorite club is, chances are his answer will be the Junior High Athletic Club. The club is a favorite because it teaches members how to understand athletic games whether he is a spectator or on a team. If you should drop in on the club in May, they would be discussing the finer points of baseball, the rules and regulations. If it should be September diagrams of football plays would be on a blackboard or they would be trying to understand what a referee means when he throws his hand around. Basketball is another sport discussed. These are the reasons why this club is a favorite. Sportmanship is taught effectively. No one can doubt that Athens will continue to produce good athletic teams as long as the Junior High Athletic Club exists. 9? g.a.c. TOP ROW, L. TO R.: L. Gardner, P. Molyneaux, J. Stroud, M.

The Girls' Athletic Club, known as the G. A. C. to most students, is organized for the benefit of senior high girls interested in participating in sports activities. During the school term the girls must attain five-hundred points by participating in the various sports, attend two-thirds of the meetings, and pay their dues in order to receive an award letter. The seniors receive a medal with the G. A. C. insignia. The officers for the year 1952-53 are: President, Shirley Keir; Vice-President, Marlea Maryott; Secretary, Suzie Southee; Treasurer, Marlene Newbury; Recording Secretary, Donna Lupton. G.A.C.

This interest is started in the fifth and sixth grade nature classes where students learn about the many different kinds of bird, animal, and plant life. For further knowledge they can join the Junior High Nature Club where they are given lectures by their leaders and members of the club. The club is also taken on hikes where members can collect first hand information from Mother Nature. We owe a great deal to the leaders of this fine club for the splendid job they are doing in teaching their members about the game laws and the laws of nature. 95 Latin Club e c coons. R.

Operators Visual Aids Club In our school one of the most important groups to us is the public address operators. This group is composed of sophomores, juniors, and seniors alike. Mr. Hazard teaches the students how to run the system. The fourteen members of this organization have learned to manage this difficult task with ease. Besides receiving calls from Mr. Hazard and Mr. Bartholomew, these boys and girls also put through necessary announcements to the entire high school. Although recently installed, the public address system renders a great service to us, as do the members who are in charge of the system during their free periods. This year, a Visual Aids Club was formed by Mr. Max Slick. The members of this group set up the equipment for movies and slides. The boys are taught the proper care of the equipment as well as how to run the projector and slide. This club plays a very important role in our school life. The movies shown to us through the service of this club, help us to secure a better understanding of history, geography, and so forth. The capable officers of this organization are: President -- Robert Mul- lens; Vice president -- Donald Hunt; and Secretary-Treasurer -- Jerome Cahill. VISUAL AIDS CLUB STANDING: B. Cost on. J.

Student Council The Student Council is one of the most important members in the Clubhouse. The present Council was organized twelve years ago by the school's principal, Mr. Hazard, but there has been for three and a half decades some form of student government in Athens High. Council members are chosen by their NINTH GRADE REPRESENTATIVES OF STUDENT COUNCIL STANDING L. to R.: J. Fairlie, B. Ryenolds. SEATED: J. Parmenter, C.

Each class in senior high has four representatives in this governing body -- two girls and two boys. A welcome addition to the group this year were auditors from the ninth grades. These representatives, William Reynolds, John Fairlie, Carolyn Lupton, and Joan Parmenter, have no voting power but they do contribute to the discussion. The council, under the able supervision of its adviser, Mr. Bresee and President Mary Lambert, meets every Tuesday and busily studies problems concerning the school and students. It learns to solve these problems democratically and gets experience in government by doing so. Secretary Avis Kinsman keeps the record of each meeting. Following each gathering the president reports to the student body of the high school over the Public Address System. Members absent are mentioned by her also and, in this way, there are not many absentees. Thus, the Council's work is more efficiently accomplished. 98 SENIOR HIGH SCIENCE CLUB STANDING: W. Wright, S.

Senior High School Science Club How much do you really know about the weather, about chemistry, about atoms? Out of students' interests in these and other fields has been born a new club, the Senior High Science Club. The club was started by Mr. Pruyne and George Havens was chosen as president. The group is made up of juniors and seniors. The purpose of the club is to learn more about certain fields of science. Each member chooses a project and works on it until it is completed. Projects chosen were rockets, chemical experiments, radio, electricity, and weather. Projects may be worked on on regular club day or any time a member is free to work on it. The club to raise money for its trip, has put on many activities throughout the year. Even though it is a new club, it has prospects of being one of the best organizations in the clubhouse. 99 TOP ROW--L. to R.--A. Bydaitk.C. Rogers, R. Hadlock, G. Leahy, L. Babcock, J. Callear.

This club is efficiently run by the president -- Frances Avery; Vice-president -- Barbara Campbell; Secretary -- Marilyn Campbell; and Treasurer -- Verna Smith. For their project this year, the girls made themselves jackets. Because the club colors are red and white, the jackets are those colors. A few of the things which are accomplished during the year are cooking, sewing, holding a party once a month, and an annual mother-daughter banquet. Every year at Christmas time, the members make the halls cheery by plac-ing a Christmas tree at one end of the hall. 101 Tri-Hi-Y TRI-HI-Y OFFICERS Left to Right: E. Lynch, L. Munn, M. Rhodes, P.

The Junior High Model-Making Club The Junior High Model-Making Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Riker, has been in existence since last year. It now consists of seventeen up-and-coming engineers, boys from seventh to ninth grades. They make models of boats, racers, and airplanes. But maybe this isn't all they get from model building. With the many intricate operations concerned in assembling an airplane, the young model builder acquires a steady hand and a sharp eye. In a group of boys with a common interest, a fellow gains a lot by exchanging ideas with others. Even deeper than this, he learns the satisfaction of work well done, even when the novelty of the job might be gone. MODEL-MAKING CLUB STANDING-J. May, D. Hunt, R. Warner, Mr. Riker, A. Forrest, R.

Not only drawing and painting, but sculpturing and many other fields related to art are studied by these students. They are allowed to do whatever they want in meetings, and their progress has certainly proved their ability. The Art Club members are often called upon to make posters and ads for school functions. Indeed a valuable organization is A. H. S.' ArtClub. Junior High Dramatics The Junior High Dramatic Club is composed of students interested in furthering their knowledge in the dramatic field. These students learn the proper use of stage vocabulary, speech, and stage effects. The students have a chance to show their talent by broadcasting over the public address system and taking charge of junior high assemblies. They are sure to accomplish a part for senior high dramatics in the future. Mrs. Volechinesky, a confident overseer, also teaches others who have study halls and cannot find it possible to be in the club activities. DRAMATICS CLUB BACK ROW: K. Kier, E. Harding, M. Lupton, M.

To the average person attending the games, they are just a few girls who lead the cheers and have a good time doing it. About twenty girls try out for this honor each fall; then, after careful screening, five and one substitute are selected by the judges. To be a cheerleader a girl must be alert, quick on her feet, peppy, and have a strong speaking voice. She must be willing to spend many hours outside of school drilling and practicing the cheers over and over. A strenuous task indeed. The J. V. Cheerleaders write their own cheers to be used exclusively by the J. V. teams, and in this way show a great deal of originality. Only those possessed of a strong school spirit would be willing to give so much of themselves to their Alma Mater and for the cheerleaders themselves we offer a Cheer of Praise. This year the following girls donned the uniform of blue and white and urged our teams onward to victory: Catherine Sackett, Peggy Lynch, Jeannette Roberts, Nancy Casselbury, Janice Vallilee and substitute Donna Shadduck.

Newly organized the year before, Athens athletes showed remarkable ability. Getting off to a good start one cool day in April, Athens won from Waverly by a score of 68 l 2 to 40 l 2. The rest of the meets followed more or less the same example, Athens winning from Elkland, Sayre, Williamsport, Owego, and Kulpmont. We also won the seven school sectional track meet and won the mile relay at the Elmira Relay Carnival. The Bradford County meet that was held in Athens was conducted on the individual participant basis rather than on the school team basis. Two hundred ninety four entries from eleven different schools participated, with Athens dominating the meet. In the PIAA District 4 Class B Championship, Athens again won by a large margin. As the final of all the meets, nineteen boys were entered in the state PIAA meet at Pen State. They were: D. Jackson, H. Eike, G. Hunsinger, W. Orshal, W. Smith, D. Callear, H. Hammond, D. Crandall, T. Munn, B. Ryder, D. Johnston, D. Hunt, R. Carmer, P. Steele, P. Gable, E. Geiger, E. Fraley, J. Goble. The boys did a wonderful job, placing second in Class B competition, by scoring 14 points. The mile relay team took first place in their heat. A gold plague was presented to John Childs for A. H. S. On its face is the Pennsylvania Relay Medal, showing Benjamin Franklin awarding medals to winning athletes, the year and event are indicated. 15 Cafeteria In serving lunch for A. H. S. students the workers in our school cafeteria have been doing a great job. For the last four years the cafeteria has been serving from two hundred to two hundred fifty students a day. The meals, planned according to the National School Lunch Act, are prepared by Mrs. Hammond, Mrs. Knecht, and Mrs. Parke. Students are hired to help with the cleaning, sweeping, and washing dishes that is associated with a cafeteria. We appreciate the job they are doing, so we say hats off and three cheers for our school cafeteria. CAFETERIA Left to right: Mrs. Hammond;Mrs. Knecht; Mrs. Park. CAFETERIA BACK ROW: S. Knecht, R.

Few of us realize what a tremendous task it is to keep our school running. Added to the other endless tasks of these three Charlie and Ernie also help construct sets for plays. Hats off to these diligent workers. MAINTENANCE Charles Thorp MAINTENANCE Ernest Thorp 117 ) ud ulhj C l2wusled j Jfie jXith(ma je .dotoH nnewAcuiti cwc jtLun Jhixrasid TRtAsbwCj ($tle uAin 0.
