Berkeley Springs 1 ligh, a school in a small town, that has achieved great things, a never dying spirit in those who uphold our name on the athletic field, and those who strive to make us better students. When we walk past the old school in future years there will he a longing in our hearts for those old school days. The object of this book has been to record on pages of everlasting memory the activities and achievements of the happiest years of our lives, school years. Not especially for what pleasure may be derived this year, but in future- years to come : we hope to turn the pages of our 1950 Annual, and once more live over the memories of our school days in Berkeley Springs High.

A successful season of “morale building” and fun was again completed by the cheerleaders; this year under the able coaching of Miss Harris. The girls set out to devise a new system of choosing cheerleaders which would he fair to all and free of criticism, and largely through the efforts of their coach managed to find a wajtf I)Se to increased favorable condi- tion of dfiving fhe cheerleaders were able to journey to a good proportion of the away bas- ketball games. It is hoped that as many im- provements as were contributed this year will be made in the years to come. SENIOR LETTERMEN Jean Hottel We’ll he losing our highest scorer this year when that rough and tough Happy” graduates. Glrnna Wills “Willie”—our best guard who is always in there fighting for the hall and usually gets it. Bruee McCoy A glue-fingered end who could always be depended upon to catch a pass. Warren Buzzerd “Buz” played left tackle and could always do a good job of filling up the hole. Chester Shade “Chet” could really burn up the field when- ever he carried the hall. George Michael An outfielder who really knew how to burn up the field to catch a ball. George White ()ur pitcher who really threw those curves just to show who was boss. Robert Yost “Greely” our second baseman who gave runners the “second base blues.” Charles Anderson “Andy”—our shortstop who was glue fin- gered to the ball always. Richard Michael The pride and joy of our outfield—his catches and sportsmanship can’t be beat. Wilbert Long A small, but fast and flashy back, who flits on feathery feet and hits like a torpedo.

The team participated in several invitational meets. They were at l landlev, St. James. Martinsburg. Hedgesville, Winchester and on the local field. Hedgesville and Berkeley Springs track teams met on the local’s field and held a meet between the two schools which was the first track meet of any kind to he held at this school for a number of years.

Hher schools were visited to see how the Student body functioned. An election was held and the students voted overwhelmingly to have student government in the school. At the end of the school year, the students may submit by petition, candidates for the office of president and vice-president and voted on them by ballot. After the president and vice-president were elected, the representatives, two from each home room were chosen by the same popular ballot method as was used for the election of the officers of the council. Miss Davis, Mr. Hall and Mr. I.udwig were the Council’s faculty representatives for the year 1949-50. The objective of the Student Council has been to give the students an active part in the school activities, let them express their ideals and opinions. Meetings were held each Monday morning. The council has arranged many noontime activities for all of the students. Committees were chosen by the president to see that the noon- time recreation program is carried out. During the noontime, dancing is held in one of the class rooms on the first floor for those interested. Basketball games are held every day in the gymnasium by different classes during the season. This not only furnishes enjoyment for the students but helps to develop basketball players. While the weather is nice, many students get together and form a football or baseball game for their own enjoyment. Occasionally movies are shown in the auditorium. These movies are both educational and interesting. Another class room is open to those students who prefer games such as checkers, dominoes and caroms. Our Student Council has been so successful that the Daily Mail news- paper published pictures showing our noontime activities. This year the Student Council made up a set of rtdes for the students to follow, kept the gym floor clean and held locker inspections. In the future the Student Council will continue to progress the noon- time activities, and will become a valuable asset to the school.

Some of our students qualified for the Masque and Gavel membership by taking part in class plays, assembly pro- grams, and radio programs. Another of these activities was the sponsorship of the literary contests in which many of our members participated and several won high honors. Given this year for the first time was the Masque and Gavel Award to a student in the school who was the most outstanding in English. This award was presented Graduation night to a Senior, Louise Rosenberg. The club also enjoyed several get-together parties during the school year.

It was organized September 9, 1947 by Mr. Lewis. The purpose of the club is to help the students to realize what is going on between nations. The club invites people from the town and well-known professors to their meeting to study and discuss problems of world interest and influence. '1 he need was felt to have all those who plan to continue their education meet and study together the various shades of opinion which go to make up our government. With the help of everyone in the club we hope to have a better understanding and appreciation of the many problems which influence our every day living.

Under the direction of Warren W. Clark they have attained a number of awards and high ratings. They carried away first place honors for high school bands in a contest at the Mountain State Forest Festival at Elkins. They participated in the Tri-State Festival held in Martinsburg, and returned with well-earned superior ratings in concert audition, marching, and maneuvering. This year, for the first time. Morgan County was represented by two bands at the Apple Blossom Fes- tival, our newly organized Junior Band participating in the event. On Memorial Day. the band played for the dedication of the War Memorial Hospital, then motored to Sharpsburg. Maryland, where they won second place in the grand feature parade. In addition to these events, the band has played for assemblies, football games, parades, the Junior and Senior plays, PTA meetings, as well as. the Morgan County Annual Spring Festival. Behind showmanship and amusement the band realizes the real value of foundation music study, showmanship being merely incidental to better band playing.

BOYS' CHORUS AND MIXED CHORUS Continuing in her efforts to enlarge the number of students par- ticipating in vocal music in the high school, Mrs. Conley lias organized a high school Boys’ Chorus and a Mixed Chorus. Pile Boys’ Chorus of 24 members proved so popular they were in constant demand bv the school and community. They made appearances between the acts of the community play “Twelve Old Maids” at each of its performances. They entertained the patients at the Newton 1). Baker veterans hospital and joined with the girls’ chorus to form a mixed chorus for a radio broad- cast over station WEPM for two school assemblies, as a special chorus for the senior graduation sermon and to climax their first year of organization with the formal spring concert.
