Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves, and, under a just God, cannot long retain it. Abraham Lincoln, 1859 'cDedication With due respect for the people of Berlin, we dedicate this volume to them and their future. Because of their courage and spirit in protecting their inalienable freedom, the city of Berlin exists today as a working example of democracy in the midst of tremendous opposition. We will strive unitedly with these people towards our basic, common goals, in order that the future Berlin will remain a stronghold for freedom and democracy. Mary Ann Jensen We present . . . the 15th edition of the Berlin American High School Yearbook. Here is 1962-63's record of the life, liberty and pursuit of happiness in this European school. Here we present a yearis story of our strenuous efforts to learn all that this country could give us without losing one of those things which we live for and cherish the most - freedom! We dedicate this yearbook to the hundreds of people who gave their lives, in order to try to live a free and human life as we do. We also dedicate this book to the countless thousands of people who still have hope and who are still striving to make their way to freedom, no matter what the cost. It is only a little flame of hope that keeps people searching for this one and only priceless treasure. We dedicate this book, especially, to that certain flame, hoping that it is, and always will be kept burning! Jules Denitto JAMES H. POLK U. 5.

Words by Benjamin Franklin Class of '63 History Ase the gateway of the world opens before us, we look back on our high school years - four years for which there will never be a substitute and which we shall never be able to relive. Only two members of our class, Phil Lear, Freshmen Class President, and Charles Warnock, have spent all four high school years at Berlin High. Our Sophomore year brought a host of new students, many' of whom are still with us. Student Council representative Phil Lear represented us on the basketball court with Maggie Ellithorpe helping to promote school spirit as a cheerleader. Scholastically, Diane Patenaude and Phil Lear received recognition as members of the National Honor Society. Our Junior Class will long be remembered because of our outstanding school leadership. We will be desig- nated as the first Junior Class to put on the Senior Prom, which we held at Congress Hall. The top two class offices were held by Phil Lear and Maggie Ellithorpe respectively. Two 1st stringers, Student Council representative Chuck Hewins and Dave Lodge were in on Gridiron action while Phil Lear and Mike Denton were on the basketball team. Returning soccer players Phil Lear and Charles Warnock were aided by Chuck Hewins. Supporting the teams as cheerleaders were Jeanette Gonzales and Maggie Ellithorpe, while B-ette Captain Linda Counselman helped in the organization of this new club. Class oflicers for our Senior year slated Chuck Hewins, Presidentg Mike Jiru, Vice-President, Gwen Howell, Secretaryg and Pat Burwell, Treasurer. The influence of the Class of '63 was also felt in the student govern- ment with Phil Lear as Student Body President, Maggie Ellithorpe, Corresponding Secretary, Mike Denton, Parliamentariang and Cheryl Whyde, Class Representative. Seniors who greatly aided the victorious Cubs in their 6-O football season were most valuable lineman Mike Jiru, plus Chuck Hewins, Kirby Colson, Mike Denton, Charles Warnock, and Edmond Wong. Three lettermen, Kirby Colson, Mike Jiru, and Phil Lear returned to dominate the basketball court. Many class members were leaders in the promotion of school spirit. Yearbook editor Pat Burwell, as President of the Pep Club, got this organization. working with cheerleaders Maggie Ellithorpe, captain and Homecoming Queen, and Jeanette Gonzales. Newcomer Sandy Eicher entered the scene as majorette captain. Many senior voices were heard in the chorus wherein Mike Denton was President and Mike Jiru backed him up as Vice-President. Scholastic achievements were made by National Honor Society members Maggie Ellithorpe, Secretary, Diane Patenaude, and Sherry Sweet. Bear Factsu editor Peter von Pawel put out endless hours to make our school paper the best ever. As we look back over the years, we remember outstanding leaders, new and old, of the Class of '63, who have achieved recognition in other schools. We have gained much over the years at Berlin High and what we have learned here will have a lasting impression on us as we reach out for higher goals.

The junior class has been depended upon for the fulfillment of Berlin High's many activities, and have been a great asset. Leading our class this year was Mike Clary as President, he was backed by Jan Burks, Vice President, Jane Lychenheim, Secretary and Carol Jiru, Treasurer. These capable leaders kept our class busy and well organized. The student government also benefited from our junior class. Dick Ehst served as Vice President and Mikel Fisher was elected Treasurer. Our class was extremely outstanding in all sports, Football, Basketball and Soccer. From our class were the two football co-captains, Bob Sabolyk and Von Koch. But we were not only a class of leaders, we also had six excellent students on the National Honor Society. These six gave the others in our class the incentive to work harder for perfection. To round out our junior years' activities were the B-ettes and Cheerleaders, The B-ettes were under the leadership of Maria Hissman. The Cheerleading saw one returning class member, Mike Fisher and two new additions, Jan Burks and Carol Jiru. These girls have supported our team, usually victorious, with Pep and unfailing loyalty. To next years juniors we leave open doors to follow up a Hne and enjoyable year.

Sophomore Class Histor The future class of 65' is one that will make a lasting impression on Berlin High School for years to come. We have strived to better our school by supporting athletic activities and bolstering school spirit. This year we have had another outstanding Sophomore Class headed by Mark Rubich, president, jim Albrecht, vice-president, Bob Yarns acting as secretary, and treasurer Robby Moore. In school government, the job of Secretary of the Student council was Hlled by a very able Sophomore, Sue Taylor. Our class representatives were john Schliesser and Sandy McQuarrie, and class president Mark Rubich. Scholastically speaking, the members of our class contributed widely to the Honor and Merit Rolls, and many of us are looking forward to joining the National Honor Society. In extracurricular activities, the sophomores were active members in the Chorus, Band, Red Cross, Newspaper, B-ettes, and Pep Club. We were happy to have a member of our group on the Cheerleading squad, Loni Koch. This livened our interest in sports, and we went all-outl' to support and back the mighty Cubs to their greatest year. We can only hope that our fellow classmates will continue to strive and work together to make the Sophomore Class of 65' one which we can be proud of.

We have about ninety students and represent forty per cent of the entire senior high enrollment. We support four representatives to the student council. Qfficiers of the Freshman class included Ron Vogel, president, Mike Sabolyk, vice-president, Suzanne McGurk, secretary, and Sherril Douglas, treasurer. Steve Meyer, Irene Driscoll, and Miyuki Takahashi were our homeroom representatives. In school football this year, the Freshman class helped the Cubs in their drive toward their 6-O record, both defensively and offensively. Berlin, as may be recalled, rolled over every one of its opponents with a breeze, trouncing rival Bremerhaven twice, once 33-O. Although we had only one regular, Mike Sabolyk, we had several others who played quite often, these boys being Jerry Wilcher, Don Hays, Willi Ng, Ted Brown, Steve Meyer, and Richard Guey Wommack. For the first time in a long time, Berlin High School has had a good chorus and band, with the Freshmen supporting a great number of the students participating. Freshmen girls also made up large parts of the B-ettes and the Pep-Club. Scholastically, the class was above average in total class grades, with the brightest spot being Miyuki Takahashi. Her regular 4.0 average tops the honors for the Freshman class. We also have other people who are quite regular in their grade averages, among these are Sherril Douglas, Mary Beth Moore, Robert Woodside, Jay Jensen, and Mike Sabolyk.

Having perhaps one of the strongest squads ever assembled at Berlin American High School, we literally walked over each opponent. In the opening contest of the campaign, on a sunny day in Berlin, Bad Kreuznach faced the explosion power of the offensive and defensive units of the CUBS. The final outcome was a 25-O victory for us. In the next game Bremerhaven invaded, only to go back with a 27-7 loss inflicted unpon them by the spirited CUBS. After a bye, we went to Karlsruhe where we scored a most decisive 35-7 route. In our homecoming tilt against Toul we quickly put 28 points on the score board by half time, and went on to win by a 42-7 margin. Our next two victims both met defeat at their Homecomings. We subdued Bad Kreuznach 20-O, sewing up the championship in doing so. For our final encounter we traveled to Bremerhaven endeavering to conclude our season at 6-O. We aggressively played our last game, emerging victoriously by a 31-O tally and compleating under head coach Mr. Fitzpatrick and coach Mr. King the most successful football season that Berlin has ever seen.

Cheerleaders Carol jiru, Liichel Fisher, jan Burks, Loni Koch Our team will ight! Thatls what these girls will tell you. The peppy sextet of pert, smiling cheerleaders in their familiar maroon and white never tired of leading the crowd in cheer after cheer for all our athletes. Their job is to mold the atmosphere of the game, constantly yelling, jumping, screaming, and perhaps praying a little as Well. Accepting the responsibility which requires a great deal of time and effort, these girls have done a fine job of supporting the team throughout their hard fought games. Giving the team all their support, they traveled to all away football games and as many out-of-town basketball games as possible. However, behind this enthusiasm goes a lot of hard work, torn muscles, and strained voices. These girls started early in the summer striving for perfection of motion, general peppiness, and more school spirit. Tryouts were held at the first of the year, and the results showed returning lettermen Maggie Ellithorpe, captaing Mikel Fisher, co-captain, and Jeanette Gonzales with new- comers Carol jiru, Jan Burks, and Loni Koch. The place these girls hold in our thoughts is one of admiration and thanks for urging our boys to go, fight, and win. A vote of thanks from the entire student body also goes to their hard working sponsor Mrs. Fitzpatrick.

From these foundations great houses of spiritual and material wealth will rise. For all, however, there will be memories - bitter as well as beautiful - of the buil- ding of the houses. Therevwill be the memories of those who have helped us build them and of the joys and hardships involved. The memories of the successes and the failures will forever linger in our minds. For better, or for worse, the stones have been laid and the past will be our foundation, the present our achievement, and the future our goal. Farewell to the past and may its memories remain that we may hence attain a better life. Peter von Pawel .
