G. STETLER Superintendent Mr, Russell A. G. Stetler, Superintendent of Schools, came to Berwick this year to replace Mr. M. E. Houck. Although only in the system for one year, Mr. Stetler has been responsible for some very beneficial changes. Teachers are now required to have definite plans in their classes and submit them to the office. Another new feature was the Patrons Day on March 14. This enabled parents and other townspeople to inspect the schools and observe students in actual classwork. Although not in operation yet, a Parent-Teacher Association has been planned. The Superintendent now has his office in the Market Street Building whereas formerly the office was located in the high school building. Through his efforts the idea for the Iunior High Schools has been passed and will go into effect next year. Mr. Stetler had been the supervising principal in Canton since 1935. After being graduated from Susquehanna University with an A. B. degree, he com- pleted work for his M. S. and Ph.D degrees at Pennsylvania State College. 4 i'19-43 ir if Blue anh white t DEDICATION The Senior Class of 1.943 Wishes to Express Deepest Gratitude For Years of Faithful Service To Their Class Advisors, MISS IESSIE EVES and MR.

S ecretary Edwin Bittenbender . . . . . Treasurer CLASS POEM '43s Farewell CLASS SQNG With deep regret we shall depart To try the lanes of life, alone. Those jolly times at B.H.S., The seed to happy life was sown. These memories shall linger long Though happily we seem to part. You'll not forget, for this I know, They're buried deep within your heart. Your classmates shall not be forgot Nor teachers, whom your friends became. Though happiness shall be your guide, Your life will never be the same. Your carefree days at Berwick High Are over now, and parting near. 'Tis time to bid farewell to friends And to the school you hold so dear. On towards your heights, attain your goals! Try, and yours success shall be. The hour is here, - time to waste- Yours is opportunity. Our destinies though far from home Shall ever backward-looking be, And classmates will remember still The immortal class of '43. IACQUELINE HARTER The Graduates Farewell fTo the tune of Auld Lang Synenj First Verse Our High School days are nearly o'er, And we'll soon have to part: But thoughts of them will always stay, Deep, deep within my heart. Second Verse You mothered us when we were young. And showed us the right way: Now praises lay upon our tongue, As we leave here today. Chorus We'll miss our teacher and our friends. We'll miss our studies, too: But most of all dear old high school. We surely will miss you.

At Washington, D. C., a very handsome memorial was dedicated to his mem- ory. Yet the memorials he would doubtless prefer are the living monu- ments of the University of Virginia and the great public-school system he helped to establish. Thomas Iefferson was as Ameri- can as his background, and that was quite American. He was born on the frontier in Western Virginia, on land which his father had personally cleared, in a region where there were practically no white settlers. He was thus a frontiersman, and not a mansion-bred aristocrat, al- though his Mother came from the eminent Randolph family. The fron- tier taught him the virtues of self- reliance, common sense, and, above all, a deep respect for the other fellow. The first thing that struck people about Iefferson was his size, the sec- ond, his carrot-red hair. Six feet two and a half inches in height, he was taller than George Washington, but not quite so massive. Thin and muscular, somewhat gangly and long-legged, he was a little awkward in his movements. His complexion was ruddy, weather-beaten, the skin of a man who spent hours daily out- doors on horseback. After having attended an English school and a Latin school, he entered William and Mary College. At the end of two years and one month, he left college but he stayed at Wil- liamsburg to study law. Although he disliked the profession and its jargon, nothing he undertook could be mediocre and so he became a suc- cessful lawyer. ln 1769 he began to level off the ground for Monticello. Thereupon he became his own architect, engin- eer, construction foreman, cabinet- maker, and landscape artist. In 1772 he married Martha Wayles Skelton. Of the six child- ren born to them, only three survis rd their Mother who died ten years after the marriage. In Iune 1775, he attended the Sec- ond Continental Congress in Phila- delphia. Immediately he was put on a committee to draw up a declaration of causes for taking up arms against Great Britain, but Congress adjourn- ed because it could not agree on this document. Returning to Congress on May 13, 1776, he was chosen one of a committee of five to write the Declaration of Independence, which was unanimously adopted on Iuly the fourth. As legislator, his revision of the Virginia code in 1779 became a mod- el for all states from that time. Soon after, Iefferson was elected Governor of Virginia and was faced with ter- rific economic and military problems. The British troops, under Benedict lContinued on page 731 1943 ir 'A' 'k -A' Blue anh white if at -A' Vctledictory - Policies of Thomas Iefierson by Gloria Reimer Thomas Iefferson--statesman, ed- ucator, architect, author, lawyer, far- mer, husband - approached real greatness far beyond the conception of the average American. Versatil- ity was the keynote in his life and in everything that he attempted he ex- celled. No matter in what occupa- tion he labored, Iefferson never for- got to work for the good of the common man. This is especially illus- trated by his religious doctrines. He loosed the colonies from the bonds of the Church of England in order that each man might worship according to his personal beliefs. Perhaps his whole personality may be best unfolded by an examination of his traits and sacrificial disposi- tion. He was willing to substitute much of his personal happiness to benefit another. Although born to great wealth, Thomas Iefferson died practically penniless, because of his sacrifices and life-long altruism. The abolition of slavery was another ideal of this great American. All negroes understood his deep re- spect and sympathy for them, and loved, even to the point of wor- shipping, him for it. Iefferson's hos- pitality and generousity were nation- ally-known. He was honest, affectionate, and. above all, practical. He never did anything without a purpose. At his beloved home, Monticello, Long Tom. as he was called by friends. installed many ingenious devices which showed his keen practical sense. His inventions included a polygraph, or duplicate writing ma- chine, the first storm window. dumb waiters, a weather vane, and a re- volving chair. A truly great man has moral cour- age, high respect for womanhood. and constancy in his convictions. All of these were natural to Thomas lelferson, and he practiced these ideals throughout his life. A proof of his deep respect and courtesy to- ward women was his marriage into one of the finest families in the South. Next let us examine Iefferson as a great leader. Everyone loved him. because he was one of them, and in every office he held, their interests were his. Although he was a lover of peace, Iefferson believed that just- ice is the fundamental law of so- ciety. He was so strongly in favor of the freeing of the slaves and in his belief of the equality of men that the Civil War threatened the coun- try several decades before the actual fighting occurred in President Lin- coln's time. As an educational leader, Ieffer- son had perspective such as no other man has been able to equal. He realized that an uneducated people could not carry on an intelligent form of government. Especially a vystem such as our country has in its demo- cracy of the people, by the people. and for the people would perish without an educated populace. Therefore Iefferson originated our plan of free education and public instruction by starting a few country schools in his native state of Virginia. lContinued on page 593 'k 35 'k1943 Blur anh whiff 1943 ICK H1 H scHooL BAND BER 3 avg ggi JDS EEUU E-ED-' Q, Ewt 5:-my D OIUQ ZX Qj,.,O wma: 'U 2-4'-'CZ Y:-C 2 'EQ' WSE 'Q +-mi Elma: 5..:lE,'E S-if Af53im 0.53 rc..

Berwick High School's war class brings greetings to you at this our last gathering. We, in line with other schools in the United States, have been a part of that great Army of Education which has thrown its best into the struggle. Fighting with Learning is the slogan of victory. With this in mind we, the senior class, have made an all out effort to prepare ourselves to meet the de- mands of the armed forces, of indus- try, and civilian defense, by follow- ing the program as outlined by our great educational leaders in every way we could. For the past four years in high school we have met all requirements for the regular prescribed courses ln addition, we have participated in extra-curricular activities, followed by a strict physical fitness program, and taken part in community service. lt took that fatal day of Dec. 7, 1941, for our school, along with those throughout the nation, to show to the world that almost overnight we could turn our class room into a citadel where that greatest army of the nation's man power could be edu- cated for war and for the peace that follows. The great army of education is on the march. 31,200,000 teachers and students are in full training. Every high school boy and girl is partici- pating in some form of war effort. Tonight the class of 1943 is going to assume the role of soldiers in an educational training camp. Through various episodes we are going to show you how this class, which is typical of thousands of others scat- tered throughout the nation, has ral- lied to our country's call. Behind the Guns This second World War is a total war. The nation's schools have gone to war. Almost over night class rooms have been turned into citadels. Students have been trained daily to equip themselves to the demands of the war effort. They are literally Fighting with Learning . Behind the Guns , portraying the schools at war, was a clever patriotic pageant in which the Senior Class cast assumed the roles of soldiers in an Educational Training Camp. As the scene opened, the soldiers were about ready to receive their commissions and enter into larger Helds of service. The captain appear- ed and told them that they were to stage an important military review at which high commanding officers, parents, and friends had been invit- ed to attend. Through various episodes the sold- iers showed how they had prepared themselves, since they were privates in the Freshman Class, to meet the demands of the armed forces, of in- dustry, and of civilian defense. The final scene, in which each soldier accepted the challenge for service, reached a stirring climax of patriotic significance. Songs of the past and present wars aroused the spirit of patriotism within the hearts of Young and Old America . ir1943 'A' 37 1' t -A' Blue anim white if if iv MANTLE ORATION BY HARRY CALLEY Members of the school board, su- perintendent, teachers, p a r e n t s, friends, and classmates: Another class of seniors is about to leave these honored portals. This time the graduates will enter a world that, in no uncertain terms, is plung- ed into uncertainty from every corner. It is engaged in the struggle for its very existence. The world's future is entwined in this conflict which the United Nations must, and will, win. But mere victory-'crowning ach- ievement of men and machines that it may be--is not enough. World government is what the hemispheres are asking as a unit, and in the cre- ation of this government lies the task for these seniors and thousands like them. Many of our classmates and for- mer classmates are seeing action or training for it on the scattered battle- fronts of the world-from the desert sands of Tunisia to the icy shores of Greenland and Iceland, from the South Pacific islands to the plains of India. For these seniors, the juniors that follow them, and Berwick High School graduates for the next decade the job is definitely cut out. Edu- cation and more of it will be neces- sary to surmount the problems of the peace that is to come to the war- torn world. The problems of a new world economy, a new type of world government, and rehabilitation-on a gigantic scale which has never be- fore been seen-will engulf us. The best way to cope with this mammoth task is to educate ourselves as highly as possible. We, as the victors with our Allies, hold the key to the future. Upon our wisdom depends the destiny of the world in a direct manner. Each of us is a cog in the giant machine of this new life, At the sight of fContinued on Page 79j MANTLE ACCEPTANCE In behalf of the Iunior class of Berwick High School I accept this mantle which is symbolic of the tra- ditions and honor of our Alma Mater. We, as Iuniors, realize that with this mantle comes to us a greater challenge that has fallen to any pre- ceding Iunior class. We believe that because of the uncertainty of the im- mediate future the tendency of youth is towards a neglect of life, while they concentrate their efforts upon the ever present demands of our war effort. War will pass, victory will be ours, and the youth of America must be prepared to contribute to post war world stability. With that goal in mind we, the Iuniors, of Berwick High School, shall endeavor, not only to continue unremittingly the war effort, of our high school, but also to increase the effort put forth to establish a high scholastic standing in a broad field of learning. Numerous boys of the class of '43 have already responded to their country's call to the many branches of armed service and many others will ioin the ranks. Those of us who remain shall strive to the best of our abilities to keep the home front strong and to contribute our part by grasping all opportunities to better prepare our- selves for the exciting life of the future. With the acceptance of this man- tle we assume these responsibilities and shall endeavor to maintain faith- fully the traditions of this our Alma Mater. i'1943 i' 'A' i' -A' 181112 ann white -A' 'A' ir 1943 BACCALAUREATE ADDRESS Rev. A. D. Knoebel Youth Facing A Chaotic VVorld was the tneme of Rev. A. D. Knoebel. His text was And I saw the holy city, new Ieru- salem, coming down from God out of Heaven. -Revelations 21 :2. He spoke in part as follows: It is both an honor and a joy to me to have the high privilege of serving this grad- uating class today in the capacity of a baccalaureate speaker. I am glad for this ideal opportunity to present a spiritual challenge to you who are leaving the dear halls of Berwick High School to step out into a confused and war-weary world. I heartily congratulate each one of you on your graduation and extend my best wishes to you for a lengthy life of worthwhile Christian service. However, while we who are your friends and loved ones rejoice at your scholastic achievements as students, we also deeply regret that we have not a better world to offer you as you close your books and step forth into the larger school of life with its varied experiences. Let us consider the world as it is- the world into which you enter more fully upon your graduation. Today youth faces a chaotic world, filled with greed, cruelty and hate. It is a world tom to pieces by intemational strife. The havoc of war is seen on all sides. No one can live in these times without strongly feeling the effects of the world conflict on his life. Life has been completely changed for all of us. But not all of the undesirable feaures of our chaotic world are expressions of international strife. Even in peace times we have in our beloved America consider- able industrial contention, resulting in strikes, picketing and violence. There is graft and bribery in politics, dishonest and unfair practices in business, crime, lawlessness. immarality and domestic troubles resulting in broken homes and divorce. This is the kind of a world which you young graduates and all of us gathered here today face. Would that it were otherwise. Contemplating this tragic state of affairs which exists in the world, it is natural that we should raise the question, Why is the world so wicked today? We also ask. What is the solution of the world's prob- lems? From the Christian viewpoint, the great need of the world today and every day is Iesus Christ. He is the solution to the world's problems. The world is sin-sick and war- weary because Christ has not been followed. Man has felt self-sufficient and has walked in his own wilful way. He has brought about his own misery by breaking God's laws. Christ alone can transform life, wheth- er it be the life of nations or of individuals. In the third place, let us try to picture the ideal world which will exist when Christ will be recognized as the Supreme Leader of all nations and peoples, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. St. Iohn the Divine had a vision of the better world to come and wrote in his book of Revelation, chapter 21, verse 2, I saw the holy city, new Ierusalern, coming down from God out of heaven. Here stands the text of this message. It is a figure of speech referring to the new world to come when Christ will be accepted as King by all peop- le. It will be bright, happy and joyous. Man- kind will be organized into a universal broth- erhood, where a just and a durable peace will exist eternally. There will be mutual understanding and good will between all nations, all races, all religious groups, all social classes and all individuals. Service will be the goal in every realm of life in- stead of selfish personal interests. Truly in the holy city the new Ierusalem to come. every person will be well-born, well-fed, well-clothed, and well-housed. Finally, you who are today's graduates from Berwick High School are challenged to apply the Christian remedy to the world's ills and so build the better world. If Christ is the greatest of our chaotic world today. then I challenge each one of you to accept Him as your Lord and Saviour, learn of Him the true way of life, follow Him daily, and be willing to pay the price of Christian dicipleship Furthermore, do not be content with seeking only your own personal salva- tion.

FRESHMAN YEAR, 1939-'40 On September fifth, nineteen hundred and thirty-nine, we entered Berwick High School with a class of three hundred and twenty- seven. We were ushered into high school by Miss Marjorie Orr, librarian, and Mr. kay McBride, commercial teacher. Our class advisors were Miss Florine Moore and Mr. Frank Hess. Officers for our initial year were as follows: President ,.,..,,. Roland Lenhart Vice-President .... Gloria Reimer Secretary .....,,.., Helen Kliss Treasurer ,..,.... Iackie Harter During Customs Week we underwent such punishment as the Sophomore Class saw fit to inHict upon us. Some of our em- barrassing duties were. l. Boys carried dolls and wore aprons. 2. Girls wore a sock on one foot, stock- ing on the other. 3. Boys rolled up one pant leg. 4. Every one wore a sign of cardboard and a green bow. At our Freshman Welcome Party given by the Iuniors, Helen Kliss was voted Miss '43 with Aaron Mittleman being chosen as Mr. '43. This dance was held in the gym on October sixth. An improvement in our school was brought through the replacement of old benches in one of the classrooms by new chairs. Miss Hetler organized a sewing club which was a hit with the girls. Mr. Pierre Henrotte was the guest con- ductor at the annual Band Concert on April twenty-ninth. Our class was honored by the promotion of Nick Roll to the rank of Eagle Scout. In the Blue and White short story contest, Mike Balducci won the Fresh- man prize. Berwick rated high in sports that year with the varsity football team copping nine out of ten games, the jayvees four out of four. In basketball we won eleven games, lost eight, ending third in the league. Miss Louise Yeager wed Iohn B. Flesher at the end of our frosh year. The Freshman scholarship award went to Gloria Reimer with Edwin Bittenbender honorable mention. During the summer between that and our Sophomore years, we lost a member of our class, Theodore West. SOPHOMORE YEAR, 1940-'41 Heading our class for the second year were: President ...,,... Elaine Oberdorf Vice-President . , Harry Calley Secretary ,.., Dorothy Moharter 'Treasurer ,......... Helen Kliss Additional members to the faculty were Miss Ruth Fairchilds, Mr. Thomas Hartman, Mr. Harold Border, Mr. Michael Habian. Mr. Richard Bevilacqua. New courses in- troduced into high school were home eco- nomics, manual training, and Bible study. Fluorescent lighting and a new system of grading were also brought to school. The proposed gym, which everyone wanted so badly, was not passed in the voting of the people of the town. Then we had our turn in inflicting cus- toms on the poor innocent Freshman.

Did you ever lose your false teeth? Do you believe in love at Hrst sight? And can you detect a bandit, even if he is a smooth Hbusi- nessman from Hollywoodn? All of these things occured in the Dramatic Club production, Tish , which had its audience in stitches on Friday. April 16, in the high school auditor- ium. This comedy replaced the an- nual Senior drama and was the first activity on the new stage. The setffng was a Southwestern hotel where three spinsters decided to spend a vacation. Two villains were exposed and two couples united. Characters included: Tish.

Dunkleberger Our commencement speaker was Dr. George F. Dunkleberger, Professor of Psy- chology and Education at Susquehanna Uni- versity. He received the A. B. degree from that institution, the A. M. degree from the University of Pittsburgh, and the Ph.D degree from New York University. He taught in the Public Schools of Snyder, Perry and Dauphin counties: served on the faculties of the California State Teachers College, Waynesburg College, and New York University: and since 1926 has been the dean and faculty member of Susquehan- na University. He has lectured widely at teachers' institutes and other religious and educational organizations in Pennsylvania, New Iersey, Maryland, and West Virginia. How To Get What You Want SYNOPSIS acquired wants, and employs various devices to satisfy them. Among these devices are crying, begging, praying, stealing, flattering, and fighting. Most of these have very little to commend themselves. Crying is the method employed by spoiled child- ren, spoiled youth, and neurotic and emotionally unstable adults. Begging is getting what one wants by asking for it just as crying is getting what one wants by shedding tears for it. Praying is an excellent way provid- ing one asks for the right thing and conforms to the conditions for an- swered prayer. The dishonest man uses stealing to get what he wants. The unscrupulous man gets what he wants by gratifying the vanity and the self-love of other people. Indiv- iduals and nations often resort to fighting to get what they want. one wants but it is more important to get it in the right way. The surest and best way is to work for it. If people would always do this, there would be more prosperity, greater happiness, and a finer spirit among all people. People cannot get some- thing for nothing and get it honestly. If people should chance to get some- thing for nothing, then somebody is bound to get nothing for something. People will always appreciate much more what they get by working for it. Life is worth living if it is made worth living, ln a large measure people get out of life proportionately what they put into life. People are useful only when they are useful to others. The good citizen invariably leaves his community better than he found it.

Three matinees for the grade and high school students pre- ceded the concert. As guest conductor, Captain Tay- lor Branson took charge of the band for half of the program. He is a former Marine Band conductor. Included in the program were: March of the Toys , Rose Marie Overture , Voice of Freedom , Merry Wives of Windsor , Beau- tiful Colorado as a solo by Fred Clemens, Flight of the Bumblebee and Clarinet Polka by William Bailey, Ray DeCesaris, Don Foll- mer, and Nevin Savage. The follow- ing marches were played: Stars and Stripes Forever , Builders of Am- erica , You're a Grand Old Flag , and Yankee-Doodle Boy . During the concert a service flag was dedicated to the boys in service. It was made in the Home Economics classes under the direction of Mrs. Geneva Massic. The stars were in the shape of the bars and clef of a musician's staff. Sweaters have been ordered for the senior members of the band. going MUSIC WEEK This year's observance of Music Week was a brilliant display of the talents of Berwick Grade and High School students under the direction of Prof. R. R. Llewellyn and various teachers. On Monday, May 3, the glee clubs and rhythm bands from the grade schools scored the first success of the week in the crowded high school auditorium. In honor of the parents of the pupils participating in the af- fair, they presented a varied and in- teresting musical program. On Wed- nesday they repeated the same pro- gram for the general public. The high school girls' choruses with Miss lean Houghten as piano soloist, gave an exceptionally line program of song and music on Tues- day, May 4. The Berwick High School Band, directed by band members, scored heavily on Thursday in spite of the attempts of the blackout to prevent its success. The grand climax of the week came when the school children of the grades presented a spirited pageant entitled, A Tour of the United Na- tions on Friday, May 7. at 1943 if if Zliluz an white -A' BLUE AND WHITE STAFF lst row Christina Costello Bernice Herring Gloria Reimer, Irene NVansock, Alice Arcy. 2nd row Lois Derr Marie Torsella lane Dunning. 3rd row Bruce Scott Millard Fisher Clarence Herr, lack Hortman. 4th row ack Simpson Arthur Amdt George Yerges, EDITOR NEXT YEAR Heading the 1943-'44 Blue and White staff will be Irene Wansock as editor.

At that time the wealthy men, however, were opposed to high taxes for edu- cational purposes-especially to ben- efit the negroes-and as a result, Iefferson's plans were not really put into operation for many years. His crusade against ignorance brought many enemies, but his true friends were the masses. Finally Thomas Iefferson will live forever as the most eloquent apostle of democracy. His ideas and beliefs of this form of overnment were broad, humane, ant? applicable to ev- en our twentieth century. Could we return in a future era, the dogmas of Iefferson would probably still have the same pungent and inspiring ap- peal. The Declaration of Independ- ence is the culmination of all its auth- or's steadfast doctrines and has never been surpassed. Iefferson's draft of the Declaration was little altered, but he changed the inalienable rights to life, liberty, and property by substituting the pursuit of happiness which even the humblest mortal can enjoy. His conceptions of democ- racy are stimulating to anyone at any time. Although the Federalists dubbed him a coward, shyster, and betrayer of American rights, Thomas Ieffer- son was and still is the best advocate of democracy. He faced these .c- bukes with tact, patience, and per- sistence: he possessed the priceless charactersitic of having power over thought and expression. ln today's worldwide revolt against despotism, his words reassure us: Even should the cloud of bar- barism ana' despotism again ob- scure the science and liberties of Europe. this country remains to preserve right and libert to them. In short, the flames Zinc!- Ied on the 'ith of Iuly 1776 have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism: on the contrary they will consume them and all who work with them. FAREWELL BY GLORIA REIMER Classmates- We have reached the end of our school days together after many happy experi- iences. But sadness. too, has crept into our class life. Although many of our fellow graduates are in the armed forces, we know that tonight they are with us spiritually, wherever they may be. Tomorrow we face the world alone without the assistance of teachers and the same care of our parents, which we have had from infancy. Our associates in service will join us in our life's joumey, when our foes have been completely destroyed. We sincerely wish to thank all those who have made our twelve years in Berwick schools profitable. The Board of Education deserves a great deal of praise along with our superintendent and principals whose cooperation keeps the ideals of the schools high. Likewise our teachers never failed to give us aid when it was most needed. And then let us honor our parents. for none of us could have this wonderful ex- perience tonight without their sacrifices on our behalf. Since birth they have nurtured us, helped us in trying situations, and have been always willing to give solace and comfort. As we face realities tomorrow and in our future lives, we will do everything to repay them for their loving guidance and to prove that we are really worthy of all their heartaches. So let us now, as we truly enter the world. set as our goals all of the qualities for which Thomas Iefferson stood and which he practiced over a century ago. With God's help may we further democracy and keep our country's honor untamished. i'1943 i' 59 'A' at if Blue anh white 'Ir at at Compliments of HlHWIEIl 'Hl3lUHl EHMPHNY HEADQUARTERS JOSEPH BUHAY FOR QUALITY MEATS 5' GROCERIES Sporting Goods Luggage , 1170 First Ave' p Photographic Supplies Berwick, Pa. 9 Phone 1012-I We Deliver l f 1 lfsfnwvrs asnwlcn PA.

We therefore won the Wyom- ing Valley Conference, had the highest rating high school team in the state, and had the best season record in the state. The ja vees, too, were undefeated. Xfwo minor fires and one large one oc- cured during the year. A lighted cigarette is thought to have caused both the fire in room 104 and in the boys' lavatory. Then right before the Senior Drama the stage burned. This forced the Drama to be given at Nescopeck. In basketball the Berwick cagers won the Wyoming Valley League, District Two honors, and regional honors only to be de- feated by Lower Merion for the Eastern championship. Mr. C. C. Bream left for the Navy with a rating of Lieutenant, j.g. In intramural basketball the Iunior boys won the title. Our second social event was a delight- ful Iunior-Senior Prom given at West Side Park on May thirteen. Marriages of the year among the faculty members were as follows: Miss Fairchild to Mr. Frank Hag- enbuch, Mr. Harold Border to Miss Betty Dent, and Mr. Harold Lanterman to Miss Dorothy Scheckler. The en agement of Mr. Ray McBride and Miss l:'?dna Keller was announced. The Iunior scholarship award was won by Gloria Reimer and Mary Ha man. Gloria Reimer received the American History prize for girls and Carl Bredbenner for boys. Hon- orable mention went to Eleanor DeNunzio and Steve Berbich. SENIOR YEAR. 1942-'43 Forced to resign because of illness, Mr. Frank Hess was replaced as our advisor by Mr. Thomas Hartman. Our officers were: President .,,.,...,, Harry Calley Vice-President .. Carl Bredbenner Secretary ,,.,...... Helen Kliss Treasurer ..,. Edwin Bittenbender A big change in our school set-up took place by the replacement of Mr. M. E. Houck as superintendent. Mr. Russel A. G. Stetler came here from Canton to take his position. With Mr. Stetler came Mr. Mur- ray Watts, Miss Lois Remensnyder, Mr. Charles Heller, Miss Geneva Knelly, Mr. Nelson Hoffman, coach, Miss Blanche Gar- rison, and Mr. Thomas Hartman, who re- turned from a grade building. Mr. A. C. Morgan was made assistant principal to handle all absences and late pupils. Miss Elrla Long was given the job of truant of- cer. According to former years, the Senior Class took charge of the eating stands at the football games. Through the efforts of the advisors another stand was built by the manual training classes and, in all, the Sen- iors utilized three stands. Added to the curriculum, -were Spanish. military training, home nursing, and also aeronautics books have been issued to sev- eral teachers for supplimentary reading and study in their regular classes. Miss Hetler also added a course in Interior Decorating. As Editor of the Blue and White from our class, we had Gloria Reimer. Caroll Briggs, Anna Posick, Marjorie Andreas, lack Simpson, and Wilma l-'ressler were given the job of typing the material for the school publication. Mr. Ray McBride's marriage during the summer was announced, as well as the engagement of Miss Dorothy Savage to Mr. Drue Folk, and the marriage of Miss Geneva Knelly to Mr. George Massic. Miss Geraldine Canouse, Mr. Shuman's secretary, also announced her engagement and left high school to work at the A.C.F. She was succeeded by Miss Winifred Marshall. This year the spirit of World War II really struck Berwick High. Through the sale of defense stamps and bonds, the scrap drives, and the Ieep Week , the students showed their patriotism. But more than that, many boys from our class followed the Call to Colors by enlisting or being drafted. These boys were: Marines - Steve Krissg Navy - Melvin Ertwine, Robert Rar- ich, Myron Pifer, Donald Kemp, Robert Van Houten, William Martz, lack Lewis, Charles Evans, Charlie Lewisg Kenneth Long, Wayne Schuyler, Edwih Bittenbender, Richard Hirleman: Army-Wayne Naus, Keith Hudelson, Robert Bloom, Harry Dyer. Others had enlisted while we were in school. but had not yet received their call. Due to illness, Mr. Charles Heller was forced to resign. He was followed by Mrs. Rebecca Frantz in history and Mrs. A. D. Knoebel in German. As Mrs. Knoebel, too, was forced to resign, Mr. Ernest Hower was brought back to teach German. He had been granted a year's sabbatical leave. Then to the joy of all students and teach- ers, the new stage was completed and the Band Concert and Dramatic Club produc- tion could be given. A new panorama, new footlights, and the disposal of the orchestra pit were features of the stage. Aaron Mit- tleman was elected president of the Dramat- ic Club, Donald Kemp of the Band. Also, leaving the faculty to join the armed forces, were Miss Hilda Tinney in the WAVES, Mr. Clarence Ruch in the Navy, Mr. Ioseph Coviello in the Navy. Mrs. Ed- na McBride took Miss Tinney's position. Miss Susanne Lehman replaced Mr. Ruch. and Mr. William Selden filled the vacancy left by Mr. Coviello.

At the an- nual Band Concert a service flag was dedi- cated to all the boys of former years who have been in the Band and are now in the armed forces. Contrary to custom, the Senior class vot- ed to abandon the May Day festivities at West Side Park, or Crispin Field, due to the lar e number of boys who had left the class. The Drama was replaced by a Dra- matic Club production, Tish , which in- cluded students from all classes. Rev. and Mrs. Virgil Wallace conducted an essay contest for seniors to tell the Favorite World Leader of 1943 . Eleanor Phillips won the first prize and delivered her essay on Madame Chiang Kai-Shek in assembly on Class Day. On May tenth it was our turn to be en- tertained by the Iuniors at West Side Park for a delightful Iunior-Senior Prom. Two other new features were the Music Week presented by the grade school glee clubs, the high school girls' chorus, and the band, and the moving of the Superinten- dent's office to Market Street Building. Invitations were ordered through the Ber- wick Store Co. It was decided to have a Senior Farewell Dance in the Gym on May twenty-first. This was greatly enjoyed by all who attended. Class Day was held for the underclass- men on May fourteenth in the auditorium. In the program were the Class Will, Pro- phecy. and Presentations. The entire as- sembly was worked up by a committee of Seniors, who participated in it. At that time the Class Poem was read, the Class Song sung by the Seniors, the winning essay de- livered, a tribute paid to the boys in ser- vices, and the honor students announced. We had an exceptionally large group of honor students including: Gloria Reimer, valedictorian: Mar Hayman, salutatorian: Pauline Egizie, Syfeve Berbich.

Resentful over military defeat, many legisla- tors clamored for a dictator demand- ing that Iefferson's conduct be inves- tigated. Although the investigation came to nothing, the attack left its mark on Iefferson's soul and as his term as Governor was over, he re- turned to Monticello to study, to meditate, to entertain his friends, and to enjoy his family. During this period in 1782, his wife Martha died, thrusting upon him the greatest sorrow of his life. ln the fall he took his place in Con- gress and devised our present mon- etary system of dollars and cents. In May 1784, lefferson was ap- pointed Minister Plenipotentiary to France, and he sailed for his first trip to Europe. After Franklin returned home. he became full ambassador. He feared and detested monarchies more and more. and in 1790 returned to his beloved America. lefferson's three years as Secretary of State were marked by bitter -con- flict with Alexander Hamilton who ooposed Iefferson in all his views. Tired bv all this conflict he resigned and on December 31, 1793, he retired to Monticello. ln 1797 he was elected Vice-Pres- ident, while Iohn Adams, who re- ceived two or more votes than Ieffer- son, became President. Iefferson was 58 years of age when he walked along the swampy roadway toward the uncompleted capitol, to take the oath as third President of the United States. One of the greatest triumphs of his eight- vear presidency was the Louisiana Purchase. ln 1809 he retired permanently to Monticello where he spent the last seventeen years of his life farming, struggling with his mounting debts, entertaining at Monticello, and drawing the plans and superintend- ing the construction of the Univer- sity of Virginia. Both he and his friend, Iohn Ad- ams, died on Iuly 4, 1826-just 50 years after he had blotted the ink on his Declaration: We hold these truths to be selfevident, that all men are created equal. On his tomb- stone in Monticello is the epitaph he desired: Here was buried Thomas Iefferson, Author of the Declaration of In- dependence, Of the Statute of Virginia for Re- ligious Freedom, and Father of the University of Vir- gmza.

Yet, this is the task of these graduates. We give them something stupendous for their powers, the glorious task of building a heaven, a holy city in which the inhabitants shall not li: nor steal, nor murder, nor hate. The forces of evil are to be destroyed, such as fears, disease, poverty, oppression. Youth must make right take the place of might. Human hate and ill will must vanish before Christian love and good will. Christ chose young men to be his disciples, because youth has enthusiasm, optimism. strength and opportunity. To the members of this graduating class these qualities of youth belong. Christ needs them. I challenge you to give your best to the Master. Help Him to build the holy city, the new Ieru- salem. Dedicate your lives to ushering in the better day. Use all of your talents, your education, and your strength that Christ's ideal of a brohterhood of unselfish men and women under the Fatherhood of a loving God may be advanced in your own day and by your own labors. -A' 7 if 1943 ir t ak Blue ant white if ak TO OUR FRIENDS Letterman QF 1943 Baking Company BEST WISHES VITAMIN - ENRICHED BREAD AND QUALITY CAKES Rat Phillips Bloomsburg, Puma.

As I look at your faces, so much more clearly marked with the lines of wisdom and wider experi- ence than ours, it seems that the words of welcome should come from you. You have shown great interest in us dur- ing the last four years, and your very pres- ence here tonight demonstrates this continued interest. Yet, as it is we who are passing out into your midst, so much of our success in life will depend upon the way you receive US.

Let us not be discouraged by the twisted nature of the world today. It is for us to determine our rightful paths of endeavor and to follow them as soon sl as the tasks of war permit us to return to them. And so it is with deep concern that l, as president of the senior class, hand down the essential mantle of education to the class that will follow our footsteps. Guard this mantle, juniors. It is your heritage and priv- ilege. Continue, uninterrupted and with diligence, your regular routine of education: prepare for your life's work.
