The department is constantly growing. At the present time it includes the fields of counseling, occupational information, facts concerning colleges, universities and trade schools, scholarships, and the various phases of testing and iob placement. The primary purpose of the program is to provi e an adequate pupil-personnel program that will reach every student ' hin the school. With this purpose in mind, the depar ent ill vor furnish a program which will give attention t ch 1 i stu t according to his individual n3eds. My X . 4 UNK, Fl! 1.

The aims of this course are to create a conscientious sense of social responsibility in drivers, to equip drivers with information and skills, and to reduce traffic emergencies and accidents to a minimum. Each student receives two theory and two driving classes per week for a total of eighteen weeks. A dual control car donated by Hoskin Chevrolet, Inc., is used. A special marked practice street is used for beginners. This is located on Mulberry Street in front of Crispin Field. There are statistics to prove that students who take the driver educa- tion program in high school have fifty percent less accidents than those who learn to drive otherwise.

ENGLISH The fundamental idea underlying the fact that all students are mem- bers of an English class during every year of their school life is to train each to speak, read, write, and listen to the English language in a way that will make him socially acceptable and vocationally efficient. A student's mastery of English should enable him to derive genuine pleasure from intellectual activity. Development in the use of language is a condition of the student's progress in all fields of learning.

Opportunities are given students to practice those uses of language demanded by varied life experiences, for example: writing letters, making announcements, giving reports and making speeches, convers- ing and discussing topics of interest, giving accounts of personal ex- periences, making summaries, formulating opinions of books, and lis- tening critically. The speech correction classes are in charge of Miss Richards. The major purpose of these classes is the alleviation of speech difficulties. Devices used include mirrors, microphones, recorders, finger painting therapy, and others. 1-Nu? is.

FRANK TAYLOR BUSINESS EDUCATION The business education curriculum is both vo- cational and social in nature. It has been or- ganized to develop an understanding of economic life and a more intelligent use of business ser- vices and agencies as well as to prepare our young people for iobs in business and related positions. This department plays an important role in the educational program of school and community. Constantly under a program of modernization and improvement, the Berwick business educa- tion department is recognized as one of the finest in the state of Pennsylvania. Last year this department recorded the best score in the history of the Annual Business Edu- cation Contest held at Bloomsburg State Teachers College. The department also took first honors in 1950. A senior typing class PAUL KLINGER 1 L' ' There are l52 students enrolled in the busi- ness education course. ln addition to these full time students there are 84 students, who are enrolled in the general or the college prep courses, that take one or two commercial sub- jects such as typing, shorthand, or bookkeeping. Subiects in the business education curriculum are shorthand, typing, economic geography, bookkeeping, business law, retail selling, office practice, and business English. A business education enables all students to understand and perform the inescapable business aspects of life, such as banking, insurance, so- cial security, and taxes. For those who seek em- ployment in business occupations this course en- ables them to succeed in their initial employment and from it to advance to positions of greater responsibility. Business arithmetic and iunior business train- ing are taken by iunior high school students planning to enroll in his course when they enter ' ' h l.' - , r ,, senior high xoo ix U , f k lt Vl 1 ' rj 'V V lllllll il I l i J 7 l ll it ,ill ,X y. pi ll kg in-'L vi ,i 1 li lt lil X t l i ll l 1 1: ' lf ' ' Ai 'L lxlll If .l lfvll-yi ni. i NIR, lvl all 'fo record payroll and social security taxes 4 .8 , x I . ..., I 'f':-at-, -Y' X Z' ALLAN TURNER Biology THOMAS HARTMAN Chemistry, Physics SCIENCE Science is the great adventure of modern times.

W i t 5 EDNA HARTER Algebra, Geometry Trigonometry ROGER DAVIS I4 Vocational Mathematics Biology students study skeletons. MATHEMATICS The aim of most math courses is to make practical application of problems to common life experiences. Other courses prepare students for college or for their chosen profession. Students are taught to solve practical and ab- stract problems with exactness. There are 81 algebra students, 54 geometry students, and I6 taking trigonometry. A class in general math is taught by Mr. Zimmerman. A plane geometry class Memorial from the Class of 1953 Students work at charging desk LIBRARY The Class of i953 presented the library with two sets of reference books as a class memorial. Collier's Encyclopedia is a twenty volume set valued highly by school and public libraries for educational refer- ence material. The Dictionary of American Biography records the lives of fourteen thousand American men and women whose careers helped to shape our nation's destiny. Both of these sets of books will be used and enioyed by the students who follow the Class of l953. MARJORIE O.

A nurse is on call throughout the school day to take care of first aid cases and to assist in the health examinations. LEO RATAMESS Boys' Health and Physical Education MICHAEL J. MATZKO EDMUND NIKLEWSKI HARRIET AUKER Physician Dentist Nurse The department of physical educa- tion aims to establish sound health habits thus helping the student be- come more efficient physically and mentally. It also seeks to supply the student with fundamental skills in rec- reational activities that will not only be satisfying during high school years but that may be enioyed in after high school leisure time as well. A minimum of two periods per week is required of all students. No student is excused from physical edu- cation except on the written statement of a qualified physician. Students with excuses from doctors take physical education theory. A course of three periods per week in health is required of all students in their eleventh year. First aid is taught during the first semester and home nursing during the second semester Good health and physical fitness are indispensable requisites to the success of any individual.

Engagements of the group during the past year include a concert given at the Hotel Jermyn in Scranton for a Bankers' Convention. The chorus provided music for the Community Thanksgiving service held at the Methodist Church and for the Thanksgiving Football Game. At Christmas time a community carol sing was held in the Presbyterian Church to obtain funds for the poor. The group also provides entertainment for a number of special school assemblies. Annually the girls present a spring concert of varied music. This is usually held during Music Week. Visits are made each year to a few neighboring high schools to give others an idea of what the chorus is doing and to receive ideas from them in turn. The I952-53 term was given a final ring by a trip to a music festival in Philadelphia. Mr. Thomas Hartman is faculty business manager for the chorus and other music groups. ORGAN LESSONS During the 1953-54 term seventeen students received organ lessons from the instructor, Mrs. Erma B. Splain. Each student may use the organ for practice one hour each week.

This year the group has sponsored several candy apple sales to earn money to buy F.H.A. jackets for the senior members. They took a special interest in the Junior Red Cross boxes and filled two within the club. The state F.H.A. cook book received recipes from members of the Berwick club. The chapter also con- tributed to the state F.H.A. scholarship fund. The group enjoys many social activi- ties such as parties, dances, and hay rides. The officers are: Rose Hampton, president, Dawn Chepey, vice president, Jac- queline Kreischer, secretary, and Joan Hunter, treasurer. Lillian Silvetti is the recreational leader.

SOPHQMORE CUSTOMS RoYce Collins, Nei, smith Sophomore customs or initiation is the process by which all sophs are made official members of Berwick Senior High. Good sportsmanship is the theme as the fun-loving seniors and the revenge-seeking iuniors put the sophs through the prescribed rules and regulations. The rules of dress vary from year to year but usually the girls are virtually turned into boys and vice versa. Each soph is re- quired to wear a sign giving his full name and homeroom num- ber. To add to the fun buckets are carried for the purpose of transporting the books of the upperclassmen, On this day of horrors each soph must obey all commands of upperclassmen. This may include running errands, furnishing toothpicks for all, proposing to your best friend's best girl, or anything else that may enter the head of the junior or senior making the demands. 1 Lau ff . re a Henrre, Gemldine M ichael, David Klinesmith, Nancy Knowles Thomas Bower, Scott Becktel, Drene Derr, Frances Seaman. xg! if N4- , 5 1-Q. , 1 v 5 1' 't 4114, fx.
