Swinehart, supervising principal of Boyer- town Public Schools. Mr. Swinehart has been asso- ciated with teaching for 42 years, both as principal and teacher. Board of Directors: Harvey D. Ritter, Presidentg Raymond K. Fryer, Secretaryg Charles A. Y. Davidheiser, Treasurer: Marion R. Brumbach, Mem- berg H. Leon Breidenbach, Solicitorg Augustus D. Gresh, Vice President. These are the men who or- ganize and run our very effi- cient hotelg they choose the clerks and map out a program for the guests to follow. Lawrence E. Grim, high school principal, is an alum- nus of B.H.S. He joined the staif in 1923 and received the appointment to his managerial post in 1942. At present he is also Director of Athletics and is ex- lremely interested in the Sport programs of B.H.S. ISI BETWEEN THE BUCK ENDS As we gaze through the hotel register, we find that there are 551 guests registered here recovering from the heat of summer vacation. These vacationers come from many surrounding communities, different walks of life, and many varying interests and activities. This book is a diary of the guests and their adventures in their stay at Hotel B. H. S. Before you delve into the register too deeply, we feel that there are several points which need clarification. Our hotel is rather unique in that we do not call our patrons guests, but the more grotesque name of stu- dents. The managers are called principals, the clerks, teachers, the regis- trars, secretaries, and the bell hops, janitors. Another extraordinary feature is that rather than having a place to spend the evening we have a place for the students to spend the day while the teachers are attempting, to irradicate the proverb, Ignorance is bliss. The hotel in the past has proved to be very exclusive in the fact that only youths between the ages of 11 and 19 are admitted. The students stay is usually six years unless the stay is extended by the request of the hotel personnel. Every Friday afternoon the students attend a matinee performance of some popular stage show supplemented by local talent. Concerts pre sented by the band in their newly acquired uniforms and the orchestra have made the student body music lovers-at least lovers i Q Y Beside the matinee performances, the annual senior class play provides entertain- ment for the entire locality. This year the play was, The House of the Flashing Light, and was a great success. In June the audi- torium witnesses a scene of confusion at Class Night and happiness at the Commence- ment exercises. The ballroom every Friday evening at- tracts many great named bands, the most popular of them being the B. H. S. Dance Band. The most gala event of the B. H. S. Ballroom was the annual Junior reception, better known as the Junior-Senior Prom held on April 11 with dancing to the music of Bob Hartman's Orchestra. The Good Grooming Club, one of the more active junior high school clubs, was the sponsor of a Junior High School Prom held on April 29 with the B. H. S. Dance Band pro- viding the music. This was a new venture but proved to be a success due to the efforts of the club. The ballroom can easily be converted into a basketball, volleyball, or indoor tennis court which attracts the many athletic-mind- ed students. The Gym Exhibition held on 9 March 25 and 28 filled the gym to capacity, with the students presenting a superb per- formance. You have probably concluded that the major part of the time is occupied by enter- tainment rather than Uprancing up the flow- ery path of knowledge Cwhich is found to be infested with many thornsj. We wish to assure that this is false. You have but to eavesdrop at any door of the hotel when an English class is in session to hear something like this hurled at a highly-dazed group: The student was severely reprimanded by the disciplinarian for his contumacious mis- demeanor. If you can manage to stagger away under the heavy burden of words you might learn that the centrifugal force of a rotating object is directly proportional to the mass, or weight, of the object and to the square of the speed, and is inversely propor- tional to the radius of rotation. These are only few examples of what a student must try to grasp in a typical day. We sincerely hope that this has been beneficial to you, the reader, and that it may have cleared up any questions which may have arisen concerning .... Hotel B.. H.

H. S. this winter was provided by our boys varsity and junior varsity basketball teams. Varsity Coach Fleming and Jun- ior Varsity Coach Rohrbach's charges presented exceptionally good showings in their games and were well-supported by the student body and townspeople. High scorer on the fighting varsity squad was Captain Bruce Bernhart, who sent 156 points through the hoop, topping Jim Albitz's 1944 league record by seven points. Soup Campbell was next in line for scoring hon- ors for the Red and Black. The Bears wound up on the third rung of the Northern Divi- sion of the Berks County League with a record of six wins and four losses. They were defeated twice by Hamburg, who copped the division crown, and twice by Amity, who took the runnerup spot. Kutztown, Fleetwood, and Oley each fell victims to the Battling Bears twice. The Baby Bears, captained by Freddy Smith and Jack Rothen- berger, clinched the Junior Var- sity crown in the Northern divi- sion with a record of fifteen wins and seven losses. However, in the county playoffs with the Wil- son Presidents, the Jayvees bow- ed 40-34. There was also a Future Jun- ior Varsity team which showed Iine form in their games. The Boyertown lassies com- pleted their season with two vic- tories and six defeats. Due to the lack of a coach, Boyertown I 4 1 I seemed doomed to go without a girls squad this year, until High School Principal Lawrence E. Grim, who had formerly taught physical education in B. H. S., consented to take charge. He was relieved in January by Miss Marcella Wise, girls health in- structor. This summary of the 1946-47 basketball season would not be complete without mention of the attractive new scoreboard and clock. The scoreboard is oper- ated by a series of buttons on a panel. The system is so arranged that any number may be pro- duced. The clock is white for the first seven minutes of each quarter, red for the next 55 sec- onds, and again becomes white for the remaining seconds of play. R. Campbell, B. Bernhart, and R. Reidenauer anxiously await the bsll while V. Prutzman and fi Kutztown man jump. An Oley damsel makes a vain attempt to stop a shot by A- Stitzel, of Boyertown, in a game at Oley.

Fry, baseball coach and physical education instructor for the male guests of our hotel. Baseball Prospects for a successful baseball season in 1947 are optimistic. The team, which is strength- ened by the return of seven lettermen, should make a good showing in the coming season. The team faces a tough schedule, but Coach Warren O. Fry is confident that the boys will come out on top. Last year the baseball team completed a suc- cessful season with ten victories against only three reverses and one tie. Boyertown Won the championship of the Southern Division of Berks County. The fine pitching of Bruce Bernhart and Paul Moatz along with the able receiving of Vic Prutzman proved too strong a battery for most opposition. Congratulations are due last year's team for its fine performance. Here's hoping for an even better season in 1947. I 9 4 First Row: P. Ludy, R. Camp- bell, L. Stimmel, M. Balmer, V Prutzrnan, B.

H541 Members of the literary staff of the Bear rack their tired brains to prepare- copy and caption pictures for the 1947 issue. To them falls the dif- ficult task of making the yearbook interesting to its readers. Staff mem- bers pictured here are: J. Bechtel, M. Kutz, M. Leister, W. Gresh, J. Schultz, J. Drumheller, M. Nagel, G. Lefevre, D. Grofe, D. Geschwind, literary editor: Miss Margaret C. Schmeelk, literary advisor. .r ' The Book ppears - - - On Jul I! The duty of the Bear staff is to produce the hotel annual. This is a collection of pic- tures of the guests and personnel of the hotel at work and play. This year's theme, adopted by the staif, is Hotel B. H. S. After adopting the theme, the various staffs did their best to express this theme throughout the book through clever headlines and write-ups, divider pages and motifs, and pictures comparable to hotel scenes. The work is hard, the thanks are meager, but the remuneration is gotten by a success- ful yearbook. The reward for a job well done is the annual pilgrimage to New York City to at- tend the Columbia Scholastic Press Associa- tion. This year nineteen student journalists from the Bear and Cub attended the conferences on March 20, 211 82 22. From these conferences new ideas were instilled in the minds of the students which aid in publishing next year's annual. A challenge is presented to each new staff at the beginning of each year with the impressive record set up by preceding staffs. N. S. P. A., a national critical service, award- ed to the 1943 yearbook the highest possible rating, that of All-American. In 1944, 1945, and 1946 a First Class Honor Rating was presented to the yearbook. It is the ambition of the staffs each year to equal or surpass the previous records. It is only with team- work and cooperation that this goal can be reached. On these pages can be seen the energetic students who have given their all to make this yearbook a success. The business sta.H counts its pen there would be no yearbook. Discuss McCusker, and R. Emes. nies. These are the students who hold the purse strings of the yearbook. They solicit ads from the manufacturers and merchants of Boyertown and vicinity and pound the pavements in quest of patrons. Without a financial system ing problems encountered in their work are: C.

The news in the high school is gathered by wide-awake report- ers who work on a system of beats This means each re- porter is assigned to see certain teachers at regular intervals for news on their class activities and other events in which they take part. The grade schools use a different system: each home- room writes its own news, which is then sent to the Cub each month for publication. Two meetings are held each week, one for instruction and the other for consultation. Meetings are held each Tuesday during the study period in the typing room. These Tuesday meetings are used for instruction in the style of writing various types of news- paper articles. At these meet- ings new members are able to learn something about journal- ism while old members refresh their memories. The meetings held during the Wednesday study period in the library are designed for meet- ings by pages. Four members of the editorial staff each have charge of one page of the paper. They have reporters working with them to whom the stories are assigned. It is the duty of the page editors to see that the stories are turned in to them in time to meet the deadline. The three faculty members who serve as advisors are Mrs. Marjorie R. Bashore, advisor for the sports pageg Miss Mary Lou Purnell, editorial page advisor: and Mr. Harry I. Gilbert, advisor for the first and third pages. Their capable guidance con- tributed much to making this year's Cub a real success. iTop leftl Seated: Emily Austrevich, News Editor: M.

The concert was given before a capacity audience immedi- ately after the arrival of the new band uniforms. These gay, streamlined uniforms were received with great enthusiasm. A great help in the uniform drive was the chancing off of articles which was sponsored by the Lion's Club. But these were not the only people whom the band serves. The true guests of B. H. S., the students, are entertained during assembly each Friday by one of the organiaztions of the instrumental music depart- ment. The Future Farmers of America were invited to join the band in presenting the assembly program, the Farm and Home Hour. This year, as in former years, the band participated in the Memorial Day ser- vice. A real asset to the school's morale, the band played at all of the football games, adding color and Spirit. The band is composed of students, six of whom are seniors, from grades seven to twelve. Like the other organizations of B. H. S., the band has its own officers. Durrell Blank is manager, Harold Landis, librarian, Arland Longacre, assistant librarian, and Janet Bech- tel, treasurer. Band First Row: G. Schoch, M. Leister, J. Pannebecker, Fourth Row: L.

E601 Singing Waiters The vocal department of our hotel is under the supervision of Miss Ida M. Reinert. Her performers provide us with dinner music, musicales, and other types of entertainment. Miss Reinert sponsors these clubs: Girl' Glee Club, Boys' Glee Club, Junior Chorus, and Senior Chorus. All Junior high school pupils have a period of vocal music in which they study operas, listen to arias, do sight-reading and listen to records. For Senior high school students this subject is elective and many of them are taking advantage of the opportunity. The Glee Clubs are groups of selected voices but the chorus is open to all Who are gifted vocally. They must be able to sight read well and maintain a part. These pupils are given the opportunity to study stand- ard part songs and present them in an artistic manner. They try to develop good tone quality and enunciation and a feeling for expression. Simple breathing exer- cises and the singing of the vowels on a given pitch are used to develop a free production of tone. Each year We are favored by one or more nights of music in which the vocal ensemble participates. The best singers are chosen to attend district and state festi- vals. Another important event is the Alvin F. Kemp Night of Music. All Berks County high schools send a group of selected Miss Ida M. Remert dlrec X , Vug. I V . AV v za. voices. This program is held in one of the high schools of the county. We are grateful to the performers who put forth such great efforts so that our hotel may be Well represented. X tor of vocal music. Miss Reinert is always re- sponsible for our fine Christmas programs. This program is usually presented by Junior High School students. JUNIOR CHORUS First Row: J. Conrad, M. E. Mutter, P.

The membership this year totalled forty boys from nine different townships, some members living ten miles from school. During the fall term the members com- pleted their home projects and harvested the corn crop. The Reading Fair was the first place of exhibition of the chapter exhibit based on Saving Feeds By Stopping The Leaks. The Boyertown exhibit placed first in the school contest, winning 545. The Future Farmers also entered many animal judging contests. Robert Seip and Eugene Reidenauer won third and fourth place re- spectively in the dairy judging contest. The chapter exhibit then moved on to the Allentown Fair where it placed first over seven competing schools from Bucks, Lehigh, Montgomery, and Berks counties. A prize of H521 532.50 was awarded the chapter. Following the Allentown Fair the exhibit was placed in Mest's window for a week for an inspection by the people of Boyertown. In October the exhibit was displayed at the Myerstown Fair where it again won a first prize of 31500. Under the able leadership of President Herbert Weiss, the Chapter engaged in re- modeling the agricultural lavatory roomg had a member, Henry Zajac, elected president of the Junior Classg took a few field trips in pruning trees, bought purebred Berkshire hogs and purebred Holstein calves for project work, bought a new tractor mowing machine, and had each member start a scrapbook of school notes, lessons, and materials. The chapter was signally honored when Victor Prutzman was nominated the most valuable football back in Berks countyg Wil- liam Hallman was elected to the All-County Teamg William Magee was a second string M. Miller, W. Levengood, M. Rothenberger looking for the trade marks of a pure bred Heifer. PERSONNEL All-County player and Paul Moatz, William Levengood, and Ralph Moyer were full-time B.H.S. varsity players. At no other time in the history of the chapter have so many boys been out for athletics as were this year. The crowning glory of the chapter was the selection to display an exhibit at the State Farm Show, Harrisburg. Seven schools from the State of Pennsylvania are selected for this honor. This is the third time that an exhibit was shown at the State Farm Show by the Boyertown group. The bitterest dis- appointment of the year came to the boys when they were awarded fourth place. Quak- ertown, who had been defeated twice by Boy- crtown, won first. The chapter placed a member, Frank Kleman, in the State Future Farmer Band. He was taken along to Kansas City to the National Convention and also to the State Farm Show to play in this famous band. ltilil The F.F.A. officers, D. Dutterer, J. Schonely, W. Mest, H. Weiss, H.

Some are formed to do tasks in certain depart- ments, some for furthering our knowledge in various iieldsg and many for social enjoy- ment. The Future Teachers of America is a group of young people interested in becoming teachers or nurses. The chapter was the seventh in the state to receive recognition by the National Education Association. This year the club presented an outstanding play Pest Guest . The Library Club under the direction of Mrs. Marcia Z. Krysa did wonderful work in securing references for our teachers and stu- dents. At all times one can walk into the library and be met by a beautiful display. Every holiday they have an extra special dis- play. These students work many long hours before and after school checking and shelv- ing books. Boy Scout No. 4 consists of rural stu- dents of the hotel. There are ten tenderfoot scouts who are all working to be second class scouts. The boys are divided into two pa- trols, the Flying Eagle patrol and the Wolf patrol. The scouts plan to meet during the summer and go to a camp. Members of the troop committee are: Lawrence Grim, chair- man, Paul Hangen and Franklin Gottshall, members.

The Current Events Club, a newcomer this year, is made up of senior high students interested in foreign and domestic affairs. They are the future diplomats and congress- men of our nation.

The Varsity Lettermen's Club is under the supervision of Francis D. Sell. The club is exclusively for the boys who have earned varsity letters in the various sports. The club sponsored the intra-mural basketball games played during lunch time. Members of the club served as referees and scorekeep- ers. The more athletic guests of the hotel were enrolled in the Girls' Athletic Associa- tion and the Boys' Gym Club. Here the stu- dents develop their skills on the mats and other apparatus. The members of these clubs form the backbone of the annual B. H. S. Gym Exhibition. E661 One of the largest groups of clubs is the Y clubs. The clubs are the Tri Hi-Y, Jun- ior Tri Hi-Y and Junior Hi-Y. There is also a Gra-Y program for grade school children in which senior high students are used as instructors. Several Junior Hi-Y boys went to confer- ences in Maryland and Stroudsburg. This year they started a Bicycle Safety League and also had the Sixth Annual Train Race. The Tri Hi-Y had a Valentine Dance this year to raise money to send to the World Youth Fund. This fund is to build up Y clubs and Y. M. C. A.'s all over the world which had been damaged by the war. The Tri Hi-Y went with the Junior Hi-Y to the Kutztown District Rally. These two clubs also had a series of talks by pastors and prominent businessmen for their Youth Problems Dis- cussion Course. The Y. M. C. A. Movement in Boyertown is led by Henry R. Carichner, Central East District secretary. A very practical club is the Handwriting Club. As its name suggests, the members practice and drill to improve their penman- ship. In much the same order is the Art Club, composed of students who show a special skill in art work.

Each student is required to belong to one of the clubs and meetings are held every Thurs- day afternoon during the fourth period. The importance of clubs in school life is recognized by the number of new and differ- ent organizations Which have been introduced into Boyertown High School this term. Clubs teach the pupil to cooperate With others, JUNIOR HI-Y Without cooperation and team work the activ- ities of the group cannot be easily carried out. They teach citizenship, meetings held in a democratic manner serve to lay a pattern for good citizens. Then, speciic clubs aid their members in specific Ways. For example, the Y clubs emphasize brotherhood and racial tolerance. Their good times go hand and hand with a real national service. The Good Grooming Front Row: D. Steltz, D. Mackey, R. Miller, L.
