H. S. 'warning .95 we .7AingH VOLUME X Dedication Miss Reinert Miss Ida Reinert, the director of vocal music, is a native of Boyertown. She attended the grades and high school here in Boyertown. She furthered her education at Kutztown State Teachers College, The Sternberg School of Music, Teachers College, Columbia University, and the American Institute of Normal Meth- ods. For the last thirty five years she has taught music in the local schools. At first she taught vocal and instrumental music. After an in- strumental instructor came she began to devote all her time to vocal music. Under her direc- tion are the Junior Chorus, Senior Chorus, Girls' Glee Club and the Boys' Glee Club. Each year Miss Reinert is in charge of the Christmas program and several assemblies which are given by the vocal groups. She also prepares a group of selected voices to attend the County Music Festival. Miss Reinert's hobbies are listening to classical music and collecting Pennsylvania Dutch articles. The H1948 Bear pays tribute to Miss Rein- ert and Mr. Hangen for making us more appre- ciative of the music in our school. It is natural that Paul S. Hangen Jr. should follow a musical career, because his grand- Mr. Hangen father owned and operated a music store in Reading. It was above this store that he was born. He worked there as a boy. 'While in the grades he studied cello and piano. During his senior year in high school he became a cellist in the Reading Symphony Orchestra. He attended West Chester State Teachers College and the Eastman School of Music. He took graduate work at Temple University. He studied at the Berkshire Music Center at Tanglewood, Massachusetts. He taught at Waterville, New York, and Richfield, New York, before coming to Boyertown. This is his third year at Boyertown. He gave up teaching one year to play with the New Orleans Symphony Orchestra. Besides being a music educator he is also a professional cellist. Mr. Hangen spends his summers as a faculty member of the New York State Music Camp teaching cello and harmony. He is also the director of athletics. He has per- formed under the following men: Serge Koussevitsky, Hans Kindler, Howard Hanson, Hifor Jones, Hugh Ross, Ole Winduegstad and Alexander Hillsberg. His chief hobby is designing houses and his greatest ambition is to have a home of his own with a Chinese study in it. He has done an excellent job in building up our band and orchestra. He also organized a dance band which is doing fine work.

Renninger, treasurerg D. Zern, secretary, H. Zajac, president 3 J. Rothenberger, vice president, attending the last show. The Class of '48 has accom- plished a great deal in its jour- ney to stardom. They were the first group to organize in their Sophomore year and also the first seniors to purchase sweat- ers. A dance entitled Spring Frolic was sponsored. Their class play, You're Young Only Twice, was the supreme event of the season. The play requires special praise, not only for having been an excellent pro- duction under the capable direc- tion of Mrs. Arline H. Fryer, but for the time, patience, and hard work spent to create an enjoyable performance. Trips were made during the year to the Berks County Court House and the Metropolitan Edison power plant. Seniors chose the talisman rose as their class flower and have royal blue and gold for class colors. Their appropriate motto is Climb tho' the rocks be rugged. This year there are ninety- four students in the senior class. At the beginning of the term one of the main purposes of William A. Steinmuller, Dean of Boys, Mathematics class meetings was the election of class oiiicers. The following were chosen to serve throughout the semester: Henry Zajac, presidentg Jack Rothenberger, vice presidentg Anita Renninger, secretary, and Dolores Zern, treasurer. The students are separated into four sectionsg however, they have been divided into three homerooms only. Mrs. Arline H. Fryer has charge of the academic group, general and vocational girlsg the commercial group under Guldin G. Yoder, and Robert L. Fleming, home- room teacher of the vocational and general boys. Many of the twelfth grade boys were active in such sports as football, basketball, baseball, and track. Softball was popu- lar among the girls. The vari- ous music and social organiza- tions also attracted quite a number of students. Our seniors have varied am- bitionsg whatever they may be, we wish them every success in the future.

In My Play Bill The Class of 1948 has been one of the most active classes ever to graduate from our school. Many members of the class have already begun Work in their life's profession, while the others have gone through their senior year quite carefree Cexcept for a few tests now and thenl. A great number of the boys are considering joining the various branches of the armed forces and the girls, nursing or college. Out of the ranks of seniors, two clubs have been formed, the Quill and Scroll and the Stamp Club. The girls of Mr. Yoder's homeroom are seen every Tuesday morning with their little paper envelopes tucked neatly under their arms going from room to room collecting money for the U.S. Savings stamps. Those girls who were exceptionally am- bitious, walked up town to purchase the stamps. It wasn't too pleasant during the cold Winter months, but the time was easily made up during the Spring months. We also recall the sports of our school. They are something no one for- gets , they always remain quite vivid in your memory. The first sport in fall is cross country, led by our class president, Henry A. Zajac. As captain of the team he led them on to win the Berks County Cross Country Championship. Football is the next sport on the agenda. Here many seniors were in the limelight. Quarterback Fred Smith forged the way for the team to success, with the help of Bill Levengood, Jack Rothenberger, Sammy Neiman, Dick Steltz, and many of the other notable seniors on the team. All during this time and for the re- mainder of the year we noticed at quite frequent intervals seven girls dressed in red and black satin dresses or heavy sweaters and skirts, according to the occasion. Everyone knows these girls, especially Jackie Kline, the little vivac- ious red-headed senior. At the games it was Jackie who could out shout all the people around her and she instilled this enthusiastic spirit in all the people about her. Marian Moser, Betty Eisenhart, Eleanor Swavely, Pauline Endy, and Nancy Fisher were also among the wear- ers of the red and black. Basketball, like football, drew a great number of the student body to the games. The girls' team was one of the most successful teams welve ever had. The co-captains, Jean Schultz and Marie Mohn, were high scorers throughout the season, trailing close behind were Jackie Kline and Marian Moser. The guards were Mary Jane Kutz and Anita Ren- ninger. Two other senior girls who didn't play basketball but who were most important were Wanda Gresh, manager, and Ruth Yerger, timer. The boys' basketball team included Paul Moatz, who was so tricky with his left-handed shots that few could keep up with him. Bill Levengood, Jack Rothenberger, Sammy Neiman, and Fred Smith were all high in scoring and all exceptionally good players. 'Like our ancestors, We too visited the Court House in Reading, Pa. Who will ever forget the moving picture Call Northside 777 ? It was so typical of what we had witnessed in court that same afternoon. Our class play, You're Young Only Twice, was a Wonderful success, with Harry Reiff in the leading male role as an All-American center, Marguerite Leister, as the fussy old maid school teacher, and Clyde Underkoffler as the fascinating Frenchman who wooed Mar- guerite. These and Marilyn Neiman, Janet Bechtel, Frank Cressman, Wanda Gresh, Harold Weiss, and many others will never forget the nights of rehearsal, Manthorne's after practice and Titus Riegner's Ever Ready Taxi Service . We, the seniors, look back over these few things only to regret that they are finished and we realize how much we had to look forward to. We now look fcgrward to the world as our school of 1 e.

Nevertheless, these students be- long to as many organizations and are as active as any homeroom in B.H.S. Acting as their president is Darwin Schanely, While Rodney Bender holds the position of vice president, and Sher- ril Sell is secretary-treasurer. Some of these students find the Good Grooming Club interesting, While others are for the band, orchestra, library club, or other organizations. They were helpful in aiding the Red Cross Drive and the stamp and bond sales. Although these students may some- times be seen gazing at upper classmen and wishing that they, too, could hold dances and join in the activities of the older students, they are not far behind. They have had practice in organizing their own parties on certain holidays and have served on various committees to help make these parties successful. DRESSING ROOM 18 I7-lj First row: S.

Geiss, an efficient substitute teacher for Mrs. Marjorie R. Bashore, who taught that section earl- ier in the year. The understudies who assist Miss Purnell in governing their class are the president, John Mercerg vice president, Bruce Landisg secretary, Marilyn Ger- hartg and treasurer, William Barr. Those who were elected to help lead the 8-2 homeroom are Thomas Schrump, as presidentg Marvin Miller, as vice presi- dent 5 and Patsy Trout, as secretary- treasurer. Members of both groups participate in the activities of Y-groups, musical organizations, and clubs. Both sets of squirmers are also very active in sports and there is an intense rivalry between them, specially in basketball, as is shown by the fact that both groups have their own cheerleaders. Marilyn Gerhart, Gayle Sands, Barbara Koons, and Joan Burkert lead the cheers for the 8-1 team. Patsy Trout, Charlene Albright, Nancy Lou Fronheiser, and Ethel Moser are the fair rooters in favor of the 8-2's. As Shakespeare once said, All the world's a stage. And all the men and women merely players. This familiar quotation can quite easily be applied to a promising group of young actors, bet- ter known to all of us as the fresh- uTl'1e Taming Cf men. The ninth grade is a step higher than the Squirmer sections and a very important step too, because they have also advanced to the mezzanine of our theatre. DRESSING ROOM 112 1911-First row: D.

The Shrew The freshmen year in Boyertown High School is non-compulsory to rural students who have graduated from the eighth grade in schools throughout nearby districts. For this reason these pupils have been found to be very enthu- siastic and cooperative, thanks to the excellent example set by the town stu- dents. F '1 NWI DRESSING ROOM 121 K9-3?-First row: C.

In April this cast held a cake sale in order to raise funds for the Sen- ior Prom. This is an affair all B.H.S. play characters look for- ward to with much anticipation. When they attend that, they have reached the peak of their career in this great theater. Miss Winifred Y. Moyer is the director with Miss Violet M. White, Mrs. Franklin H. Gottshall, Fran- cis D. Sell, and Chester W. Rohr- bach as producers. There are also a few co-produc- ers. Richard Nester, president, decides where the next billing will be and when. Winnie Balmer, sec- retary, keeps track of what they do and gives them a report of it at their cast get-togethers. Mary Jane Albitz, treasurer, sees to it that there is no money foolishly spent or lost, she also makes a report to the cast so they know what they can do and can't do. April 30 this play cast held a dance for all the other play casts, and of course any of the regular patrons who wished to attend. This was held for the purpose of paying for their part on the program. DRESSING ROOM 19 110-33--Standing: Mr. Rohr bach, W. Bower, S. Delcamp, B. Bumbaugh, K. Schol lenberger, E. Latshaw, R.

Bishe, secretaryg H. K. Johnson, vice presidentg H. D. Johnson, treasurer, and President R.. Erb leave the State after a very busy day at their own theater. On October 9, 1947 one hundred members of the cast of the class of 1949 selected the main characters for their performance in the year 1947-48. This cast, who chose pres- ident Richard Erb as the leading man with vice present Henry K. Johnson, secretary Betty Bishe, and treasurer Henry D. Johnson acting in supporting roles, now have advanced to the role of Jun- iors. When they are not giving per- formances or practicing they have reserved seats in sections 11-A, 11-B, and 11-C where they are di- rected by Harry I. Gilbert, Miss Margaret C. Schmeelk, and Daniel A. Rohrbach respectively. l'Right This Their costumes are made of their favorite colors, red and White. They also use these colors to enliven and beautify many of their perform- ances. One of these Was entitled Holiday Dance which featured Ken Nichols' Orchestra. The large audience included members of The- atre B.H.S., alumni, and friends. This was a great step on the ladder to a successful Junior-Senior Prom. At the prom the Juniors performed in honor of and for the Seniors. Another step that led to the success of this production was a cake sale. All the holidays, such as Hallow- e'en and Christmas, were rightly celebrated by these ambitious Jun- iors. Appropriate decorations, re- freshments, and games were en- joyed by the cast and also their friends. Many Juniors have played other rolls in the many organizations of Theater B. H. S. Out of approxi- mately forty people in the Theatre Band, Eugene Johnson, a Junior, was chosen to represent the Thea- ter in a band made of selected high school students from all over Penn- sylvania. Irene Gehris, another Junior, won a radio in a patron con- test sponsored by the yearbook. Her homeroom, 11-B, also shared high honors with a senior section in the contest. Many members of the cast also participated in the sports, the band, the orchestra, and the chorus of the Theater. Some of the sports they took part in were football, basketball, baseball, and track. Many have made stars of themselves in these sports While many are promising stars of the future. The cast was very sorry to have lost Peggy Kaas and Aubrey Quick, who accepted roles in Pottstown and also Philip West, Who has ac- cepted a military role at Valley Forge Military Academy, Wayne. However, the cast Wishes them the best of luck. June 2, 1948, and the curtains are drawn on the performances of the Junior Cast, class of 1948. They now bring to a close all their roles as Juniors and begin rehearsals for their important, distinguished roles as seniors. Way!! DRESSING ROOM 203 111-AJ First row: B. Keller, M. Bartman, G.

Every Fri- day afternoon dur- ing the school term we gathered together for another matinee presentation. As the house lights were dimmed, silence and an air of expectancy settled over an audi- ence of more than 5 50 people. Once more the stage was set for a program under the direction of the faculty and featuring B o y e r - town High School's own actors and actresses. E a c h homeroom, club, or other acti- vity was given an opportunity to dis- play its talent and ability, therefore : variety of programs was presented. The students' participa- tion was appreciated.

Members of class are D. Grabert, J. Lochman, M. J. Mercer, C. Moyer, B. Crossley, L. Renninger, and R. Renninger. For entertainment between acts in the B. H. S. theater we have an orchestra, band, and dance band, all under the direc- tion of Paul S. Hangen Jr. All groups played for assemblies during the year, the band played for all football games when the weather permitted, and the dance band played for many activities in and outside of school. As extra entertainment the brass quartet, composed of Eugene Johnson, Henry D. John- son, David Schaeffer, and Harold Landis,provided selections which greatly Won the approval of the students. Mr. Hangen also instructs class in conducting, harmony, and theory. All groups played at the Night of Music held early in spring. The Orchestra's playing t h e Bell's of St. Maryi' will long be remembered by all who heard it. Several student conductors from Mr. Hangen's conducting class conducted numbers at the con- cert. During the year a few of the talented musicians of these groups were selected to attend the all-county band and orches- tra, district band, and sometimes the state band, all of which are Worthy achievements. Judging from the fine perform- ances of all the groups during the year you will all agree that we have heard the finest in music at B. H. S. Student conducting' class. D. Schaeffer with baton conducts orchestra consisting of G. Le- fever, M. Specht, R. Erb, D. Spohn, E. Johnson, Mr. Hangen, advisor, stands by ready to give advice. uOi Thee I Sing A special feature of our pro- gram is the vocal department composed of a Junior and Senior Chorus and Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs. These are under the di- rection of Miss Ida Reinert. These groups provided enter- tainment for us at the Christmas program, the Night of Music, and numerous other features during the year. The Glee Clubs are selected by Miss Reinert but the choruses are voluntary. Miss Reinert in her daily music class teaches her pupils all the methods used in good singing. Some of the groups attended the all-county and district music festivals held each year. In these festivals the best vocalists from each high school in the county were selected to participate. Another music class under direction of Miss Reinert composed of eleventh and twelfth grade students. A class of ninth grade vocalistsg Miss Reinert at the piano As a result of the students' hard work and constant drilling, the B. H. S. vocal department has been outstanding in its achievements and has been re- membered by all Who heard them. nHope For .4 FUTURE FARMERS OFFICERS: D. Dotterer, vice presidentg H. K. Johnson, secretaryg H. Zajac, presidentg J. Schonely, reporterg E. Reidenauer, treasurer. The year 1947-1948 saw the Future Farmers ofAAmerica of the Boyertown High School putting on a real show. No year in the history of the chapter can be matched with the ac- complishments of the past school term. The cast of the chapter is composed of forty-one members from grades ten, eleven, and twelve. The director of the show is Mr. Ralph S. DeTurk and the officers are Hen- ry Zajac, president 3 Don- ald Dotterer, vice presi- dentg Eugene Reidenau- er, treasurerg Henry K. Johnson, secretaryg Jack Schonely, re- porterg and Willard Standhardt, police- man. This group has led and guided all members to the following highlights of attainment. Three boys from the chapter attained the sec- ond highest degree in the Future Farmers in the United States. Lewis A. Miller, Robert S. Seip, and Herbert S. Weiss were named Keystone Farmers by the State Association at a meeting at Harrisburg during Farm Show week. Ralph S. De Turk, Supervisor of Vocational Agriculture Many accomplishments A Harvest can be listed such as the purchase of twenty-eight chapter blue and gold jack- ets, pruning orchards, taking a tour to the State Farm Show, taking a tour to the Lehigh Valley Co-op breeding farm, putting on an historical assembly pro- gram, removing all the ashes from the school boiler room, spraying trees and shrubs for people in the community, planting corn, spraying Weeds with 2-4D, buying a sprayer, renovating the shop, painting the Ag Building, caulk- H. Zajac, president of the FFA, breaks ground for the new building being constructed to house implements and farm machinery, while the other members stand by ready to help. ing the building, making new tool cabi- nets, painting and repairing farm ma- chinery, and painting the Ag Building roof. Boyertown Chapter won S123 in prize money at the Kutztown Fair and over S200 in prizes at the Reading Fair. At the present time the boys are engaged in an enormous job of putting up a new Farm Machinery Building, forty feet Wide and eighty-five feet long. , , , C.

The FFA boys moving a portion of ground which was broken at the ceremony before beginning work on their new building. 1 i I I .....i,,,,,l E , . .,,. -.....l.,..,. ., ,,h..,,,.,,.,......l Finished except for interior fittings, the new farm machin- ery building will be one of the finest of its kind in the state. All work on the structure ex- cept placing the cinder-block wall was done by members of the vocational agriculture de- partment under the direct supervision of Mr. DeTurk. And the building will have plenty to house, too. For in the years that Mr. DeTurk has headed the department, the boys have been accumulat- ing machinery. They now have a Ford tractor, a Farmal tractor, two Ironage sprayers, a cultivator, a cornplanter, two disc harrows, two plows, two spring-tooth harrows, two wagons, one mowing machine, and one weeder. In addition to storage facili- ties, a part of the building will be used as a farm machine shop, in which will be placed electric and acetylene welding tools, metal machine lathes, forgings, and blacksmithing and plumbing equipment. This will enable boys in the course to use its facilities for a two- fold advantage: C15 to over- haul their own machines and equipmentg and Q25 to use this repair work for extra class credit. A new feature of the agri- culture program will be the awarding of a bronze medal to the boy who rates highest in the department based on pro- ject work at home, scholastic ability, school activities and leadership, by the DeKalb Agriculture Association, a national society. x f ,Tu 1 91 1 H44 fi-A-, Q 33 ,ii fjgff is vw -f V'tV7M?V umm.

All work on the paper is done dur- ing study periods or after school, due to the fact that school oiers no journal- ism course in its curriculum. The operation of publishing the paper follows a regular pattern. At the beginning of each term several members of the editorial staff are assigned pages of the newspaper. That is, these stu- dents supervise the planning, dummy- ing and other operations on that page. At the regular Wednesday meeting the staff members meet by pages. Peo- ple working on each page meet with the supervisor and other members of that page. At this time a deadline is set fusually two weeks from the time of the meetingl, pages are planned, and stories are assigned. EDITORIAL STAFF members of THE CUB : B. Keller, photographerg, M. L.

Mercer and Editor K. Nyce work frantically pasting up a dummy. At the meeting the Week of the deadline, stories are collected and sent to the typing room. After the stories have been typed they are headlined by staff members, and sent to the printers where the type is set and the stories printed on galley proofs. The galley proofs are sent to The Cub Where they are cut and pasted on dummy sheets. These dummy sheets are the size of the actual newspaper which gives the staH an idea of how the paper will look when it is finished. The dummy sheets are then sent to the printers Where the finished paper is printed. A large portion of credit for the success of The Cub goes to the faculty advisors of the newspaper, Mr. Harry I. Gilbert, first and third page advisor, Miss Mary Lou Purnell, second page ad- visor, Miss Violet M. White, advisor for the fourth page, and Mrs. Harold Bashore who served faithfully as ad- visor for the fourth page before leaving school. For their guidance the members of The Cub staff are truly grateful. REPORTERS-Standing: J. Mercer, J. McElroy, M. Graham, D. Zern, G. Updegrove, J. Rose, D. Stahl, H. Richard. Sitting: D.

Back Stage There's never a dull moment in the life of a B.H.S. student as you will see in the following pages. The school is a bee hive of varied activities from before the time of the entrance bell at 8:30 until long after dismissal time at 3:17. The student's life is not all work without any recreation, as some would have us believe, nor is it all play without sincere study. Activi- ties such as play rehearsals very often require before-and-after-school hours. This type of recreation combines both work and play. Clubs, sports, assem- blies, parties, and dances are spon- sored by the school and the girls and boys of B.H.S. take an active part in affairs such as these. Of course, there is always the ser- ious side of everything and school life is no exception. A certain theory in education is that if the student is given some type of entertainment he wil respond quickly and with more enthusiasm to his studies. Whether we realize it or not, almost every in- stitution of learning includes this sys- tem in its curricula. As a result the student is a more contented and happy person. H. Reiff, W. Matz, W.
