Our theme, The Civil War, was chosen over numerous suggestions given by the staff members. In proceding through the book, you will notice that each of our dividers is ingeniously worked into this theme. Since this year is included in the celebration of its cen- tennial, the theme is most appropriate. You will also discover a different type of divider in this volume. We have used paper sculpturing, a new and different replacement for the photo- graphy used in other yearbooks. Although this was difficult and took a lot of time and patience, our Art staff was fortunate in having the help of Mrs. Gene Weisbecker. With their combined efforts the resulting dividers have turned out to be exceptionally attractive and eye-catching. We wish to thank Mr . Ernest Rohrbach for his full cooperation as our photographer. We are also grateful to our typing staff, who diligently typed the write- ups and other material to meet the deadlines . A sincere thank you is given also to Mr. Carmine Pennella and Mr. Thomas Walsh for writing the In Memoriam. We would also like to thank Miss Maria Smith for her help with the year- book. DEDICATION We, the class of 1962, dedicate this, our Tracer, to our friend and teacher, Mrs. Gene Weisbecker. In this way we wish to ex- press our appreciation for her generous and unselfish work in the class plays and in the preparation of the art work for this year- book. We also wish to acknowledge the tireless hours that she has spent working on the many projects of our community. Her many contributions have bettered the efforts of both the school and the community.

CLASS COLORS CLASS FLOWER Brown and Beige Carnation 16 IN MEMORIAM DAVID ALLEN HARTLINE May 31, 1944- -December 12, 1961 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23 It is clearly impossible to capture in swirling characters on a printed page the depth and breadth of a boy ' s life. And yet, we, the faculty and students of Brandywine, feel an attempt must be made, because we knew David Hartline, and because he brought human goodness and laughter into every life his life touched . David ' s interests ranged from acting to hunting and he pursued them with an enthusiasm that was truly astonishing. We can never forget his performance in the senior class play nor the pride he took in serving as treasurer, chaplin and parliamentarian of the F.F.A. He was an ardent follower of the basketball team and an active participant in school sponsored activities . In a word, David was devoted to his school. Our days at Brandywine and, what is more important, our lives have been im- measurably enriched by our association with David Hartline. And because he is not beside us in cap and gown on this, our graduation day, we, the class of 1962, dedicate this page to an unforgettable classmate and sincere friend. This memoriam was written through the combined efforts of Mr. Walsh and Mr. Pennella. It reflects the feelings of the ad- ministration, the faculty, and the Class of 1962. 17 Left to Right: Secretary--]. Arnold, Treasurer--N. Fegely, Vice President--S. Shane. President--C. Radcliffe. OUR OFFICERS AND ADVISORS Left to Right: D. Sandman, M. Smith, A. Long 18 TIMOTHY B. ADAMS Academic Tim will long be remembered for his leadership abilities in the office as President of the Student Council. He could often be heard telling Mr. Long to bum Rosie at the stake. Besides having basket- ball and soccer ability, he was an accomplished golfer. Take heed Washington, this fellow plans to become President of the United States.

CHRISTINE C. ANGSTADT Academic Chrisy disliked getting up in the morning as much as she liked candy. Although she had everyone thinking she was quiet and sub- dued, we were all startled by her sudden outbursts and disagreements with Jay in history class. Chris was most often found in the school library helping Miss Smith. Christine ' s dream is to become a psy- chiatric aide. Basketball Manager 1,2,4; Hockey Manager 2,3; Chorus 1,2,3,4; County Chorus 3; Varsity Club 2.3,4; FHA 4; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. JUDY E. ARNOLD Business As Grandma and Sarah Jo, Chud will always be remem- bered for her fine acting in both the junior and senior class plays. Although she was busy as a receptionist at Dr. Graver ' s office, she found time for numerous activities. She was on the starting team in hockey, but oh! --those offsides. Judy ' s future as a secretary looks promising.

BONA WITZ Academic Calie could have been nominated for Basketball ' s Hacker of the Year Award. At times his fouling gave his teammates, not to mention Coach Millard, some anxious moments, but he was always in there fighting, and proved a great asset to the team. Cal ' s am- bition is to attend the University of Pitt and become a mechanical engineer.

BOND Academic Bondy, an employee at Mertz ' s Store, could most often be seen removing his shoes soon atter seating himself in the classroom. Billy was always ready with a smile for anyone who spoke to him. Seeing the world and making a million are included in his plans for the future. Basketball 1,2; Soccer 1,2,3; Chorus 1,2,3,4; Hi-Y 1,2; Varsity Club 3,4; Tracer Stiff, photography 4; Class Treasurer 1. Industrial Arts ROBERT C. BOWER Bobby was noted for his hilarious laugh and his extensive knowledge of cars. You could usually find him driving a blue Ply- mouth somewhere around Topton. Never at a loss for words, Bobby was always found talking bis way out of a ticklish situation. His main dislike was school. At the present time his future is undecided. Band 2; Journalism 1; FFA 3; Class Play 4. 20 MARY L. BOYER General Academic Mishi ' s goal is easy to guess when you realize that she belonged to every musical activity offered by the school. When she wasn ' t playing the piano or directing the Band and Chorus, she was playing a varsity sport or cheerleading. Mary plans to attend West Chester and become a music teacher.

CAROLYN A. BOYER Business Carolyn could always be heard groaning during the last period of the day because she had to go to work after school. But going to work did not stop her from watching television, which was her fav- orite pastime. Carolyn ' s future is bound to make her profit in any chosen field. Chorus 1; FHA 4; Business Club 2; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. JAY B. DeLONG General Academic In spite of the fact that Yaj had an uncontrollable temper which flared up at any moment, he was still popular with his class- mates. The project Jay worked on most during his senior year was to get just one knock-off period in English from Mr. Pennella. Brandywine ' s Jose Himanes afforded us many hours of amusement. Jay ' s future is undecided. Basketball 1.2; Baseball 1,2,3,4; Soccer 1,2,3,4; Wrestling 3; Band 1; 2,3,4; Chorus 4; Journalism 1; Visual Aids Club 2; Varsity Club 2,3; Tracer Staff, Sports 4. 21 MABEL E. DeLONG Academic One of the more quiet girls in the senior class, Mabel was usually found studying or reading. She was always ready to give help to any- one in need and everyone with a problem could go to her for advice. Although her future is undecided, her helpful nature will make her a success in any field. Band 1,2,3; FHA 4; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. GENEVIEVE J. DeRENTlIS Business Genny, captain of the colorguard, did much to make our band front appear well-groomed and attractive. As she was the tallest female in our class, no one appreciated getting the job of guarding her in gym class basketball games. Her ambition is to become a private secretary. Basketball 3; Band 3,4; Captain of Colorguard 4; Tri-Hi-Y Club 1; Business Club 2,3; Judo Club 4. EARLD. ECKERT Industrial Arts Earl was another member of our class who was easily distinguished by his unusual laugh. His love for fun always brought about situations where his above mentioned ability was put to good use. Earl was most often found driving his Chevy or doing something with the gang. His ambition is to become a first rate mechanic. Drill Team 1; Visual Aids Club 2,3,4. 22 KENNETH H. EISENHART Industrial Ans Nugget faithfully attended all the school dances and turned out to be the best male dancer in the class. Even though Kenny was al- ways teased about his height, he showed everybody by growing a few inches during his last years in school. Kenny ' s immediate plans for the future include joining the Navy. Visual Aids 1; Journalism 2; Stage Crew 4; Class Play 4. KARON L. FAUST Business Fausty was often found at her front window, watching all the scenery that went by. She will be remembered for her flag -raising pa jama parties and her delicious pineapple -upside down cakes. Holding Varsity letters in both hockey and basketball, she helped us win many of our games. Karon plans to enter the Secretarial pro- fession after high school. Basketball 1,2,3,4; Hockey 1.2,3,4; Softball Manager 3,4; Journalism 1; Varsity Club 2,3,4; Class Play 4; Honor Society 3,4; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. Academic NANCY C. FEGELY As treasurer of our class, Red faithfully reminded us of our un- paid class dues and of how little money we had. We were grateful that Nancy never complained about the many classes she had to sacrifice as Photography Editor of the Yearbook. She is going to East Stroudsburg Teachers College to become a Phys. Ed. teacher. Basketball 1,2,3.4; Softball 1,2,3,4; Hockey 1,2,3,4; Band 1.2,3,4; County Band 2,3.4; District Band 3.4; State Band 3,4; Dance Band 1,2,4; Chorus 1,2,3,4; Varsity Club 2,3,4; Class Play 3,4; Honor So- ciety 3,4; Student Council 1,2,3; Tracer Staff, Photography Editor 4, Class Treasurer 3,4. 23 ARLENE L, FENSTERMACHER Business Leanie, as her close friends called her, liked shrimp, spaghetti, and pizza, in that order. Her only dislike was Chevies. Blue being her favorite color is no coincidence, since her eyes are also of the same hue. She supported our cause by being a typist on the yearbook staff. This gives a hint that her future plans are for the secretarial field. FHA 1; Business Club 2; Honor Society 4; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. CAROL A. FRITCH Academic Playing Gracie May, the girl with the ttch in Headin For A Weddin, was one of this girl ' s accomplishments. Never at a loss for words, she was regarded by the class as quite a conversationalist. Carol did a remarkable job as Literary Editor of the Tracer. Her future plans coincide with this title, since her goal is to become a secondary English teacher.

LINDA M. GABLE Business Lively and talkative, Linda was always ready to tell a joke. As a staunch supporter of Rock n ' Roll, she could always be found at a dance trying out the latest steps. She was usually busy after school with a part-time job which attested to her ability as a secretary. Business Club 2,3; Judo Club 4; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. 24 PAULENE J. GEIGER Business Paulene could most often be heard saying Hey you to no one in particular. She was an ardent fan of knock-off periods and could think of many arguments in favor of them. Her greatest dislike was apricots. Red contributed to our class by serving as a member of the yearbook staff. Paulene wants to be a waitress which will prepare her for duties as a housewife. FHA 1; Journalism Club 2; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. VIRGINIA L. GOLL Academic Leadership is one of Ginger ' s most outstanding qualities. As Editor-in-Chief of the Tracer and Student Director of our two class plays, she displayed this characteristic with a capital L. Her ver- satility was shown by her participation in softball, hockey, and cheerleading. Reading Hospital will prepare Ginger for her career as a nurse.

ARTHUR GREISS Vocational Agriculture Sonny, a faithful member of the FFA, held important offices in this organization during the past four years. If anybody wanted to know anything about guns or cars, he was the man to consult. This friendly and helpful attitude will help him to fare well in his future life. FFA 1,2.3,4. 25 CARL K, GUINTHER Business Carl, a lively and amiable boy, was well liked by all his class- mates. If you would check the absentee list, you would find Carl ' s name there quite often during the hunting season. His love for hunt- ing was almost equaled by his love for cars. Although most of the class doesn ' t know it, Carl ' s ambition in life is to become a barber. Stage Crew 1; Visual Aids Club 2; Photography Club 3; Judo Club 4. BARRIE L. HASSLER Academic A senior of few words our Barrie never lacked school spirit. He was always ready to lend a hand in all senior activities not to men- tion his presence at all school activities. To see the world courtesy of the United States Navy is included in Barrie ' s ambition for the future. Chess Club 4; Tracer Staff, Photography 4. Industrial Arts WILLIAM D. HERTZOG II Billy, our class ' double for Tony Perkins, had a sweet, angelic look which made him appear perfectly innocent. Although he acted quiet at times, his fun-loving personality was obvious when he was swimming, hunting, or ice skating. Billy ' s artistic knack for making things with his hands gives a hint of his plans for after graduation. Band 1,2,3,4; Stage Crew 1; Visual Aids Club 2; Photography Club 3. 26 TERESA A. HILBERT Academic As Widow Blairhouse, a feud -starting hillbilly in the senior class play, Tessie added much to the enjoyment of the audience. She was very active in school affairs and lent her voice and piano playing to the chorus for four years. Tess plans to become a cosme- tologist after she graduates. Basketball 1,2,3,4; Softball 1,2,4; Hockey 1,2,3,4; Dance Band 4; Chorus 1,2,3,4; Journalism 1; Varsity Club 2,3,4; Class Play 4; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. NANCY L. HOPPES Business Wilt Hoppes was certainly accurately nicknamed. Nancy, al- ways active in school affairs, played the clarinet in the Senior Band for four years. We will never forget the fun she helped to create at pa jama parties and dances. We are sure Nancy will do well in the future in office work. Basketball 1,2,3; Hockey 2,3.4; Softball 1; Band 1,2,3,4; Journalism 1.2.4. DEAN S, KELLER Academic Dean, the latest addition to our class, joined our ranks only for the senior year. When not in the dark room developing pictures he had taken for the Tracer, he could be found hard at work with our famous stage crew. Concerning his future plans, Dean is as yet undecided. Photography Club 4; Class Play 4; Tracer Staff, Photography 4. 27 SANDRA A. KERN General Academic As the best female athlete of our class, Sandie set a record when she broke three of Daniel Boone ' s hockey sticks during one game. Reporting the many wins and few losses of our teams was her job as Editor of Girls Sports for the Tracer. Sandie ' s future is un- decided, but she hopes to go into the field of recreation. Basketball 1,2,3.4; Hockey 1,2,3,4; Softball 1.2,3,4; Journalism 1; Varsity Club 2,3,4; Tracer Staff, Girls ' Sports Editor 4; Band 1; Class Play 3. GEORGIA NNE KISTLER Business That did it could usually be heard by George when things didn ' t go as planned. Dancing is her favorite pastime and she can always be found where popular music is being played. George ' s well-rounded personality will surely bring her success in her future years, although her plans are undecided. Basketball Manager 3,4; Cheerleading Alternate 2; Chorus 1; Journa lism 1,2; Business Club 3; FHA 4; Class Play 3,4; Tracer Staff, Lit- erary 4. JANET A. KLINE Academic Janet shocked everyone in her senior year by showing up one day with her hair color fitting the trite phrase black as coal. Besides being a vocalist for the Dance Band and occasionally soloist for the chorus, Janet also played the saxophone in the Senior Band. At the present time she is undecided about her future. Band 1,2,3,4; Chorus 2,3,4; County Chorus 2,3,4; Journalism Club 1; German Club 4; Class Play 3,4; Class Secretary 1; Class Treasurer 2; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. 28 ROBERTO. KRAMER Business Alphabetically the first in the class of 62 ' s set of identical twins, Bob was the more reserved of the two. He could most readily be found reading the newspaper or watching a newsreel. He claimed his pet peeve was big shots. His love for music can best be seen in his ambition to become a concert pianist. Visual Aids Club 1; Stage Crew 2; Photography Club 3; Library Club 4. WILLIAM 0. KRAMER Business Good humored and jolly, never sad, that ' s our Bill. As the only boy brave enough to venture into our shorthand classes. Bill soon displayed the lighter side of a seemingly quiet member of our class. Concerning his future plans. Bill is as yet undecided, but he hopes to enter into the business world. Visual Aids Club 1; Photography Club 3. NANCY M. KUNKEL Business Nancy ' s unmistakable giggle could be heard in the halls during school. She could be seen in gym class innocently asking, Did I walk with the ball again? She attributed greatly to the Senior Chorus with her fine soprano voice and helped to make several class assemblies a success. Nancy ' s plans after graduation include be- coming a receptionist. Chorus 1,2,3,4; Journalism Club 1,2; Dramatics and Debating Club 1; Judo Club 4; Class Play 3,4; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. 29 SUSAN K. LANTZ General Academic The old adage all good things come in little packages holds true for this girl. Suzie was always ready with her artistic abilities to help make class functions a success. As a true artist she always took into consideration relative proportion. She was usually found driving The Pride of the Foreign Cars. Susan ' s future includes either interior decorating or teaching art. Hockey 1; Cheerleading 1,2,3,4; Band 1,2,3,4; Majorette 1.2,3.4; Varsity Club 2,3,4; Class Play 2,3; Tracer Staff, Art Editor 4; Qass Secretary 2 . SHARON L, MOLL Academic Everyone believed that mighty little Sharon was sweet and quiet. That is, unless they happened to sit next to her at basketball games. An ardent musician, she played two musical instruments and sang in the chorus. She participated in both class plays and did much to make them successful. Sharon ' s plans include becoming an elementary teacher. German 4; Class Play 3,4; Dance Band 2,4; Band 1,2,3,4; Chorus 1, 2,3,4; Tri Hi Y 1; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. REBECCA S. NORRIS Academic Becky involved in many activities, never seemed to lose her pep. Her cheerleading ability and her performances in the class plays attested to this fact. Our Miss Apple Queen was President of the Tickler ' s Society. As a majorette, Becky helped to draw the applause of spectators at parades. She hopes to become a dental hygienist. Cheerleading 1,2,3,4; Majorette 1,2,3,4; Chorus 1; Varsity Club 2, 3,4; Class Play 3.4. 30 FAYE A. OSWALD Business Faye could very likely have won a booby prize in bowling com- petition. Her greatest feat at the Crystal Bowl was sliding down one of the alleys. She could most often be found with George rvery Sunday night at Hamburg. Though Faye has no definite plans for the future, the secretarial field will prove successful for her. Journalism 1,2; FHA 4; Tracer Staff, Typing 4. CHARLES W. RADCLIFFE Academic Chuck, president of both the Senior Qass and the Varsity Club, will be remembered by Brandywine fans for his shooting accuracy in basketball and his pitching in baseball. A keen sense of reasoning and Trig A ' s should be of assistance to this future businessman. Al- bright Coll ege will occupy Chuck ' s next four years.

SAMUEL B, REA DINGER Vocational Agriculture Sam proved to be quite successful in his chosen course and his name always appeared on the Honor Role. Red made our class proud of him by getting practically every available award in his field. Although he is undecided about his job choice, we are sure he will do well in anything he tries. FFA 1,2,3,4; Honor Society 4; Wrestling 4. 31 RAYMOND D. REED Academic Reedy, one of Mr. Pennella ' s best wrestlers, starved himself all season in order to make his weight class. Raymond gained dis- tinction for his performance on the tenor sax in the band. He was also noted for his many and frequent trips to the lavatory during school. Reedy plans to further his education after high school. Basketball 1; Wrestling 3,4; Band 1,2,3,4; Dance Band 1,2,4; Visual Aids Club 2; Chess Club 1,4; Tracer Staff, Literary 4; Class President 1. RAY H. ROHRBACH Vocational Agriculture Promises, Promises, Promises was the saying heard whenever Ray was in the vicinity. The list of things he liked could fill this page, but probably would be headed by chicken in the basket. Even though Ray ' s future is undecided, his amiable disposition will win him many friends and enable him to succeed in any field of work. Band 1,2; Chess Club 1; FFA 1.2,3.4. • r TIMOTHY A. ROMIG Academic Because of Pastor Romig our class will remember that a white rose is as purty as a red one. He could often be heard wishing Calie bad luck before a basketball game. As the sound effects man of our class.hemadea fine turtle and a loud sports car. Muhlenburg College will occupy Timmy ' s next four years.

SHANE Academic If anything had to be done, Dimples was the one to ask. She was sure to do her usual best at any task, whether it was co-editing the yearbook, acting in the class plays, or cheering for the basket- ball team. Sandy ' s kind and sympathetic nature is bound to be an asset in her chosen career as a Medical Secretary.

KAREN A. SHEARER Business Karen suffered from type casting in her performance as a dumb blonde in the junior class play and a hard-working, non-speaking hillbilly in the senior class play. Two years in the Honor Society should dispel any conclusions drawn from the above sentence. Karen plans to enroll in Comptometer school after she graduates. Hockey 1,2; Basketball 1,2,3,4; Hockey Manager 4; Service Club 1, 2; Varsity Club 3,4; Class Play 3,4; Honor Society 3,4; Class Secre- tary 3; Tracer Staff, Business Manager 4. NANCY R. STAUFFER Academic Ouija Stauffer, a member in good standing of the Ticklers ' Society, spent her senior year combing someone else ' s hair. We will never forget her magnificent performance as Bertha in Headin For A Weddin, and the riots she helped to create at play practices, pajama parties, and in class. Nancy ' s future plans include a nursing career. Basketball 1,2,3,4; Hockey 1,2,3,4; Cheerleading 1,2,3,4; Chorus 1; Varsity Club 2,3,4; Class Play 3,4; Tracer Staff, Art.4. 33 ARDELLA L. SWOYER General Academic Dell found her greatest enjoyment was playing bump on ice skates. Her versatility was shown Ijy her interest in the many func- tions of the school. As a majorette in the Senior Band, she helped greatly to dress up our band front. Delia loves anything pertaining to art, but her greatest ambition is to become a practical nurse.

TREXLER Academic Charlie, The Tige r, Trexler could most often be found trying to argue a point with a teacher or blaming something on Raymond. We will remember him for his colorful outfits and his stupendous musical ability. Charlie ' s greatest gift to humanity is the ability to make people laugh. This talent is sure to profit him in any field he wishes to enter. Basketball 1,2; Wrestling 3,4; Band 1,2,3,4; Chorus 4; Chess Club 1, 4; Hi-Y 2; Visual Aids Club 3; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. RONALD A. TRUMBAUER Vocational Agriculture Ronnie was usually quiet, but Mr. Long will always remember his disagreements with everyone in math class. His major dislike in school was studying, and he spent most of his spare time outside, working on the farm. This gives us reason to believe that Ronnie will fare well in his farming career. FFA 1,2.3.4. 34 LARRY G. ULRICH Academic Lar is the typical tall, dark and handsome type. His winning smile and even-tempered disposition made him many friends through the years. Most of his spare time was spent wrestling, or finding ex- cuses for not wrestling, and caring for his strawberries. Larry ' s plans for the immediate future include joining the Marines. Wrestling 3,4; Chorus 4; Chess Club 4; Tracer Staff, Literary 4. ROSE A. UNGER Academic Rosie ' s angelic looks were an excellent disguise for her witty character. Her greatest surprise came when she found Mr. Pennella s stick in her locker. She could most often be found getting into trouble because of her numerous quick comebacks to statements. Although Rose ' s future is undecided her charming personality will help her to succeed in any field.

UNGER Industrial Arts The class of ' 62 was fortunate enough to receive two sets of twins. Sammy, the other half of our fraternal pair, was gifted with the same subtle sense of humor his sister possessed. We will never forget his black and white Ref ' s shirt and the jokes caused because of it. Sam ' s plans for the future are undecided. 35 PATRICIA A. WANITZKY Business Pat, majorette in the Senior Band for four years, was a quiet, but amiable member of our class. She could most often be found trying to hide her many freckles, which she thought gave her a little girl appearance. Pat surprised everyone this year by showing up with a ring for her third finger left hand. Hockey 3; Cheerleading 2,3; Band 1,2,3,4; Majorette 1,2.3,4; Var- sity Club 3,4; Tracer Staff, Typing 4.

DELORES M. ZENTNER Vocational Homemaking Dolly, a member of the Tracer staff, was in a strange predica- ment. She loved steak sandwiches, but detested onions. She was a quiet girl with pink cheeks and a pleasing smile, but she had a wonderful sense of humor which was well realized by her many friends. Dolly ' s future plans are undecided.

He turned out near the top of the list for personality, charm, and friendliness. Two of Charlie ' s best friends, Sam and Ray, could vouch for the fact that his favorite ex- pression was cut it out. Charlie ' s future plans are undecided. FFA 3,4. MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT The class of ' 62 bids farewell to Brandywine. Our stay with you has been most satisfying and memorable. We now enter a world community composed of the greatest leaders the world has ever known. We will train intensively so that we can do our part in this fast-moving age of space and the atom. We must remember that the fastest man had traveled before the invention of the steam engine was at the speed of a horse. In the next half century the speed increased to that of an auto or an airplane . Today we have broken through the sound barrier, and now we have Colonel Glenn, who orbited the earth at 17, 500 miles per hour. We cannot ignore the fact that much is expected of us . Time is of the essence. Space travel is within our scope. Leaders are needed in our expanding economy. We are ready to accept the challenge. We are extremely grateful to the faculty and the administration, who have prepared us for our future responsibilities . We are also grateful to those who have gone before us and have built the prestige of our school, making our path a smoother one. We hope to have in some way paved a better road for others . We are grateful to our community and its citizens for providing this fine school and for supporting it in all its purposes. Again we say farewell, with a wish for success to those following us. May their senior year be as rewarding as ours. Charles W. Radcliffe President of the Class of ' 62 8 XSdf ' ' •- -%,. -•- AS WE WERI 7 : i I O 1. Mary Boyer SfS ' 12. Robert William Kramer 2.

The paper had the slogan, See All, Hear All, Tell All. Betty hid a microphone in a vase and listened to all of her mother ' s telephone conversations, to glean the gossip of the neighborhood. When two TV murder mystery writers, who lived upstairs came to pay the rent, they found no one. So they discussed their latest script and how their next victim was to be murdered. Betty, who overheard the conversation, was convinced that they were murderers. Several days later, under mysterious circumstances, an unidentified man was found dead in a rooming house . Betty notified her staff. They went to press with a front page scoop that made the police look ridiculous. After that things began to happen fast. Sheriff Weston, who had fallen in love with Betty ' s sister. Norma, arrived and demanded to know how the information had been obtained. The Babbler ' s story, which claimed to know the murderers identification, coincided with police clues. The neighbors, enraged by the Babbler ' s gossip, besieged Betty ' s home. Eventually the fracas was exploded, solving the mystery. Hal, deciding the Brook ' s home was no place for his future wife, hurried Norma into town for a wedding ring. Betty and her mother were left to face the neighbors and the music of their babbling tongues . r 44 i m ■ iH a H jS ■ M M 1 1 ' V C— - B HEADIN ' FOR A WEDDIN ' Homer Hollowbone had fallen in love with a debutante whose picture he had found in a newspaper. He began a correspondence with the girl and told her that he lived in a mansion and that he was a refined, edu- cated person. To put it mildly, he had exaggerated , because he really lived in a mountain shack with his H ; A E shiftless family and their pet skunk, Gloria, Bf ' f B Homer was writing a letter to his debutante, Melissa Dugan, when his sister, Gracie May, grabbed the letter and read it aloud. Everyone thought that it was Hi ' ' ' written to their neighbor, Bertha Blairhouse . ' ' fl -A raging snowstorm drove the Blairhouses to the I V,lA Vitl HoUowbone ' s home. While Homer busily avoided — ™ Bertha, Melissa Dugan, who had become lost in the storm, found her way to the Hollowbone home, Melissa had been on her way to marry an educated young man. Homer tried desperately to keep Melissa from discovering his identity. Homer found himself engaged to Boisterous Bertha, Since Gracie May had caused the misunderstanding, she told Bertha there were periods when Homer acted like a dog. Bertha decided to forget Homer, thus causing a feud between the families. All prob- lems were forgotten when Gloria became a famous TV star. The Senior Class was honored by the attendance of the authoress. La Roma Greth.

A., a state-wide organization of music education, was organized for the pur- pose of promoting interest in school music, advancing the recognition of school music, and promoting and sponsoring music festivals, whereby students may gain music ex- periences and contacts with others who enjoy the same things in life. The P. M. E. A. is affiliated with the Music Educators National Conference and cooperates with the State Department of Education and the Pennsylvania State Education Association. The motto of the P. M. E. A. is For Better School Music. This year the Eastern District Orchestra was held at Brandywine and consisted of 105 musicians representing 47 schools of the five counties of Berks, Carbon, Lehigh, North- ampton, and Schuylkill . The members had earned their positions in the orchestra as a result of auditions conducted in September, 1961. Each festival is organized by a host director who is a member of the Association, and who is responsible for the music program in the school in which the festival is held. This year the guest conductor was Mr. Charles A. Davis, who obtained his musical de.s- grees at Indiana State College and New York University. He also has done additional work at Julliard School of Music and the University of Colorado. 78 ORCHESTRA PROGRAM The Star Spangled Banner Key Symphony No. 8 in B.

HOCKEY TEAM The varsity hockey team, coached by Mrs. Erb, opened the 1961-62 campaign with a 5-0 victory over Twin Valley. In the second game the varsity chalked up another victory at the expense of Mt. Penn, the final score 3-1. The next five games were victories. The following week the varsity faced Mt. Penn and al- though the team fought valiantly, it was unable to claim a victory. Regaining the winning touch, the varsity won their last two contests to end the season in first place in the Eastern Division. FIRST ROW--Left to Right: J. Muehlhauser, S. Wagner, S. Sawyer, N.

SOCCER TEAM The 1961 season failed to meet the standard set by its predecessors since the Brandywine hooters managed to salvage only two victories while losing eight games and tying one. Although the desire to win was evident, Coach Millard found inexperience his main problem having only a few players returning from last year ' s squad. The three seniors were the stalwarts of the Brandywine de- fense, with Jay DeLong and Tim Adams as fullbacks and Callie Bonawitz as halfback. With this year ' s experience as a foundation, next year ' s team will have the necessary qualities for success. FIRST ROW --Left to Right: G. Miller, D. Dellicker, L. Fisher. M. Stauffer. G. Roth.

BASKETBALL TEAM Although the Brandywine Heights High School basketball team played a number of games that were squeekers, they finished the season with ten victories and four defeats. In contention for the Class C divisional title throughout the season, the team lost its last tilt of the year to Fleetwood, who eventually won the title. The team ' s starting string consisted of three seniors, a junior, and a sophomore, all of whom were essential to the year ' s success. Left to Right -- STANDING: A. Hamm, L. Kunkel, T. Romig, C.

Although the combination of tricky offensive plays and a solid defense proved too much for Brandywine ' s opponents, this team is to be complimented for its good sportsrtian- ship. In pre-season play, the team had a record of 2-1, losing to Schuylkill Valley and beating the Alumni and Northwestern. Left to Right — FIRST ROW: N. Fegely, A. Unger, C. Hane, K. Fegely, J.
