( lass of 79 exalts a brilliant matkematiciaH Mr. Holland explicitly explains the latest identity in Trig. With great pomp and ceremony, the senior subject.s of the dominion of Brandy- wine Heights have proclaimed Mr. Donald C. Holland as the instructor most deserving of our gratitude and praise. He is hailed as the math wizard responsible for introducing us to interpolation, formulas, sines and cosines in trigonometry and factoring and quadratic equations in Algebra II. His mere name conjures up images of him parading around in his wife ' s housecoat and curlers for previous Halloween Dress-Up Days. The mention of his name also conjures up images of him partaking in such frolics as golf, bowling, and the martial arts. He prepared for his illustrious career as a mathematician by procuring a B.S. from East Stroudsburg State College and an M.S. from Kutzlown State College. For these endearing memories, and all that he has done for us, we, the class of 1979 would like to express our appreciation and dedicate the 1979 TRACER to a friend and instructor who will long be remembered. 3 r ;:i Conjuring up a new formula in Algebra II.

Cindy Guldin. l-rin L McCarly, and Deb Soil i m M Each year, the kindgom ' s female sub- jects anxiously awaited the regal ex- citement and glamour one encountered in the Berks County Junior Miss Pageant. The entire high school was searched far and wide as the class looked for maidens worthy of such a distinction. After much deliberation Robin Bower, Cindy Guldin, Erin McCarty and Debbie Solt were the maidens chosen by their fellow students as ambassadors for the dominion. However, the number dwindled to one when the preliminary judges selected Robin Bower as Brandywine ' s envoy. The pageant was held on October 7 at Schuylkill Valley High School. Fol- lowing the pageant ' s theme of the 50 ' s, Robin and the other maidens danced the twist, the pony and various other 50 ' s related dances. They also sang songs such as Yellow Polka-Dot Bikini, Davey Crocket, and Hit the Road, Jack. In the talent competition, Robin and her friend, Ethel the frog, performed an original dialogue for the judges. ;w».x ' .i-A¥ . Junior Miss 27
