Although it is true that the freshmen presence exercises little apprecia- ble effect upon the overall character of the school, the ninth grade experience represents a crucial transition period for the students involved. Meeting new people, experiencing new concepts and realizing old goals and aspirations, the freshmen are transformed into individuals capable of meeting the high school challenge. Guided by Miss Gable and Mr. Battenfield, president, Jackie Gentile; vice president, Tom Lynam; secretary, De Shoemaker; and treasurer Deanna Leibman have shoulded the responsibility of leading their fellow classmates through the demanding times ahead. In anticipation of future expenses the class has planned two hoagie sales to supplement the treasury. Freshmin diss officers: Deanna Leibman, treas., Jackie Gentile, pres Tom Lynam, v. pres.

Plagued by a high incidence of injury, the team scored their only victory against Fleetwood, finishing the season with a total win - loss record of 1-7. However, in spite of the disparaging losses incurred, the runners have remained hopeful, viewing this season as a time to gain experience and increase physical capabilities. As one member put it, the runners are priming now . . . looking forward to next year. Although the statistics may seem to characterize an unpro- ductive season, coach Charles German believes that considering all factors involved, the team performed half decent.

In addition, several individual school records vtere also set. Junior Debbie Repasch broke Annette King ' s and Lois Carr ' s records for total wins m one season by outplaying her opponents in th ' rteen matches; while senior Lisa Angstadt won more events this season, six out of fourteen, than any other Brandywine player ever in the number one position.

In his first season as coach, Mr. Donald Holland has led the burgeoned young group of fourteen members on to dual wins against Schuylkill Valley High School, breaking the team ' s two year losing streak. In addition, the top two players, Perry Beach and Bill Kahres, have competed in the Berks County Golf Tournament held at Blackwood golf course. With the anticipated return of six lettermen in the 1980 season.

In spite of player injuries and losses to close rivals, the team pulled together, finishing third in the county with an overall record of 13 wins, 5 losses. The first mdications of a promismg season were the 5 - 2 and 10 - 2 wins over Mt. Penn and Oley, respectively, recorded in the first two games. Narrow losses to arch rivals Fleetwood and Kutztown in the next few games were not enough to dash the team ' s title aspirations. The remainder of the regular season, marred only by losses to Tulpehocken and Fleetwood, proved triumphant for the Brandywine team. The team then advanced to districts, but was halted in the first round of p lay by a loss to Elizabethtown. In spite of their losses, coach and players have maintained a positive attitude toward the season. Mr. Kline is particularly pleased with the fact that not only did the team function well as a whole, but individually each varsity starter scored at least one goal.

M$M Exuberant novice squad strives for mastery of cheers y, - ' 4iiil ' Phrases like Get down, get funky, get loose were only a few of the sounds which eminated from the athletic field as the cheerleaders attempted to rouse the spectators of their team. Numbering among them only four seasoned veterans the relatively inexperienced squad found it necessary to practice long hours in mastery of their routines. In addition to performing these cheers at soccer games, the girls also welcomed the opportunity of cheering on an apprecia- tive hockey team in its bid for the county, district, and state titles. Another change this season posed an interesting dilema for advisor, Cynthia Reichard. Having increased in size over last year from ten to eleven members, the squad now found itself lacking sufficient room for transportation in the school van. This problem, however, was soon resolved by the cheerleaders who pulled names from a hat before each away game to determine which girls would remain at home.

Each year one girl is honored by her fellow classmates by becoming Brandywine ' s representative to the Berks County Junior Miss Pageant. This year ' s candidate Loni Kunkle. Chosen by judges from among nominees Angle Gentile and Teresa Angstadt, Loni appeared in the 1979 contest held October 6, at 7:00 in the Schuylkill Valley High School. Portraying Madame Paulina, Loni performed a monologue while pre- recorded piano music, which she composed and executed herself, was heard in the background. The evening ' s activities culminated in the crowning of the 1979 - 80 Berks County Junior Miss, Margret Lessie of Muhlenberg High School Loni commented that the attitude of the girls and the freindships gained made the pageant seem more like a performance than -t competiton. Although Brandywine has had foreign exchange students past, this is the first instance in which we have hosted two su, individuals in the same year. Stefan Franz-Josef Hirsch, our West German exchange student, made his home in the village of Aschbach, a small industrial tow of some 2,000 inhabinants located in the southwestern part of th country. Jn Germany, Steve attended a gymnasium or college preparatol lol which differs in many respects from our school. The liTvironment here is stricter and more structured. For example, gymnasium students are permitted to leave school during lunch and free periods, and they need no passes for movement within the building. j Steve ' s hobbies include reading and playing the piano an recorder. He also enjoys running and has joined the cross counti team. „iis from Naga City where he lived with his parents, three sist and a younger brother. - Like Steve, Dean finds Brandywine to be much different from I iie school Ateneo de Naga High School. In his old syste students are offered no choice in the courses they may take, a Dean lauds our academic freedom. i Dean ' s hobbies include playing the guitar, camping, and makii friends. Putting his talents to work on the Flashes staff and in the bam has helped Dean assiumulate to his new school life. j This year has been a time of change for the band in its quest for increased respectability among the student body and in the community at large. Attempting to gain greater musical prowess and marching abilities, the organization, under the auspices of Mr. Douglas Bolasky, has increased its practice time from three to five periods a week. The band front under the instruction of majorette and color guard clinicians, Mrs. Debra Kenny and Mr. Mitch Huston respectively, has endeavored to expand its marching capabilities and visual impact in the creat ion of a new eight-member drill flag squad. Seeking to attain increased public exposure, the organization ap- peared in the Macungie Halloween parade as well as participating in traditional Shamrock, Topton, Fleetwood, and Kutztown events. In addition, the band has opted to elect officers for the 1979 - 1980 school year. The members have voted as their president, Dave Cullin; vice president, Max Bleiler; treasurer, Mike Grossman; and secretary, Loni Kunkle. BAND FRONT HEADS: ROW 1: L. Kunkle. ROW 2: S. Mullen. C.

However, FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) provides business students with an opportunity to apply their skills for personal gain and recognition. For instance, club members compete against students from other schools in regional events held in the fall and spring and prizes are awarded to superior participants. Select winners then have the opportuity to advance to state and national finals. The club has also sold calendars and posters and gone caroling at the Lutheran Home. Another group. Vocational Industrial Club of American (VICA), is open to Vo-Tech students with a C or better average. This organization has sponsored such activities as ski trips, spaghetti di nners and movie nights. VICA: ROW 1: C. Blank. B. Bock, K. Kline, D. Leitrensperger, C. Gambler, S. Weller, A. Leib, L.

Skapnit. , — ■N = ■W Providing college bound seniors with an opportunity tor advanced study in ttie field of English, a new program is being taught this year by Mrs. Allmendinger. English honors is a full credit elective course designed to introduce students to advanced subject matter not considered in depth in standard English classes. Its fundamental objective as interpreted by Mrs. Allmendinger is to assist students in developing the academic background that college professors will expect them to possess. This includes study in such areas as speech, composition, theater and world literature. Mrs. Allmendinger enjoys teaching English honors since it enables her to work with advanced students and subject matter: and although the course is presently operating on a trial basis, she is hopeful that the success enjoyed this year will warrant its permanent institution into the curriculum in the future. Curriculum 67 The tfaditional high school curriculum is composed almost entirely ot academically oriented courses which offer students an opportunity for enrichment and recognition in such areas as mathematics, language, and science. However, until now no similar opportunity has been available for athletically inclined students to develop and excel m their particular specialty. This year a new class has been instituted which provides these students with the necessary outlet in which they may cultivate their special talents for a game. Phys. Ed. IV transcends the basic skills taught in regular gym classes to include advanced skills, strategies, and regulations, as well as coaching and refereeing techniques.

Following tier graduation in 1974, tlie former Miss Su- zanne Diehl enrolled in Kutztown State College where she earned her B.S. in art education. Then, after teaching at the Topton elementary school for a period of only one year, she returned to her alma mater and assumed her present position as high school art instructor. Mrs. Oswald commented that she wanted to teach at Brandywine because she felt that after viewing the school from a student ' s point of view, she might be able to make some positive contributions to its improvement.

During one year a squad ' s performance may be less than mediocre while several seasons later, after acquiring new talent and substantial experience, they may be unrivaled in competition. The girls ' basketball team seems to have struck upon one such peak year. Undefeated after eighteen games, they promise to be the most successful organization of their kind in Brandywine ' s history. Much of the team ' s prosperity has been attributed to a superior defense. However, although the squad boasts no single player among the top twenty scorers in the county, their overall offensive capabili- ties have proven equally outstanding. Coach Harry Kline is cautiously optimistic when assessing the team ' s prospects for continued dominance, indicating that the girls still have several difficult games ahead against Fleetwood, Twin Valley, Tulpehocken. and Daniel Boone.

After the last parade has ended and uniforms are neatly packed away, the band focuses its attention upon another style of music, trading the strict regimentation of a marching unit for the subtle melodic intricacies of the concert band. Following countless hours of meticulous preparation, the group made their first appearance of the year in the December 20 Christmas concert. Directed by Mr. Douglas Bolasky, the band performed such selections as Exaltation by Swearingen; Chanson and Bouree by Erickson; and Carillons at Christmastide by Calkin. The musicians then immediately began rehearsing for the spring intrumenta! music concert to be presented on April 16. In addition to these two events, the band has also made tenative plans for an exchange program with Muncy High School located in central Pennsylvania.

This year, director Mrs. Sondra Yarrison has choosen to attempt a new and unconventional style of performance, the dinner theater. The Warrior ' s Husband a three-act comedy by Julian Thompson, will be presented in the cafeteria on March 28 and 29 in conjunction with an evening meal. The story ' s events unfold in the city of Pontus, a war-torn society in which the traditional male female roles have been reversed pitting the Amazon women against Hercules and the Greek warriors. Throughout the story, the mighty Hercules attempts to capture Queen Hippolyta ' s belt, a garment which insures continued female superiority. Add a love story and a few rebelious males and the plot is complete. Main characters are portrayed by Kim Wiser, Hippolyta; Staycey Mullen, Antiope; Steve Seyler, Sapiens; and John Keiser, Theseus.

Throughout the week many people could be seen clothed in a sundry of perculiar apparel ranging from three piece suits, leather jackets, and threadbare jeans to outlandish buttons and headgear of all descriptions. Spirit week included dress-up dresj down day; hat, button, and sign day; greaser day; and school coloi day; and it culminated in a Thursday evening pep rally and dance. Among the organization ' s other functions for the year were a magazine drive and an unsuccessful Snowball dance. A talent show and possible carnival were being considered as spring activities. n STUDENT COUNCIL: ROW 1: L. Horonzy, A. Gentile, D. Neimeyer, M. Hafer, L. Kunkle. ROW 2; A. Lorish, R. Meek, 0.

VJ f:i  3K! a:«B«3tiS Mr. Larry Youse is often found using tiand motions to get tiis point across, as in this instance, as fie tries to produce an image in tfie minds of tiis students. J W II bi Mr. Youse begins tiis tiuman tiefiavior class with his so often heard phrase, Who are you? Throughout our high school careers there have been certain teachers whose personalized style has served to endear them to us. Their true concern tor the students themselves has distinguished them among their col- leagues as invaluable instructors and extraordinary hu- man beings. One such person in particular is especially worthy of our admiration and esteem. Who could forget his role playing techiques and hilarious comments on society? With him, we probed the depths of the human mind, explormg psychological processes and Freudian tech- niques. Exposing the realm of man ' s personality, he encouraged individualism and promoted a sense of self worth within us the students. While m criminal justice, he motivated us to speak out in open debate on contro- versial issues. This man always had time to listen to our problems and lend assistance when possible. In gratitude, we the class of 1980 dedicate the ' 80 Tracer to Mr. Larry Youse.

Each year student council sponsors a talent show which provides such persons with an opportunity to exhibit their particular proficiency for the enjoyment of other students, teachers and community members. This year ' s events, held on February 23, featured fourteen different acts from comedy sketches to dance routines and musical exhibitions. A panel of judges, consisting of both students and faculty, rated each performance on such things as content, stage presence and audience appreciation. Although there were many outstanding acts and several subsequent ties, monetary prizes were eventually awarded to first, second, third, and fourth place winners. Sophomore Jim Tinsman captured first prize and $20.00 for a comedy routine. Second place was awarded to allumnus Joe Meek who sang and played the guitar. Third place was a draw between a disco twirling act by themarching band majorettes and The Newscaster, a comedy skit by Joel Umberger and Bill Zollers. The fourth place also resulted in a tie, with prizes being presented to both Steve Hirsch and Joel Umberger for an original piano presentation and comedy routine respectively. Comic, Joel Umberger, makes dual winning performance Jim Meek surprises the audience with a fantastic perlormance on the keyboard as he goes for gusto in hopes of placing first. A few of the acts wait impatiently for the judges ' decisions as Jim Meek just knows that he will walk away with the gold. Pep rally and FBLA week create diversity in student life As Dale Stoudt and Joey Heffner act out a lockeroom scene, everyone in tlie audience waits to see if or when Joey will drop his towel.

With an evil look m his eyes, Mr. Perich will search out the troublemaker who smashed the pie in his face. Donna Fenstermacher will always be prepared to write as she carries a pencil in her ear on Pencllin-the-ear day. m As the school year progresses, much of the initial novelty and enthusiasm of Septemlwr often becomes dissipated, re- placed instead by an overwhelming state of lethargy. Trudging from class to class, students become entangled in a ubiquitous quagmire of boredom and apathy. During such times stimula- tion of student morale and school spirit becomes a popular theme for various activities. The Future Business Leaders of America have confronted the crisis in their own ranks by sponsoring a week long set of events. FBLA week was initiated by stuffed animal day in which members were accompanied to class by their favorite furry beast. Tuesday was pencil in the ear day while Wednesday and Thursday were designated by hat day and blue and gold day, respectively. The series was then culminated on Friday by name card day. Another somewhat more purposeful activity, which is also designed to boost school spirit, is the pep rally. Several times throughout the year, screaming mobs of Bullet fans pour into the gymnasium in preparation for impending sporting events. Spurred on by the pep band and cheerleaders, students help to give their team the psychological advantage necessary for success. Such was the case at a recent pep rally held in support of the wrestling and girls basketball teams. The grapplers were contending for their third sectional title, while the girls were scheduled to battle the Reading Knights for the county cham- pionship. A skit and pie throwing incident added excitement to the afternoon activity. Lori Turner just can ' t bring herself to leave her stuffed furry friends at home as they nap in the middle of a busy day.

' ' M Ads 159 ft ' - ■• ' I 4! As these final days slowly draw to a close, we are |.J reminded of the many personalities, places, and events reminiscent of this school year. Paging through the annals of our minds, we recall all the things that have made this year so very unique and endearing. The triumphs, the pitfalls, the victories, and defeats, all are ingrained indelibly upon our memories as characteristic of one important period in our lives. A small number of these events have been cap- tured in the ' 80 Tracer, preserved for the future times, when once again we think back upon our years at Brandywine and the people and events that made us small but mighty.. ■ v J b In March, when the wintry winds of February have subsided and the snows of previous months are all melted away, the advent of spring is paralled by the dawn of a new sports season. Retiring their memo- ries of past triumphs, athletes commit themselves to the future with renewed hopes of recognition and glory. Although many of these dreams may be dashed by individual failures or untimely team losses, the challenge and excitement of competition will far outweigh the disappointment of defeat. i I Since its evolution into an interscholastic sport, volleyball has made steady advances at Brandyvi me. Experiencing both an increase in popularity and quality of play in their four year history, they novi rank as a formidable force among the nine Berks County teams. Competing in the second annual Berks County Championship held March 28 and 29 at Schuykill Valley High School, co-captains Tom Guldin and Mike Moyer led their team to a third place hnish after edging last year ' s titlist, Mt. Penn, 15-13, 12-15, and 16-14. Also participating m the April 12 Central York Invitational and April 19 District III Championship, the thirteen member squad rivaled all other participating Berks county teams. Although tournaments like these nov constitute the only opportuni- ty for Bullet volleyball play. Coach Battenfield is hopeful that a Berks league will be created sometime in the future, extending the team ' s seasonal schedule. Volleyball team 5-Pi ' ■ ' . •I. ' fUlJh ' .

Stoudt and Neimeyer Confronted with the reality of forging a predominantly junior squad into a winning organization, Mr. Finger has coached the baseball team through a transition period this year. Enioymg only moderate success from their efforts, the team com- pleted the season 5-7 overall. Mr. Finger openly expresses disappointment with the team ' s perfor- mance, commenting that errors were made where they shouldn ' t have been. Returning from the 1979 season with only two seniors, Mr. Finger has also had to struggle with the task of fitting the best available players into a host of newly vacated positions. However, the year was not without its high points. In the last game of the season against the 1979 state finalist, Oley, the Bullets came from behind with two outs in the bottom of the seventh to win the game 21. § f J VARSITY BASEBALL: ROW 1: B.

At a school like Brandywine this nucleus of people is extremely small, placing an even more cumbersome burden upon the tew participants. One example ot this can be found in athletics, where some students move from sport to sport, competition to competition, training constantly throughout the course of the year. Such was the case with many of the superior members ot this year ' s Softball team. In addition, because of the success enjoyed by these players in preceeding hockey and basketball seasons, much optimissism was expressed over their chances for prosperity in Softball also. As one player stated. Everyone expected us to win and we should have, But. somehow the team couldn ' t live up to the expectations. Although coach Spesak denied that the girls were burned out. he did feel that the length of the total athletic year and preseason prognostications were extremely detrimental to the squad. Even though the girls did not realize the degree of success predicted, they still played well. Compiling an overall record of 8-8. they culminated the season second in their section.

Leslie Kutz is one of the few people who enjoys softball practice as she gets ready to catch a ball in the bucket. We have a better team than what our record seems to imply is how Coach Burkhardt characterizes the achievements of his boys ' tennis team at mid season. After completing eight of its fifteen scheduled matches, the squad ' s overall record stands at 4 and 4. A somewhat disappointed Ml Burkhardt refers to the loss of substantial leads and a lack of individual player consistency as ma|or factors contributing to the team ' s detriment. However, he expresses optimism that the squad will surmount its difficulties, culminating the season in respectable standing. In addition to regular team play, doubles partners Dave Cullin and Troy Geist participated in the Berks County Tournament, entering the competition second seeded among twenty-nine pairs. However, the two were defeated in the semi-final match by Wilson ' s Hawk and Miller 6-2, 6-3. Cullin and Geist _, • f% t f f f : ;J BOYS TENNIS: LEFT TO RIGHT: B. Kutz, D. Cullin, T. Stoudt, T.

However, because of the emaciated state of Brandywine ' s organization, a fair and accurate estimation of the season ' s accomplishments can only be made by considering both group and individual records. With a team consisting only of sixteen members, and an overwhelm- ing fifty-seven point placings possible in each meet, the group entered competition with a size which practically precluded success. With this knowledge. Coach Perich began the season with the goal of helping each individual member attain his highest level of achievement, and although the team lost all six meets it entered, many victorious Brandywine athletes emerged from each encounter. Probably one of the most outstanding is sprinter Rich Knauss who earned a total of ninety-five points over the course of the season, including sixteen first places. He also established a new school record, 15.9 seconds, in the 110 meter high hurdles, and qualified for the District III meet in both the hurdles and 100 meter race. In addition to the more tangible results obtained, other team members also achieved success, improving upon past performances and setting new personal records. TRACK: ROW 1: A. Bower, M. Conrath, D.

Nash receives honorary membership for devoted service Modern schools have become much more than mere centers for learning. Encompassing a myriad of extra curricular activities, student life has developed into a widely diversified opportunity for social expression. In this complex atmosphere, it is easy for one to become distracted from the incipient purpose of education, placing more emphasis on winning that big game than studying for a test. Each year the Brandywine chapter of the National Honor Society pays tribute to those students who best exemplify the ideals of scholarship, leadership, character, and service; those who participate while they still maintain high standards of academic achievement. At this banquet, held May 15, sixteen new members were inducted. Numbered among this group were one senior, five juniors, and ten sophomores. In addition, honorary memberships were awarded to Principal Krauss and advisor, Mr. Nash, for his many years of service. Traditional speeches expounding upon the four society ideals char- acter, scholarship, leadership, and service were delivered by seniors Heidi Himmelberger, Max Bieiler, Dave Cullin, and Ken DeLong respec- tively.

At the conclusion of every sports year, Brandywine athletes gather to reminisce and pay tribute to some of their finer peers at the annual sports banquet. This year ' s event was held on May 17, in the gym. Following an invocation by Danita Carl, a meal was served by booster club members. Next, Mr. Jim Gano, head basketball coach and athletic director of Reading High, delivered a speech on the reality of sports programs today. In his address, he particularly emphasized the need for increased student participation. BH coaches were then introduced by Mr. Charles German to present MVP awards in their respective sports. In addition. Coach of the Year, Glenn Reifinger Memorial, Player ' s Player, and Jeff Kline Memorial awards were also presented.

On June 1 two rows of solemn seniors filed into tfie auditorium amidst strains of Praise and Thanksgiving for their baccalaureate service. After an invocational prayer by the Rev, Donald W, Wert of Huffs-New Jerusalem Lutheran Church, the audience read psalm 98 responsively. A scripture lesson from the bbok of Ecclesiastes fol- lowed, after which the chorus sang an anthem entitled It ' s Time for Movin ' On. Following another scripture reading, Rev. Wert delivered his sermon based on the class motto, In the time of your life, live. The most important event of the school year, though, came five days later, as the 126 members of the class of 1980 participated in commencement activities. Forced inside by ram, the seniors entered the gym in time to the traditional Fanfare and Processional. The class was addressed by salutatorian, Mae Zettlemoyer, and valedictori- an. Tammy Adam, with speeches entitled Where We Have Been and Where We Are Going, respectively. In addition guest speaker. Judge Forrest Schaeffer of Berks County Court, spoke on Graduation-A Time For Dreams, A Time For Action.
