There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want, and after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieves the second.

I IV Suer Foreword We, the “49”ers of Brookville High School, take great pride in presenting to you this our annual ECHO, which is to us a memorial of our high school days. In this book, we endeavor to make known the organizations and portray the events that make up part of our school life, to help preserve the many fond memories of our pleasant associations as a class, and to retain for future reference a record of accomplishments. We have tried to uphold the ideals and traditions set by our predecessors, and hope that we have not failed. If some small pleasure is afforded you who read this, we will feel amply repaid, and our labor will have been worthwhile. Many thanks go to the editor, the students, the advisors, and the patrons who have made this ECHO possible.

His endless efforts as Junior High School Principal, Athletic Director, and teacher of Algebra are a great asset to the students and the school. He is very capable of arousing enthusiasm among the students to follow the athletics of the school. We have all experienced his pleasant supervision either as our teacher or director. Mr. Phillips is completing his twentieth year at Brookville High School, and we hope that he may have many more pleasant years to inspire future classes of B. H. S. We wish to express, in this dedication, our sincere thanks and appreciation to Mr. Phillips for his wholehearted efforts and guidance in our schools. Miss Ellis 01 R FAVORITE TEACHER In Room 217, we found a new teacher this year. Last September we entered her classes with a questioning and undecided attitude, but it was not long until she became our favorite teacher. Yes, it’s Violet Ellis, our Senior English Teacher. Admired for her good nature, her unexcelled understanding of our problems, her fine sense of values, and her scintillating wit, this outstanding teacher gave us an example of character that many seek to achieve. She showed us in her inimitable way the human side of English Literature; the importance of vocabulary and composition; and, above all, the necessity of a well-rounded education. Her classes, which were interesting and educational, were often enlivened with her humorous remarks. Thanks a million, Miss Ellis, for everything you’ve done for the “Forty-Niners.” EXTRA —EXTRA HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ’49 In September of ’45, shortly after the end of World War II, we entered the halls of B. H. S. as little, green freshmen anticipating four happy years of fun and study. Those first few days were tough ones: new teachers, new subjects, and new surroundings in which most of us soon got lost. In a few weeks the day came for which the sophomores had long been waiting-freshman initiation. Many old rags were dug out of our attics and we appeared in school as farmers, fishermen, and even Indians. The halls were well occupied that morning with sophomores receiving their just homage from us lowly freshmen. So ended our happy days in Junior High. Now we were actually in high school! One of our first functions as a class was to elect officers. e elected the same president and secretary as of the previous year. Dave Matson was chosen vice president and John Espy, treasurer. That year marked the revival of B. H. S. football. Through sweat and tears, and as much brawn as could be assembled, they managed to win one out of the three games played. During our sophomore year we raised a few cents by sponsoring a bake sale and, of course, our elaborate Penny Arcade. As we entered our third year of high school, our minds were focused to the Junior-Senior Prom which we were to give to our upperclassmen. Bill Hmerick was reelected for his third term as class president, as was Marg Wright for secretary. John Espy was vice president for the year, and Phyllis Holmberg was treasurer. 1 he banquet was placed under the direction of Molly North, and Martha eingst was appointed general chairman for the Prom. Another important function of our junior year was the junior class play, “Apple of His Eye.’’ After many tryouts a cast was chosen, headed by Patsy Painter and John Espy. Included in the cast were Martha Haugh, Portia Gayley, Caryl Haugh, Linda Leathers, Dave Matson, Gene Winters, Bob Battaglia, and Bob Evans. A new record was set by playing to 1000 in two nights’ performance. Along with the “New Look,’’ which the girls ushered in during the fall of 1947, we were pleased with a new and modern cafeteria, which made possible a shorter lunch period and earlier dismissal. During our Christmas vacation that year we had a new public address system installed. Now, at long last, we were high and mighty seniors, and for the fourth time Bill Emerick and Marg Wright were elected president and secretary, respectively. Phyllis Holmberg continued as treasurer, and Don Holben took over as vice president. This year, under the direction of Mr. Nedwidek, the football team began to hit its stride. At the end of the season, their record showed five wins and three losses. Bob Battaglia, crack fullback, was placed on the All-District team. Mr. Parks chose “The Parlor Story” as our second class play. During our senior year we had the good fortune to watch a great basketball team in action. They swept to the championship of the Southern Section of District IX by means of an undefeated league season. Our cheerleaders worked hard to keep up to the stiff pace set by the team and were worthy of the praise accorded them. All through the year we had been working hard on the yearbook. Editor-in-chief, Florence Bockoras, and her assistant editor, John Espy, rounded up the committees early in the term. Under the supervision of three faculty members—Miss This, Miss Joseph, and Mr. Caimi — they made plans for the best EGHO ever published. As we go to press, we are still looking forward to the Prom and Banquet as a grand finale to a grand four years. i Banc Feb. 1 Sing n Choru: akc I’lace in V Clash n I Saturday h y 'V « Btshtr Vinarr, fee of BHS” Issue From K Quarters I JOU heard the sound from Room 107?

Marjorie is in the academic course preparing to be a nurse. Long after we have left B. H. S., she will be remembered for her politeness and her agreeable disposition. She will have little difficulty in realizing any ambition, we are certain. William T. Allgeier Bill was an agressive tackle on the Raider Eleven, and, although the lightest man on the starting line-up, he was a formidable foe. Bill was also on the baseball team, Varsity Club, Hi-Y, Chorus, and the Bar Room Quartet. Bill is undecided about his future, but his ambition will carry him far. Robert Lee Ballentine To. look at Bob you would think him to be a quiet person. He isn’t. He’s quite a blower! The fact that he has blown a horn in the band for six years will explain this. He is also a member of the Orchestra, National Junior Honor Society, and Junior Varsity. He hopes to make the Army Air Force his future career. Ina Bartlett Ina came to us in her Sophomore year and became one of the fold at once. She is enrolled in the Academic Course, and is a member of Tru-Blu, the French Club, and the Echo Staff. We need not wish her success, for we feel sure it will follow her wherever she goes. Rita Bartlett Rita came to us from New Kensington, entering as a Senior. She has become a part of our school with little effort. Rita has been active this year in the F. H. A. She is taking the General Course and plans to become a saleswoman after graduation. The best wishes of the class go with her. Robert Battaglia Bob is an all-around boy. He was fullback on the B. H. S. eleven and turned in a great performance. He also received a letter in track and helped make our Junior C lass Play, “Apple of His Eye,” a success. He is President of the Varsity Club, a member of Hi-Y, and last, a member of the band. Neal Baughman Neal is tall, blond and good looking. His favorite sport is basketball and he proves a valuable addition to Brookville High’s varsity basketball squad. He is taking the Agricultural course and is a member of the F. F. A. Neal is also treasurer of the Varsity Club and an active member of Hi-Y Georgia Blake Georgie’s interests have been greatly varied. She has taken an active part in the Tru-Blu and the Choruses. Georgie is also a member of the business committee of the yearbook. After graduation Georgie plans to study Cosmotology and Electrolysis in California. A “go-getter” like Georgie always comes out on top, so, here’s luck to her future career! Florence Bockoras We are proud to introduce the winner of the D. A. R. good citizenship award, and the editor of our yearbook. She is very studious, as both her membership in the Junior and Senior National Honor Societies prove. She is also a member of the Argonauts and Sub-Deb. I ler greatest ambition is to be a laboratory technician. Barbara Bowser Babs is a commercial course student. She came back to Brookville this year after going to Punxsutawnev High School. She has big brown eves and a very pleasant personality. When asked about her future she says it’s uncertain, but she hopes to work at Sylvania. Paul II. Budnovich Paul was center and alternate captain of the football squad. No opponent who ran against the Maroon and White ran far when he went through Paul's side of the line. He was also catcher for the Raider nine. Although Paul is a trifle shy, he brightens many a day with his cheery smile. Joy Bullers Joy is one of the quiet type of girls. She is taking the Academic Course at B. H. S. She served very capably on one of the yearbook committees. After graduation she expects to go away to school to study beauty culture. We wish her loads of luck and hope she will be successful in her future career. Shirley Bullers Shirley is one of the small quiet girls who will soon be changing her name. She spent part of the time working as a saleslady at McCrory’s. It has lx en a pleasure having Shirley in our class for her lovely ways add to any occasion. May your future lx filled with happiness, Shirley. Kenneth Byerly Ken is really a joker. I le cannot decide whether to be President of the I’nited States or just a farmer. He’s not very big, but the small are mighty. Ken takes the Agriculture Course and shows great interest in the F. F. A. We will vote for you or buy your crops, Ken. Ruby B. Byerly According to the office records, Ruby is a resident of Mayport and a student of the academic course. “Work while you work and play while you play” could very easily be called Ruby's motto. Any senior can tell you she follows this closely. That’s the way, Ruby. You’ll succeed in the end. Merle Caldwell Merle is the cjuiet type who never has too much to saw His favorite sports are baseball and basketball. He has a letter for his participation in baseball. Merle is also a member of the Varsity Club and Hi-Y. He is taking the Academic Course, but, as yet, he has no definite plans for the future. tMAx Carrier Max can be greatly admired for he is one of those people whose senior year had been a matter of school, work, and sleep. Of course, even Max will readily admit that sometimes the urge to sleep overcame the desire for an education. Max has a rather realistic outlook on life in general. Percy C. Clontz Percy is the good-natured, athletic-type of boy who loves all sports wherever he may And them. He has a personality that makes him greet everyone with a smile. Percy, a quiet and reserved boy, is enrolled at B. H. S. in the Commercial Course. We wish Percy a successful career. Doris Clover Doris is one of the most studious seniors of the commercial department. She is a very good-natured girl who doesn’t become upset over the minor trifles of school. Doris hasn’t said much about her past-school days. One thing is sure, if she becomes a secretary, some employer is going to be pleased. Jane Cowan No formal introduction is necessary for Jane because everyone knows this dignified senior with her friendly smile and droll sense of humor. In addition to doing very good work in the Academic Course, lane has time to be active in Tri-Hi-Y, French Club, Band, the Echo Staff, and Special Chorus. We wish you luck in your future secretarial work. Nancy Crawford Nancy’s voice is well-known in our school because she often reads the news over the P. A. system. She is quite interested in sports and belongs to the Tri-Hi-Y, Band, Orchestra, Junior National Honor Society, and Sub-Deb. She plans to be either a nurse or a teacher, and her success in the Academic Course leads us to believe she will do well in her choice. Harry Croyle Harry is a quiet, unassuming boy. At the present time, he is employed at the Lakes-to-Sea Motor Company. However, garage work is not his only interest. He is also a staunch member of the rifle team. Harry hopes to someday own a garage of his own. May your dreams come true, Harry. We wish you garages and garages of luck! Terry Croyle Ferry is one of those easy-going persons who never seem to get excited. He has been an active member of the Rifle Club for four years. He tells us that his favorite subject is Chemistry. Terry plans to attend college next fall in the field of education. Bessie Arlene Davis Bessie, who comes to us from Munderf, struggles faithfully for an education. She is cool and calm, and collects the grades. She has shown us that words are not needed to show the quality of a person. The best of everything in the future, Bessie. t Withdrew. John Dinger John is the boy with the tenor voice that you have heard often. He is an active member of both the Boys’ Glee Club and the Mixed Chorus. John says his future is unpredictable, but he thinks that the Armed Forces will have something to say about his plans for the next few years. Connie Doverspike Connie came to Brookville when she was a sophomore. She has proved to be a good student in all of her subjects and always willing to help her classmates. The Junior Honor Society claims her as a meml er. She is Vice President of the F. B. L. A. and is a member of the Band and Orchestra. Connie has chosen Secretarial Work as her career. We wish her all the luck in her work. Mary Edwards Mary looks like a statuesque blonde, but when you get to know her, you find she’s much too talkative to be a statue. She is an active member of Sub-Deb and Le Circle Francais. In our estimation Mary is an example of a good mixer because her cheerful ways make her pleasant company. Barbara Kmerick Meet Barbara, twin sister of the class president. Barbara is a member of the Tri-Hi Y and Sub-Deb. Her studies in preparing for her future are found under the Commercial Course. When she has completed her commercial studies, Barbara would like to become a telephone operator. We all wish her luck in her career. William Emerick Bill has a record that would be envied by any political party. He has been our class president for four succeeding terms. In addition, he belonged to Varsity Club, Hi-Y, the Varsity Basketball Team, and the Baseball Team. Not only is Bill very active, but he is successful in all his activities. Clair Emery Clair is a steady, plodding type of person who attacks his problems with such patience and determination that there can be only one result—success. The subtle humor of Clair’s remarks is often responsible for many an outburst of laughter. His persistent efforts will solve many of life’s problems for him. Harry E. Eshbaugh Harry’s motto is that pupils should be seen and heard—especially heard. He always likes to have his little joke, and the group of boys he associates with will assure you that his jovial ways make everyone like him. With these characteristics Harry will never find himself without many friends. John Espy John has been one of our outstanding students both in academic pursuits and recreational activities. During his senior year, John was president of the Student Council, assistant editor of the Echo, and a member of the band and the orchestra. John wants to study medicine. We feel sure he will become a great and successful physician. Robert J. Evans Bob is a very active member of this year’s senior class. In fact, there was hardly any activity in which Bob did not participate. He was treasurer of Hi-Y, Kditor of the school paper for a semester, and trainer of various athletic teams, only to mention a few. His interest in Science will probably take him far in the held of Chemistry. Ann Marie Ferraro Ann is the reliable president of her home room and vice president of Tri-Hi-Y. She is also a member of Tru-Blu and Girls’ Special Chorus and an ardent worker on the features committee for the Yearbook. ’Her classmates wish her the best of luck in her future training and nursing career. Doris M. Ford Louise Grant We wonder where Louise got the nickname “Squeeze me.” She was often seen running frantically around B. II. S. getting pictures for the yearbook. Her energy as chairman of the Snapshot Committee really produced results. Upon completion of the high school Commercial Course, Louise wants to become a secretary. Portia Gayley Portia is a tall, dark-haired girl who is very quiet. Her shyness, however, does not keep her from participating in various school activities. She is secretary of Sub-Deb, secretary of Tri-Hi-Y, a member of Chorus, and the National Junior Honor Society. She was in the Junior Class Play. Her hobby is collecting programs from musicals and plays. Helen Hagerty One bright October morning a few years ago a little girl, now popularly called Helen, woke and smiled. That winsome smile has been making others happy ever since. Passing her in the halls, we would guess Helen to be quiet and reserved, but, to those who know her best, she is very merry. We are interested in her future carrer, and wish her success and happiness. Leora F. Harriff Leora is a very unusual girl. Her hobbies are many, such as: drawing and painting; writing short stories and poetry; and hiking. Her favorite subjects are Speech, English and Art. Leora wants to devote her life to missionary work. After graduation she plans to attend the Intercession City Biblical College, Intercession, Florida. Caryl Haugh Caryl has the ability to be entertaining in a quaint way all her own. Through the years she has grown in wisdom and charm but little in stature. Caryl’s most marked characteristic is her extreme fondness of food. When you hear the remark, When do we eat?” you may be assured Caryl is nigh. In all seriousness, she is a wonderful person and deserves to succeed in whatever she does. Doris participates in many school activities, as we can tell by the following list of activities: French Club, National Junior Honor Society, Tri-Hi-Y, Echo Staff, and Chorus. Her only hobby is listening to the radio, and her favorite class is French. Doris is taking the Academic Course, and after graduation she plans to be a telephone operator. Martha Haugh Martha is the petite brunette of the senior class. All of us remember her as the cute little girl in “Apple of His Kve,” our junior class play. She is an active member of the Commercial Club, Tru-Blu, B. H. S. Band, and the Kcho Staff. Martha wants to be a “Number, please” girl Barbara Hendricks Babs, the girl with the striking personality, was born in Pittsburgh Babs and Bill, with whom she was seen most of the time, were very prominent leaders of the senior class. Babs was head cheerleader. president of the Sub-Deb, a member of the Tri-Hi-Y, and an active participant of other organizations. We know that her ability to lead others will make her a worthy addition to any community. Doris Hendricks Doris has brown hair and the friendliest blue eyes we have ever seen. She is very pleasant to all, loyal and interested in the affairs of others. One of her favorite hobbies is music. She was the pianist for many groups during her high schoolc:. days. She was a member of Sub-Deb, French Club, and Special Chorus. Donald Holben Don, the boy with the brown eyes, black hair, is taking the Academic Course. He has no favorite sports; he likes them all. Don is a member of the Student Council and National Jr. Honor Society. He is now employed at the Dixie Diner. His future plans are not clear, but he probably won’t be a bachelor ten years from now. Phyllis M. Holmberg Phyl is that dark-haired girl you see running around the halls with a receipt book. She’s been treasurer for so many activities that we won't pretend to mention them. Her companions always enter into the fun with her, but many times Phyl can be seen earnestly studying P. O. D. and other subjects. Charlotte Irvin Charlotte, one of our serious-minded academic students, seems to be a quiet lass, but she’s just like the rest of the women—quite talkative. She is a member of Tru-Blu, Sub-Deb, and Broadcasters. She wants to be a kindergarten teacher. Imagine wasting that charm on little tots. Jeannine Ishman Although Jeannine has little to say along the frivolous line, she always has an attentive audience when she does talk. Jeannine has been taking subjects related to commercial work, although she would like to become a commercial artist after graduation. Her natural abilities, combined with her willing cooperation, will bring her a life of success. |Ann Johns Ann is one of B. H. S.’s commercial students who has shown great efficiency in her chosen work. She was an interested member of the Commercial Club. At the present time she is employed at the G. C. Murphy store. Her pleasant ways will bring her success and many friends, t Withdrew. Marcus I). Johns Mark likes the sports. Me was first string halflwck on this year’s hard-playing footbalJ team. He is a good basketball player and a fast runner which makes him gcnnl track material. Besides these sports he made the Rifle Team. Mark, of course, belongs to the Varsity Club and he’s also a member of the Hi-Y. He takes the Academic Course and would like to be a scientist. Margaret Kalgren Kal is about 5 feet, 6 inches tall, with hazel eyes and brown hair. She likes Home Economics best of all her school projects in the General Course. She will make a good wife, and that is her intention according to rumor. Kal’s favorite sport is basketball. Her hobbies are collecting pictures and skating. Marie Kirkman Another member of our class who believes that silence is golden is Marie. She is a persistent worker and does what is required in a reliable manner. Marie has accomplished a great deal as an academic student. We wonder if Marie will always be as quiet as she is now. Harry Klink From the booming metropolis of Beaver Falls came this handsome young man in the fall of 194.L Harry seems very shy in the presence of young ladies, but there is one who won him from his screen of reserve. His future is unsettled, but we hope that coming years are both pleasant and profitable. Hugh R. Kroh It is easy to see why Hugh is called “Star” because he was a dependable end on this year's eleven and a speedy guard for the Brookville Cagers. He belongs to the Hi-Y, Varsity Club, Boys’ Glee Club, and the famed Bar Room Quartet. He even finds time to throw the javelin now and then. Good luck to you in the future, Hugh. Margaret Kuhn Peggy spends very little of her time in idle conversation; she does her work silently and efficiently. Her winning smile says much more than words can. She proved to be a very helpful and loyal member of Sub-Deb. No matter what career she chooses, we wish her much happiness and joy. Linda Leathers Meet the girl with the tawny hair and sparkling eyes, Linda Leathers. Linda believes in the full enjoyment of life as in shown by her happy-go-lucky ways. She took the Academic Course, and English is her favorite subject. She is fond of driving the station wagon, particularly along the direction of Emerickville. Linda plans to further her education, and we are sure she will make some college brighter with her presence. Dean L. Lewis Although Dean is a hardworking, industrious lad in all his classes, he is always ready to join the crowd for a good time. In addition to being a member of the Rifle Team, he was an excellent pitcher on the Brookville High School baseball team. Dorothy A. Lindemuth Here is a girl who offers a challenge to future Brookville pupils. Although she lives at Hazen and travels quite a distance, Dorothy has never missed a day of school. She has followed the Commercial Curriculum through four years of high school, and her favorite subject is Office Practice. Joyce M. McAfoos Joyce has two major interests in school, P. O. D. and Office Practice. She plans to continue in some type of office work. Her neat appearance anti efficiency well qualifies her for this work. She enjoys the activities of the Commercial Club and the readings of good literature. Marilyn J. McHenry Have any gruesome murders you want solved? Here’s the armchair detective who can take care of such problems, for Mickey finds murder mysteries fascinating. She belongs to the Commercial Club and Tri-Hi-Y. It is said that Mickey has special interests in Sigel, her home town. Dora McKinley Dora is an attractive girl with dark hair and brown eyes. An outstanding student in the Academic Course, she maintained a high record of scholasticism in the Junior Honor Society. She showed her efficiency on the Student Council and the Echo Staff. She also belonged to Tru-Blu, and the French Club. Elizabeth McQuown Danny, as Elizabeth is known about B. H. S. is one of those very efficient girls who work in our library. Her flashing eyes, swinging bangs, and toothpaste-ad smile are enough to put her on the front of a pin-up magazine. Any girl of her calibre will be certain to make the most of life’s opportunities. David G. Matson Dave is a very popular senior and a member of a great many clubs. He was a member of the cast of the Junior Class Play, and the Senior Class Play, an ardent member of the Junior National Honor Society. He belongs to the Hi-Y and Broadcaster’s Club. Dave also belongs to the Speech Club and is Chairman of the Features Committee for the Echo. Norma Jo Mayfield Norma is a lovable character in our school. With her many love tangles and exaggerated troubles, she provides entertainment for all her classmates. She takes the Academic Course, but not too seriously. She belongs to Tri-Hi-Y, Tru-Blu, and P'rench Club. Seriously, Norma is a girl whom we all appreciate. Gerald Mendenhall Jerry has been an active member of the Future Farmers since he started high school. He has held most of the offices in the organization at one time or another. Last year he was Vice President, and this year the President. Jerry sees farming as his future, and for a scientific farmer such as Jerry a good future it is. Ruth Miller Ruth’s outstanding scholastic ability gained her membership in the National Junior Honor Society. She is a member of the B. H. S. Band, Tri-Hi-Y, and Tru-Blu. Ruth plans to continue her education in the field of higher mathematics. Ruth will succeed in whatever she tries because she is willing to work hard. Kathryn Mohney This happy-go-lucky girl firmly believes that all work and no play would make Katie a dull girl; therefore, she finds time for both. Her contagious laughter is heard of ten in Tri-Hi-Y, Tru-Blu, F. H. A. meetings, Special Chorus, and King’s where she is always eating cold fudge sundaes. Richard Mohney Blond, blue-eyed Dick has an unusual ambition —he plans to study refrigeration. Not that he’s the cold type, for we know him as a good-natured, friendly fellow. His special interests are agriculture, hunting, and baseball. Keep cool, Richard. Velva J. Moore Here is a girl who can find a funny side to everything and who likes to argue—especially about the despicable traits of men. It firmly doubted that she believes all those nasty things she says about the male animal. Because of her gay personality, we all enjoy having her around. Patricia Myers The gang would not be complete without Pat, and we will all miss her sunny disposition after we are graduated. At the time the Echo went to press, Pat was highly opposed to matrimony and had expressed a desire to spend her life as a teacher in a mission school. Richard Myers Dick is a very cheerful boy who holds a grudge against no one. He is one of the senior commercial students who did the typing for the Echo in addition to serving on the underclassmen committee. Dick enjoyed singing with the Boys’ Chorus throughout his high school years. His quiet manner and cooperative ways will bring him success. Arthur II. Newcome Arthur has the gift of quietness, but his greatest gift is his pleasant disposition. His popularity among his classmates has not been dimmed by his lack of participation in social activities. Art divides his out-of-school time between the Country Club Dairy Store and a certain brunette senior girl. Ernest Nolph Ernest Nolph left our class to serve some time with the United States Navy. We shall always remember him for his shy smile and speed, and his great enjoyment in farming. Ernest took several prizes with his entries at the Pennsylvania Farm Show. Good Lucl. in the Navy, Ernest. Molly Ann North Molly is one of our most loyal and active seniors. She rates highly in her class work, although she is quite modest about her accomplishments. Molly contributes her talents to many groups, but she will be especially remembered for her singing, both solo and with the chorus. Good luck in advanced education, Molly. Betty Jean Oakes B. J. is one of the future “angels of mercy” of the class of ’49. While in school she pursued the Academic Course and found time for many outside activities such as Beam Staff, Tru-Blu, Tri-Hi-Y, French Club, Band, and Orchestra. Anyone with such diversified interests is sure to succeed. Doris Osborn Just a glance at Doris will show that her greatest ambition is to enjoy life. Her happy, gleaming face is well-known in the various commercial rooms of the building. Her good-nalured ways make her an asset to the Commercial Club and Sub-Deb. A truer friend than Doris would be hard to find. Patsy Painter Patsy would lx? at a loss for something to do if this school had no outside activities. She will be sincerely missed on next year’s cheering squad, as well as at the meetings of Sub-Deb, Tri-Hi-Y, and many other clubs. No one ever tired of her company, but her attentions were centered on one out of school. William Preston Bill is the young man who poses for those vim, vigor, and vitality ads. He is a dependable scholar who thinks more of his studies than athletics, but he is an ardent fan of all sports. His great liking for math and science will probably be of value to him in his future career of engineering. Margaret Riggs By following the Academic curriculum Margie hopes to become a “white angel.” We all like Margie for her good nature, her personality, her so-called green eyes and brown hair. Tri-Hi-Y, and Tru-Blu membership proves her amicability. Her favorite subject is French. She is a member of the French Club and Echo Staff. Her hobbies are reading and swimming. Pat Rishell Shaffer The old saying, “Don’t judge a package by its size” might be applied to the petite girl whose picture you see here. Pat played the French horn and the baritone in the band for six years. We’re sure that the friendly smile which has been her trademark throughout school will make her a success as a secretary. Martin Roman Martin is a serious lad in regard to his studies and otherwise. Being a rather bashful boy, he seldom causes his teachers any trouble. His absence as tackle on next year’s football team will cause worry for the coach because he was outstanding during the past season. Martin was active in the Varsity Club. Mercedes J. Rowan Cedie came to B. H. S. at the beginning of her sophomore year. She has a charming personality and has made friends with everyone. She is an active member of Tru-Blu, and one of those attractive F. II. A. girls. Considering Cedie’s interest in the opposite sex, we have an idea that she will make a wonderful housewife. Doris Schellhammer Here is an extremely popular senior who hails from Room 217. Doris’ eternal use of her agile tongue has ever been a source of delight to her classmates. Many senior boys spend a great deal of time saying things to make her talk. Many activities will miss her cheery manner next year. Geraldine Sebring The pert redhead shown here gives the impression of extreme reserve, but her many friends know her to lx very lively and lovable. She proved to be an efficient secretary for Tru-Blu and French Club, and an ardent member of Sub-Deb. When Gerry leaves “Knowledge Knob,” she is going to study kindergarten education at Indiana. George Shaffer We who have known George over a period of time have found him to be quite a resourceful lad. He would rather hunt and fish than go to school, but he seldom neglects his duty. George is undoubtedly one of the best-read boys of the senior class. He has a lust for books of adventure and excitement. His character promises sure success. Paul Shaffer Paul is one of our ambitious seniors enrolled in the Academic Course. His ideas of relaxation center around hunting, fishing, and reading. Remember the deer he brought down? Paul plans to go to Penn State next year where he will study Industrial Engineering. Joan Shields Jo is that laughing lass who flits from class to class with thoughts of ice skating or the program for French Club of which she is president. She is a member of Sub-Deb and Treasurer of Tru-Blu. Her ambition is to be an illustrator. Good Luck to you, Joan. Mary Shugarts This cheerful Senior with a twinkle in her dark eyes is vice president of the Commercial Club and a member of Tru-Blu. Since she would like to travel, Mary plans to be an airline hostess. She wants to be a model housewife someday, and we hope her membership in F. H. A. will help her to be successful. Lillian Silvis Lillian is a quiet little girl who believes in keeping her affairs to herself. We haven t any idea what she i going to do when she leaves high school, but we suspect “someone is looking for a housekeeper, even though Lillian often talks of missionary work. We wish you happiness, Lillian. Dona Mae Smith If “Silence is golden,” let us introduce you to the wealthiest girl in the senior class. Dona believes in studying hard and, as a result, she always rates high on the honor roll. Room 217 could always Ik? sure of having a profitable home room program when Dona was on the entertainment committee. Norman Smith Norman, alias Smitty and Norm, is a good looking talkative lad who is well-known to all of us a captain and quarterback on our championship football team. Norm is secretary of the Varsity Club, Sergeant at Arms for the Hi-Y, and sports editor of the Beam. Norm wants to be Pennsylvania’s Frank Leahy. William Smith Bill came to us from the state of Maine at the beginning of our sophomore year. He still has some of the Pine-Tree State accent and a great deal of that famed New England humor. In addition to being a football manager, Bill belonged to the Beam Staff, Varsity Club, and Hi-Y. Albert Stalhman A1 is well-known for his dependable performances on the gridiron. He enjoyed his extracurricular activities to a greater extent than his academic subjects. A1 took an active part in student council, Hi-Y, and the Varsity Club. As do many other senior boys he plans to enter the service when he leaves school. Edith A. Steele Edith comes to us from Sigel, and we understand that Sigel holds more than a passing interest lor her. Edith seldom missed a meeting of Sub-Deb, Mixed Chorus, or Girls’ Chorus. The serious way in which Edith goes about her every-day tasks has never failed to bring her satisfactory results. Clair Stewart Clair has had quite a record of club memberships in his high school career. This year he is chairman of the underclassmen Committee of the Echo staff and president of the Camera Club. We will long remember some of those pictures that decorated our bulletin boards. Clair is going to enter Penn State as a prospective engineer. Alice Jean Sushereba Alice is that lovely blonde who works in the office of the Brookville Hospital. She wants to become a Nurse's Aid—lucky, lucky patients. She is treasurer of the French Club, belongs to Sub-Deb, Tri-Hi-Y, Commercial Club, and the Echo Staff. She spends her leisure time listening to recordings. Edward Swartz Ed is that tall, well-built senior with the brown hair, brown eyes, and very pleasant personality. His easy-going ways have made him popular with his chums. His favorite sport is rifle shooting, and we hear that he is an excellent shot. His favorite subject is Industrial Arts. Ed anticipates a stretch in the l nited States Army after graduation. Robert Swartz Boh is a carefree lad with a congenial personality. His penchant for mischief endeared him to his classmates. Bob belonged to Echo Staff, Sports Committee, and the Rifle Club. He enjoys all sports, to quote him, “especially hunting, football, baseball, and basketball.” Bob is contemplating a short time in the service and a career as a mechanic. Twila Swartz Sub-Deb wouldn’t be quite the same without Twila’s shy smile. Twila isn’t one to go around bragging of her abilities or accomplishments, but when the show-down comes, Twila is always prepared. She hasn’t told us her future intentions, but we know it will be something worthwhile. Lamond Swineford Lamond entered B. H. S. as a freshman and rapidly made friends and became active in school activities. She is a member of F. H. A. and the Snapshot Committee. Her favorite subject is Home Economics. Could that lie because she is planning to lie married after she is graduated? We know that Lamond will be successful as a housewife. John E. Vandervort Johnnie is a handsome boy who is well-liked by all of his class mates. He tackles most of his problems in an interested and vivacious way. He is an enthusiastic sports fan who participates in football and track. Johnnie may lie a source of good cheer when everything else seems sad. We wish him a successful career after B. H. S. Peter Vandervort Dutch, as Pete is known to us, made quite a name for himself as right tackle on this year’s football team. He is a member of the Hi-Y and Varsity Club, but his favorite ambition is hunting— hunting deer and dears. He has a desire to become a Sergeant in the Marine Corps. We know he will enliven that branch of the service. Betty Vasbinder Betty is a quiet reserved girl who is enrolled in the general course of B. H. S. She is an active student; being a member of Tri-Hi-Y, Press Club, Girl’s Chorus, and F. H. A. She would like to become a dermatologist, and we know that, because of her ambitious character, she will succeed. Happiness to you in the career of your choice, Betty. James Heller (Not pictured) Jim is one of the tall, dark, quiet boys of our class. His favorite sports are basketball and baseball. He is now employed at Hilton’s Diner, and in the near future he hopes to be in the U. S. Navy. He is a member of Future Farmers of America. Here’s wishing you a great deal of luck. Thomas Shannon (Not pictured) Tom returned to our class after having spent a semester in Kittanning. It was a pleasure to all of us to have his pleasant smile and original thoughts around. Tom belongs to the Varsity Club and Hi-Y. Although Tom has never said much about his future career, we know that his choice will carry him far. Howard Wayland Howard is a tall, sandy-haired hoy who seems very quiet unless he is around certain people. He enjoys all kinds of sports, and he likes to read. Howard is taking the Academic Course. At present he does not know what he shall do for a vocation, but, whatever he chooses, we are sure that he will be a success. Gene Winters Gene is a very active member of 15. H. S. clubs and committees. He belongs to the Yearbook Staff, Sports Committee, Varsity Club, and Student Council. His favorite subjects are English and Chemistry. He is a champion of all sports. Gene says that he plans to join the Navy and become a prize tighter after graduation. We wonder if those two ambitions are closely related. Walter White Whitey was a regular defense player on this year’s raider eleven. He was famed for his bone-crushing tackles, but was one of the best-natured fellows to don a uniform. 'This short, well-built and goodlooking fellow is planning to enter some branch of the service after his departure from B. II. S. Margaret D. Wright Meet Margie, our class secretary for the past four years. Margie is a member of N. J. H. S., Tri-Hi-Y, and Tru-Blu. Her popularity is shown by the fact that one never can find parking place in front of her house. Margie is going to be a beautician. Majorie J. Yarmer Everyone admires Marjorie for her sterling character and golden-rule behavior. She is a very neat, quiet girl, and a worthy addition to the French Club and Library Staff. She enjoys good wholesome reading. After graduation Marjorie is going to attend Bible School. Martha Yeingst That captivating blonde from Room 217, who is often seen with that handsome man from Room 214, is Martha. Martha enjoyed many school activities such as; Tri-Hi-Y, Tru-Blu, Beam Staff, and the Echo Staff. She is an ardent sports fan. Of her scholastic activities, she prefers French. Upon completion of her high school career she intends to enter a school of beauty culture. Donny Sowers (Not pictured) Don is a very cheerful boy who gets a great deal of fun out of school life. He enjoys singing so much that he has belonged to Boys’ Chorus for four years. Don’s pet hobby is sleeping in history class. He is enrolled in the Academic curriculum of B. H. S. We wish Don a very happy future. Bruce Vasbinder (Not pictured) Bruce is one of our seniors whose great interests are agriculture and sports. Bruce, a regualr agriculture student, has been secretary of the Future Farmers of America. In the line of sports, Bruce’s special interest is football. During the past two years he played left end.

MEMBERS OF ROOM 210 SUPPORT ACTIVITIES Various activities have taken place in the Room at the end of the upper hall, otherwise known as Room 210. Our homeroom officers are: President, Esther Smith; Vice President, Pete Vandervort; Secretary, Emma Work; Treasurer, Verna Wilson; Homeroom Teacher, Mrs. Kathyrn Smith. There are such committees as the Receiving Committee with Bruce Vasbinder, Chairman; The Bulletin Board Committee with Emma Work, Chairman; and the Program Committee, with James Wright, Chairman. There are twenty-seven in our homeroom, two of whom are in the band; live in the chorus, three on the Varsity Basketball Team. During our homeroom periods each Thursday, we have had discussions on manners throughout the school and the origin of our Christmas customs, A Christmas Party, as well as many humorous stories, songs, and poems. Mrs. C. H. Henry and Mrs. E. P. Geiser substituted during the absence of Mrs. Smith. Room 208 can be counted upon for activity of some type at all times. Judging from the arguments in this room, one might be inclined to think that this group of Juniors never did much but talk. That can be readily disproved by the fact that the plaque for highest scholastic honors hung on the walls of 208 for several grading periods. Many of these Juniors will probably become actors and actresses. Seven of them were in the Junior Class Play. They were: Corky Pitts, Anne Reitz, Jo Pyle, Jeanne Scheafnocker, Bruce Osborne, Bill Nelson, and Ann Port. Like the other home rooms in B. II. S. we spent the sixth period every Thursday as activity period. Many types of programs were planned by the committee. One event that will long be remembered was the birthday party last November for our teacher, Miss Joana Joseph. Our officers are: President, Jeanne Scheafnocker; Vice President, Helen Morrison; Secretary, Gwendolyn Quinn; Treasurer, Glenis Moore; Monitor, Anne Reitz.

What other room can boast of its own circus and museum. You see, we report to Mr. Ewing’s Biology Lab. But we also have many other things of which we are proud. We have within our fold two Varsity basketball players, four members of the Varsity football squad and two cheerleaders, not to mention other outstanding personalities of B. H. S. Each 1 hursday we hold a regular Home Room meeting. These meetings consist generally of informal discussions of present day student problems or of ways to better the appearance or organization of our school. The officers of our Home Room organization are as follows: President, Pat Miller; Secretary Treasurer, Harold Hatten. Our Home Room is one in w hich we are all friends and in which we all have fun, thus helping us to learn the important lesson of how to get along with people. In room 108 we find several very distinguished members of Brookville High School. Among these is the Junior Class President, two members of the football team, two members of the Varsity Basketball squad, and one varsity cheerleader. We also have in our midst one member of the school dance band and the manager. The members of this room are not very proud of the fact that they have never been first in any scholastic contest, nevertheless it is true. This home room has had many different home room programs which were very interesting. Among these have been spelling bees, truth and consequences programs, several monologues have been given by the actress of the room, Sue ( lark. They have had many interesting programs of discussion with the entire room participating. The officers of this home room are: President, Jim Brush; Vice President, Sue Clark; Treasurer, Dorothy Chittester, and Secretary, Rose Ann Davis. Miss Black is the home room teacher.

Never have we been through with a home room program when the bell rang which all goes to prove that we really have some interesting discussions. Believe it or not, last August when we moved into 106 for the first time, we were all quiet, retiring, bashful children, but during these last four months there has been somewhat of a change. Kloise, our president, and Miss Hall, our sponsor, lead a group of the “talkingest ’ pupils that ever went through B. H. S. Seriously though, we have solved all the major problems of school and the world at large, and we are still making suggestions. As a matter of fact, we talked so much we almost forgot our refreshments. WTe may not be future television beauties, but as long as there is still a member of 106 in this world, there always will be speech. Home Room 104 is composed (speaking alphabetically) of “L” to “S”. In September this group selected as their leaders: President, Gene McKinley; Vice President, Bill Long; Treasurer, Jack McCracken; Secretary, Lillian Martz; Program Chairman, Kay Richards; Sergeant-at-arms, Carole Robb; Monitors, David Miller and David Morres; and Bulletin Board Committee, Betsy Means and Pat Ray. During October a tournament was conducted in mushball and basketball between the Sophomore Home Rooms. Room 104 came out victorious. In November 104 held a discussion on the subject, “Is Courtesy Dead?”, a quiz program, and a Thanksgiving entertainment. In December, we discussed our “Pet Peeves” on the Assembly conduct of our classmates; had a Christmas program and party at which gifts were exchanged and refreshments served. This room has the honor of providing for eight members of the National Junior Honor Society, and two of the Sophomore Class officers for the current year.

We had refreshments, exchanged gifts, and played a few games. After that we sang Christmas carols. The room was all decorated and we had a Christmas tree set up. Home room programs were in charge of committees which were appointed by our program chairman, Marilyn Johnson. These programs centered on discussions on topics such as behavior at games and at assembly, good manners, and personal grooming. We also played baseball and basketball for some of our programs. The girls played baseball against the boys; needless to say, the boys won. Bill Hendricks, president of the room, presided at the business meetings. Other officers were Vice President, David Gayley; Secretary, Grace Eisenhart; Treasurer, Connie Hughes; and Sergeant-at-arms, Paul Irvin. The first home room meeting of Room 101 was spent in the election of officers. The results were as follows: President, Barbara Brenneman; Vice President, Bill Daugherty; Secretary, Joellyn Blackwood; Treasurer, Beverly Beatty; Program Chairman, Harry Bowley; Student Council Members, Brenda Bowser and Frank Christ. The home room programs are directed by a committee which is chosen by the Program Chairman. These programs are in the form of a group discussion in relation with different phases of etiquette. We had a Christmas Party on December twenty-second which, I am sure, left everyone in the best of spirits. Quite a few clubs are represented by the members of our homeroom. Among them are: Tri-Hi-Y, Hi-Y, Junior National Honor Society, Future Farmers of America, and P'uture Homemakers of America. Not to be outdone by other rooms, we have two Junior Varsity Basketball players among our midst, and, not only that, but our room has the big, handsome football star of Brookville High, Jimmy Connors.

ROOM 11 CONTRIBUTES TO SCHOOL ACTIVITIES The elected officers of Room 11 are: Ray Baughman, President; Paul Blake, Vice President; Patty Bargehr, Secretary, and Nancy Cyphert, Treasurer. Room eleven has had many different programs such as Truth or Consequences, Spelling Bees, Thanksgiving Programs and Christmas Program. There are committees picked every week by the home room officers to put on the next week’s program. Everyone gets a chance at least once a semester to be on a program committee. Three pupils of room eleven took part in our Freshman Assembly of January twelfth namely: Nancy Cyphert, Paul Blake, Gene Evans. The majority of the girls are in the chorus which put on our Christmas Assembly. Room eleven believes in going out for sports; we had two boys on the football squad and six who made the Junior High Basketball Team. In addition we have eight members in the Rifle Club and two in the Press Club. Mr. McGaughey, with the others of room twelve, has enjoyed the year’s work and activities. The home room programs presented were educational as well as entertaining. These included political programs during the campaign, a Thanksgiving program, and a Christmas party. We have two outstanding Junior Honor Society members, Donald Holmberg, and James Harding. The Rifle Club claims six members of our home room; Press Club, three; Camera Club, two. Room 12 is represented in the field of sports by Donald Holmberg, Jim Harding, Jim Johnson, arid Bob Hetrick who went out for football and basketball. Bill Galbraith is manager of the basketball team. Joan Kunselman is a Junior High cheerleader. The musicians are Perry Haupt, Bob Hetrick, Don Hauck, Mary Ellen Galbraith, and Donald Hetrick. James Harding brought another honor to our room when he attended the farm show in Harrisburg and won first, and sixth prize for his capon chickens.

ROOM 14 REPORTS A SUCCESSFUL YEAR During the first six weeks period the following officers were elected: Ruth Summerville, President; Connie Wright, Vice President; Edward Woods, Treasurer; and Shirley Shaffer, Secretary. The President then appointed Patricia Takach as chairman for the entertainment committee. Her helpers were: Patsy VanLeer, Priscilla Swartwood, Clark Silvis, and Donald Wetzel. Many projects were completed for home room activities. The amount of home room dues was voted to be twenty-five cents a semester. At the beginning of the second semester a new committee was formed. The chairman, Patty Takach, is aided by Patsy VanLeer, Marilyn Traister, Jo Ann Swineford, and Nancy Sherman. At the first meeting of this committee a Valentine party was planned. Of the thirty-six pupils, eight of them are members of the Rifle Club and two belong to the Junior National Honor Society. During Home Room Activities Periods, quizzes, spelling bees, and games were held. Prizes were given to the winners. All the students have co-operated with the officers and committee to make it a successful year. At the beginning of the school year, Room 15 elected these officers: Thomas Newcome, President; Jack Lewis, Vice President; Becky Reitz, Secretary; and Lawrence Phillips, Treasurer. Our home room programs have consisted of the following; a play, spelling bees, a Truth or Consequences show, and the Honor Roll students gave a talk on how they made the Honor Roll. Molly McGaughey, Mary Myers, Nancy North, and Becky Reitz were among the seven who participated in the Freshman Assembly Program on January 12th. Two members of home room, Nancy North and Mary Myers are Junior High Cheerleaders. In addition to these, several members belong to the basketball squad and the Rifle Club. Room 15 won the Ninth Grade Scholastic Banner for the several six week periods. We also won the Plaque given to the home room with the highest scholastic standing in the entire Junior High School. This is an honor which each home room strives to acquire. ROOM 15 HAS BUSY YEAR Part A”—First Row: Joe Shaffer. Hill Rote. Robert Reinard, Bob Means. Second Row: Sophie Sarvey. Becky Reitz.

ROOM 21 PROUD OF SCHOLASTIC STANDING Room twenty-one is proud of the fact that it held the banner and highest scholastic standing for several grading periods this year. Of course, that may be accounted for by the fact that six of the home room are members of the National Junior Honor Society. They are: Barbara Basinger, Kathryn Barr, Kathryn Bui ter, James Crawford, Kay Johns, and Barbara Hall. Early in the year the following persons were elected to carry out the duties of home room officers: Barbara Basinger, president; Richard Dillman, secretary; and Henry Carnes, treasurer. This group with the help of the various program committees and bulletin board committees kept room twenty-one functioning efficiently. Every home room meeting period provided something new and entertaining. There was always a short business meeting which was followed by a program. Sometimes there were songs, or stories, or games. These meetings were always interesting. The first meeting of room twenty-two was held on September 23, 1948. Our officers were elected and are as follows: President, Buddy Webster; Vice President, Molly Smith; Secretary, Geraldine Whiteman; Treasurer, James White. The Program committee of our room held a box social on October 15, 1948. On December 22, we had a Christmas Party and program. Besides these two main programs, we had truth or consequences contests, skits, and other programs planned by the committee. At one time or another all of us participated in the program. There are forty-one students in our room. Out of the forty-one we have two talented singers, Donald Plato and Francis Raybuck. We also have two Junior High Basketball players, Francis Raybuck and Fred Kelso, and two cheerleaders, Donwydette Pyle and Shirley Schreckengost. We also have a newspaper which keeps us up to date on all our various activities. ROOM 22 HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR Part “A”—First Row: Hud Webster, Paul Shovcstull, Don Plato, Richard Wallace, Fred Kelso.

BOB SARVEY PROCLAIMED PREVARICATOR Although the instance does not present a typical aspect of our room, it is interesting to note that Boh Survey was proclaimed the biggest liar of our room at a contest held at one of our home room programs. Many other programs were very exciting, too. For instance, one day we visited Room 24, where we two groups presented an amateur show. Joyce Wallace was the winner on that occasion. Then many times we spent our activity period in Room 24 listening to Mr. Chilcott tell of his adventures in Africa during World War II. Now, it may look to some as though we spent a greater part of our year in pleasure than in study, but that is not true. Our room claims the highest scholastic standing of the seventh grade. Those who were at the helm of our room were: Sam Whitaker, President; Barbara Wetzell, Secretary; and Joyce Wallace, Treasurer. The girls in our room never stood a chance; you see, there are only eleven girls in our room, and there are twenty-four boys. We are afraid that these girls are going to become very silent if they don’t get more of an opportunity. Nevertheless, two of those girls managed to get elected to the official board; they were Margaret Evans, our Vice President, and Sue DeMotte, who served as program chairman. They, Bob Baker, our President, Tim Fetzer, Secretary, and Bud Hetrick, Treasurer, gave us a very happy year. We had several home room programs that we enjoyed very much. Just a few of these were: Truth and consequences, Spelling Bees, Black Magic, and an Amateur Show with prizes for the best acts. At Christmas and St. Valentines Day we had parties, refreshments and everything. Our ('lass Picnic at Cook’s Forest during the last week of school climaxed a perfect year.

JAMES MARTZ LEADS ACTIVITIES OF ROOM 25 Home room 25 activities started on September 9th with the election of the following officers: President, James Martz; Vice President, Ronald Hurd; Secretary, Ruth Marie Moore; and Treasurer, Dick Osborne. Among the most interesting programs of the year was a talent show. A number of students displayed considerable talent that was enjoyed by the audience. On November 11 and December 10, Home rooms 23, 24, and 25 enjoyed Mr. Chilcott’s talks about his experiences in Africa. Mr. Chilcott showed pictures of his trip. A Christmas party was held on December 22. Gifts were exchanged and a manicure set was presented to Mrs. Faber from the entire room. A Christmas play was presented by several members of the home room and refreshments were served. Interesting programs for the rest of the year were scheduled, and the students of Room 25 had a full and worthwhile year of activity. O, those legs! A couple. Aren’t we cute? Tired? Nice bikes.

Neal Baughman the other co-captain of the basketball team was chosen to second string all-stars of the district. His modesty in his achievments has made him a great favorite. CAMPUS PERSONALITIES Dave Matson, one of the best natured boys of the Senior C lass, is very likable and entertaining. His histrionic ability has heightened his popularity. Doris ScheLlhammer’s feminine magnetism is most refreshing. 1 ler captivating ways are rare treats. Always willing, Doris is considered a pleasure to work with by her classmates. Bill Emerick has not only held his presidency for four years but also his girl Babs Hendricks. They make an ideal couple, Bill as co-captain of the basketball team and Babs as head cheerleader.

Died September 22, 1948. For the past two thousand, one hundred and sixty days we of the class of forty-nine have been reporting to various rooms of the Junior and Senior High Schools for classes eight periods a day. Every day we found our classrooms warm and clean, and for all extra activities we had heated, well-cared-for rooms. For the past three hundred and sixty school days, we have had the opportunity to eat in the cafeteria. For a small sum we have been able to get well-balanced, varied lunches.

BAND PLAYS FOR MANY SCHOOL EVENTS Two weeks after school started the band made its first appearance of the school year at the Brookville-Reynoldsville football game. From that moment on, they continued to spur the athletic teams along their successful paths. They provided the music for all home games, both football and basketball, pep rallies, and one game played at Ridgway. In February the band was represented by thirteen members at the Jefferson County Music Festival, held at Reynoldsville. At that time, a band, made up of eighty of the finest high school musicians in the county, gave a wonderful concert under the guest conductor, James Dunlop of the Pennsylvania State College. The band reached a musical peak in April when the annual Spring Concert was given. That performance showed the excellent progress the band has made under the direction of Mr. Frank Hess. Just as they started the school year with music, the band closed the year by providing music for Commencement. w First Row: Marilyn Johnson. Doris Hendricks. Linda Leathers.

First: It has been fun to get together in a group and sing. Second: Miss Romayne Aumiller has led us and has made the learning of new material pleasant and instructive. Third: We enjoyed giving the Christmas Pageant. We feel that Christmas is a time when everyone enjoys music. Fourth: We have enjoyed learning new methods of interpretation. Fifth: Recording and listening to our own music was fun. Sixth: Last, and by far the best, we like music. The Mixed Chorus is made up of seventy-five boys and girls. The group meets as separate male and female units during the early part of the week, and then on Friday it rehearses as a combined unit. The music of this group highlighted the Christmas season. Some of the numbers featured were “The Carol of the Bells,” “All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth,” and “() Holy Night.” Four boys and ten girls of outstanding ability were selected to represent the chorus at the County Concert on the seventeenth of February. They were: Ann Fort, Helen Morrison, Portia Gayley, Molly North, Norma Mayfield, Marilyn Johnson, Babs Hendricks, Pat Myers, Linda Leathers, Georgia Blake, Bill Allgeier, Bob Lindemuth, Rea Campbell, and John Dinger. The spring concert was one of the big music festivals of the year. The Mixed Chorus sang the following numbers for that program: “Dry Bones,” “All Through the Night,” “Gypsy Love Song,” “Now the Day Is Over,” “Now Let Every Tongue Adore Thee,” and a medley of Victor Herbert favorites such as, “Because You’re You,” “I’m Falling In Love with Someone,” “When You’re Away,” and “Gypsy Love Song.” Mr. Frank Hess directed the boys, and the girls and combined group were trained by Miss Romayne Aumiller.

That’s the time that the Special Chorus comes into its own. This group is composed of twenty girls from the Junior and Senior classes. This chorus was organized when the girls were in Junior High School. There are three girls who do most of the solo work for the organization. They are Molly North and Portia Cayley, members of this year’s graduating class, and Ann Port, a Junior. Doris Hendricks is the accompanist of the chorus. Miss Romayne Aumiller, teacher of vocal music, is the director of the Special Chorus. This group has sung at all the commencement programs for the past four years and at different churches. They also have a part in the Christmas and Spring Concerts. These girls enjoy music and like working together. SPECIAL CHORUS COMPOSED OF TWENTY GIRLS Seated: Doris Hendricks.

They meet as an individual group every Tuesday, and with the Girls’ Chorus as a Mixed Chorus group every Friday. The Boys’ Chorus is composed of seven sophomores, five juniors and ten seniors; twenty-two members in all. Of these, there are seven tenors and fifteen basses. The Boys’ Chorus has taken part in two assembly programs and “The Christmas Pageant.” In the Pageant members of the chorus organized a trio and sang, We Three Kings.” From the Boys’ Chorus a quartet has been organized, and several members were selected to take part in the county chorus at Reynoldsville. Some of the favorite songs that the Chorus has done are; “John Peel,” The March of the Musketeers,” and “Joshua Fit De Battle of Jericho.” The chorus also took a prominent part in the Spring Concert.

MISS ROMAYNE AUMILLER DIRECTS JUNIOR HIGH CHORUS I lie Junior High School Special Chorus continued its excellent work again this year under the direction of Miss Romayne Aumiller. 1 his group consists of seventh, eighth, and ninth grade girls who are especially interested in music. This can be proved by the fact that the group meets every Tuesday immediately following the dismissal of school. They then rehearse a variety of numbers for an hour, or perhaps even longer. There is but one purpose in junior high school students forming a chorus. I hat is, they hope to obtain enough experience to make them good members of the Senior High Chorus after they leave ninth grade. The group is not extremely active, hut this year they did sing at the Christmas Assembly. However, they deserve any praise that can he given them, because they have been willing to rehearse diligently, even though they have received little publicity for their efforts. Seated: Corky Fitts.

JUNIOR CLASS PRESENTS HILARIOUS COMEDY “The Fighting Littles,” by Caroline Francke, the comedy of the Senior ('lass of 1950, was presented December 2nd and 3rd. The fireworks really begin when Daddy Little discovers that all his daughter’s friends were absolutely what he had thought them to be, “hoodlums” with his daughter’s pick of the lot, Ham Filers, the “Worst young hoodlum of all.” Mr. Little had aged ideas about love and where it should begin. He had his pick for his daughter’s affections, Norman. Filmer meets escapade after escapade of trouble and each more spectacular than the one previous.

Each year five percent of the Junior Class and fifteen percent of the Senior Class are eligible for election. This society, which is comparable to Phi Beta Kappa in colleges, is based on four cardinal principles. Scholarship alone does not assure one’s membership. To this must be added sendee, character, and leadership. A candidate for membership must rate highly on these four points. The organization is not active because there are so few members. However, an annual banquet is held following the formal initiation. Last year, this affair was held at the “Ciolden oke Inn.” After a delicious chicken dinner, the old members and teachers were entertained by watching the new members fumble over such questions as “What was Abraham Lincoln’s middle name?” For each question missed they were forced to chew a stick of bubblegum. On such occasions, the members become better acquainted and made the organization more interesting. Florence Bockoras, Babs Hendricks, John Espy First Row: Kay Richards. Don Holmberg. Brenda Bowser.

SOCIETY BASES MEMBERSHIP ON MANY THINGS The Junior National Honor Society is an organization of which the eligibility to membership is determined on live outstanding qualities, viz: character, leadership, service, citizenship, and scholarship. The faculty chooses the students who pass these attributes to the highest degree. One year’s attendance in Brookville Junior High School is a prerequisite for being considered for membership. At the present time, the members number thirty-seven. Initiations, which are held in November and May, and of which the older members take charge, are very impressive and tend to make the student body, as well as those being initiated, appreciate the value and honor of membership in such a worthy organization. The members of the Junior National Honor Society are very active in school functions and activities, such as maintaining order in the halls, which is under the direction of a corps of monitors headed by James Crawford, while James Harding captains those who are on duty in the cafeteria during the lunch period. The Society also each year undertakes some worthy project for the benefit of the school. Last year it donated $100 to the Student Loan Fund. Mrs. Anderson as sponsor has proved to be a devoted and inspiring leader, and has devoted much time in fulfilling the obligations which such a demanding post entails. STUDENT COUNCIL LIVES AND LEARNS This is the third year that the Student Council has been active in B. H. S. It is the purpose of this organization to bring about a closer relationship between the faculty and the student body. The officers for the school year 1948-49 were John Espy, President; Pat Miller, ice I resident; Molly' Matson, Secretary ; and Larry McManigle, Treasurer. Early in the year, the official board attended the ( onference of Student Councils in Altoona. ()ne ol this y ear s accomplishments was the setting up of a financial disbursement program. I nder this program, all of the school’s money-making activities are distributed among the clubs in such a way that each organization has an opportunity to make money enough to support its activities. The Council also appointed hall monitors and purchased mirrors for the girls’ rooms and locker rooms. This yrear for the hrst time the Student Council will be in charge of Student Day.

Standing: Lamond Swineford, Helen Hagerty, Doris Hendricks. Marjorie Yarmer. Joan Hendricks. Laura Himes. Pat Rishell. Miss Long. MISS MARY LONG SUPERVISES LIBRARY STAFF The Library Staff of the Junior and Senior High Libraries is composed of seventeen student librarians this year, under the supervision of Miss Mary Long. Each student librarian is at the charging desk in one of the libraries for one period every day during the week. Duties include: charging out books, typing book cards, checking magazines, repair jobs on books, filing, and checking card catalog cards. In return for these services the students receive ' a non-academic credit per year. Staff meetings are held at irregular intervals and these are usually combined business and social meetings. This year the staff decorated both libraries for Christmas and Valentine’s Day, and celebrated both events with a staff party. Book Week, which is celebrated in November, is the high-light of the year in the library, at which time the new books for the school year are introduced to the student body with suitable displays. TIIE ARGONAUTS GO FAR AND DO MANY THINGS Have you ever heard the name Argonauts and wondered what it was? First of all, this is a club made up of the advanced Latin Students whose motto is “Longe ite multaque agite” meaning “Go far and do many things.” The Argonauts organization is based on the Roman Republic. The two officers, corresponding to President and Vice President, are the Consuls, one a senior and the other a junior. The Praetor is the Latin name for Secretary, and the Quaestor takes charge of all finances. Every month the Argonauts meet at one of the members’ homes and there take part in the meetings planned by the Aediles or Program Committee. These meetings are both educational and entertaining. The Argonauts have a good time in everything they do, whether in class room meetings, or their annual trip to Pittsburgh to the Latin Festival. It is not a very large club, but what they lack in numbers they make up in hard work and much fun. Hrst Row: Lvelvn Hatten. John Espy. Sue Clark. Larry McManiglc. Babs Hendricks. Harold Hatten.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS Le Cercle Francais is a comparatively new club in our school. It was organized two years ago by the second year French Students. The meetings are held once each month on Friday. They are conducted in French by parliamentary procedure. Refreshments and entertainment follow the business meeting. For entertainment the members sing and play games in French. One of the games is “Rhythm” in which French numbers were used. They also would play “Ou est il” (“Where is it?”), and all question and answers were in French. They played a game giving the present past and future of a person in French without knowing who it was. This year the club sent a CARPI package to a teenage girl in France. The officers of Le Cercle Francais are: President, Joan Shields; Vice President, Doris Ford; Secretary, Geraldine Sebring; Treasurer, Alice Sushereba. Miss Bertha Black is the director of the club. CAMERA CLUB PRODUCES SIIUTTER-BUGS Among the outstanding shutter-bugs this year are Bob Swartz and Clair Stewart who took the informal shots for the ECHO. Our darkroom which is a reconverted closet next door to the Agriculture Room is very well-equipped. To begin with, it has plenty of trays for chemicals. The contact printer has an orange light that will not injure the paper and it enables us to get white edges like a professional. Then there is the enlarger, purchased last year from the sale of candy at noon. A paper-cutter can be found under the table, unless Walt White has moved it again. The dryer looks something like a waffle iron with canvas on top. It dries our prints in about ten minutes. Before Christmas we purchased two masks to make Christmas Cards. One has “Merry Christmas” and the other has “Season’s Greetings.” We contemplated taking orders and making some for other people, but then we decided to learn how ourselves first.

COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club has recently applied for membership in the National organization of the F. B. L. A., (Future Business Leaders of America), and is now in the process of reorganization. It is now under the sponsorship of the United Business Education Association. The newly elected officers of the organization are as follows: 1. President—Mary Shugarts 2. Vice President—Connie Dovcrspike 3. Secretary—Louise Grant 4. Treasurer—Martha Haugh When the organization receives its charter it will begin work on a project, the purpose of which will be to better acquaint the members with the business world. The regularly scheduled meetings of the club are to be held on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. The members of this club must carry at least two Commercial subjects, maintaining a C average in all their other classes. The faculty sponsors are Mrs. Hicks, Miss Pezzuti, and Mr. Caimi. FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA The Future Homemakers of America was organized here last year. Our Club motto is “Toward New Horizons.” We are striving to make living better today that our children will live better lives tommorrow. The F. H. A. is a club for Senior High School Home Economic girls. The purpose of the club is to gain interest in the home and try to learn the best way in which we work. We have learned a lot since we have started, and we hope to learn more. We are planning next year to attend the Farm Show at Harrisburg. There are thirty-seven members in our club. We would like to have a great many more members next year. Our officers this year are: President, Shirley Bullers; Vice President, Ruth Mathers; Secretary, Lamond Swine-ford; Treasurer, Jane Barr; News Reporter, Gwendolyn Quinn; and our sponsor is Mrs. Schuckers, our Home Economics teacher.

ENABLES STUDENTS TO FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES The Future Farmers of America is an organization which enables students of Argriculture to further their opportunities in farming and make it a more successful life’s work. During the past year they have completed many varied projects. Some of these projects were very profitable from a standpoint of providing experience and practical training. Members of the F. F. A. entered exhibits at the State Farm Show last fall. Ernest Nolph and Jim Harding placed first with their entries of White Giants and New Hampshire Red Capons. Bruce Vasbinder won fourth prize with a White Leghorn trio, and Jim Harding obtained a sixth rating with a White Rock Capon. The club is not always devoted to serious activities: early last fall they sponsored a hay ride that everyone greatly enjoyed. Just ask any one who was there. Then, as another activity, the future farmers planned a trip in the interest of the club. To raise money for this purpose, the members worked hard selling Christmas cards and tickets for special assemblies. The officers for the school year were: President, Jerry Mendenhall; Vice President, Ernest Nolph, who withdrew from School to enter the armed services; Secretary, Bruce Vasbinder; Treasurer, Kenneth Byerly; Reporter, Clair Emery. Mr. William Moore, the agriculture teacher, was the sponsor of the organization. SUB-DEB UPHOLDS LADIES HOME JOURNAL IDEALS The Sub-Deb Club was organized in Brookville in 1937 and received its charter from the Ladies Home Journal. This organization is composed of twenty senior girls. The purpose of the organization is to create a feeling of friendship among Brookville girls, both in and out of school. Eac h May, ten juniors are chosen, four of whom become the new officers. Then at the beginning of the school term, ten more are elected from the senior class. The officers this year are: President, Barbara Hendricks; Vice President, Patsy Painter; Secretary, Portia Cayley; Treasurer, Mary Edwards. Miss Violet M. Ellis is the sponsor of the organization. Meetings are held on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month. The meetings follow the regular pattern of business and recreation.

TRI-HI-Y PROMOTES STANDARDS OF CHRISTIAN CHARACTER The Tri-Hi-Y is a nation-wide organization which was organized many years ago for the purpose of promoting high standards of Christian living in all walks of life. The TRI in the name is significant of the trio of important factors around which the club is built; namely, the development of the Spirit, the Mind, and the Body. Any girl in the high school who wishes to join the club may do so provided she agrees to uphold the standards of the group. No barriers are placed on anyone because of race or social position.

SCHOOL PUBLICATIONS 1948—49 YEARBOOK STAFF BEGINS WORK September 21 -Miss Joseph and Miss Ellis have been selected to assist Mr. Caimi in the sponsorship of the '49 ECHO. COMMITTEES CHOSEN FOR ECHO STAFF October 6 Donald Morrison of Brookville was chosen to do the photography for the '49 ECHO.

When the final copy arrives, it is a pleasure to look through it and to marvel at the pictures; yet the preparation of that book often brings perplexing and discouraging moments, but never a dull second. The first step in producing a book is the selection of a theme. This is done by the chairmen of the committees and the sponsors. Sometimes it calls for great ingenuity to select a theme that is clever and easy to work with. After this the various committees go their separate ways. The layout and picture group, under the direction of Miss Joana Joseph, sweated away months scheduling, mounting, measuring, and editing pictures for the ECHO. At the same time, the literary staff under the direction of Miss Violet Ellis, Senior English Teacher, strived to create write-ups with unity, coherence, and emphasis, plus originality and variety. And for many months, Mr. Frank Caimi and the business staff pursued the financial wherewithal to pay the creditors. Then all materials are given to Mr. Caimi, whose task it is to assemble the various parts for the printer. Finally, after a session of proofreading—The ECHO of Nineteen Forty Nine.

Issues from New Quarters’’—these were headlines from the first BEAM, Volume II, No. 1, September 21, 1948. Thus the Press Club started the year and continued through, bringing to the students news items, feature stories, and special columns of current interest. The success of this, the second year for the BEAM, was all due to the hard work of the reporters, the feature writers, columnists, and the editorial staff. From the enthusiastic response which the BEAM received, it is evident that the paper has won a permanent place in the respect and support of the student body. Bob Evans and Betty Jean Oakes were editor and assistant editor for the first semester. The second semester saw several changes in the BEAM. Pat Myers and Norm Smith headed the new masthead with Josey Pyle as makeup editor. New columns were added and a smaller paper was published, coming out weekly instead of bi-weekly.

BROOKVILLE GRIDIRON WARRIORS MYTHICAL COUNTY CHAMPS Brookville’s gridiron warriors took to the field under the first year leadership of Raymond Nedwidek. The final outcome of an auspicious eight game schedule found Brookville ahead in the win column with five victories against three defeats. This enabled the Red Raiders to be proclaimed the mythical champions of Jefferson County. Northwest Pennsylvania coaches and sports writers found Bob Battaglia worthy of a first string berth as fullback, and Norm Smith and Hugh Kroh worthy of honorable mention. SUMMARY OF THE GAMES Reynoldsville vs Brookville A stubborn Reynoldsville team was defeated 12-0 by the Raiders in the opening game played on the Brookville home field. Moorhead drove over to account for the first score, and Hepler, in a pass to Kroh, accounted for the second score. First Row, left to right: Coach Chilcott. Bob Battaglia. Bill Luphcr.

Brookville vs Falls Creek In a night game played in the DuBois Stadium, the Raiders ran wild in the third quarter to outclass a fighting team from Falls Creek. Smith scored on an interception from forty-five yards out in the second quarter, and in two lightning-like thrusts, Hepler and Battaglia scored in the third quarter. Hepler’s was a run of fifteen yards. “Bananas” Battaglia’s run of forty yards terminated in the third touchdown. Final score Brookville 19, Falls Creek 0. Brookvii.le vs Sykesville The Red Raiders met their Waterloo against a pack of hard-hitting Leopards. Brookville permitted three quick scores in the first quarter and worked the rest of the contest, trying to erase that 18-0 lead. Time ran out on the fighting Raiders with the score standing 24-14. Baughman caught a long touchdown pass in the end zone for the first Brookville score and Smith’s thirty yard end run accounted for their second score. Hepler booted two perfect placements. Final score Brookville 14, Sykesville 24. Brookville vs Brockway Brookville erased the sting of the Sykesville defeat by a convincing 25-0 victory over a heavy Brockway team. Hepler scored on a forty yard run, Kroh on a pass scored another touchdown. Battaglia scored in an off tackle play from the eleven, and Dave Moorhead went over on a plunge from the three. Top: Football managers: Jim Johnson. Bob Evans. Bill Smith, L c Altman. Bottom: Brookville defeats Johnsonburg. Brookville vs Ridgway The Raiders met the powerful champs of Elk County and almost upset the books; but Lady Luck frowned upon the spirited gang of warriors. Trailing 14-13 in the fourth quarter, and seemingly getting stronger, they were set back by a fumble, resulting in a Ridgway score, and two quick interceptions resulted in two more scores. hat looked like a close game ended up in the worst shellacking the Raiders absorbed all season. Smith scored on a Quarterback sneak and Battaglia on a thirty yard run. Final score Brookville 13-Ridgway 40. Brookville vs Kane I hrowing off the previous week’s defeat the Raiders journeyed to Kane and upset the Wolves by a convincing 28-13 score. Battaglia ran one Touchdown of forty-five yards aided by nice blocking, Kroh caught one pass for a Touchdown, Smith another, in addition to running another one over in a Quarterback sneak. Hepler connected for four extra points squarely between the uprights. Final score B. H. S. 28-Kane 13. Brookville vs New Bethlehem The undefeated Newbies came to town, and after a close, hard fought fracas, which easily could have gone either way, were content to return home with a 20-13 victory. Battaglia scored on an end run from nine yards out, Norman Smith scored on a smash in the second quarter. Brookville vs Johnsonblrg The final game of the year brought one of the biggest upsets in the district. The heavy team of Johnsonburg with a record of only one loss in a tough schedule was a heavy favorite to easily defeat Brookville. But in one of the most spirited games ever witnessed in the Fair Grounds, the fighting Red Raiders outplayed and outfought a top Johnsonburg team. Mark Johns scored in the first quarter, and with five seconds remaining in the first half Battaglia went over from the five. The last half was highlighted by stellar defensive play of the senior line plus excellent line backing by Moorhead, Budnovich and Hoffman. Final score B. H. S. 14, Johnsonburg 13.

The squad’s success was due largely to the stamina and skill of the squad themselves, the instruction of their very fine coach, and the efforts of their industrious faculty manager. Mr. John Chilcott, coach of this year’s squad, with his own basketball skill and extensive knowledge, imparted to the team the ability to win every home game, every league game, and nineteen out of the twenty-two games of the schedule. Mr. Charles Phillips, faculty manager and ardent supporter of the champion Raiders, with his excellent choice of c pponents and necessary equipment, added to this year’s success by providing the team with the tools of victory. Mr. Phillips’ everlasting patience always kept the team in good spirits. Then, finally, the Raiders themselves, the fighting, skillful champions of Southern Section, District Nine, deserve great praise and commendation. Graduating this year we find three Seniors, all of them are unsurpassed players in their own right. Neal Baughman, six-foot-one co-captain and forward, showed his skill in rebounding and in shooting, to the dismay of Raider opponents. Bill Emerick, forward and co-captain, earned his letter for his excellent skill in tight defense and in rebounding. Hugh Kroh, guard, descendant of a long line of basketeers, showed his ancestry in his excellent shooting and will to win. In the background, if you look closely, you may see three other fellows who have aided the Raider’s success. They are those who have borne the burden of equipment and of strained tempers; in other words, the managers. Taking care of the equipment, packing, unpacking, painting bruises, taping ankles, most of them are held to their job by the comradeship and good sportsmanship of the fellows with whom they work.

JUNIOR VARSITY IS HALF AND HALF This year's Junior Varsity had a half and half season, during which they won eleven games and lost eleven games. Most of their games were close and exciting; in fact, the majority of their games were won or lost by one or two points. This speedy, sharpshooting team was made up of Sophomores and two Juniors, Jim Summerville, and Jerry Olson. Their coach, Mr. Ewing, deserves a great deal of credit for the time and hard work he spent in producing this team. Although this team did not win all of its games, they gained a lot of extremely valuable experience, and, in the future, teams had better watch out for this year’s Junior Basketeers. JUNIOR HIGH TEAM HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR The Junior High team showed much promise for future years by winning nine games in a row before dropping an overtime decision to DuBois in their last game. Those boys who saw the most action were Davis, Pitts, Espy, Baughman, Holmberg, and Means. Others who were reserves and saw some action were Phillips, Baker, Altman, and Blake. Many others came out and worked right along with the first string every night, and, probably in a year or so will be playing J.-V. Games were played on a home and home basis with Ridgway, Clearfield, Clarion, and DuBois. Ro.v I ; Left to right: Dick Pitts. Bob Davis. Don Espy, Don Holmberg. Ray Baughman, Dean Shilling.

The fans, in turn, follow the able leadership of the seven lively Varsity Cheerleaders. They are: Babs Hendricks, Captain; and Patsy Painter, seniors: Pat Daugherty, Molly Matson, Jeanne Scheafnocker, and Mary Lou Wallace, juniors: Pat Ray, a sophomore. Miss Hosbach is their sponsor. During the first semester when Miss Hosbach was on sick leave, the girls had to rely upon their own inventiveness and persistence. These girls deserve a great deal of praise for the ambition and ingenuity that they displayed throughout the school year. The cheers this year showed unusual precision and variety. During some of the games, the girls led the student body in as many as forty-three different cheers. This year we have also three Junior Varsity Cheerleaders who slaved as diligently as the Varsity. They are: Sandy McFarland, Barbara Morey, and Ba Humphrey. RIFLE CLUB GAINS IN POPULARITY The rifle club is one of the clubs at B. H. S. which has not yet become popular with the entire student body. The club has brought some honor to B. II. S. by placing third in the state rifle match for the last two years. The team is striving to place again this year. The sponsors of the club this year are Mr. Wingert, Mr. Hess, and Mr. Means. Officers are: Charles Wingert, President; Mark Johns, Vice President; Corky Pitts, Secretary; Ann Port, Treasurer; Jim Wright, Range Officer. The club is composed of freshmen and senior high school students. 1 he rifle team is made up of the ten highest marksmen (or women, as the case may be) in the club. Practice is held in the rifle range which is in the basement of the Elementary School Building. The club now has four guns and three firing points, and construction for a new range is underway.

The purpose and goal of the club is to purchase jackets each year for the senior members. This is accomplished by sponsoring various money-making projects, such as selling programs at football and basketball games; selling peanuts, pop, etc. at games; holding a varsity club-faculty basketball game, and sponsoring professional acts in the auditorium. I he jackets this year were bought and paid for in late February, which is four months earlier than clubs in previous years have been able to obtain theirs. I his was made possible by the excellent cooperation and hard work of all the members. The club is sponsored by Air. Nedwidek, and the officers are: Bob Battaglia, President; Neal Baughman, Treasurer; and Norm Smith, Secretary. Regular club meetings are held every other Tuesday at which time business plans are formulated. BASEBALL TEAM HOPES FOR BETTER YEAR Last year Brookville’s Baseball team did not set much of a record in spite of the fact that the boys slaved for the sport. The final results showed only one win against four losses. This year the fellows are anticipating a better year with the return of veterans, McManigle, Emerick, Budnovich, Hendricks, Lewis, Winters, Shannon, Hepler, and Baughman. So far the schedule this year allows for six games, two each with Clearfield, DuBois, and Sykesville.
