It is when you give of yourself that you truly give therefore give now, that the season of giving may be yours and not your inheritors'.” — Gibran The Class of 1972 and the Merlin staff proudly dedicate this edition to Miss June Acker. It is she who has ‘truly given’ an unmeasurable amount to B.T.H.S. faculty and students. Miss Acker plays three major roles with in the structure of Burlington Township High School. As a teacher she conducts an informal class. This approach to classroom education enables the student to better relate to her, as well as others. The knowledge she transmits not only prepares the students for their future education, but also for life itself. As a class advisor, Miss Acker has revealed her dedication to the Class of 1972 by her ever present interest. From the beginning in 1968 she has strongly supported the class in every activity. Indispensable is the word which best describes her advice and insight. Most important. Miss Acker has been a friend. Her vitality and warmth always present, have been extended to all who surround her. Her cheerful personality, willingness to talk, and great ability to understand, form the basis for the Class of 1972 to respect, to admire, and love her, each in his own way. If he is indeed wise he does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom, but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind. ” — Gibran “ ... and in the sweetness of friend- ship let there be laughter and sharing of pleasures.” — Gibran 3 “Education makes a peo- ple easy to lead, but diffi- cult to drive; easy to gov- ern, but impossible to enslave.” “Andall knowledge is in vain save when there is work. ” -Gibran “Work is love made visible ... to sow seeds with tenderness and reap the harvest with joy. ” -Gibran “But you, children of space, you restless in rest, you shall not be trapped nor tamed. “ We are the seeds of the tenacious plant, and it is in our ripeness and our fullness of heart that we are given to the wind and are scattered. 6 “If this is my day of harvest, in what fields have I sowed the seed and in what unremembered seasons?” “With them the seed of wisdom did I sow And with my own hand la- bour’d it to grow.” “Too many fragments of the spirit have I scattered in these streets . . . and I cannot withdraw from them without a burden and an ache ... yet I cannot tarry longer. ” “And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation 8 “You know how little while we have to stay and, once departed, may re- turn no more.” “Ah, make the most of what we may yet spend Before we too into the dust de- scend. ” 9 Strange, is it not? that of the myriads who ire us passed the door of Darkness through Not one returns to tell us of the roa Which to discover we must travel, too. ’ “Ready am I to go, and my eagerness with sails full set awaits the wind” “And let today embrace the past with remembrance and the future with longing” yesterday.” “ For life goes not back ward nor tarries with Learning to arrive somewhere new Doing what once were dreams Changing from day to day Searching for goals in life Growing in mind and heart Beginning to comprehend Living for life itself Striving to be ourselves Loving and being loved Going our separate ways Returning in future days Ending a phase of life — Lori Minks 12 REMEMBER? Remember when we were children. The world was no bigger than our neighborhood. But our problems seemed no less than impossible. So we learned to create our own little worlds, which in turn created their own big problems. But we were only children. We hadn’t learned to accept responsibility so we were lead around by the hand of someone more responsible than ourselves. But yet we cried, “Give us more freedom. We deserve more freedom.” Freedom? Were we capable and are we capable as adults, as children, or as parasites, to handle freedom? We were so sure we could do anything we wanted to because our parents did. It didn’t matter whether it was right or wrong. But then, we were only children. We scoffed at others for the way they behaved when actually we knew we were twice as guilty as they were. Remember? But being children, we played life, because we didn’t think we were ready for the real thing. We would do anything for kicks, because we were only children. But now what is our excuse? Why do we find enjoyment in all the rotten things spite has to offer. Why are we walking around with our heads in the clouds. What can we expect to see, or hear, or feel if we don’t wake up? Have things become so impossible that we must create our own worlds? Are we as incapable as children in handling responsibility? Are we still playing life? If so, when is the GA M E going to end. BUT THEN, ARE WE OML Y CHILDREN? 14 The Class Of 1972 Mr. Lyness — Advisor Miss Acker Advisor Secretary Mary Vitullo 15 Treasurer — Susan Michael ALFRED ARRINGTON CINDY BALSAMO 16 Linda Abrams Lynn 115 Handler Drive “Good things come in small packages.” energetic long hair warm Knitting Club 1,2; Language Club 3.4; Student Council 4; Falcon Staff 4; Merlin 4; Snack Shack 4; All-school Play 4.

Under this plan students with a vocational background choose to attend the classroom for half-a-day and work half a day to further their vocation- al training under the watchful eye of an employer. Shown here is the initial class of the C.I.E. program. bROM LLbT TO RIGHT STAN DING: Frank Clark, Steve Miller, Stan Shinn, Anna Braswell, Bill Syzpulski. Mr. Hershberger.

This year’s exchange student was Renato Fraiha, from Rio de Janiero, Brazil. He arrived in the United States on Decem- ber 15, 1971 and spent 10 weeks with John Witcher and his family. At B.T.H.S. Renato became very popular. During his stay, he visited the Spectrum to lis- ten to Humble Pie, went on the Senior Trip to Mount Airy Lodge, and participated in many school activities. Renato became very popular during his stay and when he left on February 27, 1972 he left countless friends behind. Al- though Renato stayed for three short months, he will never be forgotten by the students of Burlington Township High School and especially not by the class of 1972. Can You Imagine . . .

Homecoming 58 1971 — 1972 Burlington Township’s third annual Homecoming was a “roaring” success. The festivities were highlighted by com- petition among classes in a parade of floats. The classes add- ed to the excitement by presenting comical skits at half-time. Miss B.T.H.S. 1970, Barbara Gray, returned to crown our new queen. Kathie Spencer. In Kathie’s court were Ellen Colgan, Janice Copper, Sue Heisler, and Kyle Singletary. They were all glowing beauties. Although the Falcons were not victorious, the spirit of the crowd was that of a champion group. (By the way, the SE- NIORS won the float competition).

The Class of 1972 has wit- nessed many changes at the high school during the years which have passed. Among these are the addition of the new wing, the opening of the middle school, and many curriculum changes in all subject areas to provide greater diversity and broader opportuni- ties in all programs. Such changes are important but the school has best served you in- dividually if you have developed a greater understanding of yourself and your potential and an appre- ciation of your fellow men. As you leave, our best wishes go with you. We hope that you will always consider yourselves a part of Burlington Township High School. John G. Maher Principal Robert T.

With only 8 seniors on the team, the starting lineup had to be filled with many sophomores and juniors. Such underclassmen as Alfred Howell, Ken Shinn, John Schiers, Kurt Brock, and Bruce Brown came with fine seasons and gave the Falcons football team a bright hope for the future. Other ballplayers such as Ken Wells, Dave Babula, and Kevin Raftery should be noted for fine game performances when they were called upon by Coach Stein- metz. This year Don Marren and Bruce Brown were selections in the All-Dela- ware Valley 1st team and All-Burling- ton County 2nd team. Gary Trenkamp after missing the first two games went on to become 1st team All-Delaware Valley. 90 hi ROW. E. Simpson. M. Burr. T. Thompson. A. Davis, R. Jackson, G. Barner. D. Wolfe. G.

After twenty- three long practices the team fi- nally started with 30 men, who withstood the punishing practices and hard work of Coach Cacia and Coach Moss. As a result, they proved to be the best freshman football team this school has ever put out. The proof was a well earned 7-0 record, which gave them the Delaware Valley League Title. They struggled through vic- tories against Florence. Northern Burlington, and Shawnee. 93 “It is a simply unalloyed joy to tackle yourself on the battle- field of your own physical well-being and come out the victor.” — Arthur Lyiard 94 Girls Hockey STANDING - Miss McDonnell, C.

Not so. The girls’ opponents were mainly from Group III and Group IV schools, which means competition was at its peak. Even so, the games were exciting because skill-wise our girls and their oppo- nents were well matched. Unfortunately, the opponents always managed to score more points. Anyway, its not whether you win or lose — its how you play the game. 95 Hockey . . . Realization of goals of others of one's self. . KNEELING: J. Witcher. C. Davis, M. Brewer, P. Waitz, L.

When cross-country practice started, 18 boys reported for the start of the season. With the first two weeks of practice behind us, the Fal- cons opened the season with a roster of 14. Comprised mostly of freshmen, sophomore, and juniors, it was an inexperienced team, but one willing to do the work that had to be done. After losing to some strong teams in the begin- ning, we were suddenly plagued by injuries and the virus. Coach Lorenz’s fears that this looked like the early stages of a disaster came true as the season progressed. The Falcon cross-country runners finished with a winless season, but with a group of spirited runners that never said die. For the three seniors, Pete Mesthos, Lars Fly- berg, and Bill Kane, this was their last hurrah. For the bulk of the team this was not the end of the season, but rather the start of better things to come in the future.

Besides having a varsity team made up of quite a few underclassmen (three freshman and four sophomores), the Falcons had to forfeit two bouts every meet because there was just no one to fill the weight classes. Outstanding performers on the team were: De- rek Holmes 8-2-1, Charlie Boatwright 5-5, Phil Shinn 8-2-1, Bill Bradbury 5-5, and Jim Den- nion. The Falcons are looking forward to a very successful season for next year with only two Seniors (Bill Bradbury and Jim Dennion) gradu- ating. 104 Varsity Basketball STANDING; Coach Flannery. J.

With much team effort and co-operation, the Falcons displayed great potential with a switch from the Burlington County League to the Delaware Valley League. 107 J. V.

This year's Girl’s Basketball team has fi- nally become a known participant in Burling- ton Township’s inter-scholastic sports pro- gram. Since the opening of the Middle School, the girls could be found practicing in the gym after school, instead of previous night practices. The morale of the girls was the best ever, the ability was there, and so was the fight. This led to an unforgetable season for the girls of Burlington Township, High School Basketball team. ill Girls’ J. V. Basketball STANDING: J. Trenkamp, D. Gray, T. Williams, D. Diamonti, C.

Our varsity baseball team came through last year with a fine 12-8 record and a third place fin- ish in the Burlington County League. With a fine pitching staff led by Charlie Herold and a tight defense held together by outstanding play- ers such as Dave Pica and Rick Ferrara, Bur- lington Township earned a spot in the Group I tournament. It was a fine season and under the guidance of coach Joe Holden became the only B.T.H.S. varsity sport to have a .500 record or better. In their outstanding play during the season, catcher Dick Gaglio, was named on the All- Burlington County and All-Group I South Jer- sey teams. While, pitcher Charlie Herold was selected to the All-Group All South Jersey first team. 114 115 J.V.Baseball 1st ROW: Coach Ingemi. J. Dwyer. R. Craft. D. Ferrara, G. Brant, H. Johnson. 2nd ROW: J.

Mem- bership in this organization is determined on an individual's qualities of leadership, scholarship, character, and service. The Honor Society has sponsored an art show, films, and a successful candied apple sale, to meet its ex- penses and to induce a cultural spirit within the school. Each year the main projects of the Honor Society are the Induction Ceremony to enroll new members and to provide a scholarship for some graduating senior.

President Kathy Tiesman Secretary Marly Dorward Treasurer Our Freshmen class has exhibited large amounts of enthusiasm although it seems to be typical of most freshman classes. We are hoping that our class will continue to work diligently toward the good of this school. Among our many and varied accomplish- ments include such diverse activities as our winning football and basketball teams and popular bake sale which was a complete success. In our remaining years we hope to con- tinue achieving our goals in these areas. We will also aim for new heights in aca- demic and social endeavors. 161 162 164 165 THE 1972 MERLIN Burlington Township High School, Burlington, New Jersey ADVISORS Mr. Michael De Nardis Mr. Joseph Holden CO-EDITORS-IN-CHIEF Jil Oliver Sue Michael Senior Editor Pete Mesthos Literary Editor Patti Waitz Class Editors Joyce Newell Eileen Ballinger Mary Ellen Brewer Marty Dor word Typists Claudia Edge-Editor Mary Vitullo Lynn Cox Faculty Editor Bill Hoelzer Sports Editor Randy Belknap Activities Terri Birmingham Photography and Art Editor Bruce Polhamus Production Staff Sherry Ziegler — Dedication Michelle Wargo Paula Frenz Lynn Cox Rick Craft Julie Fabi Mimi Csolti Mary Vitullo BUSINESS STAFF Business Manager Yearbook Sales Jean Michaud Advertisement Sales Lynn Cox Debi Lawrence Adult Patrons Candy Sale Winners Publicity Pam Devlin JoJanson Mimi Csolti Kevin Blakemore Student Patrons Linda Abrams Candy Sales Tricia Ireland Jeanne Durham Debby Johnson Photographer Robert Francis Studio Beverly, New Jersey Editors’ Note — As a result of limited space, it is impossible to thank all those on the MERLIN staff who dili gently worked to make the production of the 1972 yearbook possible. 166 Student Patrons l iken A Mike B.T.H.S. is better than Shawnee I-red and Edna Jane Morrow Nanc Michael Freshman arc the best Leno A Kathy W Fred and Nancy Sue and Chiko go Wed Sept '72 Gimmicks Bill Sweeney Springsidc Jil Sc Bill Simps says Oh yea Hil'cm in the head with love Norcen Sc Dave Jeanincr the weener Adeline Dave. fcd.

TRAVIA BEVERLY, N.J. 08010 In any sport, a team working together is the key to success. The talents and abilities of individuals may vary, but without the vital ingredient of teamwork, individual abilities are meaningless. Teamwork is also vital in any industrial enterprise. At our Bristol and Croyden plant locations, the Rohm and Haas team consists of nearly 2200 men and women. They help produce a wide range of chemical products that play a part in everyday living. Plexiglas® acrylic plastic shows up as tail lights on cars, windows in schools and furnishings in homes. Rhoplex® acrylic emulsions are used in paints, floor polishes, and for treating textiles. Our ion exchange resins soften water. The list is practically endless. The team that produces these products includes chemists, engineers, chemical operators, accountants, stenographers, mechanics, instrument experts. The holders of these individual skills share a common talent—the ability to work together. It results in a winning team—just as it does at your school.
