W. WlNEMILLER We, the Class of 1947, by dedicating the Spectator of ’47 to him, wish to express our sincere gratitude to Mr. I. W. Winemiller, our financial adviser. He has given much of his time in solving the many problems that have risen during our Senior year and has con- stantly urged us on toward finer thoughts and ideals. 4 -Appreciation Urjas J. Daugherty 5 We, the Class of 1947, wish to express our grateful appreciation to Professor U. J. Daugherty, our supervising prin- cipal, whose advice and co-operation have been a guiding hand through our high school years; and to Miss Dorothy Barr, our literary adviser, who has done so much to make our yearbook possible. Miss Dorothy Barr round Our Oc own -Ground Our Oc oum ScL oo imaf Dallastown High School had in the past few years talked of selecting a school animal. The time finally came when the members of the Student Council put their heads together and arranged for a school vote. By a great majority, the Wild Cat was chosen. The Wild Cat will fight to protect its young ones and it has a savage aspect, especially when irritated. We think this well suits our Alma Mater. 8 ADMINISTRATION MESSAGE FACULTY BOARD OF EDUCATION 3 Mr. Urias J. Daugherty Supervising Principal Lebanon Valley College Bachelor of Arts Degree Teaching Subjects: Physics Chemistry English We are surrounded on every hand by mighty forces in our physical world. Many of them are of such common occurrence, operate so silently, that we scarcely become aware of their presence. It is only when some unusual phenomenon of power manifests itself that we stand in awe and amazement at the Cause that produces it. Within the con- fines of the material body of every member of the Class of 1947 there are potential and vastly more potent forces than are revealed in the world of nature, seeking to be released. In both instances they will be- come our willing servants by conforming to the laws that gov- ern them, but they will destroy us if we oppose them. Man has learned to work with the force of nature but because of his intense interest in things, he has almost wholly neglected to direct the moral and spiritual forces within himself. To learn to apply these forces to the greatest advantage is one of the principal motives in education and, since educational processes do not cease on grad- uation day, the duty to direct and rightly to apply the powers now lying dormant within you is enjoined upon every member of the class. Good habits are an enormous asset to any one who possess them; habits of clear and clean thinking are of incalcu- lable value. Many have long ago been formed and we trust most of them are good. We are hoping, therefore, that it may not be thought indiscreet to encourage you, before leaving these halls that have long since adjusted their vibrations to the sounds of your voices, to take inventory of your habits, emotions and attitudes, to discard the worthless, and to improve that which is good; cultivate faith in yourself, in your fellow-man and in God; ally yourselves with a great cause; set your ideals in the realm of the stars; practice tolerance so that there may be “malice toward none and charity for all”; then, as you go out to serve, in whatever humble sphere it may be, a kind Providence will be your constant Guide and Counsellor. 0 To the Class of 1947: Again, you approach a crossroads in the path of life. Your travels over this hazardous course during the past six years were hard, indeed, but the many true friendships and cherished memories, the loyal and cooperative support contributed to make your high school a better and more enjoyable place in which to live, and the coveted diploma, an instrument signifying your preparedness to make an intelligent choice at this point, make up a prize which is great. As you continue along the next path of your journey, the manner in which you approach your task is largely dependent upon your own zeal for living. At times, it is possible to feel lost, forsaken, forlorn, hopelessly ineffective, completely stymied in a world like this. It is also possible to see the future big with destiny, and humbly, yet confidently, feel assured that it is yours to study and to interpret. It may appear as a tremendous drama unrolling before your eyes, a drama at which you are not spectators but one in which you have a real and thrilling part to play. It is our ardent hope and fer- vent wish that you, as you pro- ceed along life’s pathway, may successfully surmount the many difficulties and ultimately re- ceive a prize which is truly great.

Although she may Rive the impression of being a serious lassie, wherever there's laughter Janice is usually to be found in the middle of the group. She excels in art work and has done an excellent job on the “Beacon and Spectator” Staff. Her hobbies include music, painting, and knitting. For proof of the latter look at the mittens she wears. Whenever transportation for any affair was needed Janice and the “Buick” were always “raring to go.” Janice plans to con- tinue her art work. We’re sure she'll succeed in her chosen work.

Speaking of politely taking an afternoon off. she is always agreeable. Shirley is a member of the F. H. A. Club. If you are in doubt of anything concerning sewing or cooking, just call on Shirley.

Robert George Brenneman Student Council. 4; Vice President of Student Council. 4; Senior Ploy. 4; Chorus. 4; Basketball. 4. ► “Bob” joined D. H. S. in our senior year and easily adjusted himself to our standards. He is very much interested in sports, but it’s been definitely decided that his main hobby is wolfing,” and his second-rating hobby is more wolfing”! He can usually be found anywhere there’s women. Bob” also finds music an important interest and is a faithful fan of Benny Goodman. He has shown us his successful dramatic ability by participating in the senior class play.

She is very ambitious in her Commercial work. Anyone wishing to have some- thing typed just ask Norma. I am told she is a “whiz.” Her job this year as Mr. Kehm’s secretary kept her quite busy, although she did find time for basketball which is Norma’s favorite sport. If you really want to see Norma happy, ask her about that certain ex-soldier she’s seen with quite frequently. Norma’s future plans include a job at the York City Laundry. We wish Norma the best of luck in whatever she chooses to do. 20 Gloria Kathleen Daugherty Chorus. 1; Spectator Staff. 4. ► Here’s one of our future secretaries. Gloria is very tall of stature, but finds this to her advantage in a crowd. She seems quiet and timid, but an occasional burst of laughter marks her presence among a group of merry-makers.

Duke” was one of our star basketball players in his freshman, sophomore, and junior years.

Sports are “Duke’s” favorite pastime and he not only enjoys participating in them but also watching them. When questioned about his post high school career, “Duke replied, “Undecided.” The best of luck in whatever Harold Denton Eisensmith Chorus. 3. 4; Stage Manager, 3. 4. ► “Ike” is another witty member of our class. His jokes usually are told during classes. He says his hobby is women and we all agree with him. At present his hobby takes him to Red Lion.

S. very much has undoubtedly at one time or another heard someone shout “Hey, Wang!” That means William is around somewhere. All through high school Bill has been called “Wang by his classmates. Stamp collecting, hunting, and ah! . . . women occupies most of Bill’s spare time. Oh, yes, we forgot to mention those flashy yellow and red stockings “Bill” sports on practically every occasion, they’re really a “scream.” Math in any way, shape, or form finds “Bill very much interested. In Solid Geometry class, he often has a struggling time with that black curly hair of his until he solves a particularly difficult problem. As to future pluns, Bill wishes to some day become a member of the bar. His classmates are certain that he will attain this goal with his strong determination and winning personality. Rachel Dawn Gladfelter Chorus. 4: Interclass Basketball. 2. ► “Flicka” is one of the quiet girls of the class until her giggles get out of control. Then trouble brews!

Treva Mae Grim Class Reporter. 1; Basketball. 2; Interclass Basketball. 3; Class Play. 4; Chorus. 1. ► Although Treva is one of the shorter girls of the class, this does not prevent her from participating in sports. Treva, known to her classmates as “Grimmie, has shown acting ability in the Senior Play. If you see a brown-haired miss riding in the front seat of a black Plymouth from below Red Lion, that’s Treva. Of course, Treva is not a flirt but she certainly gets along well with all the Senior boys. Treva is one of the commercial students and her chief ambition is to be a stenographer.

I. 2. 3. 4; Spectator Staff. 4. ► Gerald is the fun-maker of our class, his wit having cost him numerous reprimands. This tall, broad-shouldered, handsome fellow teases the boys as well as the girls. “Sterl” can often be seen driving around town in his black “Chevy with his friends. His main interest seem to be at a dentist’s home, but not because of faulty teeth. That bashful innocent air of his doesn’t fool everyone. “Sterl says his hobby is playing the piano, and in our opinion he is really good. For his vocation he cannot choose between music or medicine. To you, Gerald, the class wishes the best of luck in whatever you choose. Charles Herbert Hoffman ► “Clarence” is the sailor of our class.

Those glasses that make him appear so “dignified” hide a friendly pair of twinkling brown eyes. “Harry” can swing a hot trumpet too, as anyone on the upper end of East Main Street can verify. As proof of Jerry’s leadership, he has been elected President of the Student Council. Also active in sports, he frequently helped boost the basketball scores for D. H. S. His dramatic ability has been displayed both in the Junior and Senior plays. Jerry has not yet decided upon what he will do after gradua- tion but we wish him every success in his choice. Flo Marjorie Snelbaker F. H. A. Club. 4; Art and Model Club. 1; Chorus. 1; Interclass Basketball. 3. ► Sweet and quiet in her manner, Flo is one of those capable girls in the Home Economics class. We hear that sewing is really a favorite pastime of Flo’s and we often envy the lovely results of her deft fingers. Flo spends her spare moments ice-skating, bike riding, painting, drawing and listening to popular music. We under- stand that Gershwin is a favorite composer. Besides her deep interest in her vocational subjects, Flo also enjoys English. Flo is undecided as to her future work, but we know that with her ability in using a needle and thread, her idle hours will be few. Many happy hours of sewing to you, Flo.

He also took an active part in track in his Junior year. Girls are “Chalk’s main pastime when he’s not on the basketball floor or working. Seriously, though, if a debate comes up in class, Charles is always ready to argue and usually with success. Charles isn’t too sure of what field he would like to enter after he graduates, ulthough we’ve heard him mention “law” at times. We feel confident that, whatever goal he undertakes, he will succeed. Eugene Elwood Snyder Band. 2. 3. 4; Interclass Basketball. 1. 2. 3: Baseball. 1. 2. 3. 4; Intcrclass Track. 3; Interscholastic. 3. ► Eugene rates among his many ’47 friends as one of the outstanding “flivver drivers” of the class. “Helvetian is not exactly a cowboy but he certainly can handle that Ford. He enjoys his favorite sport of baseball either as a player or spectator. “Helvetian” is also a hunter, which keeps him away from school every November 1st. His main interest concerns a certain Freshman girl with whom he is frequently seen. Eugene is musically talented for he really knows how to make a clarinet sing”! Although he has not decided as to what his life’s career will be, we feel certain that his choice will lead to success. 28 Lucille Anna Spangler Chorus. 1. 2. 3. -I; Beacon. 2. 3. 4; Class Treasurer. 1; Class Secretary. 4; Spectator Staff. 4; F. H. A. Club. 4. ► One of the brown-eyed “cuties” of the class is Lucille. If we suddenly hear one of the fellows let out a yelp, to be sure “Susie” has just pulled another prank (of course, just in defense). Her coquettish smile is irresistible and that low giRRle is really quite contagious. Lucille also indulges in reading, movies, the piano, and Icttcr-writng—oh, yes, and walking must not be forgotten, as Susie” walks the Yoe hill every day! After completing the Academic course, which she has so successfully pursued, Lucille wishes to become a nurse. Best wishes to your future career. “Susie.” William Henry Stein Senior Play. 4; Chorus. 4. ► Bill” or “Pickle,” as he is better known, is the smallest “man” of our class. His blonde curly hair is envied by all girls. When asked by one of the teachers how he keeps his curly locks his only answer was a “deep blush.” “Pickle” made quite a hit in his role in the Senior Play. Did you ever see such muscle on such a little man? Pickle has been a faithful follower of the Vocational course. He also is in doubt as to his future plans. We wish William the best of luck in whatever he may choose as his life work. Helen Louise Stump Chorus. 1. 2. 3; F. H. A. Club. 4; Secretary of F. H. A. Club. 4; Property Manager of Junior Play. 3. ► Helen or “Stumpie” as she is more frequently known, is one of the shortest members of our class. Her blushing ability is easily encouraged and registers like a thermometer on a hot summer day. Her favorite hobbies include reading, sewing, hiking and peddle pushing.” Helen is pursuing the Vocational course and is also a member of the F. H. A. Club. Her manner is that of a studious person. We assume her Domestic Arts accomplishments will make her a future kitchen queen.” The Class of ’47 extends their heartiest wishes for her success. Mary Louise Wesley Spectator Staff. 4; Prompter. 3. 4. ► One of the tallest girls in the class, Mary Lou upholds the idea of “dignified Seniors,” for no matter how noisy a class may become “Wesley can seldom be found talking. Mary is quite fond of debating, and she seems to be well versed in a great number of subjects. When anyone Rets stuck in a French translation, they always look to Mary for help and are seldom disappointed. “Wes- ley’s” favorite subjects include Physics, Chemistry and the mid- shipmen of Annapolis. Two of Mary’s favorite hobbies are reading and playing the piano. Her greatest ambition is to become a surgeon and with her progressive ability we know that she’ll be successful. 29 Charles William Wineka Baseball. 2. 3; Interclass Basketball; Sports Club. 1. 2: Chorus. 1. ► Charles, better known as Chub,” joined our Senior class at the beginning of our second semester after serving a long eighteen months in the United States Army. This friendly fellow, with the nice smile, is one of the class pranksters and helps to keep it in a continuous uproar. Although “Chub likes all sports, his favorite is definitely baseball, and he also says that he hasn’t any girl, but we wonder! Charles has no special plans for the future, except maybe, to catch up on his loafing! Seriously, though, we know Chub will succeed in his chosen work. Joseph Wire, Jr. Basketball. 1. 3: Intcrclass Basketball. 1. 2. 3: Sports Club. 2; Student Council. 2; Baseball. 3; Operetta. 1. ► “Joe,” one of our ex-G. I.’s, joined out class November 18, 1946. Before this time, he spent seventeen months in the Army. Until the end of his Junior year, Joe” was active in sports, especially basketball. Joe,” believe it or not, can be made to blush very easily. (The shade of red is very becoming!) Although he may seem shy, Joe” knows his way among women. Joe” has no definite plans for the future but the Class of '47 wishes him luck in whatever he chooses. Ruth Elaine Withers Chorus. 1; Basketball. 1. 2. 4; Intcrclass Basketball. 2. 3; Property Manager of Junior Ploy. 3. ► “Ruthie” possesses a studious and quiet nature. Being a lover of books, she finds reading her favorite pastime. Besides being known as one of the “more eager to study students” she is very active in sports. Ruthie especially “shines” in basketball. Her devotion to scientific studies will be remembered for she truly was an out- standing student in Chemistry and Physics. To watch Ruth in Chemstry Lab., one would think she was a professor herself! One of her extraordinary accomplishments was her nearly perfect attendance throughout her school life. Although Ruth is undecided about her vocation, we wish her much success in whatever she chooses. 30 a aM Off icerA President.............................Jacqueline Reigart Vice President........................Gerald Hildebrand Secretary...............................Lucille Spangler Treasurer....................................Doris Grim Student Council......................Jerry Sheffer Janice Blymire Grace Flinchbaugh Robert Brenneman Jo, 'trier C fuAAmuteA Wilda Colli flower Elwood Dunlap Raymond Ehrhart Edith Reeves Dorothy Eckard Raphael Wise William Wilhelm Gene Reisinger Curtis Tarbert Dorothy Kyle Charles Taylor Lamarr Snyder Richard Eberly Leona Hetrick 31 Sm ior CL P oem By Mary Henry The day has come for us to part And travel on our ways; But always deep within our hearts We’ll cherish memories.

Days and years will come and go, But mem’ries linger on Of our dear old Alma Mater And days forever gone. j 34 ( (aA6 ortf By Grace Flinchbaugh After graduation the Class of '47 wished, instead of looking into the future, to go back into the past and recall all the years that they shared as class- mates. Most people consider graduation as a time of great rejoicing, but to the person leaving school it is not such a jovial matter. They are saying good-bye to classmates that spent twelve years with them sharing successes and failures alike. So let us think back over our high school years. In 1913, Miss Mary Perry and M ss Eva Koche- nour greeted their Freshman class; only since Sep- tember 3, 1946 we called ourselves Seniors. Jerry Sheffer became class president with Gerald Hilde- brand assisting him as vice-president. Shirley Brant kept close note of what was going on, and told you so in the minutes she kept as secretary. All money was handle d by Lucille Spangler, and right well too, we might add! Jacqueline Reiqart and Ruth Innerst represented us in Student Council meetings. Since we were preparing ourselves for Senior Hi°h School we did not have much time for many activi- ties, although we did close the school year by having a skating party at Playland. Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Betty Keesey and Mr. William A. Kehm, Jr., teachers and students addressed us as Sophomores. Gerald H:ldebrand. chosen as president, carried this responsibility on his shoulders like an old trouper. George Jamison, as vice president, aded Gerald, when times were difficult. Taking notes, June Grove proved to be an able secretary. Mary Henry took possession of our bank bcok, while she, along with Phyllis Hamberger, described all the actions of the Student Council to us as Student Council representatives. School closed so abruptly that there was no activity planned to officially close the school year. Mrs. Suzanne Fauth received her Junior class in 1945. My, how we had traveled! Naturally every- one looked forward to their Junior and Senior years. This year, George Jamison was selected as presi- dent with Gerald Hildebrand as vice president. Doris Kehr became a very capable secretary and Mary Henry once again assumed the responsibility of treasurer. Since we were allowed three Student Council representatives they were: Janice Blymire, Grace Flinchbaugh. and Jerry Sheffer. The first holiday on the calendar was Hallowe’en. There was a Hallowe'en parade in which the Juniors impersonated a tribe of gypsies. This portrayal netted ten dollars for our treasury as winners of first prize! Next came our Junior Class Play, “Brother Goose,” which was presented under the direction of Mrs. Suzanne Fauth. Our Junior year ended as all Junior years do. with the Junior-Senior Promenade. A1 Shirey’s Orchestra supplied the music and Mr. McSherry presided over the election of King and Queen of the Prom. William Snyder, the King, and Evelyn Zarfoss, the Queen, were sought from the crowd by Lucille Spangler and Gerald Hildebrand, who acted as messengers for the occasion. The Junior class said “au revoir” at Hershey Park. Hershey, Pa., on the closing day of school. Everyone had a very enjoyable day on the roller coaster, bug, scooters, etc. Thus, another school year ended, giving us only one more year together. Seniors at last! My, how we had prayed for this year to come! Mr. I. W. Winemiller received a load of trouble when he greeted the Class of ’47, on September 3, 1946. To begin our school year, we chose Jacqueline Reigart as our president and Gerald Hildebrand again as vice president. Our very efficient secretary was Lucille Spangler, while Doris Grim hounded us for dues as class treasurer. Janice Blymire, Grace Flinchbaugh, Robert Brenneman, and Jerry Sheffer served as Student Council Representatives. As in our Junior year, a Hallowe’en Party was first on our list of activities as Seniors. Every one had a very enjoyable time and the party was a great success. The Seniors always sponsor a reception for the faculty and this year was no exception. Both teachers and student officials spent a pleasant eve- ning together. “The Groom Said No was presented on Novem- ber 18 and 19, 1946 with Mrs. Suzanne Fauth directing. This presentation was a great success. On December 19, 1946 a Christmas dance was held under the auspices of the Senior class. The entire student body of D. H. S. enjoyed this activity immensely. This year the Junior class entertained us at the annual Junior-Senior Promenade and we had a very nice time mingling with the many other guests present. Our Class Day and Commencement Exercises were the final gesture on the part of the Class of '47. Everyone rather reluctantly said “good-bye” to Dallastown High School students and teachers on May 31. 1947. Thinking over these things, we greatly appre- ciated the education we received at D. H. S. through the effort and patience of those persons who taught us from year to year. 35 JLt Wilt and 1.

S. in 1947 I have wanted to travel over the world. Well, here it is 1960, so I decided it is about time to make my ambitions come true. Another idea also occupied my mind —Why not look up my old school chums? People often say if you stand on Times Square long enough you'll meet everyone you ever knew in your entire life. This seemed like the logical place to start my journey. So early one morning I boarded the train and before I knew it I was in Grand Central Station. The excitement started before I had a chance to adjust myself to my new surroundings. A car crashed, a woman screamed, sirens began to blow, and policemen were shouting for order! A broad-shouldered man with two white-capped nurses following him pushed his way through the crowd. At once I recognized Gerald Hildebrand, Lucille Spangler, and Doris Kehr all doing a wonderful job on the persons injured in the accident. When all the excitement was over I spoke to them and dis- covered that they were all employed at the same hospital and enjoying their work im- mensely. I really meant to go to Times Square next but I passed Radio City on my way and just had to stop there. Lo and behold as I entered I heard someone say “you’re on! and right before my eyes was William Stein. My journey was certainly thus far successful. You can bet your bottom dollar I wasted no time in talking to Bill. He was quick to reply that he was really living a life of bliss and wanted me to go along home with him and meet his family, but I had so many other things to do that I excused myself and told him to be sure and see me if he is ever in the vicinity. With all this excitement going on I soon became very tired so I decided to go to a hotel and rest. You know times have changed since 1947! Everyone always thinks of the Waldorf- Astoria when looking for a hotel in New York, so I naturally thought of it too. I went inside and after engaging a room wandered into the dining room where I heard sweet music coming from the platform. Everyone’s attention was centered around the handsome orchestra leader whom I recognized as none other than Jerry Sheffer! You can imagine my surprise and delight at seeing him! Later I spoke to him and found that Charles Snyder, another of my school friends, was a lawyer for a large corporation on Wall Street. Both Charles and Jerry were married and very proud papas. After speaking with Jerry I decided to spend the evening at the opera. Donning my best formal I was soon outside the Metropolitan Opera House. My favorite opera, Mignon, was going to be sung. A woman looked at me rather strangely and after a few minutes I recognized Jacqueline Reigart and Ruth Withers coming toward me. My, but my old school chums pop out of every nook and comer! “Jackie is now a detective, believe it or not, working for the F. B. I. I wished “Jackie” happy hunting and asked Ruth what she has been doing with herself, only to find that she is a lab technician for DuPont and knowing how she liked Science sub- jects at D. H. S. you can well know that she is enjoying her work. All three of us went inside and heard a beautiful rendition of Mignon.” When I was once again in my room at the Waldorf-Astoria I marveled at all of my school- mates that I had seen. But tomorrow is another day and the day of my departure from New York for Washington, D. C. The next day promptly at six A. M. my train arrived and I was off to Washington! Once seated on the train I noticed three very good-looking ladies coming down the aisle. The next instant I jumped to my feet and at once Gladys Poff, Ruth Innerst, and Treva Grim recognized me as I had them. They were on their vacations and having a delightful time. Of course I didn't have to ask them what they were working as everyone knows they are stenographers. Being in Washington I decided to see some of the historic places it holds. My attention was drawn to the Lincoln Memorial where—yes, you've guessed it, I saw not one, not two, but four of my classmates—Norma Crowl, Janice Bly- mire, Doris Grim, and Shirley Brant. Norma informed me that she is the secretary of the President of the United States and leading a very exciting and busy life. Both Janice, now a dental hygienist, end Doris, a nurse, are em- ployed at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. Shirley, of course, is teaching the little kiddies the three R’s”. Since I had only five hours to spend in Wash- ington my search was in my estimation a very successful one. My next stop is Miami, Florida. By the time I arrived there I was very anxious to get into the water and go for a nice long swim. Leaping from the water I practically knocked Joseph Wire. Donald Deller, and Charles Hoff- man down before recognizing them. Joe, as you may already know, is a machinist and leading a very busy life eleven months out of the year and 42 the other month lives the life of Riley. Duke' Deller reported that he is just a happily married man, and Charles is still happy-go-lucky and following the adage ‘‘wine, women, and song.” After such a delightful swim I decided to wire my parents that I was enjoying myself. As I entered the office I heard a very sweet “Good afternoon and at once thought of Maud Mark- ley's soft voice. Sure enough she was behind the desk looking as pert and efficient as ever. Before I had time to gather my wits Rachael Gladfelter appeared, much to my surprise. Both the girls are married and as they put it. “getting a kick out of their work.” Maud and Rachael told me that Cecelia Klunk, Velma Sechrist, and Charlotte Mummert had a beauty salon about a block away so I thought I’d look in on them. They were surprised to sec me and thought I was a prospective cus- tomer. They really had a nice shopp and many, many clients. In a telephone directory I found George Jamison's name and behind it the title. Funeral Director. Knowing that this had been George’s one ambition, I called on him, discovered that he was very successful, and said Good-bye” all in five minutes, he was that busy. Well, it was time I was leaving Florida and going on to California as I intended to meet a large number of my friends there. So I arrived at the airport and a very nice-looking young lady greeted me with a hearty Hello, there, and right before my eyes stood Helen Stump in her trim air hostess' uniform! Helen's wit and per- sonality put the passengers at ease during the whole journey. We talked over old times when she was not carrying out one of her numerous duties. '; The first thing I did upon arriving in Cali- fornia was to secure a ticket for the Rose Bowl football game. The game was between Navy and U. C. L. A. so I knew it would be very exciting. At last the day for the football game dawned! As I entered the gates whom should I meet but Robert Brer.neman and Eugene Snyder looking very handsome indeed in their Lieutenant Com- mander’s uniforms. They were, of course, all for Navy so, I followed suit and rooted for Navy. By the way, I also saw Mary Lou Wesley and Phyllis Hamberger, both wholeheartedly enjoy- ing the game. Mary Lou, as you may already know, is a surgeon and Phyllis is her faithful secretary besides being a very competent little housewife. Leaving the football game( which, incident- ally, Navy won), I decided to go to one of the large moving picture corporations in Hollywood as I knew some of my classmates were employed there. Sure enough, right at the gate Harold Eisensmith, the gatekeeper, greeted me and informed me that three girls, Gloria Daugherty, Myrtle Meek, and June Grove were in the office keeping tabs on the numerous business trans- actions executed therein. June explained that she was bound in the bonds of matrimony and that Myrtle and Gloria were likewise intelligent sec- retaries as well as housewives. William Flinchbaugh performed all the corpo- ration's legal affairs as their lawyer. Of course Bill has said, “I do” as the girls had done. Flo Snellbaker, the costume supervisor, was so very busy that you couldn't even say Hello to her sensibly, at least I couldn't! Donald Ness was the same jolly fellow that he had been at D. H. S. He is now chief engineer at this corporation. After I left Hollywood I decided to do some shopping in Los Angeles for you just can't miss a shopping jaunt in California. Looking in a shop window I saw two figures standing behind me and turned to face Mary Henry and Harriet Sechrist. Mary was really having a delightful time teach- ing the little children their P's and Q’s, while Harriet had her own beauty salon on the next block. Saying good-bye to Mary and Harriet I thought I'd call June and see if we could go to a movie or something in the evening. As I entered a drug store whom did I meet but Ruth Jennings, who by the way is happily chained in wedlock. We sat at the fountain and had a soda together while recalling our school days. Just as Ruth was about to leave Glenn Kinard, now a welder, came in the door and I sat down and had another soda. (What’s going to happen to my waistline?) At last I was in the telephone booth. When I lifted the receiver a very pleasant voice said, “Number, please” and when I gave the number the voice said, “Grace, is that you?” and at once I recognized Cathryn Grove’s meek voice. We had a very nice conversation and when I finally left the booth I discovered that I had forgotten to call June after all! Well, maybe it was fortunate that I didn’t call June because I just remembered that I had some books to get in order before reporting back to school. Oh, yes, I must have forgotten to men- tion it—I’m a school teacher and having a mighty fine time of it, too! By Grace Flinchbaugh 43 We love thee our dear D. H. S. And now we bid adieu; We’ll ne’er forget all the cheerful days That we have spent with you. You’ve taught us all the things we need To build a future true. Our loyalty will never fail To you our White and Blue. 44 These four long years we’ve spent with you Will in our mem’ries hold dear. Now that we leave your well-trod halls Our eyes are filled with tears. The world that we must face alone To us is drawing nigh. Our hearts are heavy as we say Good-bye, dear Dallastown High.

Plans and construction work were under the supervision of Miss Hench, aided by Mr. Prince and students of the Home Economics and Shop Departments. 65 'Uisuaf__ ici Many happy hours were spent this year through the facilities of the moving picture projector and amplifier. This was made possible by the Class of 1946, who presented it in a spirit of appreciation for what their Alma Mater meant to them. It has proved invaluable for educational purposes as well as for entertain- ment and has been used in every department in the school. “Prospects in Pose” taught a lesson in good salesmanship to the Commercial students while the Home Economics Department reaped valuable information from “Gentle Art of Meat Cookery.” Shop students were interested in “Douglas Fir Plywood” and Mathematics classes enjoyed “Origin of Mathematics.” The entire student body was greatly impressed by the film “Tom Brown’s School Days’ and recall many assembly programs in which the projector was used. Its worth to the school curriculum cannot be calculated and is deeply appreciated by all members of the entire student body of D. H.

Planned for months in ad- vance, nearly every organization of the community took an active part in it. Bands and fire com- panies from nearby towns were invited to participate. The open- ing event was a six-day carnival, held on the Athletic Field. Wel- come Home badges were sold. Finally came the last day! A grand parade was the first event. Thousands of people lined the streets to witness this colorful spectacle, which proceeded to the Athletic Field where Governor Martin presented a memorable oration. But that wasn’t the end. It was rather the beginning. The top event was the musical which was presented in the eve- ning. Music was furnished by the Civic Orchestra, a large mixed chorus, and a girls’ chorus. A miniature minstrel show and a Betsy Ross playlet were pre- sented. The finale was a pageant featuring forty-eight girls as the forty-eight states. This Welcome Home Program was a magnifi- cent event and one not easily forgotten. Colonial Company Float J4ome Dallastown Boys’ Band U. S.

Jeff’s patience is tried by everyone from the housekeeper to his fiance. “Hyacinth Adams”—Doris Kehr, tries to play football indoors and enrages the “truck driver”—Gerald Hildebrand, yhen she revengefully puts “wheat puffies” in the engine of his truck, while her brother, “Wes —George Jamison, drives the whole family crazy over his latest crush, “Eve”—Janice Blymire, a glamorous southern belle and her sister “Carol”—Norma Crowl, who indulges in writing limericks in hopes of winning a car. Lenore”—Doris Grim really keeps Jeff in a dither with her plans for their future and “Mrs. Trimmer”—Jacqueline Reigart, a client of Jeffs, contributes her turn of confusion to the disorganized household. Everything turns for the better, though, when “Peggy”— Grace Flinchbaugh, a hosiery saleslady is mistaken for the new maid and is persuaded to stay and straighten out the family after one housekeeper, “Helen”—Mary Henry, quits in the middle of everything and “Sarah”—Ruth Innerst, at her wits end is about to do the same. The cast of Brother Goose poses for the grand finale. £ emor “THE GROOM “Steve” tries to pacify “Ed” who comes to defend “Clara. “The Groom Said No depicts what happens when “Steve Cameron”—Gerald Hildebrand, returns from the South Pacific expecting to find a tranquil atmosphere. “Mrs. Cameron”— Jacqueline Reigart, proves to be a perplexing problem when she insists that Steve go through with the marriage to “Clara Curtis”—Mary Henry—“the girl he left behind,” which she had planned while he was away. But Steve has fallen in love with a “Navy nurse”— Janice Blymire, and concocts a scheme whereby he pretends to be a psycho-neurotic and has a relapse. Mrs. Cameron agrees that he needs special nursing and of course Steve sug- gests sending for Miss Anderson, just long enough to teach Clara how to take care of him. “Mother and “Clara administer first aid to “Steve during his pretended relapse. 76 SAID NO” Mother suffers from headaches caused by her family while “Father and “ Patty” stand by. Of course Mrs. Sorenson”—Cecilia Klunk, the town gossip, offers her priceless advice whenever possible. “Virgie”—Doris Grim, sympathizes with Clara while “Patty”—Doris Kehr, speaks her own mind in favor of Steve and Mr. Cameron —Jerry Sheffer, isn't too sure about what he should say. Willie Williams”—Robert Brenneman, a food fiend and Virgie’s beau, proves quite a problem for her and Mary Alice Smith”—Treva Grim, steals the show with her pigtails and coloring books. Everything reaches a happy climax when “Ed Smith”—William Stein, promises to marry Clara in defense and Steve returns to his normal state of mind once again. 77 “Virgie finally tells Willie’ what she really thinks. On the eve of May 24th, the Junior-Senior Promenade was held, marking the climax of the year. The gym was transformed into a softly lighted garden, surrounded by a laurel covered stone wall. White Adirondack lawn furniture added to the scenic back- ground. A rock garden, disguising the bleachers, was beautifully displayed around the royal throne bedecked with flowers. The highlight of the dance was designated by the crowning of the May King and Queen who were selected from the senior class of 1946. Charming Evelyn Zarfoss was chosen “May Queen’ and William Snyder was chosen May King.” Special entertainment was given by Phyllis Welty, vocalist, and William Hess, trumpeter. A1 Shirey’s Orchestra supplied the pleasing music and everyone present seemed to be in his “seventh heaven. 78 The annual Hallowe’en Party, sponsored by the Student Council, was one of the highlights of the year. “Shirts ’n’ overalls” were the common dress for everyone. Games, followed by refreshments, made up the first half of the program, faculty and student body participating in both, while the remainder of the evening was devoted to dancing. The Paul Jones and the Conga Line were the favorites. A gay and glorious time was had by all, and a large portion of the student body topped off the evening by attending the midnight movie. 79 Dancing to one of the many tunes played by the Dallastown Swing Band. (LlristnxaS =2). ance Dancing around the gaily decorated Christmas tree which was the main attraction in the gym. Something new has been added! Yes, a Christmas Dance has found its way to D. H. S. Holly, red ribbon and mistletoe were the trade marks of the occasion and that brand-new dance band really “hit the spot.” The smooth waltz or the popular swing—take your choice—the band pro- vided plenty of both! We were pleased to have as guests of honor, several members of the Board of Education. Approximately two hundred persons attended this evnt, enough so that in all probability it will occupy a regular place in the school calendar. 80 The Conga Line afforded much amusement and entertainment for the participants and spectators.

Off to such a promising start, we know that they will continue on their successful road. 85 Senior December 6, 1946 Hailam 31 - Dallastown 28 Our first league game was very close, with the score tied at the half. In the last quarter, with a number of our players injured, Dallastown went down to defeat fighting fiercely. December 13, 1946 Dallastown 43 - Stewartstown 28 Dallastown took the lead in the early part of the game and retained its lenRthy lead through- out the entire game. The Reserves played the last quarter. January 7, 1947 Dallastown 38 - Mt. Rose 27 Leading by only two points at the half, Dallas- town battled its way through stiff opposition to maintain its lead. In the second half, Dallastown lengthened its lead by scoring twenty-one points to the opposition's twelve points. Snyder jumps for D. H. S. January 10, 1947 Dallastown 50 - Codorus 31 Dallastown played host to Codorus with our Junior Varsity starting the game. The Dallas- town Varsity played only six minutes of the entire game. January 17, 1947 Dallastown 45 - Delta 29 In the first quarter the game was anybody’s game with the score being Dallastown seven. Delta five. In the second half Dallastown dashed ahead by scoring twenty-seven points to Delta’s seventeen. January 24, 1947 Dallastown 50 - Glen Rock 44 Glen Rock took the lead in the first quarter but our boys came back in the second quarter to obtain a substantial lead which they maintained with some difficulty throughout the second half. 86 We try for a basket. a yarned January 27, 1947 Hallam 46 - Dallastown 41 The first half ended with Hallam ahead by a slim lead of five points. The second half was anybody’s game, but Hallam mustered their forces for a final plunge and came out on top at the end of the game with a five point lead. January 31, 1947 Dallastown 40 • Stewartstown 32 This game, contrary to expectations was close with Dallastown leading by only two points at the half. Dallastown obtained an early lead in the second half and retained it throughout the remainder of the game. February 11, 1947 Dallastown 32 - Mt. Rose 25 As expected this game proved very troublesome with the score tied up at the half time. At the end of the third quarter, Dallastown had a one point lead and the last quarter we pulled ahead by scoring eleven points to Mt. Rose’s five. February 14, 1947 Dallastown 37 - Codorus 28 In the first quarter, Dallastown made little headway with the score five to five. In the second, Dallastown outscored the Codorus team, sixteen to three. In obtaining this lead, Dallas- town stayed in the lead for the remainder of the game. February 18, 1947 Dallastown 48 - Delta 28 Playing with their usual spirit, Dallastown bucked its way through some opposition, took an early lead, and in doing so, sent Delta stag- gering home under a twenty point defeat. February 24, 1947 Glen Rock 37 - Dallastown 29 Dallastown dashed away with a six point lead at the half and maintained this lead through the third quarter. At the automatic of the fourth quarter, the boys folded up to lose the last and final game of the season by eight points. 87 Cheerleaders at rest. unior Score for Junior High! November 27, 1946 West York 23 - Dallastown 12 Junior High started off their season by losing a heart-breaking game to West York. Dallas- town was the underdog during the en'ire gam-� but kept their opponent to a minimum score. December 3, 1946 Dallastown 53 - Mt. Wolf 29 Dallastown grabbed an early lead in the first quarter but almost lost in the second. In the second half the boys settled down into the harness and won the game by an easy margin. December 10, 1946 Dallastown 31 - Red Lion 15 In the first quarter, Red Lion put up a stiff resistance but in the second quarter, Dallastown crushed the resistance to secure a substantial lead which was retained throughout the third and fourth quarters. December 20, 1946 Dallastown 31 - Dover 17 Contrary to their usual quick get away, Dallas- town scored only two points against Dover’s one In the second and remaining quarters, the game took on more color with Dover outscoring Dal- lastown in the third quarter but still to wind up fourteen points behind our boys. January 7, 1947 Mt. Rose 28 - Dallastown 21 At the half time, the score stood at six to six, and at the end of the game, it was necessary to go into an extra quarter. Mt. Rose carried away the honors by outscoring Dallastown and the whole affair ended by Dallastown trailing their opponents by seven points. January 14, 1947 Dallastown 39 - North York 32 Throughout the first and second quarters, Dallas- town maintained a generous lead but the second half changed the color of the game with North York outscoring Dallastown by six points. Des- pite this dangerous setback, Dallastown won by a comfortable seven point margin. December 17, 1946 Dallastown 39 - North York 16 Once again Dallastown, playing host to the North York team, carried away the honors by taking a decisive victory from the North York team. Only in the first quarter did the game have any appearance of being close, with the score at eight to five in favor of the home team. Dallastown outscored their opponents in all three of the remaining quarters. 88 Will it go in? January 21, 1947 Dallastown 22 - Red lion 20 Dallastown, assuming the defensive, trailed by four points at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter, the balance was in the other direction and at the half time the score was tied at seventeen. By scoring two foul shots in an extra period, Dallastown was able to win the game by those points. January 29, 1947 Spring Grove 51 - Dallastown 31 Gaining an advantage early in the game, Dallas- town came out of the first quarter leading by six points. In the second and remaining quar- ters, however, Dallastown failed to retain this lead and Spring Grove carried away the laurels by defeating Dallastown by twenty points. February 4, 1947 West York 38 - Dallastown 26 In the first quarter of this exciting game, Dal- lastown secured a two point advantage but West York sprinted ahead to a three point lead at the half. The second half also proved to be West York's as they outscored our boys by nine points. Is it a basket? February 7, 1947 Dallastown 54 - Dover 14 Encountering little opposition in this game Dal- lastown seriously injured the morale of Dover by coming up with a twenty-eight point lead at the half. The remainder of the game proved the same, with Dallastown winning by a thirty point margin. February 11, 1947 Mt. Rose 36 - Dallastown 22 Doing a splendid job, despite the fact that they trailed the entire game, Dallastown put up a strenuous resistance. However, all this was in vain and Dallastown went down to a twenty- two to thirty-six defeat. February 25, 1947 Spring Grove 48 - Dallastown 30 Again Dallastown failed to connect and Spring Grove walked away with the game. Dallastown was outscored in every quarter but not out- played. Dallastown missed victory by an eigh- teen point margin. February 28, 1947 Dallastown 36 - Mt. Wolf 32 Ending their season. Dallastown secured a hard- earned but well-deserved victory over Mt. Wolf. In the first half, Dallastown maintained a fair lead, but the second half was anybody’s game. However, Dallastown came out on top to the tune of a four point lead. 89 Up in the air!

After lying idle for one complete season, the female group has returned to the lineup of the York County Scholastic Girls League. Thus far, the Blue and White sextette has not been very successful. Being defeated in six out of seven games, the girls retain courage and hope that the other students realize the fact that the loss of a years' experience is the greatest cause for this unsuccessful season. The sextette dropped its first game to Y. C. I., finding themselves lost on the very large floor. Dallastown was very much in the game during the first half, trailing by only two points at the intermission. In the third quarter, the Y. C. I. six came back strong to hold the local girls to six points, while collecting seventeen for them- selves. D. H. S. recovered somewhat in the fourth period only to hear the final whistle which spelled defeat. The team next traveled to Dover where they met a very strong squad. Being completely out- scored from the beginning of the game, the local girls went down to a miserable 48-12 defeat for their second league loss. In the next game the D. H. S. girls met North York. Leading by only two points as the second quarter was under way, the visitors dropped the Blue and White six far behind as they com- pletely outplayed the local lassies. Then they played the Hallam sextette. In this contest, Dallastown made sure of its victory from the start. When the half-time whistle blew, the Blue and White cagers were leading their oppo- nents by an 18-5 score. With a thirteen point lead, the reserve team took over. They found the hoop three times while the Hallam girls produced nine points to bring the score up to 24-14. In the last quarter, D. H. S. again made only three points while their rivals collected six. 92 a _jameA When the final gun sounded, the local girls had won their first well-earned victory by a score of 27-20 which placed them fifth in the County League. The Blue and White six then journeyed to West York where they surprised the home team in the first quarter by limiting them to five points while looping two for themselves. D. H. S. dropped behind in the second quarter to end the first half at 12-5. The local girls came back with strength regained in the third period and held West York's Blue and White to two points while scoring three for themselves. However, they lost out completely in the final period when West York produced nine points and Dallastown was limited to one, ending the game at 23-9, moving the West York cagers to second place in the Scholastic Girls’ League. Y. C. I. again very successfully defeated the Dallastown sextette on our home floor. The local girls were held scoreless during the entire first period while the visitors rallied six points and then completely outscored our Blue and White in the remainder of the game. Dallastown High met the undefeated Dover Eagles for the second time and was completely overtaken from the start. The visitors collected twenty-two points the first half while our girls had not found the hoop once. The Blue and White improved slightly in the third quarter but were decidedly outplayed throughout the entire game for their sixth league loss. The North York Panthers greeted Dallastown with their reserve team to find that they would need their Varsity who took over in the second quarter. The first half ended with the score 12-4 —North York leading. During the third period the Blue and White cagers held the Orange and Black six to eight points, tallying seven for themselves. The two teams played on even terms the final quarter, each collecting six points, but D. H. S. was not able to close the nine point gap that was opened in the second quarter, and fell to a 26-17 defeat. The D. H. S. sextette next played host to West York. Our local girls entered the game with high hopes, however, without the aid of one of the Varsity. But the Wild Cats' hopes were completely shattered when they were held to one foul shot in the first half with West York tallying ten. Matters turned for the worst in the third period when West York's Blue and White sank thirteen points while the local lassies were limited to two. In the fourth quarter, the home team was again outscored 8-5, ending the game with a decisive 31-8 victory for West York. Our Blue and White played their last game at Hallam where they hoped to gain their second victory. Things started with a bang, and when the smoke cleared the Dallastown six found themselves on the tail end of an 8-3 score. In the second period matters did not improve, for as the halfway gun sounded the Wild Cats were trailing by a score of 16-10. D. H. S. was held scoreless in the third quarter while the rough Hallam cagers tallied four. The local girls came back vehemently in the last period to outscore their rivals 13-12. But the D. H. S. lassies were not strong enough to break up the lead that Hallam’s Orange and Black had gained early in the game, thus ending their season with a final loss of 32-23. This year’s team was an inexperienced one and therefore was not too disheartened over their many defeats. They are looking forward to next year when they hope to gain the interest of the entire school by having a much more suc- cessful season, and we parting seniors can only look forward to rooting for them to win the games that we lost this year.

This SPORT is not a newcomer at Dallastown High School since, in recent years, as many track stars as any high school could hope for participated in track meets with great success. In reviving this sport, we know that the promising young athletes in the school will help Dallastown High to live up to its hard-earned reputation of past years. 94 We, the Class of ’47, extend our best wishes for success. Ph sica (L xam Back, back—far in the past—long before Christ’s birth—there lived in Greece a remarkable philosopher whose teachings have colored the educational picture ever since. This man, Plato, taught the ideal of “a strong mind in a strong body.” That ideal is just as pertinent to us in our day as in his, and we are ever striving to maintain and advance that ideal. It is with this in mind that the legislators and educators of our state have inaugurated a plan which offers a thorough physical examination to every student and teacher in the public schools of Pennsylvania. Above is pictured a physical examination actually taking place in our school. We are indeed thankful for such health projects. 95 We, the Class of ’47, will be the last class to graduate before football in Dallastown High School has been started. This does not mean, however, that the Class of ’47 will not support the High School in its football career, whether in victory or in defeat. We know that the noble spirit of D. H. S. will carry it through regardless of the obstacles in the difficult path of developing an effective football eleven. In direct contrast to expressing our sincere regret of not being able to participate and cheer as students for football, we hope that the underclassmen will support foot- ball for the good of Dallastown High. We, the Class of '47, extend our most sincere wishes for successful seasons in football. toc raph 97 a Iron A Rev. and Mrs. George D.
