This year we purchased sweaters in our class colors of green and white. We had two parties, one at Doris Nussbavun ' s home and a roller skating party at Skateland in Canton. As we started out on the third part of our journey we had forty-six passengers. Our conductor was Mrs. Marian Amstutz,our engineer wasRussell Gerber as Presi¬ dent, oul hostess was June Gerber as Vice-President, her assistants were Gwendolyn Graber and Carole Graber as Secretary and Treasurer respectively, and our fireman was Eugene Hazel as Sgt.-at-Arms.

A few of the notable passengers this year were star foot¬ ball players. They were Ronald Amstutz, Russell Gerber, Norman Moser, Eugene Hazel,Charles Lavering, and Harold Hauenstein. They worked and played hard. Some of these boys also played basketball. Then came the big event, oxir train halted for the Junior-Senior Banquet, which was a Meri Irish Frolic— this was quite an event. We lost only eight passengers during this part of our journey.

Our rehearsal for this work was the monthly publication of o ir school paper, The Barker. We proudly consider these achieve¬ ments as some ofthe factors that contrlbutedto oxir suc¬ cess as a Senior Class. Another great adventure during one of our stops,was the Senior Class Play. We are very proud of the dramatic ability that exists in our class. Then came our final stop before reaching our des¬ tination: The Jimlor-Senior Banquet. We were guests of the Juniors,who are to be commended for the fine enter¬ tainment and the delicious food that was served.

Ima Smith was chosen for both a Football Cheerleader and a Reserve Basketball Cheerleader. We were honored by having seven of our boys chosen for the Mixed Chorus which is usually comprised mainly of Juniors and Seniors. All the Freshmen girls were in the Glee Club and we were very well represented in the Marching Band, the Orchestra, the Concert Band and in the Music Contest. f ; I First Row: John Earl Sprunger, Kenneth Amstutz, Ronald Raber, M vln Lehman, Robert Weik¬ ert, Clarence Weygandt, Clair Clark, Ernest Weaver, Raymond Ressler, James Nussbaum Second Row: Sylvia Slabaiagh, Marilyn Shaffer, Wanda Ryneer, Gregory Close, Loretta Snavely, Elizabeth Mason, Lewis Snyder, Earl Hazel, James Fahrnl, Edson Graber Jr,, John Ellis Sprxinger, Richard Snyder, Ronald Hostetler, Ernest George Third Row: Marlene Moser, Bessie Steiner, Elizabeth Lehman, Pat Kerr, Rowena Garman, Rebecca Stockham, Roger Eberly, James Bolender, Dennis Brillhart, Myrron Horst, Dean Sullivsui, Donald Hofstetter, Thomas Brown Foxirth Rowr Vida Schloneger, Vera Schloneger, Margaret Steiner, Lavonne Hauenstein, Ima Smith, Marlene Cline, Grace Rehm, Virginia Reed, Genevieve Nussbaum, Nathan Yoho, Danny Shisler, Verna Lower Fifth Row: Shirley Swisher, Msucine Mumaw, Marjorie Hofstetter, Amos Ziramerly, Colleen Nussbaum, Shirley Hare, Anna Belle Lehman, Carrol Eggeman, Ruth Ann Fogle, B6u bara Butzer, Margaret Martin, Florence Hartzler Sixth Row: Mr, Berg, Paul Wertz, Robert McGovern, Larry Gardner, Pearl Ault, Karl Werntz, David Gerber, Jerald Nichols, Myron Werntz, Raymond Good, Harlan Nussbaum, David Gard¬ ner, Billy Sommer, Rose Marie Gerber f 21 LATIN CLUB In 1950 the Latin classes had a Roman banquet, for which they dressed in Roman style costumes and ate only the kinds of food that were used in ancient Rome. The Freshman acted as slaves and served the second year class. The evening was so much enjoyed that this year ' s classes held a similar banquet. Again we had sport in imitating Roman costumes andfoods. With no forks on the table the diners were compelled to use fingers and spoons in un¬ accustomed ways, thus adding to the general merriment. Both years the Latin groups have prepared to sing Christmas Carols and other songs in Latin and have pre¬ pared short plays. As this is being written a play is being prepared for use in an assembly program which we hope those who hear will understand and enjoy. This year two Latin clubs have been formed to act as sponsors of needy orphans overseas. It seemed suit¬ able for students of a foreign language to be interested in helping unfortunate children who speak in foreign lanquages. Club No. 1 is sponsoring a boy in Finland while Club No. 2 has for its foster childa little Korean girl.

Dalton drew Fredericksburg for its first opponent in the Wayne Coimty Tournament. Dalton and the P’reddies we re tied eight times andthe score changed hands eleven times as neither team could pull ahead to a comfortable lead. The horn blew when the Freddies were ahead 44 to 43. Dalton met the Apple Creek Aces to open the first roundln the consolation series. Dalton led all through the game as we proved superior to the Aces and won by a score of 52 - 46. We next tangled with Burbank. When the final gun went off Dalton lead 4l to 22, Dalton met the Fredericksburg Freddies for the second time in the tournament. The Freddies jumped to an early lead, but Dalton came roaring back inthe second half. The Bulldogs led 52 - 5l with five seconds making it 53 - 52 in favor of the Freddies,thus putting Dalton out of the tournament. School Calendar Continued; history club The Hi3toi y Club came into being as adire ct result of the activities of the Citizenship Education Project, While working on a project Locating Areas for Student Action, it was suggested that a group be formed to in¬ fluence action in permissible areas. An organizational meeting was held January 26, 1952, with twenty-two stu¬ dents and a faculty member present. Charter officers were elected as follows; President ----------- Martha Wertz Vice-President -------- Walter Stoll Secretary-Treasiirer ------ Shirley Lance Other members ofthe history classes who helped the officers formulate the constitution were: Glenna Frase Dale Stoin, George Kelbly, Jim Swartz, Carolyn Lehman and Trenna Tinsler, A drive for charter members was started with results quite successful, Itls hoped that this organization lll promote mutual understandings, better school spirit, and more opnortvinlty for student participation in school activities.

The Band has shown great improvement due, in part, to two practices a week and also private Instruction for various members. The Brass section composed of trumpets, trombones, french, baritone, and bass horns, is one of the largest groups and their hard work has made Mr. Gerber justly proud ofthem. Saxophones are shown in a separate group. The Woodwinds are represented in both Orchestra and Band. Glenn Showalter’s new oboe added tone and quality to this section. Norma Schultz is the only senior in this group who has served five years in all Instrumental types of music. The Percussion section of Girls Band, Orchestra, and Concert Band has distinguished itself by taking pri¬ vate lessonsto Improvethelr playing ability materially. Some real drummers are in the offing. Vocally there are two active groups. The Mixed Chorus, composedof upperclassmen (in the main) also met twice a week this year. They sang at the Thanksgiving Program, made a recording for rebroadcast at WWST, par¬ ticipated in the County Vocal Musicale atDoylestown and at oiiT own annual Spring Musicale. The Girls ' Glee Club, composed of Sophomore and Freshman girls, has met regularly and assures us there will be no scarcity of vocal talent in the coming years.

He hit his old style all through the season showing up as a valiiable man both on defense and offense. Harold Hauenstein - right end: Doc” was a valuable player both on the offensive and defensive.

He held the sajiie positlonthe previous year. « Eugene Hazel - right half: Gene won the race for the right half spot and held it throughout the season except when he was injured.

It can ' t be said that he played an exceptional game in any one game on the schedule. He showed up well in all of them. ■s ' Donovan Griffith - fullback: Griff was a great help to the Bulldogs until he was sidelined by two trick kne©9. He was missed a, great deal by the team. « Curtis Sprunger - end: Curt was a very good defensive and offensive player.
