We, the graduating class of 1963, represent such a sea of faces. The “Faces of Dicruff represent individual expressions of dedication, friendship, achievement, loyalty, enthusiasm, and anticipation. Our students, faculty, and administration are representative of many religions, races, and creeds. We have learned to live and work with a harmony which will influence our outlook and learning in the future. These faces, all different, imbue us with a special pride to be graduating from the Louis E. Dieruff High School. Living and working here will enable us to better understand and serve our fellowman as we progress into a vast, new world of faces. 4 HENRY J. WEIDNER We, the graduating class of 1963, ded- icate this edition of our yearbook, the Ledannus, to the man whose counten- ance expresses friendship and under- standing. This is the face of one who has been a source of constant inspiration and direction throughout our schooling at Dicruff. Mr. Henry Weidner is devoting his life to the guidance of young people in the Allentown School System, and we are proud to have him as our principal. He has set a high standard for us which he exemplifies in his own life. We sin- cerely hope that our efforts will be com- mensurate to the faith which he has in- vested in us and that his countenance will serve as a guiding light to many more Dieruff students.

SENIORS The familiar faces of our classmates are por- traits of reflection, meditation, and anticipation. We reflect upon our past learning experiences and apply them to our present studies. We meditate upon our present learning and strive to improve our talents. We eagerly anticipate our future adventures in life and feel secure in the training we have received here, at Dieruff. The memories these faces inspire will endure after graduation. Our busy class officers—Eugene Bruchok, pres- ident; Michael Amici, vice-president; Adeline Volock, secretary; and Helene Faltz, treasurer —take time out with Mr. Klotz, class advisor, in the art patio. These people have led our class well during our last year at Dieruff. i- r • „ - n M 7—■ [Ym z V ill v iff '•or-.

Enthusiasm Soars at Pep Rally DHS cheerleaders lead a peppy cheer at the Dieruff- Allcn pep rally preceding the game. October 19, 1962, the afternoon of the traditional William Allcn-Dieruff football game, was an event to remember. Our peppy cheerleaders led us in several new cheers that raised the roof and displayed our school spirit. The players were presented by coach, Mr. Wescoe, and Mr. Weidner added his words of encouragement. Several canaries were also on the loose as our zany faculty cheerleaders demonstrated their skills. Kiska, our mascot, topped the event as she curiously inspected a giant canary which was later burned in effigy. Varsity football coach, Ernie Wescoe. and JV coach.

Joy of Christmas Applauded By All Dicruff’s annual Christmas Concert, presented De- cember 14, attracted an appreciative audience. The program, entitled “Joy of Christmas,” was presented in four segments representing both secular and religious themes. Members of the Girls’ Glee Club opened the scene as they gaily decorated the house, while caroling groups, Varsity Voices and the Brass Choir, sang and played familiar carols. A bedtime fantasy followed in which the Sugar Plum Fairies appeared sprinkling their Christmas joy everywhere. A pantomime of the first Christmas with musical background supplied by the choir proved an inspirational experience as did the finale of sacred music in the church. Members of various music, art, printing, stage, home economics, and dramatics groups worked hard to in- sure a successful performance. Their efforts and achievements were enjoyed by all.

Chaperons Mr. McGinlcy, Mr. German, and Mr. Klotz looked on as class members swam, dived, and frolicked in the pleasant blue water. Organized relay races satisfied those with a competitive spirit and gave due recognition to the “fish in the group. Senior, Chic Lang- nchs, performed a few of his point-winning dives as the highlight of the evenings activities. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed a revel of liquid fun. Mermaids try a water battle.

Dieruff Daze Dazzles DicrufTs Music Department produced the fourth annual Dieruff Daze of '63 featuring “A Half Century of American Music.” The performance took place in the auditorium on February 14 and in- cluded a cast of singers, band members, dancers, and comedy players. Highpoints in the program, which was divided into ten-year seg- ments, were: the barbershop quartet; When You Wore A Tulip, charmingly rendered in old-time bathing suits; Down on the Farm; Sugar Blues featuring a trumpet solo; St. James Infirmary, a rhythm dance from the ’20’s; Fifty Miles in Twenty Days, a take-off on the USO shows of the ’40’s; a pantomime featuring the First Family; and the present dance craze, The Twist. The fast-moving performance included such all-time favorites as Let Me Call You Sweetheart, Stardust, Over the Rainbow, and People Will Say We’re In Love. The audience showed their whole- hearted approval from the overture, 76 Trombones, to the cast finale, Climb Every Mountain. The Dieruff Dukes add color to the presenta- tion with the popular overture, 76 Trombones. The 20's brought with them several new dance crazes. Here, our own Varsity Draggers step out in style. Backstage preparations insure a good performance as these members of the Varsity Voices make last-minute costume adjustments. Scientific Achievement Gains Recognition Shirley Beers is pictured with her science fair project on DNA—desoxyribonucleic acid— which is responsible for transfers of charac- teristics in human beings. Edward Fischcl ingeniously set about the task of converting the components of two radio sets into an intercom system. This interesting in- novation is in conjunction with his work in physics. Students and teachers alike were proud of the representation and support given to Dieruff’s fourth annual Science Fair. Projects from various scientific categories were on display in the school lobby from seven until nine o’clock on March 4, 5, and 6. On display were projects representing the fields of electronics, chemistry, biology, botany, astronomy, physics, mathematics, and earth science. Judges selected thirty projects to be entered in the seventeenth annual Lehigh Valley Science Fair at Muhlenberg Col- lege in April. TV to oscilloscope in one easy lesson—this is the principle David George is demonstrating in his project which measures light and sound waves on a visible screen. Stethoscopes used by doctors arc operated by a vacuum device which enables amplification of sound. John Stevens experi- mented with an electronic stethoscope operating under a piezoelectric effect.

Dieruff was privileged for the fourth consecutive year to be a host school for two delegates from the Herald Tribune Forum. Our guests for a three-week visit during January and February were Miss Annamarie Beidl of Austria and Mr. Amos Sawyerr of Liberia. Dieruff students enjoyed their stay and hope that they will carry back to their countries the warm friendships and ideas they have exchanged here. The members of the Class of 1963 were especially proud to be able to present a class gift at the beginning of their senior year. The purchase and presentation of a scoreboard for the natatorium enabled many seniors to benefit from a class gift before graduation. The Dieruff National Honor Society is establishing an important Dieruff tradition by inviting past gradu- ates back to talk to college preparatory seniors. This year’s Homecoming was held December 20 at which time Francis Shumbata lead a panel discussion on a preview of college life. Class President Gene Bruchok points with pride to the scoreboard gift while Mr. Law- rence Klotz and Mr. Henry Weidner look on. Punch and cookies were served during the so- cial hour which followed the Homecoming Panel Discussion. Serving punch are Pam Hes- singer. JoAnn Kern, and Linda Kocay. 82 Special Faces Recall Memorable Events Among the many familiar and warmly remem- bered faces at Dieruff are Mr. and Mrs. Louis E. Dieruff. Their attendance at many school func- tions and sports events over the years is heralded with a special respect for two people who have unselfishly given of their time and service to our educational system. Mr. Dieruff has devoted his life to children in the Allentown Public Schools and we are proud to be called the Louis E. Dieruff High School. Mr. Mrs. Louis E. Dieruff The Ledannus Staff is grateful to all the seniors and teachers for their fine cooperation in this year’s patron drive. Our patrons, both businesses and personal patrons, make the publishing of this book possible, and several of our seniors have done an outstanding job. Tops in the business patron drive were Sharon Kuhns and Russ Bciscl. These energetic young people phoned and made personal visits to vari- ous businessmen in the area. Real go-getters. Roland Schaffer and Ann Wasscr. were top seniors in our February Personal Patron Drive. Their efforts put our campaign over the top and made it possible for each senior to receive a graduation supplement to this yearbook. 83 ORGANIZATIONS Loyalty, interest, and enthusiasm glow on these faces. The special loyalty necessary to give of one's time; the sparkling interest in something new: and the enthusiasm to see a project through to a successful completion with friends and sponsors arc expressed by the satisfaction on these happy faces. Here, in our school clubs, we gain new and better relationships with the faces around us. A select group, the Varsity Voices, rehearse for a concert in their choir gowns. Their musical interests are awakened early as they rehearse before school two mornings a week. Dieruff Students Merit Scholastic Achievement Seated: Jean Pundiak, Shirley Beers. Standing: William Landis. Francis Shumbata. The National Honor Society was cre- ated to promote scholarship enthusiasm, create a desire to render service, develop worthy school leaders, and promote the building of character. Its three basic ideals—leadership, citizenship, and out- standing scholastic achievement—were exemplified by its members, who were selected during their junior year. In order to carry forth its theme of scholastic excellence, the club sponsored a College Conference, at which time re- turning Dieruff students briefed present college hopefuls on what their new expe- riences would bring. It is hoped that these hints and comments from familiar friends will aid future college candidates as they seek success after graduation.

Varsity Voices was the answer. This is a smaller, more advanced group than the choir and consists of members who can sight-read, keep their pitch, and enjoy singing. The group performed at all school musical programs and represented DierufT at outside concerts. They worked as a group in the Variety Show and gave a special concert in February for the Allentown Music Club. These are students to whom music is an essential part of school life. 98 “Take a deep breath and stay on pitch, girls.” These are the words that ring in the ears of the girls who are members of the Girls’ Glee Club. This club met during school hours, and the purpose of the group was to practice selections for the Christmas and Spring Con- certs. These girls sing three-and four-part music and learn about techniques for added expression and color that bring life to every performance. They also receive basic training in the use of the voice to produce good pitch, tone, and resonance. The Girls’ Glee Club lent not only their fine vocal ability to these concerts but also a certain touch of beauty that can be given only by a group of female vocalists.

In the afternoon, they held jobs in local department stores and other business establishments. As these students learned, we benefited by the excellent operation of Dieruff's store. There is no doubt that the students under this program are well prepared for their future occupations. Lorraine Stimmel and Joanne Illigasch help Barbara Kurtz decide upon the size of her class ring in our school store. This practical application of business principles prepares Dis- tributive Education students to enter the busi- ness world after graduation.

Dieruffs small, but active, Photography Club has been assigned the important task of recording the school year in pictures. They take pictures for both of our school publications, the Ledannus and the Dieruff Leader. Under the supervision of Mr. Ernest Papp, the club members learned to develop prints, made enlargements, and dried their finished photo- graphs. These members gave much of their time to this educational and enjoyable hobby. D. Shellhamcr. K. Deppen. D. Engle. G. Smith, J. Tomsic. L. Jekcls. Seated: S. Moyer. J. Bloch. A. Wasser, J. Moore, S.

The tasks of a library aide vary from shelv- ing books and marking bookjackets, to filing cards. These girls worked in the library during any free period and before and after school. Each girl who worked a total of fifty-two hours received an award for her services. The girls worked hard to keep our library in efficient running order and greatly facilitated the handling of books and magazines. Their services helped Mrs. Maleskcy to improve library facilities for all DierufT students. Elizabeth Chartron and Sally White- head put plastic covers on new mag- azines prior to putting them on the racks for student use. Maria Bellucci and Lois Rommel work at one of the never-ending jobs in a library—shelving books. 105 Anna Dolgos, Jean Treichler, Sharon Parry.

Versatile Artists Learn and Appreciate The Art Service Club, under the supervision of Mr. Ronald Glass, met after school to work on art projects which were needed for school affairs. They prepared and painted scenery, provided in- formative posters for various events, and took care of the promotion and advertising of all school functions. During the year, the group learned various techniques in commercial art through practical application in posters for the gym show and county band. The experience they gained will aid their future efforts in the field of commercial art. The main objective of the Art Appreciation Club, under the direction of Mr. Floyd Keim, is to give its members an understanding of the mas- terpieces which have been created and which are available to us today. In order to accomplish this goal, the group viewed local art exhibits, and visited nearby sil- versmiths and stained-glass establishments. These trips enabled them to view and study art of differ- ent media as well as examples and reproductions of famous works. The group shares an enthusiasm in appreci- ation, and their trips take them wherever original art exhibitions are open for their benefit and study. Karol Kosik, Barbara Vaccaro, Stephania Sawka. Sharon Parry, Paula Faust, Tom Anderson, and Jean Treichler examine a study in oils as part of their art appreciation experience. Dieruff Hams Explore Communications Sealed: P. DalPezzo, B.

Aqua-Dierettes Learn Water Skills Another group of early risers, the Aqua-Dierettes met Tuesday mornings at 7:30. Under the direction of Mr. Dennis McGinley, the girls learned and practiced various aquatic skills such as surface diving, dauphins, somersaults, and ballet legs. They also sought pro- ficiency in various advanced swimming strokes. Members of this club performed before swimming meets, at the State Gym Convention, and also took part in the Gym Show as a group number. Bi-annually these girls plan and perform in a public aquacade.

Football Opens Sports Season DicrufF High School completed its 1962 football season by compiling a record of two victories, seven defeats, and one tic—the first tie in DHS varsity football history. Playing a very rugged schedule, the Huskies were scverly hampered by a rash of injuries to some of their key lettermen. After dropping their first six con- tests, the team broke the ice by defeating the Bethlehem Hurricanes 14-0. The Allen game was a thriller, but 12,000 spectators saw the Huskies go down to defeat in the last three minutes of play. The surprise of the season was seeing that the sophomores and other inexperi- enced players were able to fill in for the injured lettermen.

That was our basket- ball team as they waltzed through the second half of the East Penn League with a seven win-no loss record, after being stepped on in the first round, no wins and seven defeats. The Huskies were the first team to complete this feat since the league was organized in 1934. In the second-half game with Hazleton, Bob Riedy broke the league mark and his own school and court mark with a 43-point output. As the Huskies rode to the ball, they climaxed their trip by beating Tamaqua, 77-53, to clinch the EPL sec- ond-half banner. Twelve o’clock came early, however, for our team as they lost to Bethlehem, 81-59, in the EPL title playoff.

To them, grateful appreciation and thanks arc never quite enough to express our gratitude for their fine work. Yet, the Ledannus staff pays special tribute to these people. Mr. Ernest Papp and the dedicated members of his Photography Club for their quality and quantity of pictures and candid shots which appear in this book. Mr. Kenneth Clauser for his excellent color photographs and fine black and white pictures. The Call-Chronicle for providing pictures used in the sports section. The local photographers for their assistance in meeting photography schedules with “senior glossies.” Mr. Ronald Glass for his supervision and advice to the art staff and its editor. The seniors, faculty members, and administration and clerical staff for their interest and cooperation in this endeavor.
