They are responsible for the choosing of the teachers who are important figures in giving the children of today an education. Buying material and keeping the school in repair are a few of their worries. Everyone who votes has the privilege to choose these men. It is the duty of the citizens to choose honest and wise men to control the education of today's youth. The members are elected for a term of six years. The Board of Education is composed of men who represent the borough and township, five members from the borough and live members from the township. The two groups meet together. Many confusing problems arise before them and it takes broadminded men like these to reach a suitable decision. These men are doing a fine job, as the members of previous years have done. This is indicated by the modern textbooks, enlarged library, well-equipped labor- atory and the modern gymnasium with clean locker rooms and showers. We, the students of the school and also the citizens of this locality should be very thankful for the fine work accomplished by our Board of Education. 8 The 1949 Memoscope x XX X S S S , 77 X 5' x Q1 L x. w- Fi- gl tr x ,A .4 ' ' X I J Hip XJ , 5 5 ' N Ny lE3i:tl'Ns N In '-aswaiigiisses 55 afiiia WS. rail: 'bfi -'J SENIORS EARL Oh H eck Earl is one of Miss Tate's French students. It was said that he just loves his French. We wonder what is the reason? PAT Judas Paste Patsy is one of our tall senior girls with that lovable touch that puts you out of this world. That's why so many senior boys walk around in a daze. She has a loving affection for everyone. Patsy is often seen in a Pontiac. We hear it is from Thomas- ville. How are We doing Patsy, with the Pontiac? BOBBIE Well Whatlaya Know Loris is our muscle girl of the Senior class. She is always full of laughter and very friendly. She is often seen tearing through Dover in a Ford, or should we say flying low? BAUGHIE Sure thing Glenn is a neat and handsome boy, He is quick at making friends and easy to get along with. His good marks are well known by his classmates. Glenn can be found wherever there is a crowd. 10 EARL ANDERSON Academic V Class play 4, French Club 3, 4. After School-Obtain position.

Today we were beginning our high school career. When our teachers counted us, we, the class of '51, had a total of 57 members. We made a fine looking class with such a large number, but soon 10 of our class- mates left us. We were sorry to lose Gladys Berkheimer, George Raffensberger, Dora Spangler, Joyce Nesbit, Phyllis March, Dean Stambaugh, Malcolm Lehr, Kermit Messinger, Leonard Landis, and Curvin Crowl. We had one great trag- edy in our freshman year-Phyllis VVert died in an automobile accident. We now had 46 members. Class meeting time will long be remembered. At our first session we elected the following officers: Wayne Gross as president, James Dawes as vice-president, Doris Spangler as secretary, Frederick Miller as treasurer, and Jeanne Weaver as historian. Mr. Richard E. Walters was elected class advisor. We selected the white rose as our class Howerg the colors, navy blue and white, and this Sapene Aude as our class motto. We, as Freshmen, had charge of the school Christmas party, which was held in the gym on December 24. Santa presented each student with a gift. On Class Night all freshmen displayed their school colors of navy blue and white. So we ended our first year of Dover High School.

SCHOOL PLAY Here Comes Charlief' a three-act farce by Jay Tobias, was the title of the school play, which was given October 23, in the high school auditorium. The play was presented under the direction of Mrs. Mabel Laird. Larry Elliott, young broker, thinking he is becoming guardian of a small boy, is jolted to find he has become guardian of a girl, 17 and pretty. Charlotte is called Charlie, hence the error. Why the jolt? Well, Larry is engaged to the imperious Vivian Smythe-Kersey and is further hen-ridden by a snobbish aunt. To have another female in the house delights him not. Neither does it delight Vivian nor the aunt. Charlie arrives from Arkansas accompanied by Uncle Aleck Twiggs, like herself a true product of the Ozarks. She starts to call Larry Papa and to display artless. but warm, affection. Larry likes the attitude, but it fails to smooth Charlie's way with the women. The latter assume active enmity and plan to oust the 'fhillbilliesf' Farcical situations develop from the social blunders of the new arrivals, especially when Aunt Fanny Farnham, determined to make Uncle Aleck earn his board and keep, tries to turn him into a society butler. Conspiracies against the Ozarkians recoil, but larry's position is made so uncomfortable that, to save him punishment, the pair depart, only to return after some months, oh, so differ- ent. Charlie is barely recognizable in her successor, the glorious Charlotte, who Hutters all masculine hearts. Uncle Aleck, too, has undergone an amazing change. A play of plot in which farce-comedy is tempered by heart interest and touches of pathos. 26 The 1949 Memosrope w fwanm - f - Standing-Arleiie Paules, Glenn Ziegler, Flurene Garrett, Phyllis Smith, Raymond Miller, Earl Anderson, Raymond Wilt, Miss Tate, Patsy Baker, and Glenn Baughman.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY A three-act comedy, Hobgoblin House, was presented by the Senior class as their annual play. As the play moves along, Miss Priscilla Carter is peeved becaus-e her two nieces have fallen in love with two silly young nincompoopsf' She purchases the grim old Hobgob House in the foothills of the Ozarks and here in the seclusion of the mountains she plans a safe retreat where the girls shall not see their lovers for at least six months on penalty of being disinherited, and what a mess they get into-ghosts and ghostly doings everywhere. just as luck would have it they arrive on the very night that old Bluebeard Bronson, who once committed a murder in the house, is supposed to re-visit the scene of his crimes, and does he come? Well, at any rate there are some strange happenings on this night of nights. When things are at their height, the boys arrive, just in time to rescue the family from a desperate band of crooks. Not till then does Miss Priscilla relent.

To make matters worse, Pappy's son, Luke, and Ma Peppin's daughter, Emmy, are in love with each other. The two old feudists have been planning second matrimonial ventures, and each has secretly engaged Wash Jeddo, the half-witted village scribe, to write to a matrimonial bureau for a mate. Wash has enclosed Ifmmyys picture in Ma's letter and Luke's in Pappy's signing their respective names instead of Mays and Pappy's. Meanwhile, the mountain is all agog over the homecoming of the Triffet girls, radiois newest hillbilly sensation, who bring their manager, Sol Silverstein, with them in quest of more hillbilly entertainers. When Sol attempts to sign Ma on the dotted line, she mistakes him for an answer to her letter and jumps at the chance. Complications set in as one of the Triffet sisters tries to vamp Luke and a pair of wildcats- in the shape of a wild Irish rose and a temperamental Italian lad arrive from the Matrimonial bureau to claim their mates. Luke and Emmy are dumbfounded as Hog Mountain is transformed into an active volcano of riotous courtship. In the midst of the turmoil, Pappy comes to settle his score with Ma and is captured by the Wild Irish Rose in her wildest moment. VV ith Pappy and Luke securely tied to a settee, Ma sends for the preacher man, whereupon disclosures follow and the hullaboo subsides. How the mates are properly selected is a triumph of hillbilly dexterity, and Sol signs up enough hill- billy warblers to start a new revolution on the air. 28 The 1940 ,lf! ll'ZOSFUf7C Front row-Phyllis Smith, Robert Staulfer, Helen Limbert, Glenn Snelbecker, Doris Marx, Kenneth Lehr, Patsy Baker, Clifford Staub, Flurene Garrett, Kervin Sipe, and Dawn Small.

Mr. Gingerich acted as director for three years, and in 1935 Mr. Arthur Warfield took over for six years. In 1941 Mrs. Jean Hatfield maintained the position for two years. Miss Ethel Trimmer succeeded Mrs. Hatlield in 1943. Miss Carrie Shellenberger took over in 1946. Miss Mildred Neff is now director of the band. The present band consists of 20 students. Trombones, baritones, cornets, clari- nets, saxophones, drums, piccolo, and piano make up the different sections of the band. The band plays for school activities such as assembly programs, play pres- entations, and for the graduation exercises. During the past two years the type of instruments used has caused the music played to be changed from orchestra to band music. The band now plays at the annual soccer games at Dover. Any high school or grade student who is interested in music may become a member of the band when he or she can read music well enough to play the music which they use. Individual band members participate in the County Music Festi- val orchestra. When it was decided to change from an orchestra to a band, a bass drum was purchased. The band rehearses every Wednesday during the fifth period.

'GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Dover High girls' basketball team was again a member in 'the York County scholastic basketball league. This year Miss Helen V. Tate, Dover coach, was elected president of the league. Due to circumstances beyond the control of some schools, the league membership is very small this year. North York, West York, and Dover make up the league. In order to create more interest, two leagues have been formed. Class A, which is made up of girls who should be full fledged varsity players and any other senior 3' Class B is composed of varsity members from all classes except the Senior class. In this way all girls- will get playing experience in competition. These girls played on the Class A team: L. Baublitz, R. Davis, L. Frey, Gross, D. Small, Smith, P. Smith, and L. Stover.

SOCCER The Dover High soccer team has always been very outstanding in the York County Scholastic Soccer League. This season the team was not as successful as in the past, due to the fact that all of the varsity players of last year had graduated. Mr. Lester R. Gross had a big job arranging the players to fill the positions vacated by the graduating seniors. There was never a definite varsity as many substitutions were made throughout the games. This year the soccer team played the following schools: North York, Manchester, Dillsburg, Codorus, Spring Grove, Lancaster City High, and St. Francis Prep. The total results of this year's squad was: Won 4, lost 6, and tied 3.

Second row--Mr. Bitting, Robert Laird, Charles Miller, Robert Little, Arthur Krone, Wayne Leckrone, Robert Spahr, Paul Berkheimer, and Billy Brunk. BASEBALL Baseball, one of the nation's most popular games, is also very popular at Dover High School. Each season a large number of eager boys answer the call to begin training. The team is chosen from the boys who show the most talent and interest in the game. There are nine positions to be filled. To earn one of these positions one must obey training rules, keep in physical condition, and always play his very best. Pitchers and catchers get the first work-outs because the coach, Mr. Ray Bitting, points out that it takes longer to get pitchers and catchers into shape. During the past seasons Dover High has offered league competition to the following teams: North York, West York, Manchester, and Red Lion. Whether winning or losing, the baseball team is supported by students and local baseball-loving fans. With an experienced team for this spring, Dover looks forward to a winning team. The 1949 Memoscope 41 SENIOR AND JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL Senior High Basketball The Senior High basketball team during the season of 1948-49 was a mem- ber of the Northern Division of York County. The team was up against oppo- sition from schools of larger enrollment. Despite this fact, Dover has played a good clean game and was always in there to win. Wlietlier losing or winning, the boys showed very fine spirit. The most of the team was made up of sophomores, who played as Junior high varsity last year, with a few from the other classes. This season many fine players reported for practice. This made playing interest- ing, because everyone had to work for a position on the squad. The support of the spectators and the cheerleaders kept up the spirit of the team and made it so much easier to get into the spirit of the game and really play. During the 1948-49 season Dover faced the following teams: West York, Red Lion, York Catholic, Spring Grove, Wriglitsville, North York and Manchester. A few exhibition games were played. Junior High Basketball This is the fifth year of junior High basketball. The team consists of boys from the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. This sport is becoming very popular at Dover High. The sole purpose is to give younger boys a chance to learn the game and to gain experience for the Senior High team. Although previous teams were not very successful, many boys report for practice. Lack of experience is the main handicap to the Junior High team. This team, coached by Mr. Lester R. Gross, has proved its value to Dover High by supplying experienced players for the Senior High team. This year new players have been introduced. All of last year's team has moved on, with the exception of Donald Gross. League games were played with North York, West York, Spring Grove, Red Lion, Dallastown, Mt. Rose, Mt. VVolf and Wriglitsville. Each team is played twice. Everyone is looking for many prosperous seasons in the future. 42 The 1949 Memoscope SENIOR HIGH BASKETBALL Front row-Charles Harbaugh, Raymond Wilt, John Carroll, Arthur Krone, Charles Miller James Dawes, Robert Spahr, Robert Little.

The height and weight of each student will be taken at stated times. The school nurse will go to the various homes in the district when a student is ill to see if the disease is contagious. Mrs. Gross graduated from Dover High School and received her training at the York Hospital School of nursing. ALUMNI In order to keep close relationship with the Alma Mater, an Alumni Association of Dover Borough and Dover Township Joint High School was organized in 1936. An annual banquet is held, usually in November. Dances and card games are held after the banquet. The ofhcers for the year are chosen at the banquet. 4.4. The 1949 Memoscopc Thr 1949 JYl'71IOSCOf7F MEMORIES HISTORY OF CLASS OF '49 CHAPTER I On September 6, 1945, we, the class of '49 entered the halls of Dover High to begin a merry ride over the big and stormy waves to come before us. These waves seemed rough, but some- how, we believed that We could ride them as the students before us had. There were sixty-six of us, and we were divided into two rooms, 6 and 10, under the supervision of Mr. Stanley Nusselman and Mr. Richard Walters. The class oflicers were elected at our first class meeting. They were as follows: President, Kenneth Lehrg Vice-President, Glenn Baughmang Secretary, Dudley Stouchg Treasurer, Phyllis Smith, Historian for four years, Evelyn Edgar. Mrs. Virginia Kunkle was chosen as our class advisor. The red rose was selected as the class Hower and navy blue and white as the class colors. Out of the harbor, into the deep was chosen as the class motto. A Hallowe'en party, held at Brookside Park. was our hrst activity of the year. As Freshmen, it was our duty to sponsor the Christmas party for the school. Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus were there and presented everyone with a gift. During our freshmen year we welcomed, John Coyle, Bessie Schaffner, and Lois Swope into our class. We lost two members from the class, Allen Dietz and Faye Kauffman. Our class now had sixty-seven members. On the last day of school, we motored to Hershey Park. We were accompanied by Miss Helen Tate, Mrs. Gloria Kahn, and Miss Mayme McDowell. One-fourth of our stormy and rough journey was over. CHAPTER H After three months vacation, we returned to continue our long but happy journey. Fifty- seven of us returned to take the trip. We were proud Sophomores now and at our hrst class meeting of the year, we held the election of class officers. These were: President, Glenn Baugh- man, Vice-President, Patsy Baker, Secretary, Loris Baublitzg Treasurer, Glenn Snelbecker. Mrs. Virginia Kunkle resigned, so the class elected Miss Helen Tate as class advisor. As Sophomores it was our turn to have the school Hallow'en party. The auitorium was beautifully decorated with autumn colors. Everyone had a wonderful time and all our tummies were plenty full of good pumpkin pie and cider. We were glad to have Dean Gross and David Quickel enter into our class. We were sorry to say good-bye to John Coyle, Patricia Gentzler, Lolita Hall, Alyce Lamparter, Charles Leber, Wayne Leckrone, Brenton Miller, Paul Myers, Jr., Bessie Schaffner, Marlyn Stump, Lois Swope, and Wallace Wert. A skating party held at Playland was the most important event of the year. The class also sponsored the movie Claudia.l' During our Sophomore year, Herman Beck, Claire Bren- neman, Barbara Grim, Richard Feeser, Glenn Reisinger, Paul Shorb, and Quinton Small left our class. Again on the last day we visited the State buildings at Harrisburg and then journeyed to Hershey Park with our class advisor, Miss Helen Tate. CHAPTER III With a short and peaceful summer, the third chapter of our book was opened for another year of studying and learning. We were advancing on our rough but very encouraging journey. Although we lost some members on the way, we gained quite a few to replace them. We were really important now, for we were Juniors. Gosh, next to the Seniors. We realized now that we were coming close to the end of our exciting voyage. At our hrst class meeting we elected: President, Glenn Baughmang Vice-President, Glenn Snelbeckerg Secretary, Loris Baublitzg Treasurer, Phyllis Smith as our officers. Of course Miss Tate remained our class advisor. As Juniors it was our duty to publish the 1948 Mewtoscope. Patsy Baker headed the Year- book with her staff as follows: Glenn Baughman, Mary Ida Gerber, Doris Marx, Mary Jane Spahr, Helen Limbert, Dawn Small, Flurene Garrett, Lottie Stover, Phyllis Smith, Kenneth Lehr, Jeanne Gross, George Airing, Paul Berkheimer, Louise Frey, Dudley Stouch, Raymond Vxfilt, Juan Sutphin, and John Spangler.

During the year the following left us: Nancy Cookson, Evelyn Edgar, Phyllis 4.6 The 1949 Memoscope HISTORY OF CLASS OF 949 C Continued J Hamme, Ruth Kauffman, Winifred Moody, James Nesbit, Wilbur Plowman, Delvin Rodgers, Donald Smith and Juan Sutphin. Due to the fact that several members left our class, we had to elect a new Secretary and Historian. Those elected were Patsy Baker as Secretary and Jeanne Gross as Historian. The class selected Mama's Baby Boy as the Junior play and it was presented in December. Glenn Baughman portrayed the title as Mama's Baby Boy and Faye Hess as Daddy's.Baby Girl. Flurene Garrett and Kenneth Lehr also co-starred as leads in the play. Everyone in the class helped to make the play a success. This year the Junior History class took a trip to Gettysburg. There we visited the Gettys- burg Battlefield and the Gettysburg College buildings and Campus. Rocky Springs Park was the scene of the last day's journey of our Junior year. Thus after graduation exercises we became Seniors. CHAPTER IV With a dignified appearance, heads held high and a gleeful grin, we were at last Seniors. Yes, some of us have braved the wavy storms that have circulated through the halls of dear old Dover High, to finally become members of the Senior class. Now all we had to do was to ride the waves with high marks in order to survive. However, some of us were to have mighty deep water to tread in order to keep our heads above the flood of the teachers exams. So, with all these things to look forward to, we held our first class meeting of the year and elected the following officers: President, Billy Brunk, Vice-President, Dudley Stouchg Secretary, Patsy Baker, Treasurer, Glenn Snelbeckerg Historian, Jeanne Gross, Class Advisor, Miss Helen Tate. Two new teachers were added to the faculty this year. They were Miss Mildred Neff, music supervisor, replacing Miss Carrie Shellenberger, and Mrs. Mildred Houck, Home Economics teacher, who replaced Mrs. Gloria Kahn. We gladly welcomed into our class Rachel Davis who came to us from East Berlin. We said goodby to: George Airing, Rita Davis, Stephen Deckman, Dean Gross, Preston Myers, Jr., and John Spangler. This year the Senior play entitled 'fHobgoblin House a mystery, was presented. The spookiness and thrills of this play will long be remembered. The characters, Darius Krupp, played by Glenn Baughman and Bluebeard, enacted by Raymond Wilt are unforgettable characters who haunt Hobgoblin House. We'll never forget the eerie appearance of Patsy Baker as she appeared in the play as the missing heiress. And of course, Glenn Snelbecker, the colored gardener and Jeanne Gross, the colored cook, saw hants all over the place. The English 'Ousekeeper, Louise Frey, certainly was scairt speechless more than once and Jean Eisenhart as Marian and Lottie Stover as Jill, had trouble getting their inheritance, so that they could marry Billy Brunk as Frank Harlow and Kenneth Lehr as Jack Loring. Of course, Aunt Priscilla played by Faye Hess, had to consent to their marriage when the boys are given a large sum of money. After they captured a missing heiress the kidnappers Bill Wilkins, played by Earl Anderson and Bluebeard Bronson, played by Raymond Wilt, were properly cared for by the law. Next, our commencement announcements and invitations were chosen, and then the Seniors paid a visit to the friendly photographer in order to have their pictures taken for the yearbook. A skating party, initiation of the freshmen, planning our graduation exercises kept the class in a merry whirl. Of course, they came out of it long enough to go to New York City for an exciting week-end. . Athletes this year were Phyllis Smith, Louise Frey, Dawn Small, Jean Eisenhart, Jacquelin Smith, Patsy Baker, Loris Baublitz, Jeanne Gross, Kenneth Lehr, Billy Brunk, Raymond Wilt, Paul Berkheimer, Glenn Snelbecker, Raymond Miller, and that faithful athletic manager, Glenn Baughman. And so, we have completed a most wonderful journey at Dover High, which was a very happy and exciting one, filled with both work and play. Here we have spent the best four years of our lives, jumping over the stormy waves, even the highest ones could be jumped with some efiort and encouragement. With all the wonderful and exciting times to look back at and remember, we, the class of '49 bid farewell to the four short years at Dover High. The 1949 Memoscope 47 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY As the sands of time slowly sift through the time honored hour-glass, I see many things which have happened to my classmates since graduation. I was waiting at the railroad depot one Hne day when whom should I see engineering a supersonic locomotive but Billy Brunk. I knew Billy would take a job where he could use a whistle for the girls and get away with it. After my trainride, I hailed a taxi. Upon seeing how I was being whizzed along, barely missing traffic, I looked more closely at the driver, and sure enough, it was Dover's own Speed King, Raymond Miller, himself. I told him to take me to the Stitch-em-up, Fix-em-up Horse- pital, a hospital to you, where, I had been told I would see a few of my former gang. I walked in and saw a tall, blonde haired nurse, holding the hand of a young man who had heart palpita- tions and as far as I could see, the nurse was causing more palpitations. She looked up and I saw it was Flurene Garrett, and the fellow was none other than her old heart-throb, Clair Nesbit. Flurene offered to show me around the hospital. We no sooner turned the first corner, when whom should I see but Mary Ida Gerber wheeling a new-born baby, and singing sadly, Baby Don't Be Mad At Me. Since our next stop was on the highest floor of the building, we used the elevator. To my surprise, the operator was Glenn Baughman. We always knew Glenn would climb to the top some day. We walked into a private room, and there was Fairy Crone, thin as ever. I learned that she was trying to boost her fifty pounds up to sixty pounds with those new super-duper vitamin pills. In the next room, Ralph Crone was dieting on concentrated food tablets. My stomach's as light as a feather, groaned Ralph. After leaving the hospital, I thought I'd go to the auto races, I had read of a girl racing driver, and this being more or less unusual, I decided I would like to see her. While waiting for the race to begin, I happened to see Kenneth Lehr who had traded his Crosley car for a racer. Kenneth told me that his rival for top honors in the race was none other than our school chum, Loris Baublitz. Seems like Loris was still throwing dust in Ken's face. At the exit doors of the race track, who should spy me, but the well-known Shylock, Earl Anderson, who was head detective for the city. And whom do you think was with him? His dear, charming wife, Louise Frey. Of course, I gladly accepted their invitation to visit some interesting places with them, Our first stop that evening, was a very ritzy fashion show. As I watched the lovely girls modeling the beautiful clothes, I especially took notice to a tall brunette who was wearing a 310,000 mink coat. When she gave me a wink, I realized it was Patsy Baker. And, yes, there in a glamorous evening gown was Jean Eisenhart, who always was so attractive in gowns in school plays. After the fashion show, we went to the Grand opera. As the orchestra finished its number, who should take the bow, but that famous orchestra leader Glenn Ziegler. At the far end of the orchestra pit, was Glenn Snelbecker, blowing hard on a bass horn. As the singers appeared on the stage in their respective roles, I recognized Phyllis Smith when she sang, Can't Help Loving That Man Of Mine. So ended a most enjoyable evening. Since my stay in the Big City was at an end, I bid my friends good-bye, and boarded a plane for home. As the pilot and co-pilot walked up the aisle to the cock-pit, I nearly fainted, for it was William Jacobs and Sterling Crone. Heavens, maybe parts from William's old Ford, and Sterling's motor bike might be in the motor of the plane. I was about to leave the plane, when it zoomed into the air, and I had no alternative. Believe it or not, the boys could really handle the plane, an improvement over the way they used to drive autos etc. around Dover High, and I left safe and sound, except that I was a nervous wreck from worry. As I started toward a diner, I met Rachel Davis who was dressed 48 The 1949 Mcmosfope SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY C Continued Q in a waitress uniform. She told me that she and her husband, Carl Livingston operated that diner and that many old classmates patronized the place. As we entered the door, we heard a funny giggle, we looked in the direction from which it came, and saw Iacquelin Smith, Hilda Drawbaugh and Ruth Wentz at their favorite pastime, laughing and giggling while sipping sodas. When I reached my home, I found a long over-due electric bill. The next day, I went into the electric company to settle my account. As I walked over to the desk, I saw Lottie Stover. Lottie told me that Dudley Stouch, who had been very, very ambitious in school, was manager of the hrm. I could hardly imagine that much ambition. As we were talking a very attractive and well-dressed woman came in the door. It was Barbara Weaver. Barbara had always been one of the best-dressed girls in the class, and still was-after all she had the multi-multi- millionaire Paul Berkheimer for a husband. Paul always was the economist for the class. After paying my bill, I stopped into a meat market, and lo and behold there in a corner was Mary Jane Spahr, stufhng ground meat into hot dog skins. Never thought I'd see Mary Jane doing that. That night as I was listening to the radio, I heard the candidate of the Know-Nothing Party for the Presidency address the public. As Raymond Wilt's voice came over the air, I heard him say, Ladies and Gentlemen . . . I know nothing to say. Raymond must have forgotten to study his speech, just like in our English classes. After the broadcast, I settled down in an easy chair, and began to read a magazine article. The particular article that caught my eye was written by two famous music teachers. As I read their names, I couldn't help but be surprised for they were Arlene Paules and Dawn Small, the songbirds of our class. My reading was interrupted by an insistent knocking on the door. It was Faye Hess and Jeanne Gross who asked me to go roller skating with them. Jeanne told me she was a sales- girl at the Ritzi Dress Shoppe and Faye was a buyer for the same shop. I was skating along when I noticed someone grasp a handrail and slide to a stop. Delores Fetrow still hadn't learned to skate. I guess some people never learn. The next day was bright and sunny, ideal for a game of golf. So I drove out to the Swell-View Golf Club. Richard Latchaw had taken over the once-rundown buildings and grounds and had remodeled everything. Since this was my lirst visit to his new club, he insisted that I be his guest. Richard still hadn't changed. He'd give the shirt off his back if someone would ask for it. I left the golf club and headed for York in my car. As I was hungry, I stopped at a large restaurant where expensive food was served. Was I ever surprised when I saw the head waiter was Donald Zeigler. Since the menu was written in French, Donald read it to me and told me which were the most delectable dishes. I guess Donald knew what he was doing when he studied French in school. My appetite satisfied, I left the restaurant and began window shopping, when I felt some- one tap me on the shoulder. There stood Helen Limbert holding an enormous brief ease on which was printed in big bold letters, Use Dr. Corpses super cure-all medicine. Helen said she liked her job of a door-to-door salesgirl since traveling had always been her ambition. even in school. As for me I had an excellent job as a private secretary and I also had a boss whose lap was very, very comfortable-at least our two youngsters thought so. Doius MARX.

CLASS Morro Om' of the harbor, into the deep CLASS FLOWER The Red Rose CLASS CoLoR Navy blue and white The 1949 M emoscope BABY FAC ES The 1949 Memoscope 51 SENIOR CLASS WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the members of the graduating class of nineteen hundred and forty-nine, from the Dover Borough and Dover Township Joint High School leave to you, our heirs, our last will and testament. We find it necessary to do this so that you, our underclassmen, do not fall into the same pits as we did. To our loyal faculty we bequeath many headache tablets, smelling salts and noisy remem- brances. To the Junior class we pass on our chewed pencil erasers and acid stained aprons for Chemistry class. To the Sophomores we will our silverware collection from the Home Economics Department and our good manners in the lunch room. To the Freshmen we give all of our Biology information that we forgot two years ago Cnamely our manualsb. To the incoming Freshmen we pass on our maps and rule books so that they get to their classes on time instead of the office. Our individual bequeaths are as follows: Earl Anderson proudly wills his 1929 Reo to Robert Snelbaker who thinks Fords don't go fast enough. CWe hope this will serve the pur- pose, Bobj. Delores Linebaugh is fortunate in receiving Patsy Baker's friendship with boys who drive Pontiacs. fTootie seems to be achieving much intelligence in this field alreadyj To Charles Haas goes Glen Baughman's curly hair and ability to drive a maroon Plymouth hlled with girls. Ralph Crone is very thoughtful in willing part of his stomach to James Dawes, so he doesn't have to wear suspenders to keep his pants up. fSaves money, doesn't it, Ralph?j Fairy Crone wills her quietness to Janet Anderson, the girl who can always be heard when there is something to hear. Sterling Crone wills his car, which has to be pushed three miles before it starts, to Charles Harbaugh, so he doesn't have to make the excuse, I ran out of gas, when with a girl. Donald Rentzel is a very fortunate fellow to be willed Rachel Davis' personality of getting acquainted with everyone in one day. With all my love goes Jean Eisenhart's ten easy lessons of winning a boy's heart to Althea King who seems to be having trouble in learning them. Delores Fetrow wills her late hours to Donna Beam, drinking coffee won't help to keep you awake, Donna. To Dorothy Dubbs goes Flurene Garrett's height and weight which she won't be needing in the future. Take care of them like Flurene did by eating as much food as you like, do not walk too fast, it's thin- ning, eat only chocolate candy. This diet is good for your health, it doubles it. Jeanne Gross wills her popularity, her cute giggle and sportsmanship to Ruth Miller. You will usually find Ruth playing center in a soccer game, yelling her lungs out. Faye Hess gives generously her ability to speak French to Earl Smith, who answers Yah for yes in French. Earl, we know it's hard to speak French when you are used to speaking Pennsylvania Dutch all your life. William Jacobs wills his day's absence excuses to Frederick Miller, it seems hard for him to make up a good excuse that the teachers will believe. Eugene Griest receives Richard Latchaw's ability of having two dates for the same night. After all Griest has to travel from Wellsville to Dover, so he thinks he is entitled to this. Don't you agree? Hilda Drawbaugh passes on her pencil points that seems to get into your skin to Arlene Leib who doesn't even have a pencil half the time. George Schneider should be very thankful to receive Paul Berk- heimer's quiet and bashful ways. George sometimes has to get the girls to talk for him. Be- cause of his bashfulness? Silly question to ask, isn't it, George. Billy Brunk wills his title, King of the Crooners to John Bupp, who has all the girls swooning over him already and shouting Hi, Frankie. June Brillhart is quite fortunate in receiving Louise Frey's beautiful voice and her acting career. June knows her tunes when it comes to Newsettc work. Mary Ida Gerber leaves her gossiping technique to Elsie Weinhold. Don't let Elsie get you cornered, she'll talk a tin ear 52 The 1949 Memoscope SENIOR CLASS VVILL AND TESTAMENT I Continued Q on you. Wayne Gross is bequeathed Kenneth Lehr's ability to boot a soccer ball. Here are the steps: first you place both feet on the ground, aim high enough so your foot will miss the ball and connect with somebody's shins. After you have this player out of your way, you kick the ball, all you can, for your goal. Simple, isn't it? Helen Limbert gives her ability to faint at Cou11ty Fairs so some handsome man will catch her gently in his strong arms, to Grace May. Don't tell anyone but that's how Grace gets acquainted with so many hand- some boys. To John Carroll goes Carl Livingston's gentlemanly manners of taking some boy's girl oif his hands for a night. Of course John used them a little differently than Carl. Ray- mond Miller wills his daily gum customers to Robert Little so he can start in business for himself to earn money towards a new car. Clair Nesbit passes on his quick wittedness and thoughtful thinking to Stanley Rube Lentz. I understand that Stanley is a Hash on the basketball floor. To Constance Miller goes Arlene Paules' eye Hirting with the boys and jolly laugh. Also to have her Chemistry lessons done ahead of time. What's the theory, Arlene? Doris Spangler is fortunate in receiving Dawn Small's system of Going Steady with a handsome young man. Girls, stick to your men, there's going to be a war if you don't. Phyllis Smith. gladly gives her old jokes and second helpings at dinner to June Dawes who doesn't even get to see the food. Glenn Snelbecker proudly wills his crew haircut to Lorne Laughman, although Lorne's father is a barber he hates to take advantage of him. It is quoted Your strength comes from your hair. Lottie Stover gives her 'Amaster of giggles which can be heard here and there in the schoolroom to Helen Snelbecker, who uses it to a better advantage than Lottie. Ruth lflfentz passes down her efficient and dignified ways to Nancy Shorb, who is quite a manager in more ways than one. Betty Kinsey should be very thankful to receive Doris Marx's pleas- ing personality and ability to help create friendship between her fellow classmates. To Jeanette Miller goes Mary Jane Spahr's small dainty features and perious attitude in class. I quote nice things come in small packages. Mary Jane has a beautiful red complexion when she talks to a boy, and it doesn't come from rough whiskers, does it Mary Jane? Jeanette looks so pale I thought this would help. Jacqueline Smith wills her good Chemistry marks to Charles Harbaughgwe hope this helps you, Charles. Dudley Stonch wills his natural curly hair to Wayne Leckrone. Wayne has a hard time getting his hair to lay in waves. Maybe you could borrow Dudley's Toni home permanent kit for a few daysg of course, Wayne, you have to buy a refill before using it. To Charles Miller goes Raymond Wilt's title, Mr. America, Basketball Star, and The Home Run King. Yes, I know, don't laugh, but we have to give Raymond a break sometime. The All- American athlete of Dover High School is . . . Raymond CBabe Ruthj Wilt. Barbara Weaver wills her charming personality and winning ways to both sexes to Louise Eisenhart- the Junior girl whose laughter is always overflaming. Loris Baublitz wills her muscles and ability to raise a commotion over such a small matter to Margaret Morgart. I'll let you in on a secret, Peggy has found out that she can make S100 to S200 a week. How? By becoming a wrestler. Donald Zeigler bequeaths his jet- propulsion speed to Donald Gross. We hope Donald doesn't burn up the gym floor in basket- ball like Donald Zeigler did in Chemistry Class. Glenn Ziegler passed on his blowpipe of which the orchestra is glad, to Grace May. Good luck with the Sax, Grace. Testator : Loms E. BAUBLITZ. The 1949 Memoscope 53 Who's Who in the Best Looking ........... Most Popular ....,o,... ...,,......... Best Singer ..,...,...
