East Berlin High School - Reflector Yearbook (East Berlin, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1949 volume:

1 t)edica tion We, the 49’ers, humbly dedicate this Anniversary Edition to our par- ents who have sacrificed so that it might be possible for us to be grad- uated from East Berlin High School of the Conewago Joint School Sys- tem. This dedication is made at the suggestion of our four-year sponsor, E. M. Gruver, supervising principal of the Jointure, who has worked with us in making the 49’ers edition of the REFLECTOR possible. We hope the many sacrifices (per- haps heartaches at times) they have made will not have been made in vain. May they ever be as proud of our future achievements as they will be the night we receive our diplomas. 1 Paul P. Lerew, Vice President, Richard O. Riggs, J. Faber Wildasin.

BanJP. erionne I Senior Since the 1948 REFLECTOR went to press, the band has had the most active year since instrumental music was incorporated into the high school pro- gram. One reason for this concentrated activity pro- gram was the desire to pay for part of the fifty-one new uniforms, the other funds coming from the local Lions Club (We have since ordered nine more com- plete, and several extra parts of uniforms). Our first activity was the preparation for the Forensic Con- test, which occupied most of our time from December to May. There being no competition in either County or District Contests, we automatically qualified for the State Contest at Oil City, April 30, 1948, for which town we left in two chartered motor coaches on April 29, returning on May 1. Charles Sanders, tenor saxophonist, won the District and placed third in the State. Thirty-three members of our band played in the County Music Festival at Gettysburg College on April 9, from which time until late fall our calendar took the following order: May 30, Dills- burg parade; May 31, East Berlin parade; June 12, Holtzschwamm festival; June 19, Abbottstown fes- tival; June 20, Parade of Bands, Williams Grove; June 26, East Berlin festival; July 3, Adams Co. Fair Grounds; July 10, Kralltown Grange; July 17, Franklintown firemen; July 23, Abbottstown fire- men; July 24, Shiloh carnival; July 31, Holtz- schwamm festival; Aug. 7, Community Carnival, Adams Co. Fair Grounds; Aug. 14, Rohler’s Church festival; Aug. 21, Wellsville festival; Aug. 23, New Oxford carnival; Aug. 28,Thomasville festival; Aug. 30, Adams Co. School Directors’ Convention, South Mountain Fair Grounds; Sept. 3, Adams Co. Fair Grounds; Sept. 11, Dillsburg firemen; Sept. 18, Wolf’s Church picnic; Sept. 20, Pageant of Bands, York; Oct. 22, Dillsburg Hallowe’en Kiddies’ Pa- rade; Oct. 25, Dillsburg Hallowe’en Fantastic Pa- rade; Oct. 30, East Berlin Hallowe’en Parade; Nov. 6, Wellsville Hallowe’en Parade; Nov. 19, Freedom Train, Gettysburg. junior Of the thirty-five members of last year’s Junior Band, twenty-three have been promoted to the Senior Band, two are still unpromoted, and ten quit band. This year’s edition of the Junior Band contains twenty-eight pupils, six of whom were absent when the picture was made (measles). Several of these newcomers will be moved into the Senior Band before the close of school, because their progress has been more rapid than that of the aver- d3and In addition to these engagements, we played at all football games, except New Freedom, away, when it rained all day. On Dec. 23, the band joined the choral groups in putting on our Annual Christmas Program, report- edly one of the best ever offered by the high school musicians. On April 19, 1949, seventeen of our members represented us at the County Musical Festival, Gettysburg College. It is hoped that plans can be formulated by which weekly band rehearsals can be held during the sum- mer months, and again fill a number of engagements, but not to the extent we did last summer, because the students deserve more leisure time to attend affairs of their choice. Charles Sanders will again represent us in the tenor sax contest at Harrisburg, and, if successful at the State Contest. Lots of luck, Chas.! During the past year our band has been under the able direction of Clair Brenner of York, a graduate of Ithaca College of Music. He has had wide experi- ence in directing and teaching instrumental music, at present being assistant director of the famed Spring Garden Band of York. He has a private studio in the Julius Music Store where he teaches private lessons to many of York’s outstanding musicians. He is with us only two days each week. John Myers, Wayne Livingston and Earl Orner, trumpets; Marley Gross, Helen Basset, Virginia Hoak, Joan Sheffer, Miriam Rodgers, and Mildred Haar, clarinets; George Rabenstine and William Bollinger, trombones; Mary Dolheimer, Phyllis Hoffheins and Charles Sanders, saxophones; Paul Rentzel, bass drum; Robert Leib, snare drum; Harry Moul, bass horn, and Joanne Anderson, mellophone, will be lost by graduation, but quite a number are about ready to move from the Junior to the Senior Band. ddand age music pupil. It is hoped to have all hese mem- bers advanced by the opening of school next fall. Mr. Brenner is especially pleased with the progress of the clarinet section which contains ten members. This is the department in which East Berlin has been light for several years, there being only as many of these as in the cornet-trumpet section. Next year it is hoped to have twice as many clarinetists as trumpeters. s WixeJ CL Josephine Mixon, Audrey Marklc, Joanne Anderson, Judy Altland, Mary Jacobs, Helen Bassett, Mildred Haar, Lena Wrights, Dorothy .OrUS McGregor, Kathic Miller, Peggy Mummert, Doris Murray, Beverly Pifer, Gloria Albright, Frances Elgin, Margaret Leese, Betty Gruver, Doris Bywaters, Jean Payne, Joanne Biesccker, Phyllis Hoffheins, accompanist; Mae Deardorff, Janet Bentzel, Virginia Hoak, Patsy Lillich, Jeanne Hoffman, Mrs. Elgin[ director; Marley Gross, Fred Brandt, Doris Jacobs, Betty Rabenstine, Ruthetta Bievenour, Geraldine Witter, Sylvia Barton, Mary Dolheimer, Marian Fissel, Mary Kline- dinst, Ruthanna Stambaugh, Patricia Miller, MaryAnn Gerhart, Rachael Miller, Ruth Livingston, Ronald Hoke, Donald Grim, Charles Sanders, Donald Danner, William Lcrew, Paul Rentzcl, Gerald Slothour, Earl Orner, John Myers, John Philips, Harry Moul, Donald Markey, Gene Hoopes, George Rabenstine, William Eisenhart Bob Leib Richard Graybill. ji h 9 PUS Betty Graver, Gloria Albright, Geraldine Lemmon, Frances Elgin, Mrs. Dorothy Elgin, director; Judy Altland, Patsy Lillich, Beverly 7 Pifer, Jeanne Hoffman, Doris Bywaters, Mac Deardorff, Jean Payne, Phyllis Hoffheins, accompanist; Margaret Leesc, Audrey Markle, Joanne Anderson, Mildred Haar, Mary Jacobs, Ruth Livingston, Joanne Biesecker, Mary Klinedinst, Virginia Hoak, Nadine Sunday, Helen Bassett, Ruthanna Stambaugh, Betty Rabenstine, Doris Myers, Phyllis Richard, Sylvia Barton, Lena Wrights, Josephine Mixon, Doris Jacobs, Marilyn Hoover, Jane Kimball, Patricia Miller, Ruthetta Bievenour, Mary Ann Gerhart.

CLrJW UdlC During the past year, the Boys’ and Girls’ Choruses, both in Senior and Junior High, practiced faithfully under the able direction of Mrs. Dorothy Elgin, supervisor of vocal music in the Conewago Joint School System. Their chief activities were the combined vocal-instrumental recital given in the fall, when all groups, both large and small, pleased a capacity crowd. The climax was reached when the operetta, “The Mocking Bird,” was offered on March 26. To say it was a grand success would be putting it mildly, as nearly a thousand persons who heard and saw the matinee and afternoon pro- ductions, proclaimed it the best ever produced here. Visitors praised it as equal or better than offerings by much larger schools. Joanne Biesecker and Bev- erly Pifer, sopranos, Betty Gruver and Jeanne Hoff- man, mezzo-sopranos, and Frances Elgin, also, competed in the Adams Co. Forensic Contests at New Oxford this spring. Only Jeanne qualified for the District Contest to be held in Harrisburg, but only Joanne will be lost by graduation. So East Berlin High should have a lot of good voices around which to build another good chorus.

However, this number dwindled as the season wore on due largely to lack of transpor- tation. “Johnny” Cristofaro, Harry Moul and Gene Hoopes, tackles; “Elbow” Lau and “Punkin” Markey, guards; “Charley” Eisenhart, center; “Phil” Frey, Carl Perry and “Bill” Eisenhart, backs, were varsity lettermen from 1947. Moul was shifted to end where he played a good brand of ball, but all these experienced players had to be iron men because of a lack of substitute ma- terial. Graduation will claim Dick and Ralph Lingg, Moul and Perry; “Pete” Wehler, bone- crushing fullback, went to house-keeping during the holidays; Frey will be ineligible because of age, and Cristofaro has transferred to York Springs High School. The linemen were coached by Head Coach Zimmerman, while Assistant Coach Jack Taylor worked with the backs. Returning veterans will be Lau, Grim, Bollinger, Markey, Hoopes and Eisenhart brothers. Clifford Barnes and Larry Fissel saw enough action last year to make them leading candidates in 1949. At a “prospect” meeting this spring, some sixty- five boys signed for next season. The coaches were ably assisted by Senior Manager Bob Leib and Ronald Hoke, sophomore. Our season record in Conference competition was two victories against four defeats. The “Little Four” Conference has since admitted Washington Township of Franklin County, York Springs of Adams County, and Stewartstown of York County to its league. The league is limited to nine teams, so only two more may be admitted. Sept. 24—E. B. at Littlestown. Oct. 1—Stewartstown at E. B. Oct. 8—York Springs at E. B. 1949 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Oct.

As the season wore on several quit the squad, either because of lack of transportation or lack of interest. Several pre-season practice games were played, and all they were was “practice” since all were lost. Those sharp' opponents included Glen Rock twice, Delta, St. Francis Prep, and Dallas- town. During our ten game league season we opened by defeating Littlestown at Littlestown. Then Big- lerville came here and pushed us from the win column; next York Springs fell when “Johnny” Myers got hot, but next Boiling Springs, the league champs, scalded us for one of our worst defeats of the season. Then came the thundering herd from New Oxford and what they did to us wasn’t pleas- ant, and before we could recuperate, Littlestown got revenge. However, we felt better when we defeated Biglerville away, in the best game of the year, the score being tied many times, and as late as three minutes before the end. Next York Springs fell with the subs getting a chance. Boiling Springs again turned on the heat at Mechanicsburg, while New Oxford pushed us around the second time to finish our season with four wins and six losses for fourth place in the league. The Varsity will lose John Myers and Dick Lingg through graduation and Phil Frey because of age. While their shoes will be hard to fill, quite a few boys from the reserve list should be very useful next year. Fissel, Hinkle, Hoopes, Lau, Shetter and Walker should make good candidates for Varsity berths for 1949-50. 0 . 0 J . “Elbow” Lau, Manager; Jack Glatfelter, G; “Don” Walker, G; “Curley” Hinkle, F; junior L ardlly.

SCHOLASTIC LEAGUE This year the girls were coached by Miss Mil- dred Miller, erstwhile star forward at Lykens High School in Dauphin County, and Gettysburg Col- lege, from which institution she was graduated in 1948. Naturally, a new coach employs a different sys- tem of play, so the girls were not too impressive at the start, but to say their season was a success would be putting it mildly, because they closed the season by giving New Oxford girls their only de- feat of the season. Graduation will hurt the 1949-50 squad since all regulars, Sheffer, Albright and Leese, forwards, and Billet, Winand and Dolheimer, guards, were seniors, all with two or more years as regulars on the Varsity except Tiny Albright, who just grew up during the past year. The Varsity finished the season with seven wins against three defeats, while the Junior Varsity won one, tied one and lost eight. “Al” Billet and “Margie” Leese represented E. B. H. S. on the County All-star team which played the League Coaches in a game at Bigler- ville, Thursday, March 17. An additional team, Newville, has been added to our league making a seven team circuit. Each team will automatically have twelve league games.

Cfit'L 'Vanity (f aihetbaff INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL ’48-’49 This year there were four boys’ and five girls’ teams in the Senior-Hi League, and three boys’ teams in the Junior-Hi circuit. Competition was keen and each team had its enthusiastic followers. Some games were witnessed by as many as 200 students. Officiating was done by Varsity players, as was scoring and timing. These experiences should teach leadership, appreciation, of others’ abilities and sportsmanship. Next year it is hoped to get more students enrolled in intramurals, and to run the schedule for a longer period of time. In the Senior-Hi Boys’ Division, the Flying Eagles, captained by Raymond Lease, won the right to have their names inscribed upon the permanent trophy. The Senior-Hi girls’ winners were not deter- mined in time for publication. Jacque Hoffman saw his Junior-Hi boys, the Wild Cats, claw their way to the top in the first year of Junior-Hi intramurals. From these partici- pants will come the future Varsity players at E. B. H.

EaSeUt RUNNERS-UP FOR 1948 The 1948 baseball team was the first to qualify for the championship playoff, in the history of the Adams County Scholastic Baseball League. How- ever, they lost to a good Boiling Springs High team. Coach Zimmerman’s charges outhit their opp- onents almost without exception, but their fielding was a bit spotty. “Bill” Moul did the bulk of the pitching, with “Hully” Hull giving able assistance, while “Pete” Gordon did most of the catching. That prospects are bright for another very good year was evinced in the first game of the 1949 campaign against St. Francis Prep on Tuesday, April 5, when “Bill” set them down with two hits, one a scratch hit, and fanned fourteen in seven innings.

Student (Council Members and officers of the Student Council were selected by the student body in September, the president from the Senior class, secretary from the juniors, vice president from any class. Six repre- sentatives from the senior class, five from the junior class, four from the sophomore class, three from the freshmen, two from the eighth grade, and one from the seventh grade constitute the Council. Students must rank in the upper two-fifths of their respective classes in order to be eligible to the Council, except those from the seventh grade where no true estimate of grades is possible, since they come from many different schools. This august body passes upon all activities of clubs, classes, or other groups. The Council consists of three committees: safety, social, and athletic. The Safety Committee has charge of hall patrol, lunchroom monitors, and the Safety Patrol; the Social Committee appoints groups to present assembly programs, encourages proper dancing, and generally supervises all social activities of the student body. The Council decided that the profits from the Magazine Drive should go toward the purchase of a piano. Accordingly, a spinnet-type Wurlitizer piano was presented to the district on Feb. 19, when Martin Kunkel, high salesman, presented the in- strument to Faber Wildasin, president of the Conc- wago Joint School System. On April 8, Robert Trimmer, Dale Mummert, Florence Altland and Joan Spangler represented Fast Berlin High at a conference of Student Coun- cil representatives from thirty-nine schools. This meeting was held in Gettysburg. 57 Robert Powers, Donald Eyster, Dale Wolf, Sentinel; George Bentzel, Reporter; Raymond Miller, President; Mr. Heber- lein, Adviser; Warren Bushcy, Vice President; Rodney Sebright, Secretary; Wayne Bushcy, Kenneth Bushey, George Robinson, Raymond Swope, Richard Graybill, Richard Claybaugh, Lavernc Kraft, Luther Arcndt, Harold Hammc, John Jacobs, Ralph Seifert, Eugene Lccsc, Charles Stockham, Harvey Payne, Luther Howe, Franklin Krall, Larry Leib, Donald Krall, Kenneth Fetterhoff, John Moyer, Raymond Dubbs, Kenneth Wolf, Glenn McGregor, Verdene Lighty, Glenn Rey- nolds, Richard Lingg, Charles Weaver, Harold Fuller. future armerd of? merica The F. F. A. began its year of activities on September 9, 1948, by attending the South Moun- tain Fair where the members participated in com- petitive livestock and crop judging. Dale Wolfe placed first in corn judging and was awarded a gold medal. John Wonders and Raymond Swope won ninth and tenth places, respectively, in swine judging. Raymond Dubbs, Raymond Miller and Dale Wolfe were delegates to the Franklin-Adams area meetings in Waynesboro, Gettysburg and Biglers- ville. At the Gettysburg meeting, Raymond Miller was elected President of the area chapter for the coming year. New Delegates to the area meetings are William Douglass and Charles Weaver. The local members attended the 4-H roundup at the J. J. Hamme farm on December 7. The Hereford steer —owned by Raymond Swope placed fourth in the competition and was eligible for the 4-H contest at the Pennsylvania Farm Show. A campaign to sell one hundred twenty-five boxes of Christmas cards was a success. Our members availed themselves of the oppor- tunity to visit the demonstrations and window ex- hibits of other departments of vocational agricul- ture at the annual State farmshow in January. The state wide meeting of F. F. A. members at the Forum in Harrisburg drew our attention for one evening. We had never before quite realized the scope and activities of the organization. One fresh- man expressed all our opinions when he stated “I never thought the F. F. A. was so big.” During the mild February weather, we pruned, cultivated and fertilized the trees in the peach or- chard. A spray schedule was also put into effect. Field and garden seeds in the amount of seven hundred fifty dollars were sold. Our annual Parents-Son banquet was held on Thursday, March 31. Ninety-five members, par- ents and friends attended. Raymond Miller, Presi- dent, served as toastmaster. Included on the program were: Invocation, Don- ald Eyster; Creed recitation, Luther Arendt; summary of supervised farming program, Ralph Seifert; review of chapter’s activities for the year, Lee Eisenhart; presentation of Franklin- Adams Area farmer awards to Verdene Lighty, Raymond Miller and Glenn Reynolds, Mr. Heber- lein, supervisor; brief remarks, Richard Way- bright, Gettysburg, State F. F. A. reporter; ad- dress, Dr. Charles F. Saylor, Superintendent of Shippensburg Schools. Mr. Gruver was made an honorary life member of the chapter. A film “America the Beautiful” was shown. The F. H. A. is a national organization of girls studying homemaking in Jr.-Sr. high schools. It encourages initiative in planning and carrying out those activities related to homemaking. Its chief aim is the bettering of homes and fam- ily living, by providing opportunities to help solve problems important to home life. It sponsors individual, group, State and National projects; it tends to develop leadership and intelli- gent participation. East Berlin High is proud of its F. H. A. Club and its achievements. future JJ ome ofJL menca Joan Spangler, Treasurer; Joanne Biesecker, Song Leader; Ruthanna Stambaugh, Vice President; Patricia Miller, Secre- tary; Mrs. Staley, Adviser; Helen Burgard, Historian; Phyllis Hoffhcins, Evelyn Klincdinst, Ruthctta Bievenour, Anna Gruvcr, Myrtle Knaub, Shirley Reynolds, Miriam Klincdinst, Phyllis Richard, Ruthanna Stough, Evelyn Seifert, Ruth Rinker, Mae Deardorff, Charlotte Hunter, Alice Lcfever, Ruth Staub, Anna Myers, MaryAnn Gerhart, Ruthctta Rau- hauser, Betty Rabenstine, Margaret Akins, Ethel Gruver, Lois Nace, Josephine Mixon, Sylvia Barton.

The Club has a good chance to win again a ban- ner which is presented to the club which scores highest in the Bible Study Contest. At present it is the proud possessor of three such banners.

A Thanksgiving basket found its way into a needy home. The girls shared the Christmas spirit by presenting a check to a local family. Repre- sentation at local and district conferences has been a “must.” Joanne Anderson was the club’s delegate to the District U. N. Assembly sponsored by the State Y. M. C. A.

The Safety Patrol set up for the first time this year, is the result of the cooperative efforts of the local Lions Club and the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the local fire company, these two groups furnishing nine good rain coats and caps. The badges and belts were supplied by the Key- stone Automobile Club of York. When all this foundation work was being planned, the local town council painted lines at intersections, and erected a number of much-needed signs near the streets leading to the schools. The Patrol is composed of boys and girls, all volunteers, from grades six, seven, eight. Jacque Hoffman was selected as the Captain, with Mr. Sheely serving as the adviser. The Patrol has functioned faithfully and effi- ciently, rain or shine, morning, noon, and at dis- missal time. So well have the students and teachers cooper- ated in the execution of this program, that not a single accident or near-accident has resulted during the first six months of the school year. 64 Jack Anderson, Dick Anderson, Marlcy Gross, President; Donald Grim, Secretary; Glenn Miller, Pice President; Rodney bebright, Treasurer; William Lcrcw, Robert Powers, Mr. Shsely, Sponsor; Samuel Ebcrsolc, John Brodbeck, Donald Walker, Verdenc Lighty, Jacquc Hoffman, Donald Myers, LaRue Hciner, Wayne Fidler, Raymond Dubbs, Kenneth Wolf, Robert Burgard, Charles Weaver, Zebb Miller, Richard Claybaugh, Donald Sheffcr. 0 c cu Ths Club was organzed early last fall because of popular request. Thirty-six members expressed a desire to form such a club last December. Immedi- ately upon its organization, the Club was enrolled in the National Scholastic Competition group, and belongs to the Junior National Rifle Club, operat- ing under the auspices of the N. N. A. A range has been staked off at the north end of the school campus, and is now near completion. Safety was the uppermost idea in mind while con- structing this range, with four feet of sawdust backing, and wings of sufficient size and thickness to prevent danger from riccocheting bullets. The Club has stressed shooting fundamentals, but most of all it aims to make every shooter safety-conscious.

Margaret Leese, Historian. 74 49eri t iApoAaf WE, THE FIFTY-EIGHT disillusioned mem- bers of the Class of 1949 of the East Berlin High School Unit of the Conewago Joint School System, located in the Borough of East Berlin in the County of Adams in the State of Pennsylvania, United States of America, being of reasonably sound mind and study-torn bodies, do as hereinafter decreed, dispose of our private and or personal properties and or qualities, to wit: To the underclassmen our hunger for knowledge, respect for wisdom, and desire for intelligence, with the hope it gets them out of as much trouble as it got us into. Also, to the same parties our work- worn and thread-bare books, worn down pencils, and “uncalled-for” worries on report card days. To the Faculty go our sincere thanks and kindest regards and appreciation for their patience and assistance in weathering the storm of educational clouds, above which we had difficulty in keeping our heads. May said faculty experience a lengthy calm after the passing of the ’49 storm. To the entire student body of the Junior-Senior High School go striped uniforms, and balls and chains, so the Guidance Committee can keep them in tow. A pair of unsoiled gloves to Mrs. Mickley so she can change typewriter ribbons without soiling her “Camay” hands. To Mr. Bock a good, tough leather glove, so he can pat himself on the back without injury to said appendage. To the Sheelys, Ma, Pa, Kay and Jay, that over- sized baby buggy formerly used by that giant of ’49, Harry Moul; it’s large enough for the twins, and in good shape. A pitcher of ice water to Mr. Schade so he can keep those Chem students awake next year (watch out, Markey!). To Mr. Zimmerman goes a satin pillow on which to carry those dear, but fragile, freshmen athletes. A pair of roller skates to Mrs. Gideon to reduce fatigue while running to and from the office and Room 23 (Then, too, she’ll be more easily heard). Mim Rodgers wills her driving ability and George Rabenstine wills what is left of what once represented a mechanical apparatus called an auto- mobile right after the turn of the century, to Miss Vlahakis, so she can journey with “pleasure and expediency” to the rural schools for the dissem- ination of artistic culture, and let those lowly seniors of ’50 stay and suffer with the rest of the students. Marley Gross to Wayne Goodwin his ability to throw the “Toro” (We don’t think Red needs any help). George Robinson’s willingness (perhaps it’s the car’s fault) to drive leisurely, to Rodney Sebright whose cars just can’t go fast enough (Remember, Rod. what happened to our delinquent senior and your classmate from Bragtown). Dick Lingg’s quiet manner and speech is willed to Pat Lillich who can wisely use both. Joan Sheffer wills her three V’s, vim, vigor and vitality, to Marilyn Hoover who, with wise use of same, can become another basketball great. Marian Fissel’s fudge-making ability goes to those love birds, Jeanne and Franny (this fudge lured Al). Ned Detter’s pitching ability goes to Charles Weaver, who really wants to make the big leagues. Vic Enochs wills his way with figures to Don Markey, and to Dick Anderson who has a way all his own with figures, but not the kind Vic thinks about. Ed Klinedinst wills his gentlemanly mien to John Glatfelter who seems to have ants in his pants. Mildred Haar offers, without any strings, her shortness of stature to Mr. Taylor, Mr. Zimmer- man or Mr. Schade; each could spare a few inches. To Mr. Fissel goes the seniors’ ability to make paper airplanes, so gracefully used in sailing his Scholastics about the room; then he won’t need get off his chair at all. John Myers passes his speed and natural ath- letic ability on to Jim Shetter who has the will but not the way. To Elbow Lau goes Ken Myers’ algebra ability. We hope the ’50’s get as much aid from Elbow’s papers as the ’49ers did from Ken’s. Carl Perry (small but mighty mite) wills his way with the fair sex to Wayne Mummert, demure but adorable freshman (Jane is worried about his bash- fulness). Archie Bushey wills his fondness for studying to all who follow, especially to Marlin Krout. Alice Lefever is the sole recipient of Sylvia Bil- let’s superb athletic abilities and accomplishments. Nadine Sunday wills her ability to keep her mouth shut to Beverly Pifer who has trouble doing same, and her “attendance” record to those serious and conscientious students who are always in school. Phyllis Hoffheins and Sylvia Barton give their abilities to play cards and watch telvision at the same time, to Dan Shellenberger and Don Markey. To Beverly Pifer goes Joanne Biesecker’s ability to sing without looking as though she had been sucking lemons. Teen Wolfe wills her all-way stretch to Delores Moul so she can improve her Lou Costello figure. Joe Mixon inherits Mae DeardorfPs shyness with boys; we understand Joe needs some. Dick Myers wills his ability to cowboy to Ray- mond Lease who wrecks his car every time he tries to “show off.” Phil. Frey can handily use all the bashfulness inherited from Bill Bollinger. Grover McCoury’s “below thirty” speed limit is passed on to George Bentzel who goes faster than that in low. We understand two persons have been keeping their eyes on George—the cop and the mortician. If Peg Wilhelm can use Mary Myers’ driving ability, and then gets a car, she won’t have to hitch-hike. Margie Leese wills her high heels to George Bentzel so he can pitch woo to his lover-girl, Phyl, who is one of the tallest girls in school. Paul Rentzel wills his drumming ability and his perfect rhythm, to Jim Shetter who is wanting in both. If Peg Wilhelm uses that graceful walk handed her by Virginia Thomas, she’ll not be doing the hoola, hoola while strolling through the aisles. Harry Mou! wills his ideal routine used at the Mill Cross Roads, his “fight, then kiss and make up, then fight, and repeat,” to Jerry Slothour. If it works as well for Jerry as it has for Harry—well, we’ll wait and see. To “Benedict” Arnold goes Wayne Livingston’s seat in the cornet section of the band. . . . Perse- verance may get you there, Dick. Mary Dolheimer wills her bicycle to Dick Gray- bill, so he can more easily travel from near Thom- asville to near Bigmount. Ruth Staub’s listening habits in Mrs. Gideon’s English go to Don Markey who has an affliction called “sleepiness”—low blood pressure or small sleep period, which? Pat Lillich promises to let the RCA system do the broadcasting, and use some of the dignity given her by Gerry Lemmon. Bill Moul wills to Don Grim, that fair young damsel from Hampton, Audrey, on condition that he treat her just as nicely as he (Bill) did and then give her back on short notice. Ruthetta Bievenour wills her ability to be “first” on the bus, to Pat and Jeanne, both of whom miss the bus frequently or make the rest wait. Betty Gruver inherits Tiny Albright’s abundance of “pep” in gym class, so she doesn’t look as though she were suffering such intense pain. Jennie Stanton gives all her adhesive tape and clothes pins, to be used to keep his trap shut (we’ve seen your pretty teeth now). To Ruthanna Stambaugh goes Helen Burgard’s cherry-pie baking ability—with this help, we feel sure she’ll win next year. Bob Leib’s little black book with all those female addresses (especially from the Littlestown area) goes to Elbow Lau and his Lincoln. Charles Sanders gives back to Bill Eisenhart that bit of feminine pulchritude not far from good old E. B. H. S., but—remember, Bill, she’s only given on the Lend-Lease basis. Glenn Reynolds wills his ’29 Ford and its cow- boying antics to Duane Hafer who insists (so the girls say) that his car won’t go over thirty (you know, Glenn has a new Plymouth now). Mim Klinedinst wills her slim figure and dainti- ness to Ruth Rinker and her two hundred forty pounds. Evelyn Klinedinst wills all her lost and found pencils, and all the bail-point pens to Bill Lerew, so he’ll have something with which to write. Earl Orner wills his cleverness in keeping away from “Smitty,” the cop, to Jerry Slothour and other underclassmen, so they don’t become “delinquent,” as “Smitty” put it to a senior dignitary. Ethel Gruver’s ability to keep her boy friends goes to Dot Miller who seems to have difficulty along this line. Dick Graybill who has been the chief benefactor of this will, also receives Earl Mummert’s bashful- ness (boy, can he use all of it, and then some). Elizabeth McCoury wills her canary to Beverly Pifer, so she’ll have someone to sing to after Johnny leaves. Joanne Anderson wills a box of Kleenex to Don- ald Markey: use it wisely, boy! Helen Bassett wills her speaking ability before classs, to Doris Bywaters who seems able to speak only to one person—no, it’s not a boy, but Betty Gruver, that other quiet soul of ’SO. Anna Myers wills her quiet, little, sneaking walk to Mr. Sheely so he can sneak up on those trout that he raves about, but never brings home (we hear he had only minnows for his efforts over Easter). Mary Jacobs wills her steadiness with boys to that tall sophomore from Reading Township. Judy Altland gets Betty Winand’s long list of boy friends, because Betty won’t be needing them when she goes to college. Our Prexy, Glenn Miller, wills his ability to con- duct class meetings with secrecy and dispatch, to his brother, Raymond, who has that bunch of buck- aroos of 1950, with the instruction that Raymond does not let them throw him. Finally, to the Class of 1950, our immediate suc- cessors, go our many thanks for their friendliness, cooperation, and fellowship during the past three years; may their remaining year be a pleasant and prosperous one. Sealed, signed and delivered this twenty-seventh day of May, in the year of our Lord, 1949. JOAN SHEFFER NED DETTER BETTY WINAND f- recliction op JliincjS to Cdt ome Compiled and Edited by Marian Fissel, Sylvia Billet, Sylvia Barton and Phyllis Hoffheins Well, what do you know! Ten years have passed since the ’49ers set out to hit “pay dirt,” in the various fields of “gold.” Our members have, in the interim, established the prosperous city of “Gold Digger,” U. S. A., whose high mogul is the incomparable High Priest of Gold, the Hon. Glenn Miller. The Chief Execu- tioner of the Law is George Rabenstine, Esquire, whose chief ambition in life is to make unhappy couples happy by exchanging “freedom from matri- monial ties” for some of that good old gold. His case, “Lingg vs. Winand,” grounds, incompatabil- ity as to careers. The city’s omy dentist, Dr. Charles Sanders, reportedly uses the sweet music of his tenor sax (remember, he was “excellent” at Oil City) instead of novocaine. While “Doc” soothes his customer, Mary Dolheimer, dental hygienist, prepares the victim, Mrs. A1 Billett whose little Billets are properly entertained and cared for by Ruthetta Bievenour, child psychologist. Opposite the dental parlor is the Holy Roller Church, the Right Rev. Dr. Harry Moul inflicts spiritual pun- ishment upon the soul-wearied worshippers, while the Mocking Bird, Joanne Biesecker, furnishes the musical punishment which puts the fear of the Lord into all present. (In fact, we were afraid to enter the church, lest we be thrown into their influence.) Down street a clever sign reads: “Bring Your Squirt for a Squirt at Lemmon’s.” What a high- class joint—Wow! All high school grads (’49ers, Haar, Bassett and Hoak) for waitresses. We enter to find a lot of noise and in the midst is Coach Sylvia Billett whose team had just won its third straight championship for dear old Gold Digger High. But wait! A rotund blonde is going through all sorts of gyrations during her “post mortem” of the game—its Assistant Coach Joan Sheffer, popu- lar and jovial, as ever. Marley Gross is the chief mortician, specializing in ambulance service for those pedestrians whose misfortune it is to venture upon the streets and highways, while the ’49ers are out for their spins. If the others don’t get them, the driver of the ambulance, Glenn Reynolds, will put the finishing touches on them. Carl Perry was the latest occu- pant of Glenn’s ambulance, when his ’49er Dodge went out of control. We asked the officer, State Trooper Grover Mc- Coury, where the hospital was located. He directed us to where we found the chief staff physician was Gloria Albright, and superintendent of nurses was Sylvia Barton, B. N. Sylvia was all smiles, because she had just assisted with the delivery of the first twins—mother, the former Teeny Wolfe. Two other capable nurses included Evelyn Klinedinst and Mae Deardorff. Much to our surprise Archie Bushey had charge of the beautiful and efficient school system, but then he always did have that “professor” air, or didn’t he? He told us his elementary schools were being supervised by our own Ruth Staub who in turn told us she was having all kinds of trouble with those Gruver kids (no, not our adviser’s kids, you know better than that, but Margaret Leese Gruver’s. But then what should one expect—a chip off the old blocks.) The buildings were really spic and span under the tender care of George Robin- son, custodian. “Chennie” Stanton escorted us through all the halls of learning and finally brought us to a room in which an Etiquette Club was meet- ing, under the capable direction of Ed Klinedinst. (We bet you thought Jennie was Mrs. Bushey, didn’t you? Well, she’s only the secretary.) Boy, did we get the good eats at Helen’s (Bur- gard) Pastry Shop; still specializing on that State Championship Cherry Pie. Two of her courteous and capable assistants were Ethel Gruver and Anna Myers, still the “silent” members they always were. One of the busy corners in the city was that One and Three Cent Store, Rodgers and Sunday, proprietors. 77 John Myers and Rentzel Insurance Agency not only wrote all the insurance in the cty, but owned much of the property. But then, you remember what a good fellow Rentzel was at drumming up business, and how economically John lived. They employed four of the outstanding ’49ers’ secre- taries, Thomas, Mary Jacobs, McCoury and Mary Myers. Who do you suppose cashed our Travelers’ cheques? That’s right, Earl Orner—and still as good looking as any of Hollywood’s best. “Home Sweet Homecide,” now a stage hit (the same stage hit back in ’49) was being shown at “The Golden Nugget” Theater, and, believe it or not, Vic Enochs and Mim Klinedinst were the stars, according to the billing. The baseball game featured Bill Moul on the mound, and Earl Mummert on short; just can’t keep those boys down. A chain of dairy farms owned by Bill Bollinger, one managed by Dale Reichert, the other by Wayne Livingston. Name of dairy farms, “Golden Flow.” Bob Leib was showing his burlesquers at the “Gold Digger’s Pit,” and who should be the bubble dancer but Phyl Hoffheins—oh boy, what a bubble it took! Phyl’s nightly and most enthusiastic sup- porters (maybe they expected too much of that bubble) were those ’49 imps of the school bleachers, the two Dicks, Lingg and Myers. They still had that old familiar wolf whistle and hungry look. Now we’ve spent all our energy, so we’ll have to lie down on our pillows of golden fleece, and have that magic wand continue to turn all our golden opportunities in successful old-age careers. JPatro n$ of the 49ers’ effector The members of the Class of 1949 deeply appreciate the financial assistance given them by the many friends of the school, through their subscribing as “Patrons.” Their genrosity has made possible this edi- tion which is humbly submitted for the approval of all who read its pages.
