The foundation for future government in Ephrata High School having been laid last year, the work was resumed this year under the faculty direction of Mr. Hammon and was carried on very successfully. The aims of this body are to stimulate cooperation between students and faculty, to promote and encourage participation in activities throughout the school, to create a more vigorous school spirit, and to develop good citizens for the future. To future Councils the Class of '48 says, More power to you.

Aires Always known for his keen intellect and pleasing personality, Ronnie has been a definite' asset to our class. He has exercised his varied talents as an active member of the Band, Dramatics Club, Student Coun- cil, Orchestra, the Mountaineer staff and the HCLOISTERETTED staff, of which he was associate editor. His popularity was one of the reasons he was chosen by us as president in our senior year. His willingness to help others and his relentless ambition are sure posts along the highway to fame. J. Richo rd Breor Here's a happy-go-lucky fellow whose witty re- marks have injected life into many a dull moment. Dick is one of those fellows who is always active. He will be remembered by all of us as Mrs. Leisey's faithful assistant in handling the slide projector at all our assembly programs. Among his other activ- ities were the Band, Mixed Chorus and Dramatics Club. Robert H Bensswormger 'fBeise, as he IS best known to all of us, faith fully served as one of our ace cheerleaders for the past two years. A fellow possessing many and varied talents, he also was active as an officer of the Dramatics Club, a member of the Band, accompanist for Mixed Chorus, the Boys' Quartet, and every chapel program. May he be one of Ephrata High's greatest contributions to the Musical world. .-9-' Paul R, Bender Paul boarded our school train at the ninth grade station and has been traveling with us ever since. This blithe Akronite has been a credit to his Alma Mater in that he is quite versatile in sports, Vmusic, and scholastics. In regard to sports, Paul has helped to bring our team to victory in many a pigskin tussle. If you have ever observed the band practicing, you have seen Paul laboriously tooting away on his alto horn. With his scholastic, athletic, hnd musical ability plus his conscientious nature, he is bound to come out on top. Myrleen Bingemcm 'lBingy hails from the metropolis of Hopeland. Her motto is, Laugh and the world laughs with you. When you hear a '4horse laugh coming around a corner, Myrleen will certainly be following it. Bingy 'has participated in the Mixed Chorus. She also displayed her talents in Dramatics Club. If you ever want to have a good time, call on Bingy,l' because she can make the dullest task a hilarious undertaking. Loraine Brugger Loraine is one girl who takes life as it comes. Although she may seem quiet and reserved, we know her to be just the opposite. Her amusing answers in English class will not be forgotten, ,nor will her ability to help us when we needed a little extra coaching in some subject. 'IQ Foye Burkholder This wee miss put in her first appearance one bright September day, twelve years ago. What Faye lacks in height she makes up in her studiousness. Just because Faye is quiet and not very talkative, doesn't say she isn't loads of fun. Just pick a subject in which Faye is interested and then you'll find out how much fun she really is. She has a smile for everybody and certainly isn't afraid to work. She has chosen business for her career. f Betty Buchen This merry lass with the twinkling blue eyes has been with us since ninth grade, at which time Akron reluctantly let her go. Buchie can usually be seen with a wad of gum in her mouth If you hear someone say, He's so sweet, you can be sure its Buchie. She has been outstanding as a basket ball player and has added much zest to the Band Mixed Chorus and Dramatics Club. Ruth Burkholder If anybody ever inquires who that tall dark attractive lass is, you can be sure they mean our Ruth. Since her arrival she has added many happy moments to our dear days in E: H. S She 1S a typical example of a serious but fun-loving girl Her personality has won her many friends Ruth has chosen commercial work, and we know she will be successful in anything she tries. Keep up the good work, Ruth, and prove to us your ability to win :ig 13 Yvonne M. Burkholcler This comely lass with her careless good nature and engaging smile is the epitome of the saying, full of fun and fancy free. Her witty conversation has done much to entertain us in the study hall, Burkie's dancing ability is a thing of envy to all of us. With her amiable nature and her willingness to co-operate, 'Burkien will go far. l G. June Corel 1'Big brown eyes and a lovely soprano voice. That's June! This sprightly miss could be seen twice a week in Mixed Chorus. She is one of those in- dustrious commercial students, who always seems to be studying.. With her friendly attitude she has made life-long friends of all of us. Ruth Cox Take humor, wit and personality, mix them all together-result, Ruth. Ruth's blonde hair and at- tractiveness have been both admired and envied by all of us. Ruth's humor and personality can't help but bubble out. Those sudden wise cracks of hers have left many people hysterical. Friendliness and neatness are just two of her many attributes. Her eagerness to get ahead will someday make her someone's excellent secretary. i?mn.3, 41-. ,ff W , f Theodore R. Dietrich Industrious, helpful, energetic, fun-loving, plus many more characteristics may be attributed to this human dynamo. Coming from Akron four years ago, he melted right into the spirit of things and made friends galore. Deeter is in the top bracket as far as scholastics are concerned. In addition, he is a truly fine sportsman. With these, plus many more assets, he is destined to find success in any vocation he may choose. Floyd R. Dissinger Have you ever wondered what our class would have been like without the presence of this fun- loving fellow? His corny jokes and spontaneous wit have enlivened many a dull moment. But don't get the false impression that he isn't serious about his work. He has long served faithfully as a member of the band. His willingness to help the other fellow, aided by his cheerful personality and ambition to get ahead, will certainly carry him far in the world. Team1e, who possesses a Jovial personality and a keen sense of humor, is one of our fellow class- men who is certain to get along in life. Until injury forced him out of action, Jay was an important factor of our football team. He has also established himself as one of the better artists in our class, exhibiting his talents in the Mountaineer and elsewhere. Dili- gence and sincerity are two of Jay's most valuable attributes. ...Q- Alice Jeon Donohue Alice is one of the more attractive girls of our class. With her brown hair and blue eyes, she catches the glance of every eye. Her chatter may be heard incessantly from the time she enters school until the time she leaves. Alice has generously given her spare time to the Mixed Chorus. Without her clear soprano voice, the Madrigal Singers would not have fared half so well. With her assets of neatness and dependability, Alice will certainly be an asset in any office. R. Joan Drybreod What a pal! What a joker! What a sport! Who? Why, Drybread, of course! Joan is one of those girls who has endeared herself to each and everyone of us. With her neat clothes and witty remarks, she has won a top spot in our aifections. Whenever a giggle bursts through the monotony of study hall, you may be sure it is Drybread', telling a joke. Joan also takes an active part in the extra-curricular activities, especially the musical organizations. With her clarinet Joan has played a prominent part in the band. A. I-lorold Dunheimer Harold arrived in E. H. S. from Glen Rock just this year. Our vivacious Harold rates high musically, as well as scholastically, for he is one of the tenors in the Mixed Chorus. Besides these accomplishments, this blithe youth is quite versatile: in dramatics, sports, and scouting. He expects to enlist in either the Army or Navy after graduation. 'I6 years. . Potricpio Ann Eberly A winsome smile, an attractive wardrobe, beau- tiful blonde hair, and neatness are items which make Pat one of the most popular girls in our class. She has been active in many extra-curricular activities, Pat has played her clarinet in the band for three years and is also a member of the CLOISTERETTE staff, the Mountaineer staff, and Dramatics Club. Since Pat is planning a career in the business world, it is a safe bet that she'll make the headlines in that field. ,W an ' j H. Joonne Eberly Pep and personality are both a part of Ebby With her sense of humor and good nature she has become one of the most popular girls in our class Using her overflowing vitality as co-captain of the cheer leaders, Ebby has led our teams to vlctory for the past two years. Numerous extra curricular activities in which she has served are the Moun taineer staff, the CLOISTERETTE staff the Mixed Chorus and Dramatics Club. Joanne was a memb r of the Student Council in both her junior and senlor Josephine Eckmon Jo is a blonde, brown-eyed lass Wlth dimples Her likable personality and sunny dispos1t1on have won her many new friends at E. H. S. Good natured ness and friendliness are her finest qualities Jo 1S one girl who is always smiling and who takes l1fe as it comes. She has been a member of the Dra matics Club for the past two years. Although her plans are rather uncertain, we feel sure Jo w1ll Find , her place in the future. - 17 ,N XS tx, Ardenia Eclwcu rds Ardenia hails from Hopeland. She joined us in our Freshman year. Although she is very quiet and reserved, her amiable smile has Won her many friends. Good little girls are seen and not heard seems to be her motto. Ardenia is undecided about what she wants to be after graduation. But with her ability to win and her enthusiasm, she'll easily find her place in life. I-lorold I. Fronkfort Meet Harvey Weitls right hand man! Who hasn't seen t'Frankie behind the counter at Weit's Newstand? On Sunday afternoons, Puddin can be seen-after the dust clears-at the auto races when they're in season at Williams Grove. Besides auto racing he follows professional football, baseball, bas- ketball, and hockey. Helping Mr. Lesher, he served as ticket taker at our home football games. Keep pluggin, Puddin! ' Eloine Groce Foke Elaine, an attractive blonde, is another of the original First grade crowd. Elaine is noted for her fun-loving spirit. Her hearty laughter can usually be heard in the classrooms and halls. But Elaine has her serious' moments, too. Her favorite pastime is borrowing library books. Not to be overlooked is her artistic ability which has led her to choose a career as a commercial artist. F., Vg ?f , f William J. Frankfort Most of us will remember Bill for two things, his astounding vocabulary and his exceptional ability in the field of sciences. Having accepted the position of Editor-in-Chief of the CLOISTERETTE, he has done an unsurpassed job -of editing for the class of '48. Other extra-curricular activities on his agenda were Riiie Club and Dramatics Club. Not being satisiiied Marion Joyce Fry Characterized by her dark hair and snappy wardrobe, Marian has been one of us ever since eighth grade. Marian has proved her musical ability by accompanying the Girls' Glee Club and also by joining the Mixed Chorus. In her senior year she took over the position of co-leader of the Swiss Hag- swingers. Her beautiful alto voice was certainly ap- preciated by the Madrigals. We are sure Marian will be prominent in the musical world. with the extent of his program, he fathered 'intra- mural pingpong. Frequently referred to as the Master-Mind, Bill pushed elections, a year book, and Dramatics Club spot lights around like a sea- soned authority on a variety of subjects. Phyllis J. Gerhord Popularity, intelligence, qualities readily recognized in Phyllis. Besides get- ting good enough marks to place her name high on the honor roll, Phyllis also found time to serve as a member of the CLOISTERETTE staff, and as associate editor on the Mountaineer, This brown- eyed brunette worked faithfully as secretary of our class in both our junior and senior years. Phyllis, a member of the color guard in the band, was seen out in front in all the parades. Her scholastic ability and personality will aid her in her career of nursing. and dependability are W 19 .Qi a 5 NX Isobello Getz ball games, rooting for on our Mountaineer future are undecided, potential energy she'll map.

Getzie's plans for the but we know with all her surely put Ephrata on the Leon J. Givler Rah! Another touchdown! What a beautiful catch that was! Yes, that was none other than Leon Givler, co-captain, on the receiving end of another com- pleted pass. One of the foremost athletes of our class, Leon not only has shined on the gridiron, but also on the basketball Hoor. Hailing from the Bergstrasse School, he and his brother came to Ephrata to join us in our freshman year. If Tiny keeps shooting the basketball into that basket he's bound to reach the top. of the Givler twins. Many people have been fooled in this way by Lloyd and his brother who daily have pedaled their bicycles to Ephrata High from their home south of Ephrata. Even though Lloyd is the smaller of the twins, being six foot four inches, he packs plenty of pep into any game, whether it's basketball or football. Lloyd and Leon are almost inseparable. If they stick together, they'll be a win- ning team in whatever work they choose. V Z ?7 2 Gordon Eugene Gockley This pleasant, sunny-dispositioned chap has helped many an English class out of a tight spot with his knowledge of the current best-sellers, Broadway productions, etc., when Die Lehrerin wanted an immediate, but correct answer. In addition to serv- ing as literary editor on the Mountaineer:' staff, Gordon fit well into his position as a feature writer on the CLOISTERETTE staff. His many abilities will serve him well. Corroll R. Good Often we in Carroll's home room have been amused by this fun-loving fellow's antics. But Peep has his moments of seriousness such as when he plays his hot trumpet with the high school band. He's a familiar Figure in the first line of trumpets of the band. Whether he chooses to be a comedian or a musician, the Class of '48 knows he will make the grade. ' Joyce E. Groves This petite miss Cwith her lovely wardrobel is the envy of our class. Her Winsome smile has made more than one masculine heart do flip-flops. She has contributed much to our band with her alto sax. Joyce plans to enter the field of nursing when she has graduated from E. H. S. mer 21 it S svsWv William D. Groff Lin came from Ephrata R. D. in ninth grade. He is known among us for his quietness and willing- ness to cooperate. Having finished his fourth year at Ephrata High, he is another one of those out-of- towners who has faithfully gone back and forth from his home to the school on the school bus special, Best of luck to an enterprising fellow from the Class of '48. Eorle H. Grover marie has been one of the pure products oi the hzpnrata School system. lt one were hunting tor the ideal product or this extensive organization, Earle would undoubtably be unanimously elected to the post. Always willing to give valuable aid where studies are concerned, besides showing an unusual talent at the piano and in dramatics, this youth has proved to be a valuable, asset to our class. Hav- ing made up his mind, two long years ago, Earle is determined to break into the classical music world. 1 Grubie, Dosh, Sonny, Dubs, -all these names refer to one of the most sincere fellows who appeared at E. H. S. in September for a grinding senior year. Not that Dosh was new here, for he has been frequenting the halls of Ephrata High ever since seventh grade. This son of the great outdoors, lover of mankind, and all around good fellow has always amazed us with his slow humor and amazing philosophies. We know that he will surely reach the top in any profession he chooses to follow. QQ an - 1-- - im... I James R. Hackman 'Whoosh -there he goes again on his Indian Who? Why, Jim Hackman, of course. Jim has always been seen throughout the year spinning around the school on that beloved motorcycle. This fellow from Lincoln is well ' liked and is considered a good guy by both the fellows and the girls. Jim came all the way fronf Lincoln to help supply us with a top-notch class. Seemingly shy and of quiet manner one can sometimes Hnd a trace of mischief and ex citement in his behavior. We all know that Jim will succeed in any venture he tackles. Wilmer E. Hall Hall is definitely an Akronian in the highest degree. Some teachers say that you can spot one a mile away.', Milker arrived in E. H, S. in the '43 invasion and has been a vital cog for notch! in the wheels of industry of the Eph.rata Brain Factoryl' ever since. He spends much of his spare time in classes, but his main occupation is helping to keep order on the Akron bus. Diana J. l-laller Dody, as we all know her, has been with us for all of our twelve years. Whether it be basketball baseball, swimmingg or any other kind of athletics she will be there either taking an active part or cheering enthusiastically from the side lines She has been a faithful member of our Band, 3 member of Dramatics, Club, and has often entertained us with her tap dancing. Always ready for lots of fun and au good time, Dody will certainly make a peppy gym teacher., ..N9-- Jeonne E. Houck Jeanne, who will always be remembered for her blonde, wavy hair, came to us from Bergstrasse. This very popular miss proved she had ability by taking a prominent part in planning our prom and serving on the Student Council in her junior year. As a senior Jeanne joined Mixed Chorus and became co- leader of the Swiss flag swingers. She has an envi- able disposition which has secured for her a host of friends of both sexes. Q3 Horvey Z. Hersh VVhen he first 'oined our ranks in school in fifth Noncy J. Helter Nancy is that popular, blue-eyed, wavy haired sax player who came from Lititz in third grade. As one of the highest ranking members of our class, both socially and scholastically, she has proved her- self an industrious and vivacious companion. Not only is she a whiz at math, but in addition to be- ing a member of the Band, she has been a member of Mixed Chorus, the Mountaineer', and CLOIS- TERETTE staffs and has very ably served as Sec- retary of the Dramatics Club. J grade, Harvey brought with him a considerable amount of shyness, which he kept for a number of years. While he may still seem shy on the surface, all who know him are ready to confess that he gets his share of fun and sometimes more. His scholastic aptitude running high in the field of science, he proved a valuable asset to our ,physics and chemistry classes as well as to our whole senior class. host 24 Hurry up, we'll be late! Whenever you that expression, you can be sure it refers to Lou. Nevertheless, between talking and rushing, 'iHessie found time to be in our band for six years and to join Mixed Chorus and Dramatics In addition to excelling in extra-curricular activ she has been a good student, especially in German. With her friendly disposition she has Won a FM, Mory Lou Hess hear Mary long Club. ities, of friends. It will aid her in her chosen career, nursing. I-Iorold N. Hicks Hicks is one of that well-known clan of individ- uals who hails from the busy little community known as Akron on yonder hill. He enriched our school with his presence in his freshman year Cwhich will go down in the history of E. H. S. as a crucial yearb. I'm sure that his classmates, especially the feminine portion, will agree that their education wouldn't have been complete without Harold. Jeon V. I-Iirneisen We ,all know that old saying about good things comingwin small packages. Well, that certainly must have been written for Jean. Jean joined us in our first day of learning and has been sharing our joys and sorrows ever- since. Although shy and reserved on the outside, Jean is really one of the best pals any classmate can have. She shares a smile with every- one and is always willing to lend a helping hand. l i9 '- QS Ccnrl R. Hollinger Coming from Lincoln, Carl joined our ranks at E. H. S. in his freshman year. Although at first he may appear to be shy and quiet, he manages to get his share of laughter and fun. His main interest lies in the field of mechanics. When he is not seen studying, he may often be found taking apart or putting together some sort of gadget. We all know that when he came to our school we gained a true friend and a worthy classmate. Donald W. Howett Donnie, the future physical education instruc- tor in E. H. S., has already started toward that am- bition by placing his major interests in sports. Be- sides being co-captain of the football team, he was the star of his class on the gridiron where he often carried that ball into payoff territory. Those passes of his will not soon be forgotten by football fans. However, he has shown just as much capability on the 'basketball floor where he really put action into a game and started things going. J. Bruce Huffordg y t'Huff,,' who is one of the brains of science and math in E. H. S., is a native Ccivilizedj of Akron, and is noted for his questions and arguments. He will disagree with teachers and textbooks on every possible point and occasion and is one of the origin- ators of the theory Never let schoolwork interfere with your education. However, we must add in all justice that Bruce has ability to attempt even the most difficult task. . ' . Q6 If W 2 Leon J. Hummer That noise you have just heard was a group of fellows laughing at the latest joke Hummer just told them! He may often be seen driving to school with a host of his friends packed into his car. One of his main interests is collecting stampsg but sports is a close runner-up, for he is always well quoted on the latest scores. He was a great success in our school, just as he will be in the school of life as a William J. Hyman Coming alll the way from Lincoln to E. H. S., Hyman can usually be found at one of two places -either driving around school in a '46 maroon Chrysler, or at band practice. Since his major in- terest lies in the field of music, he has long been a member of the bandg and we are all ready to agree that he can really handle that trombone of his. He has contributed to our class in many ways, just as he will contribute to the business world when he business manager. becomes that business' administrator. l Wendell W. Keller This slender fellow has become a part of us with his seemingly totally inert attitude towards school and an equally vigorous attitude for sports. Windy will fall into a fit of laughter upon the slightest pun ,and remain thus for an indefinite length of time. Seriously though, he has a personality which we're sure will enable him to follow that particular path of life which he chooses. ...mi as i XS Robert M. Kemp Taxi! Taxi! How synonymous that familiar call was with Bob,,' who in our Junior year provided many a lift Cfor a nominal fee of course! to the Hwearyfl This is only one of the many ways in which Bohn showed his genius. He was one of the top members of the Rifle Club and also a member of the Dramatics Club and football team. Through fine scholastic record and willingness to participate in extra-curricular activities, Bob has proved that he is capable of following his chosen career, medicine. W. Lolvlorr Kopp This dashing young playwright has been an ardent member of the Dramatics Club in as much as he has written his own play. Music seems to be his fanpggk hoyvever, since die has long been a member of the Mixed Chorus and Boys, Quartet. In addition to this -he is the special news editor on the Moun- taineer staff and feature writer on the CLOISTER- ETTE staff. In view of his high scholastic standing and his many extra-curricular achievements, we see a brilliant future for LeMarr. i Richord Kreider An innocent look and a sheepish grin are. two phrases which describe Richard to the N th degree. He is Mt. Airy's contribution to E. H. S. and a very happy-go-lucky contribution at that. This gay youth possesses the quality of being able to take as well as administer a joke. He has a serious side also which is demonstrated by his ability on the rifle range. Richard is undecided .as to his future, but we're sure that aperson with so keen a sense of humor cannot go long without success. 28- Marion Moe Kurtz This commercial student joined our class in ninth grade, bringing with her a dauntless scholastic and athletic record. Always ready for a she's there when the fun begins and is when it ends. When Kurtzie's time is participating in Student Council activities, or working for the CLOISTERETTE, you can usually find her dashing home with a truckload of friends. F., 2 W , l Jock R. Kurtz An abundance of jokes, an overflowing reserve of laughter, a short G. I. haircut, a ,46 maroon Buick, and a host of friends-put them all together and you have our own Kurtz Besides demonstrat- ing his capability on the gridiron, Jack has displayed his scholastic aptitude in the classroom as well as on the CLOISTERETTE staff. By serving on various committees, he has helped to make our Prom as Well as other parties a grand success. We feel sure our class could not be complete without this worthy member. gay time, still there not spent in sports, B. Jerome Leomon Jerry, as quiet as a mouse in the classroom and the life of the party at our social functions, is possessed with great musical talent. By playing a baritone in the band, as Well as a French horn in the orchestra, he has excellently displayed this out- standing faculty. Although Jerry entered the Ephrata schools only in Ninth grade, he has become so much a part of us that our class wouldn't be complete without himg for he is truly a friend to all of us. Q? Kenneth Leisey t'Kenny will always be remembered by the class Cand the teachers tool for his unique answers. We often have been sent into laughter by his ridiculous replies of all types. Kenneth did a fine job in repre- senting the class in the band and has taken some subjects which are very often considered too difficult by most students. We all know that he will not be discouraged easily and will work till his goal is attained. Q9 Junior Luckenbill Bang! Boom! Bang! Crash! When this noise is Robert Lesher Lesh, as he is best known to all of us, is one of the veteran varsity players of our class in both football and basketball. He was very often seen talking with someone in study hall. He has been with the class of 48', from the second grade until the present. We know that in future years Bob will be successful, and the class of 48', will be proud to say, He was a grand classmate in 'Frata' High? heard one can be sure it's Lucky coming down the hall. Junior joined our class during our first year in Junior High. Since then he has gained many friends because of his very jolly disposition and pleasing personality. Junior did a fine job in representing our class in the band by playing the largest instrument, the base horn. A career of landscape architecture has been his choice. .M W, , I-loword Ludwig Howard has been with us since the beginning of our school life and since then has won many friends. Howard was always out of school on the first day of November-hunting! Hunting is his favorite sport. This contributes to the fact that he has been a prominent member of the Rifle Club in his last few years. His ability to finish what he begins will be an Fred Lutz 'Tritzi' is the somewhat shy lad who commutes daily from Broad street Cwhat a distancelj In spite of this, he is usually the last one to get to school. Fred is usually seen doing bookkeeping, that is, if he can borrow a pen from somebody. His jolly disposi- tion and pleasing smile have won him many friends. Fredis eagerness for study will surely pay dividends. asset to him in his future work. Lillion M. Lutz Lillian is one commercial student who will have no trouble acquiring a position, for she does com- mendable work in all her classes. Who wouldn't be delighted to have her well-groomed appearance and cheerful disposition around him. However, she is never too engrossed in her work to enjoy 3 good laugh. In addition to being a member of the Student Council of '48, she does splendid work in Dramatics Club. She will always be remembered for her fun- loving spirit and charming smile. .39 C Harold Martin Harold hails from Murrell, that small community busies himself Wlth just east of Ephrata, where he I . his own business of bicycle repairing. In aCld1t10I1 to being a member of the Student Council and the CLOISTERETTE staff, Harold is one of those who rank on top scholastically. He is usually seen pour- ing over some book and is the only person in the senior class who braved four years of Latin. In view of his previous high achievements both in the scholastic and mechanical field, we predict a bright future for Harold. Rheso Mortzoll Tall, dark, and handsome is a perfect descrip- tion of Rhesa. He is also characterized and respected for his pleasing personality, benevolent smile, and eagerness to work even though he is often disturbed by girls for does he disturb them?D. Rhesa is to be well remembered by all his classmates for his ex- cellent contributions to the band in his skillful play- ing of the cornet. Rhesa is bound to slide that cornet into the foreground of the musical world. The Big Mac, without doubt, has a personality like nothing you've ever seen before Che could prob- ably be classed as The Origin of the Species D. Without his amazingly clever side remarks, many classes would have been too dull to bear ibut the time to really enjoy his scents of humor was in one of the frequent sessions after schoolj. In his free time he managed to establish quite a scholastic rec- ord Cgood, that isj. We are sure that Bill, especially, will reach the top Cand withouta ladderl. 32 Violo Miller This tiny lass has come a long way with the class of '48. When first glancing at Viola you get an impression of a studious girl who hasn't much to say. But after knowing her, you find she is a fluent conversationalist and an all-around girl. Viola has taken all commercial subjectsg and by her persist- ence she has attained her goal. W F.. Janet Miller On a sunny morning in the beginning of the end, Janet made her presence Hrst known to Frata High. She journeyed to us from Reading and brought with her a heart-warming smile and happy-go-lucky outlook on life. Her well-groomed appearance and sunny smile has drawn us all to her. She has chosen the conimercial field as her course in high school After graduation she wishes to continue as a stenog rapher. Her amiable disposition and her eificiency Won't let her fail. Naomi I. Mohler Toot', has been with us all through her school years and can usually be seen reading a library book. Friendliness and dependability are two nouns which portray our Toot When a crowd of girls is heard laughing vigorously, you may be sure she is among them. From our knowledge of her, we know she will work until she has succeeded in her chosen field, nursing. Tw? , sw. . Horolcl Moyer Neat, isn't he, says everyone about our Harold. Yes, he is one of the neatest and best dressed boys in our class. This is truly a characteristic of which to be proud. This congenial chap is undecided about a future vocation. He would like to enter the busi- ness world as a typist. At present he is employed as a clerk in a local hardware store. Whether Harold retains a position as salesman or becomes a speed typist, he's bound to have a bright future. Edgar is the official clown of matter what occasion presents itself, a comment to keep his classmates aisles. This clown of renownv is a sports and is also quite a singer. He bass in the Mixed Chorus and has various other choral groups as well. the National Guard for three years. Jcme LoRue Peiffer Good things come in small packages, was writ- ten just for our Janie.,' Sober one minute, happy- go-lucky the next, describes her to the T, Janie's incessant chattering may usually be heard in the classrooms and halls. Her jolly, sincere manner has won for her a host of friends. Jane's pleasing person- ality will always win her friends. 33 Edgor C. Needles our class. No he always has rolling in the great lover of is a prominent participated in Because Ed is undecided as to a definite vocation, he has enlisted in 34 George W. Pfoutz I don't believe that anyone could have escaped having some dealing with Georgie during his five years in our fair school. He has been in many extra-curricular activities, but his favorite seems to have been mischief, Nobody knows George's specific location at any particular time, but it's easy enough to locate him. All that's necessary is to find the source of the most riotous noises resounding through 'Kthe immortal halls. George would probably be most successful and happy as a 'Ksynthetic grem- lin, but he is bound to succeed in a career of busi- ness administration. Jeonette Plosterer Jeanette joined our ranks in eighth grade. Un- assuming and shy, she appears to be one of the quieter members of our class. But learn to know her better, and you will discover she talks and laughs continuously. Study halls lost their dullness when Jeanette was sitting nearby to entertain her class- mates. Jeanette plans to enter the profession of nursing. .We were in twelfth grade before this charming young lady joined us. She journeyed from Manheim to attend our school and brought with her a pleas- ing smile and a happy-go-lucky outlook on life. She can constantly be seen leading a cheerful group of girls in conversation. . vs... 1 Nm X S Robert Reidenboch Red has played an active part in our class dur- ing the last few years. This red haired, freckled fellow has been associated with the Rifle Club and has shared in both the victories and defeats of that organization. The carrot top on this fellow is really a thing of beauty and is the epitome of his whole character and sense of humor. Many a laugh has issued from home room concerning Red's latest escapades. With his red hair waving, Robert can't help but Hash to the top of his chosen trade, wood- working. A J. Williovm Rohrboch Bill is one member of the class we shall all remember as a true scholar and a hard worker. Being basketball timekeeper, Associate Editor of the Mountaineer and also of the CLOISTERETTE, and being one of the scholastic wonders of our class, have been phases of his labors in Ephrata High School. If anyone finds himself in need of help, Bill is always ready and willing to assist to the utmost. His quiet, calm assurance have helped maintain that necessary balance in the senior class. 35 Lowrence T. Rice Y Lawrence is that lanky youth who came to Eph- rata from Bergstrasse. He prefers studies to sports, although he manages to get his share of recreation. This happy-go-lucky lad enters into the spirit of things, especially where an anecdote is concerned. Lawrence has his future definitely planned, for he is going to enlist in the Army Air Corps. So when you hear that plane zooming by, you'll know that it is one of Ephrata's own sons. 5 W ., A ......

V fc 'Mg' D. Lucille Rollmon Lucille, who is one of our superior commercial students, has been with us for most of our twelve years. Even though she was usually seen studying, she found time for a few extra-curricular activities. Lucille was in both the Mixed Chorus and the Dramatics Club doing a fine job in each organization. Although she appears to be quiet and reserved, she is quite different when you become acquainted with her. Glcaclys lrene Romig Gladys, who is one of our commercial students, became one of us when she entered E. H. S. in ninth grade. Because of her sunny disposition, this blonde, blue-eyed lass has smiled her way into the hearts of all of us, Gladys certainly is one person who is always willing to take part in any plan of merriment, and her hearty laughter may often be heard in the halls. Walter has been with us for twelve years and has always been a true friend to all of us. There is always a lot of fun when he is in the crowd. His favorite pastime is hunting. He is always eager for the first of November to come rolling around. Al- though only mildly enthusiastic about his studies you can always depend on Walter when there is any work to be done. v L-lk? X W w :QQ Cloyton Royer This well-known, smiling-faced, jocular fellow is one of the essential cogs in the great senior wheelf' He has been with our class since the time when we were all young and innocent Cthere was such a time whether you remember it or notj. It seems that times have changed since then and so has Clate g the only time heis happy now is when he has some fiendish prank up his sleeve. Another of his dominant characteristics in his political ability. He believes Cas most seniors dob that collaboration is the best policy and hopes in time to come back to E. H. S. and organize a party in the junior high. Doris, with her pleasing personality and con- D. Jeon Rudy Jean is a girl who takes life as it comes. Al- though she appears quiet and reserved, we know she is just the opposite. She has a carefree manner and is seldom serious. Since she joined us in fourth grade, Jean has always spent most of her time chat- tering with her neighbor. She has distinguished her- self as one of our better commercial students. tinuous chatter, has graced our presence throughout our school days. Her witty remarks have been the cause of many an outburst of laughter. One of our better artists, Doris has exercised her talents as a member of the Mountaineer,' and CLOISTERETTE staffs. She served as president of the Dramatics Club in her senior year. In the commercial course she has been a capable student. Always smiling, always well- dressed, always a friend-these phrases are synony- mous with Doris. W, Mary Kathryn Sauder Mary Kathryn, who attended Bergstrasse School before coming to E. H. S., certainly is an asset to our class. Kass has contributed her musical ability to the Mixed Chorus. She also served faithfully in the special units of the band. Kass, who is a whiz at German, is always ready, willing, and able to help any of her classmates in this subject, We who know her Well will never forget her studious- ness and keen interest in her work. Helen I. Schoermberger Although Helen's stature may be small OUT school would not be complete without this addition to our class from our rival, Lititz. Helen is an able commercial student and has shown her ability as a worthy and capable typist for the Mountaineer,' staff. Helen never talks too much, but iss very friendly when you get to know her. Blueieyes and blonde hair are Helen's main attractions. Helen is planning her career in the clerical field. Murray M Schwartz Shoot if you must this old grey head, but spare my 'Mountaineer', he said. This is for definitely should bel the motto of our Editor in Chief of the Mountaineer.', A job such as this would be enough to keep any 'tnormalu person busy, but Curly Csee snapshot pagej has to be diiferentg hels also treasurer of the senior class, manager of the football and basketball teams, and business manager of the CLOISTERETTE staff. In addition, his grades are the envy of many a senior. Here is a fellow who is so buoyant he doesn't need the ladder to success. '79 39 , Joann Faye Starnm Joann, who joined us in ninth grade, accom- panies the Lincolnites to school each day. Although she seems rather quiet on the surface, she enjoys a good joke and can hold her own in having a good time. Joann's talents are centered in the commercial world. It is in this field that Joann hopes to work after her graduation. Benjamin F. Stark What a voice! What a character! What a smile! What is this, a quiz? It might be but all the answers would be Ben. Among his diversified accomplish- ments are Prom vocalist, rifle marksman, member of the big fouri' Cboys' quartetb, and one of the new Madrigals. Take personality plus, cheerfulness, character, and.a voice like Bing or Frankie, shake well, add some brains and the result will be an exact replica of Ben. His success in his life's voca- tion will be boosted considerably by these facts. G. Arlene Strauss Pud,' can easily be recognized by her flaming red hair. She is a dependable commercial student who has devoted her time at E. H. S. to this course. f'Pud's many different hair-do's have always been the envy of the other girls of our class. Living at Brickerville, 'fPud had to ride to school every day on the bus. As a commuter Pud will be remem- bered as a necessary link in the class chain. 40 i 4'2- ff JVA Clorence E. Sweigort Did you ever see that fellow with the omni- present smile? That's our Clarence. In the four years that we have known him, we have learned that this youth possesses the much esteemed trait of honesty. This is truly a characteristic of which to be proud. Clarence has his future definitely planned, for he is going to enter the most blessed of all vocations- the Christian ministry. With his pleasant disposition, fine sense of humor, and good character, he is destined to have all the happiness the world has to offer. Melvin R. Sweigort Mel Calias Swig J is one of the top ranking commercial students with a personality to match Cand such cute wavy hair-right, girls?J. He is one of the riflemen of Ephrata High and also holds the position of typist Ca mixture of some honor and lots of hard workj on the CLOISTERETTE staff. Mel's ambition is to become a carpenter and we feel sure that if he tries, he can become the future John Lf' of the carpenter's union. Glodys M. Todd This attractive, dark-haired girl came to our class from the Akron School in ninth grade. As an active member of the Frata Footlightersv in her Junior year she has displayed her dramatic ability by participating in several of the school's produc- tions. Gladys has a wonderful personality plus the ability to make friends easily. The Mixed Chorus benefited by her excellent voice. We are sure that with Gladys' attitude and eagerness to get ahead she will become a fine secretary. -H- X NY M. Jane Trefethern Hailing from Brickerville, Jane joined our ranks in her freshman year as a commercial student. Since then she has proved her ability as a typist for the Mountaineer.', This blonde senior' is Well liked by everyone because of her good nature. No matter where she is or how hard a task she is performing, Jane's smiles are always her prominent character- istics. Berne rd P. Vol .enweider Bernard is probably best classified as an aca- demic student usually seen with a fiendish glint in his eye Cwhich isn't too unusual because he is a firm believer in the saying We,re all fiends together J and a cheerful smile on his face. He's one of our brother sufferers who has been with us since the early years of our mutual confinement. Although he says he's a good little boy, he takes on an entirely different aspect when you get to know him and becomes quite a joker. Ability to work hard coupled with a liking for mechanics are two factors which will enable Bernard to be a good machinist. Eugene W. Wonnelr Eugene is one of the quiet, modest members of our class-until you get to know him. Then look out! He's a barrel of dynamite packed into a solid phy- sique with a sly smile as a fuse. When he winds up and lets go wholeheartedly, he always scores a possible even on the riHe team when perfect scores really count. He, like many of us, is an academic student who chose the hard road in high school. 42 W, Betty Jone Weir Betty is one of our commercial students who traveled to E. H. S. from Hopeland every day. Al- though she seems to be on the quiet side when you first meet her, you soon discover her to be lots of fun. Of course, Betty is not always seen studying. She is very active in the sports World and is noted Erlo Moe Welt Did you hear a 101141 giggling noise Coming from the back of the room? If you did, Erla could cer- tainly be found in the group- Erla has her sferlolfs moments, toog and she is one of the best typists in the class. Ample proof of her typing ability lies in the fact that she was chosen as a typist f0I' the 'tMountaineer. Her winning ways and appealing laughter add to her interesting character. 1 I chiefly for her basketball and baseball ability. Ruthe E. Wenger Ruthie, who is characterized by her small stat- ure, dark hair, and Winning smile, became a mem- ber of our class in eighth grade. She has contributed her alto voice to the Mixed Chorus for several years and also has been a member of the Dramatics Club during her senior year. As a commercial student Ruthie is one of the best. She should go far in the business world. Her pleasing way has won a place in the hearts of all of us. XWX N RX XQXR X, X XQYQ, Richard S. Will His talents are many, his friends uncountable, his personality unmatchable Cand his Ford is greenl. Dick, who was the Mount's star end, is the pos- sessor of the sticky fingers that were so important to our football team's passing attack this year. He also found time to serve as president of the Student Council and artist for the Mount:-xineeri' and CLOISTERETTE. Scientifically speaking, Will plus his chosen career of liberal arts yields happiness plus success. Steno Roserie Withers New Holland contributed this worthy member E. Ann Winters HLancaster's gift to the fellows of Ephrata Highv is about the most fitting description we know for this vivacious senior miss. She was imported from Lancaster in '46 and seemed to become one of the bunch immediately. She could be found at any '47 football or basketball game, providing inspiration as one of the senior high cheer leaders, which are so vital to any team's success. of the class in our junior year. Stena is always ready for fun, can be serious if necessary, and is an all- around good friend. Recognized as one who is always ready to help, she is often called on by her friends to lend a helping hand. One of Stena's interests lies in the field of sports and she was been active in baseball, basketball and soccer. We feel sure we can depend on her to do anything she sets out to do. A +L. WZ W' 2 Chorles Wolf 'tCharlie first graced the doors of E. H. S. four years ago, coming from the neighboring metropolis of Akron. Charlie appeared to be a slow, easy-going individual, but not for long! After setting the class on Fire with his high scholastic rating, this Akronite found himself writing for the Mountaineer and the CLOISTERETTE, besides knocking off bullseyes for the rifle team. Showing qualities of popular lead- ership, Charlie has twice held a position on the Student Council. Not knowing definitely what he wants to do, Charles is a sure bet to triumph in his chosen fieldg for, as saying goes in the senior class, No one beats the Wolf. Shirley F. Wolfe For precisely twelve years Shirley has joined many of us in our classrooms. To a newcomer she might appear quiet and independent, but underneath her quietness she is a lively and fun-loving girl. Whenever a friend is in need of help, Shirley is al- ways willing to lend a hand. Her charming manner- isms and congenial smile are only two of her many outstanding assets. Look out! Clear the Akron to Ephrata highway! Here comes that '35 Chevvy down the hill under full throttle. The car has made it with seconds to spare and after everyone piles out-the engineer steps down. Who is it? None other than Hundt Zimmerman, speedy fullback of the E. H. S. grid team. He's mighty in spirit, if not in stature. His scholastic and athletic abilities combined to make him a very necessary cog in the wheels of E. H. S. las., 45 SENIOR CLASS WILL To the Class of 1949, we, the Class of 1948, do solemnly and in sane mind bequeath this, our last will and testament.

TIME 1953 Q Flash . . .K The research division of the Ephrata High School is at this very moment just completing what is expected to be the scientihc marvel of the millenium. We switch you now to our special correspondent in the underground lab buried deep in the Ephrata Mountains. Greetings friends of the scientific audience! This is Bill Rohrbach, your on-the- spot news coverage man, bringing you a special televised broadcast of the developments at the Ephrata High Research Lab. CPlease view your screen at a distance through dark colored binoculars, as we are not sure as to just exactly what will occur when the final adjustments are administered to the apparatus consisting of miles of wire and myriads of other complicated t'guppies, the exact construction of which is known only to the scientists themselves. This is it! The settings of the FUTURESCOPE are on the class of 1948 in the year 1980 A. D. As I look about me I see many familiar faces of the class of 1948 who are nervously awaiting the moment when they will know precisely what the future holds for them. The blurred image is clearing and it reveals a beautiful structure. Upon further examination it proves to be the Cloister Cathedral, erected adjacent to the site of the Historic Cloisters by the McHolland Skyscraper Erection Company, with funds donated by the multimillionaire, Harold Martin, inventor of the recent innovation on the Kiddie Car, the atomic propelled Sky Cycle. Howeverfpermit us to mention that we now see Mr. Martin a broken man due to a 'islightv one and one-half billion dollar error on the part of his personal accountant, George Pfautz, who is internationally known for his coherent handling of money matters. George is now a trusted accountant for San Quentin. The last familiar face on this scene is that of Gordon Gockley, D. D., emerging from the Ionic orifice of the cathedral followed by his choir under the direction of the former Marian Fry, the wife of the world renown concert pianist and vocalist, Roberto von Beisswanger, who is now top billing at LaMarr Kopp's Ephrapolitan Opera House. As the dials automatically turn, we see a panorama of the business sector. We are confronted by the famous Kurtz building, built in honor of John Kurtz, whose civil engineering project the AlaskaaRussia bridge, known as the missing link of the continents, made possible intercontinental highway trade. Inside the gigantic building we see the ohices of Doris Sahm and Ann Winters, dress designers for the Parisian models, Gladys Todd and Diana Haller, employed by Joanne Eberly, the owner and operator of The Parisian Model Agency. Adjoining this is the office of Richard Bear, dentist, who with the assistance of his nurse, Elaine Fake, is performing an extraction on Harold Moyer. Next on the list is the beauty salon of Murray Swartz, who together with his understudies, Gordon I-Iertzog and Edgar Needles, is working on the screen personalities, Ruthe Wenger, Ruth Cox and Jeanne Hauck. Attorneys-at-Law, Hicks, Hufford and Hall, whose motto is, If you don't like Hicks or Hufford, go to Hall, occupy the space adjacent to Luckenbill's Photo Studio. Also in this building are Jerome Leaman, detec- tive, Phyllis Gerhard, counselor for the Lovelorn, and the Ephrata-Akron Suburban Subway Co., under the authority of Carroll Good. On the company's oiiice staff are Janet' Miller, Helen Schoenberger, Stena Withers and Josephine Eckman. On the roof we see Clarence Sweigart and Harold Frankforfs Jumping Jitney Helicopter Taxie Serv- ice. Descending to the basement we find, next to the room of Richard Kreider, the head janitor, Clate Royer's Rathskeller. Featured here as entertainment are the Weit sisters, Betty and Erla. As the scene moves uptown, we approach the corner drugstore owned and operated by Floyd Dissinger and his business partner, Lillian Lutz. As we pass the drugstore the ambulance driven by William Hyman comes into view and the dials twist madly to follow it to its destination, the Community Hospital. Once there, we see Jane Trefethern, and Shirley Wolfe removed from the ambulance, the victims of a collision occurring while enroute to Mohler's Super Market. The superintendent-in-chief, Bob Kemp, to- gether with his staff of nurses, Jeanette Plasterer, Betty Buchen, Jean Hirneisen, Isa- W .5 bella Getz and Ardenia Edwards, arrives on the scene. CNeedless to say Bob enjoys his vocationb. Pat Eberly holds the position of chief technician of the hospital, The prize patient is Kenneth Leisey, prominent politician, suffering slight injuries Cbroken neck, fractured skull, fractured appendages, etc.J from an encounter with over enthused auto- graph hunters. Head of the psychiatric ward, known as the 'tkernel of the nuts is Paul Bender, who together with chief straight-jacket specialist, Ted Dietrich, handles a goodly portion of the guests Special Uguesti' in this ward is Bernard Vollenweider, noted author, who is just finishing a series of Trig books, Located for safety's sake near the hospital is Fred Lutz's Barber Shop, better known as Ye Olde Clippe Joint? After the digit mangler Cmanicuristb Faye Burkholder releases you, you are definitely ready for Freddy. Located on the other side of the hospital, for convenience's sake, we have Martzall's Mortuarium with Lawrence Rice as head cadaverer carter. Getting back to town we are astounded to behold the indoor beach proprietor, the Turkish Bath expert, Earle Grover. Also on the staff are Eugene Wanner, Swedish Massage specialist who firmly believes that a friend in knead is a friend indeed, and Gladys Romig, women's physical contour specialist. Main attraction at the beach is Yvonne Burkholder, international swimming champion and bathing beauty. Among the notables on the beach are Harvey Hersh, retired agriculturalistg Harold Ludwig, national trap shooting champion, and Melvin Sweigart, owner of Sweigart Lumber Mills, Inc. The next point of attraction is the Givler Stadium in Central Park, where the annual game between the Old Timers and the High School team is now in progress. In the starting lineup for the Old Timers are Leon and Lloyd Givler, Jay Dissler, Donald Howett, Robert Lesher, Loren Zimmerman and Walter Root. Ray Grube is the referee while Wendall Keller acts as manager. Providing inspiration in the cheering section are Joyce Graves, Nancy Helter and Mary Lou Hess. From the stadium we see the colossal sign on the roof of the Scandalous Times building, a newspaper edited by William Groff with Harold Dunheimer as printer and Lucille Rollman as linotype operator, flashing the message Come to the concert, tonight at Symphony Hall. The FUTURESCOPE, being almost human, takes the hint and we speed up Main Street to the hall past a Transit Lines bus driven by Marian Kurtz. The concert is under the baton of Professor Ronaldo Aires and boasts such famous personalities as Mary Katherine Sauder on the violin, Ben Stark, baritone, and James Hackman, monotone. The house lights dim and Robert Reidenbach, the piano tuner, makes his debut by performing a last minute check on the harpsichord. At the intermission we see in the boxes such well-known society figures as Myrleen Bingeman, Lorraine Brugger, Ruth Burkholder, Jane Peiffer, Arlene Strauss and Joan Plasterer. Also present is Jean Rudy, the New York hat designer. Representing the male population is the renown scientist and atom cruncher, William Frankfort, whose latest discovery is the element Nixeon, of the atomic nurnber 0 and consisting of a vacuum nucleus with two empty electron positions revolving around it. After the concert the FUTURESCOPE follows the crowd to Joan Drybread's caravansary, just off the square where people congregate. Alice Donahue is acting as dietician and Carl Hollinger as chef. Through the crowd we seethe two stock market geniuses, Leon Hummer and June Corl, discussing business over a bottle of essence a la hamburger. Qthey have ulcersj. At the next table is Richard Will, the chief designer and owner of the Will Plane and Auto Co., makers of the Will-go and the Will-Hy. It is said that in his younger days he was inHuenced Cin one way or anotherj by the design of a certain Ford. THE FUTURESCOPE swirls madly, it has missed someone. Who is it? Where is it? What is it? After minutes of frenzied searching, the screen produces a clear image. But wait, it is the labyrinth of tunnels and rooms that once was the Ephrata High Re- search Lab. After a brief time the object of the FUTURESCOPE search is uncovered. It is the HERMIT PHILOSOPHER, Charles Wolf, whose only comment is, Give back those covers. It's cold! Now that the horrible truth is known, the scientists have decided to destroy the FUTURESCOPE on the basis that it shouldn't happen to a dog.

Part of the increased enrollment was because of the closing of the Akron High School. At this early period our class was already well represented in the various clubs and on the teams. Soon another year had elapsed and we found ourselves back in the same familiar surroundings with the exception of a group of newcomers from adjoining areas, causing an additional increase in our enrollment. As Sophomores, we soon acquired a new feel- ing of importance which we displayed when we started having social functions of our own, among which was a well-received Latin party. Donnie Howett, Bob Kemp, Jack Kurtz, Bob Lesher, Ed Needles, and Loren Zimmerman capably represented us on the varsity football team. Several boys were then on the J -V basketball team preparing for their rise to the varsity ranks. Nearly all other organizations had many Sophomores among their members. Early in our Junior year, we undertook the task of electing class officers who were: Richard Will, president, Loren Zimmerman, vice-president, Phyllis Gerhard, sec- retary, and Walter Root, treasurer. Several of the boys from our class took part in the traditional fray between Lititz and Ephrata when the locals emerged triumphant, beating the Pretzels by the score of 13 to 3. Added glory was given our team by the annexation of four trophies plus the Conference of the Roses Championship. The year's social events were climaxed by the Junior Prom held May 2 in our gym, attractively decorated in green and white. From nine till midnight we danced to the music of Bob Lyter's orchestra. Upon Mr. Metzler's return, a new dramatic group, called the 'Trata Footlighters, was organized. The Student Council, a governing body, composed of members from every class, was inaugurated. After a vacation that seemed to have gone all too rapidly, we got into the swing of our Senior year with the advent of the varsity football season in the first week of school. Under co-captains Leon Givler and Donnie Howett, the team finished a success- ful season, climaxed by a timely 12 to 0 defeat of Lititz, which, being the last game of the season, firmly entrenched the locals in second place on the Conference of the Roses. Elected to serve us in our last year at E. H. S. were the following officers: Ronald Aires, president, Richard Will vice-president, Phyllis Gerhard, secretary, and Murray Schwartz, treasurer. At an early meeting we decided to purchase jackets, hats, pennants and emblems. The yearbook staff was appointed and worked diligently in order to have a bigger and better CLOISTERETTE. An orchestra was formed under the supervision of our new instrumental music instructor, Mr. Berger. Another new organization, the Madrigal Singers, was added to the list of extra-curricular activities. On April 30 the Senior class was the guest of the Class of '49 at the annual Junior Prom. The climax of our school years drew near with the preparation for the Bac- calaureate Service, Class Day, and Commencement. Leaving the portals of Frata Hi for the last time on May 28, we went out into the world, willing to accept life's problems. X Kg la X514 Y fXw f Q ,mR WM! A A?

TH E SOPHOMORE CLASS The Class of '50 has contributed much athletically, scholastically and socially to the success of Ephrata High. With its fine representation in many activities about the halls of E. H. S., it is bound to play an important part in the school events in the few years which still remain for its class members. The Sophomore class officers are: President, David Brunnerg vice president, Paul Wolfe, secretary, Joanne Young, treasurer, Jacqueline Beck, its representatives to the Student Council are: David Brunner, Joanne Young and Milo Zimmerman.

THE FRESI-IMAN CLASS The Class of '51 has already contributed much to our school. In music this class has participated in the Junior High School Glee Club as well as the band and orchestra. They are prominent on the Mountaineer staff, in the Junior High Dramatics Club, and as Library Assistants. But, probably their most important field thus far is sports. Here we find Gladys Summers, Jane Kochel, and Madelaine Beck as Junior High Cheerleaders. X ke.. ww S 'Y EX . Xl - gif-, Class BOYS 5th row: C. Noll, E. Mohler, R. Burkholder, L. Summers, D.

Determined and eager to fit into the pattern of their new environ- ment, they soon became accustomed to our ways. They are highly talented in music and we have great hope for them in sports. To this class we wish all the happiness which only school days can give us. 7 'Trailers for Salev 'Mortitioneru 'Termiten 'Bit Ti Bi Bop Bop Molding the Minds of the Future The Epitome of Industryv Little He1pfu1???', Protege of Minerva i N . .sts 2 gf' 5 S X X 2 X 5 5 ff? i n I .

Perhaps the two most colorful games of the season were the Elizabethtown game, in which the Mounts were supposedly outclassed but Won by the score of 13-65 and the Red Lion game in which they suffered defeat at the cost of the Conference Trophy. However, a bright spot on this squad's record was the permanent retaining of the Lititz- Ephrata Trophy.

Led by such versatile players as Larry Eitnier, Eugene Rutt, Ernie Hartranft and Donald Weaver, the team distinguished itself on numerous occasions. Mr. Graham, serving as coach of this team, spent much time deciding upon the boys who would make most efficient team members. The aim of the team is not only to bring home victories for the Junior High, but also to Work to become well versed in the knowledge of the game so that better high school teams will be the result. Seventh, eighth and ninth grades were all represented on the team. Members of the team included: Larry Eitnier, Eugene Rutt, Earnest Hartranft, Paul Shupp, Donald Weaver, Donald Brubaker, Robert Root, Gilbert Gockley, Lyle Sherk, Calvin Hauck, Donald Rutt, Charles Zinn, Jacob Weaver and Ronald Witmer. .yy ge- GIRLS' RIFLE CLUB 3rd row: L.

That this group consisting of sophomores, juniors and seniors has exceptional talent is proved by the club's strict requirements. After passing a very difficult entrance test these girls settled down to hard Work. Under the efficient supervision of Miss McMillen, physical education instructress, they first studied the different parts and rules of the gun and then how to handle the gun. They have greatly benefitted both mentally and physically from this course and have upheld the traditions of E. H. S. in their rifle club work.

This club has been steadily gaining in popularity an interest in the school since the resumption of league matches, which had been discon- tinued during the recent war. During the month of December, the members engaged in renovating the range to the extent of erecting new backstops and lights. A cement floor was also added this year. Proof of its increasing popularity with the students is the nearly overwhelming group of sophomores who applied for membership into the club this year. It might also be mentioned that in addition to participating in the league, matches, the members engage in an intramural match at the end of the season. This match, sponsored by the N. R. A., includes matches in the four positions. Last year the team wound up its league relations as league champions and participated in the state semi-finals. Lots of possibles to the future Nimrods.

On October first Mr. Bohn resigned in order to accept another position. Mr. Robert P. Berger was chosen to succeed Mr, Bohn. Under Mr. Berger's baton, this organization produced many excellent musical pro- grams which were enjoyed by both the student body and community.

Being one of the Hrst groups to organize after the opening of school in September, the Mixed Chorus,which met every Tuesday and Thursday, had one of its busiest years ever experienced. This organization, under the able direction of Mrs. Leisey, and com- posed of talented singers from the senior high school plus several boys from the junior high school, experienced a very successful year. Being the first chorus of our school to sing over the air, they started their prosperous season by preparing for the broadcast of November 21. Immediately after that successful rendition, plans were made for an ex- cellent Christmas program in which the Mixed Chorus played a major part. In the be- ginning of the new year, representatives of this organization were sent to Southern Dis- trict Chorus and to Lancaster County Chorus. The Annual Music Festival in April climaxed the work of the Chorus. E. H. S. can be proud to claim this organization. 74 - - ee..

As a completely new and different organization, the Madrigal Singers, composed of ten members from the Junior and Senior Classes, have added new charm to the musi- cal schedule of our high school. Organized for the first time this year under the direction of Mrs. Leisey, the group started a successful season by making its initial debut on November 21 on the radio broadcast. After that successful start, they made several ap- pearances in our other school programs and entertained many organizations of the town, such as the Rotary Club. This musical organization specializes in singing only madrigals-musical numbers which were the first secular music ever written, dating back to the year 1560. Although the Madrigal Singers have sung madrigals of many different countries, the English mad- rigals seem to be their specialty. We hope the success of this organization will continue.

This group of talented voices from seventh, eighth and ninth grades met each Monday and Wednesday during the activity period. The result of their diligent practice has been demonstrated in various school programs. Under the direction of Mrs. Leisey, the chorus took part in the Spring Festival and the Christmas program. This accompanist was Marian Fry. 5 ORCHESTRA When we say Something new has been added, we mean just thatg for when the Ephrata High School Orchestra was added to the list of extra-curricular activities, an or- ganization completely new and different was introduced into the musical outline of our Alma Mater. Under the capable supervision of Mr. Berger, this group manifested its zeal and talent by making its initial debut in an assembly program on November 21, only three short weeks after it was first organized. Composed of twenty-seven students from all grades, this group has made several public appearancesg the first of which was on December 21, at which time they presented the overture to the Christmas program. All of us feel a deep sense of pride everytime we hear the admirable music of the orchestra. As members of the class of '48, we are particularly proud that this long dreamed-about organization finally became a reality in our Senior year.

One of the initial projects of the paper was the 'tPaper Per Person campaign. The co-operation of the staH was realized by all who read and enjoy this monthly publication.

FRATA FOOTLIGHTERS The Frata Footlighters held its meetings on the first and third Monday of each month. For each meeting, different committees planned programs, usually consisting of a short play. This gave the members an opportunity to find out if they had any ability for acting. The organization has given us another year of excellent entertainment. The club, under the supervision of Mr. Metzler, presented to the public two plays, Christmas at Caseys and Christmas Is for Children on December 23 and also its annual production in the spring. Because of the constant efforts of the members and the guidance of the faculty advisor, this club has been able to present remarkable work. OFFICERS President ......................................

The Junior Dramatics Club, known as the Frata Starlets, draws its members from the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. It was organized not only to acquaint these students with the elementary requirements of acting, but also to make them aware of and develop, those qualities which help build personality and character. Through various individual and group presentations, the members of the club learn responsibility, coop- eration, self-confidence and poise. Although still in its infancy, this club hopes someday to be a rival with its big sister, the F rata Footlightersf' President .................. ........ .......................

Stewart, Miss Hoover, This group of girls, under the supervision of Miss Hoover, has faithfully assisted in library work during the year. Before these girls could assist in the library, they were given preliminary training by the librarian. Hiss Hoover taught her assistants to check books, to arrange the books on the shelves in their correct order and also to arrange the magazines and papers. Several tests were included in the training course. After this training the assistants were well prepared to do library work. Each girl worked several periods a week in order to be eligible for the small EH award. Due to the cooperative spirits of these girls, the library was well kept during the entire year. 89 ': 4' W Band practice Ready for take off' Brer Givler in the Briar Patch It's harmless At the Pagoda By the beautiful sea '4What's ailing Tie- mie?
