As each year slipped away, you were brought a little nearer to the realization of that dream, and each success and disappointment made you a little stronger to face the harder problems to come. You grew in wisdom and in stature , from little children to young men and women. And now, your great objective has become a reality, your dream has come true - you are about to graduate! You have attained this milestone of achievement mainly through your own efforts, through the love and concern of your parents, and through the interest and guidance of your teachers and friends. You have been taught to uphold high ideals and standards, to think clearly and intelligently through difficult situations, to accept the responsibilities which are yours to carry, to appreciate your many blessings as an American, and to take advantage of these blessings so that you may be an asset to your community and your country. As you go from this place of learning you will enter greater fields of endeavor. You will be called upon to serve your fellowmen in many varied ways. You will discover that you will attain the greatest degree of happiness when you are giving of your time, your talents, yourself, in helping to make others happy. In behalf of the Board of Education, I want you to know that we are proud of you, Class of 1955, and we are expecting greater things of you in the coming years. We wish you success and satisfaction in the choosing of your particular vocations. We hope that you will find it an easy task to build your future happiness and security on the foundations that you have laid through the years spent in the Hatfield School. Very sincerely yours, WILLARD M. LANDIS 6 MR. I. NEWTON COWAN Supervising Principal ClZf7lt'glit' Imtzituir of Technology Franklin and .llarfhall Collfgff, B.S.

Does it mean that one knows the salient facts about government, the important events and movements of history, and the pro's and con's of the public issues of the day? lt means these things, but it means much more. The educated person is socially competent and civically responsible, is able to think rationally, has respect for other persons, is able to work cooperatively with others, understands the operation of our economic system and the human relations involved therein, practices good personal relations within the family, purchases and uses goods and services intelligently, appreciates and enjoys beauty in literature, art, music, and nature, is able to listen and read with understanding and communicate his thoughts with precision and clarity, understands the methods of science and the influence of science on human life, and understands ethical values and principles and practices ethical conduct. The truly educated person practices good health habits, uses his leisure time wisely, reads widely and intelligently, is emotionally stable, and understands and practices the democratic way of life. He uses his time efficiently and budgets it wisely, plans his affairs, both individually and in groups, with intelligence, and carries Ollt his plans efficiently. He is vocationally competent, and constantly seeks to improve himself. He takes an active and intelligent part in the affairs of his community, state and nation. He is depend- able and cooperative, and works actively to improve his character and personality. He has a deep and sincere belief in human nature, and an abiding faith in a divine purpose. To act intelligently and purposefully one must have a sound background of knowledge. One must also develop understandings, beliefs, attitudes, habits of thought, and modes of conduct. The educated person has developed clear understandings and valid beliefs and attitudes because he has acquired the necessary informational background, examined all sides of a question critically, weighed the consequences of the various alternatives, and reached a decision based upon rational evaluation. When this is done, and only then, he decides upon a course of action. After he has decided upon a course of action he follows it through. One who is educated, therefore, is one who knows, believes, thinks, plans, and, above all, acts intelligently, rationally, purposefully and with due regard to human values, democratic principles, and ethical considerations. Are you educated? I. NEWTKJN COWAN 7 ANNA M. ANGENY ENGLISH Wert Chefter State Teaeherf' College Univerfity of Pennfylvania, B.S. Temple Univerxity Extra-Curricular Activities Scrable Club.

She also kept the high school files in order. ln the principal'S Offige, Mrs. Lqfi to righf: Mrs. Martha Fickerr, Miss Helen Glucclc. Fickert attended to the accounting Mrs' Betty Mnssler' duties and payrolls of the school plus the secretarial duties of the joint school board while Miss Glueck sorted the morning mail for teachers, worked on the elementary files, and was private sec- retary for l. Newton Cowan, Principal. As before, students distributed announcements sheets, and collected attendance and admission slips. 'A' PARENT-TEACHERS ASSOCIATION The Family Studies the Community School, was the theme throughout the 1954-1955 season of the Hatfield Parents-Teachers Association Meetings. Topics of discussion at these meetings concerned school busses, dating, school life and the reading problems of children. Among the activities sponsored by the association was a book fair which took place at one of the meetings. A beginner's dancing class which started in September was held for an average of twenty-five pupils. To raise money, the association conducted bake sales at each meeting and a street fair in May. The proceeds from these were used for scholarship funds, awards for graduation, attendance and membership prizes of- fered to the elementary and high school homerooms, and donations to the athletic as- sociation and student loan fund. Leading the association in a year's work well done were: Mr. Norman Roberts, Presi- dent, Mrs. David Lewis, First Vice-President, Mr. Stanley Golazeski, Second Vice-President, Mrs. Hayes Herschler, Secretary, Mrs. Donald Greens, Correspond- ing Secretaryg and Mrs. John Gray, Treasurer. 12 ' .IANITORS Neither sleet, nor snow, or wind and rain shall keep these men from their appointed duties. Perhaps we may be exaggerating a bit and do not mean mailmen, but the phrase does have a meaning to us and our two janitors, Elmer Rupert and Nelson Nolan. Always smiling and always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in distress or need, these men certainly have earned a prominent place in the school. l Mr. Rupert, working during the Lrff! lu righl: lilmcr Rupert, Nelson Nolan. day, and Mr- NOIHH, at mghfv have many duties to perform which are important to the proper school functioning. These include cleaning classrooms and halls, moving furniture, and one of the most important to pupils, keeping the school open for extra-curricular activities. Before we leave Hatfield High we would like to say a big THANK YOU to Mr. Rupert and lVlr. Nolan for their friendliness, cooperation, and aid to our affairs. We couldn't have succeeded without them. 'A' BUS DRIVERS For the thirty-fourth consecutive year the Delp Bus Service has provided transportation for the students of Hatfield School. The four busses driven by Mr. Durrell Delp, Mr. Charles Keeley, Mr. Gifford Cook, and Mr. Wilson Alon each make three round trips a day, plus extra trips at noon to transport the pupils who are on half day sessions. The men are also willing and ready to drive their busses to all athletic events and class trips. We owe a debt ofgratitude for their kindness and consideration which they have extended to us throughout the years. 13 MEDICAL DEPARTMENT Along with childhood and growing up, there comes a time in school when the school nurse becomes a very important person. Mrs. Anne Stark filled this posi- tion and helped turn many a youngsters, tears to smiles by aiding them through their aches and pains, real or imaginary. Other duties included in Mrs. Stark's job were to make home calls, check on absentees, and keep health records of all pupils. To stimulate interest in nursing, Mrs. Stark began the Future Nurses' Club where the girls were taught how to make beds, care for patients and make them comfortable. She also administered the audiometer tests to check the pupils sense of hearing. In the fall X-rays were given by the Montgomery County Tuberculosis and Health Society to anyone wishing to be X-rayed. Dr. Albert Schafenacher again conducted physical examinations and Dr. William L. Robinhold checked the pupil's teeth. 'A' CAFETERIA STAFF The way to a person's heart is through his stomach certainly seems to be the motto of the cafeteria stafffMrs. Victoria Kober, Head Cook, Mrs. Elmira Henning and Mrs. Helen Benner, Food Servers, Mrs. Pearl Schlosser, Cashier, and behind the scenes, Mrs. Marie Miller, Mrs. Lavina Clemens, Mrs. Hannah Stoneback, Mrs. Sarah Price, and Mrs. Beatrice Delp. Day after day these people are responsible for providing many enjoyable meals and platters which keep us students healthy and happy. Lunchtime is always the favorite time of the day. We would like to thank the staff and the student aides who helped the staff by serving ice cream, pie, cakes, potato chips, and coffee during the past year. 14 L 5 INFORMAL FACULTY . -fffgf we' :fa ' B from H 'ns We YI Xxigufx' wwe Fufu YB li U Yee. 9 Mor- H177 8 INFORMAL FACULTY Chefs N' ww BM II, ii W Lui e Tnaf 0NDfR6'lv45'5f5' l.ff1 to riglzl, Finr!

IH SEVENTH GRADE Although new to the junior high school, the seventh graders soon became adjusted, entered into the many activities, and proved themselves willing workers. Their greatest loss upon this new venture in high school was the lack ofa recess period, but gym class proved a good substitute for them. The class was divided into three sections. First was 7-I under the supervision of Mrs. Ben. New pupils in this section were Shirley Welch, Mary Gardner, and Elwood Duckworth. ln the 7eII section, Carol Renninger, Georgene Zaroff, Robert Lulcens, and Robert Roth were the new additions. Miss Trexler was their advisor. Mr. Golazeski had charge of 7eIII. Newcomers here were .loyce Wenrzel, Robert Morton, and George Houck. To climax their first year in junior high school, the combined homerooms made a trip to Willow Grove Amusement Park for a school picnic. if? 7 - III OFFICERS Prfxidnzt ....... ............,...,,....

Under the direction of Miss Berringer, 8-fl occupied Cel. For these youngsters, Halloween proved to be great fun. At this time they had a party. Among the many games played was ducking for apples. Miss Angeny was advisor for 8-II. This section ranked second highest in the school for the sale of magazines. The auditorium served as the homeroom for Selll under the guidance of Mr. hlaffe. New pupils in the eighth grade this year were William Reed, Edward Humber, Alfred Roberts, -ludith lirandis, Elaine Starner, and Norman Roth. if S I OFFICERS l'rm'z'ilfr1t ,....... ..........,.. . . . , JACOB GU'liHRll'i 1Ylit'K'PffJ'fdE7lf ..... ...... . . .JOHN DRUNHVIOND St'I'ft'fdfy ...... .....

They started by being on the Junior High Teams and engaging in the many activities provided by the school. They sponsored several dungaree hops, also. A trip to the voting polls was taken in the fallg and, to Harrisburg in the spring. An assembly program was given on November 3. This was in the form ofthe quiz program, Beat the Clock. 22 Mrs. Kriebel and Mr. Nieznay were the advisors for this group. New pupils included Alice Welch, Doris Wentzell, John Kevin, Glenn Kriebel, and Jack Smith. A new world begins next year for these students when they enter Senior High School. Many new activities and studies will keep them quite busy. wif 9 - II Ol l'ilClCRS l're.fidnz1 ......, ....,.,..... ........ j . ACK SlVll'l'H 1'irz-Prr.vi'denz .,., .,,....

They started by increasing their class enrollment with Walter Loburak, Myron Roth, and Wilbur Kriebel as the new entrants. Hockey and soccer were the first activities in which the group participated. Many of the girls and fellows were found in athletic and band uniforms during the season. They shared headlines with the upper classmen. The Sophs sang with the Harmonaires for the first time this year. The school newspaper and basketball also took a fair share of their time. These lads and lasses proved to be a great asset to the school and teams. The highlight of the year was the April dance. Because of the jointure in the fall, the sophomores must postpone the excitement and thrill of getting their class rings. These sophs certainly started their high school days with a bang. Here's hoping that all the rest of their days in high school will be just as successful. iff OFFICERS Prtxidmt ,,..... ...,...,.... ,.., R A YMOND SNYDER Vic:-President .... ,.... l .ONNY SCHWARTZ Szcfftary .,..... , ......

One group was in C-4 under the supervision of Mr. Coblentz while the other was in room 23 with Mr. Chilcote as their advisor. One of the biggest problems with which the class had to cope was to begin raising money for their senior year. To help their treasury they sold Easter eggs and held bake sales. Dungaree hops were also sponsored throughout the the year to aid the cause. Studying the causes and prevention of juvenile delinquency was a problem they undertook. For this they wrote letters and arranged questionaires to help them in their opinions. Several girls represented the Hatfield Forum Club by attending the meetings and discussions at neighboring schools, Five juniors had the experience and excitement of going to the United Nations Building with seniors. In sports, the teams were well represented by the junior class. They also were members of the band and harmonaires. Charles Whartenby was the only new pupil to enter this grade. We wish the juniors much success as seniors in the fall. As Juniors, they proved to be a very important part of our scholastic life as well as our activities. if OFFICERS Przfidznl ........ ,.........., ..,........

JOHN RUSKIN 4-4 Diary of the Class of 1955 Dear Diary, Today I entered school for the first time. My, what a group of friendly, active children I have joined! 1 think it will be fun going to school with them. The teacher tells me that 1 will have to learn to read, write, spell, do arithmetic, and study history, geography, science and health. I am very glad we have recesses! September, 1942 September, 19-1-9 School again! Boy, it feels good to be out of the grades and in high school, even if it is only junior high! How will I ever remember where I sit in the different rooms? And all those books to carry! I don't think 1'll even be able to get through seventh grade. September, 1951 Ninth grade already, Dear Dairy, and I survived those books. Now a few colleagues and I are taking Latin. I'm afraid the poor Romans would turn over in their graves if they heard us! We are also beginning to collect class dues. September, 1952 - June, 1953 Senior high school at last! We all feel very important as sophomores with Mr. Chilcote and Mr. Potts as our advisors. Lucy Clemens is our president, and Bob Hoelscher is vice-president. Gail Server and Phyllis Frankenfield are secretary and treasurer, respectively. Selecting class rings brought about much debating, but we finally chose them, and they arrived shortly before Christmas. To swell our treasury we sold greeting cards and writing paper, besides collecting dues. Some of the kids joined the Orange and Black staff, and the King's Men played for our sophomore dance, Une Night in April. September, 1953 - june, 1954 Sadness has come to our class, Dear Diary. Gerry Cassel passed away during the summer. She will never be for otten. The thrill of becoming juniors helped pep us up. Miss Heiges and Miss Hvasta, now bits. Ben, were our advisors, and Lue was again elected president. janet Maurer became vice-president, Flossie Armitage, secretary, and Rosie Landis, treasurer. We sold pencils, felt letters, potted plants, and Easter eggs. We sponsored many dungaree hops to raise money, and, ofcourse, there were the always present class dues. We discovered a few Barrymores in our class when they took part in the junior-senior play, Father War A Houxewzlfz. Learning to drive added to our grown-up feeling but caused the loss of some more of Mr. Chilcote's hair. The May dance, May Coronation, featured the Skylarks. Shirley Vincent and Sam Loeffler were crowned May queen and king, with Hazel Moore and jerry Moyer representing our class. Oh, Dear Dairy, it was sad seeing the seniors off to Washington! We wished it were our turn. Yes! We all had fun at the farewell party for the new graduates at Shirley Brand's home and at the prom at Forrest Lodge. September, 1954 - May, 1955 Hurrah! Seniors at last! It doesn't seem possible that we've finally made it! However, I'm afraid our advisors, Miss Heiges and Mr. Richards, sometimes have their doubts as to our being seniors, but here we are. jim Kriebel took over the presidency this year with Charlie Ott as vice-president and Phyllis Frankenfield and Frank javorka as business managers. Flossie and Rosie kept their jobs for another year. How to earn money has become the most important item. After being told the staggering total of money we would have to earn, the magazine campaign was launched, and class dues were raised. And the dear old Prom peanuts - who can forget them? We sold hundreds of bags of these to raise that much needed green stuff. We also sponsored dungaree hops and bake sales, collected newspapers and sold candy after school and at games. The Hatter staff was chosen, and we soon had the job of getting ads. We also nominated teachers in order to select the one to whom the Hatter would be dedicated, choose the class motto and colors, had our senior pictures taken, and selected name cards and announcements. The Crew Cuts of H.H.S. first made their appearance at an assembly program, as did jackie Gleason's Poor Soul. Both brought down the house with laughter. A belated Welcome Party for the juniors proved to be a great success. The magical days of the Washington trip were April 28 to 30. The girls especially liked Annapolis, and everyone en- joyed the moonlight cruise and Glen Echo Park. I know 1'll never forget those sleepless nights, early mornings, water pistols, and all the walking, walking and more walking! How the year has flown! So many little incidents have happened that 1 must relate a few of them to you. For instance, the unforgettable class meetings, jim is still hoarse! The girls developed a craze for knitting argyle socks. Dave Kratz invented a new way to open locker doors. Al found a few rodent friends in his locker, and there were many lively discussions in P.O.D. and Family Living Classes. Of course, all the scrapes we got into will never be forgotten by us or the teachers. May 23, 1955 This will be the last entry, Dear Dairy, for tonight is Class Night. We are all here having fun, but looking sadly toward Commencement and the huge world beyond for us to conquer. As we leave, a phrase of our Alma Mater comes to our minds, firm are the friendships, strong are the ties, binding us close to thee. 45 M5-I-I-f ig M 3 3 9234-fvvwil' xjfvv ,ffw '-w A N' 9 5 'J ' 67703 as-MN Xalan ,X h w Q . y I if ,.

The long awaited day had finally arrived. We were full of energy as we arrived in Baltimore, Maryland. A guided tour of the U. S. Naval Academy thrilled the girls, and the luncheon at the Anchorage was gratefully consumed. From Annapolis We took a bus to Washington and Mount Vernon. Upon our arrival at the New Colonial Hotel, along with the assignment of rooms and the un- packing, confusion reigned supreme, but everything was soon righted. After dinner at the hotel, we took a bus to the Congressional Library. The evening ended with a moonlight cruise on the Potomac River after which we returned to our hotel to sleep ? Breakfast at 7 a.m. Friday morning found us a very sleepy group, but some of our energy returned after a little nourishment. We were soon on ourway to visit the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and the Washington Monument. The latter, with all those steps, put signs of wear on a few of us, including Mr. Kriebel, and everyone was glad to relax in the bus on the way to the White l-louse. The rest of the day was spent in visiting the National Art Gallery, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Rock Creek Park, the zoo, Fort Meyer, Virginia, Arlington Cemetery, and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. After another meal at the New Colonial, we went to Glen Echo Amusement Park, where we used the remainder of our energy. Everyone was more than glad to return to the hotel to get some shut-eye. Seven-thirty Saturday morning again found us eating breakfast. A guided tour of the Capitol followed. After visiting the Smithsonian Institute and the New National Museum, we returned to the hotel to pack our bags. We hated to leave the hotel, for it meant that our Washington trip was almost over. However, the Lincoln and jefferson Memorials were very impressive, and we looked forward to the return trip on the train. Shortly after leaving Union Station, we soon sat down to dinner in the dining car, a novel experience for most of us. The easy spilling of glasses caused much joking, but the meal was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Before realizing it, we had pulled into VVayne junction, and shortly thereafter, the familiar sights around Lansdale came into view. Our friends and families again met us. Good-bys to each other and thanks to the ever patient chaperons were expressed fthey looked a little tired and worn, although no one knew whyj, and we went to our respective homes. The memories we shared and the fun we had will long live in our hearts. 48 v4C'7lVl7lf.9 gllIHf!I'I1Q'l,tif'I tu Rigl11: Gutlxre.A. Mayall, R. Snyder, l.. Schwartz, D. Schlosser.

This year Council enrolled in the Save the Child Federation, a child welfare organization in Europe. To this they contributed 545, which was used to Care for a child for a one year period. The members also compiled a book of rules and regulations of Hatfield School, along with some ofthe school songs and Cheers. In order to express their ideas on recreation, Student Council attended a meeting of the Hat- field Youth Council. The latter is now sponsoring a bowling league. An auction was Conducted by Council in order to raise money. SO Irqfr fu Right: Miss Berringer, H. l.ewis, M. Kratz, Guthre, F. Dclclorsey. CHORAL SPEAKING CLUB The purpose ofthe Choral Speaking Club was to have fun improving speech habits. During the year, time had been devoted to learning speech mechanisms, correct breathing and proper pronunciation. Some time was also given to work with serioys prose and contrast it with nursery and nonsensical rhymes. Because the Choral Speaking group was small -fe two boys and five girls they devoted most of their time to reading in unison. FORUM CLUB Faculty Adziifor ..............,.......... MR. GERALD H. Kiumsui. -lames Kriebel, senior member, was a participant in the Voice of Democracy contest. Toler- ance, a Test of Democracy was the subject selected for his three minute speech. Hatfield, being a member of the Bux-Chester-Montgomery Forum, assembled in dfiferent schools to discuss current problems from time to time. Many of these discussions were broadcast on the radio. The club also attended a meeting at Upper Moreland on December 15 where they discussed the question Should the Press Be Restricted in its Freedom to Cover Court Trials? Arlene Fluck spoke on Wll3C's Radio Forum on .lanuary 26, at which time she discussed Should the United States Abolish All Protective Tariff. ClU!'L'i'l'Iv.ff.' A. lfluck. B. Slater, D.

Henry Johannes Probably one of the most important activities at Hatfield High was the publication of the school paper, the Orange and Blaek. Again, as in many previous years, it won first place in both the Pennsylvania School Press Association contest and the Columbia School Press annual competition with other schools. The staff observed National Newspaper week by visiting Bonekemper's typesetting establish- ITICIII. Three of its members attended the yearly state school press meeting at Pennsylvania State University, and the school press convention at Drexel Institute of Technology. Since this year marked the last one for the high school and consequently for the paper, the staff presented at the Commencement exercises two beautifully bound volumes of all the issues from 1929 to the present, thus providing for posterity a history of the Hatfield High School. 52 First Row-'-Left to Right: J.

The Who's Who page was early determined upon by the class as well as the faculty member to whom the book was to be dedicated. Getting ads and securing snapshots occupied much of the available time for the months that followed. The Sarony photographer was also often seen at school taking the group pictures, as the Hatter slowly became a reality. The deadline having arrived, tension increased, but finally with a great sigh of relief the last bit of copy was handed in. 53 On tlif Florin- l..Qft In Riglzlx P. Herschler. R. Kaler, T. Daub, lf.

POETRY'CLUB Small but mightyl' well describes the Poetry Club which consisted of only four girls and three boys. This was under the supervision of Mrs. Mabel Beeman. Robert Frost occupied a great deal of their time. His poems were read both by the advisor and by the pupils. To add to the interest, records were used. Other records featuring Robert Tristram Coffin and Vachel Lindsey were also heard. The qualities of good poetry, figures of speech and rhythm were discussed. VVriting verse was encouraged and worked on as a group and individually. FRENCH CLUB Commrrz! Allen-wow? The pupils of the French club soon learned how to say How are you? under Miss Beatrice Heigesl supervision. The purpose of this club was primarily to promote interest in France. Learning about the French people and their customs, as well as the language itself, was stimulated by records. Another diversion from the ordinary routine of studies was singing French songs. such as C,est Si Bon, K'Alouette and Frere jacques . Learning the days of the week, months of the year, and telling time proved to be another interesting topic, and the year ended as the pupils felt a new kinship with their French neighbors.

Tuoivms Cuircorie Through the loss of a few more sacred hairs from the head of our driver training instructor, Mr. Thomas Chilcote, there are now approximately -IU new fullfledged drivers. Part of the course consisted of a class session given to the eleventh grade students. ln this class they learned the rules and regulations that are necessary for a good driver to know. . As in previous years, Hendricks Brothers of Telford generously provided the Chevrolet driver training car in which the students learned how to drive, during activity periods and after school. When Mr. Chilcote felt that the student had progressed sufficiently toward the goal of a safe driver, the latter was permitted to take his driver's test at Norristown. Then, after proving his driving skill and answering a few questions, he was duly admitted into the corps of licensed drivers. FUTURE NURSES CLUB Advifor ...,........,......,....,......, MRS.

A UDREY MAURER Auirtanz .llanager ..., .... B ARBARA CLARK Come on, kids! Let's rush it ini! These were familiar words on the hockey field as the girls drove in for a goal. And drive it they did, finishing up the season with a grand total of 23 goals to their opponents' S. This climaxed their fifth consecutive year as Tri-County League Champions under the able guidance of Coach Stover. During these five years the teams have played 36 straight undefeated games. This season the maidens started off with a bang, easily clinching their first game by a score of 6-l. They successfully staved off their opponents until the contest on October 28 with Lower Moreland when neither team seemed to be able to sneak through the defense and on into the cage. The score rested at a O-0 deadlock after the final whistle had been blown. The last game of the season with nearby rival, North Wales, also proved a thriller for those on the sidelines. The Hatter eleven shot out from the short end of a Z-O score and pocketed two counters which in themselves were not enough to win the game but held their rivals to a tie game. Thus ended the 1954 season with Hatfield one half game ahead of the Lower Moreland lassies. This year's team members to be lost through graduation include captain, Rosie Landis, center half, Janet Maurer, right and left wings, Gladys Delp and Flossie Armitage, right inner, Nancy Nascaro and center forward, Lucy Clemens.

Thirteen letter winners returned to the Falcon squad from last year and the Birds were picked in pre-season predictions to cop their second straight trophy at the hands of the Tri-County League. Playing a schedule of 14 games the Hatters captured 12, tied one and dropped the lone big one to the upstate Red Hurricane from Bethlehem. The big game of the season was with the Red Hurricane at Bethlehem late in the campaign. Previously the two squads tied 1-1 thus the winner of this game would probably capture the laurels. Bethlehem scored early in the first quarter, but a strong offensive maneuver by the Hatters quickly tied it up. The clincher came in the third period when Skippy Rodenback, the league's high scorer, booted the final tally through. Final score f Hatfield 1, Bethlehem 2. Ronny Bivighouse led the squad's scoring efforts with 17 goals. He was closely followed by Gerry Moyer with 16. The Hatters scored 65 goals to their opponents' 15 in the fourteen contests. Charley Ott, halfbackg Gerry Moyer, linemang Frank -lavorka, halfbackg Harry Wurster, goalie: and Russell Synder, fullback, represented the Falcons in the All-Star game at Memorial Park, Lansdale. The Bethlehem booters edged the All-Stars 1-0 in a thrilling frenzy. Coarh ..,.......,........,..,......................... MR. ciERAl.D Bowuk Co-Captaim. .,,.

The Red Hurricane managed to get only one lone goal but that was sufficient as the All-Stars fell to defeat, I-0. Glenn QSkippyJ Rodenhach's tally midway in the first quarter against the Hatters' Harry Wurster was Bethlehem's victory clincher.

The rookie mentor had a very well balanced squad with such stars as Jesse Lewis, Joe Guthre, Junie Watts, Leighton Shaen, Eddie Glover and Sammy Gerhart sparking the attack. The Junior Falcons topped New Hope twice, Worcester twice, once by an amazing ll-0 score with Fickert drawing home four goals, Perkiomen, and Hill School. The only loss came at the hands of rival North Wales. The Wildcats drove through 2 goals to top the Kids by a score of 2-0. The Walers also tied the Hatters in a scoreless deadlock at North Wales, previously. The twenty-four man squad scored 33 goals in nine games. Goalie Joe Guthre was victim of only three opponents rallies all season. Guthre a ninth grader will be considerable help to the varsity next season possessing a fine arm and long boot. Twenty-five ofthe squad received letters along with managers Bob Madison and Robert Hilliard. The only seventh grader to receive a letter was Eddie Glover who tallied five goals and was second only to Leighton Shaen in scoring by one.

MARVYN JAFFE Managerf ..........................,. Tom PRICE and JACK SMITH The last varsity basketball team of Hatfield High compiled a league record of seven wins and seven defeats after losing three contests to non-league opponents. Not one letterman was lost from last year's squad, which established a Z and 12 log. The appointment of Marvyn Jaffe as head coach of the Hatters also proved vital in improving the team's record. North Wales, the Falcon's neighboring rival, again provided tense thrills in its two games with Hatfield but the home town courtmen clinched both by scores of 54-51 and 61-57. Gerry Moyer, sparkling ball handler, tallied a season high of 22 points for the Falcons in the second outing against the Walers. After afair first half finish the Falcons began to roll and were in the thick of the second session race, knocking off Palisades and upsetting strong Coopersburg. Then Lower Moreland, victors og The LIT?-County Championship, invaded Hatfield and ruined the local's hopes of victory with a 4 - e eat. Scoring honors for the seventeen games went to Harry Wurster, senior pivotman, with a total of 188 points. Senior Charley Seiger bucketed 127. Bill Harris, junior forward, rounded off the top three scorers with 104 tallies. Al Kober, Charles Seiger, Russ Snyder, and Jon Marx played their last season of high school basketball along with Frank Javorka, Harry Wurster, Charley Ott, and Jerry Moyer. Promising talent from Bill Harris, Jack Gray, and Ray Snyder should be of great aid to the new North Penn Joint hoopsters next campaign. 1 SCORES Hrlfflffd Opponfntf Hatfield Opponent: 39 ....

Tom PRICE, JACK SMITH The Junior Varsity lads compiled a seasonal record of8 wins and 6 losses, statistically speaking, a better campaign than their poppa varsity. After dropping four out of the first five contests, the jayvees caught their bearings and spectacularly rallied to clinch five straight league encounters. The string of victories were over previously unbeaten, Upper Dublin, Jenkintown, New Hope, Palisades, and Coopersburg. Upper Dublin's jayvees were the talk of the Tri-County League and boasted a clean slate in the Won and lost column. It all ended for the Cardinals when they met the Hatters, who dumped them 31-25. The team which consisted of only five, consistently dependable players totaled 408 points to their opponents 379. Gray Farley, sophomore hoopster, bucketed 104 points for the '54-'55 season.

RoNA1.D RICHARDS The outcome of the varsity baseball team depends upon Lady Luck and her wheel of fortune. Since Coach Ronald Richards has taken over the helm of the Hatter nine, his team has rated second place the last two years and are still are hoping for the big one. Last year was to have been the Falcons big chance but strong Palisades High conquered the league and clinched the Upper and Lower division championships. Coach Richards has the same battery back from two seasons past when the birds fell to defeat in the playoffs to local North Wales. The pitching and catching duo of Harry Wurster and Jerry Moyer should find their bearings after two attempts. Bob Javorka, junior sensation is another main factor along with Lonny Schwartz, soph reliefer, on the Hatter staff. Dave Fretz, who possesses a tremendous fast ball, also will fling for the Hatter and alternate at first base. The infield shapes up as one of the schools best with Charles Ott, Bill Vincent, Walt Loburak, and Frank Javorka rounding out the diamond hopefuls. Patroling the pasturelands will be Ronny Landis, Ray Snyder, Charley Seiger and john Venetz. This will be the Hatters' last chance for a Tri-County baseball championship and they'll be shooting the works. VARSITY BASEBALL SCHEDULE Monday, April 4 ............. Upper Dublin ' ....... ....
