T , fuzz. fM....i.,,, of My C-frigid 0 1944 Have you ever stood beside an echo lake - a lake which throws back remarkably and clearly Whatever is shouted? Call names that are unkind and harsh, and those same names will come back, call names that are gentle and courteous, and thats the kind of echo you will hear. Life is that Way. We reap as we sow, and what We sow. Sow hate, and reap contempt. Sow love, and reap friendship. Sow selfishness, and reap loneliness. Sow service, and reap gratitude. Benedict Arnold sowed dis- loyalty and treachery, and reaped disgrace. Washington sowed loyalty and patriotism, and reaped immortality. - We must go half Way, at least, in making friends, in Winning confidence, in acquiring personal power. The successful person goes more than half Way. We must not expect more of others than of ourselves. When we fail to do our share, We cannot have life's best. Unselfish Work asks for no material gains. A kind Word, a noble deed, an exemplary life are never in vain. Some- times the good that comes from upright and helpful living is quickly apparent, but often not. Like some seeds that take a long time to sprout, so do most creditable acts require a long time to bear fruit. Such kindnesses go on and on, increasing in force, and eventually come back to us like the echo from across the lake. ln closing may I hope that the echoes that return to you from time to time will be a real source of satisfaction and pleasure for you.

Four years we spent together Sharing laughs and tears, But now we journey on alone To face life's dreaded tears. To us our goal is hut a dream Which we must make come true, Through our knowledge and your teachings W'e'll succeed in all we do. We will miss you, Alma Mater, Though we will not forget The hours that we spent with you- The hours we'll not regret. As the classes gone before us We, the class ot '44, Must depart and leave you now And hid farewell forevermore. Class Song By CATHARINE SCHELLHASE Though we've spent these years together, Shared our joys and troubles all, Yet rnust come the time of parting, When we hear our duty call. There were times when we were faulty, Many times when we were good, There were times when we would falter, But we've usually firmly stood. F our long years we've spent in high school, We, the class of '44, Working hard and playing fairly, Now we've reached the closing door. x .cfs ecfor Senior Class History Freshman Year-1940-41 ln l94U the Class of l944 entered l-lellertown l-ligh School as so-called green Freshmen. We had lU5 pupils in our class. After a period of readiust- ment, we elected class officers and a class adviser. They were: President ...... .... I ohn Nauman Vice President . . . . ltflarion Reilly Secretary .... ...,. B ettv Shiffer Treasurer .. .... Edward Dugan Mr. Norman B. Fister was elected as our class adviser. Since we were Freshmen, we did not have any activities, but many mem- bers of our class participated in interclass sports. After an eventful year, we welcomed our summer vacation. Sophomore Year-1941-42 After a summer vacation, we again found ourselves back in school for our Sophomore year. Our class now totaled QU energetic students. At our first class meeting we elected the following class officers and class adviser: President ...... .... I ohn Nauman V ice President . . . . Edward Dugan Secretary .... ..,. l Vlarion Reilly Treasurer .... . . . . .... Charlotte Brown Mr. Charles Brown was elected class adviser. The Class sponsored two movies which proved to he a great success financially. On April l7, l942, we held our first dance, The Yankee lam- looree . The dance helped to swell our treasury. As Sophomores, we won the Scholastic Cup for one marking period. Our numerals l944 were engraved on the interclass trophy for having the highest standing in interclass sports. We had unusual athletic ability in our class and proved it by taking second place in the annual field day events. ln the spring of the year we ordered our class rings. Thus, another of our high school years came to a close, and we eagerly looked forward to our first year as Upper-classmen. T219 CQQ eczfor Iunior Year-1942-43 On the return to school we found ourselves in the ranks of upperclassmen. Our class was greatly diminished and we found that 75 students had returned for their lunior Year. At our first class meeting, the following officers were elected: President .......................... lohn Nauman Vice President .... . . . Edward Dugan Secretary ....... . ................ Marion Reilly Treasurer ....................... Charlotte Brown Mr. Charles Brown was elected class adviser. The shadow of war crossed our path as two of our classmates were drafted to serve in the Army. A movie sponsored by the Class helped to boost our treasury. We also sold basketball pins during the basketball season. We sponsored our second Yankee lamboreen, and we held a card party in the high school auditorium. The Valley of Ghosts , our lunior play, was a huge success. Then, after much waiting and anticipation, the eventful date, which marked the day of the Prom , drew nigh. To the strains of loseph Gi11y's Orchestra we gave the Seniors a rousing farewell. Again another year drew to a close, and we realized that our school days would soon be over. Senior Yecxr-1943-44 In the fall of 1943 seventy dignified and serious-minded Seniors returned to their Alma Mater. We found that three more of our classmates were serving in the Navy. At our first class meeting we elected class officers and a class adviser. Mr. Charles Brown was again elected as o They were: President ......................... lames Pearson Vice President .... . . . Ward Richards Secretary ....... . . . . ............ Marion Reilly Treasurer ..................... . . Charlotte Brown ur class adviser. The Reflector Staff was selected, and work on the 1944 yearbook was soon begun. ln the fall of the year we sponsored the annual Masquerade Dance and we sold Christmas Cards and Wrapping Paper. The annual Senior Play, Presenting Polly , was held on December 3 and 4, 1943, before a capacity audience. Our numerals 1944 were engraved on the Scholastic Cup, for attaining the highest average during our Senior Year. The Class of 1944 is proud of the fact that 14 former classmates are now serving with the Armed Forces. As our high school days draw to a close, we look with satisfaction on the history of our high school days, which represent four well-spent, enjoyable years. MARION REILLY. Class Secretary.

THE CLASS OF 1944. Attest: Catherine Steiner Esther Bernhardt escgee ecfor ,1 The Class Prophecy The class of '44 decided that immediately after graduation it would board a train for a trip to Hollywood, California. Our journey began as most do, and nothing extraordinary happened until we made our first stop at Washing- ton, D. C. Elizabeth Sabo, in her characteristic manner, wandered too far and missed the train. When we arrived at historic Richmond, Va., Given Leidich was so entranced by the chant of the tobacco auctioneers that he decided to remain. A few hours later we were exploring the vast caverns of Mammoth Cave, Ky. We left the cave without Frank Rayan, who had evidently become con- fused with his directions. A few hundred miles later, while crossing the Missis- sippi, Louis Kukoda leaned a bit too far out of the window and disappeared. We rushed to the window just in time to see him frantically paddling for shore. Without giving him a futher thought, we hurried on to suffer our greatest mis- fortune at Colorado Springs. Here, our practical joker, E. j. Dugan, uncoupled the last Pullman car containing sixteen members of our class. Eventually we reached sunny California - - it was raining. None of us realized that few would return. TEN YEARS LATER The rest of this tale will be told by two weary travellers of the road, namely, Marie Nagy and Betty Weierbach. 'lr 1' f Il' i' On june 6, 1954, we slowly plodded up to Mr. Brown's home in Heller- town. Here we learned that Arlene Reinert is married to the mayor and lives in a white mansion on Fifth Avenue, a new section of town. Lucy Mataitis, RN., is in the employ of one of the town's new doctors. Her consideration for others has made her a well-liked person in the locality. After a lengthy con- versation with our former class adviser, he told us that Ruth Mease is now managing the Bingen Department Store. The high school girls' basketball team has won the championship for five successive years under the coaching of Charlotte Brown, athletic directress. Dorothy Kilian, school nurse, has raised health standards considerably and attendance is now at its highest peak. Roy Bauder is the new director of the Allentown-Bethlehem Airport and is frequently seen flying overhead in his heliocopter. Evelyn Pluck is employed as his private secretary and often accompanies him on his flights. We were surprised to hear that Elizabeth Sabo and james Pearson are two of Pennsyl- vania's representatives to Congress. These two are outstanding members of the Lower House. We thanked Mr. Brown and explained to him that we were going to retrace the journey the class had made to Hollywood ten years ago. just before we left, we invested our last nickel in a copy of the New York Times and read that joseph Beyer has just returned from Moscow, where he had impressed millions with his interpretations of Shakespeares julius Caesar . Mr. Beyers forthcoming marriage to his leading lady of last geqgon will be his third. The following week we arrived at john Hopkins Hospital, where Kqrl Werkheiser has become one of the outstanding surgeons of the country. Mar- guerite Smoyer is the hospital's directress of nursing. Both Karl and Marguerite have advanced rapidly in the short space of ten years. ln Richmond, we met Given Leidich in a tobacco warehouse, auctioning fine tobacco in his familiar chant. Zak Q . . cgt ec for ..- . .. M- , .. . . .c . We hopped a freight for Kentucky, where we revisited Mammoth Cave in the hope of finding Frank Bayan. We did. As a guide fcr the past ten years, he has become quite familiar with the endless cavems. We left this beautiful Blue Grass State as stowaways on a tugboat headed for Kansas City. Here we finally located the home of Louis Kukoda, who has become a successful carpenter, repairing steamboats. lncidentally, he fre- quently falls from the boats and has become accustomed to swimming the Mis- sissippi. Curious to know what had happened to those sixteen members of our class stranded in Colorado Springs, we traveled to that city. ln the center of the town we saw the first familiar landmark-the Glovas-Ganssle Filling Station. The boys were so busy that they found little time to talk to us. They did, how- ever, direct us to the editor of the Colorado Springs Daily, Gordon Eegley. Starting as a newsboy years ago in Hellertown, he now employs a staff of 65. He told us that Charles Marish is employed at the local foundry lifting 300 pound sacks of rivets. Charlie spends many quiet evenings at home playing solitaire and is the one and only bachelor of our class. lean Ulrich produces the toast of the nation in her modern bakery. She directed us to the newly constructed pre-flight school established by world famous aviatrix, Esther Bern- hardt, and her noted friend, Doris Weida. Both women have broken several speed records. Efficiency expert at the school, Benjamin Buch has saved its owners thousands of dollars with his excellent budgeting. At the General Hos- pital, Dr. Esther Savidgefs surgical skill has made her one of the foremost physicians in the country. Eleanor Wetzel, head nurse at the hospital. has raised its standards to the second highest in the country. At the city university, Doris Helms is the instructor of the botanical department. She has recently published a sensational book entitled, The Flowers and Soil, Harbingers of Spring . Secretary to the university's dean is Agnes Guro. He finds her a valuable assistant. We spent the night at the local tourist home operated by Leia ludd, who is happily married and enjoys both home and husband. Mar- garet Krupa, her neighbor, is the proud owner of a huge mansion bequeathed her by a distant relative. Susan Schneider is operating an exclusive jewelry store, specializing in diamonds. She caters to some of the most famous people in the world. On the outskirts of Colorado Springs, we were impressed by the magnitude of the gold-mining operations engineered by Edward Staffieri. VV ith a last look at this breath-taking spectacle, we forged on to sunny California. We ar- rived - - it was still raining. Our attention was first attracted to the huge film studios of E. I. Dugan, where the production of the picture Men Against the Sky is in full progress. It is based on the book of the same name by David Barnett, who is critically watching the filming of this mighty epic with Marion Beilly, his private secre- tary. , Ready with plaster cast and bandage, Nurse Ruth Vogel is always on hand to attend to accidents on the set. The production co-stars lrene Gozzard and Martin Hallowell, who invited us to watch the shooting of a daring stunt flying scene performed by Martin's stand-in, Charles Geyer. We arrived just in time to hear Helen Duh, Geyer's private nurse, begging him to be careful. A short time later Miss Duh was dextrously attending to Geyer's new injuries. lrene Miller and Gloria Borocky, who have the enormous task of contending with the overwhelming amount of fanmail that pours in for Martin and Irene, told us that Charlie never fails to get hurt. .....,,...- ..... -t Q, ecfoz Cn the set we also met Lt. Commander Edward Mease, who was on special leave to advise the director on the technical points of the scenes at sea. A newcomer to Hollywood is Catharine Schellhase, who has arrived here after a nation-wide tour to make her first picture. Her musical ability has carried her to the concert halls of the world. Another of the private nurses on the set is lane Diehl, winner of Congressional honors for gallant service in the post- war reconstruction period. Publicity manager and press agent, Harry Frey, and his assistant, Catherine Sterner, are invaluable to the E. l. Dugan Film Studios. Miroslaw Pasternak's amazing new technique of producing a three- dimensional effect on film, has made pictures more realistic than ever before. Hair stylist, Ann Vuksta, and make-up artist, Helen Mindock, have used their magical touch to transform many a homely creature into a vision of loveliness. Martha Skibo, costume designer and creator of the famed Martha gown, is another member of this huge staff. She and Puera Kohler, who specialize in fabric design and color combinations, have made Hollywood the fashion center of the world. Both women have been voted among the ten best-dressed women in the country . The studio is also producing a musical-comedy, The Corn Grows Wild , which features the Ward Richards -Betty Shiffer dance team. This pair, which is thrilling the entire nation with its matchless rhythm, will perform the most intricate dance steps ever imagined. Kenneth Rice, Hollywood's comedian, will be at his best when he sings his latest hit, Don't Sit Under the Rainspout With Anyone Else But Me. Drip, in his own unique manner. Famous swing king Rodney Nickum's rollicking renditions of red-hot rhythm are certain to make the musical a success. On another set, Ruth Richards and Betty Hader are rapidly rising to star- dom. Both girls have established themselves as character actresses and will play leading roles in a forthcoming picture. A bit confused with all the complications of this large studio, we walked into the director's office and were pleasantly surprised to find Margaret Skrilecz. She has directed many Academy Award winning pictures and Men Against the Sky is headed for the same distinction. On our way from the studio, we met Mary Soldo, filmland's star news reporter and columnist. Mary told us the most confidential gossip about the latest in Hollywood. Fred Panasiuk is a cab driver in Los Angeles. That evening we dropped in at William Zimpfer and Richard Yob's exclu- sive night club, The Black Panther . We we-re warmly welcomed by Gladys Zimpher, who has been the club's hostess ever since its opening. The Panthers entertainment is said to be the best in the country. ln the Blue Room, Albert Mease's orchestra features Naomi Peiffer in some of the most original arrangements of the blues. Art Reiss' tive band in the Torrid Room delivers some of the most solid music since Harry lamesp a great deal of Art's success can be attributed to his accordionist, Dorothy Unangst. The whole nation is trying to copy the remarkable style of his two vocalists, Loretta Frey and Betty King, but no other voices have blended so beautifully as theirs. And so, having accounted for everyone of the class of '44, we returned here to tell this tale to you. Transcribed by: Marie Nagy Betty Weierbach loseph Beyer Most Comical Girl .... . . .
