Within a year the-happy times, which we are having at our Alma Mater, will soon pass and we shall go to meet and overcome the problems of an exact- ing world. ' l . l I We take this means of expressing our gratitude to all who helped to make this book a success. For this achievement of our undertak- ing, we wish to thank our faithful friend and adviser, Mr. H. G. Sensinger. 4 ' Our Year Book is merely a brief resume of our High School ac tivities. It contains for the Hrst time, articles and pictures pertaining to the-junior High School, established at the beginning of this term. The editing of this book means much to our class, for it is the only definite record of our High School days. We hope that our readers may find a truer appreciation of both students and school life and that a. closer unification of classes might be accomplished through the publication of this annual. Thus it is with a small degree of confidence that wepresent the ninth volume of Gachtin Bambil, asking that students, alumni, and friends judge kindly our work. lf it helps you to recall happy school days and brings a buoyancy of spirit to the hearts of those who still call this Our School, and brings to those ready to pass from this institution, a deeper under- standing, we shall have accomplished our purpose.

At our first class meeting the Htting motto, No Victory Without Labor, was chosen. Using this as a guide we set out to prove that our superiority was not in numbers alone but in scholastic activities and other phases of school work as well. This was evi- denced by the fact that members of the class played quite important parts in athletics, music, debating, and oratory. However the law of the survival of the fittest greatly depleted our ranks and only seventy-eight members returned as Sophomores Nevertheless we had profited by a year's experience and what was lacking in numbers was doubly supplanted by class and school spirit. The winning of the Freshman-Sophomore football game and the boy's and girl's interclass basket ball championships were the social events enjoyed by the class. When we entered our junior year we found many tasks to be accomplished, the greatest of these being the publication of our Gachtin' Bambil. We at once elected a staff which worked earnestly and conscientiously throughout the entire year to produce this annual of the High School's activities. Another feature of this year was the presentation of Captain Applejackj' our class play. So This is London, a three-act comedy presented by a stock company, and Springtime, a musical comedy, composed entirely of school talent, were the other important projects employed, by the class to make the year book a success hnancially. We demonstrated our ability in athletics by taking first place in the lnte11iClass track meet and by the fact that the class was also well represented on the varsity teams of the other sports. The only regret felt by the class during this period was the passing away of A. Shuler Kreidler, one of its most valued members. . Sixty-four members of the class of '28 returned as Seniors to complete the last lap of their High School course. Never before were we so enthusiastic and ready to accomplish big things. The Three Gracesf' a play with the plot centering about a college football hero, was presented very successfully by members of the class. We again were well represented in all scholastic and extra-curricular activities. We wish at this time to express our sincere appreciation to all our teachers and friends who have worked with us to make our high school course a pleasant and a successful one. We also hope that when a resume' is made of our activities, we may ever stand as a credit to our community and to our Alma Mater. And when the goal for which we have been striving is att'ained, viz., Graduation may the members of f28 go out into life having learned that there is No Victory Without Labor. E. D. E.

As Freshmen we were rather green and remained in the background leaving the Big Works for the other classes. ln our Sophomore year we came into limelight and participated in all events including Athletics, Debating, and Oratory. During this year our Girls Basketball team won the inter-class championship by defeating all the other class teams. We have arrived at our biggest year, for this time brings the production of Gacht'in Bambil. Our Staff has been working hard ever since the beginning of the school term, in order to produce the best Year Book ever published. lt was through their efforts that the play That's That was a success. Many 'members of our class are represented on the Varsity Basketball Teams. Our candidates in the Oratorical Contests were very successful. They carried away all honors and are eagerly looking forward to the County Contests. We are still working on to our Senior Year, hoping we may continue the friend- ships we have formed and believing always that, The higher we climb the broader the view. E. K.

Our first social event was participating in the Hallowe'en Parade in which we did well, securing second prize. Other events followed which were heartily entered by all. We eagerly awaited the coming of the sport events. First came Football with Franz Kline representing us as half-back on the varsity football squad and as captain led our Freshman team to victory. Our Freshman team played well in the interscholastic football game. The rest of the Class turned out and cheered them on to victory in the game with the Sophomores. , l In both basketball and track we acquitted ourselves favorably. In our literary and scholastic work we have done our part and hope to keep on going at the pace we set in our Freshman Year. F. P. B.

AGACHTIN BAMBIL Football History of 1927 The football season of 1927 'was the most successful Lehighton High School has had since it adopted football as a major sport. The season opened with the Immaculate Conception as the oppos- ing team, the Maroon and White machine being victorious. The next game was played with Summit Hill and resulted in our defeat. Our following game was with Stroudsburg. The end of the first half saw the score 6-o in favor of the Canary and Blue team. Lehighton High came back strong in t'he second half and scored I3 points. The hrst game on foreign soil was played at Northampton. Our warriors brought home news of a 12-o victory. Our second defeat, which proved to be the last, was received at the hands of lnter-Chunk. For the Hrst time in the football history of Lehighton High School and Nesquehoning. L. H. S. defeated the coal region boys, IQ-0. ln the game with Palmerton, Lehighton High's Hghting spirit was not aroused until our opponents had scored six points. Two touchdowns and a safety were scored in the second half, making the Gnal score I4- 6 in our favor. The curtain was lowered on the 1927 campaign with a 13-6 vic- tory over the Alumni. This proved to be a closely contested game as the score indicates. Lehighton High now holds the edge on the Alumni, having won two out of the three games played between these teams. 1. M. Y.

By reason of a 1 3-6 score, the Freshmen were acclaimed the victors. ln the latter part of the Hrst quarter, the Sophomores executed a neat end run, which gave them their only touchdown. The Sophs then kicked off to the Freshmen, and the quarter ended with the Freshmen in possession of the ball on the Soph's 40 yard line. The teams changed goals, and the Freshmen started a 60 yard march down the field, which resulted in a touchdown. The extra point was scored on a forward pass. The Freshmen kicked off to the Sophs, and the half ended with neither team gaining an advantage. During the third quarter, neither team was able to score. With the beginning of the fourth period, the Frosh took on new life, and started another march down the Held, which netted them another sixpointer. They tried for the point' after the touchdown and failed. The quality of football played by these teams was not indicative of Freshmen and Sophomore elevens, but was suggestive of High School Varsities. With such material as composed the teams, Lehigh- ton High need never worry about the calibre of its future Varsities. Football Line-up for Freshmen-Sophomore Game FRESHMEN SOPHOMORES .

In spite of the fact that we only won t'hree games, the fighting morale that makes championship teams was always present. The early part offthe season was more or less experimental. Coach Fritch tried out different combinations. Held and Hahn, Forwardsg Ratcliife, Centerg Fritzinger and Mertz, Guards, were selected. This quintet caused the league leaders a con- siderable amount of trouble. Frequent substitution gave practical experience to the Sub-Varsity. Only three men will be lost by graduation. This means that seven men, all of them with some experience will return next season. ' ' Despite all adverse criticism the team did its best at all times. j. IVI. Y.

Nevertheless, before the season was ended. our girls came back to win and. though our opponents fought hard, our team seemed to walk away with most ol them. The games that we lost were only given over to our opponents by a very narrow score and then after strenuous combats. The team showed its training and teamwork when it very ably tied the score with Emaus, who then held second place in the league. We also held tied scores with Nazareth. Next year our team should hold first place in the league as we expect to have all the present members of the team, with the exception ol' three, back at work on the gym floor. Nl. li. Nl. '20.

Of the hfteen games played, twelve were victories, one ended in a ties: one resulted in a defeat 3 the other was forfeited to us by Stroudsburg. In the spring of 1926, baseball was adopted as a new sport. The first team won the championship of the then newly formed Lehigh Valley Baseball League. With over half of the first year's pennant winning team back as a nucleus to build around, the second championship team for Lehighton High. Leading the League, Lehighton High bowled over every team in the circuit until they encountered Northampton at that place. With the score 4-4, the game was called in the eighth inning on account of rain. The following Saturday Lehigh- ton High again journeyed to Northampton to play off the tie. By turning us back with a 9-5 score, Northampton succeeded in administering to Lehighton their second defeat in two years. The rapid pace that Lehighton High had set-that of a High School team playing four games in one week-had begun to tell on our nine when Northampton defeated us. The last game of the season, which was to be played at Stroudsburg, was for- feited to Lehighton as Stroudsburg's team disbanded earlier in the season. Although four men were lost by graduation and two more are ineligible, pros- pects for the third championship team are bright. 1. 1v1. Y. '29 Baseball Schedule Date 1 Team Place L. H. S. OPP.

H. S. track team ol' 1o27. known to other schools as the boys clad in white, upheld the established reputation of the little wonder team. On Saturday, April 3o, our relay team, consisting of Nlertz, Langkammer, Bretney and Miller, took part in the Penn relays at Philadelphia. This was the first time in three years that L. H. did not finish first in its class. However we came out a close third. On a rainy morning, our team journeyed to Lehigh Lniversity at Bethlehem, to participate in the P. l. A. A. state championship. Despite the unfavorable weather. our team made a good showing. A week of practice and the boys wearing spikes for Lehighton High traveled to the Franklin and Marshall meet at Lancaster on May 21. Besides winning the relay race in record time, we took second place in Class B. We returned home with a Plaque, and a number of medals. On Saturday, May 28, the team participated in the Perkiomen meet at Penns- burg, and made a deeper impression of Lehighton's supremacy on the cinders, in the minds of track fans. The Hrst annual Lehigh Valley lnterscholastic track meet was held on Muhlen burg Field, May 30. L. H. S. won this meet with 7552 points. Lehighton High took the majority of hrst places, establishing records which will be hard to break. The annual Carbon County meet was held on our own track, on june ii. All the events were closely contested. Summit Hill, coached by a former Lehighton l-ligh track star. took second place. Lehighton High won the cups for the meet and the relay. The season closed with the High School handing the Alumni an overwhelming defeat, this being the Hrst meet of its kind. M. E.

E Gym Team Activities On sawfday, March 24, the Lehighton High -School Gym Team traveled to Stroudsburg to participate in an athletic con- test. The six towns represented in the contest were Easton, Pal-- merton, East Stroudsburg, Boyertown, Nesquehoning and Lehighton. Our team was co-mlprised of six girls and six boys. Both girls and boys did marching and calisthenics. The girls then gave one -required dance and one optional dance g -the boys used tumb- ling instead. The evening program constituted work on the high bar, horse, and parallel bars by the boys. This wasrtile first time in the history of our school that such a team represent-ed the work taught in regular gymnasium classes, and the event opens a new and piromising Field for us. In the regular contest, .the team came out fifth and in the extra work we came out second. In both cases, Easton Junior High School came out first. Despite the low standing, the teams did fine work and in future'-mee-ts of this kind, we are certain that liehighton High will come out nearer tbq goal. A'-M. M.

Debating Teams Affirmative Team Negative Team GACHTIN BAMBIL 7 5 Oratory and Debating 9 Another' year has passed and we Gnd ourselves in the midst of a new era of debating and oratory. lt would be useless for me to attempt to comment upon the progress and ad- vancement that has presented itself in contests,iwhich have thus far taken place. That is self-evident. , One fact concerning. this year's. accomplishment deserves particular attention, that is, that more students have been benefited by the work done in public speaking than ever before. The complete aim of the Club has not been realized, but it has been more nearly attained than in previous years and there is reason to believe that the Club's activities will continue to broaden and improve along the lines of welfare for the individual' students. The boys' and girls' Oratorical Elimination Contests were held on january 6, 1928 and january 20, 1928 respectively. The participants and their subjects were as follows: BOYS Milton Rosenberg- The Meaning of tbe Constitution. Walter N iehotf- Alexander Hamilton and the Constitution. Earl Beaver- The Constitution of the United States. - GIRLS Valance Townsend- As a Man Tbinketbf' Marguerite Miller- True Americanismf' Ellen Langkammer- Mother Marion Weiss- Follow the Gleamf' Milton Rosenberg was chosen boy representative with Walter Niehotf as alter- nate. A change of residence prohibited Milton from being our contestant. Walter Niehoff as alternate was unable to represent the school because of certain circum- stances which had arisen. Earl Beaver was therefore chosen to speak for Lehigh- ton in the National and County Oratorical Contests. . - Ellen Langkammer is the girl representative with Valance Townsend as alter- nate. She will participate in the jane Adams and the County Contests. Debating has called forth many more students than in any previous year. With two teams in the Held the school is well represented and promises a success- ful season.. Our affirmative team defeated Nesquehoning High School by a unanimous vote, on the question-Resolved: That a High Protective Tariff, as a permanent policy, promotes the best interests of the United States. The same team will debate our traditional enemy, Mauch Chunk, on April 5, 1928.

Every Monday morning, it can be heard practicing on the stage of the Lehighton High School. Last year the Orchestra went to Stroudsburg, Where it gave a concert for the Rotarians and the student body of the East Strouds- burg Normal School. Due to its great success in rendering this con- cert, the Orchestra received an invitation to compete in an Orchestra contest to be held at Stroudsburg this year. Carbon County Music Night would not he complete without the Lehighton lligh School Orchestra. Next year, as every year, it will lose many members, but through Mr. Yenser's competent leadership. the Grade Orchestra will con- tribute much valuable material. . ' M. B. ll. '2o.

GACHTIN BAMBIL The High School Band This is the first time in the history of the lligh School that the band has been given an hour for rehearsal during school time. By this act. the growing importance of a high school band is shown. The lligh School band has never been the complete success that the students have desired until this year, Now it has a good instru- mentation and is as capable ol' rendering concert music as of playing marches. T The band is under student leadership, and with no authoritative teacher to keep watch for grievances. the members are placed on their honor. Thus far this system has worked well. lt will be only zt matter of a year or two, now, before the band will have as widespread a reputation as the High School Orchestra. llntil that time its progress lies in the hands ol its members. Success will be assured il' they will but work. l.. W. K. '28. GACHTIN BAMBIL 7 9 Personnel of Band TRUMPETS R. Snyder .............,... j. Kresge ........ W. Christman .... H. Balliet ......

The plot of Tbat's That was based on the love affair of Kenneth Neilson, son of a wealthy bottle king, who, while posing as a life guard under the name of Kenneth jones, rescued and fell in love with Eloise Reswick-a Palm Beach society belle. Kenneth does not reveal his identity, wishing to continue his romance under his as- sumed- name, and when his father and sister arrive at the beach he manages to elude his parent, but he is discovered by his sister. just as he is embracing her, he is found by Eloise, and being unable to explain his actions, without revealing his identity, many difhculties arise. Mrs. Suthweld, Eloise's aunt and chaperone, is opposed to the romantic inclinations of her niece toward a mere lifeguard, because she is unaware that Kenneth is heir to the Neilson fortune. One Eddy Dewey took the part of comedian. He represents a young man from the Styx. At the resort he is spurned by his former sweetheart, Letitia, also from the Styx, but now a social climber. Martin Morris, Kenneth's roommate at college, pronounced himself a woman hater until he meets Kenneth's flirtatious sister Nannette, who captivates his heart. Humorous phrases, brought in by Micky Sullivan and Mamie Riemer from Avenue HA in the Bowery, contributed much to the laughter and pep of the play. Eventually everything is straightened out to everyone's satisfac- tion and all learn who's who, which is which, what s what, and that's that. Miss Leah Drumheller ,25 ably accompanied the musical num- bers and deserves much credit for assisting her Alma Mater. The principal characters were: Eloise Reswick ............ . ..

Exhibition a Success The first Gymnasium Exhibition of our High School was held on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, March 27 and 28, and was ,very largely attended. The gymnasium was crowded both nights and the crowds were both entertained and thrilled by the exercises and stunts performed by the boys and girls. The first event, marching by the boys of the seventh grade, was done exceptionally well: This captivated the attention and interest of the large audiences, from the beginning and as the program went on with the different events interest did not wane. From the many favorable comments heard this hrst exhibition must be stamped, as a wonderful success, and it reflects great credit upon the untiring efforts of Miss Obert and lVlr. Wilbur who direct this work of our schools. GACHTIN BAMBIL Clubs Lehighton High School can boast of a large number of success- ful clubs within its scope.
