Four years we have labored together, Each striving to reach his own goal, And each in the course of his striving I-las worked for the good of the whole. There may have been misunderstandings And there may have been errors made, too: Though some have not risen to honor, They offered the best that they knew. Then hail to clear Liberty High School! And hail to the red and the blue! To those who have worked for her glory That she might stand honored and true. All hail to our true-hearted teachers! Wlxo have worked and been spent for our good, And hail to our class-twenty-seven- A cheer for our real brotherhood! And now that our classes are over, The coveted sheepskin is won, But: all of life's work is before us, And all of life's race to be run. May each one be swift in the running, And may each of us meet with success- ln serving and helping our fellow Find his and our own happiness.

With the remains of a second-hand alarm-clock, a junked radio set, and a wrecked baby carriage, he could easily construct an apparatus capable of conversing with Mars or supplying the city of Freemansburg with power and light. He doesn't know what he will be when he gets out of high school, but he believes he will invent something For this reason we are sure he will some day be classed with such men as Edison, Steinmetz and Marconi. Industrial Course. AGNES Ac.REs'r Aggie l'lere's another! Yes Aggie is another one of these quiet girls-when she's in school. We've recently discovered that Agnes is a hero-worshipper, some one from Lafayette being the object of her affections. Commercial Course. AMES AHRENS jimmy jas 'jim D Good things generally arrive in small sizes, one more reason for Jim's being exceedingly good-natured and valuable as a friend. I-le is very modest and is never heard boasting about what he can do. These are only a few of his good qualities. As a scholar he ranks high. This does not prevent him from seeing each and every football game: he hasn't missed one since he arrived at B. H. S. We wish you lots of luck, Jim, in life. Academic Course.

Bill is one of our most prominent singers, having been a member of the Glee Club since his freshman days. Besides singing, he studies quite a bit. He is a regular customer on the honor roll and doesn't just slip on, either. l-le is a great painter, too, although he is rather modest about displaying his products. So, you see, Liberty will lose quite a talented person when he graduates. Scientific Course. Orchestra, 25 Glce Club, I-2-3-45 Class His- loryg Art Club, 2-3-45 Lucas Littcrarum, 3. EVELYN ESTELLE ALEXY Eve' ' It isn't often that you can find a real, dignified, serious-minded senior among the fair sex. However, Evelyn is one of the exceptional ones. From intimate class- mates only, can you learn that in her four years of I-ligh School, she was never scolded by any teacher for some foolish or rash act. This isn't the only trait Evelyn possesses, for she is an established and per- manent member on honor ,and high honor rolls. We know that Evelyn will succeed. SCiCnlifC Course.

Almost any day you can see his car stop to pick up one of Dame Fashiorfs admirers. I-le is a well-known ladies' man. Scientifc Course. BERNARD APPEL Bernard Bernard is the kind of a boy that finds a way or makes it. When all others have given up, as impossible, the solving of that intricate chemical equation, Bernard Still pursues some faint lead, until at last he emerges from the pile of papers-with the equation solved. Naturally he has the respect of all the teachers and, WC daresay, that of his fellow classmates. In parting we have to say, Bernard, Keep on finding a way or making it. Scientific Course. I KATHRYN ALICE ARMSTRONG Tass Tass is one of the beauties of our class. She is quite popular and her acl- mirers are numerous. With one exception, she seems to prefer college men to high school boys. Besides having good looks, Tass is clever, and has loads of sparkling personality. She is quite a mermaid fthe fact is, she swims like a lishj. Kathryn is entering Dickinson next year. Academic Course.

He is full of talent and capable of doing greater things than he has done, if something would stir him to greater attempts. For sports he has been content to remain on a minor team instead of showing that he was fitted for a higher team. If some spark ever happens to light that force of ambition within him, we shall see him do something worthy of praise. Scientific Course. Fooiball, 3-4.

If he stays at his work and remains as quiet as he is in school, he will be a success. General Course. Football, 2-3, Baseball, 2. FRANK BARTOS Frank Frank is known to every student in the high school, because of his exploits on the football field, also basketball and baseball. We will be very sorry to see Frank go, because he is a boy who will always give us his best, in all the things that he ever undertakes. The girls of the school find Frank exceedingly attractive, and they all seem to be rushing him. Scientific Course. Football, 3-4, Captain, 45 Basketball, 3-4, Baseball, 3-4. KENNETH JOSEPH BAUDER Ken Don't worry, about Valentino, Ken's still living and he will live a long while. Happy-go-lucky and get there, that is Ken, and he usually does get there. For a good time Ken would give up a meal any day. But that's all right, Kenny keep merry and all your worries will vanish, for after all that is why we are on this earth, to keep worry at arm's distance. Ken's motto which will make him a success is, Smile for smile, and smile will smile for you. Commercial Course.

If you don't, we will feel that we have been deprived, but you will let us know you better, won't you? Commercial Course. PAUL BEHNEY Bainey One of the most happy-go-lucky fellows is Bainey. Although he never worries, things usually work out for him. Paul is a very good-naturecl and generous fellow. I-le admires the girls and the girls admire him.

During her brief stay she made many friends, mainly by her cheerful dis- position and ever-wagging tongue. Talk? Well you should hear her! However, that's natural for a. girl. Girls, as a rule, become either nurses or teachers, and Tilly is no exception. She intends to become a nurse. We all wish you success. lVlIC1-IAEL BLACKSTONE Mike Blackyu ZOLTAN Brno Zoli No need to discover Biro's particular talent. Zoli almost makes a fiddle stand up and beg. If he continues to charm audiences of the future as he has those of the past, there's no need to hope for his success. But chemistry infringes on practice, for as an experimental chemist he is there. We feel sure success is just around the corner. Scientific Course. L. H. S. Orchestra, l-2-3-4, Concert Meister, 4.

She is not always in a pensive mood as we see her here. lndeed not! ln fact, she has a gift for gab and makes use of it when she's supposed to be listening to some grave teacher. If ever you want Ruth, just look for Helen K-, and you'll find her. Brighty expects to be a teacher. We hope that she'll be as good a teacher as she is a friend. Scientijic Course. ALEXANDER BROUGHAM Bill Every one around school knows the big Lug, probably not only because of his eternal talking. Bill was one of our athletes until they decided that eight years in high school was a little too long for him to play. Bill is sort of a per- manent fixture in the high school. He has lately taken to writing songs about a girl. General Course. Swimming, 2-35 Basketball, 35 Track, 3.

Helena doesn't know as yet what her ambition is, but she is busy searching for one. When she once finds it we know she will make good use of SARAH Buss Bussy Believe me if all those endearing young charms. Sarah is one of our popular seniors.

Kid is one of our very quiet and bash- ful boys in school, but outside of school, watch his dust.

It, does seem hard to believe that a little fellow like him can have so much pep and energy stored in him to play soccer in a style as he does.

After being dismissed to our rooms, which we frantically sought in all parts of the building, we became acquainted with our fond teachers whose sight we were to grace during the ensuing years. What strange faces there were: faces from the South Side Junior High School, from Nitschmann and from Liberty Junior High School, all mixed together into one Sophomore Class, the class of l927. As luck would have it, we had some difficult problems which presented them- selves in various forms. Some of us were worried about class officers and their duties. However, after a feverish campaign, the following executives of the class were finally announced: Apollo Frank Cincel, presidentg handsome Richard Lattig, vice-president: enticing Harriet Ward, secretaryg His lVlajesty William Fulrner, treasurer. Another of our class problems was dues, which all of us agreed to pay and which some of us, to be sure, did. Still another con- flicting problem was harassing our minds, that of studies, for no one appreciated the fact that we were geniuses of the first degree. To conclude our sophomore year we were promoted to the Junior Class. Of course, all of us hated to leave the Sophomore Class, but the Junior Class had to be filled. Very reluctantly we emerged from our sophomore pleasures, par- ticularly the examinations, which, we trusted, would give just as much pleasure to the class of 1928, as they had afforded us. We became more famous every year-yes, we. We were juniors with all the privileges of the fortunate ones. Those chosen to pilot the craft of i927 were: Tick jenkins, presidentg Ewing Julstedt, vice-presidentg Georgine Feld- man, secretaryg Bob Gaffney, treasurer. To our surprise and much more to our displeasure, work was required in our junior year, too. Nevertheless, those pleasant moments spent in workng those bewitching, enticing physics problems or those elevating, educational Cicero translations will be imprinted in our minds as moments fhours?D of rare delight and inexpressible joy. Men will be men in assuming their place in the world, so we, according to custom, won the Allentown game. The juniors also chalked down a favorable mark by their valuable assistance in I-I. M. S. Pinaforef' with Truman Reese as the valiant captain. Soon exams were over. Each student sat in suspense, timidly awaiting the just reward of a year's work so faithfully completed. So, uneventfully, we passed from juniors to high and mighty seniors. Again a shining, bright September morn was the delegate who escorted us to the doors of Bethlehem's foremost institution of learning. What a stern welcome those stolid, forbidding doors extended to our emotional hearts! Our spirits arose with the realization that we were seniors, the most highly educated Page Une Hundred Fiflcen and completely informed in the entire building. CDid l hear a protest from a teacherllj Our rapturous souls were to experience the thrill of participating in all senior activities. In our hands was placed the responsibility of producing something exceptionally and noticeably worth while, something, which, in the later stages of our existence, might be looked upon with pride, as an expression and realization of our capabilities. The activities this year, l am sure, have given the desired results. We are assured that the outstanding possibilities of the geniuses of its members will rise to universal honor, undying fame and overwhelming success. The class of '27 seemed to know good men when they saw them, for three of the oflicers of the junior year were re-elected. Richard Lattig, aristocratically held the sceptre as president: Ewing Julstedt again became vice-president: Georgine Feldman, secretaryg Bob Gaffney, treasurer, who is best described by- He has red hair and freckles, and handles the shelcelsf' The year finally came to a close. Each graduating student had satisfactorily completed his high school career and was about to jump from the precipice of education and training into the swirling rapids of humanity, which swerves in every direction to gain its own satisfaction. It was not the purpose of school to make the stones in the whirl of existence softer, neither was its purpose that of supplying one with life-preservers to prevent his being submerged in the rapid's treacherous and engulfing depths. The purpose of our career in this school was to learn to help the human race in its unmerciful struggle for existence and progress, so that the world might benefit by our perseverance and pertinacity. WILLIAM ALCORN, '27 Page One Hundred Sixteen u last will anti Testament of the gliuhle Qtlass nf 1927 We, the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-seven, having supposedly attained that degree of intelligence necessary to leave these noble halls of learning, are about to pass on and become history. After much meditation, due contemplation, and just consideration, being of sound intellect and reason, we hereby publish, declare and make known, this, our last Will and Testament, revoking all previous wills and testamentary papers of any nature. To our worthy successors to senior privileges, the juniors, we bestow our distinct and individual characteristics which have endeared us to our grieving faculty. We also give to them the center seats in chapel, the widest aisles in the locker-rooms, first place for change and soup in the cafeteria and the choicest rooms on the third floor.

Erma Thomas passes on to Cecelia Tabachnik her prowess on the basketball court. Bill Fulmer presents to Eldridge Moses his odorous pipe and dashing air. Bob Gaffney hands over to Jackie Meyers, his favor at the office and in 31 l. Veronica Dechnik passes on her palette and brushes to UBob Glassmire. Frederick Gehr inherits Lyman l-leller's scholastic abilities and honor buttons. Claire Meyers reluctantly leaves Bob Foote, that handsome sprinter, to any girl in the Junior Class who is subtle enough to enslave him. Schrympie Weaver confers her charming rotundity to that brunette siren of the Junior Class, Ethel Alice Small. , Eddie Wilder leaves his heart behind him-I mean Louise Nye-and fervently hopes a successor may be long in appearing, and unsuccessful in filling his place. Georgine Feldman wills her innumerable virtues and many charms to Ethel Dutt. Johnny Miller gives Charlie Riegel permission to carry on the title of Beau Brummeln of his class: as an additional favor, he gives HCharlie his tailor's address. Adam Polcrack, that envied and much pursued Latin prodigy, gives his talent to Pearl Kichline. Harold Weiss, our class Paderewski, charges David Weiss to uphold the honor of the name. Eddie Weisenberg is released from his office as general manager of the High School. Lester Fisher will competently replace him.

To Arthur Anwyll, Dick Freudenberger wills his school girl complexion: he advises Fleischman's yeast. Kitty Koffel, the reason why so many gentlemen prefer blondes, graciously relinquishes what is left of her peroxide to Harriet Seems. Dick Palmer hands down to Bobbie Farabaugh his compact versatility and ability to irritate our long-suffering faculty. Truman Reese, the golden-throated tenor, retires in favor of Benton Whitemeyer. Elwood Schlotter's bustling, breathless air is inherited by George Brown. To Bill Reese, Dick Riegel transfers his wide grin and smooth line of reasons for not having done his lessons. Marie McCarthy charges Victor Sheridan with the safe-keeping of her book of excuses for being late in 3l I. Zoltan Biro holds his brother Frank responsible for the endurance of the Byronic tie and musical genius. Dick Clark may have Leo Cowling's post at the third floor girls' lockers.

Johnny Howard, another paragon of conduct and scholarship, places his halo upon the deserving brow of Ferdinand Burkhardt. ' Joe Henry, Bob Foote and Craig Roberts are willed Bart Dietrech's, Emanuel Scoblionko's and Bill Brougham's seats at the end of the table nearest the girls in the cafeteria. The Armstrong-Jenkins, Vveaver-Gaffney and Petrikin-Metzger alliances give their fivorite rendezvous to the Koehler-l-leske, Earich-Moses and ,Iulstedt-Sellers, insepara- es. In addition to these individual gifts and responsibilities we sincerely hope our suc- cessors of l928 will uphold the standards of the school as we, the preceding classes, have striven todo. May they add to the honor and glory of the school and prove themselves worthy of their position as the Senior Class of Liberty High School. To the faculty we leave the memory of our sagacious bearing and willing obedience, also the honor of having gently guided and instructed these future statesmen, presidents and street-cleaners which comprise the eminent and illustrious class of l927. Respectfully submitted by the executors, Edward M. Wilder and Catherine Zack, and subjected to the approval of the deceased in this year of our Lord one thousand, nine hundred and twenty-seven. Page One Hundred Eighiecn Qllass ibrupbenp It was in july, nineteen hundred and forty-one, when Bethlehem again celebrated one of its world-famous expositions and Liberty Day was a gala day. The members of the class of nineteen twenty-seven held their reunion in the entire ground, beginning at the Liberty Building. Crowds arrived in all kinds of conveyancesg from airships to kiddy cars, as some had already reached their second childhood. Among the first to be greeted was our old friend, Leo Cowling. He had come early so his children wouldn't miss any of the day's pleasures, for he confided to me, confidentially, that the old Ford had fallen to pieces and he didn't often get away. Noticing, what appeared to be a familiar face, l found Leonard Keim, who had just come in from the farm with a load of early cabbages, thinking this would be a good time to dispose of them. With him were Ralph Bond and his wife, who was bound to see that he did not take in all the sights and be led astray by the numerous temptations of the big city. More familiar faces appeared rapidly, some coming alone, others in groups, one group being comprised of a troupe of chorus girls, Thelma Reed, Helen Snyder, Evelyn Alexy, Ruth Bright, Catharine Frantz, Leona Bevan and Florence Nash, whom, l was told, were just making a decided hit in the new opera, The Trail of the Lonesome Pine. Another group arrived. Paul Behney, Grant Snyder and Marguerite Lubold had organized a home for stray cats. The two inseparables, Beatrice Harris and Stella Hinnerschitz, arrived, each carrying a basket, without which they never ventured abroad since stray cats are liable to be encountered anywhere. just then johnny Miller came striding up the aisle, a grin from ear to ear. No wonder! he was enjoying his third honeymoon, happy bride this time grinning as though she'd caught the biggest fish in the ocean. My attention was then drawn to an old man, entering with tottering steps, whom, I discovered to my amazement, was our old friend Truman Reese. He told me he was still single, for, during his experiences as an actor, he had learned that love was like an apple pie-a little bit of crust with a lot of apple- sauce. Directly behind him was a towering figure, Alexander William Brougham, whom, l learned, had become so attached to Liberty High that he was now serving there as janitor. One of his chief joys in life was to pick up the remains of chemistry experiments strewn on the floor of Bill Emery's room. Being as good natured as ever he consented to describe and locate for us, many of our old friends. Dick Riegel was pulling down a princely salary posing as an arrow collar man. Robert Graney, giving up his idea of becoming an instructor in one of the city's parks, was teaching children how to play volley ball. ' Kitty Koffel, whose fame had been achieved by her latest composition in music- Automobiling with Walter, still was, Claire Meyers, Hheartbreakerf' was still at the old game, Using tact, the fellows to attract. However, a certain Bob is said to be at the head of the list. Bernard Appel, Julia Stefko, Gladys Meyers and Wilbur Keiper, plus a few more of our musicians, had all joined a traveling minstrel show and were giving night enter- tainments on the hill to hill bridge. Bill's chest expanded with pride when he informed us of the fact that the class of '27 had contributed a fair quota to the faculty of Liberty High. When Mr. Gruver had retired, his place was ably filled by Principal Edward Wilder. Barbara Galt, who never lost her love for the French room, was now presiding there. After finding that lovers were both vain and fickle, Arlene Smith was doing 'her best to fill the vacancy left in 31 l. Bill also informed us that none could take the place of our beloved Miss McKee, but Wilhemina Klinger, a now famous music instructress, secured to fill her place, was Page One Hundred Nineteen holding a Charleston tournament between classes. To be sure, last but not least, Eugene Eckert was now the art teacher. Martha Mack and Marion Reeser were queens of the Hcafn and the old motto remained- Every day in every way, it is getting better and better. The l-ligh School Band, from its humble beginning, had become a famous organiza- tion which, under the iron ruling of Lu Leidich, gave annual concerts in l-lellertown. Harry Groman from his untiring efforts to keep time, had been promoted to position of drum major, where he could watch the alluring charms of Polly Miller, who attended all concerts. Lu's strongest supporters were Charlie Lease, Francis White and Elwood Miller, who had furnished her with many new recruits. To say nothing of the fast Pauline Getz, Veronica Dechnik and Emma Rankey, would be a crime. These watchfully attended every rehearsal in order to escort their lesser halves home. Charles Schmidt, Walter Hein and Paul Stauffer had become professors at various universities. Burton Dorn had become famous as a designer of women's bathing suits. S Ethel Swo's sunny disposition caused her to be the best loved woman in the U. S. enate. Zoltan Biro, Ruth Koehler and Ella Hewitt, whose love of music had lured them to Germany, had by now become famous. Genevieve Giering was still roaming through every metropolis and nearby town in search of her ideal, tall and wealthy. Harry Carter had been made head manager of a chain of Asco,' stores, where John Baran and Henry Cropper were his able assistants. utlohnnyu l-loward was president of the Garbage Union of Washington, D. C., which position he had attained through the aid of Alice McFadden, a bashful but domi- neering member of the Board of Health. Jimmy Maloney had taken over the management of the Smoker's Paradise and the flourishing Diana Theatre. His success as a manager had been entirely due to his wise selection of ushers, Ray l-leirnpel and Carl Spogen. I-larry Trend had successfully gained his seat in the senate at l-larrisburg. Catharine Ott was also the female senator, an anti-prohibitionist. Both her good looks and winning ways were an important factor in placing her where she was. Edna Woodland and Marion Wolfe had become her most energetic campaign leaders. Sure enough, it was Liberty Day. All the class of '27 were there, for it was their class reunion. Norman Schulze, now president of the Central Railroad of New Jersey, had given the class special rates to the fair grounds. On the way they were entertained by Dorothy Walker, Ruth Alshouse and Agnes Agrest who were now earning a living by giving excerpts from Shakespearian drama. Finally they arrived at the exposition and were aghast to see Truman Schlegel peddling nickel balloons in front of the entrance gates. The balloons were advertising a game of pool between Frankie Bartos, the idol of America, and his team, the Yellow Flies, and Walton Posey and his team, the Wandering Jews. lnside the gate they saw a restaurant and they went in for a bite to eat. Wonder of wonders, the waitresses were none other than Henrietta Rentzheimer, Ruth Brunner, Lillian Furchner and Hazel Haney. They told us that the cafe was one of ten owned by Achille Pappano. The peace and quiet of the room was disturbed by Kitty Zack and Ruth Roth, who were arguing as to who had had the more sensational divorce. Later the crowd was gathered around John Spanitz, Eugene Nagy and Andrew Dechnik, who were telling of their triumph as the World,s Famous Fiddling Trio. Abraham Miller, who was there, could keep quiet no longer, and so we found out his business, That's nuttin', you oughta see my swell furniture what l gotf' Elizabeth Page One Hundred Twenly Davies, now one of those English teachers, gave him a free lesson on proper enuncia- tion. Right this way, ladies and gents, and see the famous diving Venus, Hilda Colemang the strong lady, Kitty Schraderg and the fastest woman in America, Frances Eichenburg. Ten cents, see them do the stunts that have thrilled us for the last twenty years. Jerry Beidelman was the announcer, since he was now the world's champion radio announcer. just then the crowd remembered that a program was being given in the auditorium and thither they went. Sure enough, Mary Lungar gave her swan dance, and the Rt. Rev. Charles Richard Lattig, D. D., spoke on the evils of the present generation. Last but not least, William I-lassler and Curt Ihle explained how they had made a success at selling cows by the hoof instead of by the head. In the audience were Victor Froelich, now a famous painter: and Kenneth Bauder, present typewriter champion: Senator William Fulmer, and Lucy l-linkle, the famous dress designer of New York, Paris and London. Also there were present the famous secretaries of the president, Florence Klein and Rose Kovach. Anna Paulus, Edith Sullivan and Dorothy Swavely, now disillusioned housewives, were discussing the price of sugar in the rear of the room. They were still talkative. After the performance the young-old crowd went into the Gladway and there they found that Libby Stone was running a candy booth, just so she could be doing something. And sure enough, Richard Kelly was the owner of the Derby, the steepest slide in the country. Evelyn Young, even though she was the most famous actor on the legitimate stage, was game enough to risk the limelight and ride on the lagoon in a gondola which was steered by Marvin Smith, who had always envied the Volga Boatman. Aha! and over there to the right was the swimming pool. The banks were filled with people watching Helen Malloy, who was the first woman to swim the Gulf of Mexico. An orchestra was playing, to soothe her vibrant nerves, and it was led by Walter l-larter, who had stolen Paul Whiteman's place in the music world. At last the class got together for its meeting. There each one was introduced to the assemblage and his present status was given. Of course, you have already heard of the present fortunes or misfortunes of many of the class, nevertheless there are some others. Gertrude Koller said she was running a marcelle and wave parlor. Lucy McGovern was now court reporter in the court where the I-lon. Judge Ellsworth Cooper presided. Three school teachers were also present: they were Claudine Seifert, Grace Collins and Fern Sterner. Esther Dodge was busy keeping house. The manager of the Bethlehem 5 and I0 was also there, namely, Doris Good. Alfred Miller was a lawyer who took much interest in breach of promise cases. ln the social hour after the meeting others revealed their life positions to the group. Ellen Goodman and Nathalie Kessler were now running millinery shops in both Bethle- hem and Freemansburg. Earl Fry was now a councilman, and his friend, Theodore Reybitz, was his private secretary. just then some of the tardy ones came into the room, late as usual. They were Madeline Gerber and Elizabeth Meaker. They were arguing as to which of them had accomplished the most. Madeline was, by this time, a welfare worker and Elizabeth, a female cop. After them arrived William Maiorello, Charles Geyer and Bruno Damiani. They were congratulating Charles on his recent election as governor of the state. Bruno started to pass around cards of his establishment, the Nickel Shoe Shine Parlor. William Maiorello was saying nothing, but didn't you hear he was a secret service man? And say, what about Ruth Knies, Ruth Muschlitz, Irene Schilling, Dorothy Smith, Margaret Cavey and Mary Elek? Well, Ruth Knies is now the matron of the Children's Homeg Ruth Muschlitz is a famous cartoonist: Dorothy Smith is still a shy girl looking Page One Hundred Twenty-one l , V wif ry'-llu'fi lu,wW for the right boy: Margaret Cavey is now a shorthand teacher, and Mary Elek is starring in the new play, The College Widow. And what do you think? Elizabeth Kocsiczky is now posing for Madonna paintings. When the meeting was over, Marion Fritch strolled in, in her latest crmine wrap, holding on to her name of the best dressed woman in the world. In her wake came Olive Brown and Erma Thomas. Both the latter are now professionalizing basketball. Then I visited the military camp and discovered the general to be Benjamin Cyphers, having as his assistants, Irvin Keller and Ralph Artz. The camp was quite large and proved interesting to all visitors. The army was drilling on the parade grounds and it was a pleasure to see Captain Lyman Heller ubawling out Kenneth Glace for saluting with his left hand. A female band supplied the music. The band leader was Mildred Roth. There were several loud noises in the bandg namely, Josephine Jacoby, playing the cornetg Mary I-Iarkins, playing the bass horng Helena Buss, playing the trombone, and Helen Lilly, having the time of her life whanging theibass drum. Anthony Anamisakis, cook, was preparing the noonday meal in a large tent set up for the purpose. The menu consisted of the usual cafeteria style, vegetable soup and grade A milk. Andy had two fair assistants, Hazel Stonebach and Irene Coleman. I heard ferocious screams issue from a tent nearby and ran to assist. I-lere I found the renowned surgeon, Paul Lerch, extracting one of Jesse Snyder's baby teeth. Groans issued from another tent close by and there I found Stephen Borda, the camp barber, shaving Frank Falusy's five-year beard, with disastrous results. A huge balloon interested me next. The pilot was Emil Nagy. I-le took passengers up to view the grounds for a few minutes in return for a large amount of money. I climbed into the cabin and saw Frank Everett, the telephone magnate, in the cabin with rne. We conversed with each other and he introduced me to his faithful butler, Charles Rosenberg, who had induced him to take this lofty trip. My next visit was to the naval exhibition. Several historic ships were anchored at the docks and one was permitted to wander over the ships and examine them in detail. The first ship I visited was the S. S. Lehigh, in which Commodore Oscar Panik had made his famous exploration voyage up the river, which bears the name of his boat, to deter- mine whether the legendary myths concerning a peanut city were true. He reported that he had counted several dozen peanut venders in the tiny borough and in the dis- tance, along the banks of the Lehigh, he had seen several hundred acres devoted to the raising of peanuts. An oil portrait of the distinguished Commodore, painted by the well-known artist, Olia Detweiler, hung in the cabin. On the deck, George Webb and Max lhle, two of the worst ugobsn the Navy has ever seen, were scrubbing the decks, and quoting lines from Wilhelm Tell under their breath. Two distinguished visitors were aboard the ship that day, Adam Polcrack, president of the Freemansburg Naval Academy, and I-Ienry Groves, retired army officer, and president of the Bangor Military Academy. There were also several peddlers, Herman Kurtz and Sherman Sawyer, selling trinkets and other tinware. at a great profit. I then went to the next ship, the S. S. Monocacy, a huge dreadnought, which had been starred in a moving picture produced by the much lauded director, Donald Mancke. It may be interesting to note that the ship had been built by the Bath Shipbuilding Corporation, of which Michael Blackstone was president. Doris Miller, Carrie Kem- merer, Elsie Schonenberger, Frieda Manescu, Claire Frick and Myrtle Behler, members of the girls' chorus of the musical comedy, Ink Well, composed by Harry Miller, were having a gay time on deck flirting with a host of sailors. I then saw Frederick Tice, a newspaper photographer, taking a picture of the group. I went into the lower parts of the ship and saw a large crowd gathered about an iron cage bearing the inscription, Found at last! The man who sank the Maine. I Page One Hundred Twenty-two shoved closer and to my surprise I found that the occupant of the cage was Roland Elliott. Two female reporters, Kathryn Worman and Alaska Cummings, were busily noting the actions of a group of Latin instructors from well-known colleges. They ought to be watched. Among the instructors were Kathryn Armstrong of Vassar, Sarah Buss of Smith College, Naomi Snyder of Wellesley, Edward Szulborski of Columbia, and Theodore Brown of Harvard. Growing tired of these naval maneuvers, l decided I would go to where the foreign exhibits were displayed. I soon reached an amusement place known as The Streets of Cairo. As I entered the gate l was greeted by the sounds ofa tinnish horn and a bass drum. The creators of the din proved to be Elwood Miltenberger and Ernest Mosebach, disguised as Egyptians, announcing a show inside the tent. l paid my admission and entered. On the program was Audrea Rockwell, in the role of an Egyptian queen, who performed one of those vamp dances. l wandered about the shops and heard cries of Me sella cheap. Beside me stood Elmer Romig trying to sell some Persian rugs. I continued my journey and at last came to the French exhibits. Here a bevy of French girls, Miriam Landis, Helen Polcrack and Bertha Moser, tried to sell me fancy imported pocket handkerchiefs. Germany was represented by an old-fashioned restaurant, of which Ellwood Schlotter was proprietor. Althea Frey, one of the charming waitresses, served me the customary meal, sauerkraut, pork and beer Cnot malted milky. lt's too bad the exposition officials would not allow Mr. Schlotter to conduct a saloon. At the Spanish exhibits a large crowd assembled. Here, Hal Jenkins, the United States ambassador to Spain, was speaking. On the platform besides him were Richard Byington, the screen's greatest lover, who had starred in many Spanish balcony scenes: Gertrude Moll, the popular Spanish dancer, and Florence Walker, a well-known Spanish translater. The British exhibits were particularly interesting. On a small platform Luther Uhler was posing as a brawny Canadian woodsman. Anna Wysoka and Helen Shimmel posed as representatives of uncivilized nations of Africa. I then passed on to the state exhibits. William Green, a Florida real estate agent, was winning a large crowd to his side by his Huent tongue and continuous prattle. Nobel Siegfried was still mixing as he had previously done in the chemical laboratory. He was mixing Winesap and Mayflower apples and selling them for Baldwins. Harriet Ward and Myrtie Miltenberger, representatives from Kentucky, were displaying antique moonshine stills, captured in the mountain regions. Florence Grim, a representative from New York's Metropolitan Opera House, sang an aria from Allah Ruth's latest hit, Just a Splinter from my Sweethearts Wooden Leg. Annette Hontz and Frances Hess, wizards of horticulture, represented the irrigation projects in Arizona. They displayed a bunch of grapes grown on a cactus plant. Gwyneth Samuels, wife of a well-known Chicago meat packer, displayed the process by which corn-beef is made. l left the State building and heard music in the air. A band of marines approached, among whose number I noticed the noble Visage of Malcolm Metzger, the Slugging Marine. He was the marines' hockey champion and had recently stepped into the limelight of the realm of sports. Sports! Could there be an exposition without sports? Surely not if there are still promoters like Joseph Thomas and William Marayas. World series will be played regardless of year. Gradually but surely a chance had crept over us. Instead of the famous American and National League, there come as participants to the stadium the great National Women's Baseball League and opposed to them the Great American Men's Baseball League. A much talked of game was about to take place. The Women's League made its appearance. Catcalls, cheers, hoots and shouts mingled in one bedlam of noise. The Men's League had entered. A Page One Hundred Twenly-lhree H+: .L ll' llm lL,l,-,t'll, Q ill! softer yell greeted them. The women were silencing their lesser halves. The teams lined upon the diamond. The loud and mighty voice of Harold Hinkle pierced the air announcing The Mighty Women's Team! of America vs. the equally Mighty Men's Team of America. The line up is as follows: National Women's Team American Men's Team Georgine Feldman, c. Dick Freudenberger, c. Ruth Weaver, p. Ed Weisenberg, p. Elizabeth Hartman, lst b. Thomas Richards, lst b. Lucy Kelly, 2nd b. Walter Clause, Znd b. Carolyn Petrikin, ss. Robert Gruver, ss. jean Strohl, 3rd b. Orel Coursen, 3rd b. Eleanor Kressley, rf. Samuel Goodman, rf. Mary Agnes Muir, lf. Harry Bodder, lf. Elizabeth Thompson, cf. Stanley Noll, cf. The announcer took his seat. Coaches I-less and Emery hostilely gazed at each other. Umpire Curuver called the game. Play ball! The expert spit-ball thrower soon had, after knocking three batters out, finally succeeded in retiring the side. So the game continued as all games will until the fatal ninth. Neither side had crossed the plate and neither side had scored a run. With the mighty Ed Weisenberg up to bat, great things were expected. A crash! A beautiful wallop over second. Weisenberg rounded first. A pretty slide and Ed came up all bloody. Petrikin was lined for spiking. The diminutive battery held aconsultation. The next three men were out. Peanuts, five cents the bag, the melodious voice of Bob Deily arose. Rain! No! Pour! The game was called. Score, 0-0. Ah, a little respite, sodas, cigars, etc., and the cowboys made their appearance for the finals in the world's championship, bronco riding, lasso throwing, and last but not least, bull-throwing. A shrill rasping of Eugene Fish told us that Wild Jim Ahrens would meet Buffalo Jo Henry in the finals for the bronco-riding championship. Rolls Ruff, the outlaw horse, was led out. Wild jim up! A sunfish, a stiffleg, and a cow-boy with a crushed spirit left the arena. Meanwhile the champion hostler, David Downin, after a mad chase, succeeded in catching the horse. Buffalo Jo Henry always wanted to see the ups and downs of the world. Now's his chance. Poor Ujoeu: it was the downs he saw. There was a scuffle in the stands. Ewing Julstedt, ex-bank- robber, and now pickpocket, was caught in the act. In rushed policeman john Mclntyre and hauled him out roughly to the wagon. The next event was the women's relay. A confusion! A tumult! ln rode the fair contestants, the world's champion women's relay team. Elizabeth Collins, Helen Kwitz, Helen Prokop, Ruth Prosser vs. the challengers, Clara l-Iottle, Mabel Fritz, Florence Thorpe and Catherine White. Bang! The race was on. I need not tell of that race, for it is written in the sport annals of time. Two horses were run to death. The challengers won only because their horse had the longer neck. The lassoing event was next. The skilled men of that art appeared. And behold! Paul Snyder and Ernest Gackenbach were Hit. Well, they could lasso a door-knob: but when it came to a cow, nothing doing. Come, buy your bi-centennial souvenirs, the mighty voice of Harold Fritchman announced to the world at large. A hot dog would taste good, I thought. Leroy Young offered me one for a dime: Alton Christ- man, for nine cents, so they continued until they both offered me one for nothing. An exhibition of magic broke into the program, two native Indians performed their wonders for the world at large. And lo! There were Bill Alcorn and John Chamberlain, ably assisted by their female drawing cards, Kathleen Fielding and Elizabeth Musselman. Page One Hundred Tweniy-four Iwyr W Ny' , Women must also have their chance. Fancy riding and trapeze Work were among their specialties. A flying leap, and Mary Groman was doing a pretty back fall into the life net. Scarcely had this been done, when Evelyn Mccance, on whom Margaret Kehoe was hanging, made a flying leap at a rope, caught it in her teeth, and, had her false teeth not slipped she would have been all right. ln rushed Orel Coursen, the ambulance driver, followed closely by his nurse, Jeanette Ashton. Thus that act ended. Now for the fancy riding. Four of the five contestants stayed on their horses for two minutes. The successful ones were Sara Millington, Mabel Kemmerer, Matilda Bigot and Marie McCarthy. From outside the stadium I heard the mighty voice of Marvin Aaron saying, Bull fighting-Raymond Makos and John I-ludockf' Through efforts of Bill Fritz, the ticket man, I got in in time to see Ray Makos win the championship by actually throwing the bull. The crowd filed out, and as the stadium became empty, in crept Emanuel Scoblionko, who had got in for nothing and was waiting for the evening per- formance. Could there be a centennial without a restaurant? The Y. W. C. A. shone above all the rest, so naturally I had to eat there. Behind the counter stood Veronica Kumposky and Marie Napravnik dishing out the corn-beef and cabbage. When it came to paying, there was the cashier with the itching palm, Eva Remaley. A boxing bout concluded the sports for the day. The usual boring mad crowd paid the 51550 admission without a thought, for this bout was one of the ages. The referee called the bout and announced Ladies vs. Gentlemen, in the corner sits 'Battling Kid' Palmer, in the other sits 'Knockout' Bart Deitrichf' They shook hands. A furious round ensued. After the gong, Palmer went to his corner with a black eye, and in that minute had worked up a beautiful Dempsey frown. But Bart did not reach his corner unscratched, for, behold, he nursed a cauliflower ear. So the bout continued. The referee called off the fight in the fourth round, for each contestant had fouled the other simultaneously. Palmer needed a seamstress and Deitrich an ambulance. Colin Ward, the famous gambler, had lost all of his money. The bout was a famous one. Even the Old Maids' Home sent its representative in the form of a committee of three, Wenonali Hoffman, Ruth Persbacker and Florence Kendall. The people filed out. The janitors now had to get busy. John Wagner and Alex Kalman daily collected about 50 pounds of used but otherwise good chewing gum. All aboard! It was now time to leave. The engineer, Marvin Aaron, pulled the throttle and we departed. The well-known voice of Bob Gaffney, the train announcer, lulled us to sleep with his lusty yells, Easton, Bass and Nazarassf' Page One Hundred Twenty-five 1315 E ...f 'Q x N l W Q JUNH R THE .IUNQOR CLASS Euniur Glass ibisturp Here we are, juniors! When We started our long, tedious race of four laps, those much looked-up to classes, junior and Senior, seemed far away in the haziness of the future, but we are already hoping to be seniors with sad days of thinking of leaving Liberty High School. We started the organization of our class in early fall when we were acquainted with each other. The following officers were elected: George Sellers, presidentg Lester Wills, vice-presidentg Ethel Dutt, secretaryg George Hottel, treasurer. Financial matters have been the chief problems. Our dues were set at two dollars. In addition to our class dues, we had rings and pins to consider, of which every junior wants to be a proud possessor. It was a great disappointment to all that the jewelry failed to arrive before Christmas. It is not necessary for the Junior Class to stand aside for any of the other classes in athletics. We have many stars of whom we are proud. Among them we have Erwin Yosko, football. Among the well-known athletes of the weaker QD sex, we have Kitty Schrader, Beats Munsch, Louise Snyder and Helen Malloy. The Junior-Senior reception must not be forgotten. It was a grand success and fully repaid the efforts of those who planned it. We hope the Junior-Senior reception will he equally as successful in future years.

Pupils from Nitschmann, Liberty, South Side and Foun- tain Hill have all cast their lots with us and are striving with zealous efforts to do the best they possilby can. Some time after we became better acquainted, Mr. Gruver called an assembly of the sophomores in the auditorium. At that meeting the following officers were elected: President, William Pulley: vice-presi- dent, John Hall: secretary, Roberta Hallg and treasurer, Theodore Bachman. The Sophomore Class has been well represented in school activities. Much of the strength of the football eleven lay in such clever players as, Pulley, Morgan, Reynolds, Diehl, Jacoby and Bachman. The soccer team would have been handicapped without such sophomores as Wil- liams, Dickinson,-Reynolds and others. We must not pass over the music department. ln the band we have, Koehler, Meyers, Smith, Sigley and Johnnie Sabolg in the orchestra, Troxell, Koehler, Hos- Held, Mohn and Cxisella Biro. The Glee Club is only lightly sprinkled with sophomores, among them, Ruth Moyer, Dolores Weiss, Donald Schlotter and Bill Lang. In scholastic work the sophomores have a fine standing. Several that are Hhitting on all cylinders are: Anna Gable, Commercial course: George Flickinger, Scientific course: and William Lang, Academic course. The one big aim of this class is to be the best Sophomore Class which ever attended Liberty High School and we hope that all through life we can cherish fond memories of when-we were sophsf' GERALD FRANKENFIELD, '29 Page One Hundred Thiriy-four Agocs, William Albanese, Joseph Andorka, Frank Anwyll, Arthur Arbizzani, Amedio Ashman, Rudolph Atherholt, Edna Austin, Agnes Aykroyd, Arthur Bachman, George Bachman, Theodore Barrett, Marleah Bauman, Earl Behr, Albert Beiler, Myrtle Bell, james Benner, Doris Benner, Robert Bessemer, john Biro, Frank Biro, Gizi QGraceD Biro, Margaret Boligitz, Anthony!

The election of officers then took place, with the following results: Girls' Glee Club, Josephine Jacoby, presidentg Marian Resser, vice-presidentg Althea Fry, secretary: Elsie Felker, secretary. Boys' Glee Club-Malcolm Metzger, presidentg Truman Reese, vice-president: Elwood Miller, secretaryg Sherman Sawyer, treasurer. However, all is not work in the Culee Clubs. The first of the good times was a Halloween party, held in our gym by both Glee Clubs. Every one had a good time, especially the new members who chose this opportunity to become acquainted. The Girls' Clee Club held another party at Christmas time, a kid party. The girls all wore costumes suited to the occasion, and it was a jolly group of kids to whom Santa Claus gave Christmas presents. The Clee Clubs presented the operetta, The Lass of Limerick Town.

In order to become a member of this organization, the pupil must read a portion of drama before the judges, who consist of old members of the club and the directors. The pupil is then chosen according to the number of votes he or she receives. The club, this year, has been under the direction of Miss Achenbach and Miss Crow. With their assistance. the club has been able to carry on the work to the best of its ability. These teachers have given their advice and direction, with the hope of aiding the club with their more advanced experience. The officers elected by the club were: President, Robert Gaffney: vice-president. john Miller 3 secretary, Althea Freyg and treasurer, George Sellers. The plays given the first half of the year were: The Man in the Bowler Hat, by A. A. Milne, and Where But in America? by Oscar M. Nalff. The club, in all the productions it has given, has endeavored to give them in a true dramatical way. If this purpose has been accomplished, the club has a just reason to be satisfied with its members this year.

It has made remarkable advancement during this year, as can be seen by the music which it played. There were forty-nine enrolled as members of the orchestra. From this number there were fourteen first violins, fifteen second violins, two violas, two cellos, one bass, two flutes, three clarinets, one saxophone, two trumpets, three tympani players, three trombones and the piano. The orchestra had as their oflicers: Katherine Koffel, president: Harry Croman. vice-president: Ruth Koehler, secretary: Harriet Ward, treasurer. This was the Hrst year in which the orchestra adopted a constitution. The orchestra has played on several occasions, including performances in chapel, a short concert previous to a lecture given in the school under the auspices of the Presbyterian Church, a concert at the State Hospital in Rittersville, a concert at the Lions Club banquet at Hotel Beth- lehem and. above all, at its annual concert, which was given at the school, February l8th. Part of the orchestra aided in making the Christmas program a success. The numbers which it played throughout the year and which displayed very well the talents of the players were: The Unfinished Symphony. Schubert: Der Freischutzf' Carl von Weber: Second Symphony in D Major, Beethoven: l..'Arlesienne, Georges Bizetg Fest Overaturef' Leutner, and Three Dances from Henry VIII, Edward German. The Liberty High School Orchestra deserves much credit for the wonderful work which it has done to aid in making Bethlehem a bigger and better musical center, and to make better musicians of the orchestra members and better listeners and appreciators of classical music from its audiences.

One of the first things the Art Club did this year was to adopt a motto, Do all things in a beautiful way. The meetings of the club were held every Monday and Wednesday afternoon. Mondays were devoted to studies in black and white: that is, only pen, pencil and charcoal sketches may be drawn on that day. When sketches were taken from the living model, two periods of fifteen minutes each were allowed for the drawing. Color work in oils and water colors was done on Wednesdays. Very attractive still life studies in oils and clever little landscapes and portraits in water colors were produced by the members of the club. At the end of each semester an exhibit of the work done by the club was held. On November 24th the Art Club visited the art exhibit of paintings by contemporary American artists held at the Memorial Building, Lehigh University. The club chose Little Sister, by Murray Beverly: Off Shore, by Eric Hudson, and Adirondack Wood, by Paul King as the paintings they admired most. Several successful parties were given during the year at the homes of various members. The Hrst social aflaxr of the season was given at the home of Miss Keinard.

The eagerness of the French students resulted in the organization of Le Cercle Francais. ln the early fall a meeting was held at which the following officers were elected: Ruth Weaver, president: William Fulmer, vice-president, and Catharine Frantz, secretary. The first Wednesday of every month Le Cerle Francais held its meetings in room 213 and every one that passed there at 3 o'cloclc would hear our oui's and non's of the business meeting and the tres bien's of the program. Under the careful supervision of Miss Besanson and Mr. Bennet and with the splendid co-opera- tion of the members, some very successful programs were given. Among the numbers which constituted our programs were short plays, pantomimes, songs, games. jokes, proverbs and current topics. At one time we were fortunate enough to have Mr. Corbiere, a French professor, speak to us and we were greatly benefited by his talk. ljlllustration, which was in the school library, was subscribed to by this club. Throughout the year we acquainted ourselves better with French customs and the language and we feel that a worth while achievement has been accomplished. john Barbar Margaret Beaver Ruth Bright Burton Dorn Ceorgine Feldman Caroline Foust Catharine Frantz Victor Froelich William Fulmer Pauline Getz Kenneth Glace Laurenta Heller Cecilia ,Iulstedt Miriam Kelly Evelyn Krier Helen Kurtz Helen Lily Page One Hundred Forty-six l L,,-.,,,r , midi .

Due to the change of teachers it was impossible to continue the activities started by the class of l925. Immediately after the opening of the l926-l927 school term. the Spanish students organized and elected the following oflicers: Harry Miller, president: Ruth Weaver, vice-president: Kathryn Armstrong, secretaryg Walton Posey, treasurer. The main purpose of the club is to acquaint the Spanish students with parliamentary pro- cedure and public speaking in a foreign language and to give them a broader idea of Spanish speaking peoples, their countries and customs. The club meets the last Friday of every month. At the second meeting a constitution drawn up by Mary Elek, Ben Cyphers, Clarence Souders and Harry Miller was adopted. It was decided to call the club, El Circulo Castellano. On the completion of the business program a two- act comedy entitled, The First Dispute, was rendered by Ruth Weaver, Walton Posey and Florence Walker. The interesting programs given by the different committees increased the attraction for the club and as a result more members turned out. The club was well represented when Catrino Garza, a native of Mexico: Andre Martin and Russel Quesada, both Cubans, journeyed to L. H. S. to talk to the club, Mr. Garza spoke very interestingly on historical Mexican anecdotes. Mr. Martin and Quesada in turn spoke equally well on various characteristics of Cuba. The entertaining was not always done by outsiders. Different members displayed their merits very effectively in giving monologues, solos, duets, Spanish dances, debates, plays, dis- cussions on Spanish authors and songs and games in which they participated. As a whole the club has enjoyed a most successful year. The club wishes to express its appreciation to Miss Clark for the constructive advice and untiring work which she contributed, thus making possible the success that, the club has attained.

We feel sure that the attempts to make German pupils better acquainted with the German language, literature and customs have proven beneficial to the members of the organization. The officers. of the German Club are: President, Truman Reese: vice-president, Joseph Maurer: secretary-treasurer, Helen Polcrack. There are seventy-eight members of the club. Each member was obliged to pay a small sum to meet the expenses of the organization. Der Deutsche Verein received a daily German newspaper. Die New-Yorker Statts Zeitungf' in the library. Visitors were permitted to attend any of the meetings. The meetings were held on the third Friday of every month after school. A different program committee was appointed by the president to arrange for the program of each meeting. At the meetings. folk-songs were sung, recitations by some of the greatest German authors were recited and stories and letters were read. At the March meeting an amusing comedy was presented by the members of the Senior German Class. We are gratefully indebted to Mr. Middleton for the publication of the parliamentary rules for conducting the meetings and to Miss Mary Hess and Miss Marion Radley, faculty advisers, for their helpful advice and suggestions.

A ' I V LN il' M 5 W1 W W ' Gin QBur Qthletic ZlBi1fecturs We of the class of '27 consider this year's sports history incomplete without remembering the excellent work of our coaches and the methods they have used to instill into the minds of our athletes the loyal qualities that every athlete must possess. These qualities are pure living, fair play and, the most important, being able to take what you give. The first coach to occupy our intentions is Mr. Emery, better known to us as Bill. Bill has been the coach who Hrst introduced the games of football and track in Bethlehem High School. This year we understand that Coach Emery will no longer return to coach basketball and track, but will leave the High School together with us. We are happy of one thing and that is that we will not return to see our basketball players and track men coached by another coach than Bill Emery. Equally surprising was the resignation of Coach Austy Tate. Coach Tate has tutored our football and baseball teams for the past five years, showing a remarkable success in both sports. He is to coach the freshman team at Lehigh and reports indicate that some of our former High School stars will report for practice next fall with the yearlings, to be again with their former football mentor. However, we can't but help feeling satisfied that of our three coaches, Mr. Stark will remain. We hope to see and read in the future, just as we have in the past, ofthe victories and successes ofthe Stark coached teams. Mr. Stark has capably coached, for the past years, soccer, swimming and wrestling. Mr. McCann has put all his extra time for the last two years into the develop- ment of a tennis team for the school. I-le has made a success of this, as one may easily see by the record of the team last year. We hope that Mr. McCann may have as much success with all his teams in the future. Though Miss Barnes is but a new member of our faculty, we feel as though she has been with us for a long time. We wish to thank her for her wonderful spirit and work in producing such successful teams. She has done much in bringing girls' athletics to the fore.

Student Manager Ausrv TATE . . . Coach MR. PIUTCHINSON . . Assistant Coach A. S. GRUVER . . . . . Faculty Manager A few days following the opening of school, Coach Austy Tate and Captain Frank Bartos issued their call for candidates. This call was answered with great success by former football stars and new undeveloped material. Nevertheless, this prospect vanished, due to the stringent rule of the P. I. A. A. which declared all five-year men ineligible. This rule was very hard on the team, since it took away the very nucleus of Coach Tate's material. Amongst the players declared ineligible were: Bart Dietrich, former stellar fullback: Raymond lVlakos, tackle: Jerome Beidleman, end: Edward Cunningham, quarterback, john Baran, half- backg Harold Fritchman, guardg and various other talented young men. However, Austy Tate, although handicapped by this loss, turned out a team worthy of notice. The schedule he had prepared which was one of the best in Bethlehem High School's history, required every bit of this experienced material. Coach Tate proved to be the Hrst coach that has had a team capable to beat our up the river foes, Easton High School. For the first time since Bethlehem and Easton High School assumed football relations the time changed. That was a game that will long remain impressed firmly in the minds of football fans in Bethlehem. It will be a game remembered and spoken of each year and in years to come. Who will forget the brilliant efforts of Captain Frank Bartos and his teammates? Who will forget, that little striplingf' as the Philadelphia paper called Captain Frank Bartos, stand calmly amidst the wild cheers of the crowds and boot the ball directly between the uprights? Again can the fans forget the excellent plunging of Cowboy Elliott, Charles Geyer and Dick Latting, through those huge fissures opened up by Burk- hardt, julstedt and Shamenek, aided by the two hawks, McCarthy and Yosko. Finally we come to Austy Tate, who will no longer coach at Bethlehem I-Iigh School. Coach Austy Tate will return to coach freshman football teams upon the same Held he played upon when he was a star linesman and captain at Lehigh University. Coach Austy Tate has always been an ardent student of football and his loss will evidently be felt at the High School. Nevertheless, we wish our former coach success and promotion at his new position. THE SCHEDULE ' Beth. Opp. Bethlehem Phoenixville .... 6 7 Bethlehem .

Buys' Basketball bastards What better words can we find to express our sentiments of gratitude and admiration for our knights of the hardwood floor? Their success has been coronated by the spirit characteristic of all our athletics. But theirs was a success of which we are proud, even though luck has willed that our boys did not defend their school colors in the tournament held at Penn State. Neverthe- less, the team we have so fervently urged on in its victories will always be admired by the graduating class of '27, This season basketball was started with an impetus similar to a wave that starts somewhere in the distant ocean and finally reaches its final destina- tion, the beach. This impetus characterized the drive with which our boys co-operated with their able coach, Bill Emery. The season unlike previous years was started long before football had ended so as to give other boys not engaged in other athletics, a chance to accumulate the necessary stamina required from a winning team. The graduating class of '27 regrets very much to hear that Mr. Emery will no longer teach our boys the fundamentals of basketball. To replace a man of Mr. Emery's ability as a coach will be very difficult to obtain and it is with rancor that we think of this outcome. We of the class of '27 want to thank Manager John Heske and Captain Bates McCarthy for the splendid co-operation they have shown Coach Emery. Great credit is due Manager I-leske for the schedule and the way it was unfolded. To Captain Bates McCarthy is due the credit of the smooth working ofthe team and we are sure every one thinks of him as an exemplar captain.

Manager Coach Austy Tate and Captain Dick Byington issued their call for can- didates early this spring and the response was very favorable. With a very good nucleus of last year's team, the problem of building up a good club was not hard for Coach Tate. The team has started out on its way to a very suc- cessful season and, although we regret that the CAULDRON goes to print before the baseball season is concluded, we are sure that the remaining games will all be victories for us. Our first scheduled event took place on April I4th against Norristown and our boys completely dominated the situation with a score of 8-2. On April I6th we met our down-the-river foes, Easton, and completely over- came them, I2-5. Then came Bangor's invasion of Bethlehem, and it was a sad bunch that returned to Bangor, for the Red and Blue again triumphed, I4-I0. Victory seemed to be the only accepted results by our boys when they met Reading and forced them to taste defeat, I0-5. The strong Phillipsburg team was next taken up and it surely was a fair day for the Bethlehem boys when the result was announced as 20-2. Bethlehem then defeated Perkasie by the superior score of I0-2. With the student body putting plenty of pep into the game we are sure the rest of the games will be victories for us and an undefeated season will be the result. THE SCHEDULE Beth.

It was the start of the most successful season Liberty High School or any other high school ever completed in the masculine art of wrestling, and marked the second successive year that a Stark coached team won the Eastern States Scholastic Cham- pionship. ln response to this sign no less than thirty specimens of physical culture put in their appearance. Among them were three letter men, two of them being Eastern States Scholastic Champions of the previous year and several other boys who had been out on last year's squad. ligrfter a month of hard work, Coach Stark presented a very formidable team led by Captain appano. The opening meet was against the Alumni, a group of former High School stars, most of whom were following the sport in other schools. High School won this meet by the decisive score of I6-5. Next they met Franklin and Marshall Academy, their rivals in the interscholastics, and thrashed them. 21-6, in the first of two meets and I4-I3 in the second. On February l2th they journeyed to Philadelphia, where they met the highly tooted Penn Frosh before a large crowd. When the meet was over, the surprised frosh team found themselves on the short end of a 24-8 score. The last three meets were victories over Neptune High. 23-53 Lehigh Frosh, our formid- able Bethlehem rivals, l6-8. and the final over York Y. M. C. A., I6-IO. On March 26th came the climax of this great season. Liberty High School entered the Eastern States Scholastic Championships at Franklin and Marshall and not only won the meet, but also brought back four individual champions, namely: Kalman, l I5 lbs.. who was undefeated during the year: Maiorello, IZ5 lbs., winning this class for the second consecutive year: Reybitz, I35-lb. champion, who was also undefeated this year, and Captain Pappano, who also won the title for the second year in succession. Morgan and Edraney also placed in the meet. The entire team will be lost this year, so Mr. Stark will have to start all over again. However, he has some fine material in Thomas, Schaffer, Rosenberg, Barber. Margaritz and Williams. all of whom won the Lehigh Valley Amateur Championships.

The juniors forged through their season undefeated and their efforts were rewarded by the junior soccer championship of the city, for which they received a. silver cup presented by the Messrs. Krause. On the other hand, the varsity team, although playing the majority of their games against freshman college teams, also came through undefeated and a glance at the following facts will easily convince you of their svfperb record: Teams Played B.

Here again they proved their skill against some of the best teams. They came through the first round with flying colors by defeating Beacon College and then utterly snowing in St. ,Iohn's Nlanlius by a 3-I score. However, this game proved disastrous to the team because five of the most valuable men were lost, due to injuries received. When called upon to play again that same day they were defeatedg nevertheless, they created a great impres- sion on Philadelphia soccerites. This is what the Public Ledger had to say about our team: The victory marked the sixteenth game for the Bethlehem team, who were Lehigh Valley champions. Against the Beacon College eleven, they showed a fine passing team, skilled in the short pass made famous by the Bethlehem Steel Team of the American League. Thus Bethlehem High has again, under the capable tutoring of Coach Stark, achieved honors in the soccer field which are becoming pinnacles of all our sports.

Captain The loss by graduation of many good natators such as Captain Ray Ellicott, Jack Cowell, Robert Tice and a few other talented young men predicted a poor season for our team. Never- theless, a number of boys joined the squad and under Coach Bill Stark proved to be a team worthy of recognition. Not only do they deserve to be recognized, but they have had the dis- tinction of being one of the best teams turned out at Bethlehem High. This was easily proved by victories over such teams as Allentown, Scranton Central High, Norristown and Easton Y. M. C. A. It is with pride that we speak of our team as the best in the P. I. A. A. this year. The schedule, which was a very hard one to face, was drawn up by Manager Abie Miller and very much credit is due him for the splendid success of the team. The calibre of the team can be judged by the fact that two members were undefeated. These boys are Captain Hal jenkins and johnny Enstrom. Enstrom won the 50 and l00 yard dashes in every meet and Jenkins won the bacl-:stroke in every meet. The team will lose Captain jenkins and Bob Gaffney through graduation. THE SCHEDULE Beth.

The other letter men, including Tice, lhle, Julstedt, Miller and Koenig, were all back. With the addition of one man the team was filled up. The schedule this year was the best so far in the history of tennis at Bethlehem High. Real competition was found in Allentown Prep, Palmerton, Easton, Lancaster and Norristown. , The team showed up well in all of these matches as may be seen from their record. Much of the credit for their success should go to the coaching of Mr. McCann. Under his watchful cye the team was rounded into shape for the first match. At the beginning of the season the team consisted of Tice, Riegel, Miller, julstedt and Koenig. THE SCHEDULE Beth.

This meet took place on our own field against our old rivals, Norristown. incidentally a Norristown man took this event and his teammates secured enough second and third places to clinch the meet by the close score, 50-45. This was probably the most exciting meet witnessed by Bethlehem' supporters. With a tie score and one event to complete the meet, the relay meant either victory or defeat. Norristown's fleet-footed men suc- ceeded in outrunning our men. The next meet was the annual relay carnival held at the University of Pennsyl- vania. Bethlehem entered with a three-victory record in the class A, Pennsyl- vania High Schools, one-mile relay race. Here our boys, running through mud and water, succeeded in placing third. The following Tuesday the team journeyed to Allentown and easily defeated Allentown and Easton to win the triangular meet. ln this meet we had the pleasure of seeing McCarthy shatter the javelin record with a throw of I7 feet better than previous throws. The next meet will be the Scranton relay championships and it is to our regret that the CAULDRON goes to print before we can record the results of these cham- pionships. It is interesting to know that we shall be defending champions in the mile and half mile relays and with the proper school spirit our boys will again easily win these championships. With eight letter men from last year and a wealth of new material Bethle- hem High can reasonably look forward to the remaining meets as all victories. We therefore wish the track team one of the best seasons witnessed in our High School. Henry Groves, our captain, performs in the high jump and so far has won first place in two meets completed. Bates lVlcCarthy handles the pole vault and javelin very well. In both he is a stellar performer. The other winning events are held by Bob Deily, Libert Chandler, Carl Spogen, Fred Clauser, John Arnold and Donald Schlotter.

A team that can beat Easton, I9-I4, defeat Norristown by a sub- stantial margin and wallop Allentown, ZI-I 5, is a basketball team. The opening game resulted in avictory over the Alumni, 36-I I. Norristown was the next victim, 26-I9, in one of the hardest fought games. The next two games were a joy to the Bethlehem rooters, when Phillipsburg was decisively beaten, 44-I9, and the Stroudsburg Normal Reserves, 31-25. The test of the season was Allen- town. The first half, the Allentown team outplayed ours. The second half, spirit, fight and determination were evident in the Linden Street lassies, and although the final score, I8-I6, was against us, we outplayed Allentown the entire second half. The game with Norristown resulted in an easy victory, 23-I I. Easton came to town with a good team. They had the fighting spirit, but they couldn't hold the red and blue team, so they returned with downcast mien. for we had triumphed, I9 to I4. The next few weeks found us twice the winner and once the loser. We emerged victorious over Phillipsburg and the Stroudsburg Normal Reserves, but lost to Easton. March l2th, Allentown came to Bethlehem hoping to repeat their victory. They were very much disappointed. for when the final whistle of the game blew, the scoreboard showed a 2I-to-I5 victory.

It was made up of the following mermaids: GEORGINE FELDMAN I .CATHERINE ZACK RHEA WI-IEATLEY HILDA COLEMAN MARIE HART LOIS LEIDICI-I BETTY HART NETTIE BROWN CONSTANCE CooIcE CECILIA JULSTEDT MIRIAM KELLY EMMA GEMBERLING RUTH WEAVER CLAIRE Fmcxc HARRIET WARD Lucy ERWIN During the season, many interclass tournaments were held. No one class had outshone the other, for the mermaids were evenly distributed throughout the Sophomore, Junior and Senior Classes. We are sure, if you saw only one ofthe meets, you will readily agree with us when we say that wonderful style and great speed were shown by every member of the team. Do you realize that the girls could not have had much of a successful season without the constant and capable coaching of Bill' Stark? It is due to his efforts that the swimming team presented such a formidable front. Page One Hundred Sixty-eight Y V .W L... V -- - J . l L-- jmfirpUi.i.LL-iiy 'ig' iiliiiyllfii-lfli-- fluid.
