Each of us have memories of our high school days that we will cherish all through our future years. We will re- member always the contents of this book for the memories it brings back to us and hope this year- book will be a lasting memorial that will aid us as we grow older. We sincerely hope this annual will be read and reread as years pass by. Dedication We, the members of the Senior Class of 1954, gratefully and sincerely dedicate this rhirrierh edition of the Littonian to Miss Dorothy P. Crabbs, for all her assistance and guidance dur- ing the years when she so faithfully served as one of our class advisers. It is hoped this dedication will serve as a token of our appreciation. X Our Principal Another year has passed and with it another class has grad- uated from Littlestown High. This is but the way of life in a social order where everyone has the right to an education as mandated by a free society, all of which surely exemplifies the spirit and methods of democracy. May you all become the guardians of this inalienable right and in so doing insure un- born generations that there will always be a public school with all the R's taught and caught by those who pass through its portals. To say we miss you is but an affirmation of a customary statement, but to say that we wish you success in your new school of life is truly a statement of the heart. fSignedj PAUL E.

Set before yourself high ideals, align yourself on the side of the Right in every challenge that comesg meet the problems of life with a conhdence born of a pure heart and the willingness to forget self in every noble endeavor, then, success will be yours.

The proverb, time and tide wait for no one, is especially true for us. Here we are, the citizens of tomorrow, at the end of our glorious high school days. Now as we face graduation, we are ready and anxious to inspect the actuality, verity, and the reality of the world. This is by no means our only thought. We cannot forget our memories of L.H.S. Let us look back over some of these memories. Ir all began on that bright and beautiful morn- ing in 1948. To be exact it was September 11 when the corridors of L.H.S. discovered one hundred and six human beings rambling around while wait- ing for guidance and instruction in order to pre- pare themselves for later life. Naturally, we ac- cepted the traditional name of any new class as greenies. This year went fast for us since it was a new fad in our life, and, also, we were kept busy by our studies and our extra-curricular activities. At the end of the year, after visiting the Freedom Train in Gettysburg, we were looking forward to our summer vacation. Returning in the following fall, we were housed in the new classrooms of the new addition on the northeast corner of the school. Once again we had to cope with new situations. Not only did we have to contend with the new environment, but, also, with the upperclassmen who were always giv- ing us a rough time. In spite of the fact that we lost a few members over the previous year, we were very active in clubs, plays, chorus, band, and sports. The highlight of the year was our social function, the Valentine Party, but we shall not forget the viewing of the Gettysburg Battlefield nor the school picnic at Forest Park. After a seemly vacation, we began the year 1950-1951 by using the textbook and the tablet. As usual the name of 'QFreshman, was applied to us. This year the Junior High football team was suc- cessful by winning all of its games, but this wasn't the only successful affair. The basketball team, the chorus, the cast of the underclassman play, and the reporters in journalism turned in Hne per- formances. Of course we learned much from -our books, but also from other methods. Such a method was going to Harrisburg to see our state govern- ment in action. With all of this, our Freshman year was brought to a close. Here it was! Here was a year which we thought would bring us prestige and importance, but what happens. We were destined to become Silly Sophomores. Although we received that name, we took our studies more seriously and we began to feel more responsibility. We even lived up to our name by acting silly and having fun. At the end of this year we ordered our school rings and we were anxiously awaiting the next year so we could receive them. As Jolly juniors, we look around at the familiar faces, but some were missing. Our en- rollment dropped to sixty-three. Our attitude was now changing since we had only two years re- maining. We became more enthusiastic toward our school work because we knew we had to make these last two years good ones. Students were more active in extra-curricular activities since they were more responsible and held higher positions in many organizations of the school. The highlights of the year were the Christmas Dance, receiving our class rings, and the Annual junior-Senior Prom which we gave to the Seniors as a departing gift from L.H.S. In 1953 we entered the corridors of L.H.S. for the last time as students. At first it was difficult to visualize ourselves as Seniors. Here we were, our last year together. We have done many activ- ities and made many friends. It seemed impossible that our happy days would soon be over. We will never forget the gay moments of the Christmas Dance or the Prom. It was a busy year and we accomplished much although it took a great deal of work. Examples of this work were: preparing The Littonian and the Senior Play. Before we leave L.H.S. and look to the future we give a word of advice to the underclassmen: Work hard and do your best, you'll never regret it. Then in closing, we-The Class of '54--say au revoir L.H.S. Class Motto-Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

The staff has done much work and debating in order to compile this book. The staff has made an honest effort to improve our annual in every way possible and sincerely hopes that the 1954 Littonian will be better and more interesting than ever before.

Mrs. Betty Hill thirty-two Class Prophecy Quite a few classes have sheepishly entered my doors and have gone out feeling quite assured and capable of taking their places in this busy, grow- ing world of ours. As my thoughts wander back through the years, my attention is drawn to one class in particular- The Class of '54l I shall never forget that class, not even for a minute, for it was noted as the one class capable not to succeed. At that time I, too, believed that they'd never amount to any good, for wherever trouble was to be found, some mem- ber of that class was involved. They were tops in anything from writing on my walls, to presenting illegal excuses and inappropriate assemblies on my stage. Twenty years have rolled by, and at last I shall be able to discover what actually happened to the Class of '54. In exactly ten minutes, their re- union will begin on my auditorium floor. Already they are beginning to arrive, and as they tug on my doors, I can hardly recognize them as they have changed so. The ones who had married and stayed in town were naturally the first to arrive. Among these were Shirley Rebert and her husband, jean More- head, now married to a famous chemist, and Shirley Crouse with her Army husband, and a dozen kids. As they stood there, William Moon, Donald Gebhart, Robert Hull, Donald Mikesell, and John Todt came up the walk. They were all very successful farmers and landowners in and about town. When they entered the door, they were all quite surprised to bump into Dean Sell, who had received great fame and fortune as a noted traveler and lecturer. With him, he had Jo Anne O'Kul, who had become his private sec- retary. Together they told of their latest trip to Mars in a supersonic jet, where they had been quite surprised to find Carol .leffiries as the hostess on the jet and Richard Flickinger as the pilot. As they were talking, they failed to notice a black Cadillac pull up in front of the building, and who should get out but that famous television, radio, and recording star, Dorothy jones, otherwise known as the Torch Singer. They all began talking at once, but one man's voice rose above all the rest. No one had seen him enter, but they knew the minute they heard his voice, it could be none other than James Hollinger, formerly u lawyer and now running for Senator. With him were his two secretaries, Jean Cluck and Patsy Spangler. Gazing down upon them, I thought my rafters would fall for, so far no member of char class was a failure. It was quite a shock! They had entered the auditorium and everyone was talking quite loudly, but suddenly the sound of a piano pierced through the noise. Everyone stopped talking as a dead silence fell on the group. They all realized that it was Jeanne Blocher, whom no one had seen for the past ten years, because she had been on a concert tour through France and had just returned to make her debut in Carnegie Hall. While Jeanne was playing, I felt a clamoring of feet on my top floor. When I gazed into the room I saw Jack Bowers, Tim Orndorff, Elvin Chronister, Bruce Jones and Eugene Chronister sitting at the desks, recalling old memories. They had all made successful careers in some branch of our armed forces. Listening to their conversation, it became apparent that -lack was an instructor and he was having trouble with Charlie Hall getting to all his classes late. This had been char- acteristic of Charlie in high school. He hadn't even arrived yet at the reunion. Hearing the music from the auditorium, they decided to go down and see the rest of the class, but first they had to wake Tim. This made me laugh for I remembered during high school his favorite pastime had been sleeping. In fact, he was even nicknamed Sleepy, I listened as they walked down to the auditorium and discovered that Janet Brumgard and joan Sheely had also entered the service and were un- able to attend the reunion because of other en- gagements. As they arrived at my auditorium door, they paused, for they heard voices coming from the of- fice. When they looked in, they saw Barbara Motter talking on the phone. When she hung up, she informed them that Nancy Crabbs, chief tele- phone operator at the Littlestown phone office, had had a long distance call from Larry Mummert and Howard Dodrer, and they were unable to attend because of their work. Larry had become a thirty-three forest ranger and Howard, a military policeman. Both were on duty all day. I guess they realized that they hadn't asked about Barb as of yet, and on inquiring, they found she had opened a beautician shop in York, and was doing very well. While they were talking, they were unaware of Darla Lemmon and Charles Sentz, who had just arrived. Charles had taken over what was formerly Boydie's Snack Bar, and had made it one of the most exclusive night clubs in Littlestown. Listening to their conversation, I discovered that Darla was a children's nurse at Gettysburg Hospital, and was off duty for a couple days so she thought she'd help Charlie out at the restaurant. What a class! I There were still a few who hadn,t arrived and naturally I was curious, so I looked into my auditorium. While I was listening to the conversations in the other rooms, I had failed to notice Jeanne Hull and Russell Pottorolf enter. Potty was playing baseball for the New York Yankees, and he and his wife and all the little Pots were sitting on easy street. I had also missed the arrival of Lee Krout and John Koons, who were partners in the best carpentry business in town. When I saw Lee, I wondered if he remembered the night he crawled over my rafters to put up the net for the prom. I listened in on his conversation and I discovered that two weeks ago when he was building a new wing on the Littlestown Hospital, he had bumped into Nadine Stites, now a surgical nurse, Alvina Groft, on general duty, Ginny Koontz, a children's nurse 5 and Kay Kunkel doing quite a bit of research on bacteriology. As I looked around, the smell of flowers be- came quite strong. For the first time all afternoon, I noticed the beautiful arrangement of flowers on my stage. Dawn Pettyjohn, who had become a floral designer, certainly had done a good job. By this time I realized the group had become quite hungry, so I peeped into the cafeteria to see if anyone was preparing a small lunch for them. Was I shocked! I imagine my foundation shook, thirty-four for here was William Rittase preparing the food. He had become a chef at Charlie's Restaurant, and I hadn't known. With him helping to prepare the food were Shirley Grove, Charolyn Groft, Mary Keith and Thelma Knight, all doing secretarial work with several of the different businesses in town. Suddenly outside there was a rumble of a truck and I saw John Herr pull up. He was a truck driver for the Lirrlesrown Motor Express Com- pany. With him was Dean Yealy, who had taken over his Dad's Five and Ten business, and for pastime played professional basketball. They were coming down the steps now, to the cafeteria and I noticed that three other members of the class had joined the group. Barbara Walt- man, who had become a practicing psychiatrist in town, with Betty Wolfe, her secretary. Listening to them talk as they sat down to eat, I discovered that William Benner, also an engineer, was un- able to attend, because he was taking a long rest at Harrisburg. It seemed that Bill and Larry had been trying to prove one of Stover's theories and the strain had been too much for Bill. Suddenly there was the sound of feet on the steps. I knew that two members of the class were yet to arrive, but there was only one pair of feet. Bonnie Weikert, now a medical secretary for one of the doctors in town, had smelled the food and at the last minute arrived, in time to eat-typical of her even in high school. They discussed many old memories and sang several of their class songs, but as. they got up to leave, who should come walking in but Charlie Hall, with his most famous expression Am I late? As usual Charlie had missed his train and had taken a plane. Now the day was complete for every member of that class had been accounted for. As the last member leaving pulled my door shut, I felt quite content and at peace with the world, for I, their high school, had given some- thing to them that no one could ever take away. I was their Alma Mater! O Q r 49 5077- Our 'L 9 Ygsxfv 0 'l1-'5X+f 'i'x QQ- f MUSICIANS D. .nouns L.

Senior Class Play One of the special events for the Seniors this year was the Senior Class Play, The Inner Willy, presented on October 13, 1953, under the direction of Miss LeOra Held. This successful comedy pictured a seventeen year old boy, Willy, portrayed by Dean Sell, hovered over by three maiden aunts: Aunt Hester, Nadine Stitesg Aunt Louise, Kay Kunkel, and Aunt Olga, Jeanne Blocher. Each of these aunts has a diiferent future for Willy who secretly wishes to be a geologist. Then, Inner Willy, William Benner, steps into the picture, determined to get Willy out of this mess. He succeeds in nearly driving Willy out of his mind by getting him three dates for a coming dance, Marybelle, Yvonne Weikertg Janet, Darla Lemmon, and Carol, Dot Jones, who is Willy's idol. Janet's twin sister is played by Dawn Pettyjohn. After getting in a fight with Stanley, Larry Feeser, over Carol and giving away two of his dates to Mike, james Hollinger, and Stanley, Willy becomes a man and defies his aunts. Everything turns out well and the curtain closes with Willy escorting his lady love to the dance. thirty eight SCHOOLS ARE THE REPUBLICAN LINE OF FORTIFICATIUN +1 m Underclass en fX.fw ZZ meTY?f-I i owl?

We had long awaited this day and eagerly looked forward to the tasks ahead. Books were forgotten and classrooms confused, but by mid-term we all felt at home in our new surroundings. Many of the boys and girls entered into extra-curricular activities, participating in band, sports and chorus. Memorable events of the year included the Underclassman Play, The Uncertain Age, Open House, Valentine ,Party, and the school picnic at Forest Park. Retutrning to school in the fall of 1950 our class had dwindled to 85. No longer confused we easily settled into the routine of high school life. We were proud of the fellows who so ably kept the Junior High on top in the sports field. In the second semester we ordered our school rings. Highlights of the year included the Under- classman Play, the Junior High Musical, Open House and the annual Valentine Party. After a brief vacation sixty-three of us returned to our Alma Mater to continue our studies. Setting the example for our younger school chums we wasted no time and immediately began working hard and givi-ng our time and talents to extracurricular activities. During the year the class enjoyed trips to Harrisburg, Hershey Chocolate Factory, and the Adams County Courthouse. We received our school rings and proudly displayed them to all. Full of energy and pep we decorated the auditorium for the Sweetheart Dance, at which time our queen was crowned. In 1952 only 54 members of the Class of '55 remained. The year flew by rapidly as we struggled with our chosen courses. School spirit ran high and many of us gave our all to help keep this spirit. The year was filled with many unforgettable times. We attended our first formal dance at Christmas and closed the year by ordering our class rings. Faced with just two more years of high school, 54 of us entered the portals of L.H.S. We'd come a long way and had worked hard. As the year went by we realized that our time was running out and soon we, too, would be going out into the world. Highlights of the year included receiving our class rings, decorating and planning the Prom, hoping that it would be a memorable event for the Seniors and participating in the fields of sports, drama, and band.

Barbara Swam, Jacqueline Hawk Class Colors Blue and Gray orty-two Sophomore Class Histor Three years ago 90 bewildered boys and girls entered the front door of Littlestown High School. Like every other seventh grade, we didn't know what to do or where to go. It didnit take us long, however, to find out. Soon we were an active part of the junior high school, and all too soon, the year came to an end. The next fall found only 64 members of the Class of '56. After organizing, we were very enthusiastic in finding ways to earn money for our treasury. This year we ordered our school emblems and participated in various school activities. In the spring of the year, we visited, as a class, the Gettysburg Battlefield. When we returned to school the next fall, we now considered ourselves ugreenie freshmen and we acted accordingly. The highlights of this year were our order- ing of our school rings, our trip to Harrisburg and Hershey, and a visit to the Court House in Gettysburg. Again, we participated in various school activities. The most exciting one for us being the Valentine Dance since we were made responsible for the decorations and one of our members, Suzanne Long was chosen Queen of Hearts. September 8, 1953, found 54 eager-beavers entering senior high school for the Hrst time, hereafter to be known as the silly sophomores. Wanting to earn money, we sold fruit cakes during the holiday season and held a public skating party. Many members for the First time, joined the basketball team. The year climaxed with the ordering of our school rings and each was looking forward to becoming jolly juniors. SHIRLEY FEESER, Class Historian Left to Right: First Row: B. Helwig, S. Hamer, K.

Dance Band For five years now, our Littlestown High School Dance Band has been successful in bringing to us the songs we all love to hear. The band, under the direction of Mr. Charles Tressler, is noted for its stock of the latest hits and a few oldies that linger in our memory. Because of its popularity, the band has played at school dances, special assemblies and other func- tions. There are Hve seniors leaving the organization this year. They are Jeanne Blocher, Dawn Petty- john, Alvina Groft, Darla Lemmon, and Dorothy Jones. We all hope that the hand continues its splendid reputation for many years to come.

Cperetta The Count and the Coed The cast for the annual operetta consisted of Birdie Boggs, Susan Harnerg Amy Arnold, Darla Lemmon, Dolly McSpadden, Dorothy Jones, Miss Agatha Lockstep, Patti Long, Dr. Cicero McSpadden, James Hollinger, Mark Watson, Ronald Strevigg Hamilton Hunter, Terry Brown, Sleepy Carter, Bill Simons, Marjorie Blackwood, Joan Koontz, Dan Flanigan, Bill Benner, Snooze Andrews, Dean Sell. The story concerns Snooze Andrews, who is the mischievous comedian of Marden College. He is usually getting into scrapes resulting with the displeasure of President McSpadden. This is unfortunate, because Snooze is in love with Dolly McSpadden and is extremely anxious to gain the good will of her father, who is already worried over the necessity of raising the final fifty thousand dollars for the college endowment fund. On the day of our story, poor Snooze has one more encounter with a trailic officer, merely because he made a hurried trip to the city to get a costume for use in the May Festival program which is to take place that evening, when the glee clubs are planning an elaborate program. In his efforts to hide away from the ofhcer, and yet con- tinue his part in the program, Snooze puts on the costume he has rented, and successfully disguises himself as the proprietor of a delicatessen store. Now it just happens that Dr. McSpadden is expecting a distinguished guest for the program who is Count Gus- tave von Weinerheister, a wealthy but eccentric foreigner, who is well known as the benefactor of colleges such as Marden. The president mistakes Snooze, in disguise, for the Count. In view that the traffic oflicer is present at the time Snooze is obliged to continue the deception. This is not altogether distasteful to him, however, because both Dr. and Mrs. McSpadden have urged Dolly to offer the Count every possible encouragement, in the hope that she may win a title for herself, as well as a fortune for the college. Miss Agatha, housemother at the girls' dormitory, has taken an interest in the Count until he finally confesses his identity to all. At the climax, a registered letter is brought to Dr. McSpadden from the real Count. It con- veys his regret at being unable to attend the program, but says that he was much impressed by the courtesy of one of the Marden boys, who helped his chauffeur that morning. For that reason he is sending a check for 550,000 for the endowment fund. Of course the courteous boy was Snooze and Dr. McSpadden feels that this great service to Marden entitles him to a reward. Snooze claims Dolly, and the end foretells a rosy future for all. fifty one J Left to Right: Kneeling: F. Miller, L. Shull, S. Feeser. Seated: W. Pettyjohn, A. Sell, S. Baumgardner, B.

Q77 -John Dryden This year marks the twentieth anniversary of the Littlestown High School Band, under the direction of Mr. Paul A. Harner. The band was first organized in 1934, and at that time had a total of twenty-two un-uniformed mem- bers. Over this period of years the band has made many great strides and now is a first prize, seventy- piece, well uniformed band. All credit for the band goes to our very capable and patient director, Mr. Paul A. Hamer, who just recently was made a member of the American National Band Association, of which only 94 musicians in the United States are members. The band has had a very successful year, playing at football games, assemblies, and the annual Spring Concert. They are happily looking forward to a summer of parades, carnivals, and picnics. In the Spring many members played in the County Band Concert held at Delone Catholic High School. Several members of our band also attended District Band, from which one of our members was chosen to play in the State Band. Senior members of the band are as follows: Larry Mummert, Yvonne Weikert, Barbara Waltman, Dawn Pettyjohn, Darla Lemmon, Alvina Groft, Kay Kunkel, John Herr, and Dean Yealy. ry two Senior Chorus Left to Right: First Row: S.

Senior High Football The Thunderbolts were not too successful in football this year. Although starting out the season with a thriller with Biglerville, they went on winning one but dropping four in the Laurel League, ending up one from the bottom. In the non-league games the Bolts were beaten by Frederick Q22-6l, downed by Delone Q27-61, but tied Biglerville twelve all. A very aggressive team, the Bolts were not shut-out once in all eight of their games. Touchdowns were distributed fairly evenly among the baclcfield and ends. Selby took top honors with three, while Kump and Kress followed with two, Sell, Showvalcer, Hall, and Chronister with one. Kump gained the most ground and did most of the passing. Seniors on the team were Sell, Chronister, Todt, Orndorff, Hall, and Bowers. Manager was Ken Rineaman. Co-captains were Sell and Bowers. Fellows who saw the most action and who were usually found on the starting line-up were: Ends-Showvalcer and Selby Tackles-Todt and Bucher Guards-Goulcer and Bowers Center-Sellman Backs-Sell, Hall, Kump, and Chronister Ending the season at Delone on a cold Saturday night, the Bolts put up a ferocious fight the whole way, completing it with a beautiful pass from Kump to Chronister in the end zone. Although they were beaten, they maintained their title of no shut-outs. The team along with the coaches, Mr. Bream and Mr. Evans, was a clean, hard fighting, high spi- rited group oftfellows that tried its best, to be sure. A good ending which describes the Bolts perfectly, would be a statement sometimes used by old sea- faring captains when they wrote up the log-book: All the brothers were valiant. sixty one junior High Football Left to Right: Seated: F.

Senior High Basketball The Littlestown High School Thunderbolts had an exceptionally good year with basketball this year. In the league they won S, lost 5, and ended up with a percentage of .615 for the season. Includ- ing games out of the league, the overall picture left them with ten wins and twelve defeats. The third place, taken by the Bolts, entitled them to enter in the Shaughnessy playoffs. Their first game of the playoffs with Biglerville, on the Gettysburg College court, they dropped 57-42. The Bolts were a little shy of the court and did HOU start to score until the last quarter, but their Hnal assault was not enough. They also lost to York Springs in a Shaughnessy game by a tight score of 46-45. In Class C, District Three playoffs, the Bolts were eliminated by Scotland by ten points, the final score being 60-50 in favor of Scotland. The game was played on the Gettysburg High School court. Again, as it seems to be the Bolts tradition to come back in the last half, they out scorecl their op- ponents l9-12 in the closing quarter of the game. Littlestown's outstanding player this year was Dean Yealy. Dean scored 105 points out of the league, 253 in the league, 31 in the play-offs and 14 in the Scotland game. All totaled it brings a net of 403 points. Not bad for a 5' IOHH, 135 pound senior who was pitted against some of the best boys in the league. Following close by were Jay Showvalcer and Stanley Mummert who were named, along with Dean, to be on the All-Star Team of Adams County League. The Seniors leaving old L.H.S. this year are Yealy, Bowers, and Chronister. Only three will be taken away from the team, leaving a good chance for the Bolts to report their actions next year. The starting line-up next season possibly will be S. Mummert at center with D. Selby and G. Snyder at guard and Zuliclc and D. Kump at forward. Watch these boysg they are going to be a fighting team and the team to beat when the starting whistle blows to start their first game next year. sixty three Left to Right: First Row: N.

Coach, Mr. Richard Thomas. Manager, Robert Shadle. o o Junior High Basketball The Junior Varsity, coached by Mr. Thomas, played eleven games during the season. They won six out of the eleven games. The first string players were James Zulick, Fred Busbey, Leonard Potter, James Sellman, and Thomas Goulcer. At no time were these boys outclassed and they have shown good promise for next year. No doubt all of them will play varsity basketball when the 1954-55 season opens.
