alll'-. YP , ? f Ml P Q wi PM ' m io tuuflti aiizxttlliuuu P The 4'Pennsylvania Dutchn is a way of life: The Christmas Mputzv, the crazy-clean housewife with a broom, Amish wagons on Ridge road, clocks set half an hour ahead, apple tarts and snitz,' pies, fat red barns, horse chestnuts spilling their nuts on the brick pavements of village streets. Ya . . . it is a good, clean, wholesome way of lifefa way which more of the world should follow. On this, the one hundred and twenty-fifth anniversary of Mechanicsburgfa community founded by Dutch descendants and still marked with Dutch influencepwe, the Editors, dedicate this book to our community and its way of life. lt is our fervent hope that the future will provide for us the opportunity to eat Schnitz 'un Kneppw and remember the quaint, colorful Pennsylvania Dutch and our community.

All of us here have had the privilege of becoming acquainted with our fine social heritagefa heritage of liberty and law, of science and art, of language and literature, of morals and religion. In order that our world civilization may have stability it must be seasoned with the ingredients of righteousness, charity, service, and sacrifice. Its character and fruits will be determined primarily by the extent to which you and I are energized intellectually and moved spiritually to practice the Golden Rule, and to believe in the brotherhood of man. You have been taught the value of knowledge, adequate preparation, a trained mind, a healthy body, moral character, and a perseverance that triumphs over difhculties. As you draw on these re- sources with conhdence you will be equal to each occasion. lX'1ay your paths lead you to ever nobler and happier endeavors. Congratulations and our sincere best wishes. fd PRINCIPAL CARL L. GRAHAM More than one thousand individuals have contributed their services to create the history herein recorded by the Class of 1954. Each student and teacher endeavored, through classes, teams, clubs, and other small units, to secure personal achievement and advance the best interests of the larger unit -his school. May we recognize and appreciate the singular contributions, large or small, by each person associated with Mechanicsburg Area joint High School. At first glance, this volume is fundamentally a pictorial review of school activities for the 1953-54 term. Photographs alone, however, furnish only two dimensions. The essential third dimension de- pends on the imagination, the memory of the viewer. Herein is revealed the true value of the Artisan. Each photograph has varied impactfvictory or defeat, joy or sadness, pleasure or disappointment. However, the over-all effect as one scans these pages will be fond recollections of good times, good friends, and grand experiences. The Class of 1954, represented by the Artisan staH', is to be congratulated on an excellent pro- duction. Nlay your third dimensional view of its pages deepen with each passing year. Zz!

Ach! l hear that the class of 354 is about to outen the glow of their friendships and happy times at MHSH Our yesterdays at MHS have shaped our today. Ahead of us lies even a greater day-one in which each of us will izngplore the L'XVorlds about us. Therefore we will select our future rolls as all of us have a contribution to make in 1 e. We have behind us a strong beginning under the leadership of our competent Freshman Class ofiicers: President, Robert Enckg Vice-President, james Davis, Secretary-Treasurer, Sandra Becker, Student Council Representative, Carl Straub. We couldn't help but have assurance ofa pleasant and most gratifying school life. Bring back your memories of that timid freshman year. Yes, we finally entered into the picture through our Freshman Assembly. Then came 1951, a second year as upper-classmen. Although sophomoric in manner, we brought forth fruitful results. f'The Regentw, we chose as our distinctive class ring-and who'll ever forget that Sophomore Assembly! No Suit for Billn? The class party in March, our social event, highlighted the year. Entering our junior year, full force ahead, we made strong attempts in establishing ourselves permanently. Our hidden talent began to peer through. This was quite evident in the junior play, A Mind of Her Own, which will long remain in our train of memories. lt invited a packed house, thus enriching our treasury. Not only did we possess a dramatic excellence, but band and glee club also felt junior influence. In the eyes of the seniors, we proved our true worth when home room 16 vainly walked away with the basketball pennant, after defeating home room 20, needless to mention, a senior home room. But we juniors weren't contented: we yearned additional success. So onward to prove our volley ball prowess by winning the intramural tournament. lt took the class of '54 to have an excellent junior Assembly, unlike that of former years: a program in the form of a T.V. show led by emcee Straub, won us honors of distinction. A serious and most impressive National Honor Society assembly proudly took in eight members of our fellow classmatesfand five members the following year. This all marked success on the part of our persevering honor students. To further our reputation socially, we gave to the Seniors of '53 a most memorable prom. 42 wx iw, V , fm Q WK ww - L fsrf-as :K L A 15?

They elected as their oflicers: Presi- dent, Martin Myers: Vice-President, Linda Mohler, Secretary-Treasurer, Marlene 'Iumperg Student Council, Thomas Simpson. New subjects and teachers were quickly adapted to and the frosh emerged after the first six weeks with an outstanding high honor list. Not only as freshmen, but even now their can't be matched. Their honor roll outnumhers all others of the school. Their sophomore ring committee chose UGolden Arrow as their class ring with the class agreeing whole-heartedly. Martin Myers, -john Mackey, Marty Bowman and -Iayne Diehl guided them through an eventful year as their class ofiicers. The main event as 10th graders was the sophomore class assemblyfand whoill ever forget it!! A play and talent show proved the soph's to have uwhat it takes , even on stage. Their sophomore class party will long be remembered to every junior.

Kathcrinc Follctt and Anna Wlitham undvrstand hcr plight and arc cqually cnthusiastic about hcr proposcd trip for an intcrvic-w with Mr. Ilohn Craig of thc Stock Company in Nctx York City. Hcr undcrstanding mothcr plcads with Ruth to tt'll Papa that hcr ambition is to bc-comc an actrcss. Clinton. too bothcrcd with thc dis- gusting cat and thc dribblc, dribblc of thc moncy for groccry bills, has no idca of his daughtcr's visions. A formcr navy man himself, hc fccls that Ruth should attcnd lN1iss Glavitrs Physical Culturc School, out Brooklint' way. Clinton is so insistcnt that hc invitcs Miss Glavin and Mr. Baglcy. a Y.lN1.C.A. man. to spcnd an cvcning Mlooking Ruth ovc'r . Trying hard not to submit, Ruth hnally is acccptcd at thc school and is told to bring hcr scrgt' hloonicrs along thc following day. Bcsidcs this, Ruth has bccn askcd by Frcd. a Harvard man, to go to Class Day. Although wanting to, shc is still hesitant about acccpting thc invitation. lfrccl. aftcr bcing assurvd it wasn't Usomconc clsvu, promiscs to writc Ruth at hcr room in thc city. 'l'hr'n, fatlivr is told l At Hrst hr' docsn't say much- but thcn, man! Papa's first qucstion is whcthcr Ruth has thc stuff to go on Broadway. After continual pcrsuasion and pcrsistcncy, Clinton rcalizcs that hc can't changc Ruth's mind. Rccalling somc of' thc cvcnts and cxpcricnccs of his childhood days and his latcr trips as a sailor, fathcr givcs his daughtcr sonic helpful advicc for hcr ncw vcnturc. Hc rccalls his unhappy tiincs and promises Ruth his support for hcl' dcsirv. Tclling mother to takt' Lfarc of thc ufaith Gnd , Clinton givcs Ruth a hundrcd dollars. So cxcitcd and thrillcd by this act. Ruth almost cries, and promiscs to makc it up to Papa somc- how. Indccd.

'l hat was the pattern of the season as the Cats lost all but one ol' their league games. The lone victory proved an exciting Qatne as .Iitn Price and Ken Herzog of Enola hooked up in a true pitchers duel. The locals edged the Panthers by a 3-2 score. The injuries mentioned earlier felled two ol' the teani's returning lettertnen. .Iohn Heath was unable to throw because of a football injury to his shoulder and -Iiin Colban also had arui trouble. This knocked out the keystone combo lirotu the previous year: it also created an aperture in the Nl-Burg iniield which was later filled by players with only qlunior Varsity experience. Bob lfnck was the leading' hitter on the XN'ildcal nine as he posted a .289 mark. -lack Quigley was the leading pitcher percentage- wise as he scored a victory over Shippensburg in his lone decision.

JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL Mr. Martin's pride and joy, the M-Burg AIX' base- ball teain, posted a good record as he completed his first season at the helm of the Ba bycats. The team played good ball throughout the season. especially considering the conditions they had to overcome. The rainy season of spring was a terrihe hindrance to the boys as they tried to play the full schedule. Except for the New Cumberland game in which they were routed. the -junior Varsity played competi- tive baseball with that never-say-die spirit which accounted for many of their close games. Top individual honors in the hitting and pitching departments went to Bill Brandt and lid Harne respectively. Brandt sewed up the hitting contest with a .368 mark. Harne was the little big man while on the mound for the .Iunior Cats as he posted a Bel won and lost record. Perhaps the high point ofthe season was the Edison game at home when the XYildcats defeated the Harris- burg team by a score of 6 1 in a game featured by daring base running. Brandt stole home in a surprise move late in the contest and Danny NVentz gave the partisan crowd a thrill as he moved around the bases in a series of actions consisting of a steal, a run-down play, and an error. The 1953 .jayvees had a reasonably successful season and produced many promising ballplayers. MHS Game Opp. 8 . . . Carlisle . . 5 4 . . .N. Cumberland . 9 5 . . . Carlisle . . 9 7 . . .N.
