OPPORTUNITIES FOR LEARNING BROADEN ED AT SENIOR HALL a William R. Fisher Director of Secondary Education ? Carl E, Stump SENIOR HALL—The site of the vocational and academic facilities for the senior high Assistant Director of Secondary students at Milton Hershey School. Eduéation Progressive improvement best characterizes the program at Milton Hershey School during the past decade. Senior Hall was completely ren- ovated. All classrooms were refurbished and carpeted. New lighting and an improved public address and telephone system were installed. The audi- torium was provided with modern stage facilities, including lighting and sound systems. The East wing, vacated by junior high students, was transformed into a science area. Anew wing was added to the auto shop to house equip- ment for front-end alignment and for testing, including a dynamometer. Courses in Food Services, General Building Trades, an accelerated Elec- tronics course, and Offset Printing were introduced. French joined Ger- man in the foreign language department, where a language laboratory became a valuable teaching aid. Educational television was added to the line up of overhead and movie projectors, tape recorders, and record players as audio visual aids. Courses of study were revised and instruc- tion in core subjects was organized in adjoining areas. Elective courses, as well as remedial work, were introduced into an expanding summer school program. 8 FACULTY AND CURRICULA Virgil L. Alexander William G. Altland “ ” 2115 .

Miss Risser received a Bachelor of Arts de- gree from Goshen College and a Master of Arts degree from Columbia University. She began her teaching career at MHS in 1931. Miss Risser is a past President of the Businessand Profession- al Women’s Club and a member ofthe American Association of University Women. She served as avolunteer Nurses Aid during World War II, and hasbeena Sunday School teacher since 1931. Now, as she completes her thirty-ninth year of service to MHS, the entire School family extends sincerest appreciation for the invaluable help which shehas givenus over the years. We cannot count as progress the loss through retirement this year of the services of Chester I. Timmins. “‘Chet’’, ashe was called by his associates, was born August 5, 1905 in the town of Frackville, Pennsylvania. He attended Kutztown State Teachers College where he received a B. S. Degree and later did post graduate work at Duke University, Penn State, and Colby College in Maine. He first taught at Frackville High School in the English department; he later taught at Lemoyne High School as an instructor in social studies. Hecameto MHSin August 1947, and since then has taught English and mathematics. He has been active in his small home community of Sand Beach, having been a Sunday School teacher and having served on the Church Board. Hehas also been the auditor of South Hanover Township. A dedicated teacher, an understanding father, a solid citizen of his community and of hisnation, Mr. Timmins is the kind of man we are proudtohavehadas a member of the Milton Hershey School faculty. The end of this past decade has marked the retirement of Merl Lester Stuckey after 23 years of service as a printing teacher at MHS. Born September 24, 1913 in Hershey, he attended a country elementary school and then finished his high school education at Hershey High. Mr. Stuckey attended Lebanon Valley Col- lege, Stoudt State University in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania State University, and received his Master’s Equivalent in Industrial education. As well as acredit to our school, he was a benefit to his community and country. He was a teacher, chorister and played in the orchestra at Sunday School; he sang with the Harrisburg Symphony acapella Choir; in the European Theater during World War II; is amember of the VFW and the First United Methodist Church and Sunday School. Now, we say good-bye to Mr. Stuckey; his vacancy will be filled but the memories of him shall linger forever in the mindsof the 237 students he has instructed in Printing. Leah C, Risser Chester I.

Aichele The Department of Business Affairs, under thesupervisionof John M. Aichele, business coordinator, and Clyde R. Ebersole, comptroller in the Accounting Department, has played a greatly expanded rolein the devel- opment of our school. Over the past decadethey have had an expanded role in the renovation and the construction of student homes, and the erection of Catherine Hall. Their interest is now centered on Founder’s Hall. In addition to these extra activities, they supervise the buying of all equipment and the operation of the meal bus and bus fleet. OUR COMPTROLLER RETIRES This year Milton Hershey School says good- bye to a trusted and loyal employee. Clyde F. Ebersole retires after having been comptroller for 21 years. Mr. Ebersole was born February 11, 1905 in the village of Bachmansville, located about five miles southeast of Hershey and his early years were spent in Hershey. Preparation for his career began with a program of studies in accounting from the Walton School of Commerce in Chicago. He has worked for different divisions of the Hershey Enterprises all his life starting with the Chocolate Company’s holdings in Cubain 1931. He worked there for 15 years and then returned to Hershey where he worked for the Estates for the next three years. He took his present job on New Year’s Day of 1949. Hehas beena valuable member of the community having served with the Hershey Volunteer Fire Company for 24 years and a member of the Hershey Rotary Clubfor 3 years. And, so after along and invaluable career with Milton Hershey School and the Hershey Enter- prises we bid Mr. Ebersole a fond farewell. RETIRED COMPTROLLER—Clyde F.

This staff directs all phases of the enroll- ment, adjustment, and termination processes and counsels any student having a problem related to his new environment. Every effort is made to place a student in his preferred course of study, to encourage him tomake the best use of his abilities, and to assist him in finding a position after graduation. The increasing number of students attending college or tech- nical schools has added to the load of the college placement officer who assists with correspondence and arranges for interviews and College Board tests.

Coulter, attempt to cure hypochondriac Tim Polito of another illness. The dental clinic, backed by a highly trained staff, has very modern facilities for caring for the students. The two major educational facil- ities have their own clinics which work inde- pendently during the regular school year. Dur- ing the summer, the Catherine Hall clinic pro- vides for dental services of all students. Certifi- cates are awarded to students who practice good oral hygiene. The dental staff gives regular checkups, using X-ray, cleans teeth, fills caries, and provides excellent services in orthodontia. Dr: Donald R. Price Dentist Dr. John Cooper Orthodontist Excellent medical care is provided by a pro- fessional staff using the finest equipment. The medical team, directed by Dr. D. Lee Backen- stose, has proven itself very efficient. There are three separate clinics for treating minor injuries. A special area has been reserved inthe Hershey Hospital for special treatment of serious injuries and contagious diseases amoung students. Whenever the necessity arises, outside special- ists are available. “TO BRUSH OR NOT TO BRUSH’—M, Snyder M. Freed, M. Markley and A. Furst, of the dental team perform thei regular checkup on sophomore D. Dinkle, A NEW CONCEPT IN FAMILY LIVING OUR HOME —Mr. Alfred T. Gibble (director of Houseparent Staff) poses before one of the many comfortable homes. In no aspect of life at Milton Hershey School, other than building con- struction, has there been greater changethanin student homelife. New or completely renovated homes house an average of sixteen students super- vised by a housefather and housemother. Two students, each with his own desk, bed, dresser, and closet, shareasingle room. In addition, rec- reational and hobby rooms add to the worthy use of leisure time. Bet- ter trained houseparents, concentration of authority, and an organized sports program are other areas of improvement. Extended vacations at Kaster, at Christmas, and during the summer place MHS on a similar plane with the best of private schools. Transportation by a station wag- on for each student home gives a homelike atmosphere. Various hobby posts, featuring photography, ham radio, model airplane, music, fly- tying and fishing, calf and art help students develop a satisfying and ful- filling hobby.

(THE SCHOOL ) YEARBOOK — 19 0 | a decadof PROGRESS 1960--19 This yearbook captures the truly significant events of the Milton Hershey School family in a lively manner. It is not only a summary of these events; it is also a book which serves to refresh our memory of our happy days at M.H.S. in word and picture. “A Decade of Progress,” the theme for this year’s ACRO- POLIS, was properly chosen. Change at Milton Hershey School has made it one of the finest schools in the nation. Building and renovation has given students the best facilities and student life has also improved with change in policy and better counseling in the past decade. Innovations in the ACROPOLIS include the pictures of houseparents and the grouping of juniors for their pictures by clusters instead of sections. A broader scope of M.HLS. is pro- vided in the yearbook, which is edited and printed by the stu- dents. Under the guidance of ACROPOLIS adviser, Orville H. Strait and the editor-in-chief, Joseph Davies, we present this year’s ACROPOLIS for your approval.
