DEDICATION l We, the Class of 1956, dedicate our yearbook to Elinor L. White in recogni- tion of her great efforts to prepare each member of our class for Life's road ahead. Ever mindful of the students' welfare, Miss Wliite willingly gave of her time both in offering us a well-round- ed background in English and in giving us personal encouragement in our plans for the future. ELINOR L. WHITE In appreciation of his interest and understanding as our Guidance Coun- selor, of his patience and assistance in the classroom, and of the pleasant, cheer- ful atmosphere created by his friendly personality, we, the Senior Class, hereby dedicate the 1956 ,SOCK to Probert A. Lecce. ROBERT A. Lneci-3 4 FORE ORD What is Time? The shadow on the dial, the striking of the clock, the running of the sand, day and night, summer and winter, months, years, centuries-these are but arbitrary and outward signs, the measure of Time, not Time itself. Time is the Life of the soul. -Longfellow I.

Abwnr-Berlin, Secretary. tudent Counci The governing body of Montoursvillc Area Ioint High School is our Student Council organization which consists of representatives from grades 7 through 12. These students, advised by Mrs. Decker and Mr. Kissell, are responsible for making decisions and plans, giving opinions, and acting together as a group on behalf ol the student body. Each home room elects one representative to serve on the Councilg one person is also chosen to represent boys' athletics, girls' athletics, and the Future Farmers of America. They work with the faculty and administration to create better understanding and more co-operation, and to improve student-teacher relationships. During the year they have sponsored many activi- ties. The group has undertaken the task of adjusting the budget for the various clubs and classes. The Council assumed the responsibility of pro- viding for a dance each month of the school tcrmg for this reason, our dances were very successful. The Snowball dance was perhaps the most out- standing event sponsored by our governing body. This affair, held annually, took place january 8. This organization, found in many schools today, has been very helpful in providing sound guidance and a democratic form of representation at lVl.A.j.l l.S. S'I'IIlJIiN'I' COUNCIL -JUNIOR Hrs!

Sitler, George. F IJ The Warririrs opened the 1955 season with a 14-0 win over the Bulldogs oot ar of Jersey Shore. Bobby Ceorge and Bob Converse sparked the second half drive to victory. . REVIEW Tr0y's Trojans, finest in the school history, used a forward handoff on a punt to set up their tying score, then threw a 7 yard touchdown pass in the last 25 seconds to defeat Montour 14-7. Newcomer and Dawson stood out for Montour in a bruising defensive battle. joe Gallagher raced 35 yards for a score on his first varsity carry to set the pace for lVlontour's easy 27-0 win over Miiilinburg. The blocking of Bunk Robson, Fred Cilbert, and joe King paved the way for the score. The Bed Raiders of Montgomery were edged 12-7 in a close league bat- tle. Bob Sitler, Terry Aderhold, Bob Tallman and Charles Lichter paced the last quarter Warrior surge. 7-6 count. Montour, led bv Bob Converse, Bob Lvons, and Bud Warlier I1 l H 0 L, 3' The Warriors dropped the league championship to Canton by a close , 6 57 completely dominated play, but couldn't overcome Canton's early lead. 7 Harvey Sitler scored three times and Bob Clair, Hambone Dawson, and Bed Fellinger led the defense, which held South in checlc over the ground for the first time this year, as the Warririrs won 25-12. A 69 yard lightning-like thrust by Harvey Sitler in the last 3 minutes of the game gave the Warriors a 20-14 win over a good Watsontowli club. Kip Shirm, Tom Long, and Phil Bieber stood out defensively. Dean Mausteller, Jimmy Johns, and Tom McCall played brilliant de- fensive ball in a O-O tie with the Indians of Muncy. It was the poorest offensive effort of the Blue and Cold in the past two years. Paul Kahler kicked the extra point, Bob and Harvey Sitler led the offense, and Doug Harner and Hambone Dawson paced the defense in a hard fought 7-6 win in the season finale with Mill Hall. 14 st Ron t 1 1' if , n Lr g S irm ll Si Lr Les, Newcomer, Steiner.

Nineteen fifty-five saw the VVarriors add six wins to the nine garnered in 1954, and this gave the Blue and Gold the best twoeseason record C15- 3-ID in the history of the school. Over the two seasons, the VVarriors gave up only 92 points, while scoring 331. Defensively, the VVarriors, who were fourth best in the entire state in 1954, were nearly impregnable as they lead the league in total defense for the second straight year. Olfensively, the team rushed for better than 200 yards a game to rank second in the league. Outstanding team spirit and co-operation were featured in the season's play. Several games were won on the strength of the second and third line boys, proving that it talaes every man on the squad giving his best in order to have a successful team. Some outstanding individual performances were turned in by Bob Converse against Canton, llarvey Sitlcr against VVatsontown and South Willizinise port, and 11ambone Dawson against lVlill llall. These same three boys won individual honors dur- ing the season by being named Back of the Weekl' and Hlainemen of the Week in the VVilliamsport area. Harvey was also named Back of the Year, and all three boys were honored by being selected for the All-Conference Team. The Blue and Gold surged forward in the last half of the season to better an already excellent record which had hegun with the defeat of jersey Shore. This was the first shutout handed the Bulldogs hy a Montour tcamg it also was the second year in a row and the third time in twenty years we have downed the Black and Orange. The sophomores displayed a tip-topl' perform- ance and did a fine job as we ran roughshod over Mifllinhurg in a game that could have ended 60-O. Reserves Bob Sitler, joe Gallagher, Charles Lichter, and Boh Tallman pulled the Montgomery game out of the hre in the closing minutes, after in- juries had henched the front-line hoys. The 7-6 loss to champion Canton, in a game that saw the clock run out as we drove to the goal line with two downs to go, was a hearthreaker. Al- though we outgained the league champs 259 yards to 75 yards, we found that titles are won on points -not yards. The splendid victory over the toughest team on the schedule, South Side, will long he remem- hered. This was the second time in two years that we defeated the Mountaineers, and only the lirst time we were ahle to put wins hack to hack against them. The team made a great comeback against a strong VVatsontown team and defeated them 20-14. Another feat of the VVarriors was the downing of Muncy, as our hoys put forth every effort in turning hack every thrust hy the Blue and White. Last, hut not least, Boh Sitler made a last minute touch- downg and Paul Kahler kicked the extra point to luring victory for Montour and to exemplify the up-and-at-'em spirit which every member of the team showed throughout the season.

At half time, Greta Schrader, the Homecoming Queen of 1955, was crowned by thc participating co-captains. She and her attendants, Sherry Pries and Patricia Plants, were presented bouquets of red roses. The queen and her court were honored that evening at a dance held in the school gymnasium. ln the decorations for the affair, Montour's colors, blue and gold, predominated. Music was provided by the school dance orchestra. This has become an important event at M. A. J. H. S. since the first Homecoming Game was held in 1954. Pat Plants, Bob Converse Football King and Queen ll On October I5 the school gymnasium was the scene of the football dance at which, for the first time, a football king and queen were crowned. Our six cheerleaders were in charge of the event. The crowning of the king and queen, Robert Converse and Patricia Plants, who were chosen by :he student body, was performed by Greta Schrader, head cheerleader. After the presentation of a corsage to Pat and 1 boutonniere to Bob, the royal couple led a dance in their honor. Bob, as captain of the football team, made an iutstanding record for M. A. H. S. this year. Pat served as majorette in the marching band. Both were members of the senior class. Par Plants, Greta Schrader, Queen, Sherry Fries. Flaming Foliage 9 The senior class elected Emily Mosteller to represent Montoursville in the annual Flaming Foliage Festival held Saturday and Sunday, Octo- ber 8 and 9, at Renovo, Pennsylvania. Her escort was Tom McCall. A parade, in which all contestants participated, was the highlight of Saturday afternoon. The event was climaxed Sunday afternoon by the crowning of the 1955 Flaming Foliage Queen. Emily Mosteller-Flaming Foliage Queen Marchin Band left in Iliglzf-Plants, Smith, Fry, Connelly, Bertin, McLaughlin, Weigel, Sheaffer, Guinter. Our marching band, under the direction of W2lllilCC Duyer, had a very successful season dur- ing the l955f56 term. Perhaps one of their great- est tasks was that of performing during the half- time at the football games. Their many drills and Formations added greatly to their fine appearances. The band participated in the annual i'lVlummers Parade at South VVilliamsport for which it was awarded first prize in the class of bands consisting of 45 to 50 members. The group, as guests of the Penn State Blue Band, also attended Band Day held November 5 at State College. Dance Orchestra First Row. left to Right-Martin, Hensel, Mosteller, Van Horn, Larson.

The dance orchestra of Montoursville Area loint High School, under thc direction of Mr. Duyer, has become a very important part of our school life. The group is composed of Dorothy Ilenscl, Emily Nlosteller, lames Martin, and Margaret Van Horn on saxophoneg Beverly Allison, soloist, Sue Willstin, Eugene Boyles, and Neil Shipman on trumpet, Malcolm lustice and lohn Bennett on tromboneg Hugh Van llorn at the string bassg lane McCarty at the drums, and Donna Larson as vocalist. The band played for school dances and other social functions and provided assembly programs for other high schools. Our fourteen musicians played every Friday at noon, supplying dance tunes for the student body. These dances have become increasingly popular and have kept the dance band very much in demand. A special attraction this year was a girls' sextette, organized by Mr. Duyer, which featured the girls of the band singing current songs. This was an experiment which was quite successful. qw vw. 5'dm ga. , , 5 2,12 1 ,uw Awww- ,uv-X Q Q Y First Row, left to Rightflk Sauter, D. Mull, McCarty, Harker, Goslz, Gumhlc, English, Bosworth.

The play, under the direction of Edith L. VVright, was the first dramatic production of the Class of '57. The plot of the story revolved around a typical American boy who was part of a not-so-typical American family in a typical Amer- ican small town. The llunters had all they could do to cope with their mischievous teenager who always Htriedn to do the right thing. Barbara, his sister, had her problems, too. Gloria Green, a l'emme'l'atalc, was determined to take over jerry VVashburn, Barbara's one-and-only. The rollicking and delightful experiences which came about as a result of the pranks of jimmy, the leading character, made for lots of excitement and never a dull moment in The More the Merrierf' Seated, left to Riglr1fLoekarcl, flees First Rrnv - Connelly, VVomelsdorf Marti, 1.

They spent the day touring the class rooms and becoming ac- quainted with the campus and the various phases of college life. This trip proved to be very worth-while and informative. The year's program featured several speeches and informal talks given by arealmown edu- cators. A special assembly, with several teachers and club members participating, was sponsored by the group in liebruary. ll l I Tri-Hi-Y An active organization within our school is the Tri-lli-Y Club, a Christian organization for girls of grades 10 through l2. The Christmas toy drive for the Bethune-Douglas Center was a project of the group in which each girl brought some small gift to be wrapped and sent to a needy child. The animal Mother-Daughter Banquet, another highlight of the clubs activities, was held May 2, with Mr. P. D. Mitchell, director of the llethuncs Douglas Center, as guest speaker. The group provided Christmas entertainment at the county home and benelited the school and coin- munity in various other ways.

The club, with a mem- bership of about 15, niet monthly in the school library. Following are a few activities of the past year. hlr. Iames Bressler, an archeologist of note and a member ol' the Archeological Society, spoke to the group on the lnclian history of this area. He also displayed artifacts which he had found at the site of Fort lkluney and other places in that area. The Club presented the Christmas program for the Lycoming County Historical Society. It was a playlet entitled Snow Over Bethlehem taken from the book by Katherine Nlilhouse. At one of the later meetings Mr. Ralph Smith, Assis- tant County Superintendent, spoke on Tales of the West Branch. The largest project was the purchasing ol' the Little Red School House. Our contribution was over 55200, and a number of textbooks and other relics were collected for the museum. The junior Historians ended the school term with a picnic at the Tiadaghton Elm. Future Homema zers of America Mrs. Brown, our home economics teacher and cafeteria manager, is adviser for the Montoursville Chapter of Future Homemakers of America. Mem- bership in this organization is open to all girls, grades nine through twelve. Through their activities, the members strive to further the primary purpose of the club which is to promote growing appreciation of the joys and satisfaction of home-making. This year they have participated in radio pro- grams, assemblies, and other similar events. They meet in our home economics department during activity periods. This organization is a part of the National F. H. A. and consists of about twenty-five members. 'W nfl: T3 IQ 5, WL y., ...f' This younger generation!

The play-written by mlilliillll Buily, choral director, and Elimbeth Holleu- heck, school librarian-was adapted from a book of the same name by Rosznnund Du-lardin. Songs from Carou- sel, Student Prince, and South Pacific were featured. The plot of the story revolved around a group of young college students who were spending their summer on a SllUVVl702lI, producing plays at various river towns. Through this they gained experience, enjoyment, and earned money for college. The story is amusing, sad, and entertaining as it portrays the fun and carefree excitement of college days. Accompuniinent for the show wus provided by hlrs. Ilollenbeck and members of the high school band. You'1l never walk alone Don't leave, jeff . . .

Our years at M. A. H. S. are now over. Each member of the Class of 1956 is ready to try his wings . . . to fly out into a new and fascinating world . . . to find the course in life he will follow. But let us pause for a moment and turn back the hands of time to the beginning of the busiest, most exciting, and perhaps the most wonderful year of our lives-the year we were seniors. ln thinking over the past year, we are reminded of the quiet awe we felt on our first day back at school in September. We had arrived . . . we now had the privileges of being first in the cafeteria line, of occupying front seats during assembly programs, and of having the north end of the building to ourselves-or almost to ourselves. We must not forget the sophomores of Room 3. The position we held was not one of few responsibilities, as we soon discovered. We im- mediately met an onslaught of themes, projects, and other written work. We spent hours in the library doing research, we studied vocabulary until we could outtalk, outwrite, and outwit even the most assiduous underclassman, and we learned, from start to finish, the policies of fighting for our rights. Many seniors had full schedules, with few study halls or none at all. Extra-curricular ac- tivities took a lot of our time, and we soon found that we had very few hours which we could call our own. We were expected to set a good example for the other classes and to exemplify studious and dignified attitudes at all times and in any situations. We often found this task to be quite difficult, and we had many trying moments. Our class advisers-Mrs. Wright and Mr. Bestwick-along with Mrs. Hollenbeck-the other senior homeroom teacher-were very pa- tient with us and suffered through to the very last. The year held many surprises for us, both pleasant and unpleasant. Our parties, get-to- gethers, and other good times were events we will long remember. The discouragements and disappointments taught us many lessons which will be valuable to us in the future. The hours flew . . . mid-year exams came all too quickly. One of our big events was the class play in March. Will we ever forget the fun at rehearsals, the stage-struck feelings on opening night, and the big Hlet-downu when the curtain closed at the end of the final perform- ance? Spring brought showers, and showers of activities for us. Our heads were whirling by the time our final exams rolled around. Many of us were planning for college, others were ready for jobs and careers, all were preparing for a new life and new experiences. The hands of the clock moved toward the magic hour all too soon, and on May 29 sixty-five seniors said their last farewells to the alma mater and to the teachers who guided them for so long. This was a sad moment for us . . . and yet it was hopeful. We are proud of our record. We have contributed to our school in sports, in music, and in leadership, we have claimed honors both academically and in community, county, and state functions. We acknowledge our failures, but we believe these have taught us to try harder, to understand others, and to live better lives. Father Time has been kind to us. The years we spent here are now memories which we take with us as we go forward . . . forward as the hands of the clock . . . 52 Will SENIOR.CLASS GEORGE ALLEN CHAPMAN Chapman Agriculture F. F.
