Each club, sport, and activity has been a main event in our amateur production “Under the Big Top. Characterized by fun, activity, friendship, and work, re' peated rehearsals have given us training that will stand us steadfast and guide us as we face the joys, sorrows, and prob' lems of the professional world into which we are about to step.

The Nazareth Area Joint School Board came into existence on the first Monday in July 1950 after an agreement had been approved and signed by the representatives from Bushkill Township, Lower Nazareth Township, Stockcrtown Borough, Tatamy Borough, and Upper Nazareth Township on June 30, 1950. The Joint Board consists of 32 members, 7 from Nazareth and 5 from each of the other districts. The board meets regularly once a year on the last Wednesday in April. Its duty is the approval of budgets, the selection of new sites, and the erection of buildings. In all other affairs a Joint Committee holds legislative power. This Committee of 12 men, meeting regularly on the second Monday of every month, includes 7 representatives from Nazareth and I representative from each of the other areas. According to the terms of the agreement, the secre- tary and the treasurer of the Nazareth Borough Board act as secretary and treasurer to the Joint Board and Committee for the first year. In succeed- ing years the board may elect all their own officers, with the one limit that the treasurer must be the treasurer of one of the district boards.

Frederic Knccht English Blue and White ENTERING THE BIG TOP Bustle, excitement, roaring lions, growling bears, screech- ing monkeys, all against a musical background, announce the arrival of the circus. The two ringmasters have their hands full regulating daily rehearsals and performances and keep- ing routines smooth. Their many assistants, the trainers, carry through the daily schedules, often working overtime on new tricks for the animals. Without the animals themselves, there could be no circus. Out of the three classes, the first group includes those who are getting ready to give their final performance. The Senior Lions are in the final stage of training before putting on their last show. During this period, rough spots are smoothed out. and the amateurs are ready to ascend to a still greater Big Top in the experiences ahead. Those in the second stage arc the Junior Bears, who are working hard to get their junior tricks down pat before ad- vancing to the next class. They arc privileged in that their circus life is not yet at an end. Their trainers are preparing them to be performers in their numerous fields so that the smoothing down process will be less difficult when they move on to the stage of the world. The beginners. Sophomore Monkeys, are having a good taste of circus life with all its thrills and spills. The nine previous years have given them a good idea of how much hard work and fun goes into practicing and training. The two years ahead of them will teach them needed skills. Growls and protests escape now and then from animals and trainers alike, but arc soon forgotten in the every day laughs that accompany their striving to get ahead. When all is over, they agree that every tiny bit of work was neces- sary in preparation for the future, ‘‘The Greatest Show on Earth.” CONSULT OUR CLASSIFIED ADS C.

Our first attempts at circus routine were undeniably confused as we scram- bled from room to room in search of the right cages. With the coming of Octo- ber all of us stiff, self-conscious monkeys attended our first show, the Sophomore Dance. Early in December our entire troupe was saddened by the untimely death of our beloved ring master, Mr. Feller. Within a short time Mr. Graver joined us, not to replace Mr. Feller, but to win his own spot in our circus tent. The “little tent” echoed with merriment as we monkeys joined our superior animal friends at our Christmas Dance, Valentine Dance, and Square Dance—all Student Council attractions. Then came June and soon we left the Big Tent for the last time as lowly Sophomore Monkeys. When we returned to the Big Tent on September 6, 1949, we had a lot more fur on our heads, for all of a sudden we had grown into sure-footed bears. All we bears were anxious to be stamped when early in October our brands (class rings) came. During the year our Student Council invited all of us animals to attend their Christmas Dance, Sweetheart Dance, St. Patty’s Dance, and Square Dance. At last the big night arrived when we bears attended our main event, the Junior Prom, which we called “Neptune's Ball.” Forever and ever May 12 will bring memories of green crepe paper, balloons, and sea-fish plus soft lights and sweet music. The weeks whizzed by and we soon jostled out of the tent, leaving our labels of Junior Bears behind us. Reentering the Big Tent on September 5, 1950, we enjoyed the thrill of be- ing Senior Lions. Kings of the Den—with the title came a lot of work but also a lot of fun. Despite the rehearsals, which were truly a three-ring show, on November 9 and 10, we lions succcsfully presented our first feature, our play, “One Foot in Heaven.” On November 28, our football team completed an undefeated season as they beat Wilson, 20-7. That evening at the troupe Turkey Day Dance, we lions cele- brated our victories, but inwardly mourned because it was our last inside view of the football season, which we cherish almost religiously. Thus far we have gathered in the “little tent” for three dance features: the Get Acquainted Dance, Christmas Dance, and Snowball Dance. Now as this Comet goes to press, we lions arc looking forward to the Junior Prom, at which we will be Guests of Honor. Eagerly, we are planning our class Festival and our trip to New York City late in the spring. Soon after that we will march into our scats at commencement. Two hours later we will march out leaving our lion skins behind and donning the suits of young adults. Then, suddenly reluctant, we will leave the Big Tent for the last time, carrying all our memories with us. Years later as we live on the world's stage, we will recall all these memories and realize that our three years under the Big Top were really the “Circus” years of our lives.

Before too long we will be having our pictures taken, an event which brings us very close to that special title which will be ours in September. 37 AND First Rojo: Patricia Ccrronc, June Brodt, Jean Bmz, Shirley Baltz, Claire An- drews, Rose Cameline, Dolores Bow- ers, Joan Bond, Marian Breinig.

On March 10, he participated in the State Finals held at Johns- town. Although pinned in the semi-finals by Good front Phillipsburg, New Jersey, Dean tied for third place in the State Finals. REGIONAL WRESTLING MATCH Semi-final: Rissniiller pinned IS. Herman of Williamsport in 3:07 minutes. Finals: Rissniiller won over Mihal of Kingston by a score of 14-9. STATE FINALS Semi-final: Good (State champion) from Phillipsburg, New Jersey, pinned Rissniiller in third period. Regional Champ Rissniiller Because there are over 200 of us, we, the Sophomore Monkeys, have the dis- tinction of being the largest group ever to come under the Big Top at N. H. S. Our Halloween Dance on October 26 has been our only feature event, but we have joined the rest of the troupe at various side shows and at the Student Council dance attractions. it THE THREE RINGS Now we come to the most thrilling part of our circus, the Three Rings, comprising the public per- formances, sports events, and clubs. In the first ring, Neptune’s Ball, our prom, was widely acclaimed by the circus troupe itself, while the senior play, the Music Festival, and the Band Concert were high lights enjoyed by the spectators. At the annual Arts Exhibit our circus artists dis- played their talents. This year, for the first time in fifteen years, our football team came through with an undefeated sea- son. During the rest of the year our other athletics shared the limelight. The extracurricular activities of the third ring range in interest from chess to swimming. Aided by music, soft lights, gay decorations, and refreshments, the Student Council sponsored several Friday and Saturday night dances which the Blue and White advertised and the Comet recollects in this scrap- book of memories. The Three Rings offered opportunities for de- veloping skills, perfecting abilities, and learning the value of cooperation. The sportsmanship we’ve learned through these daily performances has help- ed to mold and enrich our personalities so that we will be worthy participants in future performances.

Student Council, the student governing body, consists of a boy and girl representative from each homeroom. Under the supervision of Mr. Paul Colliding and Mr. James Roth, the Council arranged six student dances dur- ing the year. To raise revenue for these activ- ities, refreshments were sold at the home foot- ball and basketball games. Through the Council, problems which concern the stu- dents are adjusted.

This Big Top program carries a full-scale account of the circus activities un- der the Big Tent for 1950- 1951. As the entire staff chose the circus theme early in the year, every division of the Comet depicts a phase of circus life from the main three-ring acts to the side shows. As soon as the circus grounds opened in Sep- tember, production began. While the Layout Stall planned the pictures to be taken, the editorial staff wrote articles which kept t h c typists constantly at work. The financing of our book was given to the Business Staff who solicit- ed advertisements a n d made sure, by encouraging the sale of Comets and patrons, that our book would be a financial suc- cess. The artists have illus- trated o u r main acts. Every senior shared in making these ever-chang- ing circus scenes a remem- brance to cherish. 16 GET YOUR SOUVENIR! The 1950 Comet has been the only one of our yearbooks to win a first rating in schools of its class (301 to 600 students) by the Columbia Press As- sociation last October. Two of this year’s editors —Jean Scutt and Johanna Toth — accompanied Miss Sloat to the Columbia Press Conference in New York City on October 13 and 14. The delegates brought back many help- ful ideas and suggestions that should make the story of our Big T op more com- plete for our audience. On November 10 and 11. two members from the business staff — Ann Deutsch and Jean Weiss— and two from the editorial staff — Jane Walters and farjorie Phi 1 lips—attend- ed the Pennsylvania Schol- astic Press Association Con- i' erence in Allentown. This is another first, since Nazareth High has never before been represented at the annual Pennsylvania State Press Convention.

As the class of '51 returned to the Big Top in September, the Staff of the Blue and White Standard began to prepare the publicity that would help lead the show to success. Echoes of “See Mr. Graver”, Run this up to the typists”, “Count that article again”, and “Finish up those headlines” rang in the air as the co-editors and the associate editors made ihe assignments, planned the pages, and headlined the arti- cles, while the editorial staff completed writing the articles and assisted the editors in counting and proof reading the material. Soon another monthly issue of the Blue and White, “hot off the press,” relating events of the past, commending star performers, and announc- ing the next feature attractions to be held under the Big Top, was in the hands ol the students of Nazareth High School. On November 10, Maybcllc Hahn. Mary Lee Lauffer, Mari- lyn Hooper, and Marion Ram- pulla, accompanied by Mr. J.

The play tells the trials of a new, broadminded, unprej- udiced minister and his family who moved to an old dilapidated parsonage in Lakctown, Iowa. Reverend and Mrs. Spence, with their children, Hartzcl! and Eileen, established themselves in the community with the help of Dr. Romcr, their friend through thick and thin. Louise, Maria, Molly, and Ronny finally convinced Reverend Spence that dancing and movies were all right. Georgie, the brat of the play, added a touch of humor. The animal trainer for this spectacular exhibition was Mr. Franklyn E. Kostcn- bader with his assistants, Barbara Cump and Mary Lee Lauffcr, the prompters. In charge of the ground crew for properties, Mr. Ronald Roth kept Lorna Thompson, Richard Dupsick, and Duane Fchr working up to the last minute on odds and ends for the production. Miss Jean Clutc directed another ground crew in staging and kept the stagecraft club at work even during rehearsals. T he Business stair, directed by Hilda Wukovitz, worked to make the play a financial success. Mrs. Ralph Metz and Mrs. Thomas Kolessar, with their staff, were dress-makers to the clowns.

Behind the scenes at the Band Concert, Senior Play, Music Festival, Fashion Show, and Little Theater Pro- ductions members of this active organi- zation work diligently to make each production a success. Not only for school organizations but also for outside organizations that use the auditorium, the club is on hand to set the stage. 1. The construction group assembles the interior setting, putting in windows and French doors. 2. The lighting committee makes sure overhead lights, spotlights, and footlights are in working condition. 3. The property committee takes care of all inci- dentals including arranging the furniture. Under the direction of Miss Jean Clute, this useful club is divided into three committees: the lighting commit- tee which takes care of the spot and foot lights; the stage property committee which plans furniture and interior dec- orations; and the construction commit- tee which builds and paints the sets. 52 LITTLE THEATRE PRESENTS SIDE SHOWS 2.

LAST BIG On the evening or May 12, 1950, the Big Top was gaily adorned with brightly colored fish and shiny star dust—all under a canopy of yellow and green streamers—for this spectacular fete of the year, Neptune’s Ball, the annual Junior-Senior Prom. As gracefully as trapeze artists, long-gowned gals and slcek-coated chaps, danced to the strains of the soft music of the Nomad’s Orchestra on this gala night. Between acts, sophomore pages acted as ven- dors, serving refreshments to the revelers. A feature attraction of the performance was the crowning of nine-year-old Kay Brong as queen of the ball. Arriving at the Big Top Drifting and Dreaming 58 I SHOW OF 1950 Time out for refreshments Tripping to the light fantastic r� 9 CIRCUS TALENT Ceramic lamps and metal tooled pictures dis- played at the exhibit. Student artists work on still life pictures. The Annual Art Exhibit, held on May 19, 1950, is one of the promi- nent events of the school year and is always well attended by large and appreciative groups of parents and friends who have a keen interest in the art activity of the school. As part of the exhibit students demonstrate their work by painting portraits in oils or pastels, drawing from still life, preparing illustrations, working in clay, scratch sgraffito de- signs on Pennsylvania Dutch plates, and tool metal for decorative placques. The art work done by senior high school students includes all phases of the fine arts and many crafts. Other phases of the art course consist of sketching from student models and the painting of portraits of student members of the art classes. In land- scape painting and story illustration, the student creates his own inter- pretation of the composition, stress- ing the creative imagination. In de- sign the work varies from the modern composition in angle to the flowered print for dress material to that suit- able for cretonne. Also fashion de- sign for the high school student is studied. Visitors examine lamps and Pennsylvania Dutch ceramics work. 60 ON DISPLAY Visitors admire senior play posters. In the crafts, students are primarily interest- ed in ceramics, pottery, and ceramic sculpture along with metal sculpture. Such articles as lamp bases, sculptured animals, figurines, and a variety ol small dishes arc made. Since Naza- reth has a Pennsylvania Dutch background, the early Pennsylvania Dutch red ware is studied and reproduced. This includes pieces decorated in slij) painting and sgraffito. As a service to the senior class, posters are made and placed in the various stores in Naza- reth and the surrounding area to advertise the senior play. Each year art students make and enter posters in the Poppy contest sponsored by the American Legion and the Health Poster contest sponsored by the Northampton County Medical Society. Industrial Arts The Industrial Arts covers a course in the operation of common woodworking machines. The students are taught to work with and use the machine shop tools. While the students are learning, they make book cases, coffee tables, chests of drawers, ping-pong tables or any piece ol furniture they desire. Students demonstrate their work. Young visitors examine a nest of coffee tables. 61 Students drill a hole in a book case. COSTUMES ON PARADE Carole Ha Opel, Shirley Rinkcr. Joanne RuloiT.

Mr. Smith, besides keeping the first floor clean during circus season, mows the grass for the entire grounds in sum- mer and clears the sidewalks in winter. Mr. Eckert, in order to keep our cages attractive, cleans the second floor after the last show is over for the day. While the circus is out for the sum- mer, all three engineers prepare for the next season. Mr. Eckert feeds the furnace. 63 Mr. Rice repairs a door lock. SYNCOPATING T i E M P O The Nazareth Area Joint High School Band, under the direction of Mr. Augustine C. Wcinhofer, partici- pated in seven parades this year.

The final score of Nazareth 52, Lehighton f , was a result of touchdowns made by Noll, Dzurak, Rissmiller, and Marakovits supple- mented by extra points kicked by Mcngcl. Before an eager crowd of spectators the Blue Eagles played their first L N I A A game against Coplay. Marakovits opened the scoring by making a touchdown on a 17 yard run in the second period. As a result of a spectacular 17 yard pass by Nolf to Dzurak, another touchdown was achieved. In the third period Coplay scored again, tying the game 15 all. In the fourth period the game was put on ice by Marakovits who scored three more touchdowns. 'Flic final score was Nazareth 32, Coplay 13. One of the toughest games for the Blue Eagles ended in a scoreless deadlock for both teams. Though the Pen Argyl men tried many times to break through our lines, Nagle’s punting and Dzurak’s tackling res- cued us from the perils of defeat. 'Neath threatening skies the Eagles met a threatening team—Bangor’s! The two un- 71 20-7 —TURKEY defeated teams clashed but, when the final whistle blew, Nazareth reigned victorious with :� final score of 21 to 7. The Nazareth High Blue Eagles buried the East Stroudsburg team by the top score of our entire undefeated season—17 to 0. Those making touchdowns were Polzcr, Dzurak, Marakovits and Doncllo. Mcngel kicked the five extra points. Thanksgiving morning found enthusiastic football fans crowding into Cottingham Stadium for the annual Nazareth-Wilson game. Although the first half was disappoint- ing to the Nazareth fans because of Wilson’s touchdown, their faith in the Blue Eagles was restored when Marakovits successfully went through the lines for Nazareth’s first touchdown, resulting in a tied score of 7-7. The second half, in comparison, was easy going for the Eagles. Dzurak and Doncllo made touchdowns which resulted in a final score of 20-7. I.cRoy Nagle and John Polzcr, co-captains of the game, displayed outstand- ing punting and tackling. The end of the game saw joyful Nazareth fans celebrating not only the victory over Wilson but also the fact that the team won the league champion- ship. Breaking away from a tackier. 72 The Eagles found the non-league games, with the exception of that with Nesquchon- ing, comparatively smooth sailing. In the Nazareth-Nesquehoning g a m c the Blue Eagles received the opening kick off. On the first play from scrimmage speedy Marakovits carried the ball 71 yards for the only score of the game. Game statistics indicated that Nes- quehoning held the advantage but the mar- velous defensive play of the Blue Eagles, holding Ncsquchoning four times within the ten yard lines, kept the strong Ncsquchoning boys from scoring. When the Eagles competed against White- hall a pitchout from the quarter back with Dzurak scoring the touchdown resulted in a final score of 6 to 0. T hough the Blue Eaglcs’s last non-league game, Emmaus, was on a damp, rainy fall day, their spirits weren’t dampened as they claim- ed another victory. The final score was 13 to 0 over Emmaus. Johnny Polzcr was named honorary cap- tain of the football season. Students of Nazareth High will long re- member with pride the triumphant season of 1950. In addition to winning the Lehigh- Northampton League Championship and be- ing undefeated, the Blue Eagles also had the best defensive record in the valley for this past season.

The basketball season started off suc- cessfully when the Blue Eagles dribbled to a 37-28 victory over Emmaus on Nazareth's gym floor. Following this our boys lost several games bin came back with sensa- tional victories over Pen Argyl, Bangor, and Wilson in the first half of the season. During the second half, although suffering several defeats, they again nipped Pen Argyl and Bangor. The season came to a disappointing climax when Wilson beat us in our last game. Considering the fact that only one letterman was available at the beginning of the season, the team made a remarkable showing against much more experienced teams. Playing a total of fifl quarters, John Polzcr was the season’s highest scorer with a total of 232 points. In 67 quarters Cap- tain David Reimer had only 47 fouls called against him. Trying to prevent him from making a goal, a Trojan jumps to block a pass of a Blue Eagle player. 75 ■■■ OUR STRONG M EX Wrestling Squad First Row—William Dancy. John Alich, John Wilson, Allan Frantz.

With the sound of the buzzer at 3:46 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, all sports-loving girls join enthusiastically in the excitement and fun of sports competition. In the fall the hockey field is the scene of activity; during the winter months basketball and volleyball are in the limelight: in the spring baseball has the spotlight. These seasonal activities provide fun and frolic as well as develop skill and sportsmanship. Fificld takes a foul shot. Enthusiasm runs high during the basketball season, the favorite on the girls’ sport calendar. The spirit was even greater this year, as the girls battled not only for the tournament crown but also for the opportunity to accept the challenge of Wilson's championship team. In the finals the Junior Spinning Tops nosed out the Senior Pookahs, 30-27, in a closely contested battle and then traveled to Wil- son where they were defeated, 15-11. With the first signs of spring the baseball dia- mond becomes alive as the tournament gets under way. si Baseball candidates sign up. SIDE SHOWS Our entire circus life has revolved around our everyday curriculum. Despite all our complaining we’ve enjoyed our experiences and will leave here carrying only happy memories with us. Every single side show has its use in our future. To those who will go on to college, our preparations here are merely the rudiments. To those who will take their place in the commercial field, the instruc- tion of our trainers will prove invaluable in future positions. To those who will advance into the many other varied fields of life, the experience and knowl- edge gained in our circus will be added to and im- proved. Through constant rehearsal, we have not only acquired useful knowledge but have also learned, through working with our trainers and fellow actors, the cooperation needed to help us become successes in the future. By contributing our own part to each separate side show, we have enriched and broadened our backgrounds and are more able to accept the obliga- tions with which we will be faced in the future. We have also learned, we hope, to assume the responsi- bilities of leadership which we will need for the future. CONSULT OUR CLASSIFIED ADS EXPERIMENTS -|- CALCULATIONS By text, student reports, and laboratory ex- periments, chemistry students develop an understanding of the part chemistry plays in everyone’s daily life. By studying the qualities and defects of numerous products, consumer science students learn to become better buyers. Students learn how to use the photo meter. Chemistry students distill an acid and deter- mine its strength. In order to understand biology more thor- oughly, students dissect frogs and earthworms and make microscopic observations of plants and animals. Joanne Roberts and Richard Tashner dissect a frog. 81 STRANGE REACTIONS In three years of math the students learn to calculate dist- ances and massive equations and to delve into all the other mysteries of t h e numerical world. Frank Hadl demonstrates an identity in T rig, class. Our library with its ap- proximate three thousand books, seventy magazines, and four newspapers pro- vides the spot and the necessary materials for en- joyment and relaxation.

American history students and teacher examine student-made colonial miniatures. By open discussions and student reports, Problems of Democracy classes aim to give the students a more thorough understanding of our democracy and to develop group leadership. In order to learn about the past, the sopho- more world history students study peoples and events of ancient times. Middle: Problems of Democracy stu dents participate in an open dis- cussion. 86 Left: World history students locate his- torical points of interest on the map. W E A C QU I R E KNOWLEDGE Since English includes oral and written communi- cation as well as literature, it is an essential tool in everyday life. In the library unit of the English course students learn how and where to locate information quickly and how to use the Read- ers’ Guide to Periodical Literature. Thru recordings— Mac- beth. Hamlet, Poe’s The Cash of Amontillado, and poetry selections — litera- ture becomes more mean- ingful. Students listen to Maurice Evans’ recordings of Hamlet. Using the card catalogue makes reference work easy. Not only do book re- ports give the student op- portunity to travel and live vicariously but also to evaluate and discuss the merits of present-day books. 87 Rebecca Miller gives an oral book report. IN FOREIGN TENTS In the second year German class students acquire a reading knowledge of German. As Guidance Counselor, Mr. Paul Goulding’s work has many phases.

Nazareth, Pennsylvania YOUNG'S PRINTING PRESS High Street Nazarcth, PennsyI vania PULLING UP THE STAKES As the circus grounds become alive with a flurry of excitement and the brass band strikes up the grad- uation march, we, the class of 1951, begin to pull up the stakes of our tent and prepare for graduation, our last, most memorable performance “Under the Big Top.” But in the midst of all the excitement, we pause to look back over the entire production and realize that it has served as an amateur performance prepar- ing us for the bigger shows of life that arc ahead. We realize that without the support of our stock holders—patrons and advertisers—we would not have been able to present so vivid a picture of our per- formance for our audience, and we are grateful for their support. With the experience of this performance, we take a final bow and parade out of the tent and into the challenging world awaiting us. PATRONIZE OUR ADVERTISERS A vie wm WEB = W8£ • 'yj ftps?
