No organization can, without constant and wise,foresight, operate at peak efficiency. ln the same way, no school can achieve its maximum progress without a capable Board of Directors. It is this group of people, the Northwestern School Board, which ' the Class of 1959 wishes to thank for making Northwestern more than merely a school, but an institution which we shall always remember with pride. - ' Mrs. RAPP graduated from Kutztown State Normal School in the Class of 1911. She has taught for a total of nearly forty-four years. She can well remember the old one and two- room schools, at which she once taught. Mis. Rapp's favorite subjects, as a student, were botany and mathematics. As a teacher, she prefers English, spelling, and arithmetic. Mr. HENRY is a graduate of Kutztown State Teachers' College, and he also received a B.S. in Agronomy at Penn State University. He has taught for a total of thirty-three years. Mr. Henry had formerly taught in the Lynn Town- ship rural schools, and finished his teaching at our Northwestem High School. Mrs. KERSHNER is a graduate of Nesque- honing High School and Beckley College, Harrisburg, and attended Bloomsburg State Teachers' College. Mrs. Kershner has formerly taught bookkeeping and typing in Slatington High, and taught, for a period of three years in our high school, bookkeeping, typing, and shorthand. She also served as Service ' Manager for Sears, Roebuck and Cqmpany for 2. , period of six years. We, on our part, wish sincerely to say to Mrs. Alma Kershner, Mrs. Florence Rapp, Mr. Oscar Henry. you, our retiring teachers, that you have done a wonderful job. May you always look back 12 fondly on your teaching career, as the happiest years of your life. , ,,,, ,.,..,.....w...,..M. f,1.

This story relates the problems that a young married couple encounters when their deaf relatives pay them a visit. An escaped criminal provides the suspense. The entire cast and those behind the scenes all con- tributed to make this a success which will long be remembered. And the cuckoo must have his fling Who are you? Where 's Mr. Savage? O.K.! Just as long as we understand each other SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Harold Weaver, Senior Class president, plans the agenda for the next class meeting with the help of John Werley, vice-president. Judy Christman, our very capable secretary, records the minutes in her beautiful handwriting. Ronald Bittner, class treasurer, reports how much is in the treasury and how many expenses the class can expect to have. The class officers provided the leadership necessary to make our junior minstrel, class play, and junior prom a success. However, they could not have done as good a job without the patient guidance of our class advisors, Mr. Harold Taylor, Miss Barbara Kerchner, and Mr. Richard Blose. For the class trip on May 29, the Seniors decided to go to New York City to tour the United Nations Building, visit Chinatown, and view the play, Music Man. The last activity spon- sorecl by the class was the day-long trip to a Pocono summer resort.

The fifty seniors in the graduating class listened attentively to the words of Dr. G. Wayne Glick, Associate Professor of Religion at Franklin and Marshall College, who spoke on the topic, The Aims of Educa.tion. He emphasized that If a person rises too high, there are ways to lower him, and if he sinks too low, it is to be hoped that there will be ways to raise him. The student orators were Lawrence Higgins and Joyce Rabert who spoke on Education for the Gifted and Education forthe Average, respectively. Larry stressed the worth of the gifted, while Joyce emphasized the importance of the ordinary individual. Carol Hand- werk sang Life Up Your Hearts. Allen T. Fink, President of the Board of Education, presented the diplomas. Mr. Frank A. Leidich, Superintendent of Lehigh County Schools, who offered remarks and presented several awards, stated that two Northwestern students had placed in the top twelve for the State Scholarship test.

You know who the one is, but guess the other! The class of '60 organized in their sophomore year. The results of the election of officers were as follows: Bonnie Jacobs, President, James Werley, Vice-President, Elaine Kistler, Secretaryg and Barbara Kistler, Treasurer. They all did such a good job they were re-elected for the junior year. Their first dance was a great success, maybe because of the big buildup they gave it. They had record dances in the sophomore year, all with big tumouts. The money just kept on pouring in Csound familiar? It's from The All American Boy J. Another big event was the Senior Fare- well, The Aloha Ball. This year the juniors had something really different for Northwestern, a Halloween Social. It started off with a masquerade. Man, what an assortment of costumes! For instance, take that crazy gorilla that had everyone puzzled. Wonder who it was? Perhaps Bonnie would know. And wasn't Elvis handsome! Bet nobody could guess it was Elaine. Another thing the juniors sponsored this year was the movie, Battle Cry. That Tab Hunter's really the greatest! And to top off the evening, they had a record dance with all the latest platters. The juniors in the F.F.A. and F.H.A. who went to the Farm Show in Harrisburg say they had a very enjoyable trip. The news is out about who made it for the court of the Junior Prom. The lucky girls are Shirley Brandis, Mary Ann Fink, Diane Fister, Joyce Frey, Pat Guignet, Bonnie Jacobs, Barbara Kistler, Elaine Kistler, and Jean Wehr. The Gym was adorned in a Japanese decor. Cherry blossoms, Japanese lanterns, and a mural were the main trimmings. ree Q' J fl?

Seventh and Eighth Grade Basketball This year was the first year of organized junior high school basketball. Under the direction of Mr. Stoudt, Mr. Dilliard, and Mr. Smith, this organization provides a worthwhile outlet for boys in seventh, eighth, and ninth grades who otherwise would not have any oppor- tunity to engage in competitive basketball. The jun- ior high basketball program is actually a stepping stone to participate in junior varsity and varsity basket ball. In addition to being beneficial to the individual, the junior high athletic program is also designed to stimulate school spirit at the junior high age level. Baseball The Varsity Baseball team, coached by Mr. Dilli- ard and Mr. Stoudt, showed great improvement. With our star pitchers, Ron Bittner and Barry Friebolin and our sluggers we have a good record to set up. So let's give the boys a cheer for the fine year of base- ball. ROW 1: Mr. G.
