We, the class of 1942, have adopted as the theme of this humble book, the environment of a ship on which we have learned, to navigate ourselves through a hazardous sea of life. Our maiden voyage began in grade one and, after much toil and study, has been completed. We feel certain that the past twelve years have been justly and wisely spent. Many were the obstacles and dangers on this journey of apprenticeship aboard the good S.S. Olean, but even in view of all which has been said, we are now prepared for the great and final voyage, life itself. 5 .l QW' my lg'-I-'ix Q1 Yfxasxix-ls ,Nl v M' 1 wt.-1, DEDICATION . . . We, the class of 1942, dedicate this log, the 1942 Olean, of our voyages through all our school years from first grade to the present time, to all of our teachers both past and present. To those gallant leaders and skillful guides of our school voyage, and for our future voyage on the sea of life, we wish to show our unbounded appreciation for their guidance and lofty aspirations. 4 CHIEF S OF OPERATION First row. left to right: Wilson S.

TROUT 5 THE CHARTER THE PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION The Purpose of Public Education in Oley Township shall be: ill To develop individuals to live successfully in a democracy. Successful living means that: Cal they must be able to recognize the problems in their own and the social life: tbl they must be able to solve these problems success- fully: and CCD they must will to take the necessary steps to achieve the solution. 121 To acquaint the child with present-day problems, with a knowledge of the achievement and methods of solution developed by man in the past, and with the needs, possibilities, and probable solutions of the future. 133 To develop the whole child - physically, mentally, emotionally, morally, and socially. To accomplish this we balance his education with vocational and cultural experiences until we think he has a stable personality, good habits of character, and is fitted to become a self-sustaining, cooperative, and contributing citizen of his community and country. C43 To develop methods to achieve these objectives which will develop in the child in the largest measure: Kal the ideals of worthy individual and social purposes, fbi powers of self-direction, self-appraisal, and self-control, and CCD the desire and ability to work cooperatively with others in the solution of social problems. 6 CAPTAINS ,ff 4 A 'A 4 ff - 24, 4 K X N x. ,wr ..1.T',11 V' -4'-5 LQI7' X 1 ll A , 1, t Q ' wj .

B., M.A. Muhlenberg College Columbia University TO THE CLASS OF 1942: Another milestone in the process of your education has been attained. During the past twelve years through depressions, emergencies, and a gigantic world struggle you have steadily maintained a splendid spirit so that today success - - - graduation - - - is yours. You have constantly exemplified the letter and the spirit of your motto, Sail On . The Class of 1942 was the first class to complete the twelve grades since the consolidation of Oley Township. I congratulate you and may success be yours in your chosen vocation. I am happy to take this opportunity to direct a brief message to you. Let us reflect that all the World's problems are not to be solved now, but that there is going to be a man's and a woman's work to be done many years hence. If the present requirements of national defense permit your continuing to prepare yourself, you can be fully justified in so doing, both for your own self-development and for your country's future needs. My advice to you is this: Resist the temptation to mark time merely because the present is a time of emergency and the future is a question mark. Our democracy will continue to have problems that will call for the best efforts of all its citizens. Prepare yourself for your part and give serious thought to the needs and ideas of your fellowmen, your community, and your country. To be able to do this is one of the blessings of democracy. It, however, requires training ourselves in self-discipline, in attitudes of tolerance, and in habits of cooperation. This is the American ideal. May it give you courage, purpose, and hope to go forth and to assume your rightful position in the ranks of American citizenship. 8 EDNA D.

Senior Chorus 3, 4. 28 LOG OF THE CLASS OF 1942 To train the crew for our ship, a new twenty-four unit grade and high school building was opened for the first time in the fall of 1930. This replaced thirteen schools, twelve of which were rural. For the first time in the history of our schools we had an auditorium and gymnasium. The exterior of the two story building was built of colonial brick. It was planned in the form of a huge in- verted letter U of two stories with classrooms on the sides and rear. This was to be the new and efficient dry dock for the building of the ship for the class of 1942. LAYING THE KEEL WV, tiwfflffflffis 1t,.fm44,.fS.b pf ' 5sv f. 1-53 ttf tsl . .I ' whiff!!

Work progresses smoothly for the first year because all labored willingly and eagerly. The class-ship was quickly assembled and the crew was trained by the master technicians. The crew quickly became more proficient, and to test their knowledge and proficiency they were asked to perform tasks. They rendered a program consisting of a Tom-Thumb Wedding and a band com- posed of members of the primary grades. The crew came through with flying colors. For two more years, building on the keel progressed without a break, and then the class-ship and crew were again put to a test in another program. The result was an excellent rendition. Thus advancement to the second stage of construction was in order. FORMING THE FRAME OR HULL More advanced work and training was now appearing on the horizon. The frame was put into place upon the firm foundation already established by the keel and the advancement tested and found to be sound when, under the direc- tion of the technical advisers, the class-ship and crew performed successfully in a program entitled Vision of Sir Launfal. Satisfied that they were on the way of building a sound ship, the crew and teachers plunged into the work with new vigor. During the second year of work on the hull, many new and hitherto unknown problems were met. After much discussion and planning, they were solved and each piece of material began to fit smoothly into place. At times trouble would loom on the horizons, but by skillful planning much of it was avoided. Finally one of the most important steps in the building of a class ship arrived. The keel was well built and sound, the frame and hull were slowly and surely being fixed into their proper places, and the crew had just about completed its basic training. Time for the first real-test had arrived. The crew and class-ship were asked to be the main performers in one of the best plays ever given by an intermediate group. The play was entitled The Pied Piper of Hamlin, and under the directorship of chief adviser, Mr. Thomas ,di if Knecht and his co-advisers, it turned out to be the most 'fa -5 successful accomplishment yet attained by this group of children. :If . f: FITTING THE DECK Now a great change was undergone in the lives of the crew members and in their training. They were now made to feel their responsibility more and also their importance in the molding of a successful future for their class-ship. New fields of material were opened to them for the use in building a strong and sturdy deck whose solid lla' 1 'ak' W'vlL:'Tii l: ' - v , . 1 . 1 l ll' . 'I .JZ 29 planks would withstand any storm. Many began to select a capacity in which they could most efficiently serve their ri ship and fellow members. 5- , Some turned to athletics for this, and made older and G ,Qi more complete class-ships question their own accomplish- ments. Others turned to music and literary fields to begin - their careers. sf1'!-.- as f . . . . . . pls. 1 ,' .t The first year 1n 1un1or high school was spent in the g if orientation of the crew. As the second year dawned, the 5 A crew became accustomed to its new advisers and new fields. They accomplished some very admirable tasks. Among these were conquests in athletic contests and in literary fields. Many boys and girls represented their school at the Kutztown Field Day. At this time the band was organized which today has ten members of our class. The orchestra, which was already in existence for thirteen years, claimed three members of our class. Today nine are starting their musical careers in this organization. Many represented their school in state and county musical contests. Quite a few were sent to represent the school in other musical organizations. The eighth grade seemed to be one of the hardest tests for the class-ship and crew members. Here began some of the more advancd work. New and different problems were to be coped with in ancient history and general science. The crew members had to learn to find things for themselves. Ninth grade marked the really great change in the construction of the class-ship. Vocational subjects began to be introduced and many new planks were put into place to strengthen the deck of the ship. Algebra entered the curriculum, much to the disgust and dismay of the crew, but this plank was also quickly shaped and fitted into its place as material for the building of a suc- cessful class-ship. This year also marked an extensive change in the athletic activities of the class, for many of the more gifted boys tried for the varsity squads in the various sports. Baseball was introduced as an intramural sport and the class-ship of '42 showed the result of expert building by giving the more complete and exper- ienced ships and crews a very tough race. Thus the deck was brought to a finish and each plank was firmly fastened into place. The ship was nearing completion. TRIMMING AND FINISHING THE SUPER-STRUCTURE Finally the last stage in the construction of the ship was reached. The foundation or keel, hull and deck were now finished and it remained only to add the super-structure and trimming. To do this was not as hard as imagined, because due to the foresight of our teacher captains, a firm and steady foundation was already established. The basic materials for super-structures were added in the tenth year, when plane geometry and advanced vocational work was put into the training of the crew. N1 I More members participated in sports during this year. X gf , Musical education progressed as many class members 21-W' , 1 entered the band and orchestra.

By dividing the crew members into 1 two parts and by giving them a choice of what they would like to do, both academic and vocational subiects were 30 ably handled and added to the material for finishing the super-structure.

Senior boys are still interested in sports and music, but their interests are now being divided into many fields. They are beginning to realize their responsibilities in life and to plan for the future. The good ship, Scholarship, Citizenship and Comradeship will be launched at a formal ceremony on May 28. Speakers and musical organizations will participate inthe program. Of this future nathing is known. It may bring sorrows and joys, triumphs and defeats, hopes and disappointments. To some it will bring dark failures. To all it will give the same equal opportunity. Each person and classmate will be adjusted to life according to his own ability, purpose, and diligence that he showed throughout his high school life. If all of us use the preparation and ability realized in high school, we shall overcome the rough seas of life. For some, chance may play a large part in their lives. The diligent and suc- cessful realize that it is not chance but by their own ingenuity and resource- fulness that they will attain their measure of success. The seniors as they leave the harbor are determined that wherever fate decrees their lot, and on whatever oceans their ships may sail, they are ready to face the future manfully, wisefully, and hopefully. Thou, too, sail on, O Ship of State! Sail on, O Union, strong and great! Humanity with all its fears, With all its hopes of future years, Is hanging breathless on thy fate! n n . . . - 1 n Sail on, nor fear to breast the sea!

Swinburne Iones, the boy whom you love to hate and who won the embossed scroll for promptness, is an imprecation to Albert Williams. Doctor Pierson, the new principal, tries out his theory of redemption through responsi- bility on Albert. He appoints him President of the League for Young Citizens. which is sponsored by a formidable dowager, Mrs. Rathbone. After being forced to raise money for the League, Albert organizes a carnival. All the things typical of a carnival such as side shows, concessions, and entertain- ments are in full swing. He has issued a million dollars in paper money, selling at ten cents a thousand dollars to encourage reckless spending. Most popular among the concessions are the amusement devices built by Albert from the direction in a book. Until Mrs. Rathbone became involved in playing The Little Daisy to the extent of losing fifty-six thousand dollars. everything had gone well. She becomes infuriated and throws the whole school in confusion. After the carnival is over and Albert is ordered to return the money, the receipts of the entire evening have disappeared. These complications are finally straightened out with the aid of Pop, the lovable old janitor.

Five new members were added to our number this year, making a total of forty-two. They were transfers from Exeter Township and from the Iunior High Schools in Reading. The aims of our class were self-improvement programs in scholarship. fellowship and citizenship. High averages in our studies were maintained. For the first time in our high school course we were allowed to elect certain subjects such as mathematics, languages, and vocational courses. Outstanding on our basketball team this year was Harold DeTurck, who was high scorer among the varsity players. Calvin Seidel, who took part in the cross-country run at Penn State, won honors for the school. Three of our class mates were members of the debating teams. The Speak-O-Link staff consisted of eleven juniors. An essay contest, sponsored by the Township Supervisors Association, brought honors to three members, Ethel Knabb, Bettye Stitzer, and Earl Herzog. At the Pennsylvania Farm Show, Earl Hoffman and Earl Herzog won prizes for their exhibits. Some of the juniors have helped the civilian defense program by taking Red Cross First Aid Courses and by serving as airplane spotters. A few class parties were held but the annual party given in honor of the seniors by the juniors will be the big social event. It will be based on the theme-a rendezvous in arms.

Members of the class love to participate in arguments and are good prospects for future debaters. The Sophomore class is very active in sports of the school. Among the out- standing varsity basketball players are Cyril Lendacki and Carl Herzog. This year the Sophomore class journeyed to the Harrisburg Farm Show. Among the prize winners were Eleanor Baum and Iean Clouser, who entered projects in the agricultural and clothing exhibits. The Sophomore class favors roller skating parties. They have one out- standing roller skater, whose name, as you probably know, is Carl Gift. Quite a few of the members of the band and orchestra came from the Sophomore Class. Besides participating in the many activities of the school, the class has always maintained a high scholastic standing. Many are eagerly awaiting the last two years of their high school training when they can select courses to prepare for college. OFFICERS President ............. ............................ .........

Ninth grade, composed of 54 members, including new-comers from Pike, Earl, Ruscombmanor, Rockland, and Alsace Township, showed a fine school spirit in their many contributions to Oley High School in the field of athletics during the 1941-42 season. Several girls entered varsity hockey. Prominent among them were Rosa Iean Reitnouer and lane Levan. Many freshman boys entered into varsity soccer and cross-country at the beginning of the school term. William Sheetz, a cross-country runner, was sent to the state finals at Penn State. The contribution of the class to varsity basketball was William Kline. The freshmen elected a new president, William Christman, in Ianuary, to succeed Philip Evans, who moved out of the Oley School District. At a class party held in their honor in February, gifts were presented to Mr. Alfred S. Knabb and Mr. Wayne G. Wessner, class advisers, who were inducted into the United States Army.

Blanche Kershner Wayne G. Wessner Frank S. Reifi During the term of 1941 cmd 1942 eighth grade has made much progress. Pupils have tried to improve their conduct as well as their application. The class, as a whole, is small, and therefore is given a better opportunity, as far as improvement is concerned. Much time of some of the pupils is devoted to musical instruments. Approxi- mately one-third of the class plays an instrument. Harold Rothenberger plays first chair clarinet in both the band and the orchestra. The pupils are interested in sports, as well as in music. The boys out for track are Frederick Kegerise, Paul Houp, Frederick Enoch, Raymond Hafer, and Hay Reinert. These boys expect to compete at Albright. The girls received the intra-mural championship in soccer last fall. Some of the girls interested in sports are: Erma Hoch, Olive Fisher, Laura Fisher, and Fern DeTurck. During the first semester, our home-room teacher, Herbert L. Erb, resigned, and in his place Thelma V. Brunner was elected. She has accomplished a great deal since she is here. To give each student a greater sense of service and responsibility, a Service Roll was started, on which are placed all the names of the pupils. If they perform their duties faithfully, they receive a letter a week, until they have the word Victory. This chart has developed good school spirit and the pupils, who perform their duties, prove to be better school citizens. OFFICERS President ............ ............,........ ...........

In the Seventh grade this year were two sections. There were 47 pupils enrolled. The most outstanding characteristic of our grade was the fact that it contained more girls than boys. Most of the girls were especially fond of their courses in home economics and the tendencies of the boys ran to the vocational course. In our first year of high school we have a chance of joining any of the clubs. A majority of the girls joined the Home Economics Club. As for the boys, most of them joined the Leader's Club. Three of our clubs combined and we had a skating party. Every one seemed to enjoy it very much. Very few members of the seventh grade are members of the high school band, but in the future years we hope to have many more. The work in the gymnasium is especially liked by every one. The games played by the girls and boys in the health class were well administered. Two of the most outstanding pupils in scholarship are Betty Angstadt and Henry DeTurck of the A section. Every one seems to take a liking to all the courses of the different studies. The teachers hope that the students will con- tinue to do the same all through the future years.

After winning the Northern Division title, we traveled to the German-American Field in Reading to play Mohnton for the county championship. When the final whistle was blown, Oley once more was crowned the Berks Champions. This was no easy victory for every game was fought with much effort to win. The final score was Oley 5 and Mohnton 1. During the iirst half there was no score but in the second half Harold DeTurck, Whitey Clouser and Mike Gift found the mark and accounted for the winning oals. g Not since 1931 had Oley acquired a championship. On this team was Alfred Knabb, our present coach, and Earl Hater, an outstanding player. Paul Sweisford was the coach at that time. During the course of the season we had many thrilling games. George Reitnouer did a splendid job tending the goals. Seven seniors played their last soccer for the school. These will be greatly missed and hard to replace. They are as follows: W. Sterner, G. Beitnouer, W. Gift, B. Clouser, I. Lendacki, I. Evans, and W. Kegerise. Harold DeTurck was high scorer and Walter Gift was a close second. SOCCER SCHEDULE Oley Opponent Mt.

Basketball creates more enthusiasm than any other sport. This season thirty-seven boys came out for the first practice which showed a renewed interest. Not everyone could be on the team, but it really created a better team, by making the varsity members work harder to retain their positions. The boys have more height this year than they had in former years. To be a basketball player the boys must be active students, as many of their evenings are spent on the gymnasium floor, practicing for their next game. Because of their strenuous practice they have gi.ven us very interesting and exciting games throughout the season. This is shown by the games with Fleetwood and Hamburg.

The individuals must obey training rules, more than in any other sport in which they participate. Self-discipline as to body and will and cooperation with group will give to student valuable training for life. Our team has been well represented at many of the Berks County meets every year since track was first introduced into the school shortly before 1929. Track is not only running for boys but also' weight throwing, such as the shot put, discus and javelin, as well as running high jump and running broad jump. Besides the county and state meets certain teams have dual or tri- angular meets to get the boys in condition. The prospects for the season are very favorable since we have almost the entire team returning for the training season. TRACK MEETS Date Meet Place April 18-Albright ............... ..........

The hill-and-dalers, led by Calvin Seidel, won the County Confer- ence Run at Hamburg. C. Seidel, W. Sheetz, A. DeTurck, and W. Kegerise received awards. Each year the P.I.A.A holds cross-country runs to crown the champion runner and the team. First came the District No. 3 P.I.A.A. Meet held in Reading. Our team was entered and as a result Calvin Seidel and William Sheetz placed seventh and fifteenth respectively. Because of their ranking they were eligible in the State Semi-Finals at Easton. Mr. Knabb took them to Easton and they continued to show their ability by placing in the state finals. Calvin placed third and William placed seventh. In the State Finals they had very stiff competition. W. Sheetz placed thirteenth, but C. Seidel dropped from the race because of exhaustion. The team, ably coached by Mr. Knabb, gave a good showing for their first season.

This does not mean that baseball has been played in the school for 32 years, because there were some seasons when there was an insufficient number of boys inter- ested to form a team. However in recent years there was no difficulty in forming a team, as there was always an ample number of boys interested. In later years the team has had fairly successful seasons, but was never strong enough to capture the championship. Last year they had finished second in the Northern Division of Berks County. However, the hopes of the team this season are enlightened since there are eight veterans returning to the squad. These boys, together with those who played on the junior recreation during vacation, should change the tide of the team in the future. BASEBALL SCHEDULE Date Opponent Place April 14 Ontelaunee ....

Since this was the first game of the season, the girls lacked experience and cooperation. A few of the outstanding players were: Helen Hoover, Evelyn Hetrick, and lean Lehman. Even with the lack of ex- perience the Oley girls were victorious with the score of 4-1. The next game of the season was a return game with West Lawn. Both teams had improved in technique and playing skill. The final score was 3-0 in favor of Oley. The best game of the season found Oley battling the North Coventry girls. This was the hardest fought and the most exciting game. The score was tied until the last second of play when North Coventry made a goal as the whistle blew to end the game. Shillington invaded Oley with the intention of keeping a perfect record, but the Oley girls proved to be the victor. The last game of the season found Oley on its way to Shillington to end the season with a victory. The girls finished a successful season winning 4 out of 5 games. The team will be greatly weakened by the loss of seven seniors, although there are some promising candidates for next year.

Our basketball season opened with twenty-three girls reporting for the first practice November ll. Perry and Hamburg were our first two games. The Oley girls put on a good fight against Fleetwood, but were not quite strong enough. Oley showed Amity they had the fight by overtaking them on their home floor. The comparative results do not give an exact picture of how well the Oley girls played because every game was closely fought until the waning minutes of the game. The stalwarts of the team were: Iean Lehman, Evelyn Hetrick, Helen Hoover, Iean Dorn, Eleanor Baum, and Betty Aulenbach. These were aided by the splendid cooperation of Marie Christman, Fern Hess, and Ada Aulenbach. The highest scorers were Iean Lehman with 60 and Helen Hoover with 60. On the defense lean Dorn and Betty Aulenbach often out- witted their opponents. We will lose four players by graduation, although Coach Meyers finds some promising material in the freshman and sophomore classes. SCHEDULE Date Opponent SCORE Place Oley Opp. Dec. 5 Amity .......

Five who trotted on the Iunior High team last year are working for the positions which are open this year. The girls are in good shape, and are working under the good training rules. They will prove that the school is still in good standing. Iunior High track is not so big a task as that of Senior High. They do not have to train as hard but must keep in condition. They only run at the County Field Day, which is held at Kutztown. The sports in which they compete are: 50-yard dash, 220- and 440-yard relay, standing broad jump, and basketball throw.

BAND The Oley High School Band presents a practical means of cultivating interest and ability in music, for students with a certain amount of initiative. This organization tends to teach the fundamentals of music as well as give to every student a very practical experience. Under Mr. I. Earl Baker the band was organized in 1937. Later, the instructor's position was transferred to Mr. Robert Barber and finally to lVlr. Herbert Strohman, the present director. Since Oley is a member of the Forensic Music League, the band has gone to many contests and has earned a commendable name for itself as a Class C band. In the past the Oley High School Band has gained an excellent reputation of which the school can be proud. We hope they will pattem the path of the future from that of the past.

It also increases their ability of being one of a group-each of whom must give their best to produce the desired results. George Fichthorn organized and established the first one. Later conductors were Henry Brunner, Iohn Bonavilla, Ruth Gabel, I. Earl Baker, Robert Barber and Herbert Strohman, the present one. Quite a few years ago several orchestra members participated in the All Eastern Conference. Since then the orchestra has entered various contests, winning the state contest held in 1940. All these activities as contests, concerts, and playing at the annual Commencement, have provided the stimuli for the present growing interest.

The literary society of that period was continued during the early days of our high school. Twenty years ago, the Berks County Debating League was organized by the late Supt. E. M. Rapp. Oley High School has been a continuous member of this forensic activity. The question for debate this year was Resolved: That, as a permanent policy, every able-bodied male citizen should be required to have one year of PRESS CLUB military training.

In this periodical the news of the school and town are presented. spiced with features and jokes. Through the evaluations and criticisms by journalistic organizations and the public, the staff has tried to give to all a much better paper. -'i EDITORIAL STAFF Editor-in-Chief-Analene Bower Make-up Editor-Helen Hoover Features Editor-Ethel Knabb Associate Editors-Daisy Angstadt, lane Kinsey, Elsie Bieber, Bettye Stitzer, Arlene Wentzel Girls' Sports Editor-Ethel Knabb Boys' Sports Editor-King Pleacher Exchange Editor-Mary Hetrick Reporters-Marjorie Chollet, Ada Aulenbach, Thelma Ream. lean Clouser, Iune Angstadt, Christine Rohrbach, Ieanette DeTurck, Pauline Levengood, Carl Herzog, Edmund Bixler, Betty Angstadt Photographer-Alvin deTurck BUSINESS STAFF Business Manager-Eugene Keehn Assistants-Earl Hughes, Ray Kauffman Circulation Manager-Mary Hetrick FACULTY ADVISERS Faculty Adviser-Wayne G.

Any girl taking home economics in the school is eligible for membership. This year the membership numbered fifty-six. The members do not pay dues, but earn the money for affiliation through some type of group project. Through its operation, the club aims to promote pleasant, wholesome, social affairs, develop team work and friendship, stimulate interest in hobbies and wise use of leisure time and foster high ideals of an appreciation of home life. Club members participate in numerous activities of vocational interest such as judging contests at local and state fairs, the making of a patchwork quilt, and the conducting of a Mother-Daughter Banquet. FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA This is ct national organization of boys. Vocational agriculture is studied by members of this club. It is composed of chapters from each state in the United States and some of its outlying possessions. The club is organized to encourage boys in the development of individual farming programs and estab- lishment in farming. It strengthens the confidence of farm boys and young men in themselves and their work. They strive to develop competent, aggres- sive, rurczl and agriculture leadership. One of the groups most important accomplishments is to start students in the farming vocation. Students have been entered in public speaking contests. Also, to the boy's credit are numerous prizes which they have won with school exhibits. Proud are they that they have raised three members to the Keystone Fanner's Degree. By raising funds throughout the year they are able to send students to the state convention each year. 53 ! E 5 5 2 I I 6 O I. IC -K GLEE CLUB The Glee Club is an organization in which anyone who is interested in music can participate. It is composed of twenty-three members representing all classes. The qualifications are: ability to read music of the simple hymn type and the possession of a pleasing voice quality. A number of years ago the club was started under the direction of I. Earl Baker. At that time the club consisted only of girls. In the past few years several boys became interested and entered the club. Under the direction of Robert Barber, the club became a combined glee club. The present director is Herbert Strohman. Some of the yearly events are singing at the Christmas program and also at Commencement. CAMP FIRE GIRLS Camp Fire was founded in 1912 as a national leisure time program for girls. It is the most comprehensive, extensive, and adjustable program in America to-day. The symbolism and ritual of beauty stress home life and service to others. Activities are grouped in seven crafts: home, health, hand, camp. nature, business, and citizenship. Growth or progress is rewarded by these ranks: trail-seeker, wood-gatherer, fire-maker, torch bearer. This year the Che-Gen-Be group is cooperating with the national service for victory program and the national birthday project of fortifying the family in morale, health, skillful living, education, recreation, and self-development. Some of our activities for the year were: equipping every girl with service costumes and those eligible with ceremonial gowns, advancing girls to next higher ranks, mother-daughter banquet, week-end at Camp Adahi. 54 OFFICERS President Myrtle Boyer Vice President Iean Dorn Secretary Barry DeLong Treasurer Eleanor Enoch Accompanist Virginia Glasser Adviser Herbert Strohman OFFICERS President Evelyn Hetrick Vice President Leona Folk Secretary Betty Aulenbach Treasurer Dorothy Hetriclc Scribe lane Levan Guardian Edna D.

Here they instruct var- ious squads under a teacher's supervision. During this period the qualities of leadership are developed. Through all their activities the principle of good sportsmanship is emphasized. The leaders who are trained here, besides aiding in gymnasium classes, also help out in the supervision and officiation of intramural sports. All sports as hockey, basketball, track, speedball, archery, volleyball, shuffleboard, darts, and baseball reign in their special season. Through variety of sports and contests, the interest so vital to the perpetuation of a club, is stimulated. CHEERLEADERS Blue and white, Blue and white, Those are the colors for which We fight. This became the motto of the Oley cheerleaders who have become a necessity in the athletic program of O. H. S. The first organized squad was formed even before this school was built, and has served for all basketball games and assembly programs. New songs and cheers have recently been developed by the squad and also after a period of years those snappy blue and white costumes have been made. A cheerleading letter will be awarded to the head cheerleader and smaller letters will be given to her assistants at the end of the school year. Cheer- leaders are not elected, they must compete for the honor as if taking part in a major sport. The following are the duties of the squad: 1. Take charge of all group singing and cheering activities. 2. Cheerleaders must assist the accompanying teacher in charge of the group on all athletic trips. 3. Cheerleaders, in order to receive their numerals must attend and lead all cheering and singing. h 57 ART CLUB One of the most informal clubs of the entire school is the art club, a period set aside for talented and aspiring artists in which they can delve into the realm of art in whatever mode they choose. They are completely at liberty to express their feelings and impressions in the medium of their own fancy. The artistic ability of a person is brought to a head during this time and can be directed into the channel of endeavor which is considered most suitable. Not only does this activity take place during the narrow limits of time allowed in a club period but it is carried on into the leisure time of the individual and eventually into life itself. SCIENCE CLUB The science club was organized at the beginning of the school term when competent leaders were chosen to carry on the activities of the coming year. These activities included: simple experiments to acquaint the members of the club with the various phases of science, the building of models such as air- planes and communication devices, the assembling of small motors, and field trips on which leaves, birds and flowers were identified. Opportunities, for those boys of the seventh and eighth grades who wished to explore the world of science, were provided by the science club. Much interest and initiative were shown throughout the year. There were no dull moments, the hour passed too quickly. The activities carried on during the club period gave the members many things to do during their leisure time. 58 OFFICERS President Gloria G.
