In this small way we wish to show our appreciation for the vital work which they are doing. We realize that without their services the educa- tion which we received here in the past four years would be of little value. They are doing a splendid job of helping to preserve our four freedoms and striving to make the world a better place to live. To all servicemen everywhere We say, Good luck and a safe and speedy return to the homes you love. Three 7-at 21001 d In the production of this yearbook we have endeavored to por- tray the school life as we know it by means of words and pictures. It is extremely difficult for us to express our love for our dear old Alma Mater, although that is our purpose. Our many ex- periences here at Paradise have been a great inspiration to us all. We hope that in glancing over these pages you are inspired to a greater love and association for our school and that it will bring back to you some of the highlights of years well spent here at Paradise.

This young man has lots ol pep, Around the girls he likes to step. glam lkstozy i' 'k 'k 1941-1942 A shy group of forty-live freshmen trouped into Room F, not quite sure what was going to happen to them. Mr. Ralph Shuman was our homeroom teacher. The following oflicers were selected to lead the class: john Lichty, presidentg Ralph Homsher, vice-presidentg Sally Frew, secretary, and Lorraine Kemrer, treasurer. As the year began, there was quite a large number of students in Latin I class. My goodness, what a difficult time Miss Brown had trying to explain the many tenses to us! She told us that Latin was a dead language, and we certainly didn't doubt her word. As usual, the freshmen were initiated by the sophomores. Under the direction of Mr. Shuman, the freshmen presented a laughable assembly program. i' 1 942-1 943 Since we were now sophomores, we had the opportunity to initiate the freshmen. This was a great thrill for us. Miss Laura Beach, who later became Mrs. Laura Waltz, was our homeroom teacher. We chose for our officers Ralph Homsher, president, Enos Zimmerman, vice-president, Sally Frew, secretary, and Robert Brown, treasurer. This year our assembly program was a success. A snow storm brought a sleighing party for our class. The Hallowe'en party we held at the home of Bob Reese brought great enjoyment for everyone. 'k 1943-1944 This year we chose for our class officers Ralph Homsher, president, John Lichty, vice-president, Sally Frew, secretary, and Lorraine Kemrer, treasurer. The juniors presented a three-act comedy, entitled Prize Pigs, and directed by Miss Risse. In order to raise some money for the Junior-Senior Banquet held May 12, we sponsored a Leap Year Dance. An outstanding event of this year came when the junior boys defeated the senior boys for the intramural basketball championship. i' 1944-1945 We have at last come to the coveted position of being seniors. The oflicers we elected for the year are Wilmer Denlinger, Ralph Homsher, Sally Frew, and Adam Brown. They, together with Mrs. Dorothy J. Gard, our advisor, have done a splendid job in leading us through a very busy year. In our first meetings we were kept busy choosing our class colors, scarlet and gray, ordering our pennants, caps, and graduation announcements. We sponsored a successful school party on November 13. Our play, The Kid, originally scheduled to be held December 7 and 9, had to be postponed for one week because at the last minute Enos Zimmerman was involved in an automobile accident and the male cast had to be changed. Following the New Holland basketball game we sponsored a Valentine Dance which was very well attended. For some time we have been working diligently on our yearbook, we will allow you, our friends, to tell us whether or not our hard work was in vain. As we approach the end of the year, we look forward to com- mencement, an event which will stand out in every senior's mind. Nineteen glass LW! ind and We, the Class of 1945 of the Paradise Township High School, being of sound m unusual intelligence, do hereby make this our last will and testament. To the faculty we leave memories of our behavior. To the juniors we bestow all headaches in preparing a yearbook. To the sophomores we give our sophisticated disposition. To the freshmen we contribute our class reputation. As individuals, we bequeath the following: I, Janice Brackbill, will my Chemistry Lab Manual to Richard Dosch.

I, June Hagen, furnish my jitterbugging to Yvonne Miller. I, Jean Hersh, will my French marks to Betty Feister. I, Katherine Hershey, leave my violin playing to Joan Denlinger. I, Richard Hicks, bestow my neatness on William Graybill. I, Ralph Homsher, donate my bow tie to Victor Woods. I, Lorraine Kemrer, intend my cheerleading technique for Betty Rapp. I, John Lichty, transfer my ability to play forward to Ronald Shirk. I, Helen Mann, present my acting ability to Susan Groif. I, Kathleen Martin, give my I. Q. to anyone who needs it. I, Mary jane Moore, give my librarian position to Eva Denlinger. I, Esther Mowrer, bestow my quiet manner to Lois Myers.

I, Elizabeth Wimer, donate my blonde hair to Marcia Eshelman. I, Nancy Young, request that my tallness go to Betty GroE. I, Enos Zimmerman, bestow my looks on Roy Stoltzfus. In witness whereof, we, the Class of 45 , have here unto subscribed our names and aiiixed our seal, the thirty-first day of May, in the year of Our Lord, one thousand nine hundred 'forty-five. Witnesses: Donor:-xv J. GARD ARTHUR W. ESI-IELMAN CLASS OF 1945 Twenty 614:41 Prophecy iii The Hooded muddy rivers of time flow on carrying with them the destiny of the class. The waters darken ..... then clear. In the vision appears the famous designer, Barbara. Miss Fichtner is in the midst of planning a new summer wardrobe for Nancy Young, the greatest concert pianist ever to play in Camegie Hall. Barbara has just finished Miss Helen Mann's costumes for her trip to Hollywood. After playing the starring role in a Broadway play, she has accepted an offer from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Already Helen's secretaries, Janet Frymyer, Jean Hersh, and Helen Coble, whose name incidently has been changed, are very busy answering the tons of fan mail that pour in daily. As the waters become clearer, it is possible to see what destiny has dealt to the other members of the class. Janice Brackbill is now a laboratory technician at the Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D. C. She and Charles Watson have discovered a cure for infantile paralysis and as a result have been awarded the Nobel prize for their outstanding work. At the same hospital Katherine Hershey is helping with rehabilitation. john Lichty was married by Rev. Wilmer Denlinger to you know who and is now running what was formerly known as Fisher's Garage. His two children are turning into geniuses under the tutelage of Kathleen Martin in history, Evelyn Clark in mathematics, and June Hagen in physics. john lives in an ultramodem house with sunlight heating facilities. Sally Frew had charge of the interior decorations. A new B-92 has zoomed into view with Robert Brown at the controls. The fine efficiency of the huge plane is credited to designer Adam Brown, and to the ground mechanics, one of whom is Elvin Groff, who keeps the motors conditioned. Aboard the great airplane is the airline hostess, Jane Mowrer. The test flight was broadcast to the whole world by that famous critic and commentator, Richard Hicks. He was one of the first passengers and through the ingenuity of his assistants, Forrest Smoker and Ralph Homsher, was able to give a first-hand account over the radio during the flight. Esther Mowrer has designed a new hairdo called the fuzz top with the flat sides. It is very popular this season. The only member of the Class of '45 still in uniform is Dorothy Rapp, who remained in the WAVES after the peace was signed to help with the rehabilitation in Greece. The headlines of all the newspapers have recently proclaimed the latest plastic compound formulated by Enos Zimmerman. His office is famous not only for the plastics it has produced but also for the beautiful host of secretaries employed. Lorraine Kemrer and Mary Jane Moore are two of his very famous receptionists. Across the street from the Zimmerman Plastic Company is the Skiles and Reese Transit Company, noted for employing only women drivers. A blonde, Elizabeth Wimer, or a brunette, Helen Hoover, to drive you through the wide avenues of Paradise is their policy. Once more the waters cloud and onward flow the rivers of destiny.

Say, Good-by, to the things of your youth which have been So dear that they'll always remain in our hearts. We enjoyed the many things we did together, The basketball games and the rides on the sleigh. Also plays and operettas we'll remember forever, Even though we knew experience was our only pay. Today we are youths with many carefree Ways Who know nothing of the hardships of life. Tomorrow we'll be young men and women of the day, Going into a world of struggle and strife. So say, Hello, to the future and. Good-by, to the past, As we go forth, side by side, to meet in our stride The problems of the world. Knowing they cannot last, We will conquer them and in this world abide. EVELYN A.

The first semester proved to be a very busy one, First of all, class ohicers were elected as follows: Robert Esbenshade, presidentg Harold Mowrer, vice-president, Mary Jane Shreiner, secretaryg Eva Denlinger, treasurer. Next we chose maroon and white as our class colors, ordered our pennants, hats, and class rings. A blizzard furnished enough snow for a sleigh ride. The second semester began with nine girls and three boys chosen to portray characters in the junior play, Saved by the Belle. Next were two dances sponsored by the juniors, one after the Upper Leacock basketball game and one called the junior Bunny Hop. Last, but not least, came the Junior-Senior Banquet which we all enjoyed. We, the Class of 1946, sincerely wish happiness and success to each and every member of the Senior Class.

A' if if SOPHOMORES is 1 is In the beginning of the year we found ourselves with only fifteen in our class. As school continued, the number decreased, and we became the smallest class, consisting of only ten girls and two boys. Because of our small class we were given the stage as our homeroom. We started the year by electing officers for our class. They were as follows: presi- dent, Lewis Brysong vice-president, Ella Zimmerman, secretary, Evelyn Browng treasurer, Norma Hohman. One of the main events of the year occurred when Mr. Blevins took our biology class on a hike to Cedar Hill, We are now working on an assembly program which is to be given February 16. It will be in the form of a minstrel show. We also are hoping for a successful St. Patrick's Day party which is scheduled for March 16. We, the Sophomore Class, sincerely wish the Class of '45 all success and happiness through the years to come.

There were 42 of us, and Room F was not any too large. Our class was so large that we were divided into two groups, sections A and B. Friday, September 22, 1944, a class meeting was held under the supervision of Mr. Blevins, the class advisor, and class officers were elected: Robert Parmer, president, Fred Hershey, vice-president, Marcia Eshelman, secretary, and David Eby, treasurer. Then came our initiation rules. The girls had to wear aprons, one long stocking and one short stocking, while the boys wore bow-ties, and trouser legs rolled up so as to show odd socks. So far we have been trying to do our best in supporting class parties. We planned a Freshman Class party on january 5, but it was postponed until the latter part of February. As the Class of '45 prepares to leave the high school to become alumni, we, the Class of '48, wish you happiness and success throughout your joumey in life.

When school started, we elected our class oflicers: Eugene Mowrer, presidentg Howard Rathman, vice-president, Ruth Shissler, secretaryg and Lester Henry, treasurer, Miss Noll has become our class advisor and has helped us very much during the year. In addition to our many athletic activities, we collected twenty-eight bags of milkweed to be used for life jackets. We also had an evening of fun at the Hallowe'en party. There were prizes awarded and plenty to eat. We have been selling war bonds and stamps and are leading in the sales. We hope to keep up the good work. We, the Eighth Grade, extend our best wishes to the seniors and hope that success will follow them in anything they may attempt after leaving P. H. S.

Gamber sitting at the desk. We were glad that now we would be going to school in the high school building. For most of us, this had always been our greatest desire. For our class officers we chose Joan Denlinger, president, Roy Stoltzfus, vice-president, Kathleen Denlinger, secretary, and Ronald Shirk, treasurer. We are proud to have that wonderful salesman, Mr. Gamber, for our homeroom teacher. He has helped us greatly in the sale of war stamps and bonds, in the selling of basketball pencils, and in collecting money for the March of Dimes. We, the Seventh Grade, wish the seniors success and happiness throughout the rest of their joumey in life. Thirty 0 Mi' Aw .,..a, 5,-ki M Aww. ww MW .uwynwx M v i , E?

'A' 'A' 'k LIBRARIANS 'k 'k i' Each of us is assigned to work in the library one period a week. We keep silence for those who wish to study, help students choose books, and keep the library in order. We are also taught how to mend, sew, and rebind tom books. Many new fiction and non-fiction books have been added to the shelves of our librar some of which are Hungry Hill, The Day Must Dawn, Queens Die Proudly, God Is My Co-pilot, George Washington Carver, and Indian Captive. The Encyclopedia Americana in thirty volumes was added for reference. Since we have started a magazine file, we have added to our library a Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature so that students may be able to use back numbers of our magazines for reference. yv In addition to securing variety by buying new books, our library also borrows many books every six weeks from the Lancaster Bookmobile. Mrs. Dorothy J. Gard is the faithful directress who has won much credit for filling and refilling the library shelves. We, the librarians, hope that the seniors continue their reading throughout their lives.

Mr. Clyde R. Gamber is Commander of our squad. We are on duty regularly at noon and after school. Some of our members are stationed at intervals along the highway to supervise the coming and going of the students. We have listed below some rules for safe walking which we ask our fellow students to follow. 1. Stop and look both ways before crossing any street. 2. Do not run out between parked cars. 3. Do not play in the street. 4. When walking on rural highways, walk facing traffic. 5. If riding a bicycle, give signals same as driver of a motor vehicle. 6. Never hitch on to any vehicle. 7. Always Be Careful. We wish the seniors of '45 a life of safety and success.

The classes choose their own representatives. There are also two others ap- pointed by Mr. Eshelman, one to be fire chief and one to be lieutenant. Mr. Eshelman has been our trustworthy leader since the patrol was organized. Every month we have unexpected tire drills to train the leaders and pupils for a rapid exit in case of fire. It is the duty of the patrol to get the pupils out of the building in an orderly fashion and close all doors and windows. The members of the Fire patrol take this opportunity to extend to the seniors a wish that they find success and happiness in the years to come.

Janice Brackbill by Wilmer Denlinger.J The Kid, presented by the Senior Class on the nights of December 14 and 16, proved a great success. The play is centered around Teddy Randall, who is a typical high school student and is the leader of his own swing band, entitled Teddy Randall's High Swingers. He has become deficient in his Latin and chemistry, and Theodore, his father, tells him that he may not play with his band until he brings up his marks in those subjects. Laurie, his kid sister, Sue, his girl friend, and Jack, Laurie's boy friend, all attempt to get permission for Teddy to go back to his band. Theodore is always irritable because Herbert Osbome, manager of the Star Drug Company, is continually cutting prices to ruin Theodore's drug store. Cora has a difficult time trying to keep her husband, Theodore, under control. Teddy's one ally is Granny who has more brains than she is credited with. Mary, Teddy's oldest sister, linally marries Herbert, and their wedding present is Theodore's drug store. The piano is unlocked and once more Teddy and the band play Swing Into Your Dreams, Teddy's own composition. Directress-MRS. DOROTHY J.

Robert Trout The setting is the living room of the Aurora Sorority House at Stonehall College for Women. The central character is Rita Powers, an orphan, who has been kept in school by her Uncle Henry who lives in New York. After his death Rita was supposed to inherit a lot of money from his estate but later found her uncle left her only one bequest which turned up at the sorority house in the person of Jackie Clark, a young lighter, accompanied by his trainer, Slugger O'Day. Since Uncle Henry left his fifty per cent interest in Jackie to Rita, the girls had to house Jackie and Slugger in the garage because both were penniless. To explain this to Mrs. Fish, the house mother, they are introduced as dancing teachers. Warren Sands, a young reporter, leams the girls are hiding Jackie and Slugger and threatens to expose them in his paper, but the girls kidnap Warren and hold him captive in the house. Eventually everything gets straightened out, and Jackie gets the chance to light for the title and wins the championship. To top it all, Rita finds romance in an unexpected quarter.

Having a very successful and enjoyable year under the direction of Miss Spangler, the band gave a concert on March 2. The program consisted of a great variety of musical numbers. There were marches, overtures, and classics. We, the members of the band, extend our best wishes to the seniors for success and happiness in life.

The last period every Tuesday aftemoon the members of the orchestra can be seen hard at bowing or blowing, while Miss Spangler waves her baton furiously. The favorite type pieces for most of the players are marches and overtures. It really keeps the fiddlers busy to keep up with the clarinets, trumpets, and trombones in a cut- time march. The junior and senior plays and commencement offer a chance for the orchestra to perform in public and to show what a talented group of musicians P. H. S. has. The underclassmen of the orchestra extend to the seniors the hope that music will bring joy and pleasure to them during the coming years.

Many sopranos and altos, a few tenors, and several basses were chosen for this group. Our first public appearance was on December 21 when we presented in the high school auditorium The Nativity Song, a Christmas Cantata. Soloists were Betty Patton and Mary Jane Shreiner, sopranosg Dorothy Rapp and Kathryn Hershey, altosg and Wilmer Denlinger, tenor. We later repeated this program in assembly for the benefit of those who did not attend the cantata. This same group plans to present an operetta in the spring. We shall also sing several numbers for the commencement program. A great deal of credit is to be given to Miss Grace Spangler for her careful and patient planning of our musical numbers. We, the Mixed Chorus, hope that you seniors will continue to sing your way through life.

Lorraine Kemrer was elect- ed captain for the season of 1944-1945. Many new cheers and also two new songs have been added to the repertoire. This year the cheerleaders have also given tryouts for those who wish to become cheerleaders in the future. The fact that the cheerleaders really mean something to the players was proved especially at the East Lampeter game on February 2. Because they were able to win the support of the student body, not only at this game but at every game, the cheerleaders deserve much credit for cheering the Angels on to victory. ti' BOYS' INTRAMURALS Mr. Edison Blevins has charge of the boys' sports. Because of the unequal number of boys in the classes, he has divided all the boys in the high school into three teams. This gives every boy who wants to play a chance to take part. For the fall sports the teams were Navy with Enos Zimmerman as cap- tain, Seabees with Harold Mowrer as leader, and Air Corps with Robert Brown as pilot. The Navy was the leading team. The boys were assigned to dilierent teams for the winter sports. Because the main winter sport is basketball, each team is directed by two boys from the varsity. Of the three teams, Navy, Marines, and Engineers, the Navy is leading in number of games won. I 1'fty-one ,Y wiv! 5? 1 , 3 ,,.. xy? M.
