VVe are both thankful and grateful for the many opportunities presented to tis here. With confidence we meet the tasks and responsibilities before us in this changing world. It is by the principles of mutual understanding, tolerance, and co-operation, so urgently impressed upon us that we have been made aware of our duty to become good citizens of our community, our nation, and our world. Because the world has become a neighborhood, we have chosen the seven continents as the theme of our book. Our sincerest hope is that we may in some small way apply the virtues of understanding, tolerance, and co-operation, so that they may contribute to international good will and harmony. The wide knowledge and great opportunities opened before us at Parkland in the past twelve years, have made us mindful of the fact that so much depends upon us. We realize that even in world affairs, each new day makes the individual increasingly important. With a sincere thank you to those who gave so fully of their wisdom and work, a prayer remains on our lips for mankind. May God help us as we dedicate this book to the crusade for world peace and understanding. DEDICATION • 9 © 7 tr. p. tyernerci We, the class of 1953, will always remember with great honor and respect one of the sincerest of our faculty members. His understanding, guidance, and willingness to help, can never be forgotten nor too highly valued. His patience, endurance, wisdom, and thoughtfulness, extended to each pupil has inspired us to achieve success in whatever we may do. Consequently, it is in a spirit of appreciation for his unlimited services to Parkland youth, that we respectfully dedicate the 1953 Parkey to Mr. Henry J. Gernerd.

Noble shrine of Truth and Light; We praise thee ever to the skies Where wisdom rules the heavens bright. Portals wide are ever opened To our youth that, ne’er denied, Acclaims thee with exulting voice, So joyful with thee to abide. Praises linger on our lips As we depart thy cherished halls, No more to view the happy throngs Of loved ones still within thy walls. Ne’er forgetting, ne’er regretting Precious days so quickly flown. Oh! Alma Mater, hear our song, Our hymn of praise for thee alone. $5 - Page l eu CLASS MOTTO 'It matters not how long we live, but how.” CLASS FLOWER Yellow tea rose CLASS COLORS Blue and Gold PAR-KEy CLASS OF 1953 CLASS ADVISERS Mrs. Elizabeth Anderson Mrs. Margaret Weishaar Mr. James Lutz Mr. Henrv Gernerd CLASS OFFICERS President ...............Robert Sotak Vice President...........Marlin Rickert Secretary.........................Faith Hecht Treasurer...............Loretta Kistler Page Elei'en PAR-KEy Dorothy Irene Adams Route 1, Breinigsville COMMERCIAL “Dolly . . . small and quiet . . . big brown eyes . . . likes lo skate . . . easy to get along with ... a hard worker . . . will make some boss a good secretary.

Page Thirty-four Cl ass I listorv Glancing carelessly through the histories in the library, my eye was attracted to a large, dusty book. Its gold letters spelled out. Histories of Notable High School Classes. Opening the book, 1 quickly turned to the Index, and there it was. written in small black letters, “Parkland High School — 1953.” I turned to the page and began reading . . . On September 3. 1949, Parkland High School spread its welcome mat to the many enthusiastic knowledge seekers. It wasn’t hard to find the future class of 1953 for they were either characterized by a hesitant, frightened expression or a loud, robust manner. These manifest characteristics were soon blended, and the class fell into its daily school routine. Class harmony and organization quickly followed as President Robert Sotak undertook the many responsibilities bestowed upon him. Elected to assist him were Shirley Starr. Vice President; Carole Trexler, Secretary; and Allen Soli, Treasurer. As the students took studies into their stride, the American Legion rewarded Marilyn Radio and Robert Sotak for their outstanding efforts in citizenship. Turning to the sports angle, we find that the '53 Class proudly walked P. H. S. halls when they defeated the upper classmen in intramural basketball, baseball, and track. What a victory! Every freshman's beaming face plainly showed the outcome. At first they shied at joining Parkland’s activities, but slowly, as the shell of hesitancy and fear wore oil, various members made a name for themselves in Girl's Chorus, Debate, and band. Towards the end of the year, the Juniors held the annual Junior-Senior Prom. Even the freshmen felt a tinge of the anticipation expressed by the upper classmen as June Schraden, Faith Hecht, Marilyn Radio, Kathleen Platt, Delores DeSilva, and Carolyn Siettler were selected hostesses. The year ended with a picnic at Dorney Park. The next year at Parkland High was even more interesting than the first. After renewing old acquaintances, everyone soon went to work as a class. On November 20. 1950, the Class of '53 chose the following people as Class officers for the coming year: Robert Sotak, continued his job as President: Mariane Pastuszak. was newly elected Vice President along with Faith Hecht as Secretary; and Loretta Kistler as Treasurer. Among the notables of the class were Marilyn Radio, who was elected President of the Debate Club—(an honor for any Sophomore); Barbara Schrope, who participated in the District Band: anti Kathy Platt, who represented the class in Lehigh Valley's Spelling Bee. Toward the end of winter the Debate Club presented the play called “The Divine Flora,” featuring Pauline Seyer and Faith Hecht! On March 31. Parkland guys and dolls tripped the light fantastic to the strains of Dick Kriner and his orchestra in the P. H. S. gym. The “Spring Fling,” the class' first activity, proved to be a huge success (in spite of predictions to the contrary.) June soon rolled around and with it the annual school picnic at Dorney Park. After three months vacation, the class returned to school assuming the lofty position of Juniors. The first thing on the agenda for the 1951-52 year was the task of electing officers. Since the officers of the previous year had done a wonderful job in handling the responsibilities of the class, they were again called upon to serve the cause. The money-making problem was next. To prove tbeir excellent success in salesmanship they started selling various articles such as Parkland beanies, sweater-shirts, and pencils with the season's basketball schedule on them. About this time new cheerleaders were chosen from our class — Dolores Potrako. Polly Seyer, anil Pal Karabin. This year a Student Council was again initiated after a few years absence from P. H. S. The (Mass of '53 was proudly represented by Marilyn Radio and Page Thirty-five PAR-KE PAR-KEy Kathy Platt. The school year was rolling on quite rapidly. Right after the Christinas holidays the Juniors set up committees for their oncoming dance, “The Sno Ball,” held on January 10, 1952. This dance (as were all of the '53’s dances) was a tremendous success. Next on the list of activities was the |unior Class play, “There's Always A Murder,” held on March 6—7, 1952. Producing realistic scenes for horrified audiences were Barb Lewis and Dave Miller in the leading parts. Once again Barbara Schrope honored the (lass by her participation in District Band. At last that long awaited day arrived, the Juniors received their all-American class rings and were thereafter seen proudly showing them off to everyone, especially the under-classmen. Satisfying an age-old urge to travel. Polly Sever, Dolores Potrako, Kathleen Platt. Faith Hecht, and Carol Rogers, attended the Columbia Scholastic Press Association in New York. They were accompanied by Mrs. I rainer; and after gaining pointers on journalism, the group enjoyed the sights of New York. Meanwhile, the treasury tides were low, and a roller skating party inflated it to reason ing levels. Thus on May 3. 1952, the party was held at the designated place, Dorney Park skating rink. The highlight of the year was the illustrious junior Prom. Polly Sever looked radiantly lovely as she reigned over the affair after being chosen Queen. Attending her were Marilyn Radio. Faith Hecht, Alice Freas, Ruth Heintzehnan. Jane Eisele, and Mariane Pastuszak. The prom was held at the Allentown Woman's Club on May 10. 1952. At the end of the semester the Class of 53 witnessed what they were to undergo the following year. Several of the Juniors girls served as ushers in the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises. Having bid farewell to the upperclassmen, the class set out for Dorney Park and a summer vacation. During vacation time many class members began to set the precedent for their future careers. One of these was Dean Lakatosh, who. after being chosen to participate on the All Star Baseball team, made his next appearance as a T. V. Star. Returning to Parkland in the same happy-go-lucky style after an eventful vacation for all, the seniors took only a matter of days to assume their new seniority role. Starting the new year right, they once again elected President Sotak. Marlin Rickert was newly elected to serve as Vice President and the other positions were left in the capable hands of the previous year’s officers. Deciding to make their last year a most memorable one, they opened the P. H. S. dancing season with “Sadie’s Big Chance, on October 25, 1952; and what a chance it was for the young Sadies’, many of which had their Abners’ well in hand. Following that, they enthusiastically began to produce the play, “Our Miss Brooks,” starring Marilyn Radio as Miss Brooks. The Seniors tucked another proud note under their chins when they learned the play was a success. Next on the social calendar came the “Snowflake Flutter” on January 17, 1953, followed by the last dance ever to be sponsored by the Senior Class on April 18. Although they weren’t elaborate affairs, those who were soon to leave the school tucked the dancing memories away in a convenient place, never to be forgotten. In the meantime, name cards, class pictures, and yearbook committees filled their immediate moments while plans for the Washington class trip filled the remote periods. As the year drew to an end, the class members tried to busy themselves with Class Day and graduation plans. Baccalaureate Services were held on May 2 1, 1953, Commencement exercises were performed on May 28. Everyone tried to hide their dreaded thoughts of leaving, but as they bade farewell, they knew the pleasant memories of four years at Parkland would never be relinquished. Another year has gone, another class has passed one of the greatest milestones. taking with it the vast amounts of knowledge it has gained in twelve years at Parkland High School. As the future looms before them, they leave behind them a sincere thanks to their teachers, and to each other, for preparing them to meet the future with assurance of success. Page Th irly six 66 Stuir Dreams Are Macle Of! As I sai in my reserved corner table at the world renowned Ostrich Club of Minesite, Pennsylvania, my attention was attracted to a far corner of the club room where I saw manager Sherman Holben welcoming and interviewing local celebrities. At the first table Sherman found the literary set managing a few bites between their never-ending lines of chatter. Turning to the left, we saw, Miss Grace O. Parsons, who had just returned from Bohdan M. Taylor's gala Hollywood party, where he entertained Glenn S. Barrymore, Stephanie E. Davis, Faith H. Monroe, Sherwood K. Gable, Alfred S. Clift, and many other famous actors and actresses. Jack I). Lombardo and his “Royal Scandinavians' provided the • musical splendor of the evening with that famous Ruth 1). Clooney as the star vocalist. Miss Parsons told us that Marvin B. Shaw, after many unsuccessful marriages to such notables as Jane E. Turner. Ruth H. Monte , Mildred L. Taylor, Mariane P. Fontaine, Dorothy A. Mayo, and Vivian L. Leigh, recently had married Kathleen U. Moore and claimed “this one’s for keeps!” Moving on to Joan M. Hopper’s table. Sherman found her bubbling over with important news for all of us. Miss Hopper proudly announced that Kathleen P. Martin and David M. Pinza would soon open in their new Broadway play, “North Pacific.” Also starring in this exciting musical number would be Nancy K. Lande. who is to |x rtray the part of the tribal chief’s wife. Miss Hopper also said that, retiring alter many years as a popular crooner. Vincent CL Sinatra, who has been the dominating heart thump for years, is finally going to settle down with his wife, Helen S. Gardener, and their three sons, David, Dean, and Denny. Just then that famous commentator. Walter K. Winched, joined me at my table for dinner. We started chatting about recent news of famous TV stars and he told me that Barbara L. Coca and Don K. Caesar, that famous team on “Your Show of Shows, were going to take a six weeks vacation, which we both agreed was weII-deserved. It was also said that Daniel M. Godfrey might take a short trip to Florida for a bit of relaxation. Switching to the more juvenile entertainment department, Walter told me that the popular puppet show, “Alice, June, and Gail,” would have their regularly scheduled time changed to Sunday afternoon at three o'clock instead of four o’clock. It was also rumored that “Private Secretary,” that famous Sunday evening show, may be canceled this week due to the fact that its star, Loretta K. Sothern, discolored her toenail while stamping her foot during rehearsal. Interrupting our chat, the Robert R. Mitchum's (Mrs. Mitchum is the former Constance Royer) and the Alan Ladd's joined us for a bit of conversation. Just as they were seated there was a flourish of drums and the guest of honor arrived, none other than the director of P.H.S. studios. Austin M. Zanuck. The lights dimmed, the “spots” brightened, the music started! Oh. no! Not 3 a.in.! I’ve fallen asleep at the long deserted “Shanty.” I've been dreaming!

At the local railroad station I was welcomed by their honorable President, RoIkti Sotak, and his able Veep. Marlin Rickert. Roger Howells rules with an iron hand as Speaker (and we do mean speaker) of the House: he is sometimes affectionately referred to as “the voice.” Jim Holben, who holds the distinctive office of Ambassador to the State of Confusion, was also there to greet me. Other officials present were David Lakatosh, head of the “De Fence Department and Raymond Miller, head of the Treasury Department. 1 was informed that my schedule for the day would include luncheon with Ormrod's ambassador, Marilyn Radio, who recently appealed to the President for a ban on all television sets in her region. Also sipping tea at the luncheon table was the Hon. Dangerous Dan McHugh, who is advocating the teaching of Irish instead of French in the schools of his Cetronia realm. S|K)tting a large poster on the window of the “Geiger Sisters' Department Store, I found that local “Udopians would thrill that night to the performance of that widely known baritone singer, Ruth Dehrs. Accompanying her was to be that celebrated musician. Boh Urffer. Just then my guide informed me that 1 was to be present at the program that night as special agent. That evening while attending the program I noticed that those ardent music lovers. Shirley Starr. Frank Rabert, Barbara Lewis, and Don Kern were among the many celebrities present. An added attraction was the Ninth Piano Quartet which consisted of Gus Kuhns, Marie German. Pat karabin. and Stephanie Everett. Fite other eight had been banned for all time in “Udopia. Returning to my hotel room after a very pleasant day, I read the local newspaper before retiring for the night. The spotlight was on professional sports: many of the alumni of the class of '53 were bringing glory to Old Dopey” as the natives sometimes call it. Dean and Denny Lakatosh were turning the baseball world upside down with their .4000 batting averages. Skip Schwartz pitched a no-hit. no-run game against the Greenawalds Gophers and in the track section. Vince Grabarits and Dave “Flash Koch were represented on the Olympic team and it looked as though the whole town might run with them. (There were rumors that “revenuers” were around.) In the women's sports section, Sink 'em in Herber and Greased Lightning” Potrako were co-captains of the famed Brooklyn “World Walkers and were running the Harlem Globe Trotters out of competition. There was a game scheduled the next night in “Squared Circle” Garden in Laurys. On the women's page I read that Faith Hecht was to have the distinction l being chosen the Inst woman president of that famed institution that has dedicated itself to strengthening public moral. “Miller's Underwear, Inc. Finding it to be 11:30 p.m., I finished reading the paper and retired to a much needed night of rest. The next morning I took a trip across town where quite a different ty| e ol show was taking place, none other than the circus! Pat Weidner seemed to be up in the air about something, anti at closer glance 1 saw that she was swinging on the trapeze. There seemed to Ik- some trouble around the monkey cage: and looking into the middle of the ring. I saw that the star chimp was Page Forty-two drastically ill. Quite excited, the ringmaster asked the audience if there was a doctor in the house. Ah. yes! Who was there but Dr. Dave Miller with his scotch plaid hag. Out of it came the medicine which cured the ailing ape. What did he use? Yes, that’s right . . . the doctor fed the chimp a huge pizza pie. In no time at all he was dancing around in glee, fully recovered. Just then there came another local character. Boh Roth, who looked most distinguished in a white uniform of some type. The crowd blocked my view; hut as he came closer, I saw it was the garb of a popcorn vendor! Yessir, there was a local boy who had really made good. In the big tent the crowd was in hysterics over the antics of the painted clown, who looked quite a bit like another one-time Parklander, Milty Lawrence. It was hard to distinguish him underneath all the grease paint, but that strut of his gave him away. Barb Schrope was the bareback artist, and training the elephants I found none other than that fabulous Giggling Doris Diehl. Jack “Sousa” Donaghy was dressed most appropriately in the red and gold garb of the cirrus band director. Naturally, first “glock player was petite Loretta Huber. Returning from the circus and having lunch, I was taken on a tour of the different educational institutions of “Udopia.” As president of “Udopia University, 1 found Don Drabick, with Dot Senyak serving as his able secretary. At Cypress Valley College in “Upper Snookville, Marjorie Gavlick. that noted lady of learning, had been recently chosen Dean of Women. The “Snooks baseball team had just posted a victory over the girls from Leather Corner Post University and attributed their success to their talented coach, “Ruthless” Ruth Herber. In the library at “Snook U.,” 1 learned that the noted critic and lecturer, Gaylord “Schnauzer Nagle, had just written another best-seller, “False Teeth and Pizza Pie a La Marcos.” It was noted that he was taking time out from his busy schedule this year for a world-wide tour of major cities to lecture on a matter of vital importance to our nation’s economy, “The Culture behind the Pinball Machine.” Getting back to my hotel room after having dinner, I was more than pleased with my day’s adventures and decided to retire, since I was to arise early the next morning to visit the business section of the town. Upon entering “Udopia's” largest department store, I found that old classmate. Man Bortz. serving as manager, and assisting him none other than Erwin Hendricks, who always did have a great desire for leadership. Head of the personnel department was Anita Linde and from the looks of things she really was doing a swell job. Recently she had promoted Robert Serfass from stock boy to head of the toothbrush department. As head of other various departments I found Forrest Masonheimer in shoe strings; Jane Eisele in candy, gum, and notions; and as head of the Women's Apparel department none other than Donald Heller, who always did have an eye for women’s up-to-date styles. After leaving the department store and starting for the railroad station, we turned down Willow Street, where my eye was directed to a sign reading “Undertaker, Donald Schumaker.” Living next door was the caretaker of “Udopia’s Underground Gardens.” Sherwood Krause. At the railroad station I bade forewell to the “Udopians, who had so hospitably provided such an entertaining visit. Pag F(nt thrre and I estanient PAR-KEY C lass Will $p Jit jRrmrmhrrrft .. .

Fagr Forty-four Par-lVey Staff The Par-Key Staff has one of the longest activity spans of any school organization. Beginning in September, its efforts bear fruit late in May. The stall of 1953 has tried to give to Parkland supporters a memento that is both a true picture of school life in 1953 and yet different and original in design and content. The sincere wish of this stall is that in years to come this effort will still be outstanding.

World War II. however, interrupted participation for a short time. In 1947 our present coach, Aral Hcnninger, assumed coaching responsibilities, and with this change of office an increased interest and extended development ensued. Before 1919 Parkland's track teams sedulously practiced on the roads around the school or on the imaginative track on the playground. However, in 1949 efforts were rewarded, and Parkland received a long awaited track course. Since the track course was constructed, our teams have progressed amazingly well. Our freshmen who received honors in the Venzke Relays in 1947 and 1950 were awarded three plaques, two of them in the latter year. In the recently reopened Bethlehem Relays Parkland showed its capabilities by winning a trophy for the 440 yard relay. Parkland’s progress in the past years can also be marked by successes in district meets. In 1949 and 1950 we placed third; in 1951 we were second, losing only to a more experienced Coaldalc by 2 points; in 1952 we took the final step, and honors were brought to Parkland when the District 11 Class B Championship was won for the first time in our track history. This year, 1953. we entered Class A which will require more painstaking efforts to maintain past records. Parkland has the honor of holding three records in the District 11 P.I.A.A. Class B. Stanley Royer holds the mile record at 4 minutes, 45.3 seconds. Frank Faustner has the pole vaulting record at IT lli 2 , and William Gernerd holds the broad jump record at 19' fi1 2 ■ Aside from league and district honors, several students have set excellent inter-school records. lilt- I RACK RECORDS OF PARKLAND Time Year Height or Estab- Record Holder Event Distance lished Lawrence Krumanochcr 100 yd.
