FRANTZ We, the class of 1957, salute Mark H. Frantz, a chal- lenging teacher, a tireless worker, and a Hne friend. Mr. Frantz, in his stay with us of three and a half years, de- voted his time and talents in helping our school to grow. Mr. Frantz, a graduate of Muhlenberg College, did post graduate' work at Columbia University and Gettys- burg Seminary and at present is a licensed psychologist in the State of Pennsylvania, and an ordained minister in the Lutheran Church. He also served four years in the United States Navy as a chaplain. XVhile on our faculty, Mr. Frantz taught world his- tory and English and served as our first official guidance counselor. In reorganizing student government, he be- came adviser of the Student Council. During his second year NIr.'Frantz helped develop a lively Hi-Y program and later became an honorary member of that club. As a guidance counselor, Mr. Frantz helped a countless number of students. Combining with his fine education and background, Mr. Frantz's outstanding personality made him the friend of many. In recognition of his fine qualities as a teacher, counselor, and friend we, the class of 1957, take pride in dedicating this book to Mark H. Frantz. Preparatory to a consultation, Mr Frantz procures a students personal file 3 j v 1 4 K 2 wr 20 TH anniversary fb., WN, 'Q ff. Twenty years ago students and faculty entered Pen Argyl High School, a new building, accentuated by a brilliant white dome. Now a score of years later, pupils still enter this edifice to advance themselves mentally, physically, and spiritually. Throughout these two decades our faculty has had many inter- esting and lasting experiences. Both the faculty and curriculum have undergone many alterations. The enlarged school population has necessitated increasing the number of faculty members from thirteen in 1937, to twenty-eight in 1957. The addition of the Agricultural Course, the Art Classes, the Home Economics and Industrial Arts departments has made the school a more practical insti- tution. Future collegiates and students whose education termin- ates with the leaving of high school receive beneficial aid from a guidance counselor. With the introduction of new equipment the school has become a more alluring place. Apparatus as motion picture cameras, powerful microscopes, and modern illustrated charts have supplemented previous methods of teaching. Teaching, a vital influence in American life, is constantly varying, but despite any modifications, the fundamental pur- pose of the faculty remains-to build a better world through education.

Jackson, our high school principal, keeps the coinplicated school system running smoothly. Schedul- ing classes and solving student and teaching problems are among his greatest responsibilities. In addition to his duties as principal, Nlr. jackson instructs an element- ary algebra and a plane geometry class. The Pen Argyl Area ,Ioint High School Board meets on the first Monday evening of every month. The ioint board consists of representa- tives of the member districts, Pen Argyl, Plain- field Township and XVind Cap, and maintains authority over both the elementary schools and the high school. Discussion by the board moti- vates actions which will be taken for the benefit of students and schools. Mr. Harold Sauerwine who presides ox er the meetings employs careful judgment in handling pretentious matters. W'hen deliberating concern- ing the student body and related questions, the school board is primarily interested in the stu- dents' welfare and educational advancement. The board of education, by unsellish and inter- ested application, has added imineasurably to the present and future educational needs of the district. , ,P V we K iii 'ff 5155 . - ,Mr K 1 ' , X QA . , X '--fs ' .fi X . 5 , : ff. , ,Ai .L 9 I ff r tx ' X V , I . an .

' .Q X 7 2 I Twclity years have changed very little the desires and purposes of a high school senior. In both eras, the goal was and is to be a useful citizen in a democracy, serving both Cod and man. Although the obstacles to gaining this end have al- tered, the methods of attainment have proportionately changed. Today the great hurdle is higher learning, which simply means education after high school whether it be secured in college, in the armed services, or in industry. As each succeeding class steps into its role as the senior classf it is sure to establish certain objectives which are the products of eleven years of preparation. The purpose of every graduating class is to introduce into society people who will be capable of success and who will be well-prepared to take their places in a changing world. The senior class is the step- ping stone from establishment to fulfillment of this purpose. This great task of fulfillment is accomplished in activities, in organizations and through experiences secured in the class- room and on the athletic field. It is also a product of the home, school, and church. However, to the high school senior, gradua- tion from high school looms greatest in his accomplishments. SEHIURS ARCANGELA I.

Most significant is the change in transpor- tation. Twenty years ago, out-of-town pupils had to find their own means of transportation. Now that a jointure has been estab- lished, pupils are transported by bus. This large group of trans- ported students has necessitated the establishment of a cafeteria serving a hot lunch to pupils desiring it. Before the construction of the present high school building for secondary grades, the McKinley school housed grades seven to twelve. WVith the greatly increased number of students it has been necessary for the seventh grade to remain in the McKinley Building for academic studies. One day a week each section travels to the high school for social sciences. Not only has the student body increased in number, but also in the scope of activities, curricular and extra-curricular. In ac- cordance with the concept of the education of the whole child, our school program encourages students to participate in many extra-curricular activities available to them in Pen Argyl Area joint High School. Thorough study and, careful planning of the administration, faculty and students have contributed to the success of these adjustments to the ever-changing times.

One day of each school week is spent at the high school for participation in classes of physical education, art, home economics, music, industrial arts, and library usage. Under the guidance of Miss Grace Dennis, Mrs. Dorothy Stopp, Harvey Rehrig and Blaine Strunk, four new clubs were formed: the Hobby Club, the French Club, the Nature Club, and the First Aid Club. Highlighting the class projects was a field trip, featuring visits to the Portland Sand and Gravel Com- pany, a nearby cattle ranch, and an exhibit of landscape art. The pinnacle of the year's activities was the spring dance. 7f3D-FIRST ROWV: Miss Dennis Chambers, Miller, Markowe, McNulty, Serfnss, Parry, YVilIiamson, Dawe Mr. MCKeand.

The graduating class of that year had just a few clubs and activities in which they could participate. Today we have a Student Council, a student rep- resentative group which assists in the governing of the student body. A school newspaper is printed monthly by the Green Echo staff. Better farming is furthered by the Future Farmers of America. The Fire Brigade promotes fire prevention and safety. The Mixed Chorus, junior Chorus, Band and school or- chestra provide stimulating and colorful entertainment. Chris- tian character is encouraged by the Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y. The stage is kept in order by the stage crew, reading is promoted by the Library Club, and the Honor Society stresses higher academ- ic standards. Efforts of the MEBIOIRS staff make the assem- bling of this book possible. In 1957 as an added attraction to give everyone a chance to indulge in activities, Mark Frantz, guidance couselor, established guidance clubs, holding weekly meetings and engaging in timely projects.

From the careful planning of pictorial coverage and manuscript to the last mailing of copy to the printer, our yearbook gradually took form. The objective of the staff was to reflect our scho0l's atmosphere and spirit, plus an accurate account of the yearis happenings. NVithin these pages are memories of some of the best days of our lives. Recognition must be given to artist Robert Dreher, photographer Kermit Pyshcr, faculty, student body and the advisers, Mrs. Marjorie XVilliams and Robert Behr.

Beautiful harmony best describes the singing of our Mixed Chorus. These melodious tones are achieved by the enjoyment of working and singing together. Preparation for each perform- ance of such a large group requires long hours of practice. The senior mixed chorus traveled to Lafayette College where they and other high school mixed choruses were drilled by Nlr. john Raymond, director of the Lafayette Choir. Mrs. Anna Kress, directress, held weekly rehearsals in order to prepare for the Christmas Pageant, a stimulating and colorful program enjoyed by everyone. Following the Christmas vacation, preparation began for the annual spring concert held in the high school in May. The senior mixed chorus also provided whole- some entertainment for several weekly assemblies. Mrs. Kress also directed a junior high school chorus consist- ing of members of the eighth and ninth grades, These young singers, numbering one hundred fifteen, gain much experience and knowledge which will prove worthy when they eventually become eligible for the senior musical group. 2 'S' R I FIRST ROXV: Sigmund, A.

The purpose of these clubs is to give some students an introduction into a profession for their future, to aid other students in public speaking along with dramatic acting, and to stimulate still others- with the appreciation of sports. The guidance clubs were established and introduced by Mark Frantz, guid- ance director of the school, thereafter the clubs were placed under the ad- visership of assigned teachers.

Coaching staffs, uniforms, and opponents have changed, I. V. squads, a girls' basketball team, and intramurals have been added to provide a well-bal- anced sports calendar. The coaching staffs have increased in number due to the growth of the athletic organizations, providing more coaches per athlete. Instead of the traditional green jerseys, the football team sported white jerseys at the home games. Several variations have been made in the roster of opponents, new adversaries were added and old foes dropped. The addition of junior varsity squads enable more students to participate in sports and provide the future varsity player with valuable experience and know- ledge of the sport. A more recent innovation benefiting the athletic-inclined girls, was a girls' basketball team. The team competes in the East Penn League against such opposition as Bethlehem, Bethle- hem Catholic, Allentown Central Catholic, Easton and Bangor High Schools. Also, intramurals have become a prominent part of the physical education department. Among all these changes the essentials of an athletic calen- dar still remain-sportsmanship and fair play, the true goals, keen competition and friendly rivalry, the salt of the menu.

Playing its best game of the year in the eyes of many spectators, the Green VVave romped over NVashington, N. I. Led -by great team play and Dom Betis trotting, the Pen Argyl eleven racked up its first victory in 13 games. After losing to powerful Nazareth 20-6 and strong Wilson 15-6, the Green NVave returned to the win column by topping Hellertown. A heart-breaking loss at the hands of Emmaus preceded the always thrilling Turkey Day Classic. Led by honorary co-captains Edward Lugg and Marlin Smickley, the Green NVave went seeking its first victory over Bangor in six years. The muddy gridiron produced a notice- able affect on the offensive machines of both elevens, for the game was literally a stand- still until late in the fourth quarter. Pen Argyl halfback Dick Rumsey and Bangor halfback Bob F inelli provided the cheering onlookers with some dazzling sprints throughout the classic. The play of the year turned a poten- tial scoreless tie into victory for PAHS. In the fourth quarter a misfired lateral from F.

Competing in the East Penn League proved to be a tough assignment. Coach Vivian Smith and her squad had high hopes of improving last season's winless record. The nucleus of the squad was composed of three senior lettermen and four veteran sophomores. One of the better games of the season was against Bethlehem Catholic, when PAHS lassies piled up 53 points. Although PAHS was not the victor, the girls were confident better days would come. The 1956-57 season is expected to be the end of this particular league competition. Efforts are being made to create a new schedule of oppon- ents which will enable the girls to participate in more equalized competition next year.

K :--Frgw Highlighting the calendar of special events are the junior- Senior Prom, the class play, the awards and honors assembly, and the Christmas Pageant. Since 1937 new features have been added to our calendarg some have been removedg others have remained unaltered through the years. The most noteworthy features are the formal dances. The sparkle and glitter of the Candy Cane Ball and the Junior-Senior Prom toss the school into a whirl of excitement. WVeeks before these affairs, decoration and refresh- ment committees busily plan arrangements. On the important night all efforts are rewarded with a gay time and a rich store of memories. Second only to the prom is the class play. The anti- cipation of the try-outs, the selection of the cast and the endless rehearsals create a maelstrom of trials and errors out of which finally emerges the satisfaction of a production well done. The Christmas Pageant with its drama, inspiration and solemnity ushers in the season of Yuletide. Audiences are stirred by the familiar scenes as they are portrayed once again. 'Climaxing the school year is the presentation of awards to the outstanding students at the annual honors assembly. Scholarship, character, leadership and citizenship are the keynotes of this program. Thus our calendar of events is completed for the year 1957.

Melody introduces her friends to Father jones. IllElUDll JONES Melody jones is the story of the kind of girl every girl wants to he, because she is honest, straightforward and uninhibited. The kind of girl every hoy likes because some- thing about her starts him singing. The kind of girl every father adores because she gives him headaches, heartaches, and the joyful life. But all the joy went out of Melody and Melodyls family that evening at the party when her cousin Elaine, in a fit of jealousy, tells her that she's adopted. This is thc story of a young girlls laughter and tears, a story to make one proud of American youth, a story, in which every scene seems to be realistic.
