GROVE lin jflflzmnriam is Glorious memories of those happy cmd hectic days with classmates and teachers are still fresh in the minds of the seniors of 1950. But, so that We may have a souvenir in years to come, the LION staff has worked hard and long, putting on paper what We still so vividly recall of our final year at Red Lion High. By October the sales campaign was in full swing and shutters were clicking thick and fast. The inhabitants of our alma mater became in- creasingly aware that their every deed was Through the Eilorls being recorded for posterity. From this time on, speed was the by-word. The editors besought and intimidated the writers to hand iri articles, the writers chewed their pen- cils, and the advisor tore her hair.

Most students had not yet thought of toting that mountainous stack of books for another nine months, and their mothers had not yet enrolled in the course on How to Get Iunior to School on Time in Ten Easy Les- sons. But not so the sports-minded, for on this fatal date Coach Nitchkey issued the call for football players. The following week, the fellows who have since distinguished themselves on the field and on the bench, lined up for scrimmage. On the sidelines, the gridmen of 1930 and 1960 inter- rupted their recollections and expectations to shout words of advice or admonition. Red Lion is truly sports-minded. All year 'round the local fans follow our athletic activities with great enthusiasm. An unexpected victory, the arrival of new equipment, a conference title, a spectacular play-all are sources of joy to the entire town. The people take pride in the teams' records victorie of good sportsmanship as well as the s they chalk up for the Gold and Black. Taking advantage of this interest, the student council has expanded the pep assembly idea both indoors and outdoors. tOn several occasions it was had be junior-s The out of pep thought that the roof of the auditorium en raised perceptably as the combined enior high students raised their voices.l door series was highlighted by a number rallies downtown fone of which was broadcast over a local radio stationl which fea- tured, i by con n addition to the cheerleaders, addresses imunity officials and the coaches, the band, and our mascot-Leo the Lion.

E 1 1 Kiick-011 ut 2:15 From the confab on that hot August afternoon, Head Coach Nitchkey and his assistants, Mr. Haugen and Mr. Yost, brought forth the 1949 football team. Footballs soon began to fill the air as the boys practiced. Punts . . . passes . . . tackles . . . plays . . . placements . . . filled their days and their dreams. The recruits for the team went into stre-nuous training to get in tip-top shape for the coming grid season. The fellows soon lost all those extra pounds which had been gained dur- ing the summer. The four returning lettermen, Ronnie Holtz- inger, Dale Kinard, Gene Neff, and Bob Norris, all seniors, formed the nucleus around which the team was built. Besides the Varsity contenders, many boys, especially junior high, were also to receive valuable training on the junior varsity squad. Although they played no games, their time was not wasted, for by scrimmaging with nearby teams, they were preparing themselves for future seasons. These fellows, approximately forty in number, worked under Coaches H. Myers and Zeigler. For over a month they practiced only blocking and tackling before starting any plays. In their scrim- mage with Stewartstown they outscored their opponents, but the West York scrimmage was broken up by rain before much was accom- plished. This was the only action the Iay-Vees saw, but the Varsity played a nine-game schedule. Under a blazing sun on the seventeenth of September, in the midst of hot dogs, cokes, and cheers, a whistle blew and the 1949 gridiron season was underway for Red Lion High. Lititz was the scene of the first game and when it had drawn to a close, Red Lion had been nipped by a one-point margin. The first touchdown honor of the year went to Ronnie Holtzinger while the other tally in the Lititz game was made by Norris on a quarterback sneak. Next, as fate luckily turned the tables, the Hill- top boys won a close tilt by the extra point mar- gin which was supplied by Dale Kinard. Holtz- inger and Neff crossed the goal line in this battle under the lights at Susquehanna Township.

Neff first reached pay-dirt from the eight-yard line, and seconds later an aerial, Ronnie Holtzinger to Bob Snyder, covered sixty yards for a touchdown. In the game's dying mo- ments, Ropp made the third score. The following Saturday our team, tottering after an early lead. lost their second straight home game to Lemoyne before a large Booster Day crowd. Both scores were credited to Wiggle Weigel. Then came a most important game and the first big upset of the season by Red Lion. Meet- ing a highly favored York Catholic team before a large home crowd, the inspired Lions com- pletely out-battled their county rivals. The first score was made on a pass play, Norris to Snyder, from the fifteen, after which Kinard booted the extra point, his ninth straight. Norris netted the other touchdown and when the teams left the field, Red Lion had humbled York Catholic by an unexpected 13 to 6 victory. Playing their second night game of the season, this time at Ephrata, the team gained their sec- ond straight win in a thrilling contest. Again the placements provided the winning margin and TD honors went to Ropp, Weigel, and Norris. '49 SCORES Lititz . ............. . Susquehanna Twp. . .

Almost any afternoon the girls can be found in the gym or on the softball field after the 3:40 bell-that is, if the boys haven't any practices or games scheduled. Practically all their tourna- ments are reeled off after school. The gym just isn't big enough for both the boys and the girls so the girls have to be satisfied with their time, but they keep begging for more. fWait till the new gym, girlsll To become a member of the G.

As in former years the G. A. A. members se- lected the gridman who, in their minds, was the outstanding player. Ronnie Holtzinger was chosen king for '49 and his identity was not re- vealed until he was crowned at the Football Dance by the G. A. A. president, Ioan Miller. About this time, the volleyball season was in full swing, and members of the weaker sex were appearing rather strong as they made serves or volleyed the ball around. Playing like mad, these teams tried to outplay each other so they would be at the top in the final standings. Some of 'these games were just as exciting and entertaining as the boys'. This year there were loads of birds-sparrows . . . robins . . . eagles . . . chickadees-around school. For the unenlightened, these were the names chosen for the different teams. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, the vol- leyball season ended and all-star teams were chosen. These games provided plenty of thrills when the cream of the crop got together. In other words, the outstanding members from each grade were chosen to see action. Then, as the basketball season got underway. the girls learned it wasn't so easy to make bas- kets and shoot foul shots. lIt's a lot tougher going for the girls as far as rules are concerned than the boys-at least that's the girls' opinion.l Too. the birds were changed to all sorts of insects- bees . . . beetles . . . mosquitoes . . . locusts . . . wasps-a different kind for each of the fif- teen teams.

A. A. ruled out swimming as a basis for points since the non- resident girls often were unable to arrange their schedules to include the weekly trips to the Y, and planned to substitute indoor soccer. This game, a combination of the kicking of soccer and the base-running of baseball, is believed to have originated in Red Lion High, inasmuch as it pos- sesses no known relatives in the family of sports. With warm spring weather came that urge on the part of the girls for a little fresh air and out- door exercise before school terminated-and so to the softball field.

This does not end activity, however. The girls still have the summer sports to looklforward to during that glorious vacation, such as swimming, tennis, badminton, etc., and then back to school in September to begin some more rriuscle-building exercises. l l Through the Hoop Basketballs and boys filled the gym during the late fall weeks as candidates for the various squads qualified for positions. Then, on Decem- ber 9, the season got under way. The junior high boys started off by trouncing Mt. Wolf, Dallastown, and Spring Grove in suc- cession before they were defeated by Mt. Rose. Then they beat Dover and Dallastown, lost to West York, and got back on the winning path by topping their next two opponents, only to be stopped by Spring Grove. As the season pro- gressed, the team downed Dover, bowed to Mt. Rose, and ended the season with victories over West York and North York, placing third in the final tabulations of the league. The junior varsity had a full schedule as a member of the newly organized York County Scholastic Reserve League. They also got off on a three-game winning streak, before losing a heart-breaking 35-34 decision to New Oxford. In league competition during the year, Manchester, North York, Wrightsville, and Spring Grove were each upset twice by Coach Yost's boys. West York was the only league team which succeeded in topping the boys, marring Red Lion's record with two setbacks, which found the team hold- ing second place in the league at the end of the season.

They also got off to a flying start, being victorious over New Oxford, Dallastown, cmd Manchester. After the Spring Grove five handed them their first set- back, they rolled up wins over New Oxford and Dover. Next they lost to Wrightsville, whipped Dallastown, and were upset by West York. Then came a four-game winning streak over North York, Manchester, Spring Grove, and Dover. The Wrightsville and West York games found Red Lion on the short end of the score, but the final game was a thrilling overtime contest in which the Red Lion cagers played an exciting extra period to come out on top and take fourth place in league standings. And then there are the things that are rarely told . . . the time Mr. Yost took a nap after school and barely got to the game in time . . . when Lion-D Donald Norris got so excited in the Red allastown game that he forgot to count Stine's basket and caused quite a bit of confusion . . . when junior high manager Flinchbaugh put out an extra ball and the team had to go back to Mt.

In rain or shine, victory or defeat, these girls maintained the morale of the crowd as well as the team with their Are you ready? Let's go! Where did these pepper-uppers originate? Well, all over town in the early fall there were literally dozens of the younger generation shout- ing at the top of their lungs and gesticulating madly. The little girls spent lots of time imitating the cheerleaders in hopes that they would some day win a position on one of the teams. Shortly after school opened, one could see a group of girls who walked stiftly around school as if they were afraid of breaking. This is the usual hign that they have been trying out for cheerleading. The advanced cheerleaders helped to train the girls who went out for cheerleading, and m:.nor casualties have been known to occur as the doing room, Team eager trainees practice. One aspirant, her cheerleading homework in her living in a jump at the end of the cheer Fight Fight, hit the chandelier. After the colli- sion, one ot the lights resembled a jig-saw puzzle and three stitches were needed in the girl's finger. Of course, the teams provided the real interest at a game, but the panorama of flying arms and legs, whirling skirts, and the glimpses of gold and black as the cheerleaders dashed by, all added to the color and the gaiety of the game.

It's still more or less on trial, but opinion has it destined for permanency in the sports annals of R. L. H. S. Due to the many activities scheduled for one little gym, volleyball was held off until the end of basketball season--about the middle of Feb- ruozry. In the short time remaining, the coaches rushed to get a team ready to enter the District 3 P. il. A. A. volleyball tournament. The interest evidenced in volleyball, however, was great, as could be seen by the large number of hopefuls who turned out for the first session. The boys held practices almost every activity period and any other time when they could man- age to gain possession of the gym. The final screening for the squad was not accomplished until early March. There are still many things to be ironed out, since volleyball is in its infancy, but the fellows and coaches have been working toward one goal -perfection. Their Work hasn't been in vain, by any means. One indication of this is the fact that in scrimmage games with the state champion North York team last spring fR.

Buses Loaded Following closely on the heels of basketball and volleyball, comes that all-American sport, base- ball, as truly a sign of spring as the marble games by the big tree on Charles Street. Probably almost every boy, from the time he can hold a ball and bat, or the first time he tries on his dad's glove that is miles too big for him, has hopes of becoming another Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, or Walter Iohnson. By the time he progresses to the high school team, he knows it isn't going to be easy and there's plenty of competition.

That we are not alone in this opinion is evidenced by the fact that a couple of them signed big league contracts during the summer! The '49 season opened at Manchester early in April. Wayne Heim started the season in an im- pressive style by hitting a home run in the first inning. The joy was short-lived, however, and at the finish the Lions were on the short end of the score. Then came a turn in the other direction as the lads topped West York and York High in two very exciting games. These were followed by a third win, this time over North York, when Royer allowed the opposing team only six hits in roll- ing over them by a count of 8 to 0. From then on the season became an alternat- . - df. 1.44. f ing affair. Manchester again overcame Red Lion, this time by a rather close score. The next game was the second shutout of the season by the Lions, as they blanked Dover behind Thomas's two-hit pitching. West York then edged out Red Lion by a one-point margin. Getting back in the win column once more, Red Lion triumphed over Dover a second time. Ending the season at North York, the local boys lost another close game by one heart-breaking point. Thus, at the season's end, the Lions had a none too impressive record of five victories and four defeats, despite the fact that in runs they scored forty-nine against a total of forty-seven for the opposition. This indicates that it wasn't the fact that our boys couldn't produce the runs, they just didn't have enough of them at the right time! Un Your ark When spring rolls around, many an ambitious athletic-minded male makes the daily trek to the athletic field at the southwestern edge of town and begins working out for track. Usually this late afternoon session has several curious and interested spectators on hand. Coach Myers and his side kick, Mr. Beckley, handle the hopefuls who wish to test their skill in running, jumping, and weight throwing. The struggle which the boys go through is a tough one, and even though they start out with lots of vim and vigor they are sometimes tamed down by their continual exertions. A new drive is planned for this year: to have all football candidates report to track practice. The training they receive is sure to prove valu- able to them in their future football games, and it is altogether possible that a new track star may be found. All the boys have a very stren- l uous tiaining schedule-literally hundreds of starts and stops for the runners, innumerable broad and high jumps with their teeth-jarring landings: the sensation of soaring over isome- timesl the pit 'the bar, and then the awful let-down as seems to fly up to meet the jumper. Speaking of pits brings up the subject of those fellows who toil without glory-the managers. The coaches teach the jumpers how to fall, but the m nagers' continual labors to keep the pits in goo shape help considerably. Then there are the thr wn discus and shot puts to be retrieved, and the conveying of the pieces of equipment to the vaiious parts of the field in which they are used i a man-sized job. Com etition for the track team is a sort of t affair, and the hard work and takes a heavy toll on the number of track stars. After a careful weeding- I I out, those who are able to keep up the fast pace are the personnel of the team. The boys on the l949 Lion team participated in four meets. In the first of these, which was held at Ship- pensburg with twenty-three other schools partic- ipating, our team placed seventh. Thomas won first place in the broad jump with a jump of nine- teen feet, seven and one-half inches, while Gol- den placed third in the 880-yard run. Next, Delta eked out a three-point win over Red Lion in a dual meet. However, six of the nine events on the program were won by Red Lion. Golden took three Iirsts, Thomas two, and Murrow, one. Pitting their strength against North York, West York, Manchester, Dover, and Dallastown in the York County Track and Field Meet, the team took three first places. Golden won the 440 and 880-yard runs while Thomas captured first place honors in the broad jump, making it the third such event he won in three consecutive meets. In the final standings, Red Lion filled third place. The junior high boys, who were working out along with those from senior high, participated in this event also. They won the 440-yard relay and came in fifth with eight schools taking part. Also from junior high came the casualty of the season. One of the younger trcrckmen, Dean Norris, was lucky enough to get a ride to the field on a truck one evening. His luck soon changed, however, for when the wind blew his hat off his head, he jumped from the moving truck to get it and landed on his cranium, resulting in cr frac- tured skull. Winning second place honors in the 440-yard run and third in the 880-yard run, Golden placed for Red Lion at the Lancaster P. I. A. A. event bringing Red Lion's season to a close for 1949.

A. S. S., life isn't all peaches and cream. Many movies and dates must be sacrificed in order to abide by the rules. Too, in addition to those daily practice sessions and nu- merous games, he must have enough stamina and find enough time to take an active part in school life and, above all, to study. Brawn, you see, is not the sole requirement. One may have earned an athletic letter, but higher than aver- age marks for three previous semesters are also required. One member of the class of '50, Dale Kinard, was admitted to this group as a mere sophomore, while Charley Hartman, Bob Norris, and Gene Neff joined the ranks in their junior year. Two seniors and three underclassmen comprised the fortunate group of athletes called to the office this spring to be informed that they were now members of the N. A. S.

There are only a few extremists, the so-called grinds, in these categories, for the vast majority of students plan their day so that they have fun While they're learning. But going to school has its problems. For in- stance, at the mere mention of the Words con- versation or discussion, icy fingers seem to dance up and down the spines of some students Top left: Miss Keeports marks a report card while two more worried juniors w distributes books with a smile.

Theme Writing, a frequent oc- currence in history and science classes, as well as English and the foreign languages, occupies many hours ordinarily devoted to sleep. The fifty-five minutes spent in the various classes seem to vary: in one class the minutes tick away at a gay rate while the theme song of another may be Till the End of Time. When everyone is sitting fairly erect and paying atten- tion, Well and goody but it turtive conversations are being carried on, and some students are gaz- ing out the windows as it they're wondering it the rain will hurt the rhubarb . . . begin the music, maestro. Seriously though, everyone's mind wanders at times, and usually it isn't the teacher's fault. Often something unusual lto put it mildlyl oc- curs at intervals during the day, and brightens the outlook on class sessions considerably. These little incidents, usually humorous but sometimes the height of corn, provide an always Welcome bit of laugh-provoking humor. For example . . a senior gave an unusual twist to his book re- port, a War story, by limping realistically to the front of the room las the bell rang before he finished, the class didn't learn the name of the book till the next dayl . . . then there was Miss Myers' student who Wrote a theme on William Sydney Porter ending, He died in New York City. That is he settled down. We have several clubs which work into the classroom curriculum very well, one ot these, in the history and geography department, is the Stamp Club. Contrary to popular belief, its mem- bers are not a group of near-sighted stooges who walk around sporting magnifying glasses, they're I a grou in of boys and girls who take great plea- sure in collecting the various types of stamps, foreign Whil princip and otherwise. le everyone has a lot of fun at school, the lal purpose of spending six hours a day, . l . . five days a week, in the classroom 1S to learn. The knowledge one gains for practical usage more t han makes up for the number of hours spent acquiring it.

Yet, at a certain time each year several seniors and juniors are invited via the telephone to Mr. Kulp's sanctum sanctorum where they are informed that because they have maintained high standards of scholarship, lead- ership, character, and service, they have been elected members ot the National Honor Society. Last year the total number of juniors, now seniors, elected amounted to seven. By coincidence, seven juniors from the class of titty-one were elected this year and six new members from the senior class were also admitted, making a total ot twenty members. The chosen students have the pleasure of in- troducing rural students to our school on Orien- tation Day. One of these guides became so in- terested in his explanations in the shop that he quite forgot to take his charges to the scheduled movie, where those in charge were impatiently pacing the floor wondering how a student could get lost in his own school! This year, for the tirst time in the history of the school, the N. H. S. members took part in the nation-wide program to give high school stu- dents the opportunity to participate in the elec- tion ol great Americans to the Hall of Fame.

There have, however, been many pleasant surprises. The first happened when the French Merci Train came chugging in with a carload of books about France, one for every budding Frenchman. The students even had a course-in two annual installments-in home ec during French classes when Chef Miller pre- pared a very tasty salad and then passed out lozenges to smother the odor of garlic. And high- light three-two honest-to-goodness Frenchmen, Andre Yon and Max Delbarre, arrived on the scene and rapidly became good friends of the three French classes. Language used in conver- sation?-French, to be sure. Now the Latin students, caught at an earlier stage, concentrated on Roman background and mythology, with enough grammar to enable them to Write themes which even the Romans would understand. The Christmas season brought them a vacation from syntax and Caesar, when they sang carols and fashioned colorful Christmas cards-all in Latin, if you please.

This latter practice ne- cessitated a shopping tour to purchase the sun- dry itemsg with each box valued at two dollars, this was sometimes quite a problem. However, the tour-to-end-all-tours occurred last spring when the School Chest program was substituted for the gift boxes.

Those on duty leave for their posts a minute or two before the bell rings. Their job is to assure safe passing for anxious-to-get- to-class pedestrians. A new system of one-way traffic on the stairs-at first it seemed almost im- possible to go from one end of the building to another without plotting one's course with a com- pass-has eased congestion at the up and down spots to the point that the only improvement would be the installation of escalators. The out-of-doors counterpart of this group is Mr. Beckley's well-organized squad of appren- tice traffic directors, Who, regardless of Weather, I I l patrol their beats. Twenty-five in number, they provide protection at dangerous intersections for members of the younger generation land occa- sionalliy for some who like to think of themselves as the i older generationl. Direcf:ting traffic isn't always a pleasant job, even in fair weather, for hungry students don't exactly appreciate being stopped on the curb for safety's sake. But in foul weather-things are just twice as bad. The hungry students seem to be starving, and every time the patrolman turns his head a huge drop of rain hits his neck and rolls down his spine. Being late for lunch has its draw- backs, too, but being excused from study sort of evens the score. Top left: Bob Shenberger sees that traffic llows smoothly at that busy intersection near Room 7.

He'd reveal how the entire Hilltop staff began their Writing career in a frosh or sophomore jour- nalism class. They studied, Wrote and re-Wrote, until articles seemed to come out of their ears. lPerhaps some wish this would still happenll When a striving Writer finally had an article printed, he was proud as punch, it spurred him on to write more and better articles.

They X ere just as lmportant as the heads of the staff but their duties differed.

The annual dance was just a minor part of real journalism, howeverg the major part was putting out a monthly paper, which had its own special brand of headaches. For example, let's trace the life of a news article. When Smitty got wind of some news land she had avknack for itl, she assigned the article, with the due date very much in evidence, to one of her staff. Oh, that due date! It seemed to have a habit of creeping up on the unsuspecting writer, with no respect to his or her position. While the Winged moments became hours and days, the poor writer Wracked his brain for something lively and original. Meanwhile to the editors. who were racing against their own deadline, it seemed the reporter was exerting himself to give them a hard time. It was the same story in the feature depart- ment. Those masterpieces were nightmares of another color! Their authors, who either had to fabricate their stories, or make something screamingly funny out of some dead-pan infor- mation, were as harassed as the news writers. However, through a well organized staff, a typing class that transformed the childlike scrib- blings into legible articles, and the helpful ad- vice of Miss Farlling, the deadlines were met. Nevertheless, many were the times the senior editors worked into the wee hours of the morn- ing making up the dummy land an issue is on record as being delivered by the printer to the anxious editor at midnightl.

The Christmas Dance on December l7 was the seniors' special contribution to the holiday sea- son. They gave the gym an entirely new idea of dress and provided a hilarious recollection of some one-time musical ambitions . . . offered the best possible music for the dancers-our own R. ll.. H. S. dance band . . . and climaxed the program by having everyone present join in the singing of carols. Classes too adopted the holiday spirit by adapting Christmas ideas to usual procedure -poems, themes, etc. At intervals for weeks carols in Latin and French drifted through the keyholes from the language classes. Students doing research in the library paused to enjoy the beautiful tree decorated by the library club members. Christmas really was everywhere in R. L. H. S. The last day before vacation was marked by the exchange of gifts in the home rooms, the tear- ing down of decorations, a slightly altered class schedule, and the annual Christmas assembly, the theme of which was based on the celebration of Christmas in the various parts of the U. S. Then shortly before the usual dismissal time, books and such were parked in the desks and out the door streamed several hundred free souls . . . vacationers until reporting time on Ianu- ary 3, 1950.

Book Worms' Paradise Speaking of Christmas . . . the members of the Library Club made an extra effort to dress their stamping ground in Christmas trappings, and it was well Worth the exertion, judging from the acclaim of everyone who entered the library during the holiday season. These twenty-six girls, headed by Miss Skinner, accomplished many fine things during the year. They studied the proper methods of cataloguing books, what is found in the three hundred A's, and other necessities of a smooth-running library. Weekly displays were the responsibility of the club members, as Well as the bulletin board oppositre the library. Besides knowing the functions of the library, these came giln for help when they were behind the desk, But lib numbe irls were instructors to the students Who a regular information please at times. rary work is fun as can be seen by the r of girls who, year by year, give up many extra study periods to put cards in books, stamp dates, or sit at the proctor's desk and sign their Iohn Henry on the passes of people going in and out of the library.

The pint-sized office is under the alternate reign of Miss Farlling and Mr. Nitchkey, except when they are dispossessed because of physical exams. Visitors here range from bewildered freshmen to sophisticated seniors, or vice versa. To help these struggling students, various tests, so mis- takenly called tea parties by the majority of teachers, are given. Preference, I. Q., and diag- nostic tests determine in what field they are most interested, and for which they are best qualified. The lighter side of guidance is Orientation Day, when prospective freshmen visit R. L. H. S. for a day. At this time, the question always arises as to who feel more like monkeys-the students being viewed by their guests, or the visitors who are stared at by the students. But a lunch in the school cafeteria, a special issue of the Hilltop, and a tour of the school, directed by the Honor Society students fwho have tearfully left their classesl, help to make the hopefuls feel at ease.

Bottom right: A halt is called in the chem lab where the dis- tillation process is explained. oi' ln the Entertainment Field The majority of people, at one time or another in their lives, have wanted to be actors or actresses, and the students at Red Lion do not differ in that respect, There is something intangible about the stage that attracts them by the dozens. Whether it be a simple assembly play or an elaborately arranged performance at the Municipal Building, the aspiring stars enact their roles with an en- thusiasm that is a joy to behold. And who needs to be reminded of that common actors' rnalady -stage fright! Waiting in the wings for his entrance cue, a student is completely fwell almostl himself. But the moment he steps onto the stage, he is trans- formed into anything from a school brat to a dashing movie star or an elderly criminal. Any- one who attends one of the many plays pre- sented by the students of R. L. H. S, may sit tensely through a mystery, cry during a tragedy, or have his funny bone tickled by a comedy. Whichever type it is, the onlookers always seem to marvel at the changes wrought on the actors, when they are on stage. The Dramatic Club has been a very useful aid in perfecting the Romeos and Iuliets who present these erformances by giving them helpful hints for the stage. In this club's Thursday morning anything was apt to happen-from P' sessions, a mock ating quite b seball games and charades to imperson- movie stars. These impersonations caused an riot. All a certain male needed to be com- pletely transformed was a skirt. He would have made any girl envious, even the movie star whom he was impersonating. It seems he caused quite stage a howl when he went tripping across the with his trouser legs rolled up, saying in a convincingly feminine voice, Where is that II'l.G1'1 with the horn?

To celebrate their achievements of the year, the members planned a banquet complete with speeches, toastmaster. ancl all the trimmings. A public event heldi at the Municipal Building, which gave the kids from kindergarten to twelfth grade a chance to show off their acting ability, was the Welfare Program. The theme used was Our America, a story of life in America, with music that was played and sung by the people as our country grew. Responsible for the construction of stage scen- ery was the stage crew, just as important to a performance as the actors themselves. Getting a window at just the proper angle to please an exacting director . . . trying to conceal the cra-:ks in the Wall . . . bracing the doors so that a slam, rehearsed or otherwise, wouldn't cause a minor earthquake in the adjoining flats . . . that it was a hard life would be a gross under- statement. Nevertheless, the boys were always Willing to sacrifice several evenings of their time to do odd jobs backstage during a play. Of course, getting to see the plays free for nothin' wouldn't have had anything to do with their eagerness to help! All kidding aside, a play just wouldn't be a play without the appropriate scenery such as secret panels, stairs, French doors, and many other complicated matters. Incidentally, the gang had so many Wires fastened to these contrap- tions that wandering backstage in the dark was a quick Way to end it all. Iust ask the juniors, they speak from experience. They also know what it feels like to be wondering whether the scenery will stay in place or if it will come crash- ing down about them without warning. But thanks to the stage crew, no accidents happened.

Fixil Fixes Fixes Everything was running smoothly at the Munic- ipal Building, November 19. The actors were doing a good job on stage and the committees backstage were cool and collected. Were? Yes, until one of the French doors unlatched and swung open ot its own accord. A quick thinker said, Fix it, and fixed it was by a member of the corporation backstage. Thus, the cast from the class of '50, unmindful of the incident, con- tinued Fixit, to present their dramatic production, Incorporated. In this masterpiece two young college men, Dave wards Thompson lB. Meadsl and Froggy Ed- lG. Cooperl, with their secretary, Alice Gray ID.

Rostl -and considered it all in a da'y's work. For weeks before the performance, the cast had many sessions in the auditorium with the directors, Miss Farlling and Mr. Baldwin. Often the thespians missed their evening meal as they practiced into the twilight hours. Nevertheless, between entrances they consumed enormous quantities of hamburgers, ham sandwiches, po- tato chips, and even cake and coffee. Room to room canvassing to promote ticket sales, unique posters placed in strategic spots around town, artful make-up, different scenery, and some odd properties all helped make the three-act play a success for three successive nights. Thrills Galore The junior play reading committee Wanted to present a truly different play on February twenty- fourth, twenty-fifth, and twenty-sixth, and differ- ent it was! The High School Mystery, a novel mystery comedy drama, was really a play within a play and what was most astonishing, voices came from the audience as well as from the characters on stage. Characters-what an understatement! During a dress rehearsal, a secret panel opened and a supposedly dead man fell headlong into the room. Paul Runkle, unaware of the incident, popped up with the line Someone must have come Wonder what gave him the first clue? Wh n the curtain went up on the first act, a junior class group was rehearsing its play, a mystery called The House of Terror, but the rehearsal was turned into a real mystery when Laura, the leading lady fYvonne Taylorl, was warned by a strange voice to give up her part in the play or else.

But these fright- ening incidents were just the beginning, a kid- napping and a murder that almost happened followed in rapid succession. The suspense which held the audience spellbound was broken only by :sprinklings of comedy. The cast put on a thrilling performance and was rewarded when the audience emitted screams of horror. excitement, and laughter. Pity the person with a weak ticker! Mary Taylor, act- ing her part as Miss leffries, was seated in the audience. During the second act she was to scream, and scream she did! Said a breathless Miss Farlling, seated in front of Mary, I'l1 never isis be the same. As the play entered the final act, the audience was expecting but not ready for anything to happen. With the drama coach and her assistant spending much of their time in the audience, the author, the sheriff CCharles Hessl, and an irate mother fFayne Elsesserl, appearing from the rear of the auditorium, and with various sound effects fincluding the laugh of a crazy manl com- ing from the same place, the onlookers spent almost as much time looking back as they did looking at the stage. The well executed storm effects helped to set an eerie atmosphere, and the cast took it from there. N Friday Diversions Everyone enjoys assemblies, whether in the school auditorium or the local Municipal Build- ing. But for the timid souls who suffered stage fright While making their debuts in the world of make-believe, they sometimes were a bit on the nerve-wracking side. The special seasonal programs during the year were the Easter and Christmas programs. In the Christmas assembly the students at R. L. H. S. learned how Christmas is celebrated in various parts of the United States. Then, at Easter time, in place of fantastic stories of hopping bunnies and colored eggs, minds were turned to a more serious channel by a religious play, For He Had Great Possessions. An assembly held at the Municipal Building is considered a special treat. Iudging by the elated expressions on the faces of several hundred pupils, motorists patiently waiting at the inter- section of Charles Street and West Broadway for several of them to pass, may get the impression that a day's vacation has been declared. Confi- dentially, the guys and girls go down faster than they Walk back, and it isn't only because the hill is steep! The students journeying to the Municipal Build- ing this year were entertained by a variety of programs including the Iuniata College Choir, an accordion trio, Hal Rodman, the make-up artist, and last but certainly not least, the table tennis emonstration given by two champs one d . . I I a Canadian, the other an American. Two local boys, Duane Swartzbaugh and Let Snyder, were chosen to match their skill with that of the champs. The professionals proved to be some- what fast but the prodigies put up a good fight. Actors in a different sense of the word were the members of the Magic Club. That old proverb, The hand is quicker than the eye, was con- tinually proven to them by Mr. Miller. He has many tricks up his sleeve and did a good job of dumping them into the sleeves of his large group of eager magic-cans. Eager? You bet, always eager to play a trick on someone.

The Musical llrge Every year the directors of the many musical groups around school get together and plan their numbers for the Night of Music. From then on, Miss Spangler, Mrs. Adams, and Mr. Surplus drill their performers, for perfection is the key-note as these organizations collaborate to present 'the best possible musical production. Like all the other programs, the Night of Music requires a stage crew, and the students are al- ways more than willing to miss a study period to transport the chairs, the risers, the many music stands, and the music itself to the Municipal Building. The fellows consider themselves lucky if a few sheets of the latter don't go sailing away on the April winds. The musicians, especially the tympani and bass horn players, have their own little problem-that of getting their instruments to the many rehearsals and the two performances. The program this year included band numbers ranging from the overture to the comic opera Das Pensionat to several hits from South Pacific, Ye Peo Train. School taking Mater, 1 1 and chorus numbers such as OnWard! ples, Alice Blue Gown, and De Gospel The band, the glee clubs, and the Grade Choir, as well as several senior soloists their last fling for the glory of their Alma capably took their turn in the spotlight, then showed their versatility by joining to pre- sent the finale fthis year a Fred Waring arrange- ment of Onward Christian Soldiers l-a num- ber by ihe combined choruses, accompanied by the baifd, to which both the performers and au- diences: look forward from year to year. 1 The Girls' Chorus takes its turn in the spotlight fat the Night of Music. I 1 I 1 l Wiilh Fiddle und llorn But much more goes into the Night of Music, or any -other production for that matter, than meets the eyes of the audience. How many teachers have heard this familiar refrain during the year: Are we having a test today? O. K., l'll go to in- strumental class. ? And what classes these are! We won't say how good or bad the music sounds. For that information, ask Miss Keeports or Mr. Frits, to say nothing of Mr. Myers, who love to listen to the odd sounds which frequently come forth from 8B. Football season found these musicians work- ing harder than ever, though they had their fun, too. Competition with other bands . . . bus rides to and from away games . . . the added trim of mustard streaks on uniforms lespecially the white togs of the majorettesi . . . Alta's spec- tacular twin-baton routines . . . these are just a few of the many sidelights which kept the band members stepping high, wide, and handsome. The instrumentalists, however, had no oppor- tunity to lie down on the job when football sea- son ended. Announcements appeared in all home rooms informing members of the forthcom- ing practices for junior and senior plays, York County Music Festival, school dances fthe dance band members, bless their hearts, sacrificed Thursday date nights to get together for practice in 8Bl, various assemblies, Welfare Program, and other activities. It is said that music soothes the savage breast, and soothe it must, for if it didn't the band and orchestra members land Mr. Surplusl could never stand the strain of the constant rehearsals.

Three mornings every week several choral groups of our alma mater hold sessions in various parts of the building. It a great volume of music is heard coming from an unexpected quarter there is a good chance that part of the boys' Music Club is prac- ticing there. The response to the call for boys who Wanted to sing purely for the joy of singing was so great that for several weeks the group met in the gym. Eventually that studio was surrendered to the athletic element. Mr. Myers had to separate the club into junior and senior high groups because no single room was large enough for their weekly practice session. Not to be outdone by the boys, several of the girls formed their special group and called them- selves the Vocalettes. Club morning found-them working hard in room 101, practicing songs, popular and otherwise, for a dance, play, or assembly program. The groups meeting in the auditorium had their trials and tribulations too, especially when some- one forgot to have the blower turned oft. Its racket held up the practice for a few minutes, and just as Mrs. Adams would begin to make with the down beat, a late comer would com- pletely disrupt things by walking all over every- one as he crawled to his seat, perhaps knocking down numerous sheets of music on the Way. However, the choruses did have many minutes, even full periods, of uninterrupted rehearsal, and as tribute to the quality of the sounds issuing from the auditorium passers-by were apt to stop and listen. What may not have been completely understood by the spectators were the motions accompanying the usual lesson in breathing. Yet these exercises, along with many others in the day's work, proved to be worthwhile, for the end results of all the periods of practice were nothing less than beautiful. And down in the distant corner known as 8B. the junior high songsters held forth in their own glee club. Regularly every Monday morning, this group provided the musical atmosphere for the south end of the building.
