Let us not medi- tate upon the bewilderment of this world but upon joyful memories. But come, let us not linger with the time spent in grade school: let us climb the stairs to high school. In the first year of high school, Mr. Bright was our first male faculty advisor. With his cheerful guidance and kindly advice we gradually became accustomed to the changes which high school brought. That year we demonstrated our dramatic ability by presenting a minstrel show to the student body in the auditorium of our own school. We were so pleased with the success of the minstrel program that we later presented it to the student body of Wilson High School. Our social activity that year was a hallowe'en party held in the school auditorium where we played games and had a jolly time. The Class officers for seventh grade were: President-George Slater, Vice President- Kenneth Sallade, Secretary-Evelyn Weidman. Our faculty advisor for the second year of Iunior High School was Mrs. Lambert, who was to be our advisor for three additional years. Our social affair for that year was again a hallowe'en party held in Ruth's barn, which we attended dressed in ghostly garbs of every description. We all enjoyed the party and called it a success. The Class officers in eighth grade were: President-Kenneth Sallade, Vice President- Robert Dunkleberger, Secretary-Evelyn Weidman. In our Freshman year Miss Schwenk took over the supervision of our class which, to say the least, was no easy task for a new teacher! That year we took advantage of our new social privileges by having a doggie roast. This event took place at Lambert's bungalow in the Blue Mountains, which was to be our special site used for doggie roasts in the years to follow. The Class officers for our Freshman year were: President-James Matthews, Vice Presi- dent-Calvin Klopp, Secretary-Evelyn Weidman. Mrs. Lambert again was our faculty advisor in our Sophomore year. That year we began distinguishing ourselves as members of the Senior High School. We opened the year with the selection of our Class officers, which were: President-Arthur Swiemler, Vice President-Frederick Lambert, Secretary-Evelyn Weidman. We took the important step of choosing our class colors which, after much opposition, turned out to e Navy Blue and Gold. In addition we selected our class flower, the Gardenia. That year, too, we chose our class rings. Because of the war priorities and only after much agitation. our rings arrived in December. Our social activity for the year was a doggie roast held at Egelman's Park. In our Iunior year Mrs. Lambert again became our faculty advisor. Officers for the year Twenty-four t were: President-George Gerhard, Vice President-Calvin Klopp, Secretary-Lucille Allen. Our first social affair was a doggie roast which was held at Egelman's Park. Next came our first dance. We called it the Liberty Frolic . The main feature of this dance was the grand prize of a war bond. We made a profit of 577.00 at this dance, a fitting reward for all of our hard work. Our April Showers Hop sponsored in April was another huge success. An additional doggie roast concluding our social affairs for that year was held at Lam- bert's bungalow. With these happy memories we departed from our Iunior Year with many plans for our final year. We began our Senior year under the advisorship of Mrs. Lambert. On the first day of school we elected our officers. Officers for the year were: President-George Gerhard, Vice President-Calvin Klopp, Secretary-Lucille Allen. Immediately we turned to class activities. Planning for a doggie roast and a dance were our first objectives. We completed plan for our doggie roast and, on September 15 again held a doggie roast at Lambert's bungalow. After much confusion and turmoil we presented our dance entitled Witches Struggle . The dance in honor of Hallowe'en had a satisfactory outcome. A hayride in October was our next social affair. It proved to be lots of fun for the small percentage of the class who attended the function. On Ianuary 24th, we sponsored a dance which was called the Victory live of '45 . Once again Iimmy Eaton's Orchestra answered the requests of lovers of jive, rhythm and sweet music. In September we started plans for our yearbook, the IMAGO. This was the greatest undertaking in our entire class history. We engaged the Ramere Studio for our photography, scouted around for ideas, and bristled proudly with our new responsibility. With Mrs. Lam- bert, Miss Glase, and Miss Reichenbach as our advisors we completed all the working, slaving, planning, collecting of ads, and a thousand other necessary jobs. IMAGO '45 hit the press in February. April 20th marked the memorable date of our last dance. Iimmy Eaton's Orchestra again claimed the limelight for the auspicious occasion. We smiled faintly, almost tearfully, as we moved about the floor of our last class dance. We are coming to the end of a grand and glorious senior year. Baccalaureate services are being held in the Reformed Church on May 27th. Class Night is another important activity for the month of May. And now, last but not least, Commence- ment is scheduled for May 29th. Many of our classmates eagerly anticipate the day of Commencement. Although it is the ending of all our activities as a group, we have shared many experiences and perplex- ing problems. Our hearts will hold dear to us, many incidents of our school career. Over and above all this, our greatest enjoyment has been the true comradeship which results from many years of working, playing, and planning together. Then here's a toast to our own Commencement, the end of all and yet the beginning of all. Twenty-five Tl-lE CLASS WILL We, the Seniors of the Sinking Spring High School, being in as sound mind and body as can be expected, as a result of the schedule so rigidly followed leave this, our first, last, and only Will and Testament. First, to the Faculty we leave: To Miss Bucher we leave a library that will be free from Senior studies . To Miss Deturck we leave some headache pills to take after every Iunior Algebra Class.

To Mrs. Lambert we will enough Wool and needles to make a sweater for all the Armed Forces. To Miss Larkin we leave a lunch box instead of her market basket . To Mrs. Pate we will two boxes of soap erasers for her mechanical drawing class. To Miss Reichenbach we leave a group of good typists for the coming year. To Mr. Steckel we bequeath a quiet and attentive P.D. Class. To Miss Yost we reminiscently leave a case of Pepsi-Cola. Second, to the Iuniors we leave: Four Senior activities, Our best wishes for their Senior year. Third, to the entire student body we leave: Our straight lines in the hall, As happy a school lite as we have had.

Class of 1945 CSEALJ Twenty-six CLASS PROPHECY In the grand and glorious year of 1960, we were meandering down the street in our old home town, Sinking Spring. Nostalgically we remembered old places where some had worked and others had lived. We spied the old Post Office: but what is that new, large building on the other side of the street? Lo and behold, Sinking Spring has a new Post Office! And look! there is Ken Sallade gazing contentedly at the Post Master General sign on the door of his comfortable office. We kept on walking only to find Sinky quite different than we had remembered it. Why. here were new faces and new buildings. Sinky was a good deal larger and much improved. We saw a large garage whose owner, we discovered, was Norman Gaul. We found Norman still talking about his experiences in the Army. In addition, he told us about the other mem- bers in that auspicious class of 1945 and discussed plans for a reunion of our class. Harold Miller, being a florist, certainly will supply the flowers for the occasion. The next move was to get in touch with the remainder of the class. Ah! there is Louise Bickel, now private secretary in a large firm. Louise will be able to discover all the par- ticulars concerning the other class members. With the able help of Doris Sullivan and Corinne Ferriman, both of whom are secretaries in largelaw firms in New York, the task was made a b it easier. Doris was in contact with Miriam Rollman, who was serving humanity as a teacher in a school in western Pennsylvania. Miriam was in turn in contact with Virginia Powers, who is following the career of school marm in Pittsburgh. Look over there! Is that a hospital? Could it be true? At last a dream had come true: Sinky has a lovely new hospital. Our curiosity was immediately aroused. Knowing that Dolores Leiby and Charlyne Lagerquist were interested in nursing, we went to inquire about both of them. Believe it or not, they were the ones who had established the hospital. To our great surprise, who should come out of a room but Dotty Sweimler, also in the stiff and starched uniform of a nurse. While we discussed the idea of a reunion, Dotty told us about Shirley Stoudt's Beauty Shop. Twvn fy-m'w'11 CLASS PRGPHECY - Continued lt was not a long walk to Shirley's establishment and would not take long. Much to our amazement, on the way we met Forrest Zechman and Fritz Lambert. Forrest had remained in the Army when the war was over and Fritz was a well-seasoned sailor. Both of them had a few days at home. The boys on furloughs made us decide that if we were going to have a reunion, we must have it soon. The fellows liked the idea very much and declared their willingness to cooperate to the fullest extent. Finally after sometime we arrive at Shirley's and found her busily involved in giving a shampoo. While we were waiting to chat with her, we picked up the paper. Looking over the paper, we found Calvin Klopp starring as Scrooge in a Broadway production of Dickens' great play. Think of it! An actor born from the class of '45. Listen! is that the phone ringing? Shirley, answer it quickly. It may be some in- formation about the reunion. Shirley, in her humorous way. exclaimed that it was Louise calling to let us know that George Gerhard and Harold Emerich, our Marine heroes, are home for a short leave. With this good news as an impetus we really began to work. By this time Lucille Allen had heard of our plans and volunteered the welcome informa- tion that it was convenient for her and her family to have our class gathering at her home. What did we forget? Oh yes! the food! Where could we get that? Bruce Kramer, of course! He has that new big grocery store and butcher shop. At once we sent our order Cand it was some orderll to Bruce to be made out. At last, our plans for the reunion were completed. A few days later the class of '45 met to hold the wonderful reunion to which we had looked forward with so much expectation. The class of '45 was reunited: Twenty-eight 61515555 IUNIGR CLASS This is the class of '46. It has an enrollment of 21 grand boys and girls. In their first privileged year for class activities they have been very successful. On December 7, 1944 the class held their first dance. Snow Frolic , a huge success. Another dance entitled Enamon Dance enlarged the Iunior bank account as well as sustained their reputation as clever decorators. Shrubbery Hill , their class play, held on March 23, completed the list of successful Iunior activities. Iuniors, we are glad to extend to you our sincerest wishes for a happy Senior year.

In the beginning of the school year the class held a doggy roast at Egelman's Park and a farewell party for Mervin Sweigart who left for the Merchant Marines. Two students of the class,-Paul Levan and Donald Sweimler, participated in the All County orchestra. On March 9th the class in conjunction with the Sth grade held a Fun Night. Games, dancing and refreshments provided the means for financial success. Main efforts of the class went toward the presentation of their first play. The Miracle on April 26th, 1945, was a huge success. We know this class will keep up its good work in the coming years and We wish them great success. OFFICERS President .,.... Secretary ,....,...

Presented to assembly, the song proclaimed the joys and pains derived from this great class. However, the year, which started out with a rip-roaring doggie roast and will end with their graduation from Iunior High School, has held more joy than trouble for all of them. The freshman class has an abundance of musical talents, many of them play in the school orchestra. Having given some thought to the more serious side of life, they are proud of the thousand dollars they have spent for war bonds. Even more proudly they hold their heads because they have been the first to pledge some of their pocket money for feeding Chinese War Orphans. A good reason to be filled with pride! Class of 1948, we Seniors salute a class with such initiative and wish you continued success and happiness throughout your school years.

Thirty-two high school girls actually beca me a part of this club and the world wide organ- ization which it represents when they repeated the Girl Reserve code and pledged before a candle lighted altar as part of an inspiring and impressive service in St. Iohn's Reformed Church. At weekly meetings club members have been studying personality, charm, and per- sonal relationships, guided by several interesting speakers. Their new knowledge was put to use in the club's social activities, parties, doggie roasts, and a Leap Year Dance to which the girls escorted the boys: entertaining them all evening, even to the point of presenting them with vegetable corsages.

Bring a Torch, Ieanette Isabelle and The Coventry Caro1 bring memories of echoing carols through the halls. A front stage as well as a backstage chorus provided the musical background for Dickens' Christmas Carol. In keeping with the holiday spirit we had a gay party at the home of our secretary. In the spring six of the girls blended their voices with the All County Chorus for the Alvin F. Kemp Night of Music. We are proud that We could be represented in this select group.

Under the new leadership of Mr. Sharman, a much larger repertoire of selections has been attained. Many new faces are seen in the orchestra, as well as a larger variety of instruments. The innovation of instru mental classes has been largely responsible for the strides in membership. A band concert scheduled for April 13th was the first of its type to be held over a long period of years. School Band Director ....

They put on a great fight especially at Birds boro. Great things are expected of Roy Weinhold, who probably will be a varsity player next year. With the graduation of the Class of '45, the team will lose one of its players Harold Emerich. Good luck to you, boys, in the coming year.
