True education is hardly possible in a country where the press is censured or the printed material is con- trolled by the government. In a democ- racy it is a matter of free speech and free clear thinking. The world needs men who can think for themselves, grasp the infinite plan of things, and then act courageously. For free clear think- ing we need Democracy. For democracy we need clear free thinking. Here there is the opportunity for every person to make the most of his a- bility. Under other forms of government there is usually a ruling caste, and the individual is hedged about by arbitrary laws which unnecessarily restrict his freedom and education. The system of education that the United States has de- veloped tends toward democracy,for it is certainly true that we keep together in our schools a larger proportion of boys and girls from all classes than does any large dictatorship. Today in the public high schools of the United States and Canada, more boys and girls are enrolled than in all schools of similar grade in all other countries combined. This indeed tends for democracy es- pecially if, as it is said, the strong conquer the weak and the wise conquer the strong. Other governments have flourished only to decay. Will ours follow the same course? Hardly. For all earlier civilizations rested on some form of slavery Or class- rule. At no previous' time in the history of the world was the great mass of people so well informed as is the United States today through its educational systems. Always a ruling class abused its power and led the people into degeneracy. Then a stronger,more intelligent people found it easy to conquer the weaklings. But now let us turn it around, A true democracy can exist ony where there is true education. No democracy can be- come greater than the people who make up the majority. Great statemen may point out the right path, but, if the majority is not sufficiently intelligent to follow the wise leaders, then there is little hope of progress. What must we do then to prepare ourselves for intelligent citizenship in this complex society of ours? First, I6 must be educated about the problems of our own times. Second, we must learn to think straight. And third, we must be educated along the newest lines of thought and acquire those habits which will make it possible for us to make some contribution to the advancement of democracy. The principal reason, in a democ- racy, for the existence of the govern- ment is the welfare of the individual. In an attempt to promote his own welfare by opening up larger opportunities or increasing his income, the individual must value education very highly. With better education of the masses comes the desire for and the attainment of higher standards of living. If democracy puts enough strength and stress on defending itself through educational means, defense by arms may never be necessary. -Q tease, sm BOARD OF EDUCATION Francis D.

The station was far from definite, for many of us were not sure just how far along the road our tickets would take us, or how well we could accomplish what such a trip would naturally demand. With our chins up we stepped then, as we do now, into a new life, some to succeed, some to medioc- rity, others to dismal failure. We checked our tickets, reserva- tions, and baggage. We walked from car to car, making new friends as we went, making friendships that today bring back fleeting memories of that great day. At first we thought we were rather HSwellW, but it wasn't long before the uppenclmm men looked down their noses at us and promptly proceeded to put us in our places. Bewildered and somewhat frightened we entered the main car, thinking that here we might regain some of our lost courage. However, all our hopes were rudely shattered when we were separated from our new acquaintances--some going into the academic car, the general car, and the commercial car. At first the conductors were really very accommodat- possible to make what a change of ing, doing everything us comfortable. But scenery when we passed through the dark and tiresome tunnel of Uhomework and ex- amsn! And what a difference when the teachers really got to know us!! The trip wasn't any tgp comfortable then. After stopping once or twice at little stations on the way to pick up a few additional passengers, we gathered more speed, and gradually we could see vacation time coming closer and closer. Thus endeth the first year,with the H1959 Expressn looking a great deal more concerned and a little more inudli- gent. Soon September rolled around, when once more we boarded the WExpressN, a just-as-noisy, a slightly wiser, and non-egotistical group. Many of the pass- engers lost their tickets, many, their ambitions, and some, both. This year the new Wgreen-hornsn re- ceived all the attention since we were supposed to be able to look after our- selves and them also. However, it wasn't long before we were thoroughly adjusted to high school life and were eager to take part in the school activities. Our more literally minded students turned their attention to the car of journalism, and before long secured per- manent positions on the Slate. The staff of this publication included such famil- iar names as: Evelyn Evans, Margaret Collins, Paul Smith, Thelma J. Jones, Louise Kleintop, James Snyder,Carl Osen- bach, Margaret Hamm, Ernest Roberts, El- eanor Snyder, Phyllis Roberts, Annabelle Snyder, Roy Moyer, Fern Roth, Muriel Roberts, Rachel Bowman, Elanor Dilliard, Vincent Burke, Leonard Williams, Ezta Kreiss, Alvin Creitz, Earl Acker, and June Mack, with Anne Smith as associate editor. Football, still a new sport to our school, first caught the attention of our more active boys. Among our foot- ball heros were: James Snyder, Donald Wotring, Paul Smith, Ray Mantz, Norwood Hankpe, Ernest Roberts, Harland Remaley, Francis Weinman, Gerald Best, Homer Moy- er, and Norwood Mack. r And as the referee blew the whistle the UExpressN rolled on toward the mid- year exams. Excuse us, please, while we pause to pick up the coaches that left the track ...... Well, I'm back again, and glad to say, NNo serious accidents--for a while at least.n With the mid-years over we were well on the way to the close of our bas- ketball season. Here, as in the other activities, we were fortunate enough to have many of our boys and girls on the court. Those deserving of mention were: Fern Roth, Anne Smith, Evelyn Evans, E1- eanor Dilliard, Annabelle Snyder, Evelyn Williams, James Snyder, Leonard Winiamsg Marvin Friebolin, Homer Moyer, an Allen Coffin. The remainder of the year was un- eventful for the sophomores with the ex- ception of the senior dances, baseball team, gym clubs, and the organization of the high school band. The nExpressH slowed up long enough for Henry Henritzy to patch up a few quarrels with his be- loved Nancy, and let Clair Mantz dis- courage a few of the girls' admiring glances. But we had to hurry for the bell was ringing loudly and more loudly. We had safely reached the close of an- other year with the noisiest, best-na- tured, and' most fun-loving group of passengers that ever boarded any train. Again history repeats itself. A large number of us returned to school realizing that our school days were gradually coming to an end,and beginning to wish that it were just our freshman instead of our junior year. However, we soon got accustomed to the new inter- est shown in us as a class, and we de- cided to make the best of it. Large numbers of the class partici- pated in both activities and in sports. Our debating team won honors on numerous occasions, while many of us were pnnd of our share in the production of the chor- us operetta and Christmas Carol Service. On December 7th and 8th the dedi- cation of Smith Hall marked another im- portant event in the history of the class. we were proud of the beautiful construction, and so we were proud to have participating in the ceremonies a member of our class, Anne Smith, daugh- ter of the late Norman E. Smith,in whose honor the new building was named. Our class play, nThe Tin Heron,pro- vided real enjoyment for everybody, and everyone--director, cast, stage hands, and press agents--received his share of praise for the finished performance. At our first class meeting, con- ducted under the supervision of Mr.Hart- man, the following class officers were elected: Donald Roderick, president, Leonard Williams, vice president, Anna- belle Snyder, treasurer, and June Mack, secretary. The class also selected beautiful emblems, penants, and caps in the class colors of navy blue and gold. With commencement week, came two of our most eagerly awaited events, Ju- nior Declamation Contest and the Junior Prom. A large group of friends and rel- atives gathered in the auditorium to see and hear five girls and five boys try for honors in this contest. Anne Smith and Roy Moyer won first honors, June Mack and Leonard Williams placed second, with Eleanor Dilliard and Donald Roder- ick as third. Honorable mention went to Margaret Collins, Thelma J. Jones, Earl Souerwine, and Kenneth Christman. Then the night that the juniors had been waiting for all year arrived-- the Junior Prom. Early in the evening we enjoyed a delicious dinner served at the Reformed Church. At 8:00 we depart- ed for Smith Hall and passed a delight- ful evening dancing with our guests, Um graduating class of '58, It was all a hard pull on the UExpressU, and by this time we were all glad for the summer vacation. During the summer of l958, the 'Great Master' of our School of Life' called from our roll William J. Reitz. His vacant seat brings back loving mamm- ies of shy,well-mannered, and fun-loving HBillieV. It was a more confident 'SQ whonade their appearance this fall, filling that mighty train from engine to caboose. We were a little slow getting started, that is, all except Earl Acker, for Earl had more girls in the first week of school than Clair Mantz had in his whole four years--and I must say, it takes a great deal of hurrying to beat Clair. Sports again brought the school closer together with the mighty chorwms of NBeat Palmertonn. Our football heros were equally matched, showing their real athletic ability in their wonderful per- formance in the annual Thanksgiving game with Palmerton High. Williams and Coffin were outstanding on the basketball court with excellent cooperation from Moyer and Friebolin. Norwood Mack was the hero of the baseball team, with numerous winnings both in ball and romance. Heref too, we had outstanding team-work from Henry Henritzy, Thomas Binder,Roy Henry, Marvin Friebolin, Leonard Williams, Francis Weinman, Homer Moyer, Allen Coffin, and Gerald Best. Although many of our class partici- pated in the band and orchestra, the class had a musical organization all its own with Donald Roderick playing excell- ent second fiddle to a certain senior asa- 595 girl, Earl Acker supplying the noise, and the senior 'AlleyeCats', consisting of Roy Henry, Ray Mantz. Charles Fisher, Robert Scuerwine, and Kenneth Christman, providing the vocal strains--strains on the students' ears and Mr. Leidich's nerves. The nExpressN traveled rapidly, stopping long enough, however, for the seniors to show their dramatic ability in their annual senior class play en- titled nHere Comes Patriciau. The per- formance was pronounced a tremendous success by the public, this, too, was an- 2 other achievement of which the class is very proud. The annual trip to Allentown was as interesting as usual with trips to the courthouse, Call-Chronicle printing office, county jail, state hospital, and the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company. A flat tire and a drowned en- gine made the day a very, very happy one for Henry Costenbader and Arlene Kindt, while 'silence in the courtroom' put Earl Acker and Robert Souerwine in the 'doghouse'. On May 6th Dorothy Downs, Ruby Kronen Margaret Collins, Eleanor Dilliard, and June Mack traveled to Bloomsburg State Teacher's College for the annual commer- cial contest. The team won honors in both typing and bookkeeping with Eleanor Dilliard placing first in the typing ex- amination--and how she can tickle that machine! -r During the year a series of roller skating parties was held at LaRose's skating rink. The most enjoyable was the senior farewell party held on June 6th. The humorous scenes were too nu- merous to mention, for both the faculty and students needed plenty of practice. Henry Henritzy, as usual, proved to be the chief bouncer of the evening with Earl Acker and Helen Metzger as close seconds. Robert Souerwine had quite a bit of trouble making the wheels go 'round', while Dorothy Downs and Charles Fisher were out looking for the moon. Before us lies our New York trip. we are awaiting it eagerly, and then, not so eagerly. For all of us realize that it will be our last terminal, and when we leave the train we will all be travelingy in different directions--no longer tdgether. So the year has passed rapidly. Earl Acker will leave quiet and restful ness in Room 24--just as Robert Souer- wine s absence will bring peace and con- tentment to Mr. Leidich's social prob- lems class, and the end of Phyllis Rob- ertss chatter and giggles will once more make Mr. Saltzer a sane and civilized man in bookkeeping classes. The nl939 Expressu is slowing up. The bell is ringing, and we are arriving at our des- tination. The pull has been hard, but we have all arrived safe and sound. For four fleeting years, years abundant with happy times and full of the jollity of carefree youth, we have been preparing ourselves, though not always industrious- ly, for the time when we shall shoulder the responsibilities of the world. Now the world lies before us. We are all starting from the same position. we hope some of us will be famous, we know some of us will not. Still, when we may be gripped with despair and the skyseans darkly overcast, we can turn to the comforting ray of light, our school days The memories of the amusement and jolly times in our classes, as well as the trivial little tasks of study and 8CmNi' ties which we have experienced during our high school years, will inspire us on. With many regrets we descend from the H1939 Expressng sadly we say nFinisu to our high school careers. No longer will we sit as a class in room 24 and plan a dance or class activity, and never again wiB.we sit in classrooms and enjoy the pleasant moments with wise counselors and most excellentinstructora It has been four years of a com- radeship so near and dear to us that now our eyes fill with tears as we realize that those little humorous episodes and gay times will be only happy memories. Words cannot express our sincere appre- ciation to our instructors for their pa- tient teaching and splendid cooperation in our affairs. Farewell to our teachers and to our friends, and farewell to yen, my fellow classmates, we part with memories and hope to honor this school by future lives of usefulness. We will remember it always with feelings of the highest regard and esteem. Farewell again, for the train has stopped!! f Y r fw ' r' DLDHCDA Vxjrl Girl 13.91 ?

By these very sports we are developing a good democracy right here in our own school. But how, you may ask, it seams very far-fetched. Whether democracy will flourish in the future will depend largely upon the qualifications of American youths for the duties and responsibilities of gov- ernment. They are the ones who in a very few years will assume these respon- sibilities, and they must be prepared to meet them. Athletics, as carried on in high schools, develop strong bodies, active minds, and moral integrity. All these exercise a strong character in our Amer- ican youths. The foundation of good citizenship lies in strong character. How can a democracy prevail with weak, irresponsible men and women? Thus good citizenship is the guide of a good de- mocracy. Such are the steps leading from the development of athletics in schools up to a good, strong democracy. Sportsmanship or 'playing the gamen is the main cog in the wheel of athlet- ics. Any boy or girl who participates in athletics realizes the importance of this factor--Sportsmanship. A boy who is a good sport and can keep his self- control in a game is greatly to be ad- mired. This is what students are taught to uphold. in any athletic activity. It is the success of a team, and whether or not it brings the championship, it will bring to the school a reputation of a team composed of good sports and of cloan-cut men. The player who practices it will make a gain for himself by the development of a good character, and of what worth is a boy without this? Thus sportsmanship becomes a deciding factor in the development of strong character-- a strong character, which is so neces- sary for existing democracies. When we consider the tactics of totalitarian states in developing ath- letics, we notice more readily the sig- nificance of athletics in our democracy. American girls and boys enter athletic . contests for the enjoyment and training involved. A feeling of love for the sport, freedom in playing it, and a knowledge of the development of a strong mind for himself possesses the individ- ual participating. Quite the contrary is shown when contrasted with the total- itarians. All athletic training for their youths is for military purposes, for instance calisthenics--drills for training them for soldiery so that their countries can continue their aggressions How can enjoyment of the sport or strong character be developed in these boys from such policies, which always have the idea of militarism in the background. High school athletics create Whero worshipn among the students. A boy may be a star in football, win a game in the last few minutes of play, and immediate- ly he is put on a pedestal and looked up to by all of the others. He has become a hero in the eyes of his classmates. After a few weeks his glory fades, and he is again one of the others, but still that feeling of freedom of thought and action as enjoyed in our democracy re- mains. But how foreign this is to to- talitarian countriesl Their great con- tests are heralded not so much for the games to be presented, but because their great leader or ruler will be present to whom all must swear absolute allegiance. The people may create no individual as a hero in their eyes. There is one and only one who is thrown before them--their sovereign. Examples as these stimulate a clearer and understanding, and greater love and enthusiasm for the democratic ideals of our government. To us democracy is and always will be the only kind of government. But to uphold our government we, as future cit- izens, must prepare ourselves for this task. We must endeavor to create men and women of strong character and gud citizenship. Athletics, as carried on by American schools, is one of the most important factors for developing these qualities in our American youth--the future citizens of the United States. mrww1....

Although the Blue and White Gridders did not win many games, they gave the fans and students many thrills. Coach Maass did a fine job of teaching the squad the meaning of sportsmanship. Our first game with Pennsburg ended in a thrilling dead lock tie O to O. The next four games were lost t o Lehigh- rOOTBALL ton, Emmaus, Northampton, and Catasauqwu but our team rallied and, in a spectacu- lar game, beat Whitehall 7 to 6. In the next two games our team suffered defeat from Stroudsburg and Coplay. The team, on Thanksgiving, played excellent foot- ball, but were nosed out by our old ri- vals, Palmerton, l9 to 13. Next year our team will be bigger and stronger with Neff and Kern being the nspark plugsn of the Blue and White.

I BOYS' BASKETBALL A change took place this year in the coaching staff for basketball, Mr. Williams assumed the duties of varsity coach and under his supervision the boys worked diligently in their efforts to produce a winning team. Although the Slatington Quintet played good basketball and executed var- ious plays with brilliancy, they lost several close battles-one of thesewms to Emmaus on a 52-50 decision, and the other a set-back by Northampton 29-26. The Blue and White Cagers tallied three wins nosing out Emmaus 52-50, Lehighton 44 to 27, and defeating the Alumni in an extra period battle, 51-29. The Jr. Varsity, coached by Mr. Hess, scored but three victories--White- hall, Emmaus, and Lehighton.

This form of government, which advocates freedom of speech and of the press, keeps the government alert. However, we must have unity in a democracy, not uni- formity, since uniformity leads to stag- nation. The United States government is trying its very best to preserve its democracy, which the totalitarian states of Europe are so vainly attempting to banish. Hence, in the American schools the future citizens of the United States are taught to appreciate the fine quali- advantages of the democratic ties and government. But, what are the schools doing for the preservation of this de- mocracy? Practically all of the activities of the American school advocate and practice democratic policies. The schoo1's paper, its debating society, its dramatic productions, its oratorical contests, its musical functions, and its art work--all of these activities carry on democratic principles in some way or another. The school paper and the school year book are organized by the students, themselves. This fact alone represents a democratic principle. In these pub- lications, the students are privileged to write and print whatever they desire or whatever they are prompted by their emotions. Therefore, these publications not only urge students to support de- mocratic enterprises, but also offer very good training, beneficial to them since they prepare their minds and make them do some profound thinking and reas- oning. In the school's debating society, the students are given the opportunity, or I might say the right, to voice their opinions on various controvertible Questions brought before them. They are even taught how to uphold or denounce any resolutions or proposals of the gov- ernment. This right, most undeniably forbidden to Nazi and Fascist students, is indeed purely in accordance with pe- mocratio principles. , - The students are taught how to speak and how to approach an audience when they participate in dramatic pro- ductions in school. In this manner, they will become capable of defending their opinions or expressing their ideas and views of the government's policies-- so essential in a democracy--by exercis- ing the ability to speak, which they ac- quired in the dramatic training at school. Almost the same training, which is given to students by participation in dramatic productions, is given to those who enter the oratorical or declamation contests. The only difference is that students emphasize their own style of speaking in the declamation contests more so than in dramatics. This activ- ity also enables the student to voice their own views and opinions on the bus- iness transactions of the government. The musical functions and art work carried on in school are also somewhat in accordance with the principles of democracy, for the students are taught and permitted to appreciate that music and art which is good, regardless of what denomination or race the artist or musician may be. The Nazi students can- not really appreciate the best of the fine arts, since they are taught to no- tice how fine and good German works of art and music are. Some of the best musicians ever born were Jewish, and since Hitler threw out all the Jewish work, the German students cannot enjoy it. Now, having read about the effects democracy really has upon our school activities, may we realize how fortunate we, the students of Slatington High School, are to be studying in an Amer- ican school of democracy instead of a European school of radicalism!

J V V' REF LECTIONS STAFF BAND ORCHESTRA CHORU S THE SLATE For the past five years the Slate has carried out its policy of creating interest for the students in their own welfare in order that they might enlarge their scope mentally, physically and so- cially. Our editors have given us many in- teresting articles by which knowledge was gained and advice was given. An honest effort was made to have up-to- date and clear accounts of high school news all of the time. Our sport editors, too, have kept us well informed on athletics. Different incidents were used as subjects for humorous cartoons by our art editors. Anne Louise Smith.... The Slate was kept interesting and exciting by our humor editors. In some issues appeared divisions in which the students themselves expres- ed their own opinionsx These were great- ly approved by all. The spirit which the Slate has al- ways tried to retain, a spirit of ser- vice to the student body, is greatly up- held. During the past school year umacon- ferences were held, one during the month of April at the Kutztown High School and one during May at the Lehigh University. At these conferences students, who were given the privilege of attending, acquired not only scholastic benefits but also many social advantages. ...........Editor '59 June Mack .... .......... .....

The question which the seniors debated this year was, Re- solved: That the United States should establish an alliance with Great Brit- Bins The season was started with a dec- isional debate with Palmerton in which the negative team won and the affirm- ative lost. Previous to this debate, both the negative and affirmative teams met for many weeks after school to dis- cuss the question from all angles and to learn to refute the points the opposing teams might introduce. After the Palm- erton debate, the Tri-angular debate was held--a very important event in our list of school activities. Both affirmative ? and negative teams won. Although the 3 debating season consisted of many de- i hates with numerous schools, only three 2 of them were decisionalg and on those 2 occasions, the negative won two and the f affirmative one. Q The teams then entered the National i Forensic Contest at Newark, and, after 5 debating the teams of Lock aven, Pas- 5 saic and Dalmatia , Slatington placed Q third. 1 The Juniors debated the question, 2 Resolved: That the Uhited States should 2 adopt a policy of free trade.

Never having been driven out of any town before, Patricia views the prospect with delightful en- thusiasm. To Jimmy Clark, a newcomer, is assigned the dismaying task of get- ting rid of her. What luck he has is all bad. To add to his troubles, Jimmy falls in love with the little nuisance.

With excellent provisions for safe- guarding the students, on almost every important street crossing, we have sta- tioned a member of the safety patrol. It is their duty to aid in the prevention of unnecessary accidents, to direct the younger students, to assist the unfortu- nate, and to demand obedience. They give serious thought to every incidenbu regardless of its importance,since fast- er means of travel and larger and more careless groups of children are under their supervision. They are an aid to both the motorist and the pedestrian,for it is largely through their encouragemsm that we are rapidly becoming more and more observant of the traffic laws and safety programs. To them we extend hardy congratula- tions for their non-accident record. In gratitude and sincere appreciation we say nThank youu to their faculty advken Mr. . Earl Brown. 355 SAFETY PATROL Charles Buzinski Charles Rowlands Nyles Roberts Richard Kern GIRLS' HIKING CLUB This yea? there are ninety-two mem- 1 bers in the club with Miss Naylor as faculty adviser, and Fern Roth, class of '59, as its manager.

From the time the first group of ten was selected on June 16, l926, it has steadily expanded until now it boasts the membership of 200. To many it has been the force that urged them onward, and to many it will continue to be the factor of encourage- ment so vitally important in the accomp- lishment of every successful enterprise. From every class fifteen per cent are eligible for membership, if they have placed 'within the first third of their class and present a prominent figure in scholarship, service, leadership, and character. Nominations for membership made by the faculty members, are acted upon by a council consisting of the Su- pervising Principal, Principal of the High School, and three faculty members appointed by them. Unless a nominee re- ceives the unanimous vote of Cbmmittee, his name is automatically dropped from the membership roll. One half of the class membership is selected during the junior year of schoolg the remaining half is chosen in the spring of the following year. The following are the the present year: Margaret Collins '59 June Mack '59 Roy Moyer 4 '59 Donald Roderick '59 Anne Smith '59 Annabelle Snyder '59 Eleanor Dilliard '59 Elanore Snyder Earl Sauerwine Dorothy Downs Francis MacDonald Margaret Hamm Gwendola Kuntz members of '59 Vincent Burke '59 '59 Carl Osenbach '59 '59 Jacquelyn Rex '40 '59 Nevin Bloss '40 '59 Bernice Downs '40 '59 Ruth Fisher '40 Carl Benninger '40 - l i e, , ,., .,.
