Tfaff Activities Aa ie Jj ace High School, High School, our own high school, dear old S.H.S 3 TJhenaQ ma Jd -Q. zr cli Al f'Ad't’t' t p O «oi TV rovr Lout ItruJ. We, the staff of the 1956 Reflections, have chosen music as our theme because our school life, like music, has melody, rhythm, and harmony. We must work together harmoniously and in rhythm to have a good school; so must everyone who sings or plays with others function with them in harmony and rhythm or the effect is a terrible discord. Musicians, both vocalists and instrumentalists, study and practice so they can perform when the all-important day arrives; we also study and practice so we can perform at our graduation exercises and in our careers after high school. In this book we have attempted to portray both the serious and the lighter sides of our school life in the various forms of music. Now come with us, please, on a musical tour of our school activities. .V Dedication We, the class of 1956, are proud to dedicate the 1956 edition of Reflections to Mr. Fred Snyder, history teacher, football coach, and one of our advisors. Mr. Snyder's tact and untiring effort in his role as class advisor brought us harmoniously through three years of high school. We are also deeply appreciative of the fine course he conducted in United States History, in which he made the episodes of the history of our country interesting and vivid. On the football field in the face of many disappointments caused by injuries and losses, Mr. Snyder's sense of humor, good sportsmanship, and calm disposition were constantly shown. By dedicating this book to Mr. Snyder, we wish to thank him for all he has done for our school and for our class. 7 hhey I )rote the J3t6retti Jor O ur JlTusic Literary Editor....................

The Celestial Ball was a gala affair with the girls looking their loveliest in gowns creating a nimbus of color. Scarcely recognizable was the gym beneath the heavenly decorations of stars, clouds, and the castle in the sky. The evening was high-lighted by the crowning of our queen, Lois Kern, and the majestic performance of the minuet by her court.

At our Sweetheart Ball everyone danced around the floor in an Allegro tempo. A dazzling array of colors could be seen in Bird- land, both in decorations and in billowy gowns. Kenny Taber and Jane Unterlender, King and Queen of Hearts, emerged onto the floor through a large red heart and were then crowned by Janice Schleicher and Charles Muschlitz, last year's king and queen. Bob McClister and his Orchestra furnished music for the affair. Tlf eyro The Christmas Dance was a gala affair with all the bright and sparkling lights to bring out the glow in everyone attending. The Polka Hops supplied the gay music while everyone danced in step. Those not dancing tapped out the rhythm with their feet. Santa's sleigh was the center of attraction. Faculty guests amidst holly and poinsettias. Brilliant green! Sparkling white! These were the colors that made the dance lilting and enchanting. The large hat with the white pipe greeted all as they entered the dance. The green streamers from the ceiling simply topped off the quick and lively jig. (J.u cA anciJLiue y Like the rippling waves of the sea, the Senior Farewell came to life in the form of Neptune's Kingdom. We danced to the music of Ginger Sharkasy. The sophomores worked long and hard to make the delightful decorations which consisted of seahorses, seashells, starfish and a huge treasure chest in the middle of the floor.

On April 27, the symphony of the Class of '56 broke into a smooth andante move- ment, the Junior Declamation Contest. The speeches of that evening were of varied moods. Some were smooth, rippling movements, others were sad, but infinitely lovely. All produced magical sweet sounds that crept over the audience and held them in wonder. The theme of our Junior Play was written in modo misterioso with a good bit of comedy cued in. Enjoyable measures of suspense, ghostly voices, and hilarity resulted in the cast's performance of Lights Out. From introduction to finale, we proved ourselves true maestros of the profession.

No one will forget that boy, masquerading in girls' skirts; the near-sighted old codger, who fell for him; Tongo, the leopard-man; the shrieking Negro maid; the hypochondriac; or the many other characters. All added up to a wonderful night of enjoyment.

Harmony and true accordance were practiced in all the Tri-Hi-Y projects. The club's program helped many keep in step. On World Day of Prayer and at Eastertime, the assembly programs were conducted by the various committees of this group. The girls also aided in the cam- paigns of The Heart Fund and The March of Dimes. The gay mood was expressed by the club's sponsorship of the Sweetheart Ball. The girls extended their friendship and under- standing to many others at the Older Girls' Conference held at Kutztown. n O O () President, Jane Unterlender; Vice President, Shirley Fritz; Secretary, Shirley Frederick; Treasurer, Gloria Wotring; Assistant Secretary, Mary Ann Oncheck; Asistsant Treasurer, Lois Kern; Pianist, Sandra Hausman; Assistant Pianist, Suzanne German; Chaplain, Barbara Smith; Assistant Chaplain, Joanne Hunsberger.

Their projects and activities certainly add a spice of music and folk song which provides a well-rounded curriculum for the student body. The club works “Side by Side not only with the local Y.M.C.A., but also with the girls' fellowship, Tri-Hi-Y. These “Side by Side relationships help: first, to stimulate harmony and proper tone style among the students, and second, to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school high standards of Christian character.

With models or without, the artists always composed master- pieces of color harmony and beauty. u Jfa jfa Photograp i” The Photography Club made us all gay. The pictures of the different school activities, taken by the members really made us laugh when we saw ourselves, many times in only Half a Photograph. In the more serious side of the club, they learned the process of correctly taking a good picture and then developing it. These photos helped many remem- ber the fun we had in all our swinging and swaying. u 3t 3lm 7 Necessarily So ” Our Pro and Con Club members argued ''It Ain't Necessarily So that the Federal Government should grant sub- sidies to qualified high school graduates for higher education.

Athletics, to be successful, requires these same qualities. Our ragtime team jazzed up a final slate of four wins and six losses. However, don't judge their talents on game scores alone. They were Hotter Than That. To their misfortune, injuries during the season hindered their rhythm, but to our delight they made a marvelous comeback on Turkey Day, beating the Bombers 13 to 9. 130 U ian U£ai” First row, left to right: Richard Babyak, Jacob Papay, Arthur Schaeffer, Ronald Fritzinger, Theodore Kochmaruk, Kenneth Taber.

Our boys of the diamond came Flying Home this season to compose a sheet of 6 wins and 4 losses. The notable nine played so zealously that they topped, by a large margin, our bitter rivals, Palmerton. Daily tuning up, baseball drills, and batting practice were directed by the masterful baton of coach Bill Reese. 134 Jforne Dick Babyak and Jake Papay worked together in the in- field, as our shortstop and our third baseman. Our three ace pitchers were: Art Schaeffer, Jack Beers, and Ken Kemmerer. Terry Stoudt played center field; Lowell Scherer was our tall and efficient first base- man. The man behind the plate was Donald Sittler, while John Boonie Cole caught the pop flies in the right field. Second base and third base were care- fully watched by Kenny Ibbotson and Paul Martin. 135 First row, left to right: B. Schaeffer, R. Kralik, N. Handwerk, J. Bolton, J. Kirchkesner, P. Lienhard, J.

The girls' basketball team took to the hard- woods in a flurry of jumps, passes, and field goals. Under the coaching of Miss Connie Bauer, our girls learned how to play in harmony and with rhythm. They played their best in every game, and backed by our stellar guards, lost several by a very small margin. Janet Kirchkesner, a Junior, was the high scorer for the year. Barbara Schaeffer and Rosalie Kralik were co-captains. 1 ‘ Gwo O GfocJ? J7 ump ’ ’ DisJz 71 1 Our Tlduertisers and 7Ja irons Supported Q s in 71 Mr. and Mrs. Howard L.
