Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1960 volume:

Foreword We, the class of 1960 of Slatington High School, are privileged to be the first class to graduate from the newly-erected high school building. Therefore, what could be a more fitting theme for our yearbook than building ? Over a long period of time, we have been building lives; over a long period of time, also, our friends in this community have been building for us a school. May we point out here the correlation between the two goals— a beautiful physical structure ready for occupancy and a well-rounded gradu- ate ready to take his place in life. 2 Just as the value of our new facilities can only be determined through use, so also the worth of the lives we have built can be evaluated only by our deeds. Changes will come to both of these finished products to enrich them for the future. Let us now look at these finished projects-the school and the graduates —and see what labors of love and learning went into them. We Dedicate Reflections ’60 For his diligence in school policy, for his foresight in matters beyond our comprehension, for his understanding of school problems, for his self- sacrifice in school affairs, and for his enthusiasm and endurance on the school's behalf, we, the graduating class of 1960, find it fitting and proper to dedicate this yearbook to our most deserving high-school principal, Mr. Herman P. Snyder. He has served us long and well. He has been an expert guide in trouble, and his helping hand has carried us through many a turmoil. Never can we forget the one who helped to make available this new high school from which our class was privileged to graduate first. To him we are indebted; to him we owe our thanks now and in the years to come. The Northern'Lehigh Joint School Author- ity, composed of Edgar Stahley, Ray Mus- selman, Allen G. Shiffert, Walter W. Rex, Robert Dreisbach, and Ira Bleiler, began work in October, 1957, to build S.H.S. Their time, work, and patience have taken . . . a bare field on top of the hill on N. Diamond Street, some men, some bricks, some metal, and much money . . . A Dream Realized- to create an inside corridor like this one leading to our modern and efficient cafe- teria. Those who said it couldn't be done see here only a small part of the fin- ished product—Slatington High School! A Student Council President Dale Ringer and Board of Education President Robert Edwards cooperate in lowering the steel box into the cornerstone of the new S.H.S. What's in the box? You'll never believe it, but that small box contains everything from blue-and-white ribbons to the daily paper. The big smiles on the faces of these gen- tlemen show they are satisfied with a tough job well done. Architect Everett is presenting the golden keys to S.H.S. to Mr. Robert Dreisbach, authority president, who will in turn present them to Mr. Edwards, President of the Board of Edu- cation. Beautiful Building Cooperating with our administration all the way in the work of providing a new high school for the Northern Lehigh Joint School District were our Lehigh County officers: William Oswalt, Frank A. Leidich, and William Bartholomew.

For three years the leaders of the class of 1960 have guided us skillfully through all kinds of controversies and upsets. To our officers goes the appreciation wa can never express in words. We can only say, Thank you for keeping us a solid unit as a class through our high-school years. Leaders AU — They Made THE CLASS OF 1960 OFFICERS ____________________________ Judith Lilly ________________________Keith Handwerk ______________________________ Joan Kern _________________________Terry Chandler 10 PRESIDENT _________ VICE-PRESIDENT .... SECRETARY _________ TREASURER _________ Understanding, smiling, helpful Mr. Reese it was who worked with us in the refreshment stand those chilly mornings during football season. His hearty kindness out of school did not lead us to expect concessions in senior P. D. class. For his unflagging friendship and advice, the class of 1960 renders appreciation to Mr. Reese. Although she was kept busy as our guidance counselor. Miss Naylor was always willing to give of her time to the class of 1960. At our class meetings, she gave us expert advice and help. She encouraged us to participate in class and school events. For her time, patience, and talents spent as our advisor, we the class of 1960 thank Miss Naylor.

Not only in the building of our lives, but also in the build- ing of a fine school system, the Northern Lehigh Joint School Board has played a major role. Without these dedicated men, our solid preparation would be non-exist- ent. To the Board we owe gratitude. May we continue to build on the firm foundation they have provided for us. 36 Joint School Board With a Safe, Sure Start. miui --nitiii mi tmmi uuisiMiiMiii m hjm.-uffiiiiP : .......... r isama Members of the Board Robert D. Edwards, President Muriel L. Williams, Secretary Daniel H. Rauch John F. Hower Edward B. Shirk Ray W. Pickel Leon Rex, Jr. Walter A. Krum Robert Scheffler Delbert F. Fatzinger Donald J. Rowlands Claude E. Hensinger Oliver J. Rauch, Jf. (not in picture) 37 In his spacious office, Dr. Elmer S. Stevens, supervising principal of the Northern Lehigh School System, inter- rupts his many chores to pose for the cameras. As head educator. Dr. Stevens is chiefly responsible for the efficient operation of our schools. When he is not attending athletic events, Dr. Stevens may be found doing photography or enjoying some activity with his family. They Contracted An understanding of teen-agers, a knack for scheduling courses and keeping us all busy each moment, a talent for being guest speaker on Friday mornings in assembly—all these qualities are symbolic of our Slatington Junior-Senior High School Principal, Mr. Herman P. Snyder. We can always remember that in his eyes each student is an individual with the potential of being a good citizen. Although at senior high we only get an occasional passing glimpse of Mr. Joseph Musso, we recognize in him a fine Assist- ant Principal of the Slatington Junior- Senior High School. Stationed in junior high, he starts out our students on the right track so that they come to senior high prepared for anything and every- thing. Mr. Musso is a faithful S.H.S. fan who can be seen at any sports event. Behind that modernistic curved desk we can always find Miss Muriel L. Williams, Board Secretary for Northern Lehigh Joint Schools and private secretary to Dr. Stevens. As head of the office staff. Miss Williams must keep at her fingertips all the details of a busy administration. to Build Firmly Staff meeting in Miss Williams' office at the beginning of the day enables our administrative secretaries to fulfill the many daily demands on their time and patience. Our secretaries are Mrs. Marie Deibert, Mrs. Ellen Dietrich, Miss Muriel Williams, Mrs. Betty Parry, and Miss Ellen Gehringer. All set and ready in action! Mrs. Deitrich is working on that pesky cafeteria count; Miss Gehringer is getting out the daily absentee bulletin,- Mrs. Deibert and Miss Williams are discussing the inven- tory, and Mrs. Parry takes a message at her post as receptionist and telephone operator. Pat Salash, a Sophomore girl, has her teeth checked by Mrs. MacCrindle as Miss Kern makes a note of the results. Our nurses have charge of ear and eye test- ing during the school years, too. Thump! Thump! Dr. H. B. Kern checks Sophomore Timmy Snyder's heart. Having a good heart is very important in developing physically. These Sub-Contractors Miss Ara Kern serves as a chauffeur on those days when illness gets us down. A big thanks for her know-how in dealing with us patients. Mrs. MacCrindle has charge of those dread- ful little objects—pills! We are thankful to her, however, when we are given the relief we seek. One of the most essential personalities at S.H.S. is Miss Evelyn Naylor. She advised us on future careers and listened intently when a problem confronted us. Her friendly smile encouraged us toward our studies so that we can build a suc- cessful future. The Class of 1960 thanks her for a job well done. What's a comptometer? How does it operate? These business-minded students and Mrs. Peters, the proctor, heard how from Miss Rita Russiano of the Allentown Comptometer School. Career Day is one of the most helpful days at S.H.S., for it helps us to choose a future profession. Check the Minor Detail Miss Naylor and Mr. Trettel chat with guests in the Family Life Center on Career Day. Students of S.H.S. serve as guides for Career Day Speakers. Here we see Tommy Leiser, Dolores Wasilousky, Peg- gy Jo Salash, and Ang- harad Jones chatting with (from left to right) Mr. William Grubbs rep- resenting Penn State; S Sgt.

Mr. Horvath teaches bookkeeping from the ground up. (He even includes that killer of all creatures, the income tax blank.) Building for Business WILLIAM E. HORVATH We are introducing Mr. Horvath, teacher of bookkeep- ing, consumer education, business mathematics and our very capable advisor of Student Council. Mr. Hor- vath is an avid sportsman and he can be found at all athletic contests. He also enjoys being with his family. Mr. Horvath particularly likes the pleasant surroundings of the new school. But more important than the school are the students themselves, he says. Mr. Horvath's idea of a good student is one who absorbs a reasonable amount of education and one who possesses self-reliance, self-discipline, and deter- mination. Before you here are our new faculty members at S.H.S. this term. In associating with these new and young teachers, we are finding the business of learning is also a pleasure. Seated are Mrs. Peters, Miss Kokolus, and Miss Schaeffer. The gentlemen are Mr. Smith and Mr. Kreidler. An adequate background in typing is an invaluable asset in whatever field these students wish to enter in the future. We Increase Our Skills During periods when the typing room is not in use, seniors and other typing students come to practice. Teach- ers are always appreciative, also, of those students who hand in typed manuscripts instead of that awful chicken- scratching. GORDON L. KEMP The noise of typewriters will always remind us of Mr. Kemp. Mr. Kemp can usually be seen in his new car going to his bowling meet. He thinks the new school has, of course, better facilities and the students appear more scholarly. Mr. Kemp hopes to build in his stu- dents a preparation for good living, to help them be- come the best possible citizens, and the best possible parents. We owe Mr. Kemp a real vote of thanks this term for his good supervision in the cafeteria! Office practice is simply what the name implies. These students are practicing precisely for the same type of work they hope to assume in future years. When our business ed students leave S.H.S., they have had real practice in using all business machines and equipment. We Practice Prodigiously The stage in our new visual aids room is a practical addition to the building of our pro- gram of communications. Students and teach- ers have opportunity to play-act and role- play any time during class hours or after school. Here, Dale Ringer, Sandra Fritzinger, MaryAnn Haas, Ellouise Handwork, Donna Kirchner, and John Kisthardt rehearse a play. W. IRENE PETERS A new addition to our school is a southern belle, Mrs. Peters. Mrs. Peters hails from North Carolina. She has an A.B. degree in Commercial Education and Secre- tarial Science from Catawba College, Salisbury, N. C. Mrs. Peters feels privileged to do her first year of teaching in the new school. Respect for others and character are important in building a student according to Mrs. Peters. Her interests are traveling and listening to good music. Mrs. Peters teaches Shorthand, office practice, and general clerical. Miss Koch's math class in full swing! Working with numbers and unknowns is fascinating as well as helpful. First-year algebra gives students the fundamentals on which they can build for careers in mathematics or science. Already using some of that mathematics and some science information besides, these sophomores do some experi- ments in the applied-science laboratory. MARY JOAN KOCH Students learn their Junior Business and Algebra from Miss Koch. This past summer she took courses at Hunter College on a scholarship granted by the Na- tional Science Foundation. Miss Koch thinks the new school is different but nice. She hopes to build in her students power of reasoning. Her ever-ready smile gives us insight to Miss Koch's helpful and understanding disposition. RUSSELL J. STETTLER Our well-liked algebra, trigonometry, and solid geom- etry teacher is Mr. Stettler. Playing piano and organ are two of his hobbies. He also enjoys travel, watching wrestling, and reading—especially the comics. Among his favorite features in the new school are storage space, cafeteria, color scheme, spaced blackboard, and a clock that keeps time. He tries to show his pupils the importance of mathematics in everyday life. We surely do enjoy his organ selections each week at assembly! We Use Angles and Figures Whether the day be sunny or darkly overcast, Mr. Stettler is our faithful ' gate man at the Victory Park field. You see? He's showing you the fruits of his toil—a pile of football admission tickets. Get your algebra. It's important. It's basic to help you in later courses. Take heed to what Mr. Stettler says, you algebra students! RACHEL M. STECKEL In Plane Geometry, we learn the theorems from Miss Steckel. She is interested in children, good music, and reading. Miss Steckel says, The design and equip- ment of our school should be an incentive to turn in the best performance of the year. Perseverance, courage, industry, and respect for the rights of others are, in her mind, the qualities of a good student. Did you know that Miss Steckel is an avid baseball fan? She can always tell us what's new in the big leagues. Every Day of Our Lives. Where is a better place to take a picture of a retiring teacher than in her own classroom—at her desk. Miss Steckel has served the Slatington Schools for years—faith- fully and understandingly. To Miss Steckel we say, Good luck and much happiness in your years as a 'free woman We will miss you next year at S.H.S. There is no substitute for good hard study. Miss Steckel proposes. This is true in English as well as any other subject. JOHN W. PARSONS Our musically-inclined physics teacher, Mr. Parsons, in addition to playing in the Palmerton Band, takes an interest in hunting and forestry. He thinks that a new school is the best thing that could have happened to the school system. To build patience and industry in his students is his goal. Since Mr. Parsons' Applied Science Course needs a textbook, he is working hard to write one. We look forward to being proud of it with him when it comes off the press! Everyday Topics for Talk Under the expert guidance of Mr. Parsons, these students are discovering a million new ways of successfully applying science to everyday life. LEE A. KREIDLER An addition to our school—male, that is—is Mr. Kreidler who teaches biology and general science. Mr. Kreidler graduated from S.H.S. and Muhlenberg College where he received his A.B. degree majoring in biology. His interests include basketball and bowling. Mr. Kreidler thinks the new school is most convenient, especially in the science departments. He feels that character in a student is most important. Nature, the Weather and Health Exploring a new phase of biology, these students have begun at an early age to cope with the many complexities found in science. It' easy to look at specimen and draw them at the same time, after you overcome the habit of squinting. Mr. Bender's better-than-ever biology class views some specimens. Become Discussions in Science Class. EARL A. BENDER Mr. Bender spends considerable time in the science lab, at home with his family, with his majorettes, and at the bowling alley. This summer, our biology, chem- istry, and advanced-science teacher, received his high- est master's degree or half of a Doctorate. Mr. Bender sees great improvement in the science rooms, which provide adequate space, pleasant atmosphere, even temperature, and better place to perform experiments. He compares the school with an individual: In a school, all parts must function in order for the school to operate smoothly. In like manner, a student must de- velop all phases of his personality in order to build a strong character. In Teachers' Corner at the Senior Farewell we find a group of adults enjoying the dance—and a bit of gab between times. American Literature is so fascinating and interesting ' says Mrs. Roeder; but earnest concentration is needed for understanding. We Must Read and Speak to Communicate EDITH AA. ROEDER Our congenial English teacher, Mrs. Roeder, at the present, is working on her Master's Degree in English at Lehigh. Among her interests are her family, reading, sewing, and listening to good music. Her chief goal is giving the students in their education everything they need most. Mrs. Roeder explains the new high school in one word— Wonderful! By the way, stu- dents, take advantage of her excellent course in Com- position! You'll use it in the future. JUNIOR DECLAMATION Showing great forensic and dramatic talent, these eight juniors provided an interesting evening for all. Whether humorous or serious, each speech was masterfully done. The participants in the contest were Constance Braerman, Janice Szapacs, Pamela Owens, Susan Merkle, Harriet Solt, John DeSanctis, William O. Jones, Don VanNorman, Dennis Snyder, and Harry Lentz. 53 Come on, kids, can't you follow along the plot of the story? Shown here is Mr. Trollinger in his bow of success with the commercial students in English class. With Our Friends and Neighbors CARL B. TROLLINGER Directing our plays is our Senior English teacher, Mr. Trollinger. Family, self-improvement, and music are his main interests. He feels that our new school pro- vides so many things which are conducive to good academic work. Mr. Trollinger's aim is to build in- tegrity in his students. The book fair introduced by Mr. Trollinger this year was a real success—it made us conscious of the importance of reading for fun. Here's a curtain call for a cast with character! As an experi- ment this year, the Junior Class presented Moliere's The Doctor in Spite of Himself. Sixteen Juniors really came through with some good characterization in this historical drama. The importance of learning essential English will show itself in future years in communicating with those about us. Shown here is a freshman English Class, with Mr. Richard Jones at the helm. at Home and Abroad. A breathless moment at the men's faculty game this winterl Who's that hot shot ? Why, Mr. Kreidier, of course! We're all cheering for him. RICHARD K. JONES Tall, dark, and handsome describes our Freshman English teacher, Mr. Jones. His interests include good music and all kinds of sports. Mr. Jones particularly likes the new facilities in our new school. His concept of a good student is one who has a good character, manners, high moral standards, and one who is able to get along well with others. Gallia est omnia divisa in partes tres . . Second year Latin students embark on a new adventure with Caesar's account of his Gallic Wars. The Cultures of Our Forebears Just leaving the auditorium after an illustrated lecture on life in the far North, one of our Antrim program speakers stops to pick up his films on Alaska. SARA E. MILLER Miss Miller is our fun-loving and gay English and Latin teacher. She enjoys dancing, reading, and music. At the present time, she is working on her Master's degree at Lehigh. Miss Miller agrees with the other teachers that the new school is excellent. Besides building the stu- dent's education, she feels that it is important to stress consideration for others and the power to see all sides of a question before deciding on an issue. VICKI KOKOLUS Miss Vicki Kokolus, our basketball-playing blonde teacher, comes to us directly from Moravian College where she received her Bachelor's Degree, majoring in French. Although she was subbing for Mrs. Hicks, Miss Vicki has won a place in our hearts. Her favorite pastimes are sports, reading, dancing, and traveling. She believes character, leadership, and a sense of responsibility are essential in good student growth. Did you know she's teaching at Parkland next year? Come to Us Through Language Classes. Five elementary French students practice pronunciation in the new language booths. Can you say, Comment allez- vous? Maybe we'd better repeat this introductory lesson. No matter what the course, English is essential. And under the very capable Miss Kokolus, English is made easy and interesting. Learning the essentials of the government under which we live will help these freshman students to understand today's political problems. State Patrol Officer Good gave a day from his busy schedule to come to S.H.S. to talk to our students both in assembly and in driver-training classes. Let's all take his excellent advice to heart. We Pattern Our Lives After Those 58 RICHARD K. SMITH One of the new faces in our school is Mr. Smith, teacher of freshman civics and Junior Business Train- ing. He received his B.S. degree from West Chester State Teachers College. In his opinion the new school is one of the best plants that he has come into contact with. He feels that each student should set a goal for himself in line with his ability. Reaching for that goal indicates good student progress. One of Mr. Smith's jobs this term was coaching the brand-new wrestling team. Another day, another history class, and another international or national problem, then on to the French and Indian War! Right, Mr. Snyder? FREDERICK J. SNYDER World and American History are taught to us by Mr. Snyder. He takes an interest in all sports and enjoys reading and watching TV. Instead of comparing our school with more expensive ones, he feels that people should realize that we have a very nice school for the money we spent. Building effort in the student is important to him. Mr. Snyder deserves a big vote of thanks for his untiring work with the football squad. 59 WILLIAM J. REESE Our baseball coach, seventh- and eighth-grade basket- ball coach, and P.D. teacher, Mr. Reece enjoys reading and athletics. According to Mr. Reese, the building of the new school has satisfied a long-time need. He tries to build in his students a desire to learn and self-discipline. Those Problems of Democracy classes under Mr. Reese cover much territory in preparing us to live as free, responsible citizens. Current Events Is Really Current History. World history, with the sidelines added by Mr. Reese, is made most interesting. Most of his students can be seen taking very copious notes. Looking nervous and excited these class members are about to enter the auditorium. One of the greatest nights of their lives is at hand. You see here some of the members of Mr. Reese's favorite class. DONALD P. JONES Very handy with paint and brush describes our art teacher, Mr. Jones. In addition to art, he takes an interest in cars, fishing, photography, and bowling. He describes the new auditorium as a most beautiful piece of work. Mr. Jones feels that character in stu- dents can be improved by the school only through pro- ducing better self-discipline in students and more re- spect for authority. Have we ever called on Mr. Jones for anything when he hasn't been ready to help? We Angle for Appreciation Rembrandts in the making! Mr. Jones' art class in progress is a scene of much activity with paint brushes, drawing pencils, and creative minds. What a wonderful setting for a painting lesson! Haven't you ever thought how much you'd enjoy being able to do a sunset or a lovely flower? Well, these students are having that opportunity. The display board behind the students looks as though someone has already been busy! HAZEL D. REED The sweet aroma of cakes always reminds us of Mrs. Reed, S.H.S. Home Ec teacher. Her interests include good music, arts, and crafts. In Mrs. Reed's opinion, the new school is fine and one that the community can be proud of. She thinks it is important to build in a student character and understanding. May we add? Mrs. Reed keeps before us constantly the thought that we can all learn to live graciously. Sewing, Cooking, and Shop Teach IJs One of the most popular spots in our school is the cafe- teria. At fourth period in the morning things take a turn for the busier as everyone converges on the food bars. Mr. Handwerk and our cooks are ready, however, as always! Cooking, sewing, and good housekeeping in general will make for a happy, contented home. FRANCIS R. TRETTEL Our boys learn to be builders from Mr. Trettel, our shop teacher. Much of his time is spent with his family; fishing, bowling, and reading are his main in- terests. To him, everything in the new school is won- derful. He tries to make his students aware of changes in society and science, also to have respect for author- ity. Why don't you go down to the shop some free moment and see the beautiful handicraft displayed there? Handicrafts Lead to Practical Careers These fellows are building everything from boats to book- cases. In a free period, the wood shop is a popular spot. These are master craftsmen who are completing their master- pieces. The experience they receive will be of value to them in future years. Elementary safety is practiced in the industrial arts department and has to be one of the first things taught. A fine craftsman himself, Mr. Trettel allows the boys to use their own initiative and imaginations in choosing their projects. NORETTA A. SCHAEFFER Our new gym teacher. Miss Schaeffer, graduated from East Stroudsburg State Teachers College. She plans to take post-graduate work during the summer. Her inter- ests include sports, watching TV, and dancing. She feels that our new facilities are an asset to both teachers and pupils. Promoting interest, a pleasing personality, and the ability to get along with others are her main objectives in teaching. Miss Schaeffer has been busy with all the girls' basket- ball. She even got the women teachers to play a game or two! All Work and No Play Four stars of our girls' basketball team are shown here. Seniors all, they hope to go into the business world next September and use the same good sportsmanship in their jobs as they have learned at S.H.S. You know them all: Barbara Schleicher, Gloria Kern, Margaret Scott, and Carol Miller. In addition to maintaining physically fit bodies, these girls are also taught good personal cleanliness habits. See these shining white outfits? LLOYD WILLIAMS Teaching our boys gym and health and coaching our boys' basketball team is Mr. Williams. He enjoys fish- ing and golf. This summer, Mr. Williams took his first vacation in 24 years. Everything about the new school fascinates him, especially the home economics and science departments. He tries to build in his pupils a sound mind in a sound body. Results in a Life in a “Rut.” Get that ball in there! shouts the Smith Hall crowd, as our boys tussle with an opposing team. A large part of Mr. Williams' program in the winter season is working with the varsity basketball team. From the action in this picture, one can readily see that he has instilled into his boys the will to win. The new gymnasium at S.H.S. is beautiful. Boys' and girls' classes can take place at the same time, since the room can be divided. Body building, here shown, starts early and continues through school years. PETER DEQUINQUA Don't forget the clutch! is a common expression used by our driver-training teacher, Mr. DeQuinqua. To give his nerves a rest, he likes to travel and to attend sports and other school events. At the present time, he is working on his master's degree. The auditorium, cafe- teria, and gymnasium are, to him, very nice pieces of work in the new school. He wishes to build in his students better self-discipline and respect for authority. Ask Mr. DeQuinqua which class is the best and we'll bet he's partial to those juniors. “The Life You Save Might Be Your Own.” The goal for which these junior driver training students are aiming is being safe, courteous drivers. Remember, safe driving depends on you ' says Mr. DeQuinqua. How good a driver are you? One way to test your ability to drive is by testing your reaction time and reaction distance. Demonstrated here is this unique way of testing how well you can drive, compliments of the Nationwide Insurance Company. EVELYN A. MORGAN We find Miss Morgan spending all of the school day in the library. She is very much pleased with the great amount of storage room for books and other library necessities which the new library has to offer. She takes an interest in reading, traveling, raising roses, and attending the theater. By setting an excellent ex- ample, she hopes to build fine character in her stu- dents. The S.P.Q.R. wishes to thank Miss Morgan for her continued help this year in keeping this club an active one. To Become Wise; We Must Read, Read, Read. This picture of the S.H.S. Library was taken early in autumn even before all the furniture had arrived. Miss Morgan and her library group have all the books catalogued and shelved, however, ready for an influx of readers and researchers. — 7 i30A.?7,1307.77 V7.Z7 ot.tA I +Wp£ I CH varidS I-----4 L II 0 ,-fcocvlt fthfi .aorta ksuiu, ... j-i . « at-f a ’A 3 d — REACT ICE M fOYE£ 3 I 3 CH. 8abov« all Ifveis 5 Vi CO HiDOP. 3 j)| Damp Jn —- (33) Coftytcfof 20 0 Z ► 1 « UL Sp11 2- EI.50feMo7 V-',T W( rrJesa $rb ——7 OF DOO!

Mo.! 1 We Enter As Tiny Freshmen That first year as freshmen is a hard one. We must get used to new teachers, new and harder studies, and a brand-new building. We must begin to build a real treasury, thinking forward four years to that senior trip. We must establish our own class personality in the school and find leaders and followers among our numbers. We have a great deal of building to do.

Sophmore class officers and their dance partners greet the arriving guests at the Senior Farewell. The swing beneath the dogwood was a popular spot the night of the Senior Farewell. We'd wager everyone had his picture taken in our Summer Place. Stanley Hoffman and Warren Hen- ritzy want to know how that jet auto works after the assembly pro- gram put on in the auditorium by representatives of General Electric. Junior Class Officers and Advisors Whatta year! We have certainly been busy! say the Junior Class officers. Their inspiring leadership has pushed the junior magazine campaign proceeds way up there. The Junior Declamation Contest and Junior Play, The Doctor in Spite of Himself, were well attended in spite of some snow on play night.

Number 44, Keith Handwerk, is clearing a path for him. No! The Slaters did not win the league cham- pionship this year in football. S.H.S. feels, however, that they really tried and really dis- played splendid sportsmanship throughout the season. We were the first league team to score against Northampton, weren't we? Here's our schedule, and we did bring home four wins, five losses, and two tied games.

Here we see co-captains Terry Chandler and Larry Jones placing the crown on Queen Ellouise's head. Ellouise Handwerk has as her ladies-in-waiting Joan Kern and Felicia Evans. One of the traditions of the big Turkey Day Pep Rally is the moment when each senior player pins a lovely corsage on his own mother. We owe all mothers of our sportsmen a vote of thanks for their cooperation and help in this busy season. Although the boys did not have a winning season (9-14), it was the best record since 1955. Fighting their hardest, our Slaters were nipped by Whitehall, one of the top contenders in the Lehigh Valley, 88-85. The younger Slaters had a 6-16 record losing most of the games by only a few points. Kneeling before his team is Coach Lloyd Williams, flanked by Managers Lewis Grammes and Jacob Peters. Team members are Reynold Lorah, John Parry, Paul Hoffman, William O. Jones, Douglas Farber, Charles Fink, James Evans, Larry Jones, William J. Jones, Don VanNorman, Stephen Redline, Mark Queen, Robert Mengel, and Harry Lentz.

A Major Attraction - Our Girls! Let's go! Let's go! We all shout, as our for- ward tries for a basket. Fast action on the girls' ball court is seen as Carol The champs, Barbara Schleicher shoots. She usually gets them when she tries, too! and Carol Miller, pose with that blue-and-white-ball and Coach Nor- etta Schaeffer. The pose here re- minds us of a ballet step — only faster. . A new sport has begun at S.H.S. this year which intrigued the interest of all of us. Wrestling is the sport and above, the team, with Mr. Smith, the coach, watching, demonstrates holds and approaches to this sport. Our team did not win, but it did an excellent job of learning and should prove itself in the next two or three years. Foreground Manager David Altrichter, Donald Howell, William Horvath, Thomas Scott, Larry Martin, Gary Moyer, Russell Kern, Harrison Solt, Kenneth Howell, Creighton Miller, Rodney Cressman, David Scott, Ronnie Szapacs, Ted Kistler, Sherwood Frederick. Background: Robert Searfass, Charles Plotsko, Marvin Billheimer, LeRoy Kern, David Dunn, Coach Dick Smith, James Buzinski, Randall Fritzinger, Donald Barilla, David Rauch, Terry Bossard, Harry Schoch, Manager John Troxell. A New Sport Claims Our Attention: Donald Barilla and Sherwood Frederick demonstrate the starting position in wrestling. Even the referee gets down on his knees—or even flat on the mats sometimes—to decide whether or not the holds are legal. At first our new gym at S.H.S. was the ideal spot for a wrestling match, but the good attendance at the early matches led to our switching to Smith Hall for en- suing contests. 99 Our baseball team during the 1960 spring season contained some promising material, as you can see here. Front Row: Managers Paul Nicholas, Jacob Peters, Eugene Werley. Second Row: Ronald Andrule- vich, Bernard Hoffman, Robert Mengel, Douglas Farber, Richard Cole, Larry Jones, David Kreiss, Keith Handwerk, William O. Jones, Richard Reitz, Dennis Kreiss. Third Row: Anthony Andrulevich, Kenneth Kern, Robert Berger, Donald Barilla, Larry Turoscy, David Blose, Coach Reese, Dennis Lazorcheck, Joel Seip, Clarence Kern, Randall Fritzinger, Harry Lentz, and Dale Blose. Larry Jones, Keith Handwerk, David Kreiss, and Richard Cole get pointers from Coach Bill Reese on the techniques of handling a baseball. Vim, Vigor, Vitality- These four seniors have been real sports stand-bys this past three years. It is difficult to realize they will be graduating before next baseball season comes in. Larry Jones, David Kreiss, Richard Cole, and Keith Handwerk. Mr. Rollin Jones and manager Ronald Diehl (top row) guided the track team this year to some good accomplishments. The team pictured here are: Charles Henritzy, Donald Peters, Thomas Hartwig. Second Row: Ronald Sowden, Edward Pahula, George Dorward, John Kisthardt, Mark Queen. Third Row: J. Barry Owens, Ronald Jones, Bruce Roeder, William J. Jones, James Papay, Robert Price. The Slaters Have Everything Edward Pahula, Tommy Hartwig, Donald Peters, and Edward Henritzy get some practical instruc- tions for the starting lineup. These boys are seniors and will leave a big hole in our track team in the coming year. Several of these fellows went to the track meets at Penn State this summer. 8 i JU _ ?r tlS..duC| , 1 --------bi) H.C. V 5. r r ic. 4‘-o“ c vi 'x T. handrail bij £ 6 ud plank. i J ■s.

Most of all, however, we think of him as the genius with the baton, leading our band in excellent musical renditions. He builds character, school spirit, and dependability in his music students by having them practice those qualities always. Their Top-Notch Performance The high school band members work hard at our after-school and after-supper band rehearsals for our concert in May. A bit less volume over there, signals Mr. Scars as the band members practice their parts again and again so that they can play them perfectly for the concert. Awards assembly always brings satisfaction to those of us who have really worked hard in activities during the yean Band members clap as Ronald Sowden receives his medal. Indicates Top-Quality Work. To each year's excellent musician goes the privilege of receiving the John Philip Sousa Award—a medal he can keep forever. In addition he has' his name placed on the Sousa Plaque on the wall of the music room. Here we see Mr. Scarselletti presenting this award to Ronald Sowden, trombonist and music man for 1960. This quintette is made up of Pat Schleicher, Harriet Solt, Roberta Sterner, Nancy Skutches, and Sally Ann Rex. Although they are doodling on these toys now, they really are all skilled members of our musical aggregation. The Slatington High School jug band adds variety to the annual spring concert. They make music from bottles, jugs, and any old thing they can pick up. The Slatington High School band members beam with pride after presenting an outstanding concert. Our band presents performances surpassed by few. Leading the parades were the colorguards, a very snappy group of girls who represented their Alma Mater well. Our colorguards are: Donna Lorah, Joan Helfrich, Brenda Kreidler, Sandra Schaeffer, Judy Haydt, and Dianne Kennell. High-Stepping Precision Snaps Us Black and white uniforms symbolize S.H.S.'s high-stepping majorettes who perform in parades, football games, and on stage. Kneeling are: Colleen Burke, Felicia Evans, Head Majorette Caroline Turoscy, Gloria Kern, and Rita Small. Standing: Linda Jones, Sandra Nothstein, Brenda Zellner, Marjorie Babyak, Brenda Gruber, Linda Gruber, Polly Ann Reese, and Janice Anthony. Cheerleaders, majorettes, colorguards, all—a group of well-talented girls to whom the students of S.H.S. look for leadership in school spirit and entertainment. A dozen red roses to each of these gals for jobs well done in 1959-60. Our Junior Varsity Cheerleaders do not take a back seat for anyone. Their skills in cheering and acro- batics prove that they hold their own. From top to bottom: Patsy Salash, Cheryl Behler, Marianne Zellner, Sharon Handwerk, Grace Diehl, Dorothy Roper. All Into That Cheering Mood! The best in the valley—that describes our Varsity Cheerleaders, who lifted our school spirit throughout the year. Performing at games and pep rallies, they worked hard to cheer us to victory. Left to right: Cheryl Deibert, Angharad Jones, Joan Kern, Mary Ellen Papay, Janice Szapacs, and Carol Grammes. MRS. MARION EVANS Music is a very important word to our chorus director, Mrs. Marion Evans. Included in her busy schedule are church choir, Bach choir, music club, participation in string ensembles, and bridge club. She takes a special interest in her grandchildren. The music room is a paradise, according to Mrs. Evans. In building the character of her students, she tries to persuade them to become interested in several extracurricular activities so that they won't have time to do those things which tend to lower character. We Build Harmony in Life Raising some real competition for the senior sextette is this bundle of ambition called the junior sextette. Take it away, girls! Roberta Sterner, Carol Greenzweig, Josephine Thomas, Janice Szapacs, Patricia Schneck, and Patricia Schleicher make up this group. The accompanist is a junior, too, Pamela Owens. Freshmen have as one class a course in music appreciation, taught by Mrs. Evans. Not only does this class learn about music and composers, they do some singing and really participate. The vocal music program under Mrs. Evans' direction at S.H.S. is a good one with opportunity for anyone who is interested in singing. The facilities in our new building are excellent and add to the quality of the curriculum. Here we see Mrs. Evans directing Jeanette Yenser and Ronald Verba in their vocalizing, as Nancy Kennell and Rhea Kuhnert play a duet accompaniment. There is complete privacy for this work in the new music room. Singing, Singing, Singing. Our senior sextette is a working group. This year they sang at assembly programs, special community affairs, at play and concert intermissions. Here, led by Mrs. Evans, Brenda Kreidler, Mary Ann Haas, Sandra Kibler, Beverly Fritz, Donna Kirchner, and Joan Rau perform at the Chorus Concert in April. With Pam Owens at the orgpn and LeAnn Leiby and Nancy Kennell on the piano bench, the chorus rehearses for its April concert after school. As we walk through the halls, we have a tendency to sing along with the more familiar numbers they are practicing. Mrs. Evans gives particular instructions to her sopranos, who are having a hard time with a particular song. Have you noticed the beautiful Hammond Concert Organ? We are proud that Pam and some other students are already able to use it to good advantage. One of the most impressive services of the school year is the installing of Student Council. The candle is the symbol of our school's leadership. He who carries the candle is an important person in our S.H.S. life. Service with a smile is what we get at the Student Council store. Have you been around to see the nice selection of S.H.S. boosters and the stock of books we have to sell? Our officers are Wayne Danner, Vice-President; Dale Ringer, President; Ellouise Hand- werk, Secretary; Keith Handwerk, Treasurer. We Honor These. A hard-working group with Dale Ringer presiding is our Student Council. Policies in and recommendations for activities for students are part of the discussions. Keith and Wayne are not working hard. They're only counting the money for today's take at the store. Slatington High School's Student Council was excep- tionally good this school year. Under the very capable leadership of President Dale Ringer, we built new policies which had to be formulated anew because we were in a first situation. Working ably with adminis- tration and faculty members, the Council has set a record that will be hard to beat! Some members of the National Honor Society gather for a picture. Row 1: Brenda Kreidler, MaryAnn Haas, Joan Kern, Barbara Schleich- er, Donna Kirchner, Linda Koch, Ellouise Handwerk, Carol Greenz- weig, and Jeanette Wertman. Row 2: Larry Neff, Paul Nicholas, Wil- liam O. Jones, Larry Jones. These To be of service to his school and community, to main- tain a high scholastic standing, to set an example of leadership, and to display the qualities of good char- acter which may set an example for others to follow is the responsibility of a member selected to the National Honor Society. Bring Honor to Us. Larry Neff, president of the National Honor Society, gives his address as Salutatorian of the Class of 1960. He speaks on the subject, The Citizen's Responsibility for Education. As Salutatorian of his class, Larry demonstrates not only his leadership ability but also his right to be president of this honor society. Planning Ahead Toward the Future Terry Chandler presides at a meeting of the Future Teachers of America. The club was quite successful this year: two of its members were elected to high offices. Stephen Redline was elected State President of Future Teachers Clubs; and William O. Jones, District President. The club has performed many services to the school during the year. During Teaching Career Month, they honored the teachers and also presented a panel discussion to urge students to consider teaching as a career. Future Homemakers watch a demonstration of how to make Easter eggs look attractive, fancy and colorful. We are all hoping they will still be edible when this is all over! Mrs. Reed, sponsor for this club, endeavors to have as many demonstrations of this type as possible during the club year. « . ft Barbara Schleicher, on the right, listens to business being conducted as she presides over a meeting of the Future Business Leaders of S.H.S. Seated behind typewriters which will one day be the symbol of their chosen professions. Future Business Leaders attend a meeting of their organization. Stressed at these meetings are the do's and don't's for good office behavior. Mrs. Peters was the sponsor this term. We Investigate Careers of All Types. Donna Kirchner presides over a meeting of the Future Nurses Club of S.H.S. This club is an active one under the sponsorship of Mrs. Carol Mac- Crindle, school nurse. The Future Nurses went to several hospitals to visit this year, so that they could evaluate them pending their going into training themselves. This club sponsors a scholarship of $100 each year to send a worthy student into nurse's training. The Library Assistants' Club at S.H.S. is one of the workingest clubs we have. Here we see a sample of the type of work these girls do when they are on duty in the library. Ellouise Handwerk, behind the desk, sees to it that Richard Musselman, Reynold Lorah, Richard Hoffman, and David Hinkle are served with the books they need. They Supply Book Service Tea, anyone? Miss Koch waits patiently as our Library Club president, Linda Koch, pours her a cup of tea. During the spring season, one of the outstanding events is the Library Tea. The refreshments are served right in the library by the club members, and guests who have been invited are supposed to browse around among the books. Male members of the faculty by no means feel out of place at the tea party. Indeed, most of them are absorbed in enthusiastic conversation. These two pictures show the Senior Tri-Hi-Y Club in the midst of a busy season. Projects this year included not only a Sweetheart Ball in February but also a car- wash in May. Oh-those car-wash hands! Proceeds from such projects are sent to YMCA World Service funds. Here Spirits Are Refreshed. The girls are all set to vote on an important matter, as President Harriet Solt conducts the meeting of the Sophomore Tri-Hi-Y. One of the worth-while projects carried on by this club this year was the selling of S.H.S. stationery to support World Service. These girls were proud to be the first group to use a picture of our new school in this way. Training for the development of good Christian virtues is the idea behind the H.-Y Club. Under the guidance of Mr. Kreidler, these boys are being taught the principles of responsible leadership for the betterment of the world in which they live. Leader Kreidler reads the Standards of Conduct to his Hi-Y boys during a meeting. A Christian example is the basis for good Christian leader- ship. Budding photographers have a club which enables them to talk about their hobby, get pointers on new ideas and methods of taking better pictures. Several of these boys take pictures for our Reflections and Slate during the year and add to their store of photographer's lore through practical experience. Behold our Photography Club! What? No gals? Mr. Donald Jones will have to check on that. Our Hobbies Are Fun! A display of art work showing the Pennsylvania Dutch Motif livens the corridors near the art room. M6 Boys and girls interested in things arty enjoy the Art Club and its many projects and problems. Mr. Donald Jones, advisor, can always find time in his busy schedule to help these students further their individual talents, be it in painting, sketching, tile or mosaic work. The beautiful art room with its fabulous equipment makes it a joy to belong to this club. Mathematics to some people is fun. Juniors and Seniors of Slatington High School this year have the opportunity for the first time to join a Mathematics Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Russell Stettler. A slide rule ' some of us would say. What's a slide rule? Not so these fellows and gals who are here shown learning the intricacies of this versatile mathematics aid: they find it easy to compute now. Our Clubs Render Service Last year's International Relations Club has been given a new name — the Language Club. Eligible are all students who have taken languages during their high school years. Miss Vicki Kokolus, advisor, is proud to report that this is a real service dub, annually giving funds to send CARE packages to needy citizens in different parts of the world. Pictured is President Diane Schaeffer, presiding over one of the club's monthly meetings in the language class room. THE SLATE Judy Lilly as editor-in-chief of The Slate this year, has done an excellent task of putting out our S.H.S. newspaper. With the literary advice of Mrs. Edith Roeder, the sports-news help of Mr. William Reese, the technical and production assistance of Mr. Gordon Kemp, The Slate has advanced leagues in reporting activities around our school. We look forward to another year of good, or even better, newspapers! Outstanding Leaders VARSITY S The Varsity S Club is outstanding because belonging to it are all the people who have won sports S's during their high school careers. A good example of the type of student belonging to this organiza- tion is Larry Jones, who has been faithful and active in most sports at S.H.S. during the time he has been a student here. We point to him also with pride because his sports and academic activities have enabled him to obtain a scholarship at an outstanding college. DRAMATIC Under the direction of Mr. Carl Trollinger, the Dramatic Club this year had several projects in make- up art and reading of plays. Several of these students really put forth their skill in the thespian art by acting in the Junior or Senior Play. Build Outstanding Organizations. VISUAL AIDS Mr. Earl Bender demonstrates some photography equipment to the stu- dents in the Visual Aids Club. The club is most active nearly every day when visual aids materials are taken from room to room for use during classes. The Visual Aids Club is a real service organization and deserves a vote of thanks! The Pro and Con Club this year sponsored an assembly program which was most interesting to all of us. Slatington High School stu- dents had the opportunity to listen to a debate between Lehigh Uni- versity students (Bryan Sckyrms and Thomas Gilhool) and Univer- sity of Pennsylvania students (James Brown and Marvin Gal- fand). They debated the question: Resolved: That Congress should have the power to override the decisions of the Supreme Court. Mary Ann Haas was emcee that morning. We Build “Speak-Ability ” Yearly we have the Junior Declama- tion Contest during the month of February. Here we see our Class of 1960 on the night of the Junior Dec ' Seated: Beverly Fritz, Joan Kern, Carol Grammes, and Ellouise Handwerk. Standing: winner among the boys. Dale Ringer; Judy Lilly Mr. Coombs, judge; Diane Kennell; girls' division winner, Brenda Kreid- ler; and Larry Neff. Not only is the contest a real test of skill; it is an opportunity for us to spend an entertaining evening participating in a school activity. Come mid-August each year. Coaches Snyder and DeQuinqua recruit all the boys available for football season and haul them down to training camp for a couple of weeks. One of these training-camps scenes appears here. We caught the boys climbing the steps and found that most of them are seniors this year. You recognize Allen Rex, Ronnie Hughes, and Keith Hand- werk, don't you? Pictures Rebuild Memories Think of it! Fifty years have passed quickly for this group, the Class of 1910. We were so happy to have them with us at the night of Commencement. They were celebrating their fiftieth reunion with a dinner in the cafeteria and choice seats at Commencement. It is notable that one of our 1910 graduates gave the 1960 class its Commencement address. Our speaker is Mr. Everett, second from right. Magazine campaign time at S.H.S. is the time when each person vies with the next to make his sales grow higher and higher. Money from the campaign helps pay for our Antrim programs and for our other student activities. Here we see Brenda Kreidler both from the front (left) and from the back (right) as she and her cohorts put up the day's sales on the bulletin-board thermometer. 4j ‘A i.

Measure, fit, lift . . . measure, fit, lift—a continuing process all that Saturday morn- ing made us feel that we never would get a pagoda erected. Gaily-garbed Donna Kirchner and Carol Grammes pause in the entrance with escorts Terry Chandler and Ronnie Lien- hart. Doesn't our Japanese setting look beautiful? they are exclaiming. We Said, “Sayonara, Hurry! Hurry! The wading pool is leaking and running all over 'Wimp's' floor! We can laugh at it now, but we hastily formed a bucket brigade then. Believe us, plans were changed in a hurry. We see Donna and Joan man- handling those buckets. Lois Williams and Ronnie Lienhart relax in the teachers' corner after a strenu- ous morning of moving, fencing, and building. I can't wait until tonight! says Lois. Seniors. Don and Carol try out the seat in the Japanese pagoda. What a nice surprise we had when Advisors Evelyn Naylor and Bill Reese came to the Senior Farewell in Japanese costume. After her crowning, our Prom Queen, Karen Rauch, posed for this picture with escort Dick Cole. She's just our type! Golly! Doesn't it seem as though our Junior Prom was the best ever? We'll always remember it this way. What a South-Seas Paradise! Merry makers of the evening are shown dancing for the new Queen of the Junior Prom. Looks like everyone had a ball! Celebrities attending the prom were our class advisors. Miss Naylor and Mr. Reese, as well as our class officers, Judy Lilly, Joan Kern, Keith Handwerk, and Terry Chandler. Queen Karen and Escorl Dick want you to re- member that South Paci- fic Island that we made ourselves! Mr. Trollinger gives the production gang of the Junior Play some last-minute instructions before the dress rehearsal. Tomorrow night is the opener, he says, and we've got to put it across better than ever before. So, let's go! Willie, our hero, struggles against one of his spinster aunts. Wouldn't you? She's always trying to stuff him with that vitamin compound. Our Junior Play last year was a howling success. (Well, the audience was howling all the time, anyhow.) Inner Willie was the tale of a young man who has been reared by his three spinster aunts. The fun only began when Inner Willie ' a sort of evil genius, appeared on the scene to push our hero into some real (and unheard-of) decisions about girls and proms and such. Delightful Dramas How can anyone ask a nice girl like Joan for a date, when there is an audience like this; and the Inner Willie is always there to snoopervise? Gee! Everyone's got a girl but me ; our hero ponders. And look at the monster I drew! At rehearsals and behind the scenes, there are always these fellows to give a real hand in producing the play. Of course, they can't resist a bit of horse-play like this now and then! A curtain call — the play was a tremendous success. First Row: Larry Jones, John Kist- hardt, Wayne Danner, Dale Ringer. Second Row: Sara Neff, Sandra Fritzinger, Judy Lilly, Diane Kennell, Joan Kern, Linda Gru- ber, Brenda Gruber. “The Man ' — Mr. Whitesides, has a stubborn streak and everyone — just everyone — stands by wondering how to cope with such a disaster. 4 Last-minute touchup for the hair, last-minute look at those lines. “Golly, lads,“ sez our heroine. “My stomach is sinking! Remember the story of The Man Who Came to Dinner, who fell down, broke a hip, and stayed? Well, our seniors this year did a fabulous job of producing the play. Dale Ringer's excellent act- ing created The Man with all his eccentricities for us. Mr. Jrol- linger always does a tremendous task in casting. Reveal Thalian Talents Look at these gay dogs — awaiting their turn to make an entrance. Doesn't Don Peters look good in that moustache? Girls!

(It seems.it's fashionable to listen to their con- versation.) Barbara Schleicher touches up the make-up fpr “The Man, Dale Ringer. Wait around a minute and you can see her put on that white beard, too. The morning of December 19 dawned bright and early for these decorators. Here are several seniors decorating the tree, wrapping gift boxes, and crowding around Smith Hall in general. What are they doing? They're getting ready for the Christmas Dance, 1959 version! Miss Naylor, Sara Neff, and the boys in the background are trying to make this dance as nice as possible, since it's the first Smith Hall dance of the year. With Sleighs and Hearts “Oh, look, a sleigh! And it's not any old sleigh, either, we'll have you know. It's Santa Claus' own sleigh, just loaded with gifts of all kinds for all of us and all of you. Time to dance has arrived and we see some of our friends dancing about the Christmas tree. For this first dance of the season, many of our old graduates come back to join us. The Christmas dance, sponsored by the Senior class, comes at a busy time of year. However, it is always possible to get people out to decorate and to support the dance. SWEETHEART BALL Beautiful Senior girls! Handsome escorts! They are dancing the Sweetheart Waltz. In a moment Janice Szapacs, our mistress of ceremonies, will tell us who are the 1960 Sweetheart and her attendant. Oh, Look! The men faculty members have chosen Sandra Kibler as the Sweetheart and Joan Kern as her attendant. The choice of Sandy as the Queen ended a perfectly marvelous evening of sweethearts. We Decorate to Dance A snowstorm outside, a ball inside. We all had fun dancing to the music of Don Trainer and his orchestra. We felt that we were all real sweethearts that night. This is the only chance we'll have to sit up here! Busy Tri-Hi-Y girls and helpers assisted by Miss Miller look over their finished product—the valentine throne which will be graced by the Queen. A Summer Place Smith Hall is the scene of another lovely dance. This time it's the Senior Farewell, the sophomore class' way of saying good-bye to the departing seniors. Here we see the garden effect that the sophomores worked so hard to accomplish. A Summer Place it really is with its swing, dogwood tree, fountain, and picket fence. Our guests seem to be enjoying themselves as they dance to the music of Don Trainer and his orchestra. Betsy Ringer and her refreshment committee worked hard to supply us with the food for the evening. As folks flocked to the table, all around could be heard the demand, I want a cube with a cherry in it for my lemonade. Pat and Dennis again cooperate on the doorway of Smith Hall gymnasium. Dennis has the height to reach and Pat has the artistic talent needed for such projects. Patsy Salash and Dennis lazorcheck are finding a picket fence real work. As the moment they are painting a brick base for our garden's fountain. Don't get the idea that these folks have been unlaxing like this all day. We're just finished! I nearly died laughing! we all said after Fun Night. No, these fellows aren't nose painting. They're in a pie-eating contest. We'll never forget it. Dale Ringer and his girl came to pick up MaryAnn and her date for the Senior Fare- well. They're all set for a dancing good time. Pictures Rebuild Memories Remember the Roman Banquet last year? That is one of our good memories of the 1958-59 school year. Here we are in our togas, awaiting the first Are these guys always playing cards? Here are Marlin, Howard, and Dale waiting for the gals to get ready. From the serious looks, we can't tell who's winning. Nancy Duris looks frightened as she leads the girls in the procession to obtain diplomas on June 17. ''Who can sing so early in the morn- ing? Well, we've been up for a long, long time. We're on our way to Washing- ton, D. C. John, Jean- ette, and Diane are striking up the tune. I never believed that we'd get here! exclaims Sandy, as she leans on her suitcase. Some of the girls have finally found their rooms in D. C. and are ready to unpack. Sandra is rooming with Joan and Brenda. That's more like it. Finally, after a shower and a change into more comfortable clothes, the girl relax before hopping into bed. Here we see Sandy, MaryAnn, and Joan. A Glorious Two Days in D.C. We learned that Washington, D. C, is a large city with many places to visit. As is traditional, we had our pictures taken in a group (busdrivers, chaperones, and all) with the Capitol as a backdrop. John, Douglas, and Robert get in some cards in an informal moment. We surely don't have much time to waste, if we're to see all of Washington! What's the game, boys— pinochle? Sightseers all—Linda, Bruce, and Jeanette pose in the foreground, as Terry photographs Joan behind them. Harry and Lois are relaxing by leaning against the slab that carries a quote by Abraham Lincoln. Climaxed Our Senior Year. On the senior trip to Washington, there is not only sightseeing to occupy our minds. Fond parents, relatives, and friends gaze solemnly at the Class of 1960 as the processional (encouraged by Pomp and Circumstance on organ and piano) wends its way down the auditorium aisle. This is our Commencement night, an occasion of dignity and a real beginning of life for most of us. What does the Lord require of you? asks Pastor Paul P. Haas of the United Church of Christ, as he preaches the Baccalaureate message to the Class of 1960. He gives us all good advice as he answers his own question, but to do justice,, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God. How wonderful if we build our lives around this advice! Led by Valedictorian MaryAnn Haas and Salutatorian Larry Neff, the Class of 1960 begins the crossing of the threshold into the future. The seniors are on the way into the auditorium to hear the Baccalaureate Sermon. A Secure Framework Is Ours. Behold our five Commencement speakers! Ellouise Handwerk, representing the college preparatory curriculum; Barbara Schleicher, the business education curriculum; MaryAnn Haas, our Valedictorian; Larry Neff, our Salutatorian; and Richard Greene, representing the general curriculum—all are in the line-up for a picture. We March Touard Future Building. One by one the members of the Class of '60 come proudly forward to receive their diplomas. Linda Koch smiles sweetly at Mr. Edwards as he shakes her hand. The big moment has finally arrived for Linda Horn. Along with the diplomas goes a handshake from Mr. Robert Edwards, president of Northern Lehigh School Board, and his congratulations and best wishes for a successful future. To the left is Principal Herman Snyder who is handing the diplomas to Mr. Edwards to present. In the background are some of Linda's classmates who have already received theirs. The business staff of Reflections 1960 be- gan early in the fall of 1959 to work out a budget for the yearbook. Sandra Kibler, Brenda Gruber, Joan Kern, and Mae Rein- heimer began by figuring out first where the money goes—from there, where it has to come from. They are filing names for the patron list here. Rosemary Lacko, Lois Marsh, Felicia Evans, Ellen Smith, and Kathleen Kern made up the advertising staff. It was up to these gals to see to it that advertising was sold, patrons contacted and yearbooks paid for on the installment plan. What is your total? asks Ellen as she tallies up the receipts. The literary staff must write the stories, find good captions, advise the photograph- ers what pictures are needed, choose the most suitable shots to record the mem- ories of the class. Here are Diane Schaef- fer, Editor-in-Chief MaryAnn Haas, Art Editor Janice Reinsmith, Literary Editor Brenda Kreidler, Larry Neff, Carol Grammes, and James Evans. They are choosing pictures for various pages at the moment. We Work to Preserve Fond Memories. 136 Our senior photographers, Gary Gaukler and Mark Queen, examine the fruits of their labor. These boys often had to meet with the literary staff to ascertain what to snap next. Mrs. Peters and Miss Miller, ad- visors for Reflections 1960, stop in the corridor to talk over a small problem in connection with the copy. Typing out the copy and setting it up ready for the printing company, we found our pro- duction staff: Barbara Schleicher, Judy Klep- pinger, Linda Zellner, Margaret Scott, Sara Neff, Gloria Kern, Barbara Schneck, and Karen Miller. (Not shown was David Kreiss.) Mrs. Peters, I can't get all this copy in the space allotted. What shall I do now? was a very familiar problem for these girls. We call our yearbook Reflections because it reminds us all of the years we spent at S.H.S. May the Class of 1960 enjoy its many reflections as it looks back through the pages of this book! Gary Gaukler, chief photographer, snaps a pic- ture as someone else snaps him. Gary and Mark counted on Mark Grim, junior photographer, to help them at times.

We wish to attempt to acknowledge the kindnesses bestowed upon us; however, it is impossible to express properly our thanks here. We are indebted to: The Allentown Morning Call for many pictures. Mr. and Mrs. George Conrad for their better-than-ever pictures and personal interest in Slatington High School and its yearbook. Miss Miller and Mrs. Peters for all their time, patience, and guidance as advisors for Reflections 1960. To Mark Grim, our junior photographer, for all his work as student photographer. To Mr. Matt Lynott of the Taylor Publishing Company for his advice and help throughout the year. To Mr. Richard Morris for permission to use pictures he took of S.H.S. from the air. To all others who have helped us make Reflections I960 a success, we say, Thank you so much! Custodians Clean, shiny tloors, tidy classrooms, and a well-kept school in general are the responsibilities of these four men who deserve our respect for the work they have done throughout the year. We can never thank them enough for taking seriously those things we take for granted. Our maintenance staff: William Jones, Milton Snyder, Ralph Jones, and Paul Zellner.
