The potentialities of these keys have been developed during our school years, and we have been taught to recognize those essential to direct and carry us on to o o J ultimate success and happiness. Under the watchful supervision of our teachers, our inherent curiosity, a potential key to discovery, has been aroused and exercised in the habit of original thinking. As a result we are entrusted with the mightv kev to new ideas and O O J J progress. The knowledge gained and the challenges met in the classroom have stimulated our ambition and encouraged self-confidence, keys to personal achievement. Participation in extra-curricular activities has helped us acknowledge toler- ance, unselfishness and co-operation as keys to social success. It is our sincere wish that this Torch of 1958 may unlock the door of remini- scence and serve as a pictorial and tangible reminder of our high school days and of the valuable keys we hold in our hands.

JAMES HINDS DEDICATION We are proud to honor a teacher who commands the loyalty and respect of his students by his own exemplary record of service to Sunbury High School. He deserves our special gratitude and commendation for the time and energy he has concentrated on the vital job of directing and developing many of our athletic programs. His endeavors are not confined, however, to these ac- tivities, for as an instructor his students have come to depend upon him for enlightenment and inspiration. The en- thusiastic support and encouragement he so willingly gives have strengthened our faith in ourselves and convinced us that most obstacles can be overcome if we try hard enough. We, the Class of 1958, are privileged to dedicate our Torch to Mr. James Hinds. 7 Seated, Left to Right—William A. Pope, Russell M. Johnston, Helen Schaffer, Donald Treon, William H. Betz, president.

Board of Education Superintendent’s Message J. FRED JONES, Superintendent of Sunbury Area Schools Pennsylvania State University, B.S., M.E. May I congratulate the class of 1958 on its graduation from the Sunbury Area High School. You are about to witness some tremendous changes in educational procedure the like of which were unheard of a few years ago. Sputnik” has had its impact upon American education. People at last are finding out that nothing is as important as an educated and trained individual. Education must receive top priority if we are to retain our status as a leading world power. We have lost world prestige since the launching of the world’s first ground satellite by Russia. Our schools are no longer a luxury but an absolute necessity. The American family-and the American public must decide how great an edu- cational effort is needed to achieve this educa- tional breakthrough, no matter what it costs. The urgency of our time requires that the yardstick for education must be need and not the dollar. The process of enlarging and refining the edu- cational program to meet the changing needs must be accepted by the American people. The con- stant appraisal and improvement of all public services including the schools is not only a right O JO hut a responsibility of everyone. Since the doors to new worlds of knowledge are always opening, may we rededicate ourselves in this decade of decision to our unshaken faith in our public schools, which mean so much to the American way of life. 10 Principal’s Message FREDERICK PADGETT Principal I leidelberg College, A.B. Bucknell University, M.A. When this book comes into your possession, you will have one or two more years to prepare for your life work or will, as a senior, be ready to end your public school experiences. With all looking toward the completion of your school work, it is wise to pause and say—and then WHAT? You can consider college, marriage, or just go to work. Being an American at least makes it possible lor you to have a choice. Would it not be a wise thing to do to think things over and look around? Remember it is where you are going and where you arrive that counts, not where or what you leave behind. For the present, Uncle Sam may take priority over any other choice you may make. Or perhaps we should say that military service should be added to your list of choices. Probably you want to make money—a lot of it. All right, go ahead and make money. But remember other people are trying to make money too. We have many examples of young people who did make money. Success stories are all around you. These people made plenty of money, but don’t forget that they had original ideas and knew the meaning of hard work. Yes, you can make money. But let's put it this way. Money for its own sake is a curse. Money for what it can produce and do for others is a blessing. Go ahead—make money, but also learn how to live. Why is it that one person, demonstrating no brilliance, comes through with notable success, while the genius with a legion of talents ends up by being an also-ran? The difference lies in their respective sense of values, ambitions, and comparative will to do. Consider those who were successful and continued so throughout life, and those who made money but did not learn how to live, thus ending as failures. You will experience a whole series of black eyes, skinned elbows, and heart- breaks. How long will you let them last and what will you do about them? Grab a handful of rainbows today, and when trouble, despair, and disap- pointment confront you—when you are at the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on. At the close of your school years, a new day awaits you. You are just Beginning. LOIS M. BURGESS Secretary 11 RHODA J. PASSMORE Home and School Coordinator Pennsylvania State University, A.B.

From the lazy days of summer, we plunged, once again, into the mental race of school work. We had to re-adjust our ways to different teachers. During this first marking period, we had to discover which teachers demand- ed originality and which ones preferred answers copied from the textbook. Last year in history class we memorized important events; this year there is the added and very difficult problem of under- standing human relations in problems of democracy class. This period was, of course, complicated by extracurricular activities. In which ones shall we participate? After that decision was made, there was the problem of scheduling. The boys are proud of their markmanship, but Boys’ Rifle Club and Torch meetings often clash. Girls’ Rifle Club is exciting, but special Chorus meetings are often necessary on the same night. After finally having solved these problems, we settled down into the steady grind of producing satisfactory answers for our teach- ers’ multitudinous questions. This grind continued, broken by exciting football, basketball, and wrestling matches and a joyous Christmas holiday, until about the second week of January when the tempo was suddenly increased. The volume of work multiplied to enable us to finish the semester work and obtain a day or two of reviewing in class for the coming exams. When this frightening episode ended, the steady grind was immediately resumed. Spring approached rapidly, stealing our thoughts from text- books to the re-awakened world outside. We began to think eagerly of swimming, picnics, motor boat rides, and the trips we plan to take. Our senior year was climaxed by the beautiful splendor of the Prom, the inspirational Baccalaureate Service, and the dignified Commencement Exercises. At the end of our senior year, we wistfully recalled the past years. We’ll miss school; the sense of unity, the friendly guidance of our teachers, the striving to make a good future, the triumph and failure, laughter and sorrow of twelve years. But then, we take only a brief glimpse at the past and gaze ahead wonderingly into the future, hoping that we will always orow in learning, culture, and belief in God. t 7 7 Senior Class SUZANN STROUP Secretary LYNN SNYDER Treasu-rer MR.

JANET ERIKSOI Featurcs Editor Adviser The Legislators The Student Council, in its second year of operation, experienced a very successful year. Under the sanction of both the Pennsylvania and National Associations of Student Councils, capable leadership helped stimulate the operation of the Student Council. MR. I-REDBRICK PADGETT, Principal, presents the ratified Student Council Constitution to Mr. Emerson Derr, Adviser. A constitution, which presents ten objectives to become the instrument for a better school com- munity, was drawn up by a committee at the years beginning and presented to the body for debate and approval and later ratified by the Stu- dent Council. The forty-two members, who represent each homeroom in pairs of two, and the Executive Board meet twice a month under the adviserships of Mr. Emerson Derr, and Mr. Frederick Padgett o to discuss projects to be undertaken and important business.

Around the World,” ”2000 A. D.” and When Grandad Was a Lad,” the latter performed dur- ing the Homecoming game which honored the unbeatable team of 1927, were a few of the spec- tacular football drills performed. After the frustrating season of football drills, seven-thirty practices, pep chapels, and parades, plans were made for the Christmas assembly and winter and spring concerts. Various rhythms, fused harmonious chords, and solo features characterized those seasonal concerts. Music and concerts delicately and meticulously presented for appreciative audiences proved again that “Music is the universal language.” Band plays “Aloha” while in sailboat formation during the “Around the World” drill. 53 Front Row, Left to Right—M.

At alternate meetings, faculty members and student teachers were guest speakers. Mrs. Au- gusta Watkins, faculty physical education instruc- tor, spoke of careers in physical education. Miss Grace Beck, elementary supervisor, gave qualities and requirements of elementary school teaching. F. T. A. Day, which was the main project of the year, made it possible for members of the club to visit elementary and junior high school classes in the particular field which interested them. Other activities were welfare projects, fund-raising sales, and the visiting of several colleges to obtain 7 O O a clearer vision of college life. MRS.

Agriculturists Organized several years ago, the Future Farmers of America is still one of the most active groups in the school. Under the able direction of Mr. Robert Drick, this organization has been very closely related with the vocational agriculture course in the Sunburv High School. G J O Their objectives consist of learning about and working with modern farming methods which will bring improved results in crop, poultry, and livestock. Frequent field trips and special projects, which add to their practical know-how, are undertaken by the club as a whole, and also by individual members. Each year, the boys visit the State Farm Show at Harrisburg to see new developments in the field of agriculture, and to enter their own special projects. Mr. Drick also directs a sub-group of freshman mem- bers, who will, as those before them, contribute their abilities in developing better future farmers of America. MR.

Jewelry and food delicacies were sold successfully, and the members used their profits to purchase white blazers trimmed in red piping. The F. 11. A. emblem was awarded at mid-semester to the outstanding workers of these projects. 1 he Hallowe’en float which the girls decorated using “Candvland” as a theme and upon which Jackie Hendricks presided as queen, placed first, winning $100.00 Program meetings featured demonstrations of gift wrap- ping, table centerpieces, hats, and interior decorating plus talks on careers in modeling and hat designing. The club sponsored a Valentine Party and an Easter Egg hunt for the orphanage children, while one-fourth of the members received individual names of the children to help celebrate birthdays and Christmas season. During the spring the club presented the childrens ward of the Sunbury Community Hospital with stuffed toys, books, and other needed materials. As a culmination of the year’s work, the group spon- sored a May Day Celebration. MRS. AUGUSTA WATKINS Co-Adviser MRS. DONNA McENTIRE Adviser Bottom Bow, Left to Bight-S. Miller, N. Hort, D.

The club’s purpose was to learn the safe use of firearms, to master marksmanship, and to develop sportsmanship. They meet every Tuesday evening in the High School Rifle Range under the supervision of Miss Joan Auten. To perfect their shooting skill, these girls fired in the prone, sitting, and kneeling positions at a target which was fifty feet away.

I wish to assure you that they have been happy years. We have observed your physi- cal, mental, and moral development through this period with a great deal of interest. Nobody knows better than you the contributions that competitive athletics, in this instance football, has given to that growth. Each one of you is a better man for having participated in the most demanding of all sports. During this period of time you have exulted in the jov of winning and suffered in the bitterness of defeat. Aside from the winning and losing of the game you have learned the true meaning of cooperation and sacrifice. The experiences you have acquired on the playing field are not available in the classroom or in your textbooks, but the con- tribution they made to the shaping of your future is of extreme importance. Cherish the good and forget the bad. Utilize to its full extent that which you have learned as an athlete and a scholar. I wish you a fond farewell not only as football players but as friends and companions as well. It is my sincere wish that those behind you maintain the same high standards which you and those before you have so ably set. James F. Hinds Front Row, Left to Rigtit—K. Beaver, D. Williams, C.

Mantz. ®) a Summary Lewistown Upsets Sunbury 26-0 Slick ball-handling, the deception of Audice Rodkey, and the Levvistown backfield proved to give Sunbury a rough time on this Friday IB. The Black Panthers man- aged to get one TD in every period. The final break for the Owls came when Bruce Smith recovered a Brown fumble late in the fourth period. A fourth down pass, Beaver to Walters, gave the Owls a first down on the nine- yard line, but the Panthers’ defense tightened and pre- vented the score. Berwick Ciphers Owls 6-0 Converting a second period fumble into a TD, and then thwarting the deep penetrations of Sunbury, the Bulldogs downed a much improved Sunbury club. The break came when Sunbury fumbled on their own three and Floyde Edwards, reserve end, recovered the pigskin. The Bulldogs promptly scored. In the fourth quarter the Owls scored two TD’s. One was called back because of an off-sides infraction, and one was fumbled into the end zone for a touchback. Fighting Owls Overrun Pottsville 25-0 Sunbury got into the win column with a fleeting vic- tory over the Pottsville eleven. Despite the lag of action in the first period, the Owls overcame inertia late in the second period when Jim Campbell, S. H. S. end, picked up a loose ball on the ten and ran into the end zone. The spirit of victory flamed in the third quarter, and the stage was set for the fourth period action. In the first play from scrimmage, Delbaugh bolted through the right side for the score. Minutes later, Sunbury took charge on the Potts- ville three after recovering a Crimson fumble, and Del- baugh bulled over right tackle to make it 19-0, Sunbury. Later in the period, as Shock faded to pass, Jim Campbell bolted in from end to jar the ball into the arms of Gary Sites, who scampered thirty yards for the Owls’ final TD. Coal Township Demons Edge Owls 14-12 After the Demons’ co-captain, John Kobilis, electrified the crowd with an eighty-five yard TD run on the open- ing kick-off, Sunbury settled down to good second and third quarters. Early in the fourth period, Bob Delbaugh slammed his way twenty-three yards for a TD. Coal Township managed to score once again, but the Owls didn’t give up. Later, Walters banged over from the one for our final TD. of Games Sunbury Smashes Norry 39-0 Sunbury inaugurated a series of decisive plays in the initial period of the game and managed to accumulate a 23-0 score by halftime. Although the Pineknotters re- taliated with all their available strength, they proved to be no match for the revenge-minded Owls. Final TD’s by Smith and Walters ensured our victory. Milton Panthers Hoax Sunbury 19-6 The pouncing Panthers of Milton High numbed the victory-hungry Owls of Sunbury on a wet turf at Milton. The Black Panthers more than matched the twenty-three yard run of Dale Walters in the fourth period. Milton had scored all their points before the final period and had gained revenge for their 12-0 defeat in 1956. Siiamokin Jolts Owls 26-0 Strong-legged Jerry Haupt, Shamokin halfback, proved his worth against the Blue and White gridders in scoring two of the Greyhounds' four TD’s. Sunbury totaled eighty of its 115 net yards in the fourth period, aided by the hard running of Galen “Legs” Campbell and Ernie Reichley. Sunbury Bows to Tornadoes of Mt. Carmel 37-13 Even though the Tornadoes scored in every period, the Owls were not to be shut out. In the fourth period, Paul White returned a punt seventy-five yards for an apparent touchdown; but it was nullified by a clipping penalty. Soon after this, Sunbury moved seventy yards in five plays to strike paydirt. Another run of sixty-nine yards by Bob Delbaugh added six more points for the Sunburians. Danville Trumps Owls 32-13 Sunbury High’s pigskin enthusiasts suffered another blow in the game with Danville on the S. H. S. Memorial Field, when the Ironmen triumphed over the Owls. Galen Campbell and Ernie Reichley tallied the only Blue and White scores of the evening. Campbell raced fifteen yards off left tackle in the first period for a TD, and Reichley sneaked over from the one for another TD as the fourth quarter began. Despite the rough season suffered by the gridders, many happy memories and friendships will be theirs to share for years to come.

Patton, a graduate of the Sunbury Area 11 igh School class of 1957, passed away. His friendly personality and high moral standards, combined with the boundless en- ergy and determination which made him an outstanding athlete, earned the love and respect of all who met him. We deeply grieve his loss and pray that God will comfort his family and help them to realize that each of us is a little better for having known “Bill.” This page is therefore presented as a last- ing memorial to William C. Patton. 74 Standing, Left to Right—C. Inns, C. Herman, G. Fecker, J. Gross, M. McHenry, R. Leib, F. Seal, G. Moyer, R. Acker. Kneeling—Manager, V. Woodcock; B. Scoviak, R. Gamby, D.

Varsity Basketball COACH’S MESSAGE For years to come sports-minded S. H. S. fans will talk about the unprecedented, 20 game unde- feated season of 1957-58. The games will be re- played, scores quoted, and the natural comparison of various teams and players will be made. Regardless of what actions are taken, one fact about this year’s team will remain undisputable. Each player gave everything he had for the team. The result was the best all around, most evenly bal- anced basketball team that Sunbury High School has ever had. It will be a long time before the combined tal- ents of this year’s team will ever be equaled in S. H. S. To each of the boys my best wishes for their future success and happiness. It has been one of the highlights of my life to have been lucky enough to have been associated with you! It has been a once in a lifetime! You have not only been out- standing athletes, but you’ve represented S. H. S. as oentlemen. Mav the success of your endeavors O J J be a guidepost for those of the future.

Since it was not designed primarily for the tall or heavy hoy, all boys regardless of size can participate and reap the benefits that can be derived from competition. Wrestling is recognized not only for physical development, but for character training as well. The thoughtful athlete realizes the value of this sport as a mental and moral training guide. The qualities of sportsmanship and fair play that make an athlete a good boy, in later life make him a good man. E. J.

Baseball COACH’S MESSAGE At the time 1 am writing this article we are looking for- ward to spring and baseball. What happened during the season is already known to you, and we hope the results are favorable. Last year we started the season with practically an en- tirely new team; however, this year we have men with experience for many of the positions, and things look brighter. To a fine group of seniors, who are graduating, we wish you the best of everything; and you can be sure we won’t forget you. F. C. Hatton FRANCIS C.

Mr. Lapinsky, the varsity coach, appropriately summed up his feelings toward the squad when he said, “This team is the best group of fellows and the most cooperative group of ball players ever to come out of Sunbury I ligh School.” His statement is based upon evidence; never before in the history of our school has a varsity basketball team defeated all of its opponents in both exhibition and league competition. We, the students of Sunbury High School, wish to extend our congratu- lations to the team and their coach for a job well done. JOHN JACK LAPINSKY Coach Bottom, Left to Big Iu—K. Beaver, B. Swope, E.

Benner can’t miss as he hits his eighth field goal of the night. The crowning highlighted the evening. Their majesties reign. Oriental In mid-May, the juniors and seniors danced in the “Orient” to the soft, mellow music of Mai Arter and his orchestra, who rode in a Chinese dragon boat. While gliding beneath multi-colored lanterns and parasols, dancers were enchanted by the snow-covered volcano in the back- ground. Refreshments were served from a charming red pagoda, while a Chinese garden scene attracted the rev- elers as they danced by. Leading the Grand March, King and Queen, Peter Carpenter and Kay Gaglione were acclaimed by the dancers. A party, sponsored by the Jaycees in the same Oriental scene, followed with comedy entertainers, who performed for Queen Sandra Moll and all her subjects. More dancing followed as sleepy, happy couples grad- ually exited from an enchanting evening in Oriental Par- adise. Around they whirl in Oriental splendor. Paradise Music fills the air. Social chatter rules between dances. 89 Can’t find a rule to cover that hold! CANDID GLIMPSES The fourth period gym class will remember that when Gloria Riland got her hands on a hockey stick she became delirious and started swinging for our blue sneakers. Thank goodness for our shin guards. For three years Jane Garinger and Bonnie Hoffman competed for the national road runner title as they jogged from the Sixth Ward to the high school daily. Those weird sounds heard emanating from the wrestling room were those of luckless Bob Bartholomew yelling for mercy as he was being cut with the scissor hold. Corridor congestion very often resulted when Gary Lytle and Bill Nunamaker would resort to making U-turns without signaling. Lynn Wagner and Virginia Graybill are still trying desperately to recover lost ponies before they get into the wrong hands— TEACHERS. That wasn't a train whistle heard in Miss Kawel's fifth period study; it was Gary (the mustache) Wert sleeping. The reason Bob Shotsberger looked so sad when Christmas va- cation was over was because Santa didn’t bring him fuel for his train. (A bucket of coal.) Bonnie Schlegel put up a gallant fight trying her best to be- come an All-American broken-field runner as she executed her twenty-yard swing throughout the football campaign. We can still hear the deafening roar of Joe Scott and Jim 1 Osman dragging on Walnut Street in their customized hotrods. Ken (the girl hunter) Beaver will remember his ballerina dances as he looked for pass receivers during a football game. No, that shake wasn't the pile-driver. It was Bill Getz being drilled on the action of a verb. Bill is all shook up. Mary Jablonski is still trying patiently to pry off all the gum she left sticking to the bottom of chairs in the library. Mary finds her nail file becoming very dull. Frank Keller, the “mad chemist, succeeded in producing a very obnoxious “smog effect that eventually fogged up the entire second floor. i The noontime confusion at Campbell’s was multiplied when i Janice Shaffer calmly crammed soda straws down your throat whenM| you persisted in shouting out six orders at a time. (And then™ some people had the nerve to change their mind.) Everybody ready? Let’s go. WANTED: Information leading to the recapturing of the people mentioned below.

I mused the salty breezes that now and then flitted by to cool my already parched back. “This is the life!” I muttered to myself as I lay there staring at the colossal rock formations off shore. I suddenly sat up, rubbing my eyes! What was before me? There on the rocks sat Ronald Diehl and Bob Whary sculpturing the face of Russell Witmer, President of the American Society for Underprivileged Hedgehogs. As I approached the rocks, the whole scene vanished from sight! “This sun is just too much!” I chided myself for spending more than my usual half hour on the beach. “Maybe a swim would help.” I dove deep into the cool breakers. Although seaweed was not plentiful along this shore, some tangled green mass marred my vision. 1 swam forward for a closer look. Parting the mass (which I later learned was the ultimate in oceanic camouflage as had been theorized by Allan Weise), 1 saw a crew of divers complete with all the ac- couterments of the profession. In their “Gear a la Gottshall,” they were working on the hull of a sunken galleon. The lead- er of the group looked like, yes, it was Caroline Eyster! Judy Graeff and Carol Fausey were her assistants. The searchers, having been commissioned by the “Keep Your Oceans Clean’ Committee with Sharon Runyan as chairman, hoped to find valuable portraits done by Ronald Nace. Bill Hornberger, the lone survivor of the tragedy, had listed the portraits of Janice Bailey, First Lady of the Greenhouse, and Kenneth Geise, in- ventor of the painless hypodermic needle, as part of the missing cargo. Digging in the deteriorated vessel, the divers uncovered a trunk. The corroded name plate bore the name Warren Brubaker, and contained several diaries kept by the famed musician. I signaled the crew good luck and returned to the surface. I did feel better, although I was becoming drowsy. My eyes were no sooner closed than the tranquility on the beach was broken by the clicking of movie cameras, shouts of direc- tors, and clamor of props being set into scenery. The M and W (Elizabeth Moyer and Mary Walters) Company was film- ing the “Beverly Zerbe Story,” a biography written for the cinema by her secretary and traveling companion Alice Van Buskirk. Suzanne Williams was cast in the lead, with Wil- liam Wary playing the male interest in the story. I recog- nized Marlin Reedy and Gary Smith, behind dark glasses, as aspirants to directors’ Oscars for this production. 92 FANTASY A commotion which centered at the base of a group of palms further prevented me from relax- ing. John Adams, Ronald Roshon, and John Cyr seemed to be attacking the trees with sprays, surgical equipment, and buckets all developed by Thomas Hepner. This apparatus, it became ap- parent, was being used to destroy or ferret out some pest. As they worked, there emerged from the tree Larry Leeser who was obviously their prey. He told them he had sought the palms as a refuge from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Although they were in sympathy with his ideas of social solitude, trespassing prosecution was deemed necessary. Two officers standing by, Larry Lund- quist and Bob Hackenberg remanded the prisoner to Aider- man Judy Doyle for arraignment. My attention was then turned to the horizon where mil- lionaire George Lark’s magnificent yacht, the SONDRA, was anchored. I picked up my binoculars, a gift from Larry Reitz, the design for which had been developed by George Putnam, and focused them on the ship. (I later learned that the manufacturing concern responsible for the mass produc- tion of the product was headed by Russell Leffler, Guy Bolton, and Jeffery Carr). On the starboard side of the vessel, some sort of rescue operation was taking place. Lynn Snyder and Bill Funk were floundering about in the foamy ocean, and Caroll Blank was standing on deck shouting out survival procedure. The es- sence of the scene seemed rather absurd to me because Lynn had become an Olympic swimming champion under the coaching of Barbara Furman! As I watched, the pair floated safely to the side after hav- ing swallowed some of William Z. Ruch’s buoyancy capsules, the ultra-modern life-saving device. I was becoming more sleepy by the minute and wanted desperately to close my eyes, when Phyllis Betz and Dot Yankoskie came strolling down the beach. Not having seen them for several years, I invited them to sit down for a chat. At length, they told me they should be returning to the swank Hotel Treaster where Marsha Forster, the distinguished socie- ty queen, was sponsoring a lavish cocktail party in honor of Arthur Rhoads, Sr., who was celebrating his appointment as president of the Bingaman-Bickle Business College. Sleep finally conquered me. When I opened my eyes again, I found myself alone in my dingy cell, thoughts of travel and fun still burning my mind. 93 Dedication of Senior Class Title of Book Subject Author Holding Hands With Dynamite Bruce Simpson Barbara Bright Man About Town Jerald Diehl Judy Gaugler Getting Away With Misbehavior Dane Leister Autobiography Night Life at the Rink Donna Reem Rita Leitzel Be Leery of Young Girls Harold Bastian Jerre Shipe Mischief Is a Brewin’ Judy Gaskins Patricia Hummel Patients Beware Ann Yoder Fred Reichley Girls Are for Laughs Harry Reichner Larry.
