However, success varies in mean- ing and degree in direct proportion to the stand- ards adopted by the ones who seek it. To attain success, lofty goals should be set and every human faculty brought into full play. Someone has said, Nothing succeeds like suc- cess. Small things, well done, provide the sti- muli and ability to accomplish greater things. True greatness lies in service rather than selfishness. One good deed for society is worth more than a hundred that are purely selfish. When an education and the development of skills are coupled with a sense of duty to God, Nation and neighbor, a successful and happy career is in the making. My best wishes for success are hereby ex- tended to the Class of 1951. Climb though the rocks be rugged. R. N. Keim Supervising Principal Believe It or ot Class of 1951 Faith is of great importance whether we be- lieve in it or not. Faith in God, faith in other persons, faith in one's self, faith in the wise ordering of Providence are a safeguard to good cheer, love and optimism. To believe that all is coming out well is of itself a powerful means of making it all come out well. l would not counsel imprudence or foolish shutting of one's eyes to the actual conditions of affairsg but the actual conditions of affairs is in the main, a good condition. Worry is usually unjustified. Things are not so bad as they seem. The world is kind, and God is in it. Optimism can always give a better account of itself than pessimism. Good cheer is to be chosen because it is likely to be based on truth and not falsehood. Motion and emotion are partners. We need them both if we would be efficient men and women. The seed of love, the love of a person, the love of country, the love of God are all planted, in the heart. Only through experience, work, play, sympathy, co- operation, joy and sorrow, hope and fear, pur- pose and prayer, can we hope to attain suc- cess. Wishing the best in life O. B.

Before we lcnew it we had walked the steps to fresh- men, our class adviser that year was Mr. Edwards, and our class officers were: Pres., Margaret VVilsong V. Pres., Stiles Caff- ney, Sec., Betty Paganog Treas., Bichard MacDonald. It was during this year we decided to talte part in activities: foot- ball, basketball, traclt, and baseball, along with girls hoelcey. Then before we knew it our last syl- lable of free time had faded into the past and on September 4, l9-18, we came to class as sophomores. VV e found our adviser was Mrs. Gish, and our officers were: Pres., Steve Gusting V. Pres., Stiles Caff- ney, Sec., Mildred Kramerg Treas., Charles W7olf. It was also during this year we par- ticipated in all sports, both boys and girls alilce. VVe also tools part in other activi- ties, such as the Bazaar, Christmas Pageant, Qperetta, Band Concert, class party, as- semblies, and student council. VVe closed the year with many unforgettable memo- ries, only to find ourselves a bit more adult as Iuniors. We began our year by choos- ing class officers: Pres., lack Trainog V.- Pres., Margaret YVilson: Sec., Ioan Hind- ermyerg Treas., Charles Wfolf, with our class adviser, Mr. Edwards. Being as active as any other junior class, we tools part in many other activities, such as chorus, Ir. Historians, Art Club, I-li-Y and Tri-Hi-Y, and the class play, HSaved by the Belief' instructed by Mrs. Gish. Then last but not least came the big climax of our short story. We were full Hedged seniors, 53 in force with Mrs. Smith as our class ad- viser. It was in this year of 5l,' our class chose officers: Pres., lack Traino, V. Pres., Jack Tothg See., Ioan flindermyer, and Treas., Charles Wolf. We had nine out for football, one for field hockey, four for baslcetball, eight for baseball, and five for tracla. VVe worlced hard on the yearbooli and the class play, HlWama's Baby Boy. directed by Mrs. Brown. There was to be no time for play, but being as we are, we found time for a hay ride and class room chatter. Putting aside all the worries of unfinished home worlf, the forgotten loclier liey, or a missing text boolt, we leave be- hind us twelve years of worlc, play, and memories to step into a different class room, the world, and start a new and more complex study.

Here are some of the students about whom 1 know. Keith McKay, Richard lX1yers and Walter Bishop are the proud inventors of the never-miss artillery gun. This gun is constructed so that it is mathematically impossible to miss anything within 500 miles and traveling less than 5000 miles an hour. They claim to have gotten their basic information from lNlr. Hartman in trigo- nometry class. Did you hear about ,lack Traino? He is the leading candidate for the Presidential nomina- tion in the coming election of 1972. Evidently serving as president of our class was good train- ing. Dolores Lafferty is working for a business firm owned by lack Toth, Charles Wolf, and Frank Stewart. There is an unconfirmed re- port that they hire only girl employees, but 1 don't know anything about that. Richard Mansfield is a mechanic for that famous hot-rod racing duo, Ronald Reed and Robert Rine. They havenlt lost a race in their last forty starts. Since Warren Snavely has taken over his father's meat business, it has rivaled Swiftls. The super salesman is Richard Johnson and the fore- man of the big plant is Duke Batula. Anthony Stoll and Howard Peig are oper- ating a very successful gymnasium in New York City. One of their best,customers is the winning lawyer in that recent missing persons' case, Lynn Weiser. Elwood Harrell is now coach of the Har- lem Clobetrotters, and hasn't lost a game in two years. Reid Lippert, after a successful career in the Marines, is now living on his pension and still searching for a perfect girl, although it is rumored he saw many of the female sex during his time in service. Lester Stephenson and Steve Custin are using their good looks in the movies while Char- lotte Bittinger and Albert Hollenbach are Stal'- ring in that new opera hit, Hlt Canlt Re Done . The script was written by Kenneth Koller. Those teaching at their old Alma Mater in- clude: Robert Lebo, physical education, Ruth Shaeffer, music instructor, and Samuel Klick, democracy teacher. Margaret Wilson, after getting preliminary training at the Polyclinie Hospital in Harris- burg, is now head nurse in the largest veterans' hospital in the country. 1 saw Rheba Potter the other day looking very trim in her WAVE uniform, and she told me she finally married the Marine whom she used to date. 1 received an invitation the other day to at- tend a party given at a well-known night club. The host is Carl Lynch. After inheriting a cou- ple million, he is now making a hobby of col- lecting expensive dogs and entertaining expen- sive women. Albert Roberts is now making a modest for- tune as a bricklayer. His wife, Louise Randolph, is the eminent dress designer. Well, l am afraid that's all l have time to write now, as 1 am late for my ditch-digging job. Sincerely yours, Donald Zook May 15, 1971 Dear Donald, The Navy has hit townl Betty Pagano, now Mrs. Alden Cundy, was here over the weekend while her husband was on leave. She has been traveling with Aggie while he is in service. Dorthy Levens and Jo Anne Zook, soon to be discharged from the Waves, were shopping around looking for the home of their future photography studio. They are having their shop purchased through the Harrisburg National Bank, where Esther Wilson, as secretary to Mil- ton Horner, the President, keeps things ticking like clockwork. Helen Frank is head bookkeeper at the bank. fContin'ued on Page 222 Whos Who Best All Around ,loan lli116l61'11'lj'C1'-ROl76?'t Leho-john Traino hlost Likely to Succeed Esther VVilson-Donald Zook lWost lntellectual Esther Ufilson-Donald Zook Best Personality joan Hinderntyer-Lester Stephenson lylost Popular ,Ioan Hinalernzyer-Bohert Leho lWost Dependable illargaret lflfilson-Donald Zook Best Athlete Fay Sheetz-Robert Leho Best Actor Emma Hoffman-Keith lllclfay Most Musical Emma Hoffman-john Traino Best Artist ,Hay Hildebrand-Keith McKay Best Dressed Dorthy Levens-Lester Stephenson Quietest Joyce VVolfe-Richard johnson Most Talkative Dorothy Kocher-Anthony Stoll Kindest janet Pagano-Billy Love Silliest joanne Zook-Dnshan Batula Dreamers Dorothy Koeher-jack Toth Romeo and Juliet Nlay l lilalehrand-Karl Baudenshy Class Clown Ennna Hofntan-Anthony Stoll Beau and Belle Betty Pagano-Bill Wolf Best Built Betty Pagano-Bohert Leho Tallest Richard lldyers-Lester Stephenson- Margaret Krovie Best Singer Shortest We HindeTm3'eT'BlU vvolf Ronald Wingert-May Hildebrand Best Dancers Youngest .Margaret Krovie-Stephen Gnstin Ruth Shgaffer-Donald Zook Best Looking Oldest john Hindernzyer-Lester Stephenson lzola Brown-Carl Lynch Class Prophecy fCOWfi711l9d from Page Zll l dropped into loan Hindermyer's house the other day for a cup of tea. Ioan now has two adorable children. She said that her husband had taken her to a night club owned by Emma Hoffman in celebration of their wedding anni- versary. Mildred Kramer is in charge of making all the girls beautiful, and Dorothy Kocher writes the scripts for all the programs. Emma's guest stars for the evening were Florine Smith, the Queen of Ice, and Fay Sheetz, all American-Women's basketball player. Anna Ernst sent me a postcard the other day from Washingtori, D. C., where she, Eva Bryant, lanet Pagano, Joyce Wolfe, and Miriam Turns are typing important documents for the govern- ment. lzola Brown now has her own disc jockey program over the radio, where she advertises her record mart on Fifth Avenue. The new gas station on the Hershey High- way is owned and operated by Ronald Wing- ert. Billy Love, his sidekick, is the head me- chanic. May Hildebrand, now Mr. Carl Bauden- skv, owns and operates her own art studio. Junior is raising a fuss, so I'll have to get back to my housework.
