EDWARD NEIEERT CHARLES CARTER, JAIVIES SCHAEFEER, JOHN SEMBACH, HERBERT COBLEY The personnel of the School Board changed during the past year because of the death of Mr. George Hess, who had been secretary. Mr. Her- bert Cobley, a capable and qualified man, was ap- pointed to take his place. These seven men, who meet regularly on the first Monday of every month, have the great re- sponsibility of administering a school system com- posed of seventy teachers, 1887 pupils, and eight school buildings. With the help of the superinten- dent of schools and the principals, they must main- tain the school plant and, what is more important, provide background for college and professional work, as well as sufficient training for those who want to earn a living as soon as they graduate. With the Hrst purpose in mind, the School Board, before the beginning of the last school term, had the Senior High School redecorated and im- proved. They also discussed additions to the build- ing. With the second purpose in mind, they added several members to the faculty of Senior High School, and made it possible by enlarging the typ- ing room for many of the academic students to add typing to their course of study. The problems of the School Board of 1951 are many, but the greatest is the problem of educat- ing this generation for life in a world ever grow- ing more complex. Administration and the Faculty To the information about the faculty members on the four following pages, there are many things to add in order to make the record complete. Wle want to remember the many faculty changes made this year, the substitutes we had, and some of the other activities in which the teachers engaged. In addition to their regular teaching duties, several faculty members taught in the adult edu- cation program sponsored by Pennsylvania State College. They were Miss Bahrt, who taught typ- ing: Miss Brewer, who taught public speaking, and Miss Fey, who taught shorthand. Mr. Stine was administrator of the night school. Mr. NVelker, who left us in February, went to Columbia University to study for his Masteras Degree in administration. This year we had several additions to the faculty. One new member was Mr. Duncavage, who re- placed Mr. Welker as assistant football coach, and teacher of physics. chemistry, and biology. There was also Mr. Fetterman, who taught physical edu- cation and biology and was elected Sophomore class advisor. It was largely through Mr. Fetter- man's efforts that the intramural basketball league came into being. Mr. Jones, who joined us when Mr. Welker left, was Sophomore history teacher. The substitute teachers were the Reverend XV. E. Myers, Mrs. Fetterman, and Mrs. Lutinan. These persons came to us on the shortest of notice and we greatly appreciate their efforts. Those employed by the School Board for the betterment of our health were Dr. Gordon Weaver, school doctor, Miss Pearl Steigerwalt, school nurse, Dr. N. Forrest, school dentist, and Miss Eva Scarloss, dental hygienist. Mrs. Sarah Nahf was truant officer. - Reading from left to right: Mr. Duncavage, Miss Brewer, Mr. Welsh. Miss Britton. Mr. Baer.

Later many of the stu- dents from the Hometown area transferred to the Mahanoy Township high school. On the hrst day of September, 1950, we had a class roll of 148.

We were also the first class to try to raise money in other years besides our Senior year. Money was accumulated in the treas- ury by having bake sales, selling pencils with the basketball schedule of the varsity team printed on them, ear muffs, red sweaters, and red and gray jackets. The sale of these items was not conhned to the high-school alone but they were offered to Junior High students and the general public. In our Junior year two important committees were formed under the supervision of Mr. Graham, the advisor of the class during our Sophomore and Junior years. One, the Ring Committee was made up of Laura Moser, Kathryn Weston, Bruce Phil- lips, the class president, Harold Moore and the vice-president, Robert Bannan. The other, the Finance Committee, which helped conduct the business of the class was com- posed of Lois Bitsko, WVilliam XN'eayer, Maureen Coleman, Arthur Reese, Diane Seip, Jeanette Dominic, and the chairman, Paul Sherry. During this year, also, we did ourselves proud on the foot- ball field with Harold Moore and Bruce Phillips starring in the varsity backfield and Paul Sherry, Bob Harris and Bruce Burrell doing the honors on the basketball court.

The Senior French Club, Les Chanteurs de Francais, held their regular meetings on the last Wednesday of every month. The several class proj- ects enjoyed by the members included record ses- sions at which the class listened to well-known uBelle Nuit, and UL' Habeneran from 'LCarmen , an amateur program during which. the various members of the club presented vocal solos of mod- ern and classical songs in French, group singing of songs from France, learned by the class through- out the year, reports on French composers and au- thors of short stories, poetry, and novels, and also a short play entitled L'Vive la Musique, the story of two boys who had a piano moved into their room in a boarding house by mistake. The boys liked the piano and had a grand time playing it until the two men who had brought it came back to retrieve it and deliver it to the rightful owner. The other tenants, however, enjoyed the music so well that they bought the piano for the boys. Other activities were: a roller skating party to which the Junior French Clubs were invited, a doggie roast, and the annual farewell banquet at the McKeansburg Grange, which completed their very successful two years.

Juniors Spent NA i ht In Paris The Junior French Club, under the direction of the above ofiicers and their advisor, had a va- riety of interesting programs and experiences. They learned about many well-known French authors and composers through the media of re- ports and records. During the club periods, held the third week of every month, the members en- joyed such activities as playing Bingo, Buzz, and many other entertaining games in French. The pro- grams were participated in by individual members while the club, as a whole, became familiar with many songs that come directly from France. Some of these were: HToreador, La Marscillaisef' Belle Nuit, and nLe Cou-Cou. On December Hrst the boys and girls were in- vited by the Senior French Club to participate in a roller skating party at Lakewood. A large num- ber attended and everyone, despite thrills and spills, had a grand time and returned home proud to belong to an organization like the Tamaqua High School Junior French Club.

At the first meeting of the year Miss Brewer was ap- pointed the first advisor of the club. Another ad- vantageous change made was the holding of the meetings in Room X instead of in the small class rooms. The club met the second Thursday of every month, the fourth period in the morning. The speakers were professional and business men who Souvenirs collected during the clubls paper drive. described their careers and the qualihcations and education necessary to enter that particular held of work. Some of the speakers and the topics they spoke on were F. Challenger on engineering, Wellace Eberts on salesmanship, A. W. McMichael on law, F. W. Myers on mining, and Morton Weldy on world affairs. Mr. Weldy had been enjoyed so much by everyone the first time he was here, that once again he spoke to the whole student body instead of just to the club. At each meeting two boys were elected to act as student Rotarians. The two boys selected had the privilege of attending the Rotary meetings during that month. On February 22, lVashington's birthday, the boys conducted a paper drive in Tamaqua. The proceeds made on the drive went toward buying vocational guidance material for the high school. Mr. R. IV. Oberholtzer, chairman of the Youth Committee of the Rotary, was the Rotarian sponsor. O F F I C E R S Preiident . . . ......,........ DANIEL PINKEY Secrrffary , . . . ROBERT HARRIS Advisor .. ..

Bugle Corps Won First Prize in Hazleton The Girls' Bugle Corps took part in a busy and successful year participating in a mummers' pa- rade, an exhibition, and many other parades. In the Hazleton Miimmers' Parade the girls re- ceived Hrst prize. On July Fourth, they put on an exhibition for the Saint Clair Centennial Celebra- tion and took part in the parade later in the eve- ning. The Corps received a special prize in the Armistice Day Parade in Lansford. Other parades in which they participated were in Pottsville and in Orwigsburg. The majorettes for the 1952-53 season were chosen in November: they were Virginia Main and Doris Kerr. , x l'f U ?. The Bugle Corps at the Lansford Parade. During the winter the Bugle Corps drums were sent away to be reinished. From the end of No- vember until January, the drum, flag, and bell lyre sections discontinued practice. The second annual Bugle Corps dance was held in November and was a huge success. The Corps also sold Christmas cards and every-day cards. A new custom for the Bugle Corps was begun this year, the Senior girls who had been in the Corps for three years were awarded silver keys. The three girls to receive them were: Joan Am- brose, Maureen Coleman, and Lois Bitsko. The four equipment boys, to whom many thanks and much credit must go, were Fred West, Harold Rupert, Donald Krause, and Bill Wleaver. gg...- 7 BUGLE CORPSfI irst row, reading from left to right: M.

Cheerleaders Received New Jackets Wie present our cheerleaders, the hard-working and enthusiastic girls who cheered our football and basketball teams on to many victories. In September try-outs were held to select new cheerleaders from the Sophomore class. Carolyn Krell and Ruth Matthews had the honor of being chosen. The other cheerleaders were: Seniors, Doris WValters, captain, Cynthia Rupert, and Anna Belle Herb, Juniors, Florence Boyer, Jean Lord, Kay Reichneder, and Nancy Folk. These nine girls planned and conducted pep meetings throughout the football season. The meetings usually consisted of cheering, singing, and Binga-lacka-Ching-a-lacka'' at the Alumni Game. a few words from one of the coaches. An added attraction this year were the speeches made by the football players. Although there were very few pep meetings dur- ing basketball season, the cheerleaders still kept up their good work at the games. Instead of the blouses they had always worn, the girls received new blue and white jackets to match their skirts. Several new cheers were added to their already large list, and they worked out new motions to replace some of the older ones. The girls were repaid for their splendid work with invitations to the football and basketball banquets.

It is unusual for a school to get a complete new coaching staff. It is even more unusual that the results are favorable. Coach Hartwig and his assis- tants, Mr. Duncavage and Mr. Fetterman, have turned in an admirable record in spite of the ad- justments they had to make. Perhaps some of their success is due to Coach Hartwig's experience as line coach under former Coach Graham, but this can- not be the whole reason.

The team's enviable record of tories shows that Coach Purnell's considerable ent has more or less been buried for the past years. Nicholas Young, the J.V.

All things considered, our coaching staff turned in an excellent athletic record for year. 65 vic- tal- few has the has this Autumn and THE COACHING STAFF Head Coach .... R. A. H.'XRTXN'IG JR.

The line played an exceptionally good game on both the offense and defense to lead the Raiders on. On a clear Saturday night Blythe invaded the walls of the Tamaqua Stadium only to go down to defeat at the hands of a spirited Raider team. One of the most spectacular touchdowns of the season was witnessed in this game. Two ends, Joe Boyle and Don Kimmel, combined when Kimmel blocked an attempted pass by the opposing teams, and Boyle gathered it in and carried it 59 yards to pay dirt. Boyle had scored a previous touchdown and Knepper and Kunkle made one each to run up the impressive score of 27-0. Tamaqua played host to a strong Coaldale eleven for their fourth straight home game and played to a 13-13 dead- lock. In the second quar- ter Tamaqua scored 7 of its 13 points on a buck by fullback Hal Moore and the extra point booted by Burrell. By the halftime the Raiders had another 6 points on Allisonls bril- liant running. But Coal- dale was not done as they came back to score one in the third quarter and another on a desperation pass in the remaining two minutes. For their first away game T. H. traveled to Mahanoy City from where they brought home a 13-0 victory for their third win in Hve games. Bruce Phillips was re- sponsible for both touchdowns as our big tackles, lYalter Nlazur and .Iohn Uzick, both helped open large holes for the backs to go through. Home once again, Coach Hartwig's machine played host to Nesquehoning only to end up on the short end of a 26-19 score. Tainaqua scored their three touchdowns in the first half and led 19-6 at half-time. Then an inspired Nesquehoning team took the Held for the second time and scored 20 points to send Tainaqua to defeat. Most of the night was spent in hard scrimmage and a printing duel between Jack Campbell and Teddy Drigan. For their seventh game the Raiders invaded Lansford only to fall defeated before an underesti- mated Panther team by the score of 14-13. Lans- ford scored first in the contest but they led only until Bruce Phillips scored and Burrell kicked the extra point. Phillips scored again, but another score and point netted the Panthers the win. 'lim Sloboda did a very good job at substituting for the injured joe Boyle. This time T. H. traveled to Shenandoah and brought home with them a 20-6 victory. Here once again the exceptional game played by the line was the deciding factor, especially that of guards Bob Burcin and Bob Bannan. Touchdowns FOOTBALL TACKLINGfRer1ding from left to right: Ifzick.

They had the lead all the way but were kept on their toes and played very good ball. Wlillis Reeser, outstanding for- ward, and Paul Sherry, Senior captain, scored 14 and 12 points respectively. For the second clash the Tams travelled to Ma- hanoy Township where they met their Hrst taste of defeat by the score of 50-32. John Martin, stel- lar center, was high with 12 points. On the road once again, the Raiders traveled this time to Mt. Carmel Township and brought home a 51-48 victory. John Martin with 8 goals and 5 fouls hit for 21 points, followed by our fight- ing guard, Roy Krell, with 18 points. Meeting Mahanoy Township for the second clash in their exhibition games the Raiders handed them a 50-41 defeat to even the series with them. The team as a team played heads up ball and gave the fans a very thrilling time. John lNIartin was high with 15. Allison was runner up in the scor- ing department with 12 markers. Traveling to Vest Hazleton to finish the series there, the charges of Coach Purnell brought home with them a 49-39 victory. Tamaqua had the lead all the way through and Coach Purnell used al- most all his reserves in this game. Martin was hot with 20 markers for the night. The Alumni led by last year's star center, 'fCup- py Baer, defeated the Raiders by 43-39. Baer took first honors with 18 points and Roy Krell of the varsity took second with 10. The varsity just couldn't get started as the grads took an 18-3 start before they knew what happened. Everyone played a good game, but the grads were just too much. For their first Black Diamond clash, the Tams traveled to Nesquehoning where they defeated the home team at the foul line. Accuracy at the foul line accounted mainly for the victory. Star forward, Jack Burcin, was high with 11 points, followed by Martin, Krell, and Sherry all with 10. For their second league game the Raiders drop- ped a close decision to the Coaldale Tigers on their own floor. Martin scored 21 points for a losing cause as Tamaqua ended up on the short end of a 54-49 score. Foul shots proved fatal in the next game as Summit Hill came to town and handed the fight- ing Tams a close defeat by a score of 43-42. Krell, who played a good game on both offense and de- fense, came in second with 12 points, one point behind center Martin, who had 13. On the road once again, the Tams traveled to Lansford only to taste defeat. The fast Panthers broke and passed the Tams to a 61-39 defeat. Y'Villis Reeser was high in the losing cause by scor- ing 11 points. Then Mahanoy City invaded and found a very hard game as they defeated the Tams 68-56. There were thrills and chills up to the last gun but Coach Goepfertls charges were too much as they proved the better team that night. For their last clash of the first half of league playing, Tamaqua invaded Blythe only to go down to defeat as Rompola scored 14 points for the home team and Roy Krell carrie through with 10 for Tamaqua. A jump in the Alumni Game. Their first battle of the second half proved suc- cessful as the Hghting Tams came through to give Nesquehoning their second defeat of the year by Tamaqua. Paced by Martin and Krell, 15 and 17 points respectively, the Raiders proved better than the Nesquers as they defeated them 58-49. The Raiders defeated Coaldale on their own floor by 54-47 for their second win in a row. Bruce Burrell, now playing for the injured Reeser, con- trolled both boards as he got rebounds and came in second in the scoring department with 12 mark- ers. Martin led with 15. On the road once more, the machine of coach Purnell extended their streak to three as center Martin had a good night and paced the locals with 24 points to a 52-39 victory.

Traveling to Mahanoy City, the Raiders got their first taste of defeat in the second half of the league as they were defeated, 67-43. Mahanoy City took the lead in the starting minutes and maintained it all the way through the game. Smigo was high for the home team with 26, while Martin hit for 20 for the Tams. Playing their last game of the season, the Tams put on a brilliant display of basketball as they defeated the Blythe team by a close 47-45 edge. Martin, who played a good game all the way, dumped the winning basket in the Hnal 45 sec- onds and was high with 24 points. Krell and Bur- cin took second and third honors with 12 and 11 points. This ended the season with 10 wins and 8 losses for a .556 average. Burcin, Berry Matalav Adams Ditzler Feathers R. age J. V. LETTERS union Kunkel Sojihomores Kaufman Price Stickler, Mgr.

Important Events At a January class meeting the Seniors listened to several songs presented by the class song com- mittee. From these they selected Maureen Coleman's composition written to the tune of i'l'll See You Againu. Matirtien is shown here at a lriendls piano playing the class song which will be sung at our graduation. On lVashington,s Birthday the Junior Service Club held a paper drive. This drive was planned and directed by club president, Dan- iel Pinkey. Seven tons of paper and cardboard were collected. It is the wish of the Junior Service Club to use the proceeds of this drive toward a project that will benefit the high school. CLASS PLAY CAST IN GYM7Rer11ling from left in right, seated: P.

It might well have been called HThe Female Dan Cupidn for it involved the Goddess of Love, Miss Venus, who used her magic powers to unscramble and reunite six people who were having difficulty in finding their right mates. Along with the thirty- three voices which made up the chorus, the spec- tators also witnessed several clever dances featur- ing ballet, tap, and comedy. Directed by .... ............... M rs.

Tamaqua's 1951 Track Team is shown below at an indoor practice early in the spring. Coach Hartwig is preparing them for another season, which we hope will be as successful as last year. The 1950 team started off strong on April 19 by defeating Summit Hill on its own home ground 55M-392. Comisac took first place in the 100, 220, and 440. Hazleton Visited the Raiders on April 28, and Tamaqua, taking first place in every event except the discus, outclassed them 54-31. A return meet at Hazleton was cancelled because of rain. In an invitation meet held at Coal- dale, Tamaqua placed fifth being topped by lVil- liamsport, Pottsville, Mt. Carmel, and Palmerton. W'etterau's first place pole vault and COI11lS3C7S third place in the 440 put the Raiders on top of the valley teams. A Mt. Carmel meet resulted in Tamaqua fourth with points from third place honors by Gasper's 440, Uzick's discus, and Bern- hardt's javelin. 1Yilliamsport won this meet. At Pottsville, Gasper, Uzick, and Bernhardt again combined with second place honors to give Ta- maqua fourteen points to close the season. Reading from left to right, first row: S. Dampman, C.

Nlem,ries of Tamaqua Highf, was written this year by Nlaureen Cole- man. The song is written to the tune of l'll See You Again. This year the song was selected from a group of several submitted to the Glass Song Committee. The committee, composed of Arthur Reese. l.il- lian Gravell, Diane Seip. Doris lYalters. joe Hoyle. Dan Pinkey, and ,lack Campbell, selected three songs which seemed to have the most merit. These songs were then played and sung by the committee in front of a class meeting and then the class was supplied with copies and sang the songs again. Finally a vote was taken and after a short and breathless wait it was announced that lvlaureen Coleman's Memlries of Tamaqua High was vic- torious. The meeting ended by singing. for the first official time, our class song. At commencement, the Seniors sang their song with tears and they remembered all their days in Tamaqua High.

They have done many interesti-ng things during the past year. Their an- nual banquet was held in October in Zion's Fel- lowship Hall. A successful Christmas Dance, held on December 28, completed their 1950 season. On April 12, 1951, the production of january Thaw , was presented in the Majestic Theatre by members of the Association. One of the highlights of their activities is the party given at the end of the year for the Seniors. For the Class of 1950, the theme was Ship Ahoyl' and all went sailing on an imaginary ship for the night. The Alumni Formal. held at Lakewood near the end of june. is one more thing that this active association does for its members in addition to its regular monthly business and social meetings.
