New York PENN - BERNVILLE HIGH SCHOOLS -----BERNVILLE, PENNA.--------- oreu or, We present to you our 1957 PENNANT, in which we relate music to everyday high school life. Every age has had its beginning in music, its experimental period, its highest point in music, fol- lowed by new ideas that prepare the way for the next era. Our lives have followed this same patternâour beginning in the elementary grades, our experimentation during junior high, our highest point this year, and new spirit now radiating in the under- classes. Here are the final compositions indicating the preparation for the next period. The black of the cover represents the notes of our music; the gold, the golden quality of the musical tone. 2 Mr. Russell L. Berger Mr. Russell L. Bergerâmusic instructor, band director, builder of school spirit iu all phases of musicâdisplays his outstanding interest in his duty.

TO THE CLASS OF 1957: Your class symbolizes two fine altitudes which set a high standard of work and conduct. First, you have demonstrated that the senior class can work well within the framework of our student council organization by showing a willingness to accept the groupâs decisions after trying hard to persuade them to think as you do. This is one of the finest experiences in democracy. Secondly, you have shown that you realize the value of high academic standards which can be maintained only by uninterrupted classwork. because you have cooperated so well in working together after school and during many evenings to prepare for your class play, the Pennant, the Penn-Guin. and other class or group projects, âl'his, of course, means sometimes giving up other activities, hut it puts your high school in its proper perspective. Your high school work is the most impor- tant thing you have to do during your high school years. Man of you have demonstrated that you realize this. Congratulations on your 1957 Pennant! Having seen some features in advance, I know you will have an excellent book. I am sure that the message told by your theme will always be an inspiration to you. t MILS. ANNA KOIILHEPP Secretary Mrs. Anna Kohlhcpp. Mr. Rohrhachâs capable and dependable secretary, can al- ways be found busily working or seeking supplies for the students.

Reading German passages is facilitated by studying and knowing effec- tive vocabulary assignments. The students are pleased that they learn German so quickly. Audio-visual aids play an important role in the learning of all languages. While Larry Kline operates the tape recorder, Stewart Brodman speaks into the microphone. The use of the recorder creates confidence, proper speech habits, and clear thinking. This prac- tice will help them in conversation. oCatin 10 Conjugations, declensions, subjunctive mood, vocabulary, and translation are in- cluded in second-year Latin. Mrs. Lutz in- structs the class in their accurate Latin read- ing.

The students have found Miss Riegelâs class to he interesting, important, and challenging. 38 WatL 7 Fractions and their divisions, always con- fusing to beginning math students, are being explained by Edward Fisher. Mr. Kaiser has emphasized the value of blackboard work in math, and the students recognize the import- ance of learning mathematics by this tech- nique. Pauline Glosser and June Speicher are con- structing an altitude and median of two triangles while the other juniors work prob- lems at their desks. The students enjoy constructing the various geometric figures with two important tools: compasses and a protractor. In algebra exact measurements are most important. Shirley Schaeffer records the widths of the different objects measured by Barbara Ernst, Stewart Brodman. and Sally Care. Algebraic expressions and their prob- lems occupied much of these students time during the school year. Jrigonometr The operation of the slide-rule and its func- tions arc being discussed by Paul Martin, Forrest Lesher, and C. Frederick Wilhelm.

Chivies 9 âPropaganda Devices that Can Mislead You . . is one of the bulletin hoard posters in Mr. Brown's classroom. Freshmen study civic problems and discuss possible solutions; they also study about the Keystone State. Grace Degler uses this display to emphasize possible misleading devices in a democracy. As Joan Benze! points to the United States on the world globe, the other class members watch closely. Projects that include drawing maps and taking field trips enable the students to understand United States history more thoroughly. Mr. Brown has supervised their year's course of study. 43 sffgricu ft ure 9-10 âVegetable Gardeningâ is one unit of study covered by the freshmen and sophomores in agriculture.

Beginning commercial students learn the fundamentals of typing and realize the value in the secre- tarial field. As practice many juniors type re- ports for other subjects. Shorthand 12 Shorthandâessential for efficient secre- tariesâis emphasized by Mrs. Mooney. As Cleo Hoffman dictates. Mary Jane Mountz writes on the blackboard in shorthand. Other seniors demonstrate their skills on paper. Newly-purchased 45 rpm records are used for dictation purposes to test speed and accuracy. Q.RO.W To acquire an understanding of business, sophomores receive general business training. Kcbeeca Moore explains credits and drafts: the class has studied business terms and their application in commercial affairs. On the bulletin board the sophomores have shown the evolution of our exchange system. 3 'jrncj 12 Explaining proper spacing and margins. Mrs. Mooney supervises Brenda Brchm as she prepares to type an assignment.

Understanding the power tools and employing them in the work, these hoys make objects, such as bird shelters. Exact measure- ments are stressed by the instructor in all the assignments. wmmmm 7 Benches, shelves, clothes racksâeverything can be constructed because of the numerous tools and the shopâs equipment. A course in industrial arts never omits a study of acci- dent prevention: co-operation among students is important for completion of the assigned work; and accuracy is essential for a satis- factory project. d)n dudtria (-sdrts 8 Becoming familiar with each machine and its operation facilitates the completion of the eighth grade projects. With a suitable work- ing knowledge of carpentry, these boys can proceed to more dillicult assignments. As these hoys assemble, measure, and plan, they employ the industrial arts. 46 Jfeaftl 10 With Walt Kpler as patient, the tenth grade hoys practice tying bandages. Other first-aid techniques they have studied include giving artificial respiration, assisting a person in an accident, and aiding a person that has inter- nal poisoning. First-aid methods have become an essential part of the curricula. 11-12 The anatomy model, purchased by the Stu- dent Council, is most helpful in health classes. Showing the different parts of the body, Larry Luckenbill takes the model apart as Paul Yanosik and Jerald Hartman observe. This aids in learning the positions of the vital organs. JJeciltl 8 âSafety at Home is vividly explained and emphasized in the chart used by Dennis Adam. Learning safety practices is extended to in- clude safety in school situations and safety as pedestrians. Also, the students learn the parts of tIn human body and its proper care.
