It symbolized opposition to parliamentary and royal tyranny, or, in short, symbolized freedom. This same tree has remained a symbol of freedom throughout the twentieth century. As the country obtained freedom and branched along new and treacherous pathways, so did the yearbook staff, Such a revision of the general plan of a yearbook was never under' taken by previous staffs. Undoubtedly, the year- book is better, although the path to completion and satisfaction was frustrating and tiresome. Sometimes the course of life through high school is frustrating and tiresome, too. But self accom' plishment and satisfaction becomes a just reward. in Q THE 1976 NESSMUK Volume 47 Wellsboro Area Senior High School Wellsboro, Pennsylvania Clifford L. Ruland, Principal , g ? M Y .

High school prepares us for life in general, but we will always be moving on towards something more perfect. This is the time that a person has the freedom to pursue it to the fullest. lf we try anything is pos- sible and we can see the beauty of life begin. Obviously, the future will be totally our desires showing the characteristic leadership and socialability of our youth, in our time. life - 11 12 - student life THE BEST COMPETITORS WERE TI-IE BEST iii ses a X KS- O if ie? . .

Jeanne Cressman and Cathi McDaniels stood behind glaring lights of the National Honor Society booth hours and never sold one of David Crist 's cookies. V 2 KX S All student life - 15 Hustle, bustle, and all the excitement of a holiday filled the halls during the week of Homecoming. For the seniors, this week and weekend had a special meaning. Home- coming '75 marked the last time the seniors would have to worry about finishing floats, having a date for the big dance, or choosing the queen. But for the underclassmen it meant that soon their last year would be here upon them and they would have to assume more responsibilities. Many hours of hard work and planning go into making an occasion such as Homecoming successful. The official opening of the weekend came as the band played On Green Hornets and the fans cheered on the football team at Friday's pep rally. The carnival helped to welcome Homecoming '75 as smashes of the sledge hammer on the junk car meant that someone was testing his strength. The aroma of hot pretzels, doughnuts, and cider filled the crisp Autumn air. After the excitement of the carnival died down the crowd prog- ressed to the baseball field where the cheer- leaders and football players chanted enthu- siastically. The bon fire burned with antici- pation of the next dayls events. The queens in all their glory were escorted through the parade by the band and the clubs and class floats. Threats of rain and hail were evident and hampered the game's prosperity. The queen, Marianne Buker, was crowned despite the stormy weather. Someone once said It doesn't matter if you win or lose, but rather how you play the game. So it was with the Hornets Homecoming game 1975. The re- sults of the game did not seem to dampen the spirits because as the band struck its first chord, everyone rushed into the cafeteria to enjoy the first dance of the year. Foreign Student Club celebrated the Far East with their float in the Homecoming parade.

In- stead of reading Borough of Wellsboro the signs will read City of Wellsboro. Progress became noticeable as citizens witnessed the opening of a new plaza in October 1975. The plaza was the first discount shopping center in the community. These modern stores remain outside of town, but in town the county office building has been torn down and a new one stands in its place. In the late spring of 1973, the old county office building was condemned by the De- partment of Labor Industries. The major rea- son for the decision was the Children's Ser- vices Department had no outside entrance from the upstairs. This created a hazard. The building had reparations several times before and could not be fixed again. Since the brick was in bad condition and the cost of renova- tion was extremely high, a new building was agreed upon. On May 20, 1974, bids opened and on November 20, 1974, L. Robert Kimble and Associatesfrom Evansburg, PA., received a contract. The estimated cost totaled 351,100,000 and the completion date was set for February 15, 1976. The new building consists of cement block outside and stone facing inside. The builders expect the brick colors to match the adjoining edifice after three years of deterioration. The new build- ing has room for everything from Probation to Voter Registration. Rooms and offices in the basement will be rented. The District Justice pays S300 a month for rent and there are expectations for a lot of income from payments. All the money goes toward the cost of the new building. w 12 1 1 Q Wellsboro'si 'K first newspha- Q per was e x Tioga Pioneer, 1' y which went in- i Q to publication Q 'n 1825.

Since the water rose so high at the electrical transforming plant in Niles Valley, many area residents were without electricity. Autumn proved unpredictable this year. Temperature variedg early in the day it was cold enough for wool sweaters and in the afternoon sleeveless shirts were the best choice. Frustrated school students pondered over their choice of clothing in the morning. The warm weather surprised everyone. Wellsboro experienced not one Indian sum- mer day but sixg this made an unusual record for the community. Then immediately the sunshine turned to rain as September brought an unexpected occurrence with rain falling relentlessly. There was a question echoing through the minds of Wellsboro residents, Will this end up like the flood of 1972? The people of Wellsboro looked upon the school officials to make a decision concerning the security of the students in the area. It seemed inevita- ble that the voice of the radio announcer would greet each early morning listener to those famous and longed words, The Wellsboro Area Schools will be closed to- day. The closing was not on the account of snow causing treacherous driving, but rain causing impassable roadways. All students were left to devise other means of entertain- ment rather than cold weather recreation. It could have been a cool refreshing dip in the nearby street or mass production of mud pies. The flood of 1975 stirred memories of 1972 and hopefully will not happen again. The Wellsboro Schools want to use their snow days for snow. not rain.

It proved to be effective in arousing interest of taxpayers, and provided an opportunity to communicate with offi- cials and specialists in many areas of govern- ment. Local industries and businesses spon- sored Harrisburg Hotlinen as a public ser- vice. In October 1975 t'Harrisburg Hotline became Hotline, under the sponsorship of Active Citizens Today. KACTJ Active Citizens Today is an organization operating primarily within the borders of Tioga County. Personal responsibility for our basic freedoms is an important issue today because of the government controlling more and more. We need a greater voice in our government, and ACT works to impress this upon the people of the community who want to be involved. ACT has the goals re- sembling the national organization called AREA fAssociation for Rational Environ- mental Alternativesj. The Purposes of this organization are to alert the public to gov- ernmental legislation concerning environ- mental matters and rural developement. ACT became interested in the sewage problem of the community, Two years ago the Department of Environmental Resources QDERJ mandated that Wellsboro would have to go to tertiary treatment. The sewage would be 957: puremmore pure than drink- ing water. In March, a proposal was sub- mitted to the Environmental Protection Agency QEPAJ to get 7576 funding. Funding was badly needed as the cost would be ap- proximately four and a half million dollars to change the plant. The EPA has not ap- proved the funds yet. The townspeople and municipal authorities recognize the need for improvements and have submitted alterna- tive plans costing thousands of dollars. Re- search is presently going on about how to stop tertiary treatment and public meetings are continuing. Interested students listened to the radio program and talked with their parents who participated actively in these community af- fairs. Action was taken depending on the type of problem. Listening to the radio helped in classes such as Economics, Govern- ment, and Conservation when the topics dis- cussed were community problems. Maybe Act has not solved all problems, but the important thing is it has made adults and students aware. l K if? 44444 tiff Wellsboro's only tornado lifted the top off the Carson block and dropped it in the middle of Main St. in front of the Arcadia The- atre in 1926. student life - 21 wfgwwm Labs such as these are used m testing the pur1ty of the water from a sewage treatment center Phil Young, a pleased when reduction in Sewage Plant.

Times change and hope about some- thing for nothing is quickly becoming a dream of the past. Food prices are up, clothing prices are up, and gasoline is really expensive. Surprisingly, some people never give up hope. These money cautious shoppers persist in searching endlessly for bargains. Free road maps and free calendars are obtainable at gas stations and stores. Companies promote their products by sending samples in the mail. Miniature tubes of toothpaste and shampoo delight housewives, and with the purchase of one pair of pantyhose another pair is free . People have adapted to higher prices and more pressure, even though a few years ago they were faced with the problem of Kentucky credit cards. These contraptions consisted of a gas container and a piece of rubber hose. En- raged drivers frightened card-using young- sters by threatening to wrap the hoses around their necks. Now society is taking a more realis- tic and calm approach toward the problem of inflation through legislation. Although pressure increases and gas is not getting any cheaper, optimistic people refuse to believe there will come a day when one cannot get something for nothing. A l Q KZ i'iri'k'k'k'k'kii'ki'i'i-F44 i'i'ki'k'k'k'li'iit'k-V-444 In 1889, the two courses that were o f f e r e d in Wellsboro were general and col- lege-preparatory. Costs were as fol- lows: tuition per term: academic- SB6, Grammar- S5, intermedi- ate-S4, pri- mary-S3. There were three terms of three months each. Students could enter any term. Boarding was available at good families with moderate I rates. To encourage people to buy their prod- uct, many companies consider it good advertising to send free samples in the mail. Lost and found items were announced over the radio free of charge by disc-jockey Jim West. , The day of the free ride any- time is virtually ended. As crime increased and trust dropped to new lows, even Dan Perry's schoolmates wouldn't offer him a lift, Finally, after half an hour and the aid of the camera crew, Walter Wilcox ground his 250 Cummings Diesel Sunoco truck to a halt. In her spare time, Joan Button clipped her nails with the free nail clippers that she had received the previous day. . George Greeley found that free road maps could show him the right direction to take on his many excursions. student life - 23 24 - student life The Letterman's Club hosted a Harlem Diplomats vs. Wellsboro Faculty basketball game to raise money to pay for last year's jackets from Garrisons. The VICA Club sold a variety of items to raise money to go into competition. Mr. Stahler smiled gleefully as Ann Poling and Brion Johnson cut him in on a share of the profits from the Creative Writers Club candle sale project to raise money for a banquet. The girls' basketball team tried to beat inflation with a penny guess and bake sale. The football team purchased a new popcorn machine to raise money. student life - 25 NEY - THE LACK OF IT One can do nothing today without money. New York City discovered how use- ful money was when they discovered that they were close to bankruptcy. Some said default is the only way outg others said New York should pay its debts. Although Presi- dent Ford opposed helping the city, the Fed- eral Government saved New York with a compromise plan. But students have to save themselves. This year everyone pays their own debts, although some owe more than others. The Lettermenls Club owes Garrison's Men's Store two-hundred dollars from last year's jackets. The Lettermen have been sell- ing food at bakesales downtown and at school. The Band, who had to raise 15,000 dollars, has also been bombarding consumers downtown and at school. They diligently sold calendars, sponges, and trees. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, the Band had a Tag Day . Members stood in front of stores ask- ing for donationsg they raised one-thousand dollars in two days. This year the National Honor Society got into money-raising. Last summer at the Laurel Festival honor stu- dents sold soft drinks around town. At the beginning of school they put on a candy bar drive, selling over four-hundred fifty dollars worth of chocolate. With this money they are supporting an orphan over seas, helping the poor at Christmas, and planning a trip in the spring. So it seems that all clubs are either selling, working, or campaigning for the one thing that can keep them from de- fault-money. f3biw 1 In August, 1889, the I : New York City debt to- I 4 talled 395,000,000 1 26 - student life Curious customers from around Tioga County converged upon East Avenue this October to witness the grand opening of the new A8tP and Ames stores. Construction began a year before, but unexpected soil conditions created delays and put off the expected opening for Christmas shopping the previous year. One of the largest shopping complexes in the area, investors were anticipating a build- up in population between Mansfield and Wellsboro and a trend toward a more urban setting for the county. Shoppers who are concerned with comparison buying and a wide variety of selection are pleased to see such a wide selection of items, ranging from groceries to auto parts.

The majority of our staff was inexperienced-unlike those in the past. It had to begin somewhere. In Septem- ber 1975, we decided it was our time to grow. Many problems arose but were over- looked. Debbie and Connie were too socially oriented to give up football games, plays, and imperative basketball action. Friends played a big part and success was coming hard. This seemed so true when the question arose: stay here and work, or go out and have a good time? Jody, our best writer, tried so very hard to overcome the obstacles in her path. First, she had no time for us, then there was ad- vanced composition, on top of that, she got sick. Somehow, thank God, she always pulled through giving us a little extra each time. We never would have made it without her. After many trying and heated arguments, we finally convinced the juniors that they had to learn. In order for them to learn, they had to work if they wanted a yearbook to call their own. They had to have a back- ground to base their ideas on. Hopefully we've taught them how to put it together and how to deal with the pressures along the way. There was one person who, contrary to popular belief, enjoyed every minute of splitting headaches, upset stomachs, and the icy temperatures in the dead of Winter. This of course, was Ms. Owlett. Without her these pictures wouldn't have captions, lay-outs, wouldn't have clothes lines, and our staff wouldn't have sanity. She held us together when we fought, yelled at us when we laughed, and laughed at us when we cried, She was a typical Mom,'. Next door in B-37 lives a man who pre- fers Cyrano de Bergerac to Romeo and Juliet. fOnly because the balcony scene is better.j Mr. Stahler has had his red pen on everything written for us since long past the time we can remember, He hasn't been here forever, but he'll be with us forever. Mr. Stahler was a fortunate man, he got a fantas- tic student teacher who knew how to do everything. Miss Gerhret had a big shoulder which everyone cried on at one time or another. She could write, draw, and tell us secrets of the Owlett household. Week nights were spent after school hours, deadlines weren't met, and life in general was a mess. We did cheers in the halls, watched practices in the gymnasium, and got just plain weird when the tensions got too heavy. Even so, nothing was wasted-we always got something accom- plished. This book may be stashed away in a closet for a few years, but keep it as a treasure, a memory of the best years of your life. We just want you to know that we gave it all we had.

It was the Old Quaker Meet- ing House in back of the pres- ent Western Auto. Later came an Academy at the site of the old Catholic Church. Then, in accordance with the Act of April 1, 1834, a common school system was created in Pennsylvania. School was held in rooms furnished by teachers. Eventually because more and more children de- sired an education, people built schools. Construction of the first public school started in 1835 and was completed in 1836. The building consisted of logs and stood at the in- tersection of Meade and Wal- nut Streets. How big it was is still unknown. There was need for another school in a double house on Pearl Street because of congestion. Soon the number of students was so great that the School Board bought a lot on Grant Street for S2,150. This was for a high school and for the more advanced grades. The fi 27 'Eb David Tubbs Jay Tussey Christine Vandergrift Jerry VanNess Terry VanNess Mary Anne VanOrder Cassy Walrath Chris Walsh Sandra Weber Ben Weeks 'Il N45 1 edifice consisted of three stories. A chapel or assembly room was on the third floor. The cost totaled S33,500. Older people knew this build- ing as the old High School. The first class to graduate was in 1876, a class of six mem- bers. The school on Pearl Street was a grade school. In the 1880's and early 1890's school attendance in- creased once again. The de- cision to build a new school house was finalized June, 1894. This building at the in- tersection of Bacon and Wal- nut cost 812,000 when com- pleted in January, 1895. In August, 1896 the building caught fire and was entirely demolished. The only parts saved were the foundation and the furnaces, insurance benefits totaled only S8,000. Once again, the construction of a new school house was in order. After this grade school became useful again, the Pearl Street grade school was dis- continued. Then there were no changes in the planning of Wellsboro schools for the next thirty-five years. Wreck- ing crews tore down the re- built Grant Street Grade School that was familiar to high school students today in 1969. The Park Hill Manor for elderly people now occu- pies the site of our old play- ground, of our old swings and teeter-totters, and places where we cut our knees. ZIV my-Q g .

But there are nine dedi- cated citizens who willingly devote several hours a month to these tasks. They are paid nothingg they sometimes receive more criti- cism than praise, yet many of them run for office term after term. Theirs is a pursuit of quality in education for the young people who will become the businessmen, the doc- tors and lawyers, the clergymen, the teach- ers, the mechanics, the farmers and the pa- rents of the community. This quest deter- mines the type of men who are chosen as administrators to carry out the policies which they have enacted. Vern L. McKissick is known to faculty and upper classmen as a man who is willing to listen to ideas open mindedly and offer advice when asked. He is devoted to giving students as much responsi- bility as they can handle and teachers the freedom to creatively carry out their respon- sibilities. His capabilities are gratefully ac- knowledged by the community as well as the people who work closely with him. One of his closest associates is Clifford Ruland now in his second year as principal. 'A former assistant principal at Red Lion, Mr. Ruland has the responsibility of fitting hun- dreds of courses into a complex schedule in addition to seeing that the school plant func- tions properly. Supervision of faculty and students, consultations, answering a myriad of questions daily -keep him busy long after others have gone home. Working less conspicuously to carry out the duties of advising students and assisting faculty are Mr. Albee and Mrs. Kantz. In addition to helping with course selection and schedule changes, they play an important part in locating information, and completing the necessary forms for admission to college. Collectively, these people working togeth- er have helped to create a school system which places the student and his needs first.

But a quick smile or a willing dust cloth, scrub brush or mop greet those who come in contact with Mrs. Bowen, Mrs. Abplanalp, Mr. Day, and Mr. Divido each day. Whenever there is a real catastrophe, however, all hands head for the little grey building behind the school where Mr. Borden and Mr. Sherman make the maintenance headquarters for the district. Armed with special thermometers, screw drivers, putty knives, and hammers, they invade every room to be sure temperatures con- form to standards and all equipment is in working condition. Long before these people arrive on the scene, cafeteria workers have put in their appearance for the day ready to slice and dice, cream and sift, bake and boil whatever the district-wide menu lists for the day. Extra special dinners are prepared for holidays including not only succulent turkey but freshly baked pies. During these early morning hours the aroma of freshly brewed coffee drifts out to greet teachers and students who must stop by the office for mail or an excuse from the secretarial staff before classes begin. Compiling attendance data, filling requisitions, typing letters and forms, locating lost items and students for parents or other teachers keeps these people more than busy. Patient and forgiving no matter how many times a question is asked or how demanding everyone becomes, their efforts make everyone else's job more pleasurable. Though enough thank yous are seldom said and everyone seems to take these people for gran- ted, it's impossible to imagine how the school could function without them. -xx? Q.. 1- ll' as 5' Q x .

When a new showcase was added to the wall out- side the library, desperately needed space was available for Wel1sboro's rapidly growing collec- tion. After Mr. Vogel left, responsibility for preparing at least forty-eight thousand meals rested with Mrs, Warriner, Mrs. Williammee, Mrs. Swisloski, and Mrs. Gee. It would be difficult to imagine what Mr. Sherman or Mr. Borden would be found carrying through the halls next, or where they might appear unexpectedly. umm' ae-'5 96 - in memoriam Mr. Jerry Webster was an agriculture teacher and Young Farmer instructor at Wellsboro for nine years after teaching at Northern Potter for twelve years. He owned and developed Hillstone Farms just outside Wellsboro, having attended Pennsylvania State University as an Agriculture Education ma- jor, not planning to become a teacher but to learn more about scientific farming. A hard worker, he soon realized that he could help the youth in the area by teaching agriculture in high school. He was advisor of the Future Farmers of America and an Honorary Keystone Farmer. Winning the Parlia- mentary Procedure Contest held annually was a highlight of his duties. Through hard work and practice he helped Wellsboro win the county con- test many times. Each year he donated apples so that the FFA could realize a tidy profit from their cider sale. Horses were a natural part of Jerry Webster's life beginning with his childhood ponies to the horse which outlived him. He loved to ride through the countryside, sometimes by himself, or with friends and family. In 1967 when the opera- tion of the Whitneyville Fair Grounds was in the embryo stage, Mr. Webster realized that a fair could not be held without a horse show. Being a fair director and a member of the Wellsboro Riding Club, he was put in charge of organizing a show for the fair. Ground was leveled and a tem- porary horse show ring was set up. After a few years enough money was raised, and with the help of his FFA boys and 4-H members, a permanent ring was carved out of limestone. A large show in October, 1974 helped to raise money .for the Jerry Webster Building which was dedicated in August, 1975. After major surgery in 1970, Mr. Webster be- came the area Young Farmer instructor. This job consisted of meeting with the adult farmers of the area monthly. He engaged guest speakers to give their expert advice to aid young men who were working with the land he enjoyed so much. Visits were made to their farms to help them in any manner he could. District Young Farmer meetings were held two or three times a year as well as family picnics and gatherings. All of this took time, and it was not what one might call easy work. Many teachers remember how Mr. Webster would help them with seemingly insurmountable tasks such as stage props, prom stairs and settings, and Christmas trees and decorations. The beautiful Outdoor Study Area is a living memorial to Mr. Webster and his agriculture students who valued keeping the area as natural as God intended it should be. Mr. Webster loved life on a farm and the beauty of the land on which he worked. It was God's country and it was respected by him as such. While he was busy helping others, his life was taken away early. Doctors told him that he had two months to live, but for five years he refused to become de- pressed or give up. He led a nearly normal life with the help of his family and friends until one year before he died. Even though it was a struggle, he was determined to keep teaching, riding horses, and farming as long as he could. Jerry Webster will be remembered by all whose lives he touched for the work he did to improve and educate the future farmers and to further horsemanship. iw i 5 I s Mr. Webster assisted local farmers with various problems. Mr. Webster demonstrated forage techniques to adult classes. l l l l l in memoriam - 97 THEY KNEW HOW TO PURSUE LIFE while it lasted Wellsboro celebrated its Centen- nial in 1930.

Calls and appointments with Mr. McKissick were cleared first. Her zest for life was not only apparent but contagious. Always exquisitely groomed and ready to work in spite of nagging fatigue, Joan Taynton lived for her job. Efficiency, preciseness, an eye for detail, and firmness with a touch of under- standing and kindness made her an ideal secretary. She not only had the ability to anticipate Mr. McKissick's needs, but the desire to understand the complexities of his duties which enabled her to handle as many wearisome details of his job as possible. She always questioned the reasoning be- hind the way things were done and the conse- quences of any action. Her job was only a part of her life, however. Sports, both as spectator and a participant, cap- tured her attention. Golfing and swimming pro- vided her with a luxurious tan and a spot was always reserved for her at the sports events at the school. The lesson that she taught everyone was that courage and determination in the face of adversity bring the rewards of a life lived to its fullest. fs-Qavtcb-a ,F . , , if K.

The goal is to be an individual, but to work as a whole. It is a time to break all eternal bonds yet insure a sense of responsibility where freedom and maturity are insepar- able.

It was necessary to learn basic accounting, languages, and key punching in the first year. Afterwards, ad- vanced COBOL, which is Common Business Oriented Language, and RPG, Report Pro- gram Generator, were easier to learn and put into practice in the second year.

Such courses as Shakespearian Drama, Mythology, Journalism, and Short Story cited interest and action in all classes. Mr. Stahler, head of the department, constantly devises ways to arouse enthusiasm in students. Reading is most important in every class, but especially English. Mr. Sleboda, a read- ing specialist and new teacher, stresses voca- bulary and comprehension in class. Book reports are done in all areas of interest, and analyzation of sequence and main ideas is practiced. Understanding that reading is the key to information is the most valued point in a reading curriculum. Information is also important in the Language Department. Changes have taken place by the replacement of Madame Griggs and Frau Kennedy. Madame Briggs and Fraulein Gwardzinski filled the positions. The German group is planning a trip to Germany this April, and some French stu- dents will visit Quebec. Different cultures, along with our own, are discussed in Social Studies.

High school math ranges from business math and computation to Trigonometry and Prob- ability and Statistics. Mr. Tombs reports that two new courses involving computer and vo- tech math are tentatively scheduled for the '76-,77 school year. Many science courses involve math in direct and indirect ways. Sophomores take Ecology, most juniors take Chemistry, and seniors have the choice of more advanced courses such as Physics and Organic Chemis- try. The Outdoor Study Area is being devel- oped for more use in conservation, forestry, and wildlife courses. Another branch of science is Health. The program of teaching is divided into three sections: the first being anatomy and physio- logyg second, mental healthg third and con- cluding section, general health practices-this includes alcohol, drugs, venereal diseases, cancer, and other communicable diseases. Health was moved to the junior yearg this required the extra help of Mrs. Manney and Mrs. Mason. Health should not only be taught, but practiced. So it is in gym class.

Rather than expanding into specialized fields such as computers, the department ,strove to de- velop basic skills and proficiency in each student. Knowing the basics well enable stu- dents to adapt to additional tasks involved in a particular future vocation. According to Mr. Petuskey, a recent survey showed that only two students in the entire school had not taken typing. This proved that every student in the school had the opportunity to participate and learn in business courses, no matter what curriculum they majored in. i if The students of Wellsboro schools 4, worked in the war ef- Q xl- fort in 1918 by making 4: 1' clothes and useful arti- 'V cles for the refugees as part of the Junior Red Cross. . .

The Voca- tional Business Experience Program gives participants an opportunity to be part of a business by acting as a super- vised-worker Hspectatorn. This elective program, which is approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, is open to all seniors. By participating in five programs of thirty days each, acquainted with selective in his places are made the student has an opportunity to become different kinds of employment and to be choice. Assignments to various business based upon preferences listed on a ques- tionnaire given soon after school opens in the fall. Employ- ers are notified of the people assigned to them and the time and dates of each program before workers arrive. Business people benefit from the program as Well as students. A file of prospective workers makes it easy for them to get to know individuals before hiring them without displacing any regular employees. Another work experience program open to students is Food Services. This two year course is financed by Voca- tional Education funds. As juniors, the students learn such basic techniques as following directions, safety practices, and using small commercial appliances. During the senior year, students put their in-class training into practice by actually working in food service establishments in the vicin- ity. The students are evaluated by their employer and their high school supervisor in such areas as cooperation, initia- tive, accuracy, and attitude toward criticism.

To some people, cooking, sewing, and planning for a family seems easy. But Voca- tional Home Economics students know it takes time and practice. Through discussion and trips, like to the Troy Meat Plant and Presbyterian Day Care Center, the students learned tips on how to become better home- makers and family members. While the home makers learned how to cope indoors, the agriculture classes learned to deal with the outdoors-land and animals. In addition to basic agriculture courses stu- dents also have a choice of mini-courses. During the third nine weeks, Vegetable Gardening may be taken to prepare for spring planting, Forestry uses the Outdoor Study Area to identify trees and explore principles of surveying and raising timber. Wildlife deals with game laws, rifles, and ballistics. The same practical skill is combined with mechanical planning in the Industrial Arts Curriculum. Sequential drafting courses prepare pre-engineering students with experi- ence in sketching and lettering. Mini-courses are offered in electricity, wood, plastics and leather-which includes lacing, stamping and carving hides. ----iw 116 - clubs The Industrial Arts Club was one of the new clubs in Wellsboro High School this year. It was developed primarily as an honor club for Industrial Arts majors. Only boys that maintained a high average could belong. The main purpose of the club was to instruct the boys further in their curriculum by working on extra projects that weren't possible to do in the normal course of study. Advisor Daryl Stratton invited speakers to come and explain to the boys various trades that would influence their careers. Careers were also the main concern with the FBLA under the supervision of Mrs. Brown. Despite reduced attendance because of the Vo-Tech program, the Fu- ture Business Leaders of America Club still pursued its goals with its usual fervor. This year the club sponsored several bake sales and a booth at Homecoming carnival night. Their efforts paid off with a visit to the telephone company and the Corning Glass Center. Other activities included guest speakers at meetings and discussions on careers. The FLBA was not the only club with lots of activity. Armed with paint brushes, order blanks and enthusiasm, the Future Farmers of America Club, under direction of Mr. Coder, become involved in another year of projects with the com- munity and school. They began by build- ing and painting a sign as a welcome to visitors and as a county line marker. In the spring the future farmers joined the nation wide ecology movement. They ar- ranged to improve one of the streams in the community for trout fishing. Fund raising activities included a donkey bas- ketball game and a citrus fruit sale. The latter proved to be quite successful- 36,000 oranges and grapefruits were dis- tributed throughout the community. They sold a total of 450 cases-quite a number considering there were eighty pieces of fruit in each case. Besides participating in affairs with the community, the FFA also assisted the school by cleaning up bridges and trails and by planting hundreds of trees in the outdoor study area. While the FFA was busy outdoors, the Future Homemakers of America were busy indoors. Members of the FHA were initiated at the Induction Ceremony, newly created this year. Each new mem- ber read a piece about the emblem of FHA, lit a candle, received a rose, and recited lines from their creed. Then new members and old traveled to the State Farm Show and the annual spring conven- tion at Gettysburg. Their fund raising projects for these trips included the don- key basketball game, a booth at Home- coming and selling candy bars. .---E Future Homemakers of America FRONT ROW: Bonnie Sticklin, Carl Losinger, Kasey, Cox, Laura Brechbill, ROW TWO: Kathy McCollum, Denise Bliss, Becky Neal, Eldeen Sims, Colleen Denver, Mrs. Royce Weber, Darren Wilson, Christine VanDergrift, Cindi Beard, Becky Dilly.

It's the Girls' Drill Team and this year, their first, was an extremely busy one. Sherry Riley, their adviser, assumed the responsibility of teaching the girls, sixteen marchers ranging from freshmen to seniors, march- ing skills, splits, and kicks. The team per- formed at basketball games and received an invitation to participate in the Laurel Festival, and also at Gettysburg for a Bicentennial parade. They started fund raising early with bake sales and a dance. While the Girls' Drill Team started with bake sales, the Rod and Gun Club started their year off with a bang--and their successful turkey shoot. The contest included a bench shoot, shooting while resting the gun on a tableg a free shoot, shooting while standingg and a skeet shoot, shooting clay pigeons with a shot- gun. The club puts on a wildlife assembly for the school, and, in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Fish Commission, stocks fish in various creeks and rivers in the area. 'I'he Rod and Gun Club will top their activities with a spring picnic and a trip to the fish hatcheries in Galeton. When the Rod and Gun wants to put on its wildlife assembly, who will run the projector? Most likely one of the mem- bers of the beneficial, but over looked club, the AV Club. Under the leadership of Mr. Kilbourne, the club, working with audio-visual equipment, performs many important and necessary jobs. The older members teach the newer ones how to run the equipment so they can work the video equipment at basketball games, set up equipment to be used on stage, work the lights, and run any AV equipment used in assemblies. The AV Club also performs services such as getting ma- chines to various teachers and working equipment for the Community Concerts and other stage productions. Production of expert chess players was one of the main goals of the chess club. Checkmate was a word that could often be heard coming from the library on days the club met. Chess club is a club for anyone interested in learning how to play chess or for those interested in improving their game. The chess players ranged from beginners to advanced. The members participated in play-off matches to deter- mine the five best players. The five best then competed against players from other schools in the area. ..-pas ' f fi i f-S--rjixn-fray 40 L -b 'r d - V ffl-55 Qffele blundgrbujg' A-V Club Kent Chilson, Elwood West, Neil Heichel, Bob Hawk, Andy Hickey. clubs '---- 119 Girls' Drill Team FRONT ROW: Cindy Starkwcather, Debbie , . .

These students assisted in distributing fine slips, making bulletin boards, and becoming acquainted with clerical duties. With the size of the club limited to people willing to work, each person had time to learn more about various aspects of the library. While the Library Club worked to keep circulation moving, the Science Club struggled to make new activities success- ful. Advisor, Mr. English and President, David Crist combined their efforts to make this year's Science Club as interes- ting and productive as possible. Dr. Mullen, visiting from Mansfield State Col- lege, lectured on astronomy during an activity period. Future plans included other speakers for activities and experi- mentation with Drosophilia fruit flies. A weather station at the school is also a prospect for the future. Although ar- rangements are not complete, the mem- bers plan to have a fund raising project to make money for next year's club. Money was not an important issue with the Creative Writers' Club. Instead the aspiring young writers strived to pro- duce innumerable sheets of poetry. Under the direction of advisor, Mr. Stahler, President, Jody Huffman, and Vice Presi- dent, Ann Poling, the club read and dis- cussed poetry of various authors. They learned to recognize and analyze style and create one of their own. Their efforts were published in their club booklet. Truly efforts were not only literary, but monetary too. .Secretary-Treasurer proudly announced that this was the first year the club ever had any money. Their gains resulted from a fund-raising cam- paign of selling candles at Christmas time. They planned to spend the money on a spring smorgasboard for the members. Writers and actors have been known to go hand in hand. Although the people associate, the clubs are two separate ones. The. actors create the Drama Club. This year the Drama Club, under the direction of Mrs. Williams, Mr. French, and student teacher, Miss Gehret, presented a totally different type of program. The club per- formed a series of three small skits writ- ten by Wellsboro High School students in a drama seminar last year. The program contained a one-act professionally written play, and several songs. Club members and other students presented BYE, BYE, BIRDIE as the spring musical. Both pro- ductions won wide acclaim from their audiences. a-0-vw Q. All X ,f do 1 D G V4 C iii l comecl A tragefbg masts Creative Writers FRONT ROW: Shirley Whitford, Carol Purchase, Julie White.

The mem- bers explore various job opportunities and requirements for the jobs. They in- vestigate positions which can be obtained by merely on-the-job training to occupa- tions which require from two to four years of post-graduate study. All different fields are discussed, from therapists to R.N.'s to technologists. The objectives of the club are to gain insight. Insight into a job and personal satisfaction is the most important decision to make: Activities range from use of audio-visual equipment to field trips. Insight was just as important to the Art Club-insight into art-not Health Ca- reers. The Art Club's annual trip in late May took them. to the Brandywine Art Museum in Chaddsford, Pennsylvania where they viewed a combined gallery of Andrew Wyeth works and ecology ex- hibits. An added attraction was a side trip to the Du Pont Gardens in Wilmington, Maryland. The yearly trip was financed by the selling of candy bars, whose wrap- pers were exchangeable for hamburgers at the Tastee-Freez. Throughout the year the members enjoyed demonstrations of different art techniques: collograph print- ing, pottery, and God's eye weaving. They also saw a film of last year's trip to the Albright Knox Gallery in Buffalo, Old Fort Niagara, and Niagara Falls. Candy bars also brought a source of income for the National Honor Society. They used the money to sponsor a foster child in the Dominican Republic. Four- teen year old Felix Rosa plans to be a teacher someday, but could not make it without help. His family are farmers and there are more children than him to care for. He expressed his gratitude by a letter and a picture to the Honor Society. While the honorary group of the school was busy with candy bars, the governing body of the school, Student Council, participated in several activities, both old and new. This year Student Council president Brion Johnson got members involved in the organization. For the first time yearbook sales were handled by homeroom representatives. The group donated S100 to the Multiple Sclerosis driveg the money was divided among the Seniors who were to play in the AllStar game at Bucknell. Basketball games and wrestling matches were broad- casted on the radio. Student Council bought two Bicentennial flagsg one to be presented to the school, the other was bought by the Senior class. ---5 clubs F 123 National Honor Society FRONT ROW: Dorothy Skinner, Susan Nicho- las, Elaine Hughes, Linda Strange, Jeanne Cress- An : ' , -Y ster, Kathy Doud, Debbie Buss, Kurt I-Ieisey, Cathi McDaniel, David Crist.

Lettermans' club kept busy this year by raising money to pay off Garrisons' for the Letterman's jac ets purchased last year. They worked hard to raise enough money to get green and white Varsity sweaters for the Seniors. The club spon- sored the concession stand at the boys' basketball games and were busy at home baking for bakesales. In February, the Varsity letterman hosted the Harlem Diplomats, a talented comedy basketball team. Each week an outstanding athlete was featured in the Gazette, the person chosen showed the qualities of an ideal athlete. A committee of Letterman's Club members elected the athlete by taking into consideration both his ability and sportsmanship. There exists within the school a club, composed mostly of girls, which has nothing-except spirit. The Pep Club is responsible for cheering on the players, both boys and girls, in all sports. The members decorate the halls with signs which give confidence to the athletes, and sit together at pep rallies and games. The Pep Club screams for victories: the play- ers make sure they get them. Even though most clubs plan activities inside the school, some are strictly out- door groups. One of these is the Snow- mobile Club. Members of the Snow- mobile Club concentrated on first-aide and safety this year. These rules were important because they could be incor- porated into their various outings. The irst outing, supervised by Mr. Calderwood, took place at the end of January. A proximately twenty Snow- mobilers rod,e to the Asaph-Baldwin Run area for an all day ride with only a lunch stop for hotdogs at Asaph Park. They planned another ride for February. Be- ore the trips the members studied maps of the different areas and viewed films of safe Snowmobiling techniques. Another snow-loving grou was the Ski Club. The club, under the direction of Mr. Mann and Mr. Yeager, planned a trip to Killington, Vermont in arch of this year. The four day trip, encom assing two days of travel and two days oflskiing centered around the Trail Side Dorms, where the club enjoyed reduced prices in a relaxed atmosphere. The dorms are run by young people who furnish a izza par- ty every year and who developednan inter- esting method of working up their board- ers by playing a guitar and flute. They also provided snowshoes for apresski en- tertainment. The trip was funded by dues and the sponsorship of the annual cheer- leading contest and dance. ---.vw .ll i .f lim qx fngg0Yl,I0l'l2 X .

With so many new clubs formed this year, meetings were few, and long time lapses hindered the progress of the members. They found that one period a month was difficult to get much accom- plished in, and the animals often spoiled. Freezers were needed to keep the specimens until glass eyes and body fonns were received from companies. It took four or five hours to completely finish an animal after all the drying and extracting was done. The Taxidermy Club preserved ani- mals through chemicals and stuffingg meanwhile, another club preserved ani- mals, and many other objects .and scenes, quite differently-through pho- tography. In the beginning, camera operation, developing techniques, and proficiency were stressed. Art was put aside until these essentials were per- fected. Then each student decided what category of work he would specialize in. owned c?ameras, 'so 'iio group fieliftrips were undertaken this year. Undoubtedly trips were the focal point of the Bicycle Club this year. Keep your chain oiled, make sure your brakes work properly, and check your tires for a sufficient amount of air. These rules were emphasized in meet- ings of the new club. After everyone took the proper safety precautions, Mrs. Mason led an expedition to Hills Creek Lake. Her husband drove behind the group to pick up any stragglers who might not have made it in time to the group picnic and afternoon activities. Mrs. Mason had a busy year. This was her first year in Sesior High, and she also took charge of not one but two extracurricular clubs-Bicycle and Craft. Organization was the key word in Craft Club this year.

During the club meetings, the members performed skits in the French language. Young Frankenstein, and Little Red Ridinghood' were among the club's pro- ductions. Bake sales took place every week to raise money for a trip to Quebec in April. A dinner was organized for se- niors in the spring. The trip and dinner, while exposing students to the language. will provide a background for those who may go to France next year. While the French Club was planning ahead for next year, the German Club had to plan their trip to Germany this year. Approximately twenty students tried desperately to payback all debts. Under the supervision ofthe new German teacher, Miss Gwardzinski, committees were formed to hold dances, bake sales, and a carnival party. The French and German clubs eagerly made arrangements to visit foreign coun- tries, and the Foreign Student Club made arrangements for a party. The party was unusual, to say the least, with visitorsw and parts of visitors. The witch's eyes as she eagerly awaited the sub- 'stoidin the coiibf the cellar at Madame Brigg's house in Keeneyville and cackled at the sound of frightened girls' screams. The girls, blind- folded, were led through a maze of ex- tracted body parts by a fellow member of the club. Peeled grapes for eyeballs, cooked spaghetti for intestines, and crackers for dead bones became substi- tutes for the remains of a corpse. Once out of the cellar, the members enjoyed their magnificent Halloween feast. Jack- O-Lanterns glowed on the front porch as the students ate candied and caramel ap- ples and drank punch. Snacks of all sorts were on every table, and to top every- thing a gigantic cake was lit in celebration of Kyoko, our foreign exchange stu- dent's, birthday. The Foreign Student Club planned additional parties after their Halloween success. Success was not only apparent in the Foreign Student Club, but in the Future Teachers' Club which worked to rebuild enthusiasm. They accomplished this by scheduling additional meetings, planning field trips, and discussing the values of teaching. Their new advisor, Mrs. Linck, set the precedent of being the first club advisor who was not a faculty member. Under her supervision, the members ex- plored the opportunities open in the pro- fesimcc, . -c-.eeee ob -si E -W-fw . ,un A w ' . . ,. zb- Q Wlitfimw Q N . 3 . 1-.. .:,. ,iQ?',. 5 35551 K A Q, 4 , .

Yes, girls at Wellsboro Senior High infiltrated the world of cross coun- try this fall. The girls'ru1es for cross country were the same as the boys' except the course they ran was a little shorter. The girls practiced hard each night after school with the boys. This proved to be an added psychological factor as no boy wants to be beaten by a girl and the girls want to prove them- selves as equals. The girls did prove themselves as equals by coming in the N.T.L. and in districts.

Against Thomas Edison, Hornet defense made good stands to thwart Spartan's scoring effort. Even better, the defeat over the Spartarfs was the first in four years. The backfield players were excellent runners, and the defense players were unyielding blockers. Plays were planned in detail, and the boys concentrated on executing them.

After scouting the other team's strategies, practices consisted of running plays that enabled the team to initi- ate their defensive moves. The Wellsboro JV 's certainly did not lack enthusiasm in 1975 - only points. Starting with a victory over Towanda, the boys felt assured that they could steal the remaining sea- son. It turned out, however, that they were stolen from, for the Var- sity team needed more players and looked to the JV team for some of the best. With this loss of experience, the Junior Varsity faced a problem -- most of their opponents were larger and older. This proved to be the major downfall of the team. But the Junior Varsity can look forward to a brighter year. They learned how to lose and losing is part of the game. And with this knowledge, they can amend their deficiencies, and work toward a better team. .1 ti Size was a problem for the J.V.'s along with the fact that basically they were a rookie teamg but the most important point was that they were dedicated, radi- ating a great desire to win.

The Hornet wres- tler started to dance, waiting for the precise moment to make his move for a takedown. He was ready to prove his control when he landed an arm above the elbow and a hand on a leg to throw his opponent on his back for a quick two points. This was a familiar scene to all of this season's matmen. While winning the meet takes team effort, each member gave something to achieve it. Chester Clark was very good in lightweight wrestling at 98 pounds. At each meet, he got the team a win, and was a great psychological boost to the upcoming wrestlers. Out for his first year, Senior Kurt Heisey showed a lot of determination to make up for his lack of experience.

I X ' Junior Steve Gobble, the team's heavyweight, was the only one in league and on the team to go unde- feated. His secret of success was his patient force and the use of his greater strength to overcome his opponent. In his second year for Wellsboro, he is the holder of all school records. Among these are his twelve pins, 77 team points, and twenty take downs. In addition, he didn't give up any team points. Tri-captains Darrel Keck, Daryl Kauffman, and Rick Ives were the strength of the team. Keck was known for going out and getting his pin. For the last three years Coach Bailey has been able to count on him for a ready six points. All his meets this year were won by pins except two. While Keck, specialized in pins, Kauffman was busy showing his control with takedowns. By such moves as a sin- gle and double leg takedown and a fireman's carry, which are each awarded two points, Kauffman piled up the points. Rick Ives was known for stacking his guy - stand- ing his opponent on his shoulders and head with feet in the air. Ives' big advantage was the size of his hands which made it impossible to escape his grasp. For the second year in a row, the boys had a female manager. Last year it was Mary Hewitt who was replaced by her sister, Teresa. Due to the Supreme Court ruling last year, the team was open to girls but none turned out. In another league one school had a girl on the team but no one would wrestle with her. Building their bodies, developing added strength and controlling their weight were of constant concern to the men on the team. Their strength lay Within themselves as they cheered on teammates and did all they could to contribute to a winning year. si dl Darryl Kauffman led the team in the prematch butterfly warm-ups. --155' CD is L-if 57' E+ H ml 50 U1 U2 FP Q se 155. ,VJ Q2 -aa Q -o-1 ' i , 4 A Coach Bailey and his, matrnen started the season out with a strike againstithem ,frorn the verybegin- ningQ Last .season the team started with forty boysandlended up with thirty, A little more than half of those thirtyturned, out thiswyear.

N. 3 boys' gymnastics The boys' gymnastics team oper- ates on an individual basis, with ad- vice and criticism from fellow mem- bers. Boys sign up with Mr. Antoine and come to practices. Practices started after Christmas and took place from 8:00 to 8:45 for two or three mornings a week during bas- ketball and wrestling seasons. During March the boys practiced after school. By then the number dwindled from twenty to twelve. Skills for gymnastics begin in seventh grade where a phase of gymnastics is taught. By continuing and specializing on their choice of equipment, the boys are able to make up their own routines and perform them with confidence. Mr. Antoine supervises routines and helps to perfect them, but the boys are the primary creators. This was not a league competi- tion sport, participants were on their own. Although there was no league competition, there was com- petition - the boys competed against themselves. Satisfaction came from practicing until routines were perfect, and they enjoyed the freedom of changing the routine if they wished. The equipment in- cluded the parallel bars, horizontal bar, tramp, horse fwhich is used to vault overj, and the mats. Boys and girls can only work together on the mats and tramp. On these the rou- tines are nearly the same, whereas on all other equipment they are completely different. Boys tend to use routines requiring muscle power while the girls depend on grace and form, Both boys' and girls' routines center on agility, timing, and coor- dination, these skills must be devel- oped in gymnasts. After much hard work and development, they put on a school presentation that the stu- dents loved. .4 11 E FRONT ROW: Richard Cruttenden, Marty Knowlton, 1 Tony Ingerick, Jerry Miller, Mike Moyer, Rick Cisco.

Six of the girls on the team traveled to Montoursville for a dis- trict meet which was the final showing of the gymnasts in competition. Coached by Karen Webster, these agile girls took part in four events during the meets. These were the beam, the unevens, the horse and the floor exercises per- formed on mats. There were four major competitors in each event from each school and a fifth as exhibitionist. Differ- ent girls participated in each meet. Coach Webster placed the girls in the line-up according to skills and ability shown dur- ing practice of their routines. Scoring for the team was like that used in the Olympics. It is based on a one to ten scale. Only the highest three scorers in each event, for each school, are calculated for the team score. After much hard work, this team was to be congratulated for a fine season!

Some devoted members of the Pep Band gave our team the spirit needed to win. Mr. Hillman made sure the percussion line kept in step, since they comprised the backbone ofthe entire marching band. Wellsboro Sr. High Band formed a victory line for the Hornets during Homecoming half time.

Ever since Mr. Hillman received the letter that accepted us to join in with a Bicentennial tribute in Orlando, Florida, we never gave up. By selling chances, calendars, popcorn, Rex cleaner, and tickets to the concert, we reached our goal of Sl7,000. Like all organizations, we had our good times and our bad times. We as a group, had to gain the trust and respect from the community and the students. During the football season, some members even shed tears because of the hard times. We had lost our seats on the fifty yard line to parents who loved the sport. Some officials did not believe that we deserved such good seats. To show how much we wanted our original seats, we went on the field and did our best show ever. Holding our heads up high and smiling at the crowd, our seats were returned with deep apology. Right after football season, the first major money proj- ect began. We called it Tag Day. Two days were spent in long underwear concealed by band uniforms, asking for donations to send us to Florida. Cold noses and toes paid off with a big 5900. Finally February 20 arrived. Obviously our hard work had materialized into a great experience. We enjoyed meeting people, seeing the sights, and performing for the judges. By the time we got home, everyone was totally exhausted. No one will ever forget the trip that took months to plan. We did the best we could and after making our Florida dream a reality, we were appreciated more. Our school's representation in 1976 was made possible by our hardworking band, ,1 11 Ii 4-K4 4 4 4 4444414444: Y I' The old state high- 1: way, a dirt road, to . Mansfield was Pa.

Whenever this familiar roar from Drum Major- ette, Debbie Lada, was heard, everybody knew that we were ready. As she gave the four blast- ing whistles, the Honor Guard led the Color Guard, Majorettes, and Debbie Lada down the field. We practiced hard five days a week and sometimes even on Saturdays to put on a flashy show. During the warm weather, all of us ven- tured outside to seek the sun and practice our drills. Usually, Mrs. Stone would help the major- ettes, color guards and honor guards with their routines, but Debbie Lada learned her skills at a camp this summer, After a long week, she ex- celled in her class and received a silver medal at the closincg ceremonies. Since everybody was determine to do their best, we set our goals way above last year's standards. We wanted to show our pep and pride towards the school- and we did just that. Our gang was the peppiest group at all the football games and pep rallies. We enjoyed rooting for our team because they represented us on and off the field. For a lot of us, this will be our last year together. Certainly we will miss the bus rides, the football games, and the rooting sections.

Q WW dew the priviilcge aj at possi ble 59 florida trip - 177 ch fun Over one thousand miles on a chartered bus to the Sunshine State resulted in sore tailbones and lots of fun. At six o'clock in the morning, ninety-three people, including eight chaperones and two bus drivers, loaded the gear and were on their way to the beautiful state of Florida. We spent our first night in Rocky Mount, N.C. Here was our first experience of four in the motel, Days Inn. Then at a bright 5:00 a.m. we woke up to start anotherjoyful ride amidst the melodious flutes, blaring screams, and exciting card games. Finally, after two long days on the road, we reached our destination - Orlando, Florida. That night we went to Florida Southern College to the adjudication. In front of four distinguished judges and other guests, we played our very best. After we finished, a band from Aiken, S.C. presented their selec- tions and then all of us went to the banquet to hear the results. We were given the Festival Merit Award - fourth place. We also received a trophy.. The next day, Monday, was the day we had longed for, it was our trip to Disney World. After three hours of touring, we got ready for America on Parade. It was a nice day to march, not too warm with a light breeze. While march- ing down Main Street and looking up at Cinderella's Castle, we realized what an honor it was to march in front of eighty thousand peo- ple. There wasn't any problem in keeping a smile on your face with the Disney characters, tourists and festival officials watching every move we made. When the parade was over, once again we toured the Magic Kingdom, riding the space shuttle in Space Mountain, being haunted in the Haunted Mansion, and being enchanted each moment in Small World were all part of the great experiences in the mystical land. As seven o'clock arrived, sad faces dawned on us since we had to leave the Wonderful Worlu of Disney, but not for long. Then we traveled to the Lake Buena Vista shopping plaza to perform for the last time in front of the shoppers including about twenty people from Pennsylvania who were cheering us on. At the close of the day, we retreated to the motel for a refreshing swim, an attempt at the pinball machines, or a Chinese fire drill between two adjoining rooms. Our last day in Florida was spent touring Kennedy Space Center, St. Augustine, and the Old Jail. Within a few hours, Florida was behind us and cold weather was ahead. .3 11 Sue Bailey and Clare Wenner faded into the crowd that had watched them march earlier. ment on Mam Street went bankrupt.

One big thing that kept us different from all other choirs in the area was the fact that we were a choir. Our songs and choice of music always had a meaning behind it, where a chorus is thought of as having something pleasing and popular to them. Students were not heavy in supporting us, but we had pride in ourselves and enjoyed what we were doing.

We can see how our country has changed, has progressed. But how have the people changed with the country? Reflections will prove the desire for developing un- precedented ideas, and making them work. As the revolution from traditional to varied and modern attitudes took place in the country, it did with our yearbook, and it did within us. All of us at one time are introspective, we see reflections of ourselves, how we have grown, changed, branched out to develop into mature in- dividuals. The wonder of what life will hold is what makes us eager to live and grow, but reflection gives no answer to the future. as we pursue lit' , libert , and happiness J i s 5 5 w .

The archery presentation was one of the many assemblies that students attended. They ranged from orchestras to professional programs, such as clowns and dogs. The Laurel Arts Festival Committee was responsible for the musical productions, which were successful and received a good response from students, The Phoenix Festival Company of London, England under the direction of Mr. Derek Campbell came and performed A Midsummer Nighfs Dream for the community. Another group of visitors from England appeared the following week. A youth orchestra, composed of people from ages ten to twenty-five, traveled from Leicester. Under the supervision of Miss Avis Fawcett, they played solely for enjoymentg they practiced twice a week and delighted in playing together. Playing music was also the goal of the Mansfield State College Wind Ensemble, who played in another assembly for the school. The Ensemble, composed of about forty people, is one of the finest in the county. The students are selected and then must undergo an audition for a place in the group. Mr. Donald Stanley, as associate professor of music at Mansfield State College, conducted them. Music and drama assemblies dominated the stage this year. The students witnessed one of the funniest plays in the county when Mansfield players performed The Contrast, a comedy of manners. The Constrast, the first American comic play ever written, was written in 1787 by Royall Tyler. Students in Mansfield Theatre and Speech Communications tour every semester with their director, Frank Bull. When they presented the play, the auditorium resounded with laughter throughout the aftemoon. Another actor did skits of Revolutionary soldiers, The Battle of Bunker Hill, and Patrick Henry. Student council arranged the assembly, but for the o praise was left unspoken most part the musical and dramatic assemblies were presented by the Laurel Arts Festival and the chairperson, Mrs. Keene. She felt that the presentations were successful and the response of the complete student body was exceptional. Going to the assemblies doesn't always mean being entertained. In May, awards were given. The seventeenth recognition was given to athletes who had not received awards at the sports award banquet. Various teams and individuals were recognized for breaking records and attending and placing at District andfor State Competition. A special award was made to one outstanding boy and girl of the Senior class who were chosen by their classmates - The Babe Ruth Award. The following morning a different group of students sat on the edges of their seats in anticipation. They may have been restless during the assembly the previous day, but now it was their turn to troop up on the stage for some well earned recognition. The hard work finally paid off and they were able to present their proud parents with a number of certificates, medals, pins and charms. Although no one knew beforehand who would receive the various subject awards, few people were surprised to hear their names called. There was something for everybody, even if it was only a small pin for being on the honor roll. One thing was certain, by the end of the program, all the efforts were worth it. Q E P s 5 if . f-N i Champions come in all shapes and sizes. The girls' volleyball team was living proof of this. On awards day the IV wrestlers received recognition for the hard work needed to gain experience for varsity competition in the future. n. 1, Q 5 M si In 4 l awards and assemblies - 3 Iudy Mickey and Lori Moss found Mr. Yeager a willing slave, even though he could only carry two purses at one time. Singing and dancing augmented the orchestral program presented by students from Leicester, England. Teri Mitchell's views on fund raising appealed to the student body enabling her to win the Student Council presidency. Morris Run was once a boom town with a population of 2,350 because of coal mining. Freddie the Clown entertained students with funny antics and taught them some clown basics. Students at the Senior High were captivated by the performance of The Contrast. The setting for the play was the colonies during the seventeen-seventies. The Contrast, written during the age of elegance, poked fun at the customs and dress of the period. As well as being a comedy, it was a romance between a wealthy girl and a frontier soldier with a happy ending. 4 - jv volleyball o recognition, but just as proud 10 good serves 25 wall volleys 15 wall bumps 10 good spikes 5 Iapanese Rolls scrimmage 1 heaping teaspoon pep and determination pinch of spirit Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.

After her first year as volleyball coach, Miss McNaight guided the IV volleyball team into taking the NTL-West title. Coach McNaight's winning recipe helped the IV team in reaching their goal. The IV girls started their winning season by defeating Elkland. They continued their streak by upsetting Cowanesque Valley and Galeton. The IV Homets then ran into tough opposition as Liberty squeaked through with a victory, after three close games. The girls did not let up, but pushed on with more power and defeated the remainder of their opponents, which were Williamson, Mansfield, and North Penn. As the season concluded, the IV's had won the top honor of NTL-West Champions. Captain of the IV volleyball team was Cheri Cruttenden and Ianet Spink was co-captain. Backed with a good supply of sophomores, and freshman, the IV team had few weaknesses. The starters played an important role, however, the work and ambition of the whole team led to their championship. Sally Sweet's petite size had little effect on her powerful serves and spikes FRONT ROW: Mary Petusky, Tami Wheatley, Ianette Meredith, Anne Carson.

The streets of Wellsboro were paved in 1909. This gave the town a superior advantage over other county residents who traveled over plank roads. 6 - varsity volleyball The dream of states became a reality A change in strategies and a few comy jokes were the subjects of discussion during a time out.

The varsity Hornets won every match and game except one. Miss McNaight, coaching for her first year, led her team to an overall nine and two record. Captain and four-year starter Sue Sweet and co- captain JoAnne Gridley guided the team along the road to victory.

Arriving at Shippensburg, the Hornets had one last time to practice that night. The team was rested and ready the morning of April 24th to begin the state competition. Having arrived at the gym, the girls played York Suburban, the defending PIAA champs. York Suburban proved too powerful for the Hornets and defeated them in two games. The Hornets were still in the running for the crown because at states double elimination is used. Punxsatawney was their next opponent and again the Hornets were defeated, eliminating them from Although their league record was perfect, the starting line-up still got those pre-game butterflies. further competition. Even though the varsity team did not place at states, they had concluded their season as NTL - West, league, and District IV champions. pf.

Kim MacAfee, played by Diane Norager, was enchanted by the debonair manner of Vic Swendrowski as Birdie BIRDIE With news of Kim MacAfee and Hugo Peabody getting pinned, Sweet Apple phones buzzed. Tioga County was created in 1804. How many times does a real rock star come to a small town? Well, that's what happened, one week- end when Conrad Birdie, America's dreamboat, wiggled his way onto the stage at Wellsboro Senior High. Followed everywhere by screaming teens, Conrad stood in the spotlight to give One Last Kiss to Kim Macafee before entering the army. Behind the limelight, a romance brewed between Conrad's manager and his secretary Rosie Alvarez much to the dismay of Albert Peterson's mother. Bye, Bye, Birdie, this year's musical production, was a huge success, but not without a lot of frayed nerves and short nights on the part of both cast and crew. For two mont.hs, dramatic voices and musical notes could be heard floating through the auditorium doors. Under the direction of Mrs. Nancy Williams, with the aid of Mrs. Peterson and Mr. Iames Hillman, everyday students blossomed into actors and actresses ready to head for Broadway. Behind the scenes, Miss Genine Gehret transformed a small high school stage into something comparable to Radio City Music Hall. For three memorable nights, the audience rolled in their seats at the hilarious comedy, and then settled back in their seats to hear the sweet strains of tender love songs. Of course, there were forgotten lines, missed entrances and scenery mistakes, but everyone did his best to make the spring musical a flawless show. More than once, the Sweet Apple railroad sign fell off and the barroom scenery was upside down, but despite these occasional crises. Everything was Rosie A series of conflicts outlined the plot of Bye, Bye Birdie all with heart strings attached: between employer and employee, teen steadies and family. t the finish they Were number one! Pass that red hot stuffl somebody yelled. Not the catsup, you guys - the stuff you put on your legs. Temperatures plunged, out came mittens, and in came new records as the girls swung into their second track season. The mercury rose gradually, but the Homets were hot from the start. Records were smashed as the Homets gained speed. Betty Swenson lowered her hold time in the 80 yard low hurdles to 11.34 Lorraine Gridley shaved split seconds off the 100 yard dash in 12.15. Kathy Lada ra.n the 880 yard run in 2:33, breaking her own record. Some speedy new freshmen broke records.
