VOLUME XXVW I'H'4'7 4 in 5 l 1 , P' ' I I 1' I Gur Alma Mater The youth that from his mother's home goes forth to Whitehall high, Can ne'er be said to wildly roam, or fade in clouds well nigh, So let us now the truth bestow, and here our altars raise, And our dear Alma Mater praise, our Alma Mater praise. When poverty ensnares' the home, poor girls will sob and weep, Or, if their strength won't let them come, they'll soon in silence sleep, And, so, with love and sacrifice, to her let's altars raise, And our dear Alma Mater praise, our Alma Mater praise. Her graduates are strong and firm, and build both hearth and home, Her sons and daughters will each term back to her altars roam, And there will bend and bow and pray, until a shrine they raise, And their dear Alma Mater praise, their Alma Mater praise. -I-Ieilman CTune: Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes J ,s i Foreword .

Ours is a sincere appreciation of the time they gave unstintingly to the legal and financial administration of the schools of our township.

Raymond Brown Visual Education Club This is a newly organized club, under the guidance of Mr. Snyder. Its purpose is to form a well-trained staff, capable of assisting every teacher in the school to make greater use ot projected teaching aids. Although the club is still in its infancy, the members have been given training in sharing responsibilities in properly caring for equipment and materials, and in the proper operation of the projectors. To accomplish the purpose ot this club will require a great amount of experience, which, of course, will require much time and practice in using the projectors. However, within another year, the members expect to be able to use the equipment efficiently, so they can give their services to those teachers who may request them. We, the senior members of the club, hope that the other members will achieve the purpose that we had hoped to accomplish during the past year. OFFICERS President ........

Girls' Basketball Season Girls' basketball was revived this year after a sixteen- year lapse. Although victories were neglible, the season was considered a success. Combining a will to win, sportsmanship, excellent coaching, etc., the girls proved worthy to face all opposition. The experience gained this year will show in next season's Win column. Varsity Basketball Season The Zephyrs, under their able coach, Bob Steckel, enjoyed another suc cessful season. The Zephyrs finished both the first and second halves in second place. One of the tough breaks the scrappy cagers had was a 53 to 51 set-hack at the hands of that outstanding Catasauqua team. Players who will he lost to next year's squad include: Palco, George Simmons, Spanitz, Matika, and Tomasic. Those players returning will include Fisher, Peters, Stofflet, Madouse, and Hartzell.

When We Were Seniors GIRL- SHY Handsome Tom Arsdale and his lady-killer roommate, Oke, are on the verge of graduation from college. Tom has a terrific reputation as a woman- hater. He wishes he could stop being girl-shy, and meet nice girls like - well, take Babs Sanford! His roommate, Oke, is a tremendous contrast to Tom. Oke loves girls. l-le adores them. And he's faithful to two and three at a time. Thinking that Tom has a hate on women, Babs Sanford decides she'll do something about it. She manages to change places with the girl who cleans up Tom's and Oke's room. This should give her a chance to work on girl-shy Tom -- and it certainly does. The impression Babs makes on Tom when he first sees her is about as unnoticeable as two planets crashing in mid-air, Then, just as something beautiful starts to develop between Tom and Babs, in comes Tom's father with a girl from home. Tom's father thinks the girl from home is just the girl for Tom. Babs is put on the spot when the girl she changed places with returns. The mix-up grows, and poor Tom wishes he could just evaporate out of it all. But the audience is glad he can't. ,. ,, ,, , , When We Were luniors BEST FOOT FORWARD The boys at Winsocki Prep are making frenzied preparations to receive the girls who are coming up for the big annual dance. in the midst of the crackling lines and humorous discussion of dates comes Bud Hooper, who is plenty gloomy. His roommates finally find out the troulole. A month ago when they went to see a movie starring Gale Ioy -W the Wham girl - the trouble started. Bud got carried away and he wrote the movie star, asking her to come to the prom. And she accepts! tThey don't know how she needs a publicity breakll Bud has hastily written his regular date, Helen, that he has had an attack of the grippe and he expects to have it until after the dance. But, so that the faculty won't get angry, Bud tries to take the publicity-needing Gale loy to the dance as his girl Helen -- and then Helen arrives! Bud gets deeper and deeper into trouble, and the final haDtDY solution that saves Bud from being expelled makes this the finest youthful comedy. ? Christmas Snow Ba-ill ttDance Oh, how we danced . . . at the Snow Ball, the Christmas of '46 dance, sponsored by the senior class. The lights were low, music was soft, and the old gym floor was Waxed to a slippery finish. The gang above looks dreamy as they glide across the floor. This scene is typical of the many successful dances the class of '47 promoted. ,,'.-11' ,3 N.

HOPE GRUVER 619473 GLORIA STEYERT 119453 ELSIE YOST H9469 Queen of the lunior Prom Miss Lucille Makovitz, of the class of 1945, originated the idea of selecting a queen of the Iunior Prom. The candidate is nominated by the senior class, and the senior class has the privilege of casting the votes. Miss Gloria Steyert, Miss Elsie Yost, and Miss Hope Gruver were the recipients of this honor in 1945, 1946, and 1947, re spectively. , There is an impressive ceremony con- nected with the coronation. A fanfare is given by the orchestra, at which time the queen and her twelve attendants make their entrance and proceed with the grand march. The abdicating queen crowns the new queen and presents her with a gift from the senior class. The class of 1947 has carried on the custom set by the class of 1945 and hopes that it will become a traditional ceremony of future classes at Whitehall High School. 1946-1947 SCHOOL CALENDAR SEPTEMBER 4.
