While erasing from sight a month that has exhausted its days and hours, he reveals a new challenge. Perhaps particular dates reflect something meaningful, a moment he has long I looked forward to. Or maybe the previous month was filled with so many anxieties he is relieved that it has ended. High school students quickly learn to associate the 10 divisions of the school year with certain events. But each year is different and to rely on similarities from past experiences is impossible. Because each group that accomplishes its goal is made up of distinct individuals, the exact happenings of 1973-74 never occurred before, nor will they be repeated. All members of a group are significant for if one is deleted, the deed carried out would be altered. Maybe a record of results would not show the difference, but a true, in depth account would. Thus, recognizing more than just dates on a calendar or the hours of the day, 1974 was people in action, and for Whitehall it was unique. IMF Had it been any other shortstop throwing the ball to any other first baseman would the play have ended a game, captured a league title, and moreover a triple crown? If it is fate that puts people in the right place at the right time, Whitehall found a friend in destiny. The dexterity of its athletes was unsurpassed, and the triumphs of the Zephyr teams were echoed in every corner of theschool and community. As the sports facilities improved,so did the athletic squads. Even academics and organizations had to take a back seat to the competitors. School bells rang once again as September 5 marked the beginning of 10 months of a new social, academic, and competitive atmosphere — IV Football-Palmerton — Girls' Field FFockey — (BYE) as course requirements were set at a minimum and students were free to choose subjects which they felt would pe beneficial to them. 17 — Girls' Field Hockey — Stroudsburg 18 — Cross Country - Palmerton 4 ■ — Athletic Council Meeting — Crosscountry — Triangular Meet Salisbury — Whitehall — Easton — Golf—Northampton the rigors of high school life, 396 freshmen welcomed their first-day orientation.

Public aid to private and parochial schools was an issue that inflamed taxpayers in all portions of the country. In the Whitehall-Coplay School District, the aid was restricted mostly to transportation and the controversy was much more subdued but present nonetheless. Under Act 372, effective July 1, 1973, explained Dr. George Steckel, school superintendent, Pennsylvania school districts must provide or contract to provide transportation for all students living in the district and attending a non-public school within a 10-mile radius. Whitehall High School students became aware of the law when they noticed Allentown Central Catholic students on the buses at the start of the school term. I think busing Central kids was a good idea, stated Karen Kline, Whitehall junior, so long as the buses didn't become overcrowded. Many students expressed complaints concerning the extra bus passengers. The Whitehall-Coplay School District bused about 170 Central students. These pupils were picked up at regular stops, taken to the high school building, and then dispatched to Central. If those riding the buses had realized that the seats were supposed to hold three, pointed out director of transporation Thomas Sodl, there wouldn't have been complaints at all. There was no overcrowding and if there was we would have surely done something about it. The bulk of students covered under Act 372, however, were not from Central. Pupils attending 17 other schools received rides from the district. They included 13 Catholic schools, the Jewish Day School, and three private institutions. These schools included about 850 pupils living in Whitehall and Coplay. Of these, approximately 420 availed themselves of the transportation furnished by the school district. The others were within walking distance or had their own transportation. The district conveyed these children either by direct busing or contracting to provide rides. Three schools and two private firms supplied contracted transportation. Total cost of the contracts was $210 per day. An additional $40 per day was spent in extra bus mileage and depreciation, bringing the total to $250 per day. One argument for Act 372 was offered by Central senior Tony Andretta when he said Busing is not a privilege, but rather an equal right due to all taxpaying citizens of a particular community. The cost of public busing is far less than the cost of completely educating all non-public school students. 12 Three in a seaf is a light fit for anyone. The influx of Central students added 170 bodies to the limited seating space on buses. cr 372 required public school districts to provide transportation for nonpublic school students like Central's Harry Mellinger, right. He and junior Ron Peters board a homeward bound bus. 13 CRITICAL DECISIONS Students accept responsibility in planning their program of studies. In previous years there was never much of a decision to make in planning a schedule. A student merely decided which curriculum he wished to follow and took the courses which coincided with it. Most of the electives were the same every year and provided little if any variety to the students' school day. This year however, a big change was made as to which courses are required. The classification of ACP, CP, or general no longer existed. Students selected, with the advice of their guidance counselor, courses that filled their individual needs. :reshman and sophomore counselor Randy Rice believed the change to be advantageous. “The new schedules were much more flexible, he explained, “and all the decision making was where it should be, with the students. Mr. Rice added that scheduling was a little more difficult, but if the students showed responsibility in selecting courses, it was well worth it. In order to satisfy the ambitious students who, because of the lack of challenge in high school speculated the possibility of seeking college credits earlier, a new advanced placement program was initiated, junior Dave Stein was the only one who decided to forego his senior year and attend Moravian College as a freshman. He did this by fullfilling his requirements needed to graduate in his junior year. Many students recognized the educational value fo this system but didn't want to miss senior year social activities. Dave will return, however, to graduate with the class of 75. Another alternative for the student who wasn't quite ready to take on the full college load but still desired more advanced courses, was spending part of the school day at a local college to gain extra credits. College bound junior Dave Stein discusses his requirements (or an early entry into college, future at Moravian College with his guidance Dave was enrolled in two night courses in math counselor, Richard Berner. To complete his at Lehigh County Community College. 14 Scary best describes the first day of high school tor freshmen, but especially frightening is a mixed-up schedule. These ninth grade girls want theirs straightened out before the big day. Decisions that will affect his future are being made by freshman Mike Yost as he chooses his electives with the aid of guidance counselor Randy Rice. Freshmen, however, were restricted to basic requirements. 15 Innovations and improvements were characteristics of Whitehall's campus when students returned to school in the fall. A new building under construction on the corner grounds near MacArthur Road will house kindergarten through fourth grade next year. The Whitehall-Coplay Elementary School will finally bring together the young school children of the township and the borough under one roof. In the past they were scattered in small schools throughout the area. The middle school, located opposite the high school, accomplished this same goal for fifth through eighth graders four years ago. The advantages of having kindergarten through twelfth grade, all on the same campus are tremendous, stated principal Clayton Northup. Now even a first grader will be able to enjoy the planetarium and other educational facilities the high school offers without traveling any distance. Many other improvements of the high school and the campus also marked the year. Completion of additional bays in the bus garage made it possible for the entire fleet to be housed. For the benefit of the athletes a field house was erected at the north end of the football field. Whitehall also had its first night games under new stadium lights. In order to seat more people at outdoor sporting events, contracts were signed for extension of the stadium bleachers for next year's games. Over the summer a new roof was put on the gymnasium, and the classrooms in the C wing were painted. Construction began for new guidance offices and a library expansion in early May. Plans were made for the remodeling and enlargement of the main office suite. In addition to all the building and renovating, the wooded area surrounding the high school was surveyed to provide boundaries for an outdoor laboratory. Any class from the elementary, middle, or high school will be able to use this nature center in future years. Right now it's in the planning stages, explained Ted Hess, environmental studies teacher, but we hope to begin development of the area early next year. Mr. Hess toured other environmental labs, one of which was located at Parkland. 16 Busy electricians install fluorescent lights in the old wings of the high school. Right: The new elementary school is now under construction as workmen add the finishing touches. Much needed bays in the bus garage were completed for the start of the school year. Thomas Sod!, director of transportation, explained that now the garage has a total of 24 bays. Drivers also now enjoy the comfort and 17 atmosphere of new offices, and to the delight of the students with extracurricular activities, a new soda machine was added. Roads outside the garage are scheduled to be repaired. wereta- A kenbyStu- deni Council so 0 that its contri- £ butions would long A he rernerphered as be- W ing unique. Its first ef- 0 forts went towards involv- A ing freshmen and sophomores in the annual magazine campaign. 9 The incentive of a treasure chest 0 filled with many prizes which opened with eight of the keys given for sub- 9 scription sales made profits equal to last 9 year's when all four classes participated. Juniors and seniors then sold candy that put a surmountable sum in the assembly fund. In the early part of the year, the council was without an adviser. Principal Clayton Northup stepped in temporarily until Daniel Cruttenden filled the position. As promised, social activities ranked highest amongst the council's achievements. From the first welcome dance in September to the farewell brawl in May, rocking sounds filled the cafeteria many times courtesy of the Student Council. Concerned with the continuous rivalry between the two schools, the councils of Whitehall and Northampton joined forces and financed a balloon race that smoothed ruffled feathers before the football game October 6. As the Christmas season approached ' White Christmas, a semiformal dance sponsored by the council, drew the attendance of 100 couples. The success of the dance was believed to be attributed to the first time attraction of a queen. Santa Claus appeared on the scene and crowned Wanda Boyer as the first Snow Queen. Constantly trying to increase school spirit, We Are Zephyrs shirts and class year initialed all purpose mugs were sold by the members. Governmental procedures were investigated and a new constitution changing outdated rulings was written. The student body ratified the revisions so that they will be put into effect next year. A final project was the sponsoring of the Spring Festival in May. Joe Lemoine, president; Scott Reph, vice president; Vicky Ffunsicker, secretary; and Chuck Howells, treasurer; provided able leadership. I believe that the Student Council did a good job, commented Vicky, however, the student body cannot just sit back and expect the council to do all the work. It would be beneficial for everyone if more students got involved and showed a real desire to improve their school. ,Hey we don't mess around is being painted on the press box by spirited Student Council members. A Home of the Zephyrs sign also greeted basketball Ians as they entered the gym. 18 Officers Chuck Howells, Scott Reph, Vicky Hun-sicker, and Joe Lemoine find time to eat between projects in the Student Council office. The international favorite, a bottle of Coke, is being enjoyed by Swedish exchange student Lena Lofgren, right, and Karen Gross. Some of Lena's expenses were met with $20 monthly allowances from Student Council. In an assembly presenting the candidates for offices, retiring president Joe Lemoine reviews the year's accomplishments. Adviser Daniel Cruttenden and the remaining officers Scott Reph, Chuck Howells, and Vicky Hun- 19 sicker are on hand to hear the final remarks of appreciation to the student body. Juniors Mike Koren, Sharon Neupauer, Gayle Zimmerman, and Tracy Ernst were elected for next year. Sophomore Jeni Fetheroff leads the Held in the 100-yard butterfly. She holds the school record of 1:22.7 in the event and was the Zephyrettes’ third leading scorer with 101 Vj points. O 7 TEAMS START YEAR Possession of the ball is an elusive goal to Lou Bodish and a Northampton player. Eileen Shaughnessy waits for an outlet pass to hurry the ball up-field. Whitehall won the contest 1-0. With the change of girls swimming and boys golf to the fall, Whitehall's sports program got off to a pleasing start. During September, a 20-10 record was compiled by the seven fall sport teams. The golfers and girl swimmers started their seasons with victories, as the duffers dumped host Straudsburg 12-6 and the swimmers beat Blue Mountain 106-65. Home varsity football games were played Saturday nights under the new lights. The varsity kicked off its undefeated season by shutting out Saucon Valley, Notre Dame, and Palmerton. Visiting Nazareth crossed the Zephs' goal line, but the Zehyrs went on to a 20-6 victory. A triangular meet was part of the cross country schedule. The Zephyrs came out even in the contest by dropping Salisbury 16-43 and losing to host Easton 20-40. Al Weiner set course records in every meet as the runners easily won four of their first five meetings. A 13-meet Lehigh Valley League winning streak was halted when the host Lehighton Indians handed the Zehpyrs a 22-35 setback. Jayvee footballers topped Palmerton 22-6 with Tim Snyder's 45 and 38-yard touchdowns. Paul Ziegenfuss scored five touchdowns in the first three games for the frosh and broke up a scoreless deadlock with two tallies in a 12-0 defeat of Nazareth. Emmaus dominated girls field hockey and golf and also had victories over Whitehall in both as the golfers lost 14V4-3V4 and thestickgirls were defeated 3-0. The field hockey team's first and only first half win came over visiting Northampton 2-0 as Steph Terliski and Eileen Shaughnessy scored for the Zephyrettes. 20 Two bothersome Palmerton gridders force freshman quarterback Bob Cole to terminate the play sooner than he expected. The little Zephyrs won the game 31-0 and finished their year with a 6-3 mark. Strong follow throughs are indicative of sophomore Ed Omick's golf swing. Omick was the Zephyrs' second man and had the best average of 78.6 strokes per 18 holes during the season. Congratulations are offered by Ben Chrin (86) to Scott Reph (75) after another one of Reph's bone breaking tackles. Or is it Reph to Chrin after one of Chrin's long pass catches? ? lLCCTimS HDD OWtMITV In describing the month of September, one should select the words new beginnings for the start of the month signaled a new academic year. It was one which introduced new faces of teachers and students along with new courses. For the first time, psychology, sociology, astronomy, environmental science, and Writing I played an important role in the elec’ive course program. The astronomy course worked fine, said planetarium director Dale Ott, despite the fact that students could not delve too deeply into the mathematics involved due to lack of in-depth training. I would really like, related Robert Kratzer, Writing I teacher, to see my students achieve recognition through their writing. Some hockey team members started the year by journeying to Holland. Joceleyn Kaligis, coach, said of the experience, The education attained through the trip was unlimited. Hoping to motivate students with a new approach, some teachers varied techniques. Pete Haja, student teacher for social studies, introduced his classes to problems of democracy by having them role play. Walking imaginary tight ropes and swatting flies were a few of the roles portrayed. Students studying business received some practice by maintaining the book store. Charles Barhight, business teacher, felt there was no better way than first-hand experience to educate students. Blades command the clay as junior Denise Beidleman carefully etches her preconceived design. Mosaics, ceramics, paintings, and jewelry designing were also some of the other areas students dealt with. Industrious students pass the time in study hall by socializing with their friends while others study. 22 Besides fascinating Danny Moyer's inquisitive mind, the complex astronomical device projects realistic images on the planetarium walls. Christopher Kaligis and Louise Snyder take a few moments out of their busy schedule to feed the birds which gather at Dam Square. Members of the girls field hockey team journeyed to Holland to learn of varied hockey techniques and enjoy the sights. Profits are counted by Cheryl Abel and Donna Semmel. Business students were responsible for managing the school store. 23 Incoming freshmen discover high school is enjoyable and challenging. Transition from the middle school to senior high isn't always easy to make. Beginning a totally new experience, the class of 77 soon realized the greater flexibilities associated with high school life. However, academically they became aware that teachers expected more of them. Finding themselves to be the second largest of the four classes with 396 members, they elected officers and organized sooner than was anticipated. Decisions were mainly from a woman's point of view as Edie Flueso became the first female president of a class.

Although they noticed differences in high school life, the similarities helped them to adapt. also all female. Cindy Haberern and Jayne Miller represented the frosh at Homecoming while Cindy Schwenk was named Freshman Coronation Queen. Anxious to participate in more activities, they were soon disappointed since there were fewer clubs in which to become a member. Although this left only sports and musical activities, they were not without high achievers. Fred Kimock was a finalist in the Scholastic Art Awards Exhibition while Stacy Williams received a gold key. Both the football and basketball teams fared well with 6-3 and 11-6 records respectively. 25 Freshmen were anxious to distinguish themselves from any other class. They seemed to adapt quickly and before long were busy participating in events and activities. Organizing earlier than usual, officers Edie Flueso, president; Sue Wuchter, vice president; Lori Groller, secretary; and Jayne Augustine, treasurer; were elected to guide their class throughout the year. With the aid of adviser Michael Nestleroth, they sold owl key chains that had 10-0, the Zephyr football record, inscribed on the back.

Light and dark blue decorated the school cafeteria while couples danced to the music of Midnight Sun. Cindy Schwenk was crowned queen. Other candidates included Pam Boyer, Patricia Boyer, Cindy Haberern, Jayne Miller, Desi O'Donnell, Ann Reenock, and Donna Sinkovitz. For just beginning in high school, concluded Sue, I feel that we did many things. Selling key chains and having a hot dog stand at the Spring Festival were only a few accomplishments that I am proud of. Freshmen choose class officers early to get head start in activities. 27 Parkette discovers key of gymnastics to be many hours of practice. Life is like a piano — you get out of it, what you put into it. Practicing gymnastics for four hours a day and six days a week, Cindy Heidenwolf realized just that. Efficient in free exercise, beam bars, and vaulting, she became a member of the Parkettes Gymnastic Club. The area I enjoyed most was the free exercise, commented Cindy, which consisted of both tumbling and ballet.

Although Whitehall had no organized gymnastic team, Cindy represented it in district competition February 16. Receiving a third place award, she earned the right to continue in competition. However, on February 23 she failed to place in the regional meet. 29 While other eighth graders only anticipated the many high school activities, Cathy Harmonosky prepared for the competition she would face in her freshman year. Making her debut as the first freshman feature twirler, Cathy's routines consisted of twirling with fire, dags, hoop batons, and naturally the regular baton. The end result of being selected as a feature twirler on the majorette squad, Cathy recalled, made all the long practices a worthwhile task.

Courting the admiring glances of spectators is Cathy Harmonosky as she performs a halftime routine. She was Whitehall's first freshman feature twirler. 30 the lessons which she took in eighth grade made her aware of this ability which enabled her to become a member of the squad. At first, I was a bit nervous when I had to get out in front of a crowd,” confided Cathy, however, I soon learned to overcome it.'' Teaming up with junior Kathy Marushak, feature twirler, she performed at all cavalcades, football games, parades, and home basketball games to the tunes of Get It On, New World, and Swing March.

Below: Everyone's on hand for the inflation of the Zephyr entry in the race. Pre-race strategy is formed by Pilot William Meadows and loe Lemoine as principal Clayton Northup offers luck to daring Patti Creen. Wouldn't you like to ride in my beautiful balloon? junior Patti Green accepted the challenge posed in the popular 5th Dimension song when she took off October 8 to race against Dave Rogers, an eager Northampton aviator. Sponsored by the student councils of the two rival schools, the balloon race proved to be a very controversial topic. Whitehall council president Joe Lemoine initiated the idea of a balloon race to ease the tense opposition the schools have felt in past years. However, the controversy errupted because of the $700 each school had to raise to finance the event. Despite these anxieties a crowd of several hundred people gathered at the Whitehall practice field to cheer the balloonists on. Certified pilots were Walter F. Thompson and William S. Meadows of Balloon Ascensions, Ltd., of Statesville, North Carolina. Once aloft, the destination of the balloons was decided by the direction of the wind. Heading east, Patti's balloon ascended two minutes before Dave's left the ground, but it was distance, not speed, that designated the winner. Mr. Meadows and Patti descended after 45 minutes of flight in Bethlehem's Industrial Park. He thought there were no more fields after ours, Patti explained. But we must have landed too early because they went over us. It turned out there was one more field beyond ours. Mr. Thompson brought down Northampton's balloon in the next field and won the race by a few hundred yards. A balloon race is certainly not an everyday occurrence and some people's reactions really proved it. Many motorists honked their horns and even stopped their cars, while other people ran outside their homes and places of business to catch a glimpse of the strange sight. 35 GENIA WEIDER 1973 Homecoming Queen Splendor and excitement enchanced the football stadium October 6 for the 1973 Homecoming ceremony. The enchantment of beautiful floats and beaming smiles of queen candidates and attendants lent an almost fairytale-like atmosphere. But the Homecomingthat the public can't observe, the one that touches only the diligent students of Whitehall who construct the floats, plan the activities, and involve themselves so energetically behind the scenes, is the one that will live on forever. Preparations were initiated many weeks in advance for the year's halftime spectacular. School organizations were given the privilege of choosing a candidate for queen and in turn they provided a float for their hopeful. Even with the time allotted for erecting floats, groups still had their problems. Proving it works better under pressure, the junior class came up with the prize winning float after the original fell apart two days before the event. Judges Edward Galgon, Michael Galomb, and Dr. Robert Brennen thought the juniors' theme, The Great Pumpkin, suited the season and added color to the pageant. Making the 1973 festivity unique, it had the largest motorcade and was the first nighttime Homecoming in Whitehall's history. When the time finally arrived for the announcement of the new queen, an unbelievable hush descended upon the crowd of 10,000. During the short silence everyone felt the mounting excitement. Suddenly screams of joy from the crowd pierced the air as the new queen, Genia Weider, expressed her happiness through tears and later smiles. Surrounded by her predecessor Trudy Vymazal and her court Debbie Bernini, Melissa Chlebove, Denise Hessinger, Terry Kloiber, Vickie Pizzo, Sharon Rohrbach, Aleta Rucci, Gail Snyder, Jan Wise, and Kathy Wolf, Genia made all the work worthwhile. Juniors were represented by Karen Prazenka and Gayle Zimmerman, sophomores by Shelly Feldman and Sherri Hontz, and freshmen by Cindy Haberern and Jayne Miller. In addition to the halftime activities, The Owl sponsored the dance Homecoming eve. Commentating on the parade were editors Richard Steidleand Bonnie Charles. 36 Pep Club members Wendy Premecz and Aleifa Steckel pul the finishing touches on their colorful float. Although it fared well in the competition, the junior class grabbed first place.

Right: While under investigation in an alleged kickback scheme, former Vice President Agnew denies any wrongdoing at this sitting August 7. He later pleaded no contest to a charge of income tax evasion and resigned. SIGNIFICANT TIMES Variety is the very spice of life and there certainly was enough' of that in the news for the last third of 1973. Perhaps it was not single events but trends that will prove to be most important characteristics of this time period. A growing cynicism in government and distrust in public officials became more apparent due to the antics of even the highest officials. Former Vice President Spiro Agnew resigned after pleading no contest to a charge of income tax evasion. House Minority Leader Gerald Ford replaced him as the new veep. A federal court ruled that President Nixon must give up his taped conversations pertaining to the Watergate affair. This prompted months of stalling and attempted compromises. Finally, in what has come to be known as the Saturday Massacre, three top officials lost their jobs. After refusing President Nixon's request to fire special Watergate prosecutor Archibold Cox, Attorney General Elliot Richardson resigned on principles. Assistant Attorney General William Ruckelshaus was fired by the President after refusing this same order, and Cox was fired anyway. These events were only a few that heightened the cries of the critics of the President. If any part of Nixon's performance could be termed admirable, it would be foreign affairs. Here, he appointed Henry Kissinger Secretary of State. The super-diplomat received the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in truce-promoting in Vietnam but he was busy working on another problem. War had again broken out in the Middle East and Kissinger was instrumental in hammering out a temporary peace. On the international social scene, Princess Anne was married with all the pageantry befitting English royalty. In sports it was a time for repeaters. The Oakland A's captured the world series for the second year running when they beat the New York Mets in seven games. Elsewhere in baseball, Henry Aaron fell one short of the magic 714 home runs he needed to tie the immortal Babe Ruth. He broke the record in the next season. There was no next season for Willie Mays since he closed out a sparkling career with the Mets. Meanwhile the Miami Dolphins were driving towards a second Super Bowl in two years. This football season saw O. J. Simpson gain 2,003 yards to shatter the single season rushing record of Jim Brown. Not everything in the sports scene was exactly in the ordinary. A special tennis match between male chauvinist Bobby Riggs and woman-libber Billie Jean King ended with the best man losing. King won in straight sets to advance the cause of women's equal rights and dampen the spirits of old and young men alike all across the country. Skylab was circling the globe to set all space endurance records and collect valuable scientific data. It also got a look at the cosmic dud, Comet Kohoutek. The shining flying rock was to be even more of a spectacle than Halley's wonder. Unfortunately it turned out to be a huge disappointment. In the entertainment world, a devilish film was in the making. The Exorcist, that was predicted to be the box office success of all time, gained the curiosity of millions. However, stomachs were turned upside doWn at the sight of the posses-sed Regan, and once curiosity died, so did the ticket sales. On Tuesday nights at 8 p.m. America returned to the Happy Days of the fifties as the nostalgia rage invaded television.

October 27 marked Whitehall's fourth annual band cavalcade, Music in Motion. The MZB, along with Allen, last year's cavalcade winner, performed but did not compete in the program. Directed by Robert Musser III, it was presented by the Band Booster Club. Competing schools were Salisbury, Lenape, New Jersey, Northampton, Catasauqua, Easton, and Slatington. They were classified by the number of playing members. Marching Zephyrs placed third out of three in their particular category at Catasauqua. In the Atlantic Coast Championship at Villanova University in Philadelphia, they improved when they placed eighth in class B competition. Twenty-one bands participated in all three categories. However, disappointment descended upon members once again. Expecting to take part in Northampton's cavalcade on the night of a football game proved to be a dream. Because the band must be present at all home games, they couldn't participate. The school board did not even permit them to leave third quarter, related Mrs. Walter Groller, Band Club president, when they were finished with the half-time show. We realized that our first obligation is to the school, but some consideration should have been given to those wishing to enter the competition. More cooperation has been promised by the board for next year. Aside from playing at football games and cavalcades, they also marched in parades. It entertained spectators at the Allentown, Bethlehem, Fullerton, Coplay, and Slatington Halloween parades and later in the Fullerton Veteran's Day Parade. Besides assisting cheerleaders with chants at sporting events, they also led fans in such songs as March New World, Swing March, Get It On, The National Anthem, and the theme from The Godfather. 40 Pre-game shows allow Wayne Henderson to drum up support for both the MZB and the football team. The band gave a championship show before the Emmaus game to match the gridders' effort. Percussionists await the word to start from drum majorette Pat Korutz. The men on the drums are Mike Passaro, Wayne Henderson, and Steve Roman. Members also participated in parades. 41 GX l 4p ® LI V E ll , 'i COLOR GUARD — Front Row.

As a part of the MZB, they participated in ail activities with them. In competition, commented Kathy Marushak, feature twirler, we were rated with the band as a group. To raise money for new uniforms, the majorettes sponsored two bake sales. Mrs. Sandra Deckhut assisted the girls in planning routines while Mrs. Robert Musser instructed the color guard. The girls had the opportunity to participate in competition, said Mrs. Musser, but they didn't indicate enough interest to organize a winter guard.

Students and teachers began to get involved in their classes bringing highlights to the month. Dr. Howard Silverman, an Allentown physician, explained the misunderstood subject of hypnosis to psychology students. By mesmerizing a few students, he went on to say that although there are light and deep levels, hypnosis is actually only a relaxed state of being. Since people are open to suggestion at this point, he said, it is very easy to command them to perform. Senior Ben Chrin and junior Barbara Bryan were appointed to a Student Forum by principal Clayton Northup. John C. Pittenger, secretary of education, organized the committee to involve students in school planning. Edward J. Zamborsky, attorney, treated Richard Wilburn's selling and law classes to a lecture concerning the court system. The lecture was interesting, said senior Betty Lewis, because it explained what was covered in class. Open House October 23 marked the beginning of American Education Week. Disregarding last year's schedule, parents made appointments to examine a typical school day. Students enjoyed a day's vacation when teachers visited local merchants for Business-Education Day. For the first time in years, teachers chose the business they preferred to tour. 44 The wood pile is kept fully stocked by Rick Wimmer and William Roman. Carpenters made chess sefs, tables, and billy clubs. future plans for the language trip in April are discussed by Mrs. Mary lane Shumberger and Mrs. Carlton Schaadt at Open House.

Proposed by the faculty and ratified by the board of education, a new marking system went into effect on a one-year trial basis. The letter U, which symbolized no effort, became a part of the grading system. In addition, a student had to attain a 1.0 average and pass two of four quarters to be promoted.

Usually considered a powerhouse in football, Northampton was completely baffled by the Zephyrs, who trounced the Kids 42-0 October 6 at home. The victor was undecided after a scoreless quarter, but the Zephs recorded 14 points in each of the last three periods. Jeff Gerhard crossed the goal line four times as the winners rushed for 213 yards to a mere nine for the Kids, Al Weiner placed second in the second annual Tri-County meet and led the runners to fourth place October 6. Bo Brennen took the individual gold medal as he led Phillipsburg over 16 Lehigh Valley teams. Easton finished second and Lehighton was 10 points in front of Whitehall. The only other Zephyr in the top 30 was Bob Bechtold who was 14th. Despite a protest by the Whitehall coaches, girl swimmers lost to host Northampton 87-81. Denise Beidleman set a school diving record with 155.75 points in the loss. The junior varsity gridders won every Monday in October to boost their record to 7-0. The only team to score on them was visiting Stroudsburg in a 34-6 triumph October 22 with Tim Snyder scoring 22 points. Giving the freshmen their first loss of the season, Catasauqua upset Whitehall 20-0 with the aid of a blocked punt and two long runs. Champion Al Weiner breaks the tape at Southern Lehigh to wrap up his District XI cross country crown. Weiner won despite fracturing his foot in a fall 200 yards from the finish line. 49 CROSS COUNTRY — Front Row: David Clark, Mike Rieker, Alan Weiner, Brent Backus.

Guiding the runners for three years, coach grammes has compiled 20-8 league and 25-13 overall marks. I definitely feel that qualifying for states and taking second at districts were the high points of our season, said coach Grammes, however, injuries, a few bad breaks, and our performance at states were disappointing. Undefeated in 13 dual meets, junior Al Weiner became the first Lehigh Valley League runner to win the District XI meet, which was held at Southern Lehigh October 25. Other Zephyrs who placed in districts were seniors Bob Bechtold, 8th, and Brian Backus, 17th; and juniors John Clark, 19th; Gerald Wisser, 22nd; and Brent Backus, 33rd. The previous top performance by an LVL runner was a third place finish by the Zephyrs' John Bechtold in 1971. Taking second in the District XI Class A event, the Zephs qualified for the state meet at State College. Also making states in Class A was Easton, which won its fifth straight district title, finishing 10 points ahead of the Zephyrs. Despite a broken foot, Weiner took first among the Zephs and 97th of 180 runners in state competition. Senior Al Reed, last year's number two runner, tied for first in the two meets he ran. He was kept from further participation because of tendonitis. Lehighton, with a 10-0 league record, took the LVL crown from Whitehall, defending champ. At Whitehall, the Indians needed a strong kick by Steve Green to squeeze by the Zephyrs 27-28 October 16. Grabbing five of the top eight positions, visiting Emmaus defeated Whitehall 26-29 in their first meeting. Behind at the mile point, Whitehall came back with a 1-3-5-7-10 combination to trim the host Hornets 26-29, as the Zephs tied for second place with Emmaus in the league. 50 BAB BREAKS Inspirational pep talks are given before every meet to Coach Tom Grammes' dedicated runners.

Charlotte Heiney and Aleta Rucci will try to heed his advice but the Zephyrette offense could only tally six goals for the year. 52 SUFFERS GOAL SHORTAGE Lack of offensive attacks forced the girls field hockey team into a disappointing season with a mere six goals scored. The Zephyrettes lost six games by only one goal and registered a deceiving 2-10 record. They were tied for last with Lehighton in the Lehigh Valley League while Emmaus took the championship. Whitehall, the worst scoring team was fourth defensively, holding opponents to 17 goals. The team played better than the record indicates, said coach Joceleyn Kaligis. The close games we lost were due to lack of offensive threats, We outplayed many teams, stated senior Susie Serfass, but somehow they managed to score in the last few minutes. Our offense couldn't pull through for the goals we needed. Host Lehighton beat the Zephyrettes for the first time ever in the first half, but Whitehall's high scorer, Charlotte Heiney, who tallied only twice all year scored both goals in a 2-0 win over visiting Lehighton October 23. In the last game of the season, Whitehall lost 1-0 to Catasauqua October 25. It was the first time that the Zephyrettes ever lost the last game of the season. With the only first half win coming against Northampton, the Zephyrettes fell to the host Kidettes 1-0 in their second meeting October 8. We are going to lose quite a few seniors, commented Miss Judy Emery, assistant coach, but fortunately we also have some talented returnees to take their place. Whitehall should have a winning team in 1974. Quickly moving the ball upheld is Charlotte Heiney, the hockey team's top offensive threat. Whitehall won as she recorded two goals in a contest against Lehighton. Sue Ann Bohar checks Charlotte's form.

Many advantages were seen in having golf in the fall, said coach William Kern. There was improvement in every department. Record lows and averages were reached by individuals and teams. Improvements existed because courses were in better shape and so were the players. District and state championships were held during the spring. We were at a disadvantage by being out of practice and shape for districts in the spring, said senior Tim Solan. However, coach Kern explained that there is a good possibility of having districts and states in the fall within the next couple of years. The Zephyrs carried their lowest team average ever, finishing fourth in the league and also in the league tournament October 16. Emmaus won its third consecutive league championship and also took the league tourney as the Zephyrs' Ron Kroboth grabbed the second flight crown, shooting an 84. In the final match of the season, second place Palmerton defeated the duffers 10V4-7 Vi October 23 with the Blue Bombers' Mike Versuk firing a 71 to take medalist honors. Tops for the Zephyrs were sophomore Ed Omick with a 77 and Solan with a 78. Catasaqua's Chuck Albert gained the second hole-in-one in league history, but the visiting Zephs won every individual match and romped to a 16-2 victory October 22. Albert aced the 120-yard fifth hole at Willow Brook Golf Course. Jim Peet led Emmaus, the dominating force in the league, with a one under par 70, to a convincing 15Vi-2V2 win over the Zephs October 9. Northampton set league, school, and Willow Brook Course records, averaging 71.2 strokes per man as it beat the linksmen 15 V2-2V2 October 4. Omick's 78.6 average was the lowest on the team, while number one man Solan had a 79.2 per game.

Although students were not yet able to vote, interest in politics was aroused with the ar rival of November's traditional election day. A first was recorded in the township when two women were elected to the board of education. However, this was not the only occurrence which stirred students. Forming a patrol, senior boys found it necessary to take action against the recurrence of vandalism in the lavatories. While counting the days until the Thanksgiving festivities, some classes even enjoyed planned field trips to Moravian, the Lehigh River, and the Bucks County Playhouse. But as the end approached, students anticipated the Turkey Day game with Emmaus. To celebrate the capture of the league crown, a victory dance was scheduled. To further glorify the team's success, Thanksgiving vacation was extended, allowing students to have off from school November 27. 7 14 21 Girls' Swimming — Liberty — Pep Rally — Bonfire Varsity Football — Catasauqua Girls' Swimming — Districts • x %« ♦ VANAAbtSM A S M If there is such a thing as fall fever that turns students into inconsiderate vandals, it certainly took its toll at Whitehall in early November. It has been established from past occurrences that destruction of school property drains the community's money as well as custodian's time, and only a few disregarding this thought can do the damage of a multitude. Once again lavatories became the prime target of abuse. Especially evident in the boys' lavs were tiles ripped from the walls, drop ceilings removed, and a hole appeared in one of the walls. Aside from ashes and paper towels strewn on the floor, writing appeared on the walls of the girls' lavatories. Words were also carved into the wood. The tiles showed signs of burns from hot cigarettes and, depending on the lav, no privacy existed because doors had been taken off their hinges. And one might even wonder if pyromaniacs were running loose in the building because of an intentional fire that was set in one of the girls' lavatories. With damage being reported daily during this epidemic of destruction, custodians were kept on the constant move trying to cope with the problems. After waiting weeks for parts, commented Tony Fassman, head custodian, I finally replaced the sink in the 'E' wing boys' lav. The sink was there only three days when it was again dismantled. Not only did casualties increase in the lavatories, but calamity also reigned in other parts of the building. Auditorium seats were slashed, and writing on walls appeared even in the new wing. The unconventional use of gum still remained a problem. So, to catch what the Student Council referred to as immature culprits, a senior patrol consisting of over 30 senior boys was formed. The senior guys, remarked Joe Lemoine, council president, were tired of taking the blame for a few. Permission was granted for the boys to roam the corridors during their study halls while checking for potential vandals. The system proved effective as most of the severe vandalism subsided during the three weeks the patrol was needed. The group then disbanded only having to reorganize later in the year when another spurt of vandalism arose. Finally a strict hall pass rule was enforced by the teachers giving the students less time to carry out any illegal actions. But the costs for repair still had to be met. These pranksters, said Cecil Fritz, superintendent of maintenance, did not realize that their parents were paying for the damage in taxes. In a few years these vandals, too, will be paying taxes. 58 Some people don’t like the building’s heating as they vented their displeasure on a duct. Leonard Rucci points out the damage. Drop ceilings lived up to their name after vandals damaged the lavatories. Senior patrolman John Sauerzopf inspects panels that were tom from the ceiling. Above: Bob Brubacher wonders why vandals decided fo try to exit through the wall instead of the door. 59 Women in politics is certainly nothing new; nevertheless, Mrs. Elizabeth Buchmiller and Miss Mary Nederostek made history in November by becoming the first two females elected to the Whitehall-Coplay board of education. Also successful in his bid for a position was Owen Eberhart who gained the most votes. Mrs. Buchmiller and Miss Nederostek placed second and third respectively in the four-candidate contest. Indicating the constituents' desire for more young people as directors. Miss Nederostek was also one of four victorious candidates in the Lehigh Valley under 21. A 1972 Whitehall graduate, she promised before the election that she would look at things from a student's point of view. Since I am aware of the situations students are presently facing, she elaborated, I hope to enlighten others as to what goes on. Mr. Eberhart considered it a challenge to be a school board director and wished to perform a civic duty for the township. Mrs. Buchmiller felt that there is a need for more combined efforts between the governing bodies and the public. Being aware of the public's needs and desires, she explained while voicing her reasons for becoming a candidate, I want to make the communities of Whitehall and Coplay better places to live. Both Mrs. Buchmiller and Mr. Eberhart crossfiled, while Miss Nederostek ran on the Democratic ticket. The fourth candidate, Peter Lawall, a Republican and teacher at Easton High School, failed to gain a position. Vacating the three seats were retiring Adolph Yost and Carlton Berger, and John Lener, last year's president, who lost in the primaries. Louis Kloiber presided over the board meetings. 60 Recruiters for constable candidate left Jackson and school board nominee Miss Mary Nederostek take a warming coffee break.

FIELD WPS HID lEPDltm Although November was mostly devoted to regular classroom situations, it was brightened when several field trips were arranged. In order to check the pollution concentration, student environmentalists, headed by Ted Hess, science teacher, scanned the Lehigh River. This excursion, Mr. Hess remarked, showed the importance of ecology. Paul Hutnik's physics classes toured Moravian College for a Science Day. Created by the college students themselves, those involved saw projects dealing with various phases of chemistry, biology, and physics. Julie Yaple, senior, thought the trip was very worthwhile. English classes attended the play Death of a Salesman at the Bucks County Playhouse. Mrs. Edna Young and Mrs. Linda Toth arranged the outing to allow students to taste professional drama. A program was established to aid teachers and simultaneously promote business students' practice in typing and mimeographing. Student secretaries, as they were named, assisted teachers. Students received, Miss Lucretia Summers explained, the best training possible. German I scholars of Ronald Porotsky began following a video entitled Guten Tag on television every other week. 62 Soil is gathered by Mike Udicious and Brent Backus for analyzation in the environmental laboratory. g4 s Lab partners Debbie Blose and Denise Donchez try to determine how long it takes for a chemical reaction to occur.

Thanksgiving weekend charged up Zephyr spirit to its peak. In order to claim sole ownership of the Lehigh Valley League crown the Whitehall gridders had to sting the Hornets in the annual Turkey Day contest. So the cheerleaders, backed by the student body, gave energy plus to see the team through the job. Booster method number one was a pep rally that surprised the crowd with a winged Tom Bowman on a tricycle chased by Bob Brubacher manned with a hornet swatter. Although the skit is an annual occurrence, boys playing the parts and use of the bike added a new twist that stunned the audience. Earlier that day, students who saw their bonfire go up in smoke third period felt slight temporary despair. Rivals setting off the wood pile is almost as traditional as the bonfire itself. But Student Council members built another one to make sure morale wasn't lost. Apparently the team psychers knew their business because the Zephs took the championship and were hailed the next night at the cheerleaders' dance. An added feature to the dance, a crazy leg contest, gave senior fullback Keith Hontz a garter and a plaque for his shapely first place legs. Jeff Gerhard was runnerup. Bonfire flames spark spirit on the eve of the traditional Emmaus-Whitehall battle. Insert: Bonnie Charles cheers on.

Third Row: Laura Boyer. Numerous activities kept the varsity and junior varsity cheerleading squads extra busy this year. The cheerleaders, more involved and competitive than in any recent year, cheered in three competitions and put in many extra hours of hard work and practice. But the girls did not seem to mind as Mrs. Judy Harakal, coach, defined them as the most talented, creative, and enthusiastic group of school-spiriters Whitehall ever had. On March 23, the pepsters took first in the Lehigh Valley Area Cheerleading Competition, which was judged on degrees of difficulty, enthusiasm, projection, precision, originality, and crowd participation. In the Eastern Pennsylvania Cheerleading Invitational, Whitehall placed second March 9 against squads from the eastern part of the state. The jay vees competed for the first time ever and also took second place in their division. Earlier in the year, senior Bonnie Charles and the junior cheerleaders attended the All-Star Cheering Clinic and placed fourth in competition with squads from schools in Pennsylvania and surrounding states. College Boards kept the other senior girls from attending the clinic. Even before school started, unique ideas were gathered in a four-day Lehigh University-sponsored camp. Only the seniors participated. Honors were gained by Nancy Pivonka, who won a talent award and both Pivonka and Charles were finalists for Miss Nation-Wide Cheerleader. During the Thanksgiving Holidays, the boosters were overactive with painting signs, planning a pep rally, sponsoring the Thanksgiving Dance, and decorating the locker rooms. Jan Wise was sponsored for Homecoming with the float theme of You just can't stop that Zephyr machine. Co-captain Genia Weider was named by Mrs. Harakal to participate in the LARC All-Star Game in July. 67 © SWIMMERS CAPTURE Girl swimmers registered their best season ever, enjoying a fine year with a 5-6-1 record. Despite a weak 2-6-1 East Penn League mark, the mermaids won all three non-league meets as they adjusted to having the sport in the fall. In switching from the spring to the fall, said Miss Judy Piper, head coach, the girls were capable of starting practice already in shape from working out in playground pools over the summer. The team's success easily overshadowed the three previous seasons which produced only three wins. Sophomore Diane MacLaughlin took fourth in the 100-yard backstroke at the District XI meet November 17. With a school record time of 1:14, MacLaughlin went on to the state meet as a replacement. States were held during the winter with the boys.

Seven of 10 team marks fell while four new events were introduced. Yardage and scoring were set identical to the boys. In their final dual meet, the Zephyrettes were defeated by host Liberty 93-78 November 7. Visiting Parkland fell to the swimmers 101-71 November 1 as the winners took both relays and six of the nine individual firsts. The team's high scorer, Jan Ferchie, and Hunsberger were triple winners. Mrs. Judy Harakal was the assistant coach. Three of the top four scorers on the team were underclassmen. Hunsberger finished second in scoring with 102 points, just one half point in front of sophomore Fetherolf, while MacLaughlin tallied 91 Vi. The girls worked hard to reach their goals, concluded Miss Piper. Patiently waiting to swim the third leg of fbe 400-yard freestyle relay against Easton is Lynn Elchook.

TIME TO HELP FRESHMEN Experience gained, instead of just a successful record, was the main concern of first-year freshman football coach Randy Rice. After losing only once in their first six games, the freshman gridders fell to Stroudsburg and Emmaus and finished with 4-3 league and 6-3 overall slates. By edging Northampton 8-6 the frosh forced a tie for the league crown between the Konkrete Kids and Emmaus. Catasauqua was the only team to defeat Emmaus, but the Rough Riders lost to Northampton and Stroudsburg. It was a low scoring season for the freshmen, but the team keyed on strong defense and was only 14 points away from an 8-1 season, which was posted last year. The defense recorded shutouts against Nazareth, Palmerton, and Lehighton. The Zephyrs visited Emmuas and lost a close game 6-0 November 8. Emmaus scored early, said coach Rice, and from then on it was a defensive battle. Last year the frosh beat the Green Hornets 14-6 to take the league crown. The gridders gained their final victory November 1 as they squeezed by host Slatington 12-6. Ed Podorsky was credited with both six-pointers with the final one coming in the last two minutes of play. Getting touchdowns in five different games, Paul Ziegenfuss was the team's leader in rushing and scoring. According to coach Rice he didn't have great size, but his speed and quickness were his strengths. I enjoyed my first season and I'm really looking forward to next year, said Ziegenfuss. Freshman football was what I expected it would be. I now know what to expect in the future.

He was the junior varsity's signal caller and also saw limited varsity action in preparation for next year. With a chance to go undefeated, the jay vee footballers maintained a 7-0 record before facing Emmaus and Catasauqua. But they could not win either game and finished with 5-1-1 league and 7-1-1 overall marks. Coached by John Churetta and Robert Rothenberger the little Zephyers were hoping to improve on their 8-1 freshman year record by going undefeated. With both games being played on the newly lit Whitehall field, the little Zephs went into the Emmaus game scored upon only twice while tallying 155 points on offense. The Zephyrs repeated on last year's tie for second place in league competition and improved on their 4-4-1 record. In the last game of the season, Catasauqua's offense out dueled the Zephs as the Rough Riders won 37-22 November 12. It was the Zephs' only loss and gave the Roughies the league crown. The collapse of the defense, said coach Churetta, was the reason we lost. Whitehall led 22-21 at the half, but fell victim to the Roughies' passing attack. The Zephyrs' scoring came on runs of one and 35 yards by Tim Snyder and Brad Rice's 75-yard punt return. To gain a 12-12 tie with the Emmaus Green Hornets the jay vees were saved by Snyder's fourth quarter runs of 21 and 50 yards November 5. The Hornets drove to the Zephyrs' two-yard line but fumbled and Glenn Centolanza recovered to preserve the tie. Whitehall had a chance to win, but a six-pointer was called back on a penalty. A few sophomores saw action on the varsity squad and the class of '76 should carry some weight on next year's big team.

Upper Right. Bob Temosky (24) is stunned by the aggressive Zephyr defensive unit. EMM MS Whitehall is number one, not only in the LVL but the entire valley. These were the words of Emmaus' coach George Fritz Halfacre. Halfacre's Hornets played against the best in the area and he praised the Zephs as the top team in the eastern part of the state after Andy Melosky's team whipped the Green Hornets 36-12 Thanksgiving Day. It was their first Turkey Game win since 1966. Before a sellout crowd of more than 12,000 at Emmaus, the Zephs scored quickly as senior quarterback Hugh Millen clicked on two touchdown passes of 16 and 59 yards to sophomore brother Matt Millen and senior Ben Chrin. The Hornets cut the lead with Bob Ternosky plunging over from the one. The Maroon and Gold came back and tallied twice for a comfortable 28-12 first half lead. Chrin, the Zephyrs' outstanding offensive player, alertly revised on a 67-yard punt return. The second half turned into a ball control game with the stingy Zephyr defense not giving in. Senior fullback Keith Hontz plowed in from the three to finish the scoring, Senior defensive tackle Al Himmelwright was named the game's top Zephyr defender, while Ternosky and Steve Ramer received the offensive and defensive awards for Emmaus. To celebrate the victory, November 27 was declared Pride in Whitehall Day' as all Whitehall-Coplay schools were closed. 74 STUFFED ON TURKEY 04 Y Quickly moving in to complete a tackle ot ballcarrier fohn Berger is Ben Chrin as Scott Wasley makes initial contact.

GRID TEAM BEATS ALL Undefeated for the first time ever, the varsity football team earned a rating as one of the top teams in Pennsylvania. Melosky's Monsters, a designation of the Zephyrs' size and desire to win, went 10-0 and captured their first Lehigh Valley League crown since 1966. Coach Andy Melosky's team outscored opponents 341-38, gave up a mere six touchdowns while scoring 50, and had seven shutouts. Nearly 750 followers treated the Zephs in a big way with a banquet at Northampton Community Center February 20. The players received watches, jackets, game jerseys, and picture plaques. With a record-setting 19 touchdowns. Zephyr backfield ace Jeff Gerhard tied for the area's top scorer with 121 points. Honorable mentions in state ratings went to seniors Gerhard, John Mondschein, and John Sauerzopf. Whitehall grabbed 11 of 24 positions on the All-LVL football team. Zehpyrs making both first teams were Ben Chrin and Carl Haberstroh. Also on the offensive team were Mondschein, Hugh Millen, and Gerhard, while Matt Millen, Al Himmelwright, Len Rucci, and Andy Brusko earned defensive honors. Hugh Millen, who threw for 2,069 yards, a 16.2 average passing gain, and 23 touchdowns was named Whitehall's scholar athlete. Coach Melosky cited the Catasauqua game as showing that the team was one of character. The Zephyrs kept their streak alive by coming from a 20-0 halftime deficit to a 28-20 victory November 10. After the Rough Riders became the first LVL team to score on the Zephyrs, Chrin turned the game around with a 53-yard fake punt and run. The win gave the Zephs at least a tie for the LVL crown and a chance to go undefeated. n r Quarterback Hugh Millen rolls out, looking for a favorite receiver, while a persistent Palmerton defender pursues.

The service featured excerpts from Handel's Messiah in addition to the traditional Christmas carols. To further enhance the mood of the season, Student Council sponsored its annual semiformal Christmas dance. Because no Winter Carnival was anticipated, officers felt that the affair should be represented by a queen. Thus, Santa Claus made a special appearance, crowning Wanda Boyer as the first Snow Queen. Realizing that students can become restless, some teachers scheduled field trips. To better understand the mental states of people, psychology students visited the state hospital. Emmaus High School was thesetting for a mock United Nations meeting. Twenty-five Whitehall students, representing six nations, attended. — JV Basketball — Bethlehem Catholic — Varsity Basketball — Bethlehem Catholic — Athletic Council Meeting Basketball — i' basket ball Wrestling Tournament — Stroudsburg 'd-Mefits Junior Class Play JV Basketball — Wilson Boro Varsity Basketball — Wilson Boro — Boys Swimming — Freedom Southern — Wrestling — Kutztown JV Basketb Parkland — Wrestling — Brandywine — Boys Swimming William Allen Parkland — Assembly — Christmas Program — JV Basketball — Southern Lehigh — Varsity Basketball — Southern Lehigh 22- — Boys Swimming — Pottsville Christmas Dance Club participation debuted on a voluntary basis making the compulsory, during school hours set-up a thing of the past. The new system was initiated in order to put an end to the countless complaints voiced by uninterested students. However, the manner in which the program was put into effect was little less than desirable. A poll conducted by the administration before the start of the school year made it impossible for the students' preferences to be correlated with the teachers' interests. Both parties completed their respective queries without prior knowledge of the results of either survey. Consequently, groups for horseback riding, roller skating, bowling, and many others suggested by enthusiastic students were not even part of the sponsoring teachers' proposed list. At any rate, the useless clubs of last year were axed, and only the active organizations remained. But it's rather sad to note that only eight clubs out of the former 49 had enough caliber to stay alive. If more clubs were proposed than 10, student apathy could again be the blame for the lack of interest. But the facts show that only two clubs, Office Machines and Chess, were rejected by the student body. Clubs that did have membership were Debate, Drama, Leo, Pep, Puff 'n' Pencil, Ski, Varsity W, and Weight Training. However, Pep and Leo clubs never met during school hours even before the new system was put into effect, and Ski Club was originally sponsored by the township. Debate was classified as a club although it really was part of the academic program. And, Weight Training was actually part of the athletic program. So in reality, only five clubs that originally met on school time were carried over from last year. Supposedly, the best reason for not having activities during school hours was the restrictions placed upon groups. It was thought that more worthwhile organizations could de-velop outside the four walls of a classroom. Apparently, this idea couldn't hold water since not one of the eight clubs was new. Speculation might cause one to conclude that it was the fault of the teachers for not having enough creativity or concern to develop after school hour clubs. But after question- ing faculty members who indicated in the poll they would be a sponsor, why they did not organize their proposed groups, they described the guidelines for the new system as being too rigid. An issue especially disputed was the stipends for sponsors according to an evaluation process by administration personnel. Many teachers decided it wasn't worth waiting until the end of the year for a payment regulated to the quality of services rendered. Obviously, from the results of how many sponsors were paid, something went wrong. Only four clubs' advisers were rewarded salaries for meeting the requirements set down by the board of education. Apparently, the other four organizations met too infrequently to be considered active. Already it has been disclosed that settlements concerning sponsors' salaries will be a vital issue when the teachers' two-year contracts are reviewed. With sports dominating the scene and the list of clubs near nil, the non-athletic student could find very few extra-curricular activities to take part in. In order for the new system to be successful in the future, both the pros and cons must be examined. 80 m v tmcsmvctf V'' --- —— w lla Children being adaptable as well as adoptable, has become the Richard D. Becker family's philosophy ever since its circle has been increased with the addition of three dif-ficult-to-place girls — two biracial and one full black. Including the new arrivals, there are eight Becker children, aged 4 to 14. They have a true brother and sister relationship despite their varied parentage. We have our ups and downs just as any family does, admitted mother Pat. But generally they are great — and do behave whenever they go out. Mr. and Mrs. Becker have acquired their troop of youngsters through marriage and adoption. Mrs. Becker, a director with the Great Valley Girl Scout Council, was a widowed moth- er of a baby girl, Kathy, when she met her future husband at a Solo Parents event. Mr. Becker, a self-employed carpenter, was divorced and father of Jeff, a freshman at Whitehall, Keith, and Karin. After two years of marriage, while awaiting the birth of their son Bobby, the Beckers decided to share their home with a bereft child. They adopted Jessica when she was 20 months old with the help of the Council on Adoptable Children for Greater Philadelphia. The arrival of a black child in a white Fullerton home did not stand hair on end. Jessica's new brothers and sisters welcomed her wholeheartedly. Although apprehension was expressed by a few friends and older relatives, it soon dissolved. My parents were great, Mrs. Becker recalled. My husband's parents, though reserved at first, came to love her. We have had very little flack. Some of our friends are afraid for us, but mainly for financial reasons. Most of the neighbors are wonderful. When the Beckers went to Philadelphia for Jessica's official adoption, they met Michelle, also black and four years old. It wasn't long before she, too, joined the household. Although 11 years old, biracial and raised by another family most of her life, Carol adjusted easily to being the newest member of the Becker clan. She was discovered by her sisters and brothers in a photograph album compiled by the Council of Adoptive Parents and they insisted she join them. The Beckers are a family with love and understanding, and these feelings are their answer to prejudice. 82 Only one of the family's affectionate moments, Richard Becker holds sleepy daughter Jessica. Below: What's cookin' Mom?” asks Michelle as Jeff looks up tips for Mrs. Pat Becker who must cook in quantity. Far Left: The Becker children enjoy a whirl on the backyard merry-go-round.

Everyone is present for the moment of truth, as Michelle Fabik, hoping to discover who really is Earnest, examines-the handbag she left in the railway station. Charlie Kulp, Dave Stein, Gayle Zimmerman, and Mindy Minnich are all curious to see what she will find. 84 On one knee, Dave Stem proposes to Gayle Zimmerman, tbovr. Our Christian names, is that all? Charlie Kulp and Dave want to know it that's the only reason Gayle and LuAnn Trinkle won’t marry them. Romatic drama and haphazard comedy mixed well to make the junior class play, The Importance of Being Earnest, a success. Presented December 7 the play, set in the Victorian period, evolved around the lives of two young men seeking love and marriage. Algernon Moncrieff, portrayed by Dave Stein, was very much a part of the city's social life. He invented an invalid friend, Bunbury, in order to occasionally escape from his hum-drum routine. On the other hand, country dwelling Jack Worthring, alias Charlie Kulp, fabricated a wicked city brother named Ernest so that he could sometimes sneak into the city. Confusion reigned after Gwendolyn Fairfax, played by LuAnn Trinkle, and Cecily Cardew, played by Gayle Zimmerman, appeared on the scene. They both believed they had fallen in love with the same man, but of course everything worked out in the end. I enjoyed playing a snob, commended LuAnn, but 1 think the play would have been even more successful if it hadn't been on the night of a basketball game. The production was given later than usual and was complicated by the Wilson Boro game. Faculty director Mrs. Kathy Roberts said she chose the play because of the development of the characters. Other cast members were Paul Csencsits, Michelle Fabik, Jan Maitski, Mindy Minnich, and Gary Reinert. Miss Louise Daws and Miss Virginia Himler assisted Mrs. Roberts, while Barbara Bryan assumed the job of student director 8b Hey lady I think you forgot something! cries cashier Dave Steckel at a Weis Market counter. Many jobs could be found at the Mall. Money has been considered the root of all evil, but for many Whitehall students a little extra spending loot was necessary during price-climbing days. Part time employment was not too hard to come by in industry-booming Whitehall with many opportunities located right on MacArthur Road. MacDonald's was convenient to reach from my home, explained senior Cenia Weider, who worked there in order to gain college funds. MacDonald's, Burger King, Arby's, and Cino's were, as usual, the favorite job centers. However, sales clerk employment and stock boy openings could also be found on the Golden Strip. The Whitehall Mall offered a variety of work. I met many interesting people working at Zollinger-Harned, commented junior Gina Ginter, however, I wish I would receive better wages. Of course, just about everyone agreed with the second part of Gina's statement, but a new Pennsylvania state minimum wage law raised the bottom salary to $2 an hour. Naturally this change was welcomed. 86 Cashier Cail Miller is almost hidden behind a film display in the record department of Woolworth's.

Teachers, in an attempt to keep students' interests alive before the Christmas vacation, planned many interesting activities. Twenty-five students accompanied Ray Erb, sociology and contemporary affairs teacher, on a visit to Emmaus High School for a mock United Nations program. Using simulation as a teaching tool, these students comprised six nations and spent the day discussing their country's problems. Students from other area high schools were present and in all, 44 countries were represented. Students of German III taught by Mrs. Mary Jane Shumberger heard a church service in German at Saint John's in Northampton. These people were also treated to a full-course German meal prepared by the students themselves. The food was delicious, senior Bonnie Schrampf said, despite the fact that I never tasted the majority of the dishes. Health classes of Andrew Melosky and Mrs. Judith Harakal heard a series of speakers. Mrs. Roger La Warre, Mrs. Priscilla Brakus, and James Bartholomew spoke on planned parenthood, abortion, and natural childbirth. Most agreed that the speakers were very informative. A requirement of the home economics course, but available to anyone interested, a Betty Crocker Homemaker Award Test was given. Highest scorer, Patricia Nemetz, senior, said she was very happy to learn of the award. Writing I classes of Robert Kratzer interviewed Dave Schneck, a 1967 Whitehall graduate and an outfielder for the Mets, for the contents of a theme assignment. 88 Service with a smile is how Cindy Lakovits greets every customer at Ponderosa. Students enrolled in the COOL program were able to work halt of the day. December showers bring gifts as Ray Erb's eighth period sociology class anticipates his new baby. New methods of teaching seeping into the educational system benefit students. Michelle Penecale, Marybeth Pastre, and Donna Groller practice shorthand from tape-recorded dictations. In their courses at Vo-Tech Danny Loikits, Donald Masonheimer, and Keith Charles use their skills in ad- justing a refrigeration and air conditioning system. They spent half of each day at Whitehall. 90 HUD FINANCES COURSE While most students reported to assigned classrooms each day, some attended school at other buildings. Twelve students entered a House Renovation Program directed by Richard Becker, in coordination with the Lehigh County Area Vocational-Technical School. These chosen few renovated the Allentown Moser Elementary School. Funded through the federal and local program of Housing and Urban Development, the results yielded housing for senior citizens. In another area of the Vo-Tech program, commercial art students visited Hess's fashion department to observe designers p'an and draw advertising layouts. louring Allison Fashions and Lehigh Litho was also a part of their agenda.

Michelle Johns and Karen McGee watch her 91 I decided we could do the 'Messiah' this year, said choir director Walter Dworakivsky, because we had the capable soloists required. Excerpts from Handel's famous work were performed by the concert choir December 16 for the Candlelight Service. Because the difficulty of these selections demand strong sold voices, the past few years they had been replaced by a simpler modern musical version of the Christmas story. Talented soloists who enabled Mr. Dworakivsky to choose the Messiah this year were Susan Moyer, soprano; Kay Sterner; alto; Mark Fried, tenor; and Barry Bechtold, bass. Accompanying the group on the organ and piano was junior Russell Paterson. A Christmas concert was given December 11 at Merchants National Bank of Allentown. The traditional holiday assembly, however, was cancelled due to occurrences last year by a few unappreciative students who acted immature during the program. Rather than running the risk of having another free-for-all, explained junior Mindy Minnich, we decided to cancel the assembly for the student body. With strong voice and emotion, senior Barry Bechtold sings Thus Saith the Lord.” Above: Accompanied by pianist and organist Russell Paterson, the choir follows the direction of Walter Dworakivsky. 92 Religious aspects of the Christmas season are expressed in the concert choir's Candlelight Service.

The varsity basketballers were mediocre with a 5-3 pre-league performance. In their opener, the host Zephyrs were roughed up by a talented William Allen five 73-50. Allen's lead was only 30-26 at halftime, but the Zephyrs shot a poor 3 for 14 in the third quarter and fell behind. The visiting cagers beat Wilson Boro 36-24 December 7. Wilson, coached by Tom Szabo, last year's Zephyr jay vee coach, stalled the ball and held the Zephs to a mere 12 points in the first half, but his team did not tally until the third quarter. Swimmers and wrestlers each had one victory and two defeats. The visiting swimmers dumped Pottsville 151-138 by taking first in the last event for their first of only two wins all season. Lee Hunter broke his own school record in the 500 freestyle and the 200 medley relay team of Rick Bock, Andy Bausch, Charles Noble, and John Elnitsky set a new school standard with a time of 1:56.2. In wrestling, the Zephyrs lost to Southern Lehigh in the opener 44-15 and to Brandywine 30-27. Their only win all season came against a weak Kutztown team 29-16 as the grapplers took nine of the 12 bouts. At Stroudsburg December 28-29, in the first annual LVIAA Holiday Tournament, Whitehall placed Glenn Fritts and Curt Shafer in the finals. After a 50-36 opening loss to Allen, the jay vee B-ballers won seven straight while the frosh were victorious in both starts.

To help matters, it was instituted that the nation return to Daylight Saving Time. This not only posed problems, but forced Whitehall, along with others, to a half-hour delay in the school day. However, the daily routinecontinued and activities were as abundant as always. Although it was rumored that activity buses to games would be limited, they ran as usual. Time in a Bottle was chosen as the theme of the Junior Prom January 17. The evening was climaxed with the crowning of Eileen Shaughnessy as queen. No sooner were students back to school, when an unexpected snow fall let them enjoy three days vacation.

The winter of 1973-74 changed that notion drastically, but temporarily. Prior to then, energy supply had been keeping one step ahead of the voracious power demands of the American public. But in October, the Arab petroleum nations began an oil embargo in an attempt to limit aid to Israel. Eleven per cent of the oil consumed in the United States was imported from these countries. The American people rose to conserve and try to stretch existing stores. Individual efforts were helped by Congress. Speed limits on the nation's highways were reduced to 55 miles per hour. Thermostats in homes and public places were set down to 68 degrees. Year-round Daylight Saving Time was enacted to put more public activity into daylight hours and reduce both heating and lighting needs. However, the move forced children to travel to school in darkness during the first weeks of the new time. Accommodating for this was a move in the school day to one half hour later. Gasoline shortages made it fairly difficult for the motorist to fill his tank easily. Block-long line in front of the pumps became common. Gas cans, gas tank locks, and siphoning hoses were snatched off the shelves as fast as they could be put there. A new -ederal Energy Office was created and William Simon, former Deputy Secretary of Treasury, was put in charge. The office allocated supplies to areas most in need and provided a central location from which the battle against the crisis could be fought. They even went so far as to print rationing coupons that went unneeded. However, a system of voluntary rationing was put into effect in Pennsylvania. Drivers could buy gas on odd or even days, depending at first on the last digit of the license plate, then on the inspection sticker number. Anyone could buy on Saturdays and Sunday sales were voluntarily halted by request from President Nixon. Some doubted the authenticity of the crisis. Indeed, oil company profits were up about 40 per cent in 1973 from 1972 levels. But then in March, the Arab countries lifted the embargo and sent oil flowing back into the United States. The availability of petroleum subsided the crisis situation so the American public returned to their wasteful consumptive ways. Prophets warned that the winter was a harbinger of things to come and that ample oil supplies would soon be gone for good. Only a deaf ear was raised and despite the graphic warning, most reverted to an attitude of limitless energy. Line-up at the gas station was the name of the game when odd-even days went into effect.

Upper Right: Custodian Tony Fass-man lowers a thermostat to68°F. 99 Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow , is how the familiar song goes, but it was also the sentiment of Whitehall students during the winter months. And, in answer to their plea, three days of school were cancelled because of the fleecy, white, powdery flakes. To one sophomore, Lena Lofgren, this seemed a strange occurrence. An exchange student from Sweden, Lena said, fust an inch of snow and school is cancelled. In Sweden we have school no matter how much it snows. Needless to say, Lena wasn't upset by this United States' custom and enjoyed the days off like everyone else did. What activities did students indulge in while their cars had to remain in the garage? Well, if not on wheels, sledding became the replacement for exciting travel. As usual, Egypt's famed Suicide Hill was the favorite spot for most Whitehall students. Senior Annette Derk its said she really loves to go tobogganing down Suicide, but admits she is not as brave as her 12-year-old brother. He skis right down between those trees on the hill! But then he's a little crazy, she added. Unfortunately, on some occasions it began snowing after school was in session. Although the falling snow provided window watchers with a temporary escape from a boring class, those who brought their cars were worrying about driving home and, most of all, how to scrape their windows clean. The chaos in the parking lot after eighth period was almost unreal.

She was followed by seniors Karen Miller and Joan Coringrato placing third in local and winning an honorable mention respectively. In action in the classroom, environmental students of Peter Rim, tested the severity of tars and nicotine of various cigarettes by the use of smoking machines which record the amount of pollutants present. Music classes of Walter Dworakivsky heard selections by such great musicians and composers as Bach, Handel, and Tchaikovsky after studying their biographies. Michael Nestleroth's World Culture classes presented oral reports in correlation with the students' study of European countries. A program of work experience began with the start of third quarter. Designed for the business students, only a half day of school was required for those individuals who spent the remainder of the day as a secretary.

Time in a Bottle, set in the candle-lit atmosphere of the George Washington Motor Lodge ballroom, turned a chilly January 19 evening into a warm memory for sentimental couples. One minor problem arose in planning for the affair when it was undecided whether semiformal attire would be acceptable. Junior class adviser John Vitishinsky was fearful that senior escorts of junior girls might be unhappy putting out money for two proms. Although no where did it state that the dance had to be formal, the executive committee voted to remain traditional with formal dress required. Our decision certainly did not hurt our turnout, recalled dance committee chairman Pam Schwenk. In fact, we even had to set up additional tables during the prom because more people attended than we anticipated. By 10 p.m. the socializers grew restless to hear their new queen named. The procession of the candidates seemed endless in the tension of the waiting. Finally, the excitement of the announcement sparkled in the eyes of Eileen Shaughnessy, who overcome by surprise and joy was crowned by Bonnie Charles, last year's winner. Her court included Pam, Tracy Ernst, Kathy Marushak, Karen Prazenka, Sharon Snyder, Diane Stockmal, and Gayle Zimmerman. junior promgoers enjoy a few moments of socializing.

But the Class of 75 did things in a big manner. Giving the year a special effect was the Junior Prom January 19. Time in a Bottle was chosen as the theme and Eileen Shaughnessy was crowned queen. On May 8 she was again singled out, but this time for girls basketball. Eileen was the only underclassman to receive a Zephyr Award. Although few juniors were on the starting lineup for football, Dave Boandl, Jim Greene, Mike Koren, and Tom Leaswitch contributed much to the championship basketball team.

However, there wasn't any time for experimentation once he started working as a member of the staff. Prior to this, many of his pictures were of landscapes. I like working for the yearbook, explained Tim, because it gives me a chance to take pictures of people. Because of Tim wandering the halls, said Joannie Coringrato, editor, we were able to capture people in unforgettable moments.

Whitehall downed the Bulldogs 55-44 fo win the first half league crown with a 7-0 mark. Stingy defense and a deliberate attack earned the varsity basketball team a perfect 7-0 first-half league mark and the Lehigh Valley League initial-half crown for the first time since 1967. Due to the 0-11 combined record of the swimmers and wrestlers, a relatively poor 18-22 slate was posted in January. Northampton fell to the varsity hoopsters in the league opener 58-44. The Zephyrs forced the defending champions into 26 turnovers and scored the final 10 points of the game. Whitehall's balance was obvious as four Zephyrs were in double figures. Hitting on only 16 of 54 shots from the floor, the visiting Zephyrs had to depend on their foul shooting and defense to pull out a 44-40 win over Palmerton January 18. In the final minute of play, the winners sank four free throws to break a 40-40 tie. Dave Boandl blazed the way with 28 points. The Zephyrs ended the half with a come-from-behind victory over visiting Slatington 55-44. Outscored 16-8 in the first quarter, the Zephs came back as Boandl, Randy Kemmerer, and Jim Greene led the attack with 18,12, and 11 points. After a 29-24 opening loss to host Northampton, the girls basketball team upset Emmaus, defending league champ, by giving the visitors their only first-half defeat 44-31.

The Zephyrs had 263 fouls called against them while their opponents had 419 infractions against them. 115 — Washington's Birthday It seemed as though February had barely started when it was brought to a halt by truckers who went out on strike. However, this was not about to stop the Zephyr five as they accomplished a feat which fans will never forget. Two down, one more to go, was the cry heard when cagers earned the Lehigh Valley League championship February 25. Not only did the outcome of this game put the crown at stake, but mittmen could foresee added pressures descending upon them when they would be expected to contribute their share to win the triple crown. Students were given a break from the academic routine when Whitehall's Debate Society was host to students from area high schools who participated in debating the use of public funding in election campaigns.

The world wide oil situation forced the higher prices and diesel fuel rose from September levels of 27 cents per gallon to 45 cents per gallon. The 18-cent jump cut into profit margins. A strike of independent truckers was called and those that continued to run were subjected to slashed tires, gunshot, or having their rigs overturned. Some simply stopped their trucks on main highways to halt traffic. Others picketed fuel stations. A driver, Ronald Hengst, was killed on Route 22 near Allentown when a rock was dropped through his windshield. The National Guard was called out in eight states to preserve the peace and protect the non-strikers. Federal meetings solved the problem when they allowed the truckers to pass the fuel cost increase along to consumers in the form of higher prices for truck shipped goods. Governor Milton Shapp was instrumental in gaining the accord in his role of mediator. The strike proved how a small group of dissidents could force the general public to suffer when over 100,000 people were thrown out of work and scarcities of shipped goods became more common. nticRichfieli Z T ' 'r W' Signs requesting other truck drivers to go on strike are carried by rig operators who are dissatisfied with contract conditions.

The terror ended late in the month. £ , CL L B NUMBEHS Since the club system was set up on a voluntary basis, fewer clubs organized than was originally anticipated. Leaving room for new ideas, the program allowed members to meet any time before or after school. This also left more time to take field trips. However, by February only seven clubs and three organizations comprised the list. But the effectiveness of the system didn't necessarily depend on the quantity but the quality. Learning to act on stage, to put on and write a play, and to observe an actual production were only a few of the goals which dramatists hoped to accomplish. Most members agreed that the opportunity to attend five plays gave them a special insight into acting. Besides going to Big Valley ski area on weeknights and Jack Frost on weekends, skiers enjoyed two weekends skiing the slopes of Stowe Mountain. In order to help pay for the trip, commented Patti Green, Ski Club secretary, we held bake sales and newspaper drives. Puff 'n' Pencil Club members offered their services by applying makeup to the cast of the class plays. They financed their year-end banquet by selling candy.

We had a lot of good ideas in the beginning of the year, speculated Ondie Neifert, vice president, but everyone was too busy with other activities to complete them. Leo Club members became active when they sponsored a float for Homecoming and ran a stand at the Spring Festival. The float was later donated to the Coplay Lions Club when it was used in the Halloween parade. They gathered May 19 for the last time at the Gourmet Inn for their annual banquet. Pepsters assisted cheerleaders in promoting spirit when they painted signs and cheered at sporting events. When tickets for games became scarce, they were made available to Pep Club members first because of their supposed enthusiasm. Building strong muscles was the aim of weight lifters. Those interested were welcome to use the facilities in the field house. Students with intellectual abilities were recognized when they were elected to either the National Honor Society or the National Spanish Honor Society. NHS members attended a conference at Lehigh University May 20. In addition to hearing discussions on a variety of topics, they were able to tour the campus and meet with the faculty. Two scholarships were contributed at graduation and a picnic was planned for May 18. The greatest disappointment, said Ben Chrin, president, was the small turnout for the picnic. Although there were only five debaters, they tallied a 6-10 score. 122 SOCIETI ES I'MTIAT Puff 'n' Pencil Club members put their evil plot into action.

Senior Diane Ruszin and freshmen Fred Kimock and Stacy Williams attained awards out of Whitehall's 40 participants. Fred and Diane later received honorable mentions from Scholastic Magazine in New York City. Charles Barhight, in hopes of better acquainting freshmen with their general business course, assigned oral reports throughout the month. Subjects included were credit and job interviews. After a few years of teaching advanced mathematics, Carl Case resumed the responsibility of instructing general math students. For the first time, these students were introduced to computer and calculator operation. I believe,'' Mr. Case commented, that in the future the change-over will be for these individuals to constantly make use of the machines. Gym classes taught by Mrs. Judith Harakal began a new type of physical education division. Under revised form, these students developed skills in such recreational games as bowling, badminton, and ping pong. Mrs. FHarakal felt that since these games were most usually played in spare time, instruction and practice were necessary. Sophomores were required to take the National Educational Development Tests in order to observe and compare their academic standings with others across the nation. Pastels are used as creative instruments for members of the special education class.

In order to qualify, a league team had to win only half of its games. Unfortunately, Whitehall drew last year's champion, Allentown Central Catholic, in the opening round. The Zephyrettes made a good showing and only lost by nine points, 39-30, at Freedom High School February 23. In their last league game, the female hoopsters battled for the second half title, but were dumped by visiting Slatington 58-41. Both teams came into the contest tied for first with 5-1 second half records. Tracy Ernst and freshman Maureen Shaughnessy each scored 12 for the losers. Emmaus, the first half champ, then defeated Slatington for its second consecutive league crown. The Zephyrettes ended the latter half in a three way tie for second with Lehighton and Emmaus with 5-2 marks. Palmerton, Lehighton, and Northampton defeated the Zephyrettes early in the season, but Whitehall gained revenge on all three by taking victories in the latter half. Emmaus got balanced scoring with three girls in double figures to avenge its only first half loss with a 49-42 victory over Whitehall February 5. Coached by Miss Judy Emery, the Zephyrettes were paced by Eileen Shaughnessy and sister Maureen with 159 and 131 points respectively.

FROSH GAIN VALUABLE Coached by Ronald D'Argenio, the freshman basketball team finished its season 4-3 in the Lehigh Valley League and 11-6 overall. We lacked size to compete with most of our opponents, said coach D'Argenio in his first year at Whitehall, but I was pleased with their determination and desire to win and learn. Despite their lack of height, the freshmen, led by Bruce Rarig, Steve Mohr, and Gary Standorf kept the rebounding relatively even. The team's emphasis on defense was shown as the frosh held their opponents to 40.8 points per game while scoring an average of 50.6. In the last game of the season, the winning league record was taken with the aid of the team's leading scorers Rick Coombe and Gary Schlaffer.

In a non-league contest, visiting Catasauqua was tied down by the freshmen 64-44 February 5. In showing team balance, it was the third time that three players were in double figures as Mohr led the way with his 14-point performance. Standorf added 10 tallies and had 10 rebounds.

Coached by Chet Pieczynski, the jay vees did not match last year's 22-0 mark, but the team looked impressive when all the regular starters were playing. The starting line-up changed so many times, explained coach Pieczynski, that the guys had to play with different combinations on the floor each game. This hurt the team play and lessened the coordination between players. Injuries and the shifting of different players to the varsity squad caused the constant change in the starting team. The cagers gained revenge for a first half loss by defeating Catasauqua 61-53 February 19. Host Whitehall jumped out to a 13-0 lead, but the little Rough Riders came back to within one at the half. The jay vees remained composed and coasted to victory as Gary Wagner poured in 26 points and grabbed nine rebounds while Steve Panik, the only frosh starter, added 16. The tough defense held visiting Slatington to only 24 points and won 54-24 February 15. Undefeated in 14 league games, Northampton beat the visiting Zephyrs 61-49 in a contest at Northampton. While holding opponents to a 42 point average, the Zephs scored 53. Tim Snyder, Wagner, and Panik averaged in double figures. Wagner led the team with his 13 point average and 206 total rebounds. On defense are Greg Koren, Steve Panik, and Edward Gall in a non-league game against the Hawks. The jay vees were 7-1 in non-league games but fell back once the season started to a 7-7 league record. 13 2 DEVELOP GOOD DEFENSE Four Bethlehem Catholic cagers seem like Lilliputians beneath the outstretched arms of Cary Wagner. Wagner was the jay vees' big man lor most of the season and he also saw some varsity action. 133 DISCIPLINED Possibilities of a triple crown were kept alive by a well-disciplined varsity basketball team, as the Zephyrs won their first Lehigh Valley League title since 1967. The hoopsters posted 13-1 league and 19-5 seasonal slates, while taking only the fifth league championship in the school's history. At the beginning of the season, it was doubted that Whitehall would win the league crown because of the team's lack of experience and height. But Richard Tracy, third-year head coach, turned a mediocre team into well-respected league champs by emphasizing defense, hard work, teamwork, and discipline. It was a most pleasant surprise, said coach Tracy. We thought it would be more difficult. The defense, which was the key to the team's success, gave up a mere 40.9 average, one of the lowest in the state. In order to take the league title, the Zephs had to defeat visiting Slatington in their last league game. Whitehall dumped the Bulldogs 39-29 and took the second half crown. The Zephs jumped to a 12-2 lead and the Bulldogs never recovered. Both teams went into the contest with 5-1 second half records. The only Zephyr league loss came against archrival Northampton. Leading by five with a few minutes remaining, the Zephyrs missed six straight free throws and gave away the game 28-27. A taller and more talented Easton team beat Whitehall 41-27 at Liberty's Memorial Gym and halted the Zephs for the second straight year in District XI Class A playoffs. Easton went on to win the district championship. Randy Kemmerer was the key to our offense because he was the best shot on the team, explained the head coach. Playing in all 96 quarters, the 6'2 senior center led the team with 15.4 points per game, 368 total points, and 196 rebounds. He was the only Zephyr named to the All-Lehigh Valley League first team.

SWIM SQUAD CRACKS Individual standouts were many but team victories were few as the boys swimming team ended its season with 2-9 East Penn League and 2-11 overall records. Seven of the 11 team marks fell during the dismal season and junior Rick Bock broke his own 100-yard backstroke standard by three seconds in the District XI meet at East Stroudsburg State College February 16. Bock placed fourth and was the only Zephyr in the top five finishers of the individual events. The Zephyr 200 medley relay team of Bock, Charles Noble, John Elnitsky, and Andy Bausch took fifth. Emmaus grabbed its fourth straight EPL swimming title and also dominated the district meet by taking firsts in six of the 10 swimming events. In their last dual meet the Zephyrs took the opening relay, but gave up firsts in the following six events to visiting Dieruff. Whitehall lost the meet 107-65 February 6. Zephyrs got their second win with an 89-82 edge over host Northampton February 4. Rescheduled twice, the meet gave the winners eighth place in the 10-team league. Seniors Bausch and Noble were triple winners and Lee Hunter, Elnitsky, and Bock placed first twice. Bock, Allen Dangler, Bausch, and Noble were on the winning 200 medley relay team. I was disappointed, said coach Charles Plotsko, that we didn't win as many as last year. We didn't have enough swimmers and this caused us to lose the two non-league meets to Upper Perk. I am hoping more swimmers will turn out this summer in the playground league to help build a better team here.

Right: Congratulations are given to Bernie Kuchera by Brian Backus and teammates for his third period pm INJURED BY NO SUPPORT Poor team balance caused the wrestlers to finish their 17th straight losing season with 0-6-1 league and 1-11-1 seasonal marks. The wrestlers have promise, said head coach Thomas Field before the team went into action, but lack of support from the school will hurt us. The prediction was accurate with only eight returning lettermen trying to better last year's 5-9 record and the usual small crowds. The Zephyrs' ambition to better last season's results was to be denied as they evaded losing only twice. The first time was with a victory over Kutztown and the latter came in a 25-25 draw against Palmerton February 14. Jim Caley and Jim Greb were the only two Whitehall wrestlers to win in the Eastern Sectionals of the District XI Class A tournament. Greb was victorious by pinning Emmaus' Jim Klein and Caley took a decision over David Glady of Hazleton. Both Zephyrs advanced in competition but were defeated in the quarter finals. The year was not over when the grapplers suffered another setback as coach Field resigned. The team showed its appreciation by presenting Mr. Field with a going-away gift. John Toth, Mr. Field's assistant, was assigned to the helm while Robert Kratzer, who wrestled for Whitehall in the early '60s, took over the duties of jay vee coach.

Like March winds, streakers breezed across campuses and through public areas creating a new fad. Since many were taking up this past time, officials didn't know how to cope with the situations. Thus rules were established in order to deter streakers. But of course, Rules Are Made to Be Broken' as was evident in an Owl article on school regulations. Although everyone was aware ofthe broken guidelines, it was brought to everyone's attention when teachers r to crack down on students hoping to rectify thesituation. Sponsored by the Whitehall Rotary Club, Lena Lofgren, a Swedish Exchange student, resided with four area families while attending Whitehall. Sophomores enjoyed their traditional Sweetheart Dance March 22. Carolyn Bartoni was crowned queen of the semiformal. Chosen to attend the Presidential Classroom in Washington, D.C., March 16-23, were seniors Ben Chrin and Susanne Larsen. 6 13 20 1 — Presidential Classroom I LI in Washington — Cheerleaders' Dance — Ski ClubTripto Vermont — — Assembly — History of Rock II 22 — Sophomore Sweetheart Dance Created in everyone's best interest, school rules set the standards by which the students of Whitehall conducted themselves on campus. Unfortunately, they bore a close resemblance to the Ten Commandments in that someone could be found breaking them almost every minute of the day. Observations made over a two-week period were released in the March 1 issue of The Owl. The dates mentioned in particular reflected a typical day. Throughout the year many Whitehall students decided that going out to lunch added new flavor to the day. Eluding the faculty and administration at the high school exits became a challenging new game. At the beginning of the junior lunch period February 8, seven students were seen fleeing to their cars from the main entrance. Precluding the possibility of confusing these people with those were legally leaving the building. The Owl identified them and checked if they might be on the work program, going to Vo-Tech, excused for an appointment, or sent home by the nurse because of illness. The results indicated that none had legal excuses. In another survey, four days of counting heads in both cafeterias, and including the absentees and afternoon Vo-Tech students that would not be expected to be in lunch, revealed that 30 juniors and 30 seniors were not accounted for in ther respective lunch periods. A ratio for the freshmen and sophomores missing in comparison with the upperclassmen was about half that amount. Scanning the lavatories during the four lunch periods showed that all those not present in the cafeteria were not out to lunch. Girls, especially, who were dieting could be found carrying on a conversation sitting on the floor of a lav during lunchtime. Maybe they were not in the mood for eating, but many of them were starved for a cigarette. A three-day suspension was the consequence of being caught smoking on school grounds. But, even without the comfortable chairs and ashtrays one could expect in a smoking lounge, the lavatories of Whitehall served the same purpose. Proof of the smoking was found on the floor where smashed butts lay, or in the dense fog that lingered in the air. Although the common sight of 10 people crowded into a stall might have looked suspicious, a teacher could not turn them in on the assumption that they were smoking. Only a lit cigarette in hand could condemn a student, and the difficulty of catching someone red handed made most teachers reluctant to patrol the lavs. Another apparently unenforced rule had to do with parking permits students were required to purchase if they drove to school. On February 15, 206 cars lined Whitehall's parking lot. Of these, 160 did not bear the bumper sticker. However, noting that two of the cars that did not have Whitehall stickers did have Lehigh County Community College stickers, proved that somebody obeyed rules at least somewhere. There were only four occasions it was considered necessary for students to go to their lockers. Between classes was not one of them. At the end of the sixth period February 15, approximately 32 pupils were seen at their lockers in the D wing alone. Since this hall reflected an average as well as any, when multiplied by the other wings the possibility exists that 224 students attended their lockers after sixth period that day. Apparently the teachers had no objections to the students ignoring this rule. One reporter for The Owl noticed three faculty members pass and in no way stop her while she diligently turned her locker combination between classes. Were rules made to be broken? No, but they were temporary solutions for problems; not final answers. 142 Illegally leaving right o. front door to go for unch does not ieem lo attract any attention. Ji wo students are making a break for it at the beginning of (he junior ' period. If three is a crowd, what is five A typical sight under a girls' lavatory door is the feet of smokers. While some smoke proudly in the open, most prefer the privacy of the stalls. Going unnoticed, the era catches people at their lockers before r achers are able to. All three captured in th candids are violat- ing the no going to the locker between classes rule. Only on arrival in the morning, before and after lunch, and upon leaving for the day is it the students' privilege to attend their lockers. Many students seemed to understand otherwise as they continued to break rules. 143 ★ ★ ★ ★ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ! icicFir motives From surcir ¥ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + }. Home for one Whitehall High School sophomore was thousands of miles away. Lena Lofgren, exchange student sponsored by Rotary International in conjunction with the Whitehall Rotary Club, left her hometown Vesteras, Sweden, in order to spend a year studying at Whitehall. During her stay, Lena resided with four different families in the area. With proceeds from last year's Winter Carnival she was provided with $20 a month to help cover such expenses as a gym suit, a class ring, yearbook, and gifts for her guardians. One of Lena's favorite subjects was American Cultures. With the exception of more courses offered than in Sweden, commented Lena, Whitehall is very similar to my school. In addition to history, Lena enjoyed acting and belonged to the Drama Club. At graduation, Lena was presented with a special citation for her achievements at Whitehall.

During her stay she visited Washington, D.C. 145 ammaiinumDiiaaniiDP IB I can't believe it — a real, live streaker just ran in front of me, shouted a surprised, bewildered woman at the Whitehall Mall. After the initial shock, her amazement soon turned into laughter, and anyone could bet what her conversation was for the next week. Yes, Whitehall High School had its very own streaker! Wearing only sneakers, the Zephyr phantom Scott Reph, who made no attempt to hide his identity or anything else for that matter, struck at the upper end of the Whitehall Mall March 11 and hightailed it around the planter in front of the Sear's entrance. He did it to the tune of $200, and over 100 pre-informed fans came and cheered him on. Authorities at the mall hoped that others would not follow suit, or should they have said unsuited. Maybe if the sign at the entrance of the shopping center that read no bare feet' was updated slightly, people wouldn't have felt entitled to run naked through the mall. It certainly can't be said that Scott was breaking that particular rule. But to classify streakers as obscene, perverted individuals is hardly an accurate description. They were only performing the age old stunt that comedians have utilized since the year one. What gave vaudevillians the biggest laugh? Why the old dropping the pants routine, what else? Granted, polk-a-dotted skivies are a little less appalling than bare bottoms. But then who's to say that wearing the outfit everyone came into the world in, minus the sneakers of course, is really out of style. This might just have been the first time in history that the unclothed human body has been used for clean wholesome entertainment. Although Whitehall would like to claim the credit, Scott Reph did not invent streaking. It was traditionally a college prank, that eventually caught on. Locally, Lehigh University was a site for a mass streak. Many people couldn't understand why educated young men and women would endorse such carrying on. Well, there were many other things the young advocated that were far more dangerous. Streaking wasn't addictive like drugs, nor did it cause heart disease or cancer like cigarettes. Probably the worst thing that a streaker might have picked up was a bad cold. Going as far to say that people were losing their modesty and morals might just be a statement that's not easily justified. The Bible indicates that clothing is only a burden of the punished. Adam only concealed his body after he lost paradise. So, who knows, maybe in reality streakers were in the right! 146 Lehigh University streakers entertain onlookers by showing their shortcomings. The 4,000 gentlemen turned Bethlehem into the Naked City and the streaking capital of the Lehigh Valley.

Artwork is more of an eyecatcher than photos anyway. Both professed difficulty when it came to thinking of what to draw. I guess we make a good team, explained Rhonda, because we're both scatterbrains. SOPHOMORES Fast draw artists provide the Whitehall with new ad techniques. that drawings were used to such a large extent in yearbook ads. The trend is to move away from photo advertising, said yearbook editor Joannie Coringrato, and the artwork is definitely more lively. 159 Teachers across the nation were in the spotlight in April when they were recognized during Teacher Appreciation Week. Unfortunately, there was no Future Teachers Club so appreciation wasn't shown like it was other years. Taking advantage of the opportunity to travel, language students flew to Germany and Mexico. Many agreed that the trips gave them better experience in speaking the language. Three journalists flew to San Francisco where they were overall winners in a Yearbook Write-off Contest. While there, they heard different views on Patty Hearst than what was believed in the East. Seniors finally got a chance to perform when they rescheduled The Solid Gold Cadillac April 5 and 6. Religion entered the scene when students were permitted to meet their clergymen during their study halls.

PATTY HEARST For two months America sat on the edge of its chair waiting to hear some encouraging news on Patricia Hearst, a political kidnap victim of the Symbionese Liberation Army. Finally news came, but the content was enough to knock the legs right out from under America's seat. I'm now a member of the SLA, were the frightening words from Patricia's mouth that shook San Francisco harder than any previous earthquake. The terror started February 4 when members of the SLA abducted Patricia from her apartment. This terrorist, revolutionary left wing outfit first became known through a message claiming credit for the murder of Oakland school superintendent Marcus Foster. Their second communication, in the form of a tape recording, boasted of the abduction of Patricia, daughter of Randolph Hearst who is the chairman of the board of the multi-million dollar Hearst Corporation. Original ransom demands required a massive food giveaway to every low income person in California, which could have cost over 400 million dollars. Hearst countered with a two million dollar effort to feed the poor in the San Francisco area. The SLA demanded an additional four million dollars for the safe release of Patricia. Hearst persuaded the corporation to put up the money to be placed in escrow conditionally upon his daughter's release. Then the bizarre twist occurred. Patricia declared herself an SLA member and adopted the name Tania, after a wife of a South American revolutionary. The proclamation was made through a tape recorded message accompanied by a photo of Tania, posed with gun in hand, in front of the SLA's seven-headed cobra symbol. Reactions to this turn-about from victim to accomplice were varied with different people and the areas they lived in. Three Whitehall journalists were attending a conference in San Francisco when this phenomenon occurred. Talking with native Californians indicated local residents thought Tania wasn't being held against her will. Accounting for this might be the extended documentaries on Tania's background that San Francisco broadcasted. However, most people on the homefront felt that Tania was being brain-washed or drugged. Nevertheless, she continued her route and even participated in the robbery of a San Francisco branch bank. Little was heard from the group until the Los Angeles police, with FBI help, managed to corner six SLA members in their hideout. A fierce gun battle followed with the six eventually perishing in a fire that engulfed the house and its occupants. Tania was not among them, although William Wolfe, who was cited as her lover, was. A taped message followed the incident, and Tania re-enforced her commitment to the SLA cause ...TO THFHUNTFO? 163 Drama and humor was the formula for the senior class play as The Solid Gold Cadillac, unravelled its plot April 5 and 6. The performance concerned the adventures of a manufacturing empire with the original name of General Products. The president of GP, portrayed by John Potylycki, left his post making a replacement necessary. Everything ran smoothly until a timid old lady, Sue Larsen, asked some pointed questions about company business. She discovered some shady dealings and, with the help of the former president, attempted to regain control of the empire. A power struggle and comic complications followed. Miss Sarah Reith, faculty director, chose the play because of its humor and character development. One revision had to be made because of a lack of authentic looking costumes. The original setting was lifted out of the nineteenth century and placed in the twentieth. Other cast members were Deare Freemen, Ken Holler, Julie Klement, Paul Krencs, Sue Leibold, Betty Ann Lewis, Dave McClellan, Gail Miller, Tina Mondschein, Doug Solt, and Dan Yoder. Total cooperation and effort made the performance and practices enjoyable, concluded student director Mary Epser. First day on the job.

The April 20 performance entitled Sound Extravaganza featured tunes such as Port-au-Prince and The Musicians Strike. The latter led into intermission since most of the musicians walked off stage during the number. Because there weren't that many people present, said student director Paul Wirth, I was fairly disappointed. The band was honored at its annual awards dinner April 27. The MZB Booster Club sponsored the affair at which time band members received awards for service. Two musicians were honored by their selection to District Band and District Orchestra. Paul and Charles Noble were picked to represent Whitehall at these concerts. Although the size of the band has diminished within the past years, said first-year band director Robert Musser, I was pleased with its performance. It seemed that everyone was interested since I tried to involve all. Practice makes the concert worthwhile as musicians finally perform. Right: Where's everybody going?” wonders Robert Musser as members walk out during The Musicians Strike 166 Members of the concert band pay close attention to Robert Musser as he directs them through The House of the Rising Sun.

German and Spanish language students of Mrs. Mary jane Shumberger and Mrs. Edith Simon broadened their horizons by traveling to Germany and Mexico, respectively. Besides increasing their foreign vocabularies, both groups claimed they received many cultural benefits. “The experience, Denise Hessinger, senior, commented, was one I'll always remember. Twenty-seven seniors participated in student government day. These individuals assumed the roles of the township commissioners for a day, and learned of the problems confronting the operation of the local government. Student government day, township manager Joseph Moroney said, was definitely successful. Attending the seventh science symposium at Lehigh University was teacher Paul Hutnick and students Kevin Yandrasitz and Jeff Steiner. The attendees from 25 schools heard speakers who lectured on the interaction and interdependence among materials, energy, and the environment. Sophomores in Mrs. Leslie O'Connor's English class decided to act out the play Twelve Angry Men. The class thought, remarked Matt Millen, it would be better than just reading. Business students taught by Miss Lucretia Summers turned classwork into office procedures. Each student assumed a particular position for the marking period. That individual accepted all the responsibilities of that role. Grades were tabulated on the basis of performance. 168 Patience entwines with ability as Joanne Koury adds finishing touches to her art mural. Teona Dech and Audrey Smith assisted in the project.

This resulted in the publication of their creative works in a book containing similar writings of other high school students across the nation. However, these were not the only productive efforts which emerged. Art students showed their talents and abilities when they decorated the school walls. Various scenes concerning student life were painted. Besides brightening the building, the work helped students ripen their creativity. The best part of the project, concluded Louise Keppel, was seeing the results which colored the halls.

Although most at Whitehall seemed to be satisfied with their present status, : problems could arise. But for the moment, students had enough activities to keep them busy. Heading off the social activities was the Spring Festival sponsored by Student Council. An adaptation of the Winter Carnival, the event was smaller because of fewer participating clubs. Reflections was the theme of the Senior Farewell May 30. The Class of 74 enjoyed the setting of the Holiday Inn West for its last formal gathering. The Zephyr dream finally came true when the baseball team wrapped up the season by winning the league championship, giving Whitehall its first triple crown since 1967.

It hadn't been until two years ago that their pleas were finally brought to the attention of john C. Pitten-ger, state secretary of education, by his student advisory board. Since then this proposed Student Bill of Rights and Responsibilities, which consists of two parts — regulations and recommendations, has been circulated and discussed. In May, it was being revised for the third time. Points that were in question concerned corporal punishment, suspensions, blanket locker searches, and smoking. A most contradictory clause dealt with corporal punishment. According to the bill, corporal punishment will only be administered when the local school board authorizes it and defines its limits. Teachers or school authorities may use reasonable force — but not corporal punishment — to quell disturbances, defend themselves or protect other persons and property. In regard to suspensions, the bill requires as a regulation that students be allowed to make up without penalty, exams and work missed. A third controversial issue recommends that local school decisions recognize the extreme health hazards of smoking and that whatever policies adopted should apply uniformly to students, faculty, and administrators. Under former rulings locker searches could be conducted without the students' presence. The new bill provides that blanket locker searches be conducted only in emergency situations with the recommendation that the student be present. V Y 0..

Alfunso the clown, the famous Dorney Park trademark, welcomed Whitehall students May 16 at the annual Whitehall Day sponsored by the senior class. Purchasing a ticket at $4 allowed one to take a whirl on all the rides as many times as his heart desired and his stomach could stand it. Groves were provided for each class to have its own picnic before the rides came alive at 6 p.m. As usual, the roller coaster was the favorite of most, and the bumping cars were a close second. Senior Steve Polzer said it seemed like the coaster went faster at night so he waited 'til dusk to take his first spin on the big hills. However, senior Carl Brosious, obviously in the minority, hates the roller coaster. I wish it would burn down or something, so everytime I'm at the park I wouldn't get conned into going on it, he protested. This was the third year the class of 74 made arrangements with the park management to have a Whitehall Day. I really think the kids had a great time, said Keith Hontz, class president. That's why we've sponsored it the past couple of years. Hammy senior aviators soar high at the annual Whitehall Day.

Second Row: Diane Demko, Sharon Rohrbach, Terry Kloiber, Charlotte Heiney, Jan Wise. Reflections of four years gone by enhanced the last high school formal affair for seniors. The Farewell, May 31 at the Holiday Inn West, provided the setting and atmosphere for friends to relive their past experiences together. A variety of music played by the Young Ambassadors brought the ballroom alive from 9 to midnight. Beginning at 6:30 p.m., a buffet style dinner preceeded the dancing. Through the candlelight of an honor court, the candidates for queen filed up to the throne. Moments later, class adviser Phillips Armstrong announced Aleta Rucci the Farewell Monarch. Last year's winner Linda Stranzl was on hand to crown the new queen. Joy overcomes Aleta Rucci as Linda Stranzl, last year's monarch, crowns her 1974 Senior Prom Queen.

Left: Pauline Clark and her escort dip into the punch bowl for a refresher before the next dance. 2 01 Fun and games in the gymnasium were provided by clubs and organizations when the renamed Winter Carnival took on a spring appearance. Organized by Student Council the Spring Festival, as it was appropriately called, had 23stands for the public's enjoyment. In addition, seniors sponsored a dance in the cafeteria. At the beginningof theyear we weren't sure that there would be enough clubs to sponsor stands, explained Joe Lemoine, Student Council president, so we didn't reserve a date on the school calendar. Onceconfident that we would have enough organizations, we decided spring weather would draw a larger crowd. Naturally, the name had to be changed to suit the rescheduling.'' One controversy erupted when it was undecided whether to have a queen reign over the affair. In past years the Winter Carnival queen was chosen from senior girls who were never candidates for other titles. But because the Snow Queen was nominated this way the council had each class name three girls as contenders for the Spring Festival crown. The coronation of the new queen, senior Kathy Wolf, took place at 10 p.m. at the dance. Last year's winner Alexis Henry crowned and presented Kathy with a dozen red roses. Other candidates were seniors Cheryl Wargo and Wendy Yost; juniors Robin Albright, Tracy Ernst, Gayle Zimmerman; sophomores Shelly Feldman, Sherri Hontz, Vicky Rissmiller; and freshmen Donna Sinkovits, Desi O'Donnell, and Jayne Miller. 202 Happy and excited Kathy Wolf is presented with roses after being crowned by Alexis Henry.

With the permission of principal Clayton Northup, he organized choral members and saw that the production was a success. He was often assisted by Aleta Moyer, assistant director and pianist. Practices were held during homeroom periods and twice a week jfter school. 204 “Theshow must go on and the spring choral concert did go on despite the resignation of Walter Dworakivsky, choir director. To compensate for the change, senior Charles Noble, conducted the annual spring choral concert May 17. Rather than have thechoir disband, principal Clayton Northup agreed to a student director. It was great, said sophomore Cathy Robertson, that the students were interested enough to take over without a teacher's supervision, because there was much work involved. Selections such as The Sound of Music, Fiddler on the Roof, and Battle Hymn of the Republic” were sung. Students from the Allentown School District were featured in the orchestra. Because of the selections, commented Charles, it was necessary to have stringed instruments. Highlighting the concert was the performances of a duet and quartet. Somewhere,' from West Side Story, was sung by soprano Cathy Harmonosky and bass Barry Bechtold. Mark Fried, John Potylycki, Terry Smith, and Barry made up the quartet. Barry was honored earlier when he was selected to attend the Region II State Chorus at East Stroudsburg Area High School on March 14-16.

Because fewer students were enrolled in journalism, staffers were faced with even greater responsibilities when they accepted double and triple roles. However, despite the added pressures, Owl writers were recognized by the Call-Chronicle Newspapers for their outstanding articles. In addition to receiving a first place for his news story on school busing, Richard Steidle, Owl editor, was awarded a second place for his editorial on accounts. He was also named most valuable staffer. Firsts were also awarded to Bonnie Charles, managing editor, for her story, Rules Are Made to Be Broken, and to Jack Davis, sports editor, for his story on the splitting up of the Lehigh Valley League. Bob Bechtold, sports writer, received a second place for his basketball review. On a trip to San Francisco, yearbook staffers Annette Derkits, layout editor; Terry Kloiber, advertising editor; and Bonnie, associate editor, copped a first place out of 61 entries in a Yearbook Write-off Contest. Judged on copy quality, editorial leadership, and physical appearance The Owl received its 31st consecutive All-American from the National Scholastic Press Association. Yearbook advertisements require the creative touch of Cathy Robertson, Rhonda Altorfer, Susanne Larsen, and Cindy Klinikowski. The artwork ads were an innovation to replace planned pictures. Identifying and organizing pictures for the classes section was a chore, but Cail Snyder and Sue Dinbokowitz accomplish the task with ease while Melissa Chlebove contemplates ideas for a copy block. 207 Required parking stickers were conspicuously absent on most of the cars that Bonnie Charles checked. The Owl managing editor was compiling data for an award winning story on rule breaking. Opinion polls kept Genia Weider active as Owl editorial editor. She often galloped to study halls to collect views on Daylight Saving Time and other issues. She was also academics editor for the yearbook. 208 DESIGN CHANGES Alphabetical order was the goal of Sue Kopfer aided by Sherri Haas and Marsha Roadarmel in compiling the student index. They were responsible for over 2,000 entries. Sherri also wrote for The Owl. If there was anything that the staff members enjoyed, it was procrastination. Their expertise at this fine art forced most of the book to be completed in the final months of the school year. The 1974 Whitehall was a departure from the books of previous years due to its calendar layout. I thought we could more graphically illustrate the year, said editor Joannie Coringrato, by using chronological order. In contrast, the 1973 Whitehall was divided into separate sections depending on the category. It was obviously successful as it captured top awards from both major press associations. It received a Trendsetter from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association along with a Herff-jones Award from the National Scholastic Press Association. It was one of two in the nation to get both honors. Trying to look busy while killing time is Owl editor Richard Steidle. Nine issues of the paper kept him occupied most of the time. Formal type often proved to be a pain in the eyes to Gina Ginter. She set headlines and borders for most of the yearbook. Suburban Scene readers enjoyed the writing of Cindy Malika, Brenda Crush, and Elaine Smith. They also reported for the Whitehall.

Anyone wishing to pay the fee of $27 was permitted to test his abilities. I'm hoping to eliminate calculus, Richard said, so I can start off with more involved courses. The Edelweiss, a newly located delicatessen, was visited by German III students. Mrs. Mary Jane Shumberger purchased German specialties which they sampled in class.

A team effort was evident throughout the season as the pitching staff recorded 85 strikeouts in its 62 innings of play. There were no individual standouts, said rookie coach Randy Rice. As a team, the batting and pitching were very impressive. The team batting average of .347 and the pitching staff's 2.11 earned run average show it. The squad completed its season with a convincing 9-0 win over Catasauqua May 29. Tim Christman and Scott Sniscak combined for a three-hitter and 17 strikeouts, and catcher jeff Kurtz homered for the winners. The little Zephyrs took their only loss all season from Northampton 11-1 on the winner's field May 15. Both teams went into the showdown undefeated in league action. Because of the loss, Whitehall had to settle for second place and the little Kids won the unofficial league crown. The pitching fell apart, commented coach Rice, and a few error hurt us. On Dieruff's diamond the junior mittmen defeated the little Huskies 6-3 May 13 in non-league action. Christman hurled a four-hitter and Wilbur Bowen went three for three with two triples and three runs batted in. In league competition, the junior diamondmen beat visiting Lehighton 6-1 May 8 and tore apart the Stroudsburg pitchers for 24 runs in a 24-0 trouncing of the host Stroudsburg nine May 1. Plagued by rain and overall bad weather, the jay vees were forced to cancel three non-league games with Parkland, Dieruff, and Northwestern.

The Zephyrs played errorless ball and scored on Hazleton's mistakes. Dean Lakatosh and Scott Wasley, who batted under .200 during the regular season, picked up three of the Zephyrs' four hits and drove in half of the runs. Whitehall won the Southern Division crown by edging Parkland 5-4, earning the right to play Hazleton. Parkland had beaten Whitehall 6-2 earlier in the season and went into the game with a 13-game winning streak. In a playoff between first-half champion Whitehall and second-half champ Northampton, the Zephyrs took their sixth league crown in the past decade. The 6-2 win over host Northampton gave Whitehall the LVL title and the triple crown. Jeff Gerhard yielded only two hits and banged out four himself, as the crafty senior was backed with excellent fielding, especially from Lakatosh, who took away four possible base hits. The third no-hitter of the year came on May 24, when Chrin hurled hitless ball for five innings and went three for three at the plate. Rain cut the game short. Because of a home run that was and a home run that wasn't, Northampton ended Whitehall's 12-game league streak by extending its own string to seven with a 3-2 victory.

BECOMES COMMONPLACE Injuries cost the Whitehall track team sole possession of the Lehigh Valley League title, first place in the LVL meet, better placements in the District XI meet, and possible placements in the state meet. “I really believe that we stood a good chance to placing at states, said coach Tom Grammes, but every time I turned around there was another injury. The tracksters did manage to take one-third of the league crown and won the first seven meets. On May 1, the injury-prone host Zephyrs were edged by the Emmaus Green Hornets for the 20th straight year 59Vi-58Vi. The losers were ahead 541 2-40 V2 with only three events remaining but Emmaus, which lost to Lehighton earlier, caused a three-way tie between Emmaus, Lehighton, and Whitehall. All three teams were 6-1 in the league and the Zephyrs easily won their two non-league outings to go 8-1 overall. Whitehall's discus thrower Scott Reph placed eighth in the state track meet May 23-25, but the rest of the team was shut out in the trials and semifinals at Penn State University. Zephyrs qualified for states in five different events by placing in the top three in the district meet. Although no official team scoring was kept at the district meet this year. Zephyr cindermen did fairly well in Class A events. Whitehall victories came as Al Weiner, John Clark, Brian Backus, and Al Reed outkicked the field in the two-mile relay and Reed won the 880-yard run. Randy Kemmerer took second and third in the 440 and 220. Picking up points in 11 of the 14 events, Emmaus took the LVL meet title at Catasauqua May 11 with 39 points to top Whitehall and Lehighton, tied for second with 35. Weiner, Clark, Backus, and Reed opened the meet with a meet record in the two-mile relay for the only Zephyr victory.

Underclassmen anticipated the beginning of a three-month vacation while seniors looked back on their year of joy and achievements. Highlighting the list of events was the senior class trip to Disney World, Florida, marking the first since 1965. Enjoying two days in the Magic Kingdom, seniors left after baccalaureate and returned a day before commencement. T wel ve sen iors were recognized as part of theTop 10. In addition, 28 honor graduates were commended, the largest number ever. With the turning of thefhssds,seniors looked forward to new opportunities. The evening was topped when a few anxious celebrators set off firecrackers. Making the year complete, some clubs enjoyed their year-end banquets. Finals were administered to those who were required to take them. MOUfcHN AIH 10- Students — Last Day 17 11 30 24 ENI lfWNMENTflLll'T 22 4 Carol Fritzinger one of 12 students chosen to mark trails in Utah. While the rest of the seniors had their noses in books during the last weeks of school, nature-lover Carol Fritzinger responded to an attack of spring Fever by spending the month of May in the canyonlands of southeastern Utah. Her mission included marking trails, mapping indian ruins, and chipping steps into sandstone slope. Privileged to be one of 12 high school students in the country chosen by the National Student Conservation Association, Carol helped to provide some 30 miles of hikers' trails through Canyonlands National Park near Moab, Utah. We don't call it 'cutting trails' because that sounds like you're ruining natural growth. We care for the ecology and don't damage anything, she gently reprimanded. The WE she referred to is the group which was her family for the four-week volunteer position. She spoke of the deep impression of closeness she retains from her experience with the students and supervisors, including an Oregon couple and their three-year-old son as well as a student assistant and babysitter. Education away from her classmates, who were busily entering the final weeks of school, was, she noted, So easy outdoors. I call it growing. It was the kind of learning that makes you grow — and know how much you can really do. It took special permission from the school board for her to spend the time away from her formal studies. Her plane fare was her only financial responsibility. Upon her return to classes, there were only five school days left in which to make up the four weeks of studies. It must have been enough time since she was notified when she came home that she was elected to the National Honor Society. Another surprise, while still in Utah Carol received notice of being the recipient of the Zephyr Award in swimming. The information came by ranger who learned of it over short wave radio, Carol laughed. While her love of the Lehigh Valley's lushness is great, the quiet and stillness of the never-ending desert is something to which she wants to return. Your values change when you're on the desert, she said. The pace is slower and your observation is heightened. You also learn to carry enough water wherever you go. Carol plans to attend the University of Colorado in fall to study environmental conservation. When gavels changed hands and last fund-raising projects were completed, organization members sat down to eat, drink, and be merry at their year-end celebrations. Miss Virginia Himler presented each senior girl with a charm and a rose for every year of service in the Puff 'n' Pencil Club at Walp's Restaurant May 14. Junior lions held their festivities May 19 at the Gourmet Inn. President of the Leo Club Jack Mondschein greeted the attendees. Walp's Restaurant was again the setting for two more banquets, the Concert Choir's May 29 and the Drama Club's June 3. Journalists attended a giant birthday party June 6 at their annual publications banquet. Balloons and party hats provided the atmosphere for gift giving and announcing next year's top staff positions. Miss Marjorie Lazarus surprised the group by revealing Gina Ginter as the 1975 Whitehall editor and Elaine Smith the new editor of The Owl. 226 It's birthday time at the publications banquet, rule breaking in The Owl, gives Mr. Northup a and principal Clayton Northup gets the first pair of handcuffs and a police badge to help present.

As a reward for her dedication, adviser Miss Marjorie Lazarus admires a metal sculpture of an owl given to her by the staff. For the boss, a whip to keep staff members working, was editor of the yearbook Joannie Coringrato’s birthday gift. Don't cut that second layer! screams Bonnie Charles as Richard Steidle prepares to dig into a styrofoam cake. Although the top was real, the bottom three layers were fake cakes, as Richard found out. Bonnie and Gina Ginter planned the entire banquet and acted as speakers. 227 The proper method of splinting is practiced by Karen Reichl and Cathy Harmonosky in a first aid course. Their victim is Michele White, a freshman. Dryers are stored by Larry Bednar with the aid of a lift. Working at Kleckner Sons as part of the COOL program, he goes to school half a day. His job also includes minor repair work on appliances. 228 WoVFfll? CLOSES WITH EXAMS' Contrary to introducing students to carefree summer days, June was a time of tying unfinished ends together to produce a completed school year. Most classes spent the majority of the month reviewing for final examinations. Unlike other years, however, some class reviews only consisted of a handful of people. The new mixing of grade levels within one class caused some uneven distribution when the seniors graduated. Fifty freshman health enthusiasts of Miss Alice Miller devoted Saturday hours to be better instructed in first-aid. Russell Patterson, junior, left to spend the summer at Bucknell University. Russell received a $1,000 art scholarship after being chosen by Cov. Shapp from 2,000 applicants. With hopes of entering the special education field after high school, Debbie Eckhart helps Shawn Dougherty with his assignments. 229 Seniors beam after being recognized as part of the Top 10. Graduates were Karen Miller, Tina Mondschein, Gail Snyder, Julie Yaple, Front; Pat Nemetz, Vicky Hunsicker, Bonnie Schrampf, Middle; Jane Bonenberger, Richard Steidle, Andy Bausch, and Diane Ruszin, Back. In addition to the Top 10, the class of 74 recognized 28 honor graduates, the largest number that Whitehall has ever had. 230 GRADUATES Distinction between averages was so slim that the Top 10 became 12 when totals were computed for superior academic achievement. Because of two placement ties, 12 were specifically recognized out of the all-time high of 40 honor graduates. Heading the list was valedictorian Andy Bausch. In winning the highest scholastic award, he recorded a perfect 4.0 average. Andy also received the scholastic award for a boy athlete since he was on the track team and won the Zephyr Award in swimming. He was on the senior class executive committee and in the Varsity W Club. Like the 11 other members of the Top 10, Andy was in the National Honor Society. His post high school plans include attending Muhlenberg College for pre-med. Along with Andy, Diane Ruszin was a commencement speaker since she captured the second highest scholastic rating and the best for a girl. Her creativity was evident when she earned a finalist rating in the Scholastic Art Awards Exhibition at the Zollinger-Harned store in the Whitehall Mall. Diane will go to Kutztown State College for Psychology. Third place belonged to Julie Yaple. She also tied for the highest science average. Julie received a Letter of Commendation for her performance in the National Merit Scholarship competition. The Puff 'n' Pencil Club counted her as a member.

She was a cheerleader and earned the highest average in physical education for a girl. Kutztown State College will see her after high school where she will take up psychology. Also checking in at seventh was Karen Miller. She was the National Honor Society's secretary and also got a Letter of Commendation in the National Merit Scholarship competition. Karen was in the Marching Zephyr Band, a candy striper, and a volunteer at Camp LARC. She received the highest average in social studies and will attend East Stroudsburg State College to study political science. Alone at eighth place was Jane Bonenberger who also had the best average in bookkeeping and Spanish. She received a Letter of Commendation in the National Merit Scholarship competition and was president of the Spanish Honor Society. Mathematics will be her major at Allentown College of St. Francis de Sales. The other tie in the Top 10 was for ninth. Gail Snyder, who will take business at Bloomsburg State College, was one in the deadlock. She was on the typing brigade for the journalism department and co-editor of the classes section for the Whitehall Betty Crocker Homemaking Award winner Pat Nemetz also tied for ninth. She had the best grades in home economics and was the manager of the girls basketball team. Richard Steidle completed the Top 10. He had the best average in mathematics along with ties for science, for a boy in physical education, and for a boy in social studies. The only Whitehall student to be named a Merit Scholar, he was editor of The Owl. Richard will attend the Massa-chusettes Institute of Technology in September. 231 Senior years often seem only half a year since most students 'hang it up in the classroom after future plans are resolved. However, there were enough activities to keep all 318 seniors busy. Athletes starred both indoors and out as 14 upperclassmen received Zephyr awards. The list of royalty increased when Genia Weider, Wanda Boyer, and Kathy Wolf were crowned Homecoming, Snow, and Spring Festival queens, respectively. Ben Chrin and Sue Larsen attended the Presidential Classroom in Washington, D.C. Seniors were especially occupied with four events in one week. The senior prom, baccalaureate, class trip, and graduation proved a memorable way to end their year.

The upper corner of the gymnasium was usually filled with upperclassmen who supported the Zephyr five with a variety of chants, motions, and a continual dull roar during games. 233 The Class of 74 really accomplished something out of the ordinary ' said Diane Demko, treasurer, when we planned our class trip to Disneyworld. Other active officers were Keith Hontz, president; Deborah Bernini, vice president; and Sharon Rohrbach, secretary.

They sponsored the Spring Festival dance, a car wash, and Whitehall Day at Dorney Park. SENIORS Class trip to Disneyworld highlights senior accomplishments. 235 Head majorettes twirl their way into the hearts of spectators. When the majorettes performed it was amazing how many people thought Oh, anybody can do that! Making the most difficult routine appear easy only proved the ability of the performers. Doing drills hour upon hour, Vickie Pizzo and Colleen Scott led the majorette squad with ease and grace. Vickie was the only freshman to make the squad three years ago. Her experience has paid off for she is now able to give lessons. I really enjoy teaching, she explained, so the lessons are fun for my students too. In the summer Colleen and Vickie attended the Blue Mountain Sports Camp. Working on drills and routines for most of the day, added Colleen, was tiring but a lot of fun.

The semiformal White Christmas ' took place December 22 and successfully instilled many with the holiday spirit. For the first time, Santa Claus made a personal appearance and crowned Wanda Boyer as the 73 Snow Queen. I was really surprised, remarked Wanda, to be honored in this way. It was a moment I will cherish forever. Her court included Joannie Coringrato, Charlotte Heiney, Kim Matsco, Kathy Nehilia, Colleen Scott, Stephanie Terleski, and Suellen Turbedsky.

During their stay in Amsterdam the 16 girls were spectators at the World Cup Tournament. Other highlights included touring Ann Frank's house, the Heineken Brewery, and the Arctic Zoo. Agreeing that the Dutch food was unusual, the girls visited the Orange Julius and ate their favorite American foods. During their free time, De Bier Lier was a popular spot.

Their comfort, durability, and easy care were just a few characteristics that made them perfect for everyday wear. “I believe that a girl can be as feminine in jeans as in a dress, confided Kathy Ivankovitz, and also be much more relaxed. The newest variation was the straight leg jean. Worn with unusual colored socks, this '40s revival was rolled up to mid calf length. Drab days sparkled with little glitter shirts, while bulkier sweaters were seen in several roles when colder weather arrived. Short zip front jackets and long belted sweater coats were popular for outdoor wear. Jeans with variations prove perfect for everyday wear. 251 31ft LAILH I pronounce you graduates of Whitehall High School, were the magic words from Dr. George Steckel that set off fireworks, shouts of joy, and even a few tears. June 6 was the eventful day when 318 seniors received diplomas and found themselves alumni moving on to future challenges. Dr. Donald Mulkerne, professor of business education, State University of New York at Albany, delivered a speech entitled Averages Aren't Good Enough” that stressed the importance of setting one's sights on higher than average deeds. Lest We Forget was the symposium chosen by student speakers Diane Ruszin and Andy Bausch. Louis Kloib-er gave the diplomas as principal Clayton Northup announced awards. AlflAMAS Graduates tollow superintendent Dr. George Steckel in solemnity and anticipation. Directly behind Dr Steckel are Louis Kloiber, president oI fhe school board, and the class officers. 252 Averages aren't good enough, stresses Dr. Donald Mulkerne of State University of New York during commencement exercises. Valedictorian Andrew Bausch wonders if life in 1984 will resemble that in George Orwell's novel. Left: Reactions to the goings on atop the speakers platform are seen on the face ot Donald Deemer. Both sadness and joy were mixed emotions expressed by graduates. 2 53 UMfiY ANSflAANfi Taking time out from the ceremony, senior choral director Charles Noble leads the choir in One Tin Soldier. The band also provided music throughout graduation. Above: Words of wisdom are absorbed by graduates during the 70th annual service. Dialogue by Chicago asked the class of '74 if it was optimistic 'bout the way things are going, during the unique and modern Baccalaureate Service June 2. The song was used as the processional and recessional to correspond with the theme of New Beginnings. After the invocation and responsive prayer led by the Rev. Harold Sell and reading of the scripture by the Rev. Father John Martin, the Rev. David S. Mohr presented A Multi-media Consideration of New Beginnings with the aid of slides and the singing voices of Sharon Augustine and Joan Krempasky. Pictures projected on the screen of familiar faces gave the service a personal touch, and even caused a few giggles at fellow classmates caught in the act of being themselves. Such songs as Anticipation, This Is Day, and Let There Be Peace reflected an era as well as a sentiment. I was looking forward to Baccalaureate just to get it over with, confessed graduate Carl Brosious. But I ended up enjoying it. In the concluding benediction Pastor Sell said, Go forward as your new life begins. With that the members of the class of 1974 answered Amen! 254 There is no doubt that Terry is her father's, president ol the school board Louis Kloiber, favorite graduate. After receiving her diploma, Dad promptly placed a kiss of luck on Terry's cheek.

The boy who continually drops his lunch tray, the girl who is late every morning, and the teacher who sheds a tear when her favoriteclass walks out the door for the last time each play a significant role. i Although seniors must leave, a new class will enter to take their place with fresh ideas. The school will change giving them experiences all their own. For no matter how unimportant the role or how time is measured, the contents are the same — memories.
