WHITEHALL HIGH SCHOOL 3800 MECHANICSVILLE ROAD WHITEHALL, PENNSYLVANIA VOLUME 57 Published by the Journalism Department 2 A HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL YEAR .. . 3 This yearbook was arranged alphabetically for the readers’ convenience. ACADEMICS............ Each student celebrates acquiring knowledge and learning skills in different ways. Private studying and discovery may have been fulfilling for one individual, while a more outgoing person thrived on participation or got into the act through roleplaying. Open communication lines in the classroom allowed the expression of valuable opinions. Better understanding of a subject was attained through practical application. Many times academic achievement was inspired by competition. CLASSES . . . Outstanding individuals as freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors alike kept the jubilant spirit of Whitehall 1976 alive. FACULTY . . . Administration, faculty, counselors, as well as office aides and cafeteria, custodial, and transportation staffs were an intrical part of the educational process. HISTORY . . In honor of the nation’s Bicentennial year this section, made possible by local merchants, was devoted to the events in America’s and in our community’s history that made Whitehall what it is today. ORGANIZATIONS . . Students were united by common interests in the school's clubs, government, music groups and publications. SPORTS . Enthusiastic cheerleaders proved that basketball and football were favorites, but no less important were baseball, cross country, field hockey, golf, softball, swimming, tennis, track and wrestling. STUDENT LIFE . . . At the heart of the school year were special occasions including a trip to Disneyworld. drama productions, graduation. Homecoming, proms. Whitehall Day. and the winter carnival. Dances were held where the latest fad was doing the hustle. Students found themselves in contact with the community through school activities and by answering the help wanted ads. Awards were given to those who excelled in some aspect of high school life. Easy was not the word for Whitehall 1976. Athletes moved to the tougher East Penn League, scholars were graded by a rigorous point system, and the “Great Whitehall Issue” between Richard Tracy and Andrew Melosky resulted in the hiring of a new basketball coach. But the accomplishments that emeged from these conditions were more meaningful since they were harder earned. Events from the fruity banana eating contest to the smash musical “Once Upon a Mattress” were brilliant successes. 5 Revenge was sweet when varsity gridders took Emmaus 20-7 on Turkey Day. Matt Millen lifted 315 pounds to gain first place in the heavyweight division of Eastern Pennsylvania. No less outstanding was Brenda Crush, valedictorian, whose achievements were in the academic field, or the five finalists whose art masterpieces went to New York City for national competition, or Owl writers who captured the All American and the Medalist awards. These moments of triumph were rewards for dedication and perserverance. Brave colonists who won liberty for America 200 years ago have brought home the Bicentennial spirit to present day youth. Homecoming float committees based their theme on it, artists depicted historical events, parades honored the men and women who made this freedom possible and patriotism was incorporated in lesson plans and in band and choir concerts. Yet, the most important celebration was the gratitude shown for the American Heritage that our nation's fathers fought and died for. 8 Female president, father-daughter team mark unique ADMINISTRATION SGfiOOF BOARD PACOS ROOMS W1TR1N [1] ew faces occupied old positions in the district office as If Daniel Yakubecek assumed Dr. George Steckel’s former job as district superintendent. Assisting Mr. Yakubecek were Edwin Wertman and Alton W. Frey Jr. William Bodisch was replaced by Mrs. Elizabeth Buchmiller who became the first woman president of the Whitehall-Coplay school board. Mrs. Buchmiller tried to keep an open line of communication between the school board and students. “Students are the leaders of tomorrow, she explained. “I don't think they should be able to run everything, but they can’t be ignored. The district’s first father-daughter team was formed when Bernard Nedcrostck was sworn in and joined Mary Catherine, elected in ’73. Samuel Schaadt was also elected in November. Student Government’s proposal of outside smoking areas was one issue the board had to contend with. They rejected the plan by a 5-2 vote.

Bottom: Always ready to lend a helping hand is assistant principal Dale Baker. Besides the daily hassle Clayton Northup, principal, coped with many other problems that were present. Perhaps, the most perplexing was the increase of student failures. Midway through the year 45.4 per cent of the freshmen were failing one subject or more. Administrators and faculty had to deal with this serious dilemma so they requested a transition and resource room for next year in the hopes of aiding incoming freshmen. Report cards underwent another revision as Whitehall went computerized. The resignation of Richard Tracy, administrative assistant, as head basketball coach, was an upset for many, but rumors of his decision to resign from his present position will probably cause even more uproar. He indicated he'd like to return to the classroom. Dale Baker, assistant principal, aided Mr. Tracy in discipline while organizing clubs and extracurricular activities. 11 Assistant principal Dale Baker performs one of his many jobs, checking on delinquent students Besides that he assisted in orientation and evaluation of new personnel Far Left: Principal Clayton North up refreshes himself with punch and cookies at the College Workshop Principal Clayton Northup shakes off a winter chill He could often be spotted, along with his wife, enjoying a basketball game.

Help was on its way as four teacher aides were hired to assist with mimeographing and typing. Main office secretaries Mrs. Catherine Malast, Mrs. Meta Wotring, and Mrs. Margaret Sterner also helped to make every day run smoothly. The guidance office was run by Mrs. Jean Schunk and Mrs. Gladys Comfort. “We like our jobs because we are always in contact with kids, they said. William Stickler, librarian, was assisted by Mrs. Doreen Miller, and Stephen Marushak was in charge of audio-visual equipment. Last but not least was Miss Evelyn Falk, school nurse the past 30 years. “I find my position very satisfying and rewarding, she commented, “because I enjoy helping the students.

Advanced biology classes decided to test area water to sec if pollution existed. Much to the surprise of Edgar SteckePs students a high degree of foreign particles were detected in all the untreated water samples. especially those from Trcichlcr's Spring. Once again Robert Kratzcr’s Writing II classes wrote kiddie books for the elementary school children; however, there was one new addition. The students involved compiled all they learned through Mr. Kratzer's open teaching methods into a lecture which was given to his graduate class at Kutztown State College. Michael Watson, Andrew Buda, and Miss Linda Spcctor displayed their students' art projects at an art show at the Whitehall Branch of Fidelity Bank. Mr. Watson and Mr. Buda also allowed some students to paint huge bicentennial pictures which were hung by the auditorium as murals. Due to student vandalism, however, “babysitters” were needed to protect the pictures from being damaged or destroyed so several seniors were excused from study halls to stand guard. A few talented seamstresses of the home economics classes were selected to sew the costumes for the entire cast of the school musical “Once Upon a Mattress.” Some other home cc students did charitable work for Meals on Wheels by baking Christmas cookies and making centerpieces. But the real public service was that several of the girls involved visited the aged who received these presents. Michael Broschak decided to test his general music students' abilities in composing original songs. “They did fairly well,” he said, “and it seemed as though they really liked what they were doing.

Did she break up with her boyfriend? Not really, it's just Mrs. Diane Luhrs' family home living classes doing an experiment on child abuse. “Each girl made a heart which represented her total being as she woke up in the morning,“ said Mrs. Luhrs. “As the day went on a part of the heart was ripped off each time she was insulted or made to feel unloved. This was then related to the newborn child.“ Later while reading about budgets, budgets for their married and teenage years were planned. After studying cake decorating from textbooks as well as demonstrations, the foods classes were turned loose to develop their own creative designs. “Oh no you're not,” stammered the horrified biology student. “You are not going to prick my finger!” Once again, as a part of determining gcnctical background, Mrs. Nancy Thatcher and Wayne Young had their students do blood typing. More college bound math classes have started to learn business math as preparing income tax statements. “It was really great,” commented Carole Reincrt, “for once we learned something we could always use.” “Winds of Change” by the Bee Gees, a modern song of social change, was analyzed by a group of Thomas Szabo's American Cultures II students as a final project. They found pictures relating to the meaning behind the lines and then explained how it related to the state of the world. Handyman Richard Picone repairs a water heater.

The little Zephs had their best offensive output of the season in an 11-2 defeat of Dieruff. Jim Elchook, the winning pitcher, had nine strikeouts while Mike Fabian and Vlahovic each drove in three runs. Strong defense was the junior mittmen’s forte in a 9-2 trouncing of Catasauqua. The team compiled an impressive total of 12 hits with Jim Mizgerd rapping out a double and two singles. The jay vee defense gave way to error midway through the season as they dropped four of their six losses by mistakes. Liberty capitalized on the junior varsity’s errors to gain a 13-6 win. Ron Snyder banged out three hits in four times at bat while Fabian added two. Easton used a two-run homer and a sacrifice fly in the last inning to edge out Whitehall 6-5. Vlahovic hurled a four-hitter striking out eight, with Bill Marks, his catcher, getting three hits. JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL — Front Row Dennis Roman. Adolph Yost. Kurt Horlachcr. Guy Schwcnk.

The mittmen ended league action with a 4-1 loss to Liberty. The Hurricane, runnerup in the East Penn League, took advantage of two Zephyr errors by adding four hits of their own in the second inning to clinch the win. Brad Rice, EPL All-Star team honorable mention, scored Whitehall's only run when he walked, stole second. and came home on Rick Fetherolfs long single. Phillipsburg fell to the diamondmen 4-1 due to the hot hitting of third baseman Dan Kochenash. Kochenash drove in three runs with a two-run homer and a sacrifice fly. Righthander John Klobosits went the distance for the mittmen striking out six and walking only two, while singling in another run. The Zephs used an eight-run, fifth inning uprising to wipe out a one-run deficit and win a 16-10 slugfest with Freedom. Rick Hamscher and Tony Gallina hammered two run homers during the mittmen's spurt, while Willie Roman, Eric Charles, Jeff Kurtz, and Greg Koren each added two hits. honed out at second by a Northampton player is senior Brad Rice. The Konkrete Kids won the first encounter between the two teams 5-3 with a three-run. fourth inning rally. The Zephyrs came from behind on Jeff Kurtz's two-run blast to win the second contest 4-3 with Rice rapping out two hits. 24 trong hitting was evident as seven players hit .300 or better. Dan Kochenash led the way with a .333 average and also showed his speed by stealing six bases for another team best. Power was provided by Jeff Kurtz, who rapped out three home runs, two triples, and 11 RBIs in the year, while also showing his prowess at the plate by drawing nine walks to tie Scott Sniscak in that column. Kurtz’s strength was shown in a 4-3 defeat of Northampton as his two-run blast in the third inning proved to be the margin of victory. Tony Gallina led the team in RBIs with 13, while Brad Rice, who had the second best batting average with .329, was the leader in hits with 23, including five doubles. In the pitching department Steve Prazenka had one of the top ERAs with 2.88. The junior southpaw had a fine game against Parkland, limiting the Trojans to just three hits, but came out on the losing end of that 3-0 pitcher’s duel. John Klobosits had the hurlers’ best record going 4-2 while also recording the team’s only save. Klobosits also led in strikeouts compiling 30, followed by his teammate Steve Scott who recorded 19. An attempted pick-off move is made by a Dieruff pitcher as Zephyr Steve Panik (24) races back to the bag. Whitehall beat the Huskies 7-6 with an unearned run in the bottom of the seventh inning. Zephyr pitcher Steve Scott starts his windup as Brad Rice stands ready at second base for the outcome of the pitch Scott, with a 1-0 record, had a 3.85 ERA and compiled 19 strikeouts for the team. 25 Kochenash leads way with a .333 batting average in Scorecard WHITEHALL OPPONENTS 8 Northwestern 6 7 Central Catholic 3 3 Southern Lehigh 10 0 Reading 8 5 Easton 8 7 Dieruff 6 4 Phillipsburg 1 4 Freedom 1 7 Emmaus 5 2 Bethlehem Catholic 6 3 Northampton 5 4 Parkland 12 0 Liberty 3 16 Freedom 10 8 William Allen 7 5 Emmaus 4 4 Bethlehem Catholic 7 4 Northampton 3 3 Parkland 4 1 Liberty 4 Won 10 Lost 10 Third baseman Dan Kochenash (15I turns and looks for the umpire's call in a close play at first base with Bethlehem Catholic fielders.

After a poor first quarter performance the frosh came back to outscorc the Red Rovers by 20 points midway through the second period to pull off the win. The little Zephs also overcame an 11-point deficit with an effective second half press to edge Stroudsburg 49-45 with Tim Coval netting 12 points. Bob Fischer sank a clutch free throw in the final 15 seconds to help Whitehall squeeze by Catasauqua 52-51. Poor rebounding and an abundance of turnovers hurt the frosh in a 75-55 loss to Central Catholic. The freshman rallied behind the hot hand of Coval, who poured in 26 points, to gain a 57-44 victory over Northampton. In the second encounter with the Konkrete Kids the little Zephs were hurt by foul trouble, losing 61-55. Three starters fouled out late in the fourth quarter including high scorer Gary Greb who tallied 27 points. Coval and John Keglovits netted 15 points each in the first half of the Nazareth game.

Putting it all together was our problem commented Chester Pieczynski. We lost most of our games due to weak ball handling and mistakes. Reshuffling of his lineup was a problem coach Pieczynski had to contend with as three freshman players were moved up to JV to fill the spaces vacated when Tom Gammon, Dan Coval, and Bill Hobson stepped up to varsity midway through the season. The jay vees had three players in double figures, but Emmaus proved too strong in a 57-46 loss. Gary Fetter tallied 12 points. Gammon 11, and Tony Vlahovic, 10, for the little Zephs. Mark Boncnbcrger converted two foul shots with six seconds remaining to lift the junior cagers to a 37-36 victory over Bethlehem Catholic. Teammates Gammon and Vlahovic chipped in 12 and 11 points respectively. Northampton used a balanced scoring attack to down the junior varsity 61-43 while Catasauqua thwarted a JV comeback in another loss, 47-42. Whitehall got some offensive firepower from Gammon and Coval, who combined for 29 points, to lead the little Zephs to a 44-37 independent win over Southern Lehigh.

Tom Szabo returned from a two-year Wilson Boro stint to take over as head coach after the resignation of Richard Tracy. “I think it was the new system which created problems,” commented Mr. Szabo. “We couldn’t seem to put together any fourth quarter surges probably due to lack of understanding between the players and myself.” The hoopsters posted an independent 35-26 win over Southern Lehigh in the season opener. Gary Wagner and Ed Gall combined for 16 points as the Zephyrs relied heavily on their two big inside men. Strong rivalry with Northampton was evident in both encounters. In the first contest Whitehall almost pulled an upset over the EPL runnerup in a 65-48 decision. It took the Konkrete Kids three and one-half quarters to get their inside game in gear against the stingy Zephyr defense as the hoopsters stayed close behind Wagner’s game high of 24 points. In the second game, the cagers tried a more deliberate style of play until a 22 point fourth quarter explosion ended the game in a 40-11 Konkrete win.

Cagers, strong defensively, gave up an average of only 49 points per game, second best in the league. But offensively they were poor. “Our foul shooting is what hurt us, explained Tom Szabo, coach. “If we had been able to convert our free throws it would have helped to win a lot of our close games. This was extremely evident in the Freedom contest where the Zephyrs missed 15 of their 22 attempts at the line while the Patriots failed to convert only two en route to 40-37 victory. The hoopsters had their big win, 67-51, over Parkland. Whitehall finished with four men in double figures including Greg Korcn’s game high 24 points. The Zephyrs gave Easton a scare in the first round of District XI Class AAA Playoffs losing 51-40 in the final quarter of a highly disputed game which saw the Red Rover’s Dave Lutz get taken to the hospital for a possible concussion. Both teams complained of the bad officiating with Easton spending the final minutes of play at the foul line to protect its win. The cagers were led offensively by Steve Panik with 9.6 points and Gary Wagner took care of rebounding, averaging 11 per game.

Both gained honorable mentions on the league's All-Star team. In District XI playoff action the girls lost to district and league champion Emmaus in the second round of play. The Hornettes outpointed the Zephyrettes 20-7 in the second period to take a lead they never lost. First round competition saw the girls just edge out Hazleton 34-31 with the team’s “big two,” Shaughnessy and Fritzinger, tallying 14 points each. Clutch free throws by Shaughnessy and Marycsther Merlo in the final 30 seconds carried the Zephyrettes to a 43-41 victory over Lehighton. Trailing by 14 points at the start of the fourth quarter, the girls switched their defense and turned Lehighton turnovers into Whitehall points.

Only 11 clubs remained active in contrast to the large number that was once present at Whitehall. A charitable but yet profitable task was organized by the National Honor Society as it sponsored a volleyball marathon. Officers and adviser Ray Erb decided to donate one third of their profits to the Good Shepherd Home. Led by faculty members Robert Steckel, Donald Poppe, and Allen Dangler, the Varsity W club tried to organize a trip to Hershey to see an ice-hockey game, but due to apathy the trip was cancelled. More successful were their candy sales where students could earn jackets. “The purpose of the club,” commented Mr. Steckel, athletic director, “was to unite students that participated in sports.” The Leo Club, guided by Robert Hauck, performed a number of services for people all over the Lehigh Valley.

Other field trips arranged by the club were to see the Christmas Putz in Bethlehem, the cloisters at Ephrata. and Moravian College. Also, for the first time a German National Honor Society was begun and 50 seniors, juniors, and sophomores were initiated. Journalism students enjoyed an evening out at their banquet held early in June. The event was entitled “A Night at the Emmys and everyone received a trophy for humorous incidents or funny stunts that occurred during the year. In its third year, the Journalism Club, composed of 23 freshmen, was led by Miss Marjorie Lazarus. Candy. Christmas decorations, oil lamps, and Shane's discount tickets were sold to help pay for the yearbook. The group met during homeroom periods and it gave them the opportunity to discover what journalism is all about. “Mucho Gusto was one way of describing the Spanish National Honor Society. Guided by Mrs. Edith Simon, the members raised money by selling necklaces. “We had some good ideas, stated Sharon Csensits, “but we couldn't agree.

With its 70 active members, weekly ski trips were taken Monday and Wednesday nights, along with visits to the Poconos. February 26-29 was the snow buffs' annual trip to Vermont. After-school sessions were scheduled by advisers Phillips Armstrong, Scott Barhight, and Warren Hausman, who taught students how to handle skis. They earned money from a car wash in October and by sponsoring Dorney Park Day. “This year proved to be bad for skiing because of the weather but I do hope next year will improve,” said Mr. Armstrong. “I’d also like to get more underclassmen involved in the club,” he concluded Future Secretaries Club members discuss ways to raise funds.

Ill, and IV classes visited Moravian College to see the movie “Don Quixote.” It was entirely in Spanish and followed the famous novel precisely. Songs from “West Side Story, “Carmen,” “Porgie and Bess,” and other operas were performed by five members of the Young Audiences of Philadelphia at an opera workshop arranged by choral director Floyd Williams. “Considering I’m not an opera fan,” said freshman Sue Weber, “I really loved their performance.

Mr. Weir spoke to family home living classes. Speech students learned that communication is the key to success. Through verbal expression, along with poise, many goals may be achieved.

The cost was estimated at S168.600. A successful community is one that can pick itself up and start over again after disasters hit; one that continually expands; and one that educates its youth the way Whitehall has done. Forced evacuation for families late in January occurred as huge ice cakes melted and the rampaging Jordan Creek overflowed its banks, fortunately no injuries resulted. An Allentown pilot’s single-engine Piper Cherokee crashed into a field and burst into flames near Queen City Airport February 11. The badly charred body of the pilot was identified as Frank Meehan. A persistent early March storm blanketed the Lehigh Valley with eight inches of snow-bringing an abrupt end to the spring-like weather. Renovations enhanced the township’s police department and the library totaling 168.900. The latter’s expansions features an all-purpose room.

Tracey Bcdics placed third for her poster entitled “America — Land of Resources.” “I never considered winning,” said Tracey, “so when I placed I was really surprised.” Unfortunately only the first and second places winners went on to national competition. Zollinger-Harned sponsored the Scholastic Art Awards Contest in which Mary Wagner, sophomore; Leonard Wood, freshman; Laurie Croll and Nancy Scheirer, juniors; and Diane Steigerwalt, senior, were finalists. This enabled them to compete at a national level in New York City. Diane and Mary received honorable mentions for their entries in the nationals. “What Is an American?” was something many have pondered during the overemphasized Bicentennial year. So NBC developed an essay contest in which all participants answered this topic question according to their own experiences and emotions. Paul Stein, Writing I teacher, required two of his classes to write an essay on this topic. However, it was up to each individual student to decide if his creation was good enough to be entered. “There is much competition between countries,” remarked Ray Erb, as the students sat staring back at him. So to stir up some interest in one unit Mr. Erb utilized a sociological game known as “Arms and Resources,” which was a simulation of a cold war. 53 Marching Zephyrs participated in the Blossom Festival of Bands in Niagara Falls.

Students who were interested in working participated in the diversified occupation program headed by Dollard Guth. The department also held seminars, a college workshop, and a program from Campus Philadelphia, where 13 colleges from the Philadelphia area presented an informative program on their respective schools. Although Giles Roehrs, school psychologist, didn’t have an office in the high school he was often seen in the guidance department helping individual students with many problems. Miss Patricia Budd helped some of her students learn what careers they were interested in by arranging visits to various colleges, hospitals, and schools. With the help of Randy Rice, they both sponsored a personal growth group during the summer. “Many times we can see success in a student while he is still in high school,” said Richard Berner, director of guidance, “but sometimes it takes many years after graduation to see your work pay off.” 58 Which way are you headedask Jim Donnell and a teammate in the woods Far Right Scott Albright receives the stick with his finishing number from coach Tom Grammes as assistance coach Dan Cruttenden watches.

So Phillips Armstrong, teacher of this new course, found it necessary to arrange a bus tour of Whitehall in order to learn the boundaries and main streets enabling each student to draw a map of the township. Independent study was an efficient way to discover a student’s readiness to advance academically without a teacher constantly pushing the student. Charles Barhight, Accounting I and II teacher introduced this innovative method into his classes. His only requirement was that the students involved maintain a 93 average or better and keep up with the regular classes. “Twenty-five students began the year on independent study and by the fourth quarter only six remained,” stated Mr. Barhight. “I guess most students do need a little push now and then.” The “Age of Computers” has begun for entire companies are being run by computers. However, Carl Case and Allen Dangler discovered in their teaching that most students of trigonometry and problems of democracy could not believe just how much society relies upon the use of these machines. For this reason they scheduled a tour of the Whitehall Cement Compan) in which they viewed the computer room and other parts of the mill essential to the efficiency of the plant. “It was amazing how mechanized everything was,” said Linda Moyer. “Every department throughout the plant was monitored. Miraculously there weren’t monitors in the washrooms.” Health II classes requested that a few members of the Whitehall Emergency Squad be asked to give a quick course on first aid techniques.

Jabbering German students, numbering 25, visited Switzerland, Austria, and Germany for nine active days. Some of the major points of interest were the snowy Austrian Alps, the Rhine Falls, and the castle of King Ludwig. While Spain and Germany are visited every year, Russia was a new option for juniors and seniors. Although the price of the trip was raised $100 only one month before departure, all 23 students were still able to go. “Most Americans have many misconceptions of Russia.” philosiphiscd Andi Furney. “However the country and the people could be American. Most of the time it was hard to believe we were in a foreign country.

Senior Tami McCartt attained the lead role of Princess Winnifred, an unrefined blueblood. Before any marriage within the kingdom was allowed. Winnifred had to pass the queen’s unscrupulous “royal test.” The roles of domineering prude Queen Aggravain and her not-too-dynamic bachelor son Prince Dauntless were brought to life by talented juniors Cathy Harmonosky and Steve Macchiarella. Princess Winnifred's questionable royal heritage and worthiness were tested when Aggravain disturbed Winnifred’s slumber by placing one tiny pea beneath a stately bed 20 mattresses high.

This year, for the first time, while facing East Penn League competition the coaches worries were doubled. The only team not participating in the revised league was the football squad coached by Andrew Melosky. He had an outstanding year and was named coach of the Western Division for the annual LARC summer football game. He chose John Bendekovits, Randy Rice, Stan Luckenbill. and John Churetta as his assistants. Mrs. Rosemary Hoffman and Miss Pat Budd led their girls tennis and track teams to the only winning varsity slates, besides football. Being a new coach in a new league was nearly impossible for boys basketball coach Tom Szabo, who took Richard Tracy’s position. Although his season was dismal, he feels the future has possibilities. The swim teams both compiled less than hoped for records, but individual efforts made the seasons worthwhile for Miss Judy Emery, Miss Judy Piper, and Charles Plotsko. Again Miss Emery proved to be an accredited leader as she led the girls basketball and softball teams to respectable positions in their categories. Not faced with these problems Mrs. Judy Harakal, cheerleading instructor, coached and led three separate squads successfully through competition. 73 Field hockey coach Joceleyn Kaligis alertly watches for mistakes during a practice This was his last year as coach Matman Glenn Centloanza learns a new wrestling technique from Coach Robert Kratzer Mr Kratzer also taught Writing I and II classes.

Some of his favorites are two, ten, and twenty-five cent bills which are dated 1860 and, most important to him, is a 1557 Norwegian cent piece. “Foreign coins interest me the most,” he concluded, “because I learn a lot about the country, its history, and the culture of its people.” % FRESHMEN Top Row Mark MacLcllan.

Valedictorian was Brenda Crush who alone received six cash gifts, including one for outstanding work on The Owl of which she was editor during her junior and senior year. Salutatorian was Debbie Fciertag who also received the highest average in German award. Carol Gober, ranking third, picked up three awards including the scholastic award for girl athlete. Lesley Zaugg, Scholastic Scrimmage Team member and Whitehall's representative to the Presidential Classroom in Washington D. C., placed fourth. She also took the highest average in Spanish and excellence in Spanish awards. Highest ranking boy was Ettorc Coringrato, in fifth place, who was also the recipient of the highest average in social studies award. Artist Janice Krcmpasky received the sixth highest ranking. One of her contributions to Whitehall was a Bicentennial mural that decorates the entrance to the building among others. Seventh place was awarded to William Kochcr. He was given a medal in recognition of Outstanding Character and Patriotic Leadership. Eighth place resulted in a tie between Pamela Berner and Dale Brinker. The former received a cash award for the highest average in English while the latter was awarded the highest average in mathamatics prize. In the German National Honor Society and treasurer of the class, Barbara Maitski ranked ninth.

Inside Whitehall, Thomas Szabo's American Culture I classes were assigned projects that would, in the form of a report, poster, or in the construction of a related subject, recreate revolutionary memories. “The year of our country’s independence provided so much information for my students to research,” explained Mr. Szabo. A show dealing with colonial times was held in the planetarium in February. The program was planned by Dale Ott, planetarium director, and Michael Watson, art teacher. The middle school pupils set their own pace and were involved in every aspect of the Bicentennial while still learning essential information. “America Week” was celebrated the week of April 26. “We aimed to stress the past and the present,” replied Bicentennial chairman Ronald Johnson. A 285-member marching unit, consisting of the band, chorus, and flag twirlers performed for the public. The theme of their pageant was “The Roll Call of the States.” The Festival of the Colonies Band competition took place in June. A school band from each of the original 13 colonies was hosted by area band members. Catasauqua scheduled a Bicentennial week including tours of the George Taylor House, games, crafts and arts, and parades. In national events, Sara Lee baked a five-story chocolate cake and used five trucks to make the cake into Independence Hall. The cake was served to visitors at the Hall. Martin Beck, 56, departed June 1 on his 10-speed bicycle from Texarkansa, Arkansas, and traveled 1,700 miles to celebrate the Bicentennial. “It required some kind of spirit,” he commented, “and the spirit of '76 gave it to me.” This was the feeling of many who were motivated to celebrate America’s 200th birthday. H — I Merchants provide finances to explore HISTORY FELLOW7 PATRIOTS HEAR YE I I i HEAR YE, j i i i i The Whitehall staff offers its sincere thanks to the merchants whose interest in this community and its history made this memorable section of the yearbook possible. The history section was designed in this fashion so that it would convey these once-in-a-lifetime events but still not detract from the important occurrences that took place at Whitehall. The Bicentennial is no an event to take lightly, although celebrations across the nation took place all through the year. Perhaps none of the Bicentennial spectacles matched the gathering of 225 sailing ships from 30 nations that collected July 3 in A'ew York's Harbor. Included were 16 of the tallest ships in the world. The ships moved up the Hudson as far as the George Washington Bridge then down past Manhattan's imperious towers. Many men lost their lives fighting valiantly in the name of freedom, while women back in the colonies sewed clothing and nursed the injured back to life two hundred years ago. Starvation and infections ran rampid through the makeshift barracks since the infant nation was not prepared for war. Important happenings that have shaped our individual ways of life are covered with special emphasis placed on history closer to home but outstanding national events have also been recorded. Once again, merchants, we would like to extend our gratitude for the patriotism you have shown and financial assistance you have contributed to a worthy cause. The introductory and closing pages of this section contain special history that we thought should be covered but wasn't sponsored by any merchant in particular. 1 I 1 1 1 1 I 1 1 I H — 2 William Allen, founder of Allentown and once mayor of Philadelphia, acquired five thousand acres of land as a token of appreciation James Allen.

HANNA PENN When William Penn first set up his colony of Pennsylvania. he wrote a constitution which he called the First Frame of Government. It provided for a Pro-prietor. a Deputy Governor, a General Assembly, and a Provincial Council which was elected by the voters. He also set up a new system of laws called the Great Law for the settlement. Compared to England's criminal system, the laws were mild and humane. Treason and murder were the only crimes punishable by death. The result was that Pennsylvania achieved the most democratic government of any of the thirteen colonies. When he died in 1718 the settlers suffered a great loss. Through his death his wife Hanna Penn became governor. Pennsylvania's only woman governor. Hanna Penn managed the colony from 1718 to 1727. She was experienced when she inherited the proprietorship; she had managed it for her husband during the last six years of his life when he was stricken with paralysis. Attempting to fulfill Penn’s hopes for Pennsylvania, she ruled wisely and as long as she lived the affairs of the colony ran smoothly as colonists enjoyed their new found freedoms. The village of Hokendauqua was founded in 1854 by David Thomas who did more for the development of Hokendauqua with his business of the Thomas Iron Works than any other person. One hundred and forty-eight homes were built for the employees. Mr. Thomas is often referred to as the “Father of anthracite iron manufacture % % % ft $ H — 3 THE INDIAN MASSACRE After a successful attack on the settlers from nearby Allen Township, a band of Delaware Indians crossed the Lehigh River and entered Whitehall Township. The year was 1763. Traveling through forestland, the Indians reached the farm of John Jacob Mick ley where they found three of his children. Here nine-year-old Henry was killed instantly and Barbara, aged seven, was injured and remained in a senseless state until the following morning when she died. Both the children were scalped. The other child. II-year-old Peter, managed to evade the Indians. He escaped to the woods and hid there until the Indians had proceeded further on. Hearing the cries at a neighboring settlement. Peter ran to the house of his brother John Jacob Mickley Jr. and conveyed the story. Twenty settlers were killed during the massacre: many more might have died had it not been for Adam Deshier s fort which was approximately two miles away and afforded protection for the area. The settlers of Whitehall Township who were massacred were totally innocent of any wrongdoing towards the Indians. In fact, these settlers had treated them with much kindness. Dishonest and cruel treatment of the Redskins by a few had produced their wrath on all white settlers regardless of how kind they were. Some settlers were taken as captives by the Indians, and a few who had dark complexions were adopted within the tribe. Often these captives were children or women who were never accepted afterward by the settlers even though they were set free by the Indians.

Nestor's Sporting Goods Store recommends that we help conserve our environment with careful foresight and a better understanding of nature. 2510 MacArthur Road Whitehall Captive on a British prisoner-exchange boat. Francis Scott Key witnessed the bombardment of Fort McHenry, which guaded the Baltimore Harbor in the War of 1812. He watched the battle from the ship's deck. When the sun rose he was so elated to find that our flag was still there that he wrote a poem. After borrowing the melody from an English drinking tune, it then became published as a song. The Star Spangled Banner was adopted as our national anthem by Congress in 1931. WALTER’S (fenter 4515 Main Street Egypt H — 5 obody said it was going to be easy . The men who signed the Declaration of Independence knew the heavy responsibilities that came with independence. Each one was aware of the dangers and hardships that lay ahead. It was not a time for sunshine patriots then. It is not a time for sunshine patriots now. Democracy has never been an easy form of government to live under, because it is a government of the people. As such, it makes each of us responsible for the way it works. If a crisis develops, if the system falters, each of us shares in the blame. In times like this, the role of the newspaper becomes even more important to the democratic process. It is not our job just to report the news. We must reveal everything you need to know to understand the news. It is not our job to make judgments for you. We must give you the focts you need to make the right judgments for yourself. As responsible journalists, we have an obligation to inform you — fully, accurately and honestly. As responsible citizens, you have an obligation to use that information. Our country was born in a time of crisis. We have lived through dangerously troubled times throughout our history. If the democratic system fails, it will not be a crisis that kills it. It will be the ignorance and apathy of the people. As Thomas Paine said, Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must undergo the fatigue of supporting it. CALL-CHRONICLE NEWSPAPERS THE HELFR CH MILL H — 6 RED HILL SWM'iS AND LOAN 1240 Third Street Fullerton An important landmark still intact in Whitehall Town-ship is the H elf rich Mill. In 1750 Jacob Wertz patented the land surrounding the mill. Later it was sold to George Hoffman who built a log grist mill on this location. Originally the Jordan Creek was titled Blank’s Spring” after Christopher Blank who obtained the mill in 1766. Twenty-four years later Blank sold the land. mill, and water rights to his son George. Peter Grim became the next owner and erected a two-story stone mill on the site of the original. Grim's daughter inherited the mill, and after her death the property was purchased by Reuben Helfrich in 1872. He then established a lucrative business, operating the mill until his death in 1890. At this time the mill became known as H elf rich's Mill and the spring was christened H elf rich's Springs, the name by which it is still known today. This was the last grist mill to be run by a large and constant flow of water from a spring without a supply basin. It ran on this supply for more than 160 years. The mill is now used as a warehouse for Whitehall Township. A recently formed environmental group is attempting to use the mill for a museum. Transportation has always been a vital link in the westward expansion of this country. In 1725 farmers from Conestoga developed a functional and sturdy wagon with large iron rimmed wheels and a high, rounded canvas roof These wagons played an important role in carrying ammunition and troops during the Revolutionary War. The same care early settlers gave to the Conestoga Wagon 200 years ago is provided to every car at ACP. 2126 MacArthur Road Whitehall Spacious and grand describe William Penn's famous country estate.

GUMKotfa - 08 North Tenth Street I Allentown MINUTEMEN In the years before the Revolutionary War. volunteers were organized into small bands of military companies and were trained to shoot and bear arms. They went about their daily business as farmers, bakers, and almost every other occupation. But at any time, they could expect to be called from their jobs and give their lives for their country. And they did. They were prepared and willing to fight at a minute’s notice.’’ For this reason they were called minutemen. Throughout the war. they fought courageously against difficult odds. The Massachusetts regiment in particular exhibited bravery and loyalty that made them famous through the colonies and served as an example for the thousands of untrained patriots during the war. An interesting point is that these men were just ordinary Americans, none outstanding or well-known, but without them the Revolutionary War would have had a drastically different outcome.

EBERHARDT 4344 Main Street Whitehall The main historical site in Whitehall Township is the Troxell-Steckel house and farm museum in Egypt. Of the early settlements in Whitehall was John Troxell’s 250 acres of land, warranted in 1737. During 1756. John Peter Troxell obtained his father's land and built a large two and a half story stone house. Two years later Troxell built a stone barn which was torn down in 1874. The house was marked with a German blessing above the door which is translated ”God protect this house from all danger. Lead our souls to heaven.” In 1768 Troxell sold the property, including the house and 410 acres of land, to Peter Steckel. The property stayed in the Steckel lineage until 1904. Abraham Steckel. a nationally famous engineer, purchased the property and presented it to the Lehigh County Historical Society in 1942 in memory of his ancestors. It has been restored and is now open as a museum during the summer months. Historians agree that the first permanent settlement in Northampton County was the Irish settle-ment that was started about 1728 by James Craig. These Presbyterian Scotch-Irish settlers came to Pennsylvania seeking freedom from religious persecution. They settled on the land between the Catasauqua and Hokendauqua creeks. This land was procured by the Penns in 1737 through the Walking Purchase and then 5.000 acres were sold to William Allen. James Craig obtained a deed for 250 acres from Allen. After the Revolution. Allen’s heirs were forced by Penn’s heirs to collect the ground rents on the land the Scotch-Irish had bought in the 1730s and AOs. The words ”subject to ground rents” had appearea in the original deeds but prior to the Revolution. Allen, a Tory, had collected none. Rather than pay for the land again, the Scotch-Irish became merchants or moved westward. Soon afterwards the Pennsylvania Germans moved into the fertile land that is Northampton County, and were more successful than their predecessors.

George Taylor assured himself of a place in the annals of American History when he represented Pennsylvania in the Second Continental Congress and became a signer of the Declaration of Independence. A man with many interests, he was a superior iron master and architect. He was also extremely active in dealing with Indians. Through him, many treaties were negotiated In 1768, he built the Taylor Mansion a few miles north of Allentown. The tract of land he purchased, which is located along the Lehigh River, had been previously owned by the wealthy and influential William Penn family, settlers of our state. The architecture of the beautiful home is a fine example of the Italian- Villa style. It was built as a summer manor. The interior is filled with rich, dark paneling and wood trim. An unusual touch, this aspect made it unique in its day. During 1799 Colonel David Deshler took the mansion for his place of residence. Deshler was a very wealthy supporter of the Revolutinary War who lent the newly formed government large amounts of money. Without his support, this infant nation might not have survived its early years of democracy. Because of the importance the early owners played in the beginning of the country, the George Taylor Mansion was designated a National Historic landmark in 1972 The George Taylor Mansion is one of the few dwelling places of Pennsylvania's important figures still standing. Lehigh County Historical Society has preserved it and opened it to the public.

THE WALKING PURCHASE At exactly 6 a.m. September 19. 1737 Sheriff Timothy Smith gave the signal that would trigger the Walking Purchase of Pennsylvania. The participants included Edward Marshall. James Yates, and Solomon Jennings who began the walk from a large chestnut tree on the new Durham Road. As far as these men could walk in a day and a half would be as far as the white man's land would be extended into Indian territory. These walkers were accompanied by three Indians who were to insure that the men were not cheating throughout the 'walk.” In the beginning of the walk” Yates was leading the other participants, with Marshall and Jennings behind. Jennings in particular had a difficult time remaining in the race and after 18 miles he collapsed on the road and was omitted from the walk” At Gallows Hill the walkers left the road and began to follow an Indian path towards Hellertown. NORTHAMPTON - FULLERTON BATH - MAHONING VALLEY BETHLEHEM - SOUTH EASTON. Throughout the race, the Indians angrily protested that the men were running, and that they refused to rest. In Northampton County they disbanded bitterly from the walk” and reported to their tribe. Overall Marshall completed the walk by covering 65 miles in 18 hours. Yates was eliminated when he fell in a river and became seriously ill. The Deed of 1686 was allegedly signed by William Penn and three Indian chiefs of the Delawares. This deed was displayed by Thomas Penn some 50 years after the walk occurred. However, many historians believe this deed was actually a hoax since Penn admitted the deed was a copy and the original was never recorded.

For a long time it was known as Schreibers. It was then later referred to as the Lehigh Valley, because the Lehigh Valley Iron Furnaces were located here. Finally it changed to Kolapichka meaning Coplay in Indian terms. The borough of Coplay is situated along the I ehigh River. It's a part of the 400 acres of land John Jacob Schreiber bought in 1740. For many years the only settlement was the Jacob, later the Owen Schrieber. homestead. In 1864 the borough was formed out of a part of Whitehall Township. Gradually Coplay changed from a farming area into an industrial community due to the birth of the cement workers. The company started the change by bringing in workers and building homes for them. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + FIRST RADIO BROADCAST With the help of Father Murgal and Dr. Conrad, stations KDKA in Pittsburgh and WWJ in Detroit held their first radio broadcasts in 1920.

During the 1930s and 1940s. radio was filled with the voices of famous performers, singers, and comedians such as Bing Crosby. Kate Smith, Eddie Cantor. Burns and Allen, Ed Wynn. Rudy Vallee, Jack Benny, the ventriloquist Edgar Bergen with his dummy. Charlie McCarthy and. of course, the Shadow.

The town of Siegfried, on the east hank of the l high, was named for Colonel John Siegfried, a colonel in the Revolutionary Army. George Washington depended upon him in military matters pertaining to Northampton County. Later Siegfried was instrumental in the collection of blankets and supplies for Washington's men at Valley Forge during the winter of 1777-78. Colonel Siegfried first moved to the west bank of the Lehigh about 1770 and operated a thriving tavern and ferry business. Slemton was named after George H. Stem who laid out the town in 1867. Stem and Co., later incorporated as Lehigh Car Manufacturing Works, built extensive shops in an area now covered by railroad tracks.

Basic necessities were obviously seriously lacking and it was difficult to raise volunteers. Few able bodies men were anxious to join an army to risk their lives for a country whose very existence was uncertain. On the other hand, the British had plenty of gold. They bought what they needed from farmers and merchants who lacked confidence in the patriot cause or Tories who directly opposed it. One of the most vivid examples of the uneven distribution of funds was shown when the British wined and dined in Philadelphia during the winter of 1777-78 while Washington's troops almost perished at Valley Forge Voluntary contributions to the war effort were not sufficient. Congress lacked the power to raise money by taxing colonists, and the colonies, hardpressed themselves could not be depended upon. vania rifle and the Conestoga wagons to haul supplies. Iron, charcoal, sulphur, and saltpeter for gunpowder were donated in large amounts. Three wealthy men from Pennsylvania stood out through their generosity to the war effort. Robert Morris. a Philadelphia merchant and signer of the Declaration of Independence, was often called Financier of the Revolution because of his help in borrowing money from France and Holland and giving of his own money and time. Also instrumental in the war effort was Samuel Wether-ill. He spent a large part of his fortune outfitting the Continental army with uniforms. Haym Solomon was an influential Jewish merchant from Philadelphia. He arranged loans for the new nation and helped relieve the shortage of acceptable currency by issuing notes based on his own credit. Government loans were given by him and he equipped several military units. His aid helped to save the national government from bankruptcy in its crucial first years.

These men were often called upon to be surgeons as well. One common practice a barber performed was bloodletting. By either applying medicinal leeches or bleeding his patients, the ,doctor supposedly lowered fevers, cured diseases, and healed bruises. Medicinal leeches do contain a blood thinning factor, but when used for curing diseases, leeches just weaken the victim. During this time, bloodletting was an important but largely useless part of medicine. The barber pole outside the shop has a very interesting story behind it. It is a white cylinder wth a red stripe painted on a diagonal around it. As the pole revolved, it gave the appearance that red stripe was moving downward. This was once used to publicize the bloodletting practice, the red symbolizing blood flowing. Although barbers no longer perform this process, the pole is still displayed in front of the barbershop but it used mostly for decoration. 581 Whitehall Mall Whitehall GENERAL STORE At the time of the country’s birth, marketing was a family affair. The entire family would come to the market if just to shop around and chat with their neighbors. Shopping was usually done once a week and was eagerly anticipated by all. Because communities were small everyone was acquainted with each other. Customers were unhurried and received quality merchandise and great service because of the personal contact the owner had with his buyers. The store owner always made sure that his customers got the best. He had to. People who shopped in his store were his friends and he tried to fulfill their needs. Often in the winter, the men would congregate around the large, potbellied stove and would discuss everything from the weather to politics. The same personal touch flourishes at Kotsch’s Market.

H — 21 NAMING OF WHITEHALL Research shows that historians do not agree on how Whitehall Township was named. According to one version, the Grouse Hall story was originated by M S. Henry who wrote the ‘ History of the Lehigh County ” in I860. l.ynford Lardner of Philadelphia built Grouse Hall, a hunting lodge, about 1740 near the Jordan and Cedar creeks. The exact location is still in doubt but most agree it would now be in South Whitehall Township. Supposedly, because the lodge was painted white the “common people of the region” called it White Hall and it was from this that Whitehall was taken. Another version, the simplest explanation, says that it was named for Whitehall. England, by the English officials of the county. A third version explains that Whitehall was first settled chiefly by Swiss colonists. The first records of the Egypt church date back to 1734 and in 1736 Johan Heinrich Goetschi, the boy preacher was named. He came from a place in Switzerland called Berneck in Withal. What would have been more natural than for the settlers to call the territory of their n W home Withal, the same as their pastor came from in Europe?

EARLY FORMS OF TRAVEL Within the Lehigh Valley there existed a maze of trails and paths blazed by Indian tribes and early settlers. The Appalachan Trail which still exists on the eastern coast is living proof of this. In 1764 the Moravian Village in Bethlehem began a new type of transporation which was introduced on the Lehigh River. Irene was a fiatboat launched on the river and began another medium of trade besides the horse and wagon. The first public service offered in colonial America was in 1763 where George Klein established the Historic Stage Wagon. which made weekly trips between Bethlehem and Philadelphia. Later the railroad became a valuable means of transportation in the Lehigh Valley after 1865 when the Allentown Passenger Railways Company began. In 1912 trolleys became popular but were short lived after the automobile and bus were born. Since the gas shortage of 1975 motorcycles have become a popular way of commuting in the Lehigh Valley.

These hardy people could grow crops on even worn out land, but most local properties such as the TroxelTSteckel. Mickley. and Kohler farms were developed on the fertile soil of Lehigh Valley. The farmer regarded his barn more highly than his house. The barn housed his animals, grain, and served as a storage place. Two types of barns were popular — the stone wall barn and the Swiss bank barn. The stone wall was usually constructed of fteldstone or limestone for durability. Bank barns consisted of two stories. The lower level housed the animals and the upper level contained hay. straw, grain bins, and the threshing floor. The second floor was reached through a ramp of earth built against the wall. When paint was used, reddish brown became the typical barn color, with doors, window frames, and other openings trimmed with bands of white for contrast. Traditional folk art designs decorated many German barns. These decorations, once called barn stars, are now referred to as hex signs because of their qualities. They were thought to keep lightning from striking the barns and the animals from being bewitched or ferhexed. These unique hex signs attract people from all over the nation to these farms.

The first one. “Penn” refers to William Penn’s father and the second, ”sylvaniais a Latin word meaning woodlands. Penn bought the tract of land Penn's woods” we now know as Penn-sylvani as a haven for his Quaker friends. Penn had originally planned to call his piece of land Sew Wales since it resembled the country, but he was refused. So Penn’s colony became known as Pennsylvania.

In “Ancedotes of The Revolution” it’s purported that as his forces marched out of Yorktown. their band insolently played “The World Turned Up-side Down.” The claim cannot be proven but several tunes by that name were popular at the time of the Revolution. and it is certain that music was played during the surrender ceremonies. Wilson Blockhouse Div. U. S. Steel Northampton The Wilson Blockhouse is the only surviving fort in Northampton County from the Indian Wars before the Revolution. It was built by Hugh Wilson beside the Hokendauqua Creek. He erected a mill and house in approximately 1749. The exact date of the building of the fort is unknown. The entrance to the blockhouse is almost totally concealed by a large hill adjacent to the door. The other seven walls contain one rifle slot each. The small octogonal structure could probably have held only the immediate family of the builder and was erected because the nearest frontier fort. Fort Ralston, was over five miles away. Fort Ralston was purchased in 1883 by John Ralston for William Allen. The colonists were prompted by Indian attacks such as the Pontiac rebellion in 1755 to build forts and to take refuge in them intermittently from 1763 to 1765. Further incidents involving hostile Indians were provoked by the British and Tories during the Revolution when they allied with Indians against the patriots. Development Of Stores As a young man. Frank Winfield Woolworth worked as a clerk in various stores in New York City. In 1878 he heard of a store with a counter at which only five cent articles were sold and persuaded his manager to employ this selling technique. The novelty was popular so he decided to go into business for himself His first store in Lancaster. Pennsylvania prospered and he expanded his business into a chain of stores. In 1912 he incorporated the stores under one name, the F. W. Woolworth Company. Because of the quantity of articles sold. Woolworth was able to buy them cheaper, and made a profit while lowering the prices for the public. Many of his articles were made especially for Wool-worth stores. The stores became known as five and ten cent stores. With his headquarters at the Woolworth Building in New York City, for many years the tallest building in the world, he continued to expand throughout America, even into Canada. A pioneer in the industrial age. Frank Woolworth advocated mass production and brought to thousands a new aspect in merchandising. IQ Woolworth’s first store. Lancaster. Pennsylvania. 1879.

Established in 1866 by Adam Woolever. Esaias Rehrig, and D.O. Saylor, the Coplay Cement Company was profitable and expanded to include additional kilns and new opened quarries. In 1872 Saylor. president of the company, discovered a process by which a much improved cement could be manufactured. The new cement was named Anchor Cement. A year later the company began producing Portland Cement. In 1884. a group of Mew York businessmen purchased land on the Lehigh River between Coplay and Whitehall and organized the Lehigh Portland Cement Company. The Egypt development was spurred by the start of the cement industry in Coplay. The American Portland Cement Company erected the Egypt plant through promoter Christian Knauss. The company’s name was later changed to American Cement Company, and again renamed the Giant Portland Cement Company. A few years ago it was purchased by Coplay Cement.

David Deshler s accomplishment that stimulated business ranged from building the first house in Allentown to opening the first shop, the first grist-mill, and the first saw-mill in the area. These businesses were essential to any town, giving Deshler prominence and importance in the community. Through his involvement in the Northampton County Committee of Observation he was chosen to be at the Provincial Conference of 1776 where he was the delegate in Carpenter's Hall. Philadelphia. All 13 colonies held conventions like Pennsylvania’s which led to the Declaration of Independence. Deshler also helped finance the Federal Treasury during the Revolutionary War and took part as a commisionary of supplies. In 1788 Deshler was a representative at the convention in which Pennsylvania ratified the Constitution of the United States. Colonel Deshler was retired at the time and was residing at the George Taylor home which he bought in 1782 and is now a historical landmark. if if if if af af if if af if if if af if if if if af if if if if if .._______, _ if k k k k k k k k k k k k k ★ k k k k kk Winslow Homer illustrated the educational environment of the late 1800s in the one-room wooden schoolhouse across rural America in this print.

Combined choirs and dramatic groups entertained spectators and revived memories from 200 years ago. Colonial costume balls and parties filled February taking the winter chill away from many. A program begun in March, nicknamed the Johnny Horizon '76, was designed to clean up America for its 200th birthday. Beginning in spring were demonstrations of colonial Easters accompanied by traditional tree plantings. May was packed with parades, salutes, and shows of patriotism while June, inching closer to the important month, had Bicentennial weeks in many communities which consisted of tours and jamborees. Feasts, festivals, and services commemorated our nation’s 200th birthday. In the national aspect the Bicentennial Wagon Train pilgrimage carrying 2,000 persons from all 50 states concluded July 3 at Valley Forge which was named by President Ford as a national park July 4. Many members of the pilgrimage camped overnight on the grounds of Lehigh County Community College before heading to their destination. Highlights of September included the Liberty Bell Trek, 19-25, an International Ox Pull Parade with teams from Maine and Nova Scotia participating the 25th and 26th, and an ox roast that was provided for the community the 27th. The grand finale to celebrations was an explosive display of enthusiasm in the form of fireworks. Allen and Liberty High School stadiums were jammed with spectators who enjoyed the enlightening display. An estimated 55,000 people attended the festivities. o aXJ m ’?76 ! 1 ! I ! I ! !

Chart-topping records had great influence on the style of steps, obvious by the Whitehall dances which were crammed with students doing the “hustle, ’ the “boogie,” and the shoulder-to-toe “bump.” “Kids have more opportunities to learn different movements,” explained Sue Matthews, “since they aren’t confined to just watching ‘American Bandstand’ on TV.” Area discotheques, youth dances, and dance marathons have also opened a new variety of places for dance-lovers to go.

He became inspired by this feat when he attended a circus five years ago. Tom began juggling with three golf balls, then three hoops, progressing to three light bulbs. Presently he's working to master flaming sticks. Tom was employed as an entertainer for the PTA, Boy Scouts, and Girl Scouts, and he appeared at the Westgate Mall in a magic show.

Ten students of world cultures represented Tanzania and Portugal. “It was really some experience,” commented Celeste Tauber, a Tanzanian delegate. “I met kids from so many schools and learned tons more about world affairs, it is worth attending.” Kim Zaugg and Bill Kocher were selected from the political science and economics classes to visit Washington D.C. and to participate in the Presidential Classroom, an annual seminar developed to acquaint teenagers with national politics. Here they spoke informally to several senators and other politicians. “We saw so many of the government buildings and even attended a few of the Congressional Committee meetings of national fame,” said Kim, “that we had a good taste of political life and its stratified workings.” Spanish III students Beryl Backus, Karen Reichl, and Debbie Roadarmel acted out and filmed their own dramatization of several short stories read and summarized in class. “I never had so much fun compared to this,” laughed Karen, “and while the film was less than amateurish it was good practice in using conversational Spanish.” Elementary students are entertained by actors and actresses Right: Interior decorators Annette Bellange and Lorraine Silvius check carpet samples for quality and price.

Pat Boyer was crowned queen by last year’s monarch Shelly Feldman. Seven runnersup in the queen’s court were Kelly Brennen, Tami Ebcrhardt, Anita Groller, Judy Raub. Pat Kubik, Cindy Heidenwolf, and Donna Sinkovits. “Feelings,” a ballad popularized by singer Morris Albert, was the song for this formal at the Masonic Temple. Class president Sue Wuchtcr, serving as master of ceremonies, named the queen and a local group “Fresh” supplied the evening's music. “The romantic theme,” said Sue, “and all the decorations made it beautiful.” Michael Nestleroth, adviser, and Miss Linda Spector assisted the executive committee with the majority of prom arrangements.

Credited with handling decorations for the event were Diane MacLaughlin and Gail Himmelwright. Booklets were composed and distributed to help couples remember the night. Due to the lack of funds the senior class didn't sponsor a post prom gathering. Connie Wechsler was named queen and crowned by her successor Kathy Alesick. It was rumored that some faculty and administration members declined invitations to the event due to graduates’ antics at commencement.

Staff works overtime on PUBLICATIONS Due to a small number of writers, and the special design of the book, the staff stayed into the sweltry, hot days of June beginning and ending the yearbook. Editor of the book was Cathy Robertson, and associate editors were Val Skripek and Brenda Crush. Contrary to popular belief, the Whitehall did not go stars and stripes crazy but was designed to keep revolutionary memories confined to the ads section. “If you haven't guessed by now, celebration was chosen as the theme,” revealed Cathy. “I picked it because it appropriately represented the serious accomplishments and the lighter side of the classroom. It was also timely since the Bicentennial's being celebrated.” she added. A yearbook convention was held at Columbia University in October and was attended by Cathy, Val, Berni Cherski, Suzanne Wuscher, Debbie Tisdale, and Miss Marjorie Lazarus, adviser.

Unfortunately, cleaning was next. ho would believe the Fonz, Horshak, and Kotter were used to bring across certain points in the classroom? Well, in order to escape the drudgery of grammar, Mrs. Mary Jane Shumbcrgcr’s German IV class presented and taped its own version of “Welcome Back Kotter” complete with commercials. But there was one catch, they were all in German. “After four years of German we deserved the break,” commented Val Skripek. “It was fun and we really learned. We had to apply four years of vocabulary and structure to bring out the humorous points.” The Fonz, alias Dan Guzenski, appeared in a short psychology skit of “Happy Days.” Mrs. Margaret Price assigned the performance of these skits to point out the usage of defense mechanisms in every day life. Blanket-wrapped Don Smith and fashion conscious Judy Raub, both participants in Phillips Armstrong’s new geography class, certainly displayed great contrast when they were temporarily unable to use manufactured articles, except necessities. Luckily Judy sewed, but poor Don received many strange looks. After all, how many students wander through the halls dressed in a blanket? Mrs. Lucretia Muhlhausen designed two simulated businesses for her classes in clerical office practice. They were run like typical offices in the industrial world. In fact, when applying for a job the students were considered experienced secretaries. “I grade the participants on their work,” remarked Mrs. Muhlhausen, and also on appearance, neatness, dress, manners, ability to get along with their co-workers, and willingness to accept responsibilities.” What better way to learn about German foods than to eat them in a restaurant? Well, since there were no local restaurants available, German III students Jayne Miller, Linda Moyer, Coleen Perl, Edie Flueso, Yvonne Mitcho, and Merry Huber put on a comedy skit.

Thirteen seniors from St. Francis de Sales College participated in the play and taught afternoon classes in directing, makeup, acting, and costuming. “I really enjoyed the directing class because Michele McLaughlin and I played Felix and Oscar from the “Odd Couple,” remarked Sue Wuscher, “while everyone else played the part of directors.” Mrs. Edna Young’s English classes found it was not so easy to be a teacher since each week a new student became “teacher of the week.” This forced him or her to find vocabulary words, develop quizzes, and formulate a way of getting information across to classmates. It made everyone learn how hard it is to anticipate the reaction of students to material which is presented.

In January Dave was selected as Whitehall's representative in the Scholar-Athlete competition of the Lehigh Valley. “I was very proud of this honor, commented Dave, and I hope I can continue to do as well in college, both on the field and in the classroom. The six-foot three, 212-pounder was an offensive tackle in varsity gridiron action until a leg injury sidelined him early in the season. He was also an asset to the track team in the shot put event.

Cathy died of a viral infection of the heart in July, 1973 following her freshman year. She developed her natural talents in music and art by playing the saxaphone in the Marching Zephyr Band, and achieving the Gold Key and Certificate of Merit in a national high school art exhibition. Cathy dreamed of a career as an art teacher someday, and in the field of music she had an early start at the age of nine with an organ recital in Allentown. Her years at Whitehall, though shortened, were happy ones and friends who were left behind matured to realize that death is a part of everyday life and must be accepted even with all the suffering that accompanies it.

She was a MZB trumpeter throughout high school and one of her responsibilities was leading enthusiastic Zephyr fans in the traditional National Anthem during basketball season. Besides being a member of the school chorus, Terry auditioned for district and regional bands, and was chosen along with three others. “Both districts and regionals were fun, even though there was a lot of work involved, concluded Terry. “But I had to be a member of our high school band first, which was my most treasured memory of all.

Playing nearly errorless ball. the Zephyrettes scored three runs in the bottom of the fifth inning to put the game away. Anna Lagler belted two singles and a double with Jami Simmons rapping out two hits and two RBls. The Zephyrettes fought a strong battle with Parkland although they lost 5-3. First baseman Lori Lakatosh went 2-4 with three RBls and a triple. The girls pulled off a 7-6 upset victory over Emmaus with a five-run last inning rally. Lagler opened Whitehall's half of the seventh with a walk and was sacrificed to second by Carolyn Bartoni. Consecutive hits by Marsha Becker, Lakatosh, and Simmons produced three runs before Charlene Powell unleashed a run-scoring triple and later scored on a passed ball to give the Zephyrettes the margin. Lagler led the team in batting for the second straight year, averaging .417 followed by Lakatosh with a .378 and Cheryl Haberstroh with a .360. SOFTBALL — Front Row Jami Simmons.

Elnitsky was also the only Zephyr merman to compete at States where he nabbed fourth place in the 100 butterfly with a :53.1 timing. He qualified for states by taking second place finishes in the 200 individual medley and the 100 butterfly at the district meet. The Zephyrs picked up their only win of the season in a 99-72 defeat of Saucon Valley. Scott Edwards was a double winner taking the 50 freestyle and the 100 backstroke as was his teammate, Ted Williams, who grabbed the 200 and 500 freestyles. Elnitsky took firsts in his two specialties — the 200 IM and the 100 butterfly. In the final meet of the season. Liberty downed the mermen 124-45.

Top District finishers besides Gall were Mike Lelko, third in the two-mile; Dean Haberstroh, fourth in the high jump; Scott Edwards, fifth in the 120 high hurdles, and Dave Rarig, fifth in the javelin. Sub-par performances at the EPL meet brought about a disappointing 27 point total for a tenth place standing. Whitehall took all its points in the field events. The cindermen set two new records in a 95-55 romp against Phillipsburg. Lelko set a Whitehall track record in the two-mile run with a time of 9:46.2 while Gall broke field and school marks with a heave of 168’5” in the discus for the EPL's top performance of the season. Edwards and Matt Millcn also set new school and track standards in a losing effort against Easton 96-54. Millen’s toss of 170’9“ in the javelin was good enough for record while Edwards’ time of 1:44.6 in 330 intermediate hurdles set another. TRACK — Front Row: Jim O’Donnell. David Howells. Bob Fischer.

PERSONAL ACHIEVEMENTS AND DISCOVERIES ... 219 Contestants for the title of M iss Lehigh Valley and Miss Slovak proved their courage by risking the disappointment of losing and the criticisms of envious classmates. Other students overcame physical handicaps and strived to keep up with their classmates. stereotypes were shattered as girls discovered their talents and guys struggled to win the battle of the sexes. Helen Marvany adequately filled the position of an auto mechanic and female tracksters began training in the previously masculine “muscle factory. 221 Enthusiasm for living and willingness to take on new ventures and objectives was certainly evident. Studies in Russian culture sparked an interest that resulted in 23 students traveling across the world to the Soviet Union. Energy was channeled by active choir members into a summer choir while world-conscious youth fasted Wednesdays during Lent and donated proceeds to the Rice Bowl program. Teams’ spirts weren’t dulled even though fate entered several gridders’ lives and left them sidelined. . .. JOYS OF A FRIEND . . . 223 Essential to being happy is the feeling of acceptance. Friends were needed to pass the time in study hall and in between classes as much as for confidence and support. Strong ties were made through working together on the yearbook or rehearsing for the senior class play. Friendships were not strictly limited to the student population. Edgar Steckel’s fan club threw a welcome back party after his long absence. There was little chance of being lonely since 1,550 students were enrolled at Whitehall. 224 REACHING GOALS AND ADVANCING. Whitehall has provided the experiences, the lessons, the contests, a place to grow physically and mentally, and the challenges for each individual to celebrate the fulfillment of big and small expectations, seriously or hilariously, alone or in a crowd.
