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.
