This battle implement used in the Civil War was one of the sights the juniors saw on their trip to Gettysburg. 4 Refreshment time at Sophomore Hop. 'potvetwnd A new gymnasium, an extensive renovation and expansion program, a diversified curriculum—all these evidence the immediate progress which“Our School” has made in the last year. What does all this mean to us? To the student, it provides a challenge for furthering his search for knowledge; not only for personal gains but also for the benefit of others. To the faculty, it means, improved facilities with which they may expand their teaching techniques in order to achieve the pursuit of excellence. To the administration, it means, providing each student with the proper opportunity to prepare for his or her future. To realize to its fullest this betterment of “Our School”, the administration, the faculty, and the students are united in the classroom, on the sport’s field, and in social and extra-curricular activities. “Our School” has been our home away from home for six years. It has opened to us the fields of scholarship, leadership, service, citizenship, and friendship. For these reasons we have chosen ‘‘Our School” as the theme for our memorable book. This theme is based on the play “Our Town” by Thornton Wilder in which we witness the everyday happenings and cooperation in a small community. 5 Dedication We, the graduating class of 1961, dedicate our edition of Les Memoires to Mr. Charles Schaeffer. We have bestowed this honor upon Mr. Schaeffer, because he has been a true teacher in every sense of the word. He has not only taught us mathematics; but he has also taught us how to be good citizens. He has always been a friend to everyone and has always been willing to give his time to help a troubled student. Mr. Schaeffer has been a member of the Wilson Borough High School faculty for seven years. During this time, he had a leave of absence allowing him to go to the University of Chicago under a National Science Foundation Grant. While he was gone, Mr. Schaeffer was missed by the students. We were all very happy to know that he would be back with us soon. After we graduate, Mr. Schaeffer, you will be one of the memories that will linger in our minds. Wherever you go and whatever you do may God be with you.

She attended a commercial school until she left for the United States. Among her favorite pastimes in Switzerland were going to the mountains, skiing, and swimming. In July Annemarie left for America on the liner, Af.S. Seven Seas along with 1300 other foreign exchange students.

In the school, itself, Annemarie enjoys the classes of American History and Biology. When she was asked, “What do you think of America?” She replied: “When I first came to the United States, I was amazed how much dirt there was in a big city such as New York. This gave me a prejudiced feeling. But when I saw the private homes here I was surprised to see the houses so clean and neat, and all the people so friendly. I think this is just about the nicest thing about the United States, the friendliness of the people. To make a long story short, I love the United States and her people.” 51 Commencement speakers: Bob Aber, Karen Norvig, George Heitezman, Charleyne Potter, Frank Zingonc OFFICERS J. MeFeeley, D.

The next week we entertained a highly rated Gov. Mifflin team. Again the Warriors were the underdogs, but battled the Mustangs to a 0-0 tie at half time. At the beginning of the third period, Roger Boger, the quarterback, threw a long pass to end, Tony Mentesana for the first score of the game and a 7-0 lead. In the dying minutes of the next quarter Mifflin scored on a screen pass to gain a 7-7 tie. Finally with two minutes remaining in the final period, Wilson drove to the three-yard line, and on a fourth down Boger went back to pass; finding no receivers open, he bulled his way over for the winning tally and our second victory. Left halfback, Joe Matyas (26) is brought down after a run-back in Bangor game. This year’s highly-esteemed football team brought home the Lehigh-Northampton League crown for the first time in over five years. Although, picked at the beginning of the season to win one game, our Warriors brought home a 7-3 record. Head coach, Paul Opitz and assistants, Fred Eisenhard and Wayne Grube can feel extremely proud of this year’s showing. For the first game our highly-spirited Warriors ventured to Reading to engage Wilson of Westlawn. Out-manned and outweighed, our Warriors pushed West-lawn around for three quarters, but could not manage a score. In the closing minutes of the game, linebacker and co-captain, Keith Metier pulled a desperate West-lawn pass out of the air and raced fifty-six yards for the winning score. Our boys came back home heros, for this was the first time in twelve years that we had won an opening game. Dick Grube plunges for three yard gain and touchdown during East Stroudsburg game. Then came our first league game with Hellertown at Hellertown. For the third time the Warriors were the underdogs. Hellertown scored the first time they got the ir hands on the ball, when we fumbled on the ensuing kickoff. Finally we got moving and drove to the twelve-yard line where from there Tom Dingle scored and Dick Grube kicked the extra point for a 7-6 advantage at halftime. The Warriors exploded in the second half to score three times on runs by Mammano of forty-five and one yards, and Grube of one yard. This capped our third straight win, 27-6. Then disaster struck; we lost. We were host to a great Bangor High team and were defeated 13-7. Our only score came on a fifty-two yard run by Dingle. Our Warriors had a bad day and all the breaks seemed to be against us. 74 Our second straight loss came at the hands of Palmer-ton, by a 21-6 score, with Mammano making our only tally. Finally our losing streak ended when the Warriors smacked East Stroudsburg, 27-6. Our first score came when halfback, Joe Matyas took a seventeen-yard pass from quarterback, Boger in the end 2one. Grube then took on the brunt of the attack and scored twice with runs of three and nine yards; he also kicked three extra points. Then the Cavaliers scored when a halfback dashed 85 yards to a T.D. This was the longest run that any opponent offered all year. With the football machine still rolling, Wilson traveled to Pen Argyl to blank the Green Wave 21-0. Mammano scored on runs of two and thirty yards, while Dingle scored on a twenty-nine yard run. Halfback Butch Mammano receives pass from quarterback Roger Boger in Bangor game. Our last game was played at Cottingham Stadium when we played host to an undefeated Nazereth team. But this day our Warriors could do no wrong, and we defeated the Blue Eagles 33-14 before 10,000 fans. Along with this terrific victory went the prized L-N trophy. The Blue and Gold dominated the game from the word “GO”. We scored three times in the first half with Grube and Metier, Grube scoring twice. The score at halftime was 19-7, with Nazareth scoring in the last seconds with a pass. In the second half, Dingle and Grube finished out our scoring with Nazareth adding a final tally in the dying seconds. Throughout the year Wilson compiled a total of 2068 yards rushing against the opponents’ 1038. In the passing department we out-threw our opponents 657 yards to 649. In the first downs we also came out on top, 97 to 90. Thus ended a very successful season for the Warriors of Wilson. Quarterback, Roger Boger (37) eludes Bangor players by the helpful blocks of Tom Dingle (23) and Dick Grube (55). Still going strong, our Warriors defeated Parkland, 26-6, behind the able signal calling of Boger. Our first goal came on a blocked punt by Bob Adams who scooped up the ball and scampered fifteen yards to paydirt. Also, Mammano scored twice, and Dan Christian once. The entire second half was played by the junior and sophomores who will comprise next year’s team. For the ninth game Wilson entertained a strong Emmaus team. There was a let down before the game and the Warriors lost 12-6, with Christian scoring the only touchdown.

The squad consisted of 16 letter winners including 8 seniors. The seniors are co-captains Fred Gibbs and Barry Young, also Matt Gualano, Don Hazelton, Ron Hazelton, Vic Kurilko, Barry Hoskins and Bill Long. Although the team does not sport a winning record, they showed much improvement dropping some of their games by only one point. The highlights of the season were when our “hooters” faced the powerful Bethlehem squad, the winner of 30 straight games and also league champ, on our home field. The mighty Warriors offered a strong battle, but pulled the bottom of a 1-0 score. The teams gave a repeat performance at the Bethlehem field. The leading scores were juniors, George Hrymack and Tom DiSante. The team concluded the season with a final record of one tie and nine losses.

Co-captain, Bill Baker, Chip Bachman, Bob Fulton, Joe Matyas, and Barry Sciplc were the seniors on the squad. They were ably managed by senior, Dave Boyer. The Warriors initiated the new gym properly by defeating Palmerton 56 to 48. The Warriors then fell prey to Dieruff High School, but we retaliated and dumped Southern Lehigh 56 to 43 in a closely fought game. We went into league play on the “left foot” dropping the first two contests to Fountain Hill and Parkland. The knights of the court seesawed from victory to defeat with Pen Argyl, Coplay, East Stroudsburg, Phillipsburg, and Bangor. The Warriors then added its name to the Wilson teams that have defeated Nazareth. We won 39-34, in over time on the able shooting of co-captain, Craig Fuehrer. We then lost to Hellertown 63-58, with a last quarter rally falling short. The second half began as poorly as the first, losing the first two games to Fountain Hill and Parkland. However, progress was shown with the opponents just edging out the victory. It was a determined team that hit the last half of the schedule, winning 6 out of 7, dropping the last one to Hellertown. The Warriors again had the priviledge of beating Nazareth, their archrival, by the score of 47 to 38. The team concluded the season with 12 wins and 9 losses; the Lehigh-Northamp-ton League record was 9 and 7. The team scored 1165 points throughout the year as compared to the opponents 1105 tallies. This included 878 points on field goals and 287 on foul shots. The individual scoring was lead by backcourt ace, Craig Fuehrer. He scored 520 points during the year, 400 of which came during league games. Craig, although only a junior, achieved many honors for his outstanding ability. He lead the Lehigh-Northampton League with the most points scored, made the first team All-League, and received honorable mention on the All-State team. Craig was aided by Bill Baker with 199 points, Bob Adams with 127, Chip Bachman with 84, Joe Matyas with 71, Barry Seiple with 58, and Bob Fulton with 57 points. All in all, the class of ’61 can be proud of the Warrior knights of the court. 78 WILSON BOROUGH HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY BASKETBALL SUMMARY—1960-1961 Won 12 Lost 9 L-N League: Won 9 Lost 7 We Thej 56 Palmerton ............ 48 41 Dieruff .............. 50 56 So.

At this time, Wilson was in a three way tie for first place with Easton and Bethlehem. In the sixth meet the Warrior grapplers faced a strong Easton High team and were defeated 29-12.

The first game was played at Southern Lehigh on a cold, windy day. Southern Lehigh won the non-league game, 5 2. The game with Dieruff and the two games with Phillipsburg were postponed due to the rain. The first league game was played at home with Bangor. This game had been postponed at an earlier date. Tom Dingle pitched a two-hit game and the Warriors fought Bangor to a 0-0 tie. The next game at Nazareth was the Warriors first league loss. The Warriors took a 3-0 lead in the top of the first, but Nazareth roared back with nine runs in the last of the inning. The Eagles went on to a 12-3 victory after the 54 minute first inning. To help their game along Nazareth executed a triple play in the second inning. The team retaliated, however, and beat Fountain Hill with two big inning rallies. The Warriors unleashed a 14-hit attack to swamp the Hillers 11-2. Fountain Hill took a 1-0 lead in the first on a sacrifice fly, but Wilson came back with five singles good for five runs. Bob Adams’ safety chased across two of them. The Hillers rallied in the fourth but for only one run. The Warriors sealed the verdict with six more runs in the fourth. Tom Dingle was the winning pitcher, striking out 7 and walking 3. Tom surrendered only three hits during the game. Wilson High lost there next game to Parkland due to a walk and two costly errors. Parkland rolled to a 3-0 lead in the fourth when the winniQg pitcher Bob Mertz drove in two runs with a single and scored the third on a over-throw. Dingle, the losing pitcher, gave up only three hits while striking out six. The Warriors scored their only run when Wayne Unger singled and came home on single by Tom Dingle, a bunt by Jack Messer, and a walk by Keith Metier. The Wilson Warriors and their coaches, Mr. Berger and Mr. Gerber, are looking forward to a successful completion of the baseball season. 81 R. Kiger, R. Mammano, T. Dingle, R. Hazclton, W.

Although only breaking even in the first four meets, the boys are striving to retire the Clare Johnson trophy in the triangular meet. They are also looking for a repeat performance in winning the field trophy at the Bethlehem Relays. At the first meet with Nazareth, the Eagles were aided by the speed of Jeff Marsh who placed first in the 100 and the 220. Wilson also fell down in the field events with Nazareth placing first in each of them. Wilson extended its bad streak by losing to Parkland, 44l 2 to 54, 2- Although the Warriors placed first in the javelin, pole vault, 100, and the 220, Parkland received firsts in the other events and gained the majority of the second and third places.

Peppy cheerleaders play an important role in sports, as they try their best to spur a winning team. Even when the odds are against them, they never give up their vim and vigor.

Wilson High School marching band in fanfare formation. Mr. Ronald Sherry, the new band director, introduced to the public a newly militarized unit which won public acclaim from Reading to Boyertown. The band appeared on the football field with the new sound, the new look, and new life. The spirit of the band was far above par, as could be seen at Boyertown, which was a shining example. Although the bandsmen needed some prompting during the inspection, they quickly regained their faculties as soon as the opening strains of the Chinese fanfare were sounded. The judges, as well as the spectators, were overwhelmed by the prize-winning drilling and playing. After such a successful night at Boyertown, the band went on to display their repertoire on other occasions which proved to be just as rewarding. In the beginning of November, all plans were centered on the Nazareth game. While the competition between the two schools, both athletically and musically, was intense; the team and band pulled through by doing a good job and we all had a good time marching home. Once we came back from our Christmas vacation, we started to work on one of the best programs the band ever played. The music for the program consisted of classical, martial, show, and popular music. Hits of the night were “Parade of the Charioteers” from “Ben Hur”, “March for Americans”, “Greenwillow”, and “Theme from the Apartment”. Soloists for the concert were Judy Kane, piano, and Richard Brasefield, trumpet. This year something new was added to the band concert in the form of the John Philip Sousa Band Award. This award is given to the outstanding boy and girl senior member of the band. This year the recipients were Richard Brasefield and Bonnie Bastka. The band closed the school year with another concert and a few parades. But unlike other years the band has one more event before their year is complete. This is the Lion’s International Convention which is to be held in Atlantic City. The band parents, members, and the Lion’s Club have worked hard to make the convention a success. 101 Row 1: Mr. R.

Scholarship, service, leadership, citizenship, and character are the factors which determine a student’s eligibility to be elected to the Honor Society. An average of “B” or better is a requirement for admission. But scholarship alone will not admit a student to the Society. To scholarship must be added service. The unselfish devotion which gives itself to the need of the individual, of the school, and of the nation. But to service must be added leadership. Not every man is born to lead but to those who possess that gift and use it well, the world gives honor and glory. Those who are chosen for membership have shown active participation and leadership in extra-curricular activities. To leadership must be added character. As one grows in character, his personality becomes increasingly attractive and beneficial to those around him. And to character must be added citizenship. Membership in the National Honor Society is limited to 10 per cent of the senior class and 5 per cent of the junior class.

The production of this memorable book is an arduous task for both the staff members and the advisors. The editorial staff, under the guidance of Mr. Thomas Burke includes the literary, sports, photography, and layout staffs. The literary department, headed by Joan Davey is responsible for writing all copy, including senior and club writeups and the added attractions such as the will, prophecy, and history, and finally, the staff edites, types, and sends the finished product to the printer. The layout staff, under the supervision of Jessie McFeeley, plans the layout of the book and decides what pictures should be taken, and meets the problem of squeezing copy into alloted space. The photography staff, headed by Joyce Jones, schedules the pictures in cooperation with the photography advisor, Mr. Harold Reppert. The sports staff, directed by Steve Schooley, plans the entire athletic section including pictures, copy, and layout. The business staff under the faculty direction of Miss Hay and the student direction of Barry DePamphlis, secures the advertisers and the patrons and handles all the financial problems. Each year, the juniors on the yearbook staff attend the yearbook conference at Muhlenberg College to gain new ideas for their book the following year. During the summer vacation, after school, and on Saturday, the work on the yearbook continues, until each detail meets the approval of the editor-in-chief, Bonnie Marshall and the assistant editor, Bill Rapp. At last the Les Memoires is ready for the publisher, and as all the staffs, advisors, and editors hope, it will be printed a prize winning yearbook. 115 Row 1: M.

Miss Sandra Iobst and Miss Norma Mooney, efficient and experienced advisors, have coaxed and coddled this year’s paper into one of the best ever. Associate Editor, Jessie McFeeley, has helped the “Big Chief”, and Pam Hill, Feature Editor, who is also a literary whiz, has turned in excellent copy. Gayle Cooke, News Editor, and her nosy news staff have kept the school up to date on the latest events.

A new feature of the Echo this year is the membership in ROTO, a National Publications Association that is interested in bettering high school newspapers. Through ROTO, the Echo has introduced many new and interesting articles, and subscribers have received the ROTO magazine, a publication especially for high school students. After a promising subscription sale, at which buyers were given the Echo at a bargain rate of ninety-nine cents, the Echo continued by giving the students of Wilson High School a highly organized, definitely informative, and very excellent school paper. 118 Jltteruvuf, Sta Row I: L.

DePamphilis The Wilson High School Chapter of the National Thespian Society was chartered in 1952, and since then many students have been initiated. Membership in the National Thespian Society is one of the highest honors that can come to a high school dramatist. Qualification for admittance represents many hours of work in the theater arts. While acting in plays is an important role in the accumulation of thespian points, participation on the stage is not the only criteria for membership. For every good play there are student directors, stage crew, make-up committees, property chairmen, and scores of “behind the curtain” workers who contribute much to the success of the presentation. These students, also, find recognition in the National Thespian Society. Since 1952 Wilson has come a long way in organizing one of the most active troupes in the area. In I960 the troupe won the annual “Theater of the Air” Contest, and under the guidance of Mr. John Hooper, its new advisor, it promises to bring even greater distinction to Wilson High School.

It has grown to its present capacity of fifty-five members, and is one of the most active clubs in the school. The purpose of the Dramatics Club is the promotion of interest, ability, and knowledge in drama. Its meetings are devoted to the study of make-up, stage movement, and voice. Programs for entertainment are frequently planned. A highlight of the “dramatist’s” year is the annual presentation of a play in assembly, this year being “Murders of Miriam” a one-act play. Also, prominent in the program of the Club are three one-act plays presented for the public in the spring.

Their duties include taking charge of over due notices, helping to manage the borrowing and returning of books, and arranging books on their correct shelves. They also keep an accurate card catalogue, help file magazines for reference use, and take charge of the desk when the librarian is busy. Members are also given time to discuss the new books which come into the library and they also create attractive displays for these books. In addition to learning all about the library, its purpose, and its parts, the members learn how to care for new books and how to mend damaged ones.

Hey, you guys, cut it out!” These, and other assorted exclamations are voiced when the stage crew goes to work. How could we ever have good assemblies and plays without this busy group? Although hey are usually behind the scenes, this year’s crew were coached into taking a bow by Mr. Reese at an assembly program. The members must learn the intricacies of the back-stage lighting and learn them well. They are introduced to a maze of wires and switches which they must be able to identify and recollect at a moment’s notice. During the annual Christmas Pageant, the boys are at their busiest. They are perched precariously on ladders as they seek to get just the right effect with the lighting and they arc run to a frazzle trying to keep up with the change of scenes. For the senior play they must acquaint themselves with each piece of scenery and each prop and they are expected to get it in the right place at the right time. Then, too, there are the weekly assemblies, and although they are not so demanding they still require work. But the stage crew realizes that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy so their off stage antics make even the most frightened participant in a school program, crack a smile.

Individuals in the club combine artistic and typing skill to achieve pleasing pictures. By making use of cross-stitch, needle-point, and filet crochet patterns, the members create pictures, designs, and portraits. Using the pattern as a guide, they transfer the stitches from the pattern to the typewriter keys. Members bring in a copy of the design they want or they create their own. The club has also used the cut-out pattern method of artistic typing to achieve interesting effects. The members have worked on a silhouette project where profiles of subjects are traced from shadows on the wall and then cut into patterns.
