Merritt and Mathew Mengel, purchased several large farms west of the city of Reading for the purpose of a suburban real estate develop- ment. Their land was that portion of Wyomissing bounded by Trent and Evans Avenues, the Lebanon Valley Railroad and the Wyomissing Creek. This company proceeded to lay out streets and lots in the proposed community and to plant 25,000 silver maple trees for shade. Later when skilled engineers were employed for grad- ing the land and plotting the streets, they experienced con- siderable difficulty because of these numerous trees. Streets could not be properly leveled without destroying trees and therefore many peculiar hills and terraces may still be noticed in some sections of the borough,-for instance the curve in Wyomissing Boulevard, at the South East corner of Cleveland Avenue. A large poplar, seven feet in diameter, stood there and engineers built around it, rather than destroy this magnifi- cent landmark. However, it was but a few years until a bolt of lightning destroyed it. Further east on Wyomissing Boulevard was a huge cave at the quarry causing a curve at that point. Messrs. Charles and Milton Mory developed the remaining eastern portion of Wyomissing, east of Trent Avenue, but later Page Eleven COLOPHON -KAN Wyomissing Boulevard and Penn Avenue, 1890 sold out to the Delta Real Estate Company, which continued the work. lt is interesting to note here that our present borough engineer, Mr. lrwin Hater, was employed by the Morys and has continued his work in Wyomissing ever since, becoming Borough Engineer in l9l7. The tirst real impetus to the development ot the borough was given by Messrs. Ferdinand Thun and Henry Ianssen. ln l896 they established a machine shop along the railroad which enormously advanced the textile industry. The tirst buildings erected were the hotel, opposite the town hall, and a small - - Page Twelve C O L O P H O N Wyomissing Boulevard and Penn Avenue. 1935 grocery store opposite the hotel. The Henry Stetler and Floyd Lance residences were among the first to be constructed, until atter the erection of the Textile Machine Works, when homes were built for the accommodation of the workers. The town has grown slowly but steadily through the years. When the resi- dent taxables numbered sixty-one, agitation for the establish- ment ot a borough was begun. Home owners wished to secure more privileges, comforts, protection, and regulation of streets. Petitions were presented to the court in l904 and 1905 and, although there was much opposition, the municipality was ..?a....wM..nmummmmnnrmamw1 n':mQmmnmM.mnmfn.fu,n- V--V-L.

When the development was first planned by the Reading Suburban Real Estate Company and the Morys, Penn Avenue was a turnpike along which the Reading-Womelsdorf Street Railway lines were laid. Immediately after the planning, gas, electric and Water lines were constructed. The water, supplied by two large springs in the southern portion ot the borough, was pumped to a reservoir on top of Ulaeger Hill by the small pumping station located along the creek. This station, which Page Fourteen COLOPHON . ' Lynn and Garfield Avenues, Looking North. 1935 is often mistaken for an electric or an ice plant, was formerly run by water power from the dam, but is now driven by an electric motor. The power for lighting the town was first sup- plied by the Sinking Springs Electric Company. Today it is furnished by the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company. Numerous changes were made in the original plans of the borough. The Wyomissing Playground has taken the place of a circular road.

Directions, too, of the roads have been slightly changed and Mary, Frill, and Lebanon Avenues have been vacated to provide room for the expansion of the Wyo- rnissing Industries. Several tracts of land adjoining the south- ern and Western boundaries of the town were annexed. The latest addition is the Hildebrand tract acquired in 1930. Our city fathers realized the importance of landscape gar- dening and carried out an extensive program. The last of the original silver rnaples has now been replaced by hardier trees.

The last ot these was completed in 1928. Between l929 and 1931 house sewers were laid. Readers may be interested to note the list ot restrictions drawn up by the Reading Suburban Real Estate Company tor the protection of home owners. They show great foresight, and citizens are justly proud of their community. fl-v-14-nsm1mnrma 'WmWA '1'wm' '- Page Seventeen COLOPHON ARTICLES CF RESTRICTION All springs or Water courses in Wyomissing, and if found on any portion of the property in Wyomissing, are hereby reserved by the company, and no buyer or buyers of prop- erty on which such springs or Water courses may be found, shall have the right to their sole use, nor in any event use or sell their Water for gain or any consideration.

Their presence was not appreciated until they began to Win inter-class sport events. At first, these victories were regarded as mistakes but when they were repeated, the school became definitely conscious of the most superior Freshmen. And when many of these scholars appeared on the honor roll each term, the school reveled in this perfect group. Then the bubble burst. The cause-The lnter-Class Track and Field Meet. The Freshmen, ready to die for their cause, could not, however, place better than third in any event. As a result, the class came in last in the meet. The silvery dreams of greatness crashed about their heads. Nevertheless, they left for their vacation vowing to return in the fall and show the cruel World that they were undaunted. With ranks augmented by P. Hiester, I. Bolender, S. Haupt, and C. Mills, the Sophomore campaign was started by giving a Halloween Party. Athletically and scholastically the class's record was better than that of the previous year. I. Ruth, F. McGavin, and H. Werner played on the varsity soccer team, While I. Ruth represented them on the basketball quintet.

I A census of the class as Iuniors disclosed the fact that P. Hiester, I. Bolender, E. Fisher, M. Dice, M. Sharp, L.'lDoty, and R. Arnold had left the class, and L. Ahrens, M. Verrron, D. Moyer, K. Baird, W. Good, and C. Ulmer had joinedi These scholars, now being privileged to organize, elected I. Gelarhqrt, presidentg I. Roeder, vice-presidentg A. Kaufman, Secretary, B. Winkler, treasurerg and C. Busch, chaplain. I. Ruth, I. Gearhart, F. McGavin, H. Werner, M. Woodnick, and C. Ulmer Were chosen for the varsity soccer teamg and I. Ruth, I. Gearhart, and C. Ulmer attained positions on the basketball team. S. Cobb upheld the honor of the class in the Guy Knowlton Sembower Oratorical Contest. The Iunior debat- ing team, composed of C. Doty, I. Gearhart, I. Harper, and G. Pomeroy, defeated the Seniors in the annual Iunior-Senior debate. C. Doty, I. Gearhart, I. Harper, and C. Mills took part in the County debates. ln the Inter-Class Track Meet the Iuniors came in second. AS Seniors, this class elected the following officers: President, I. Gearhartg vice-president, I. Harper, secretary, E. Wenger, treasurer, W. Barr, and Chaplain, C. Busch. Because most of the boys Were on the Varsity squads the class did not enter many teams in inter-class competition. Scholastically this year i- Page Sixty-five COLOPHON was a paragon ,ot years. C. Doty and M. Woodnick appeared in the Oratorical Contest and the tormer Won tirst prize. The class team beat the Iuniors in the annual debate, the team being B. Beirn, I. Ludwig, I. Harper, and C. Mills. Clt is to be noted that the class ot '35 Won the Iunior-Senior Debate both as Iuniors and Seniorsl Seniors on the county debating teams Were: B. Beirn, C. Doty, I. Harper, and I. Gearhart. About the middle of the year C. Mills and W. Good lett the school. And so it came to pass in the second year ot the Franklin D. Roosevelt Administration, that a large, talented and skilled group ot scholars was graduated from the Wyomissing High School to go its Way in the Wide, Wide World. 7- -f -fr ww- --'- ff- Page Sixty-six -.-,W-.,...w. x Qfiez C!a.44e.4 -f-v46Q----.-'1r':e-r - -.V 1-.,,..,1,.,.

The prerogative of the Iunior year Was experienced early in the term. We organized and elected Bruce Peters for President, Robert Fleck, Vice-President, Trienah Meyers, Secretary, and Eric Hemmerich, Treasurer. Before many Weeks had passed We were in the midst of the throes of selecting a class ring. The decision Was finally made and from that point our career was smoother and easier. The first social function, a hike, Was followed closely by a unique l-lalloWe'en Party. Within a month's time, another hike was taken. In school, We displayed our artistic and dramatic ability through a History program, an English program, and the Christmas Operetta. You Will be interested to know that a triumvirate, or The Schmutz Club, consisting of Robert Fleck, Trienah Meyers, and Grant Stutzman did most of the designing and painting of scenery for these productions. Our protege is the Puppet Club, fostered by us for the purpose of blazing a path for future marionette clubs. The soccer season called into service several of our class, George Bennethum, Bruce Peters, Bruce Eckert, and Russel Seidel. Basketball sounded the call for these men again. They are the material which will furnish the backbone of next year's teams. We are proud of our membership in the Hi-Y and Girl Re- serve Clubs. Gur representatives are among their more active members. Bruce Peters holds the position of Vice-President in the former club, and Dorothy Haag is Treasurer, and Hannah Lightner, Reporter in the latter. Page Seventy-one COLOPHON 1 In the field ol oratory, too, our Work was commendable. Mary Capallo tied for second place in the Guy Knowlton Sembower Oratorical Contest. In the Iunior-Senior Debate, Helen Nicholson, Mary Capallo, Donald Henderson, and Lay- ton Butts presented splendid arguments. Although they did not win, their material was excellently arranged and well de- livered, Donald Henderson, Trienah Meyers, Mary Capallo, and Helen Nicholson admirably represented the Iunior Class in the County Debates. We are at the close of our eleventh school year. The most important term of our high school career stands before us. As We look into the future We can sincerely hope that the class of '36 will set standards of which our Alma Mater will be proud.

How success- -N.:-I ful we have been may be gleaned from the following: The home-room has been organized and directed by capable groups of officers elected every six weeks. Early in the fall a class hike was enjoyed by all the Sophomores. Later in the year, Christmas cards and Valentines were collected to send to boys in Burma. In athletics the girls have entered all the inter-class com- petitive sports. The boys, too, have taken part in inter-class sports and several have attained positions on the Iunior Var- sity teams. The Sophomores have also been active in scholastic enter- prises. lean Hahn tied for the second award in the Guy Knowl- ton Sembower Oratorical Contest, a most unusual attainment for a Sophomore. We do not profess to be socially prominent for our activities are necessarily limited. Five boys, however, were admitted to the Hi-Y, and twenty-five girls were invited to join the Girl Reserves. The class is also greatly interested in all the musical organi- zations of the school. ln both the orchestra and the band we have ,taken willing parts. The girls, especially, have found pleasure in the work of the Glee Club and their efforts have been fwell rewarded. - As the year draws to a close we hope the class of '37 has attained its goal of being considered an active and intelligent group.

The school newspaper, The Gargantuanf' owes much of its success to the Freshmen. Members of our class constitute the entire staff. They are: Editor, William Fritz, Assistant Editor, William Matteng News Editor, Le Roy Lightner, Feature Editor, Dorothy Kiftg Sports Editor, Marvin Meyers, Advertising Man- ager, lohn Wilson, Circulation Manager, Russell Blattg Art Editor, Robert Iamisong Assistant Art Editor, Robert Wuchter, and Exchange Editor, Helen Vogt. Advised by Mr. Milford, the paper is expected to remain a fixed part of school life. Another activity the Freshmen were instrumental in starting was the lunior Puppet Club. This group, organized only this year, has tried to follow the example set by the senior group. There are, of course, scoffers who ask, ls there a Iunior Puppet Club? Pay no attention to them. lt takes time for any organi- zation to get started. Guided by Miss Printz the club is showing results, and will in the near future prove its right to recognition in the school. The Freshmen members, William Matten, Presi- dent, Marguerite Hettinger, Dorothy Kift, and Oscar Ulrich, are deeply interested. Also in the field of sports the Frosh are well known. The boys organized a basketball league and a number of them came out for soccer and track. The girls took first place in the inter-class competition in hockey. lt is quite an unusual attain- ment for the Freshmen to win in competition with the Senior High School. Thus no one can say that our class is dull or inactive. A -..Af ' - .s.....,. .miww-MMsnzzm.w.:s1av.mef-emmfafewaasveef--me-t--W,Zfe..,-..,-:e.

Besides the increase in the number of pupils on the Honor Roll, there has been an increase in the consistency ot individual attainments. At the time ot writing there are thirty-three students eligible tor Scholarship Pins. They are: gold pins, tor three years on the Hgnor Roll:- Bettie Beirn, Carol Doty, and Betty Wenger, silver pins tor two years on Honor Roll:-Iames Cfearhart, Anna Kaufmann, George Pomeroy, Layton Butts, Mary Capallo, Dorothy Haag, Donald Henderson, Trienah Meyers, Helen Nicholson, and Hazel Wert, and bronze pins tor one year on the Honor Roll:- William Barr, lames Harper, Ieannette Roeder, Mary Vernon, Burton Winkler, Iohn Clark, Candis Ginn, lean Hahn, Marjorie Harwick, Helen Heck, Hildegarde Hemmerich, Arline Henry, Martha Hess, Marianne Hessemer, Dorothy Hoffmann, Kathleen Iohnson, Iohn Kaufmann, lane Loose, Carl Mogel, and Anne- marie Nix. Last year only eighteen persons received pins. The scholastic work ot the school this year is so much im- proved that the sum total ot all the pupils who received pins in the last three years exceeded by a very small margin the pupils eligible this year. ln l932 the first awards tor Scholar- ship were made. Since that time seven gold pins have been earned by the following pupils: Rita Wenger, William Breit- inger, Kathleen Funk, Ieannette Henry, Blaine Shirk, Margaret Eaches, and Arthur Hess. ln addition to the above, the tollow- ing received pins: Grace Clark and Elizabeth Ruth, silver, Maurice Rider, Rolt Hemmerich, Albert Friedmann, and Mil- dred Mogel, bronze.

There were inter-class teams represented in fall and Winter sports, which were hockey, soccer, volleyball, and basketball. A fine group of girls reported for track, and the teams took part in several inter-scholastic county meets. As the spring sea- son advanced, baseball and tennis were enthusiastically played. The Girls' Athletic Association, although only a few years old, has made great strides and is fast becoming an organiza- tion of major importance. Besides improving the health of the girls, it has promoted a fine spirit of cooperation, of friendly rivalry, and of truly good sportsmanship.

About forty aspir- ants reported to help carry on the old wars for the honor of the school. After two weeks of heated competition for the vari- ous positions, Coach Diedrick finally chose the following: Goalie, Dick Fisher, fullbacks, Quentin Diedrick, Bruce Peters, and Iames Gearhart, halfbacks, Burt Winkler, Iohn Ruth, Harry Werner, Henry Craumer, Eric Hemrnerich, Albert Golden, Spencer Cobb, and William Barr, forwards, Clarence Ulmer, Russel Seidel, George Bennethurn, Bruce Eckert, Paul Strunk, and Captain Fred McGavin. During the league season two games were won and three were tied. This is not a very enviable record, but considering the fact that there was a great deal of green material and strong competition, we were satisfied. While taking time out between league contests two games were played with Muhlenberg, northern division champs, and two with Reading High. Two of these were lost, the first to Muhlenberg, the last to Reading High. Our injured feelings, however, were partially assuaged by tying both the above teams at a later date. We are proud to say that our organiza- tion was the only one in the Berks County League able to tie them. On the whole the season has been highly satisfactory.

The outlook was favorable. Coach Deidrick had five letter men from last year's club: lohn Ruth, Iames Gearhart, Burton Winkler, Clarence Ulmer, and Bruce Peters, and a very promising squad of ambitious candidates, consisting of Fred McGavin, Meyer Woodnick, Russel Seidel, George Bennethum, and Quentin Deidrick. After the first scheduled game Wyomissing looked unbeat- able, defeating West Reading to the tune of 37 to 14. For some reason, after this game the squad did not do very well. Wyo- missing lost four consecutive games, two being league contests. Hopes were slim, but still the group was not going to give up. It came back and defeated Womelsdorf. Then occurred the event of the season, with Robesonia. The fellows were out to give Roby a hard fight. It was a hard fought battle, the Robins defeating the Sunsets Zl to 32. To make things worse, for several weeks Bruce Peters had a bad hand.- Luck was with us, however, on the night of Ianuary the eighteenth, for we were victorious over Wernersville by 3 points. After this we suffered two setbacks, one at Kutztown and the other at Wilson. On February twenty-eighth, the fellows were out to beat Sinking Spring. They did. Everyone played a beautiful game. A week later we met Womelsdorf on their floor, An extra period was called, the only game in which this occurred. lt was ex- citing to the very end,-Wyomissing winning by six counters. Page Eighty-six . T , T The team suffered a handicap in the last two games because Winkler was unable to play one game and Gearhart the other. The second to the last game was lost to Robesonia. Then came the encounter with Wernersville, the last of the season. For the past two years Wyomissing has barely beaten that team on our home floor. To end the season happily we de- feated Wernersville, 50 to 22, and Gearhart showed everyone that he really could play basketball. He tied for high score with Captain Iohn Ruth, each tallying l6 counters. All told, the Seniors tallied 38 points, leaving 12 points for the Iuniors and Sophomores. And so was brought to a close the basketball season with a percentage of .50U. P-1--vM'lhh'-126-w 1lWMm' f A Page Eighty-seven CQLOPHQN Nov Dec. Dec. Ian. Ian. Ian. Icm. if if 5' Feb.

A number of sturdy lads answered the call. Then and there plans were laid tor a strenuous season. The next day road Work began in earnest. lt was a thrilling sight to see fifteen pairs ot muscular legs pounding along the hard, two-mile course. The accomplishments ot last year's track team created a high standard which we hope to equal this year. The task is gigantic, however, for most of the varsity men were lost by graduation. The building up of a new team chiefly from inex- perienced material necessitates the Whole-hearted cooperation ot the team, the student manager, Meyer Woodnickg and the captain, Burton Winkler. The team is charted tor success. ' Page Eighty-nine COLOPI-ION A TRIBUTE TO THE TRACK TEAM OF l934 HE 1934 track team may justly be called a success, not only because of the records that the team acquired which will in all probability stand tor some time, but it is a success also due to the fact that the team was able to win first place in its division in tour out of the tive meets. These meets were Al- bright, West Reading, Lancaster, and Reading High. Owing to the consistency with which Mills, Rothermel, and Hemmerich won the century, turlong, and broad jump, respec- tively, the team was able to acquire the tour trophies which are reposing in the school library. Both Roe, who in the half- mile continually added points to the team total, and Hartz, who did the same in the mile and javelin, aided tremendously in the winning of the above mentioned trophies. Not a little credit for the team's success must be given to the relay team composed of Mills, Hemmerich, Winkler, Seaman, Taylor, and Roe, which succeeded in placing at Albright, West Reading, and Reading. Some of the team's success should also be ascribed to Sheetz, Ulmer, and W. Good who helped in the gathering ot the large number of points which the team col- lected throughout the season. Mr. Burkot must also be given high praise tor his work in developing a team that was the envy of the county. Those students who composed the l934 track team were: Fred Mills, Fred Rothermel, Carl Hernmerich, lohn Hartz, Avard Taylor, Lewis Roe, Richard Seaman, Burton Winkler, Robert Sheetz, Clarence Ulmer, William Good, Walter Henry, Robert Good, William Barr, Donald Henderson, Russel Seidel, Grant Stutzman, and Henry Craumer. i...i..........

Meyer Woodnick- Fighting the Kidnap Racket with the Death Penalty. lean Hahn- Will Preparation for War Insure Peace? David Levan- Recovery via the New Deal. Carol Doty- World Peace. Carol Doty won the first prize of five dollars. lean Hahn and Mary Capallo tied for second place, each receiving two and one-half dollars. The judges who so graciously gave their time were: Mr. Robert Henderson, Reading Boy Scout Executive, Mr. Frederick Lantz, professor at West Reading High School, and Mr. Fritz Ahfeld, of the Textile Machine Works. Mr. Samuel l. Henry, of the High School faculty, presided. lt was indeed gratifying to see the keen interest displayed by the following students, who also submitted written orations: Iames Harper, Spencer Cobb, Helen Nicholson, Frances Lerch, Mary Kurtz, Marjorie Harwick, Helen Heck, Richard Moyer, and Ieannette Roeder. As the readers probably know, the fund for this contest was created by Mr. and Mrs. Sembower as a memorial to their son, Guy Knowlton Sembower, who would have been a member of the class of 1930. 1. ..

On the Senior team were: Bettie Beirn, lane Ludwig, lames Harper, and Charles Mills. The Iunior team was composed of Mary Capallo, Helen Nicholson, Donald Henderson, and Layton Butts. The annual County Debate was held on February twenty- second. The subject was: Equalizing education by means of annual Federal grants. Our negative team, composed of Bettie Beirn, Trienah Meyers, lames Harper, and Donald Henderson, was defeated at Muhlenberg by a vote of two to one. Our af- firmative team, however, debating at home, was more success- ful, defeating Oley by a unanimous vote.

Gradually more and more pupils become eligible for nomination. The faculty is finding it difficult to decide upon the best, since the constitution limits the group to fifteen per cent. of the Senior Class and five per cent. of the Iunior Class. Eligibility is based upon first, scholarship, second, and more important, leadership, third, and greater than both of the above, service, and fourth, the combination of these, or character. The National Honor Society members of the Class of l935 Who were chosen last year, are: Carol Doty, Anna Kaufman, and lames Gearhart, Those recently selected are: Seniors, Louise Ahrens, William Barr, and lames Harper, Iuniors, Mary Capallo, Trienah Meyers, and Bruce Peters.

Thus, hav- ing definitely installed'an unusually large group of new mem- bers, the G. R., under the guidance of Miss Luckenbill, launched upon the many and varied activities of its Pall program. Our first social activity of interest was a bicycling party through the well-known streets of Wyomissing. This was fol- lowed by an enthusiastic social meeting which brought to light all sorts of hitherto undiscovered talent. Perhaps one of our most delightful experiences was our Alumnae Tea at Christ- mas time. No less enjoyable was the Mother-Daughter Tea in April. Early in the new year our treasury, by this time somewhat depleted, was amply increased by the proceeds of the Cake Sale, which made possible the sending of two delegates to the . Girl Reserve Convention at Wilkes-Barre. Then followed the spring recognition service, a very gay St. Valentine dance, a trip to the theatre to see David Copperfield, a St. Patrick's party, and the long-awaited camp week-end. Apart from our social activities, however, there are other equally important phases of our club work. A number of splen- did speakers addressed us during the year: The Reverend Dr. Robert Campbell, Mrs. L. P. Perry, Mlle. Germaine Benoit, Dr. Eugene Page, Dr. H. S. Kieser, and Mr. Carl Cassel. Several meetings were also devoted to work for hospitals. ...ff Page Ninety-eight .r I if 'v I X- 2.2 .' si l i 4 Z' f L v X40 if .911 Al-dy: X coLoPHoN ,, A0 ,Q WB in the high directed by They presented Princess Mar- betore the high undertook a project ot this several plays at club meetings and g ries the Page, by Edna St. Vincent school assembly, in a well-nigh profession l manner.

Mr. Chafey showed us the pleasure and importance of hobbies in his talk on Avocations Becom- ing Vocations , Major Muhlenberg fortified us against war by an address entitled War Experiences and Educationwg Mr. Gramm had an appropriate discussion on Social Insurance , Dr. Deitrich solicited our help in combating Tuberculosis , Mr. Cassel told us How to Get There , Mr. Gordon Williams an- swered our never ending questions on Sports g Major Adams had a forceful dissertation showing that Crime Does Not Pay g Mr. Fryer aroused our interest with his tales of distant lands, Mr. Craumer related his experiences as a lawyerg and finally Dr. Roth gave us his farewell guidance. This group of speakers imparted to everyone not only inspiration and guidance but aroused us to higher ideals of manhood. lt is, however, only the things we do for each other that strengthen the ties of friendship that bind us together. Social functions of every type were interspersed between our pro- grams. The opening banquet spread on the bountiful tables of the Washington House came first. Later we held the annual fall doggie roast, followed shortly by the gay lnter-Club Dance. Then came an unrestrairfed game night during which Mo- nopoly proved rnost entertaining. When the snow came we picked a frigid night for a sledding party. A week later we thawed out on a trip to the Reading Museum, under the per- sonal direction of Dr. Mengel. This famous curator led us back millions of years, into the prehistoric past, when Berks County was nothing but a tropical jungle. A swim night gave oppor- tunity for the release of spring's excess energies. An excursion through the Textile Foundry increased our knowledge of iron, -.---i Page One Hundred i I COLOPI-ION ' .,- .. :Q-fw see, +A fu 2 A ..:y:gff::f1-.-1 was:::.:f1fs'-re- '5f' -,.rf:'r arf'-.:.. -.v.-ff:-ei 1355.4 91 V5-fn':.,.aQ.::4zfv--fr.. .nf- the backbone of our industrial civilization. Finally, at the clos- ing banquet, May seventeenth, the Seniors gathered for the last time. During the year We also had many enjoyable evenings alone, in our meeting room. The election speeches and argu- ments, the formal installations, and the Well planned initiations are examples. It is the open forums, however, that will be longest remembered. These few meetings held the club to its purpose and advanced it in the direction of its more serious objectives. Thus our last year has passed and We, the Seniors, leave a parting Word of thanks to our faithful adviser, Mr. Rank, and a cheer for those remaining behind. Farewell and Carry On. The officers for l934wl935 Were:-President, Iames Gearhartg Vice-President,,Bruce Peters, Secretary, Iohn Ruth, Treasurer, Burton Winkler, and Chaplain, William Muhlenberg. e ---f-Q-------1--nw--v-w--wwnmzw mwrs wwnMw'wrfMww'mW--Y - Page One Hundred One CCLOPHCN , , .,.,,, ,. ,,... ,. . ,. ,.,, , ,, ,,l,,,.-..-.., .,,f,,, ,- , ,W ,, N, , ,wt ze- 5 x V. il .

The meetings are held monthly at the homes of the various members. The oiiicers elected at the first meeting were Carol Doty, President, and Louise Ahrens, Secretary. The club has grown continually until at present there are fifteen members. Our knowledge oi the language' and the customs oi the French people was augmented in various ways: talks by Mlle. Germaine Benoit on Christmas in France and Lite in the Schools oi France , games played in French, skits spoken in French, and forum discussions of various subjects oi interest. Finally, a play was given in assembly which marked the com- pletion oi a most valuable and enjoyable year. Page One Hundred Two C O L O P I-I O N Q THE PUPPET CLUB HE Wyomissing Puppet Club, organized in l932, has as its president, this year, Trienah Meyers. Miss Printz, the ad- viser of the group, is constantly leading on to new and more difficult undertakings. This year, especially, remarkable prog- ress has been made towards more artistic presentations. Now the puppets have, indeed, a professional air. A new and elab- orate stage including unusual lighting facilities and new scen- ery was built by the group. Comedy sketches and dramatic scenes were presented to the school assembly, and the splendid progress of the club was recognized and applauded. No new members were admitted to the Puppet Club in 1934-l935, so the caste still consists of Trienah Meyers, Robert Fleck, Grant Stutzman, George Bennethum, Bruce Eckert, Bruce Peters, Henry Craumer, and Eric l-lemmerich. ,, . ,,...,..m ..Msf.wm-im if, ,te-mem:t::LmsvL:..1nm1:r',z'1fmmSw.S'Yifauwwrsvezuxxwmvncfwmw ,NT W..-...ev-.-mf f-V Page One Hundred Three .. ,T 1 M l THE STAMP CLUB HE High School Stamp Club has been meeting bi-monthly for the past three years for the purpose of fostering one of the greatest and most interesting of all hobbies, that of stamp collecting. The club offers excellent opportunities for increas- ing knowledge of this subject, as Well as the individual col- lections. Last October all the members attended the Reading Stamp Exhibition and heard Mr. Charles I. Phillips, a Philatelist of international fame, Who interested and inspired them by re- lating his numerous experiences with some of the foremost stamp collectors of the twentieth century. The untiring efforts of lames Mercer, Presidentg Stuart Went- zel, Vice Presidentg Carl Mogel, Secretary, and Mr. Shirk, Adviser, have made this club one of the most Worthwhile activities of the school. WPaYge One Hundred Four COLOPI-ION THE BAND HE High School Band, under the leadership of Mr. Robert York, assembles for practice every Tuesday morning promptly at seven-thirty o'clock. The band consists of thirty membersw-all most enthusiastic. lt is ever Working on new and more difficult music With the hope of attaining that perfection necessary for a public appearance. Last Fourth of luly the band played in the parade. The jolt- ing of the truck occasioned only a very few discordant notes. ln Ianuary of this year, the band functioned in a program sponsored by the school, broadcast over WEEU. On numerous occasions it has played for the lunior and Senior High School assemblies. This year of advancement prophesies even greater progress in the coming year.

At the beginning of the session, Miss Wanner discovered not only many fine new voices, but a marked improvement in the voices of the older glee club members. The group demonstrated its ability in a Christmas Program, on the evening of December twentieth. The operetta, A Wooden Shoe Christmas, was presented on the same occasion by members ot the Iunior and Senior High Schools. The glee club, girls attired in White, and the boys in dark blue,-en- tered the rear ot the auditorium in a Processional, singing Adeste Fidelisf' When all had reached the stage, the chorus V-V Y--,.,, , , ....-.Q-.,, ,,mqL,M,,L,,:...!fg,-L-3:i.gm1f1 7 zm':amwvWnfm-..fmmm.2,a,....,nw.-.,...-..--....V Page One Hundred Six J i - , ' ' coLoPHoN 3:1-5'-.1 ..'ir'f f f2 5 '23 r .3-'. ., few' . rw -- . 4 3. xf - 'ir i f- ff sang beautiful Christmas ballads While lovely Christmas and Winter scenes were being flashed on a small screen. In the Recessional, the Club completely surrounded the audience and, While holding candles which afforded the only light, sang the final Christmas Carol, Silent Night. This pro- gram was most impressive. On Sunday, March third, with Miss Wanner at the organ, a group of glee club members sang in the Bausman Memorial Church. Later, May eleventh, twelve members of the club were chosen to sing in the combined chorus at Kutztown. A group of members also sang on School Entertainment Night. Special credit should be given to the quartet consisting of Harry Werner, Iohn Ruth, lames Harper, and Bernard Hef- felfinger, Who, accompanied by Anna Kaufman, rendered de- lightful music on various school programs. .9 fi' ,cf . .

Here the instrumentalists gain group experience under the guidance ot Miss Adelaide Wanner. The orchestras greatest Work rested in assuming the initial responsibility tor the many musical selections ot the school pageant, in Iune. All the members, Anna Kaufman, Kathleen Iohnson, Louise Golding, Edward Bechtel, Iune Yost, Fritz Hessemer, Francis Redcay, Vernon Meyers, Layton Butts, Howard Lutz, Paul Martin, and Carl Mogel, together with the additional assistance supplied by former graduates, contrib- uted vastly to the success ot the event. On May eleventh, several members of the group played with the massed county orchestra at the Kutztown Field Day. As tor commencement, the orchestras assistance in Elgar's Pomp and Circumstancen places that organization second in importance, on that occasion, to the class of l935. -- i A ' 'f-ll'HITH12HK'f7-1-YL 2T2Y ES'!ESP331F5L',?,IUmZS 'LH'5!2J1T3R'lL5X3!Hl'-7Ii2F1'SV-!-5-dlUurn1'f v1 -vvv----------'--f-- Page One Hundred Eight COLOPHON SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL ASSEMBLIES HE Iunior English Class initiated the Senior High School into its series of assemblies with the production of Gold- srr1itl1's comedy, She Stoops to Conquer. Two weeks later the Iunior History Class gave a play depicting a typical school scene in the early nineties. Many succeeding programs were also devoted to dramatics. The Commercial students pro- duced two interesting plays, concerning present day business problems. Mr. Henry's home room students presented, The Fatal Quest. Later, the play, The Princess Marries the Page was beautifully staged by the Senior Girl Reserves. A combined assembly was held in observance of Thanksgiv- ing. A monologue entitled, The Man Who Would Not Give Thanks, was recited by Reverend Mr. lohn Hahn in his usual forcible and impressive manner. The next event of importance was the Guy Knowlton Sem- bower Oratorical Contest. In the next assembly the Senior physics students performed several phenomenal experiments. February twenty-first, in observance of George Washing- ton's Birthday, Reverend M. LeRoy Wuchter addressed the en- tire student body on an interesting topic, The Modern Man's Version of Washington. On the following day the Senior High School heard the an- nual County Debate between the victorious Wyomissing af- firmative team and the Oley negative team. Later in the term the Hi-Y presented an imitative radio broadcast in the form of a play. Music furnished by the Colophon Orchestra and several selections by the Senior Boys Quartet comprised the entertain- ment for the Colophon Programs. With Commencement on Iune 20, we bring to a close an- other year of fine assemblies. Page One Hundred Nine COLOPI-ION Wag: ig+.'5 ,'- ,,7'w-+- Mm-1-f,fr:rffv'w5,jggaA9? a t min.

Work was undertaken among several of the Departments of the govern- ment of Pennsylvania. lt was hoped that definite information could be obtained on future methods to be utilized in making the citizen more familiar with his government. The pioneering aspect of the enterprise was recognized by all participating, Conclusions generally supported the belief that only by plung- ing the future citizen directly into the problems and policies of government could any substantial education be obtained. ........g..,...,.,,..,...-,meme E .wnm m. :mmbnmm1mmmmmm,mu..A.w.NH, ., ,. Page One Hundred Ten COLOPHON THE INTER-CLUB DANCE OFT lights, sweet music, beautiful gowns, and smartly tail- ored suits formed the gala setting for the Eighth Annual lnter-Club Dance. This affair, which marked the height of the school's social season, was held as usual in the school gym- nasium. lt was attended by well over fifty couples. The deco- rations consisted mainly of our school colors, blue and white. An attractive fountain occupied the center of the floor. Music was supplied by the inimitable Palm Beach Serenaders and right Well did they perform their duty, The members of the school faculty were well represented and their Willingness to chaperon the dance was heartily appre- ciated. The efficient committee, under the able leadership of Ieannette Roeder, made this dance one of the finest ever spon- sored by the Clubs. IUNIOR-SENIOR PROM CLOCK was striking with a deep, sonorous, and melodi- ous sound. It was that beautiful, old, grandfather clock, outside the ballroom of the Wyomissing Club, in Reading, Chiming eight-thirty o'clock, Saturday, May fourth-ushering in the Annual Iunior-Senior Promenade. No sooner had the Chiming ceased, than soft music sum- moned beautiful girls in lovely spring frocks to come and trip it with their handsome Prince Charmings. The first dance, the second, slipped away .... lt was all like Cinderella's Ball, for suddenly that melodious chime, which had so recently opened the Prom, was striking twelve. With the last sound ended a perfect, but too short, evening. To the chaperons, who contributed so much to our pleasure, we give a vote of thanks. Page One Hundred Eleven COLOPHON THE SCHUYLKILL RIVER PROTECT HE Wyomissing Foundation has for some time attempted to arouse public sentiment concerning the deplorable con- dition of the Schuylkill River. This year a plan was formulated to establish a fund with assistance from the government, to re- store the by-gone beauty and usefulness of the river and its surroundings. The public-spirited men of the Foundation initi- ated an essay Writing contest on the subject Youths Plea for a Clean and Beautiful Schuylkill River. Although not the only school entered in the contest, Wyo- missing achieved highly gratifying results. The Winners in the Senior High Were: First, Mary Capallo, second, Mary Vernon, and third, Louise Ahrensg and in the Iunior High: First, Robert Ebbert, second, Iune Sterner, and third, Mary Anne Kellum. SCHOOL BROADCASTS N Ianuary, Wyomissing High School presented its first radio broadcast. The program included a forum discussion and several musical selections. ln this discussion the activity lead- ers of the school told the editors of the 1935 Colophon why the organizations they represented justified space in the annual. The musical selections were rendered by Robert Gehret, ac- companied by Miriam Willman, the band, and a quintet com- posed of Iames Harper, Bernard Heffelfinger, Iohn Ruth, Harry Werner, and Meyer Woodnick, accompanied by Anna Kaufman. The school appeared before the microphone for a second time in February. Excerpts from the County Debate, which were interspersed with music by Robert Gehret and the above mentioned quintet, were given by Carol Doty, who presented the affirmative arguments, and Betty Beirn, the negative. Page One Hundred Twelve COLOPI-ICN EVENING ENTERTAINMENTS URING the past school year, the citizens and students of Wyomissing have had the opportunity of enjoying three splendid entertainments in the High School Auditorium, under the auspices of the School District-two excellent lectures and one talking picture of a definitely educational type. On the evening of November ninth, Dr. Michael Dorizas, a member of the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania, who has spoken to the school on former occasions, gave a fine il- lustrated lecture on Germany. Dr. Dorizas discussed Germany's manufacture of armaments and other apparent preparations for War, her scientific progress, and the life and Welfare of her people. On February eighth, the interested public had the pleasure of hearing for the second time, Major james Sawders. With the aid of interesting illustrations, Major Sawders delivered a vividly descriptive and very instructive discourse on Chile. Major Sawders said that Chile is one of the strong A B C powers of South America, referring to Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. This talk was as enthusiastically received as Was Major Sawders' previous lecture here. An experiment in evening entertainment was tried March twenty-second, When, for the first time, educational talking pic- tures were presented to the audience. Both scientific and musi- cal subjects were included. The audience Was very well pleased. lt is hoped that similar programs will be offered next year. Page One Hundred Thirteen SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT NIGHT CHOOL Entertainment Night, which was held on May six- teenth, instead of being representative of all extra-curricu- lar departments, consisted entirely of musical numbers. The program was opened by a march played by the School Band, the rendition of which showed a marked improvement over that of former years. The combined Glee Club is to be highly praised for so beautifully rendering several choral selections. These selec- tions were chosen from a group of numbers which the Glee Club has been practicing for some time. The reader will remember with pleasure the High School Quartet,-Harry Werner, Bernard Heffelfinger, Iohn Ruth, and lames Harper, who, accompanied by Anna Kaufman, have sung for the school on previous occasions. This program was favored with their reappearance, when they sang several de- lightful numbers. The loss of this group through graduation will indeed be felt by the school. Much credit is also due to the Iunior High School Band which made its first appearance at this program. Hearty thanks are extended to this rapidly rising organization for the fine contribution. A most clever operetta, Honey Pirates, was presented by the grade school. The plot centered around several naughty bears, and their booty,-a pot of honey. Since the program Was considered such a complete success, it is incumbent upon the school to discover and develop the talents which many students possess, in order that they may gain an ever fuller appreciation of music, and reap the bene- fits of its fine culture and influence.

A remarkable performance was staged,-a most pleasing sight to Witness. Many beautiful and clever dances were staged by the various classes. The pageant was enjoyed by a vast audience. Members of both Iunior and Senior High Schools enacted the story based on the poem The Legend of Eros and Psyche. The part of Psyche, daughter of the King and Queen of Lusinia, was taken by Guinevere Diedrick, the parts of the King and Queen by Iohn Ruth, and Carol Doty. Psyche is so beautiful that she excels all other maidens in beauty and grace. She even surpasses Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, por- trayed by Elsa Livingood. The anger of Aphrodite is aroused and she commands her son, Eros, to cause Psyche to fall in love With ct hideous monster. Eros, who is represented by Clarence Ulmer, falls under Psyche's charm when carrying out his mother's order. This causes dire consequences. Eros finally humbles himself before Zeus and after repeated efforts, wins the hand of Psyche. The other characters were: The Delphic Oracle, Frederick McGavin, Zeus, Harry Werner, Persephone, Candis Ginn, Death, Conrad Busch, Arbist, Robert Fleck, Daughters of King, Helen Heck and Mildred Mogel, Satyrs, George Bennethurn, Russel Seidel, Henry Craurner, Herman Staub, and Grant Stutzrnan, Athletes, Meyer Woodnick, Burton Winkler, and lames Gearhart.

The program has been designed to bring out four important aspects of our local district-scenic beauty, the customs and speech of the people, their handicraft, and their architecture. Although surrounded by Pennsylvania Germans, We confess to having practically no acquaintance with them, and in conse- quence have found the study of this subject increasingly in- teresting. Our information has been gathered by reading books on the subject, by making excursions into the country, by visiting museums and old homesteads, and by conversing with the people themselves. Our research has disclosed the wealth of beauty exhibited by them in architecture, in art- glass, pottery, and furniture,-and in intellectual attainment. Our purpose in presenting this program is to create an awareness and an appreciation of the natural beauty and the Wealth of tradition which is our heritage. While pursuing this subject We have come to realize that it is our own responsi- bility to preserve these traditions and to contribute to the beauty of our surroundings. - Page One Hundred Sixteen COLOPHON Sept. 4. 5 13 28 Oct. 6. 18 19. 30 Nov. 2 9 15 24 28 Dec. 7. 19 20 21 26 Ian. 7 11 17 18 23. 25 31 Feb. 2. 8 15 SCHOOL CALENDAR CSO calledj Senior Class banquet at Chef's.
