From the time of our entrance into seventh grade, until we emerge as seniors, we are constantly building this structure with the knowledge and new experiences we gain. Each educational experience then becomes a new note to be added to the gradually emerging melody. Throughout this Colophon, music is represented in the many aspects of school life. Academics, activities, and sports each add a different tone of harmony to the music, which is culminated by the final performance of the composi- tion. Therefore, with the theme of music, the Senior Class, as it prepares to take its final bow, presents this Colophon as a record of its achievements.

Wyomissing Schools have been most fortunate in having a progressive and cooperative School Board. Comprised of five elected citi- zens of the community, the members have given devotedly of their time to the education and welfare of Wyo- missing's youth. The School Board this year performed a great service by giving its full cooperation and sponsor- ship to the Outdoor Education Pro- gram. Present members of the School Board are: Mr. Donald Charlton, presidentg Mr. John S. McConaghy, vice-presidentg Mrs. J. Richard Kitz- miller, secretary, Mrs. W. Raymond McGonigle, assistant secretary, Mr. ,lohn W. Bowman, treasurerg and Mr. Llewellyn R. Bingaman, the appointed solicitor. Within the Board there are four committees: one giving special at- tention to Buildings and Grounds, one to Finance, one to Teachers, and one to Health and Welfare. At monthly meetings, the Board and Mr. Rank dis- cuss the administration of finances, the determination of school policy, and other facts pertinent to an efficient ed- ucational system. FIRST ROW-Mr. S. Olson, Mrs. R. Schatz, Mrs. N. Hill, Mr. H. Westkott, Mrs K. Meinig, Mr. W. Breitinger, Mr. G. Smith. SECOND ROW-Mr. W. Rosenberger M R. DeWitt, Mrs. R. Peters, Mr. J. Weber, Mr. W. Coblentz, Mr. E. Hohl, Mrs. W. Fahrenholt Parent Crashers' ,llssociafialr What could more adequately de- scribe the purpose of the Parent Teach- ers' Association than its own theme: The Child -- His Home, His School, His Communityn? Wyomissing's PTA is indeed dedicated toward that end with its program formulated to pro- mote and improve all relations be- tween the children and their home, school, church, and community. Con- geniality and dedication are the key- notes of the organization's policy. One of the specific functions of our PTA has been to provide our schools with some needed extras by sponsor- ing money-raising projects. Last fall they devoted their October meeting to a discussion of the proposed new rec- reation facilities for the borough. Officers of the organization are: Mr. Hans Westkott, presidentg Mrs. Robert J. Schatz, first vice-president, Mrs. Wil- liam McShane, second vice-presidentg Mr. William L. Rosenberger, treasurerg Mrs. Richard C. Peters, secretary, Mr. Earl W. Hohl, grade school representa- tive, and Mr. Randolph A. DeWitt, high school representative. PTA Book Fair. Mr. Rank. Mr. Shafer. Administration Excellence in administration is the result of carefully chosen personnel who are competent in their profession. Such men are Mr. Allen Rank, the supervising principal, and Mr. B. Henry Shafer, the high school administrator. Mr. Rank, long-standing key-man in the slot position, received his education at Princeton, Harvard, and Columbia. He also actively participates in numerous youth organizations including the Pennsylvania lnterscholastic Athletic Association, the Y.M.C.A., and the Berks County High School Athletic Association. Mr. Shafer, a comparative new- - corner to the borough, joined the local schools in 1954. He received Efficiency is our motto, his education at Susquehanna and Columbia Universities, and is now completing work on his doctorate at the University of Maryland. Since arriving, he has used his teaching experience by serving on the faculty as senior guidance counselor and problems of democracy instructor. Aiding Mr. Rank, Mr. Shafer, and the students, in every possible way, is Miss Jeanne Albright, the office secretary-receptionist. Mrs. Nancy Troutman controls the treasury as school bookkeeper. 8 Habla espanol? In the subjunctive mood. languages Among our educational advantages at Wyomissing High are the modern languages, French and Spanish, along with ancient Latin. On the fourth grade level, Mrs. Yvonne Millet introduces spoken French. This course is continued through the eighth grade where it, then elective, becomes more advanced. In senior high, Mrs. Madeline Knipe teaches the rudiments of the French language to the eleventh grade students. The senior French pupils read fables and stories concerning French history, interspersed with grammatical drill. Taught by Mrs. Knipe, the first year Spanish students begin to master the language of our neigh- bors south of the border . The Comment vous appele1.v0us? second year Spanish students trans- late old Spanish fables, learn some ancient Spanish history, and meet new grammar and verb construc- tions. Ninth grade brings the formid- able challenge of Latin under the direction of Mrs. Florence Schrack. Noun cases and verb tenses confront the eager freshmen, while the sophomores struggle with advanced grammar and Roman mythology. For those with any spirit remaining, the combined third and fourth year class studies the Catilinian con- spiracy by Cicero or the Aeneid by Virgil. .1 ,,,....-..q- 9 Going over the greybooks . Snglzslz English is probably one of the most important subjects at Wyomissing, for its skillful use is a tremendous asset in any field. Our junior high English teachers are Mrs. Helen Getz, Mrs. Florence Schrack, and Mr. Charles Goodling. Mr. Russell Milford is the instructor in the senior high grades. In seventh through eleventh grades, students submit ten book reports an- nually. Junior high students are drilled on spelling, grammar, and com- position, and study literature in short stories and plays. In tenth and eleventh grades, the students use the Reader's Digest as an aid in vocabulary study, sophomores study general literature with a unit on Julius Caesar, juniors concentrate on American literature, and seniors de- vote their time to English literature. Because it is required for graduation, the seniors write an Investigative Theme on a literary topic. Friday themes also give practice in various types of composition and style. This is how you do it. Behind closed doors. Do you agree? Mathematics ll In order to give each student a suf- ficient background for college entrance, Wyomissing offers a varied program in mathematics. junior high students in the seventh and eighth grades are introduced to high school math by Miss Thelma V. Brunner. In ninth grade the pupils are confronted with literal problems and the well-known Miss Brunner-'s Binomialsn. Mr. Henry Y. Brubaker takes over in tenth grade with second year alge- bra. In plane geometry the juniors carefully consider the theorems and axioms which are applicable to problems involving triangles and circles. Taught by Mr. Brubaker, seniors in the scientific course study trigonome- try and solid geometry. These stu- dents are given the opportunity to elect a two period per week advanced math course which is conducted by Mr. Clarence Weik. Mr. Brubaker has charge of the senior review math course during the first semester. Smal Sciences Wyomissing High offers to its stu- dents varied Social Studies courses with Mr. john Reitz and Mr. Charles Goodling teaching the junior high pupils and Mr. Charles Gebensleben and Mr. B. Henry Shafer instructing the senior high. In seventh grade, Mr. Reitz intro- duces the students to basic geography and history. The eighth grade ad- vances to American history taught by Mr. Reitz and geography of the United States and other countries under the direction of Mr. Goodling. Mr. Geb- ensleben and Mr. Reitz share the teaching of the ninth grade civics classes. On the senior high level, Social Studies becomes more specialized. Here the students examine their sub- ject matter more thoroughly. The tenth grade receives world history and the eleventh grade, American history, both of which are taught by Mr. G. Once a student becomes a senior, Mr. Shafer's Problems of Democracy class- es prevail. Our democratic form of government is discussed on the local, state, and federal levels. Will it work? Sciences In its science department, Wyo- missing High provides excellent op- portunities and facilities for studying the sciences. The seventh, eighth, and ninth grades are taught general science courses, under the instruction of Mr. Randolph DeWitt and Mr. Clarence Weik. Here the pupils learn about the human body, matter, energy, and the importance of industry. Mr. jesse Sheetz teaches the tenth grade its first laboratory science, biolo- gy. The students are confronted with the dissection of worms, clams, fish, and starfish. In physics, Mr. DeWitt stresses five major topics: light, sound, heat, me- chanics, and electricity. The eleventh grade students can often be seen strug- gling over difficult physics experi- ments. For the seniors who want a science without emphasis on mathematics, a senior science course is offered, under the direction of Mr. Weik. In the field of chemistry, Mr. Sheetz conducts the senior classes. Twice a week these seniors have a lab per- iod where they apply various chemi- cal principles. Mr. Weik's Wizards lsn't that right? Psychology and Saciolagy Psychology and sociology, offered to seniors, are definite assets to our curriculum. Taught by Mrs. Madeline Knipe, this course is con- ducted in a circle formation instead of the usual formal setting. Psychology is the science of the mind. This subject embraces the why's and wherefore's of idiosyncrasies, emotions, habits, desires, and in- tellect. Psychology probes for the reasons be- hind the basic qualities of personality, and in doing so, helps one to understand himself. The emphasis in this course is on you as an in- dividual. Sociology explains more about the social and physical environment and how they change our lives. The emphasis here is on the interplay between the student and his sur- roundings. He examines his heredity and en- vironment and learns how to live in society. Pupils examine their culture heritage - the importance of culture heritage, the power of custom, and how and why culture changes. Delinquents Helping hand. J-fame Scanamics The Home Economics course presents nu- merous opportunities to excel in quite a few fascinating fields. Advised and directed by Mrs. Ruth Wagner, the seventh grade stu- dents explore the various facets of nutrition, sewing, good grooming, and cooking. The eighth grade concentrates on knitting, child care, advanced sewing, and costume design. For one semester, the ninth grade schedule is completely reversed. The mysteries of cooking are introduced to the boys while the doors of the shop department are thrown open to the girls. On the senior high level, the Home Eco- nomics course becomes a specialty, depending on the student's abilities and particular in- terests. Home Economics prepares the student for the future in many ways. ln the fields of sew- ing, nutrition, and interior decoration, many girls discover vocations for study at college. Mrs, Wagner's workshop is always the scene of much activity for girls in every class. I-4 Mr. Shirk and apprentice. Kusincss Sdumfiou ASDFg LKJ and so goes the first year typ- ing class drill. Under the direction of Mr. Charles Goodling, students learn typing, short- hand, and briefhand. Wyomissing High School is one of the four schools in the state offering briefhand, a useful course which is new this year. Typing is compulsory in the eighth grade and again in the tenth. Any student who desires an additional third or fourth year may take it in his junior or senior year. Shorthand is completed in a two year course. In addition to the previously mentioned courses, students may learn how to operate the mimeograph and ditto machines. The publish- ing of the school's newspaper, under the guid- ance of Mr. Goodling, requires the knowledge of many of these skills. Not only do the students and faculty use the services of this department, but also clubs and organizations find it essential to their ac- tivities. Nearly all school functions necessitate assistance from the Business Education Depart- ment. IS Industrial ,Arts The Industrial Arts Department, directed by Mr. D. C. Shirk, is composed of two main branches, woodworking and drafting. The junior high boys take three periods of woodworking per week in seventh grade, two in eighth, and one in ninth. The senior high elective students take from one to five periods per week. This class acquaints the students with tools, materials, and their practical use It gives the boys an idea of how industries operate and trains them in various skills so that 1 they may, perform useful jobs around the house The other segment of Industrial Arts is drafting, equally as important as woodwork ing. Here the students learn how to make and interpret working drawings, the language of industry . The eighth grade boys take one per iod of drafting per week and the ninth grade r boys take two periods. There are also elective students from senior high. This course is, in deed, a vital part in any boy's education Now is the time Music The Music Department, directed by Mr. Robert Emery, provides an outlet for students to show their musical talents. In addition to singing, the seventh grade learns the instruments of the orchestra, while in eighth grade, the students learn about the famous composers. Ninth grade students go into four-part har- mony to prepare them for chorus in senior high. During the school year, the music department presents two shows: the Christmas Candlelight Service and the Night of Music. Christmas Program Rehearsal. Listen to the Mockingbirdsf' ,Ari The Art Department is a center of busy activity throughout the entire school year. Under the watchful eyes of Mrs. Eleanore L: Kains, temporarily assisted by Miss Helen Marie Printz, students are encouraged to do creative work. Making dia- ramas, working with metal and linoleum, and illustrating music in three dimension are the various mediums in which the pupils gain experience. While participating in the Outdoor Education Program, junior high students made free-hand drawings of nature- at its best. Expert advice. ingenuity counts. 16 Bibrary Here in this place of study and research, the students compile reports, work on investigations, and seek new books to read. A wide range of magazines and newspapers keeps both the faculty and student body well-informed on current events, latest scientific progress, and even the newest fashion styles. Under the supervision of Mrs. Heffner, the librarian, the seventh grade is instructed in a guidance course, which provides the knowledge for efficient use of the library facilities. Reference work. Learning the use of the library. Phofagraphy Throughout the school year, students see fellow classmates with cameras at various school activities and sports events. These shutterbugs are members of the three year old photography class, directed by Mr. D. C. Shirk. The students study different types of cameras from the simple box to the complex press type. The members of the class not only take their own pictures but also learn how to develop, print, and enlarge them. This is an old folding Kodak. Handle With Care. 17 jump it up. Be an individual! Fascination. Physical Sdueafieu Just what is physical education? This question may seem very easy to answer by saying learning and participating in sports , but at Wyomissing High School this course, or gym , is something more. Taught by Miss Doris Ganter and Mr. Bernard Allison, this branch involves activities which are mentally stimulating and skills that will be useful in the future. Both girls and boys have a chance to par- ticipate in extracurricular activities through in- tramurals and bowling. Hygiene In hygiene, under the instruction of Miss Doris Ganter and Mr. Bernard Allison, pupils meet once a week to discuss their health, per- sonalities, and other related qualities. Miss Ganter teaches the junior high girls anatomy, body changes, and good grooming habits. The senior high girls discuss hygiene and marriage problems. Mr. Allison instructs the boys in personal relations with emphasis on personality. This year he also introduced the fundamentals of survival. Driver Zfrezining This year Mr. D. C. Shirk introduced a new idea into the tenth grade driver training course, the horror book , or a notebook of accident clippings designed to impress the stu- dents with the terrible results of careless driv- ing. The prospective drivers see movies, re- ceive pamphlets, and listen to various lectures. These oncefa-week classes are supplement- ed by road training under the supervision of the West Lawn Motor Company. 18 Husfadiaus Wyomissing enjoys, perhaps, one of the most beautiful campuses and schools in the area. For this, a vote of thanks should go to the custodians, George Goddard, George Rider, George Angstadt, Jr., Paul Young, Paul Staudt, and Paul Linderman. The former three keep the classrooms, halls, and auditorium sanitary While the latter are responsible for the well- trimmed bushes and groomed campus. The men are always ready to aid any stu- dent who needs help in opening a recalcitrant locker. Eafetcria Every day at 11:30 and again at 12:15, the monitors lead columns of hungry students to the cafeteria. Previously managed by Mrs. Wagner, the dietician, our cafeteria is now under the supervision of Mr. Melvin Arnold, the food service manager. He is assisted by Mrs. Angela Ashcroft and Mrs. Angela Bauscher. Behind the scenes several upperclassmen earn their daily lunches by efficiently serving, cashiering, and dishwashing. Medical Stay Wyomissing has at its disposal when need- ed a capable medical staff. This includes Mrs. Annie Knappenberger, Dr. Leonard Woodring, and Dr. Arthur Jones. Mrs. Knappenberger, the nurse, can be found in the infirmary ready to help any student who feels ill. Dr. Wood- ring comes to the school frequently to deliver the Mantoux test for tuberculosis and give physical examinations to all students. Dr. jones regularly visits the school to inspect teeth. Every student is also given a sight and hearing test. 19 After the battle. Chief Cooks. This won't hurt Actzvlfzcs There is music wherever there is a harmony, order, or proportion.

At the top of the ladder of school activities rests the Student Cofopera- tive Council, better known to the stu- dents as the Co-op. ln order to promote and maintain worthy stu- dent activities and to advance the general welfare of the school, the Co- op has weekly Wednesday afternoon meetings with Jeff Keeler presiding. Here school problems and new ideas are discussed by homeroom represen- tatives. One of the most important steps taken this year was the inauguration of the award system upon which a committee had been working for more than a year. Under this system stu- dents accumulate points for their ac- tivities and receive awards according to their number of points. As the leading organization in the school, the Co-op, under its executive committee and advisor, Miss Brunner, has had a profitable and influential year.

Holaplzvn Staff The month of May, 1958, saw the newly elected officers of the 1959 Colo- phon eagerly gathering their ideas for the theme of the yearbook. After Music was chosen as the topic, the editors, with the help of Mr. Milford and Mr. Goodling, assembled their nebulous notions and drew up the first dummy. Tllliis was the beginning of the 1959 Colo- p on. The officers of the Yearbook were chosen by the class. Elected to the sev- eral offices were: jane Sisk, editorg Dave Kozloff, business manager, and Pat Hand- werk, treasurer. Appointed were: Susie Kline, assistant editorg Linda Lerch, aca- demicsg Kathy Templin and Dick Troy, activitiesg Mary Trexler and Phil Brum- bach, sports, Susan Saylor, underclassf meng Ann Homer, art, Mary Helen Houck and Gary Wilkinson, seniorsg Sandy Shanfelder, typingg and Martin Reichert, photography. Mr. Shirk asf sisted in the photography department. When June, 1959, finally came to Wyomissing High, the seniors on the Col- ophon Staff had every right to feel a true sense of happy accomplishment.

Notzolool Honor Society The Wyomissing High chapter of the National Honor Society is one of the charter members of the organiza- tion. Membership in the Society has long been regarded as a true symbol of secondary school achievement. To be eligible for election, a student must be either a junior or a senior, and in the first quartile of his class. He must also possess the qualities of citi- zenship, scholarship, leadership, and service. Selection for ,membership is made by the faculty at the beginning of the third quarter and includes fifteen per cent of the senior class and ten per cent of the junior class. The second year members of the Society were Patricia Handwerk, Susan Kline, Diane Sternbergh, Mary Trex- ler, and Richard Troy. The seniors se- lected this year were Jane Sisk, David Kozloff, and Mary Helen Houck. The students elected from the junior class were Ross Wademan, William Lau- bach, Geoffrey Stoudt, John Meharg, Henry Koch, john Coburn, and Suz- anne Reinsel. A welcome for our visitors. Laughter is universal. Eiarczyrz Students For the fourth consecutive year, Wyomissing High again participated in the New York Herald Tribune For- um's foreign student program. This year, in early January, the high school played host for two weeks to two stu- dents, a boy and a girl, both seventeen years old. The girl, Miss Nadia Domian, was from Beirut, Lebanon. During her visit in Wyomissing, she stayed with Susie Saylor and her parents. The boy, Hasan Gucluyildiz, from Bursa, Turkey, boarded with Susie Kline and her family. During their two week stay, Nadia and Hasan attended regular classes and visited others that interested them. Both students participated in discus- sions of American, Turkish, and Leb- anese customs and problems. They also attended school extra-curricular activities. At the end of their stay in Wyof missing, the two visitors were pre- sented with gifts from the various stu- dent organizations at an assembly in their honor.

The students in the seventh through ninth grades took part in an outdoor education program which was held at Camp Conrad Weiser. For one week, the students lived and learned in the outdoors. Assisted by stu- dent teachers from Kutztown State Teachers College, the junior high faculty lived with the students and became better acquainted with them. The classes were devoted mostly to the application of nature to the particular sub- ject. In the evening, programs of entertain- ment and education were presented. In Wyomissing, the first step in the out- door education program had been planned over the past year as an experiment. Much preparation had been made for the program by the school faculty, administration, and parents. P.T.A. meetings were devoted to the discussion of the many problems in- volved and finally, it was decided that Sep- tember would be the month for its inaugura- tion. Wholehearted approval was the reaction of the parents, and the students in the sev- enth, eighth, and ninth grades eagerly await- ed the week of outdoor education. Please hurry! The Nature Boys.

To increase farther the students' power of reasoning and confidence in public speaking, it is required that the contestants write, mem- orize, and deliver their own speeches, which are judged by a group of teachers on the subject matter, the literary style, and oratorical delivery. All contestants sub- mitted their written essays to Mr. Milford in late January and before the assembly six people were chosen as the final orators. These were: Sally Levan, who spoke on Adam to Atom , concerning propaganda, Carroll Conner, on A Fear Stricken World g Sheila Finn, F on Segregation , Geoffrey Stoudt, on You as an Individual , Henry Koch, on What Men Live By, the Ten Commandantsng and john An- drews, on Three American Myths - Science, Christianity, and Civili- zation . irst Prize - ulndividualismf' With several rehearsals and some advice, the candidates pre- pared themselves for the mid-Febru- ary assembly. The judges, Mrs. Heffner, Mrs. Getz, and Mr. Good- ling, selected Geoffrey Stoudt as the first place winner, Carroll Con- ner, second place, and Sally Levan, third. 36 FIRST ROW-Mr. Gebensleben, P.

Bunnell, Debut: Cram Arguing the pros and cons of the American educational system was the primary object for the debate team this year. Under the mentorship of Mr. Gebensleben, the junior and senior members of the club prepared their ideas on the topic and wrote four-minute talks. During the latter part of February, the members presented their views on education in as- semblies at Wyomissing, Governor Mifflin, and Wilson High Schools. These de- bate assemblies offered ideal opportunities for the proper presentation of a vital subject. Through the speeches of the debate team members and the ensuing discussions, which were opened to the floor, many views and problems were thoroughly investi- gated, improved upon, or chal- lenged. As it was last year, this year's de- bates were not divided into pro and con arguments. Rather, each mem- ber presented his own opinions, consequently, there was much more room for discussion as various as- pects of the topic could be pre- sented. The members of the club this year were Diane Sternbergh, Dick Troy, Harold Bunnell, Pat Hand- werk, joci Coburn, John McCon- aghy, Geof Stoudt, Henry Koch, and John Andrews.

The boys labor not only during the per- formance but also preceding rehearsals building scenery and later assuming the tedious task of cleaning up. This year there were two changes encountered by the Stage Crew. Mr. DeWitt volunteered to be the new ad- visor, and Co-operative purchased uni- forms for the members. The majority of the responsibility lies in the hands of stage manager Martin Reichert. Other students in their respective fields of lighting, sound, and projection are Leon Grim, Ross Wademan, Terry DeBo1d, and Henry Koch. There are several other boys who are stage hands and who will, in future years, serve as the learned specialists. Without the efforts of these boys no school assembly or theatrical produc- tion could be a complete success. Since this particular group usually fails to receive recognition, we are hap- py to be able to remind you of the in- dispensable Stage Crew.

Largely composed of volunteer students, this one group comprises the cafeteria crew, P.A. an- nouncers, the gym crew, and the bike room attendants. The cafeteria crew did much to re- duce the rush of students into the lunch room. Because of the increase in the number of pupils, the monitors had a more demanding job than in previous years and should be com' mended for their service. The public address announcers, chosen last year, did much to improve the P.A. system. Through a ques- tionnaire, suggestions were made and improvements in the delivering of an- nouncements were effected. When the basketball season came, the gym crew was on hand to supervise the crowds in the gym during the home games.

Orchestra Under the direction of Mr. Robert Emery, the orchestra at Wyomissing High School has developed into a highly coordinated group over the past years. This year was no exception as the orchestra could call on the abilities of many talented stu- dents. Throughout the term, the orchestra played at combined assemblies and other school affairs. K Many of the students in orchestra gained invaluable experience from partici- pating in the many rehearsals which took place at 7:30 on week-day mornings. Margaret Ross and John Andrews, violinists, took part in district orchestra and some of the others were active in the dance band. Quite a few of the members performed in county orchestra at Governor Mifflin in December. Although the orchestra was small i in number, it was large in will- ingness and ability.

The fifth and sixth period monitors at Wyomissing High, under the super- vision of Mr. H. Y. Brubaker, are com- posed of the junior and senior boys. It is their duty to coordinate the lunch line and eliminate confusion during the cafeteria periods. The junior boys, headed by John Co- burn, helped to alleviate the rush to the lunch room during the fifth period while the senior boys, headed by Dave Kozloff, took on the responsibility dur- ing the sixth period. The ninth, tenth, and some of the eleventh grade boys also were campus and cafeteria monitors. Supervised by Miss Thelma Brunner, these students performed a valuable service in main- taining the beauty of the school and its lawn. Often looked upon by others as par- ticularly easy, the duties of the hall, campus, and cafeteria monitors actual- ly require perseverance and coopera- tion among the student members. 52 The Fire Platoon, composed of the Single file!

Along with other stu- dents, the members of the platoon as- sisted the Civil Defense workers in aking proper care of the victims . The Fire Platoon also conducted fire drills throughout the year to prepare students for evacuation and to elimi- nate any problems of congestion which might arise.

Together with rigor- ous training and practice scrimmages with Wilson, Reading High layvees, and Cocalico Union, it became evident that Wyomissing was not to be disre- garded in the newly formed Inter- County League. f Optimism was at its apogee as the Warriors managed a 14-13 victory over Collegeville, the only team to defeat Wyomissing in '57. The optimistic supporters were not to be disappointed, for the team, co-captained by Jeff Keeler and Phil Brumbach, compiled a 7-1 log while attaining one-third of the I-C League crown. The Warriors not only earned a fine record but also set a one-game school record of 60 points and missed by only twelve points a County season record set in 1924. 60 Senior Warriars Phil Brumbach Ieff Keeler Dave Kozloff Dave Charlton John Walbom Gary Wilkinson X ,bv x Stan Huyerr Q S -PF'-'N Harold Bunnell Dick Troy Under that ball.

Com- pleting the big five were: Roger Rosen- berger, Ron Bauer, Bill Shanfelder, and Mike Peters while a bench-full of competent reserves played a significant part in the team's success. After crushing every opponent in the first half of conference play, the high-flying Warriors were dealt their first taste of defeat by Conrad Weiser.

Following several days of practice in the gym for the batteries, the team members adjourned to the A- field. Here, on the diamond, skills in pitching, fielding, hitting, and catching were practiced, improved, and perfected. Exhibition games and league play saw the spirit and ability of the outfit re- sult in a general trend of im- provement for the Warrior bat- ters. jim Klein, doubling up with Bill Acheson at third, Bob Hahn, and Paul Burns, outfield- er, supplied the team with com- petent pitching arms.

Kvaclzcs Again this year, Wyomissing's scholastic athletic teams benefited from the training and advice of a fine complement of coaches. Guid- ing the Warriors to another out- standing performance in the '58 football campaign was Mr. Geben- sleben, head coach. Assisting Mr. G. in the capacity of line coach was Mr. Weik, a newcomer to the coaching staff. The varsity basket' ball team reflected the abilities of Mr. Reitz's coaching by also present- ing a fine accounting of themselves. The 1.V.'s also proved the worth of a fine tutor, Mr. Sheetz, by enjoying not only a Division Championship but also the County Championship. Directing the rapidly progressing track team to several places in county meets this year was Mr. De- Witt. Mr. Reitz, switching in the spring to baseball, developed the skills of pitching, fielding, and bat- ting.

The qualified manager, whose sphere of influence encompasses many diver- sified and strenuous duties, is a com- posite of medical practitioner, ideal- ist, and team servant. With a keen knowledge for athletic equipment and medical supplies, he incessantly performs his tasks with that agree- able attitude found only in a man- ager. Under his control and close scrutiny are: the practice uniforms, the locker room maintenance, the game equipment, the officials' pay, and that bottomless pit of one inch tape. He carefully regulates the flow of salt tablets, extra cleats, orange quarters, chewing gum, and moist towels, all for the benefit of his beloved team. Faithfully ad- hering to the endless desires of the players, he leads a life of obscurity and receives no recognition as such.

The treasury was advanced by proceeds of a student bus to the Jenkintown football game in October and a school dance in April. February found the class members proudly displaying shining class rings. The final class party in June concluded the school year and the mem- bers were graduated from the Silly Sophomoresn to the Jolly Juniors . 85 1 ,funinr Elass FIRST ROW-B. Keller, C. Conner, S.

Gartner ,funiar Hlass This year, another enthusiastic group returned to Wyomissing High School to capture the title of the Jolly juniors . Early in September, the class of 1960 accepted the many responsibilities and spread its influence through many school organizations. In the Co-opera- tive, Fred Borchers became the vice-president, while Steve Hartranft, Martha Gartner, Bill Laubach, and Sandy Heisler represented their class. Ross Wade- man was the class president, Henry Koch, vice-president, ,lack Meharg, treas- urerg Kathy Coyle, secretary, and Martha Gartner, historian. Members of the class of 1960 offered their services as P.A. announcers, cafeteria workers, and as staff members for the school newspaper. They par- ticipated in basketball, track, tennis, and baseball. Urging their teams were the cheerleaders, jean Beaver and Martha Gartner. During the basketball season this class operated the candy stand at home games and in January it held a Saturday night dance at school. Drawing the school term to a close for the Iuniors were a class party and the juniorfSenior Prom. Their gay memories as underclassmen would be remembered as they assumed the role of Serious Seniors . 87 Seniors The setting sun, and music at the close, As the last taste of sweet, is sweetest last, Writ in remembrance more than things long past.

Welcoming the New Year, 1956. Water Babies. Elass History Back in 1946 the diary of this class was begun. That year was highlighted by a trip to Lutz's with Miss Guenther. ln first grade we progressed a little more along the line of education when we began to read Puff and Jane and to play games such as Pom-pom-poly-o. In second grade we reached the realms of higher finance, when we were taught how to count money. We wrote a little more in the pages of our history in third grade by adding the multiplication tables to our list of accom- plished arts. Hop-a-long Cassidy also be- came the idol of the boys. By fourth grade most of us were Cub Scouts or Brownies and we could be seen playing Civil War games at lunch time. In fifth grade the girls would play soc- cer with the boys at recess and all of us can remember our dancing classes. Then, sixth grade arrived. We had reached the half-way point in our diary and, as the big wheels of the school, we participated in the annual Halloween fes- tivities at the high school. As we entered seventh grade, our class experienced a letdown from the suprem- acy of grade school. Some of us braved Heave Ho! Glass History Inter-Club for the first time, and in math class Miss Brunner taught us how to fol- low through . During our second year in junior high, we began to feel more at ease. Mr. Stradtman proved to us that sodium and water do not mix. Ninth grade saw us becoming ac' quainted with Mrs. Kitzmiller's chewing gum bag. Some of the boys represented their school on the playing field for the first time. Tenth grade found us in our first year of senior high. The idea of choosing a class ring was paramount and our studies were regarded with more sincerity. We survived a flu epidemic and heavy snowstorms during our junior year, and many of us graduated from lowly pedestrians to expert drivers. The junior-Senior Prom became a reality. Finally, twelfth grade arrived and, as kings and queens of the school, we had to make sure that everything was running smoothly. College Boards now loomed in front of us. Our greatest expectation - to be graduated from high school - was realized and the senior year became just a stepping stone to the future. i Let's have a party. Where's the Sea and Ski?

With pride that he had accomplished the task which he had undertaken, the writer then stamped this work on the page. It was viewed as the symbol of the summit of the printer's work. In keeping with the origin and meaning of this word, we, the staff, have now done likewise to this, the 1959 edition of our yearbook, The Colophon, with confidence that our ef- forts were sincere and with the hope that we have been successful in depicting ac- curately Wyomissing High School, its pupils, its faculty, and the fruit of their labor. We now present this manuscript for its final approval. Ackuawlcdgmcnfs As a score of music is conceived in the mind of a composer, likewise was this year's Colophon born in the minds of the Class of 1959. While We planned the book and its contents, there were many others to whom we are indebted for help- ing this score of Wyomissing High School to be published. We especially wish to thank our three advisors: Mr. Milford for his helpful guidance and proofreading, Mr. Shirk for his aid in photography, and Mr. Goodling for handling finances. Our appreciation also goes to Mr. Deininger for picturesg to Ensinger Printing Service for the printingg to National Publishing Company for the binding and coversg to the administration, faculty, and student body for their assistanceg and to the patrons for their generosity.
