BLUE  &  GOLD
The Blue and Gold annual yearbook was first published at Schuylkill Haven High School in 1923 and continues
today.  In 1920, it was called Panorama and in 1921 it was called the Oriflamme.  At left, click on the photo to see
the intent of the first staff and on the right are three examples of the annual including the 1923 first volume.
Uniforms have changed since these early photos of Schuylkill Haven
basketball teams: the girl's team of 1922-23 above and the boy's team
of 1911-1912 at right.
Here are two
programs from the
Schuylkill Haven
team.  The example at
left is from the
Minersville game of
September 16, 1955
and on the right is a
program from a game
with Cass Township
on October 1, 1954,
which they
apparently won 25-0
according to the
pencil marks of the
original owner.
In 1953, the Schuylkill Haven football team won the first of many Eastern Conference championships.  It was the first championship in
this conference for the school.  On December 5, 1953, Rotary Field held it's first championship game.  Coach Bill Stauffer's Southern
Division champs defeated the Northern Division champ, Scranton Tech, 28-6.  Below is a ticket from that important game.
