FROM THE ARCH IVES OF OUR SPORT CLUB
Introduction
Presenting a complete chronicle of our fifty years in the field of
sport is an impossibility, since over the years many earlier records and
other data were either lost or discarded, and in many cases accounts of
events and persons involved during our formative years were not even
chronicled. This unfortunate situation persisted for many years, and it
was only during the comparatively later years of our activities that a
small number of our members took it upon themselves to maintain ac
counts of our activities and progress.
Because of this confused state of affairs, it was decided to divide
our fifty years of existence into five decades, and entrust the research
of each of these periods to a person or persons who probably was most
knowledgeable in that particular area. Accordingly, John Mayersfeld
was selected for the first decade since he was probably the prime mover
and the guiding spirit in the organization of our first Sport Section.
Ted Kereczmann and Rudy Rack were drafted for the second
decade, since both are “history buffs” and maintain personal files con
cerning our Club’s activities and development. The third ten years be
came the responsibility of John Jacoby and Frank Foilmer, who were
deeply involved in our activities during the Forties. John Blank, Werner
Fricker and Jimmy Pack were tapped for a report on the Fifties, a per
iod during which important organizational and administrative changes
took place in our athietic structure procedures in which these men
our Golden Years was en
took a leading part. The final decade
trusted to our ace chronicler, Club Secretary Karl Kreutzer, who has a
remarkable affinity for details, and maintains almost impeccable records
of all occurrences relating to our participation in the sports arena.
The final task of collating all this material and presenting it in a
logical and sequential form was assigned to a three-man committee
Werner Fricker, Ted Kereczmann and Rudy Rack who have proven
in the past their ability to work together on this type of undertaking.
We hope the result is satisfactory and gratifying, and in case someone
feels that a name or event has been omitted, we beg you to remember
that so many persons were involved in our fifty years of growth that it
is physically impossible to mention all of them, but you can rest as
sured that their contributions are greatly appreciated.

Sometime during the 19 53-54 season the Sport Club decided that it
would no longer pay any of the soccer team’s expenses, since none of
the players were participating in the Sport Club’s social activities. These
social affairs were conducted primarily to raise money for the soccer
teams, even though a majority of the Sport Club members were in
terested in cultural activities and not in sports. In order to meet this
crisis, some of our soccer afficionados such as Frank Follmer, John
Piatka, John Weber, Mike Lambert, Adam Weber, etc., met at Ted
Kereczmann’s “TW” Tavern and organized the “Old Timers,” with the
following officers: Frank Foilmer, President; Adam Weber, Secretary;
Mike Lambert, Treasurer. Their sole aim, which was faithfully and suc
cessfully carried out, was to raise money to maintain the soccer teams.
The advent of the 1954-55 season saw the possibility of our not hav
ing a League entrant because of a dearth of interested players. Visualiz
ing the possible loss of our League affiliation, John Piatka and John
Weber put on their recruiting boots and together with Henry Birken
heuer tramped through the wilds of Hunting Park night after night
speaking to such young fellows as John Blank, Mike and Frank Betsch,
Steve and Florian Kempf, et al. Either Piatka, Weber and Birkenheuer
were very smooth talkers (a talent which no one has cared to disclose
recently) or else they wielded very heavy clubs, for the result of their
First
efforts was not ONE team but TWO! Plus a new manager for the
team Henry Birkenheuer.
The Second Team, under the management of Eli Boros, won the
Championship of the League’s Second Division, but the decision was
protested by the Ramblers. Since the protest was never decided, the
Championship remained in limbo. Among the players on this Second
Team was an aggressive young man who did much to mold the team into championship calibre. This man naturally advanced to the front ranks
and played on our Major teams for fifteen consecutive years, serving as
Captain during many of those years. He also achieved United States
Olympic status, developed into one of our administrative top-notchers,
and today, after having hung up his cleats, serves us as President of
the United German-Hungarians.
During the 1954-55 season there was an international match between
the Philadelphia All-Stars and Nuremberg, in which Steve Kempf repre

THE GOLDEN YEARS
In this year of 1972, when our Club is celebrating its Fiftieth Anni
versary in the field of amateur sport, we can all proudly look back upon
those fifty years of participation. Particularly rewarding were the ten
years between 1960 and 1970.
In 1959 our Club’s ascendancy in the field of amateur soccer started
on the rise, and reached its climax with the winning of the United
States Amateur Soccer Championship in 1965. Such an achievement was
actually far beyond our fondest dreams until our “Cinderella” team of

Under the new format of the Sport Club, a Soccer Committee was
formed in 1961 with John Piatka as Chairman. Karl Kreutzer took over
the Chairmanship in 1963 and held the position through 1967. In 1968,
because of the adoption of our new Club Constitution, the title of Soc
cer Chairman was changed to that of Co-Ordinator of Soccer. Lou
Fruehauf was appointed the first Co-Ordinator under the new Consti
tution and is still in that post at the present time.

In leaving the 60’s we feel that it is no more than fitting to mention
some of our senior Club members who not only were pioneers in the
formation of our Club’s sports program, but also were instrumental in
the founding of the strong United Soccer League of Pennsylvania, and
the stabilization of the Eastern Pennsylvania Soccer Association.
Frank Foilmer was the first President of the United League. Upon
stepping down after having served nine terms in this arduous post, Frank
was unanimously elected Honorary President of the League. He was suc
