lid FRESHMEN Green was the yenr '5O,' And we, the Freslornen, were greener, A5 we go! loylin C. H. S., And envied the blnye Seniors. As we approach the day of our graduation. it is hard to believe that four years have passed since that bright fall morning when we entered Clinton High School as confused and immature Freshmen. We soon learned to overlook the scornful looks and jeers we received from our upperclassmen and became accustomed to the new schedule which we had to maintain. Time wore on and we entered enthusiastically into the activities which the High School presents. Unfortunately. we began hearing the ugly rumors of that awe-inspiring word Mid-years. We studied diligently, after hearing the dire predictions of the tormenting upper classes. As a result. the Class of 1953 sailed through the dreaded exams with flying colors. Finally. Iune approached and we breathed with a sigh of relief when we realized that the Foolish Fresh would soon be transformed into Sophisticated Sophs.

We soon acquired the art of doing as little homework as nec- essary and reveled in laughing at Freshmen with their arms laden with books. Mid-years came and went with all the last-minute cramming. Sports and other extra-curricular activities were attended with all the lusty enthusiasm that we could muster. Realizing that it was necessary to choose leaders for our class. we elected the following: President. Paul Ker- rigan: Vice-President. Ann Donohue: Treasurer. Peter O'Connell: Secretary. Margaret Schwab. Toward the end of the year we chose our class rings. which were different from those of past years. Iune again drew near. and we indulged ioyfully in the long summer months of freedom from studies.
