SENIORS: This year began with a bang—nice and quietly. Unobtrusively, plans were made for the Senior square dance —and a success it was, too! We sold coke and some nourishment, and even tried to help Mr. Wirt clean up afterwards! Our next big deed was the play—and how well we’ll remember that—the feud between the cast, the times we went to Hornell with Mr. Wirt to get props, to return them, and the classes we didn’t have. Opening night finally arrived and the manv-times-mumbled-over lines gave an excellent performance. A surprise birthday party was given at Austin’s where our “leading lady” entertained the entire cast that evening. We were fortunate enough to leave in the hands of the oncoming seniors a hard-fought for, and well- earned basketball Cup for which many of our seniors sacrificed much of their time. As for the Yearbook, we ought not forget the fun and hard work we put into it—taking pictures of our ac- tivities, and gathering our wits together to the best of our abilities to do our write-ups, eating dinner, night after night in the cafeteria, working in order to finish the Yearbook in due time, staying after school and not giving up until away after midnight!, when the last sheet was handed in. Upon completing the Alcen the seniors turn their attention to one of the most memorable events of the senior year, the Senior Ball, and later, ('lass Day, Baccalaureate, and lastly GRADUATION.
