1958 - CLASS HISTOR - 1958 Do you remember our first yeors at Alfred - Almond . . . how we dreamed of being in High School . . . how we waited impatiently for our turn to be on the basketboll team or the cheerleading squad . . . how we longed to hear Mr. Stillman onnounce that we would have a class meeting to discuss our senior trip? Our grade-school years flew quickly by — the time was filled with class parties, with activities, with fun. Do you remember Peter sitting behind the paint easel . . . our Christmas operettas . . our United Nations Bazaar and our tea in sixth grade • • our puppet show . . . when we went swimming in the creek behind Mrs. Paine's house with our clothes on? We were deeply saddened in sixth grade by the news of Ann's death. How quiet and humble we felt, and how lovingly we remember her. How excited we were the first day of school in seventh grade! We were really growing up — we changed classes and felt very sophisticated carrying our new books! Mig ond Ray G. were our class attendants at our first formal dance. Alise ond Steve were eighth grade attendants, and Mig and Ray ruled our Freshman Dance os Princess and Prince. Remember struggling through our eighth grade regents to the tune of workmen's tools as they built the new addition? Our three one-act plays in our Freshman year were a great success, in spite of the tremendous arguments we had about them! Our Sophomore year was fabulous. It started off with a feeling of wonder at finally being members of that exclusive society called the Senior High. We worked ond had fun through the year, and attended our first Senior Ball in June. Bev D was the Sophomore attendant. At the very end of the year, we ordered our class rings! In October of our Junior year, we received our brond-new gold and black onyx rings. Some people didn't keep them long, though! We started in April to plan for our fair booth. Mig and Mary were general co-chairmen of the booth, with Mr. and Mrs. Cott as the adult chairmen. Mig and Benny were the attendants at the Senior Ball in May. We started June off with a bang by campaigning for our candidates for Student Council President. After an exciting campaign, Alise was elected President. Do you remember the professional bands march- ing up and down the halls? Also on that Moving Up Day many of our fellows and girls were awarded their A-A sports letters. We were so proud of them! After an exciting summer, with our fair booth a huge success . . . (Remember the episode of Mr. Burdett's teeth?), we returned to Alfred - Almond's classrooms for our long awaited Senior year. How excited we were! Plans flew for our Washington trip, and we began to get Senioritis. Our boys were members of the sports teams, and our girls cheered them on. After surviving our English regents in January, we began to work on our play Best Foot Forward, it was over, too quickly we felt. June was coming helter-skelter, and we were soon to graduate and leave our school. We felt hoppy at the prospect of new horizons, but sad at leaving our friends and our teachers. At Commencement, our memories traveled back over the years spent at Alfred - Almond — the fun and laughter and sometimes sorrows. It's been a wonderful life — Thanks everyone, for making it so!
