The gym was beautifully decorated in blue and white. Those who served on the decorating committee will never forget cutting and painting all those stars. The center of attraction was a spiral staircase where joe Attenello and Linda Palmer were crowned king and queen. Their attendants were Nancy Kulpa, Fred Keating, Nancy Willoughby, Charlie Regini, Susan Tavener, Frank Gay, Betsy Lee, and Tom Olcott. Wonderful music for dancing was provided by Earl Mitchell. Near the end of March, Hazel Norris, Nancy Willoughby, Carolyn Hattie and Fred Keating were installed as members of the National Honor Society. In the late spring, Nancy Wihoughby and Betsy Lee were chosen to repre- sent us at Laurel Girls State. joe Attenello and Art Charbonneau were chosen to go to Nutmeg Boys State. Fred Keating became president of the State Student Council for the year 1958-1959. In late June he attended the National Conven- tion of Student Councils in Missouri. At last we were the big shots. Seniors-complete with privileges and raring to make this, our last year, the best ever. Fred Keating served as president for the 4th consecutive year. He was assisted by Arr Charbonneau, vice-president, Nancy Willoughby, secretary, Torn Olcott, treasurer. Student Council representa- tives were Betsy Lee, jane Corrette, Linda Palmer, and joe Attenello. Mr. Yaco- niello and Mrs. Bashour were our class advisors. The Tattler staE began its work right at the beginning to insure its being the best yet. To show our appreciation for the line work he has done while serv- ing as our class advisor, it was decided to dedicate the yearbook to Mr. Yaconiello. In November it was announced that Dolly O'Connor had won the Good Citizenship Award of the Daughters of the American Revolution. With double sessions in effect for the first half of the year, we had even less time for our Senior activities. Soon after we got used to the shorter day, we had to begin thinking about Club Serenade, held December 20. The Christmas theme was carried out in the red, green and white decorations, the Christmas tree in the center of the Hoot, and Santa's sleigh and reindeer. Dance music was pro vided by Richard Linson. The high moment of the evening was when Nancy Willoughby was chosen as Miss Serenade of 1958. Linda Grant and Joyce Combs were selected as her attendants. In keeping with our class's reputation for doing things differently, we held a talent night instead of a class play. The talent was composed mostly of sen- iors, but a few gifted underclassmen were allowed to take part. june brought us memories that only seniors can possess - the banquet, class outing, Baccalaureate, and, the biggest event of all, Graduation. Looking back on our four years at Bloomfield, we can only agree that it was one of the most happy and carefree periods of our lives. 27
