The high powered seniors, who only a few years back thought it was a far distant goal, see the end in sight as June draws near. Through- out our four years we have had many academic, ath- letic and social activities to prepare for our future life - be it college, career, or the home. Even as freshmen, many of us realized the impor- tance of a good education. However, we did not neg- lect participation in sports and extra curricular clubs. Under the supervision of Mrs. Gustason, we elected J. Begey, president, W. Sepanskey, vice-president, P. Nese, treasurer. We took part in the May Festival and wisely chose Marie Tonet and Michael Mezick as our court attendants. The first year was a rewarding year for us all. More exciting still was our sophomore year. Robert Witkowski was elected president, Elmer Redinger, vice- president, Johnetta Begey, secretary, and Arlene Yurko, treasurer. As we socialized more and more, sopho- mores became cheerleaders, maiorettes, twirlers while others ioined the football and basketball squads, the chorus and the band. Arlene Yurko and Robert Wit- kowski represented our class at the May Festival. Per- haps the biggest thrill of the year was receiving our school rings. As we started our iunior year, our class began to de- crease in number to only 39 members. We carried on our general procedure of electing officers. Robert Wit- kowski remained as president, Michael Mezick, vice- president, Elaine Rahaw, secretary, and Marie Tonet, treasurer. Under the guidance of Mrs. Gustason, we assumed the responsibilities of earning money by sell- ing Christmas cards and sponsoring .a Junior Class dance to take care of upcoming expenses. The big event of the year was the Junior-Senior. Prom-atrthe lonial Manor which was also the scene of our May Crowning. Johnetta Begey and Robert Witkowski re- presented our class as court attendants. The distribution of senior pictures made us realize at once that this was unquestionably our senior year - our last. For the third year, Robert Witkowski was elected to lead our class as president, Mike Mezick, vice-president, Elaine Rahaw, secretary, and Johnetta Begey, treasurer. To increase our treasury we sold Christmas cards and held our Senior Dance. Each was a success. As we close our senior year and mentally review the bright moments of the years spent at East Pittsburgh, we know that the friendships and memories will be a part of our lives as we go on to higher fields of edu- cation and endeavor.

Tammy Tell Me True Irresistible Tammy Tyree, a shanty-boat girl, goes to college and then delightful fireworks start. Young Profes- sor Tom Freeman, charmed by her quaint way of talking and her understanding of people, advises her about courses. Pete Brent, her own true love, is surprised and not too pleased at her arrival. Just when it looks as if Tammy may not be allowed to stay at college, a new ac- quaintance comes to the rescue. Miss Annie Call, a lonely old woman dominated by a money-hungry niece, arrives to live on the shanty boat with Tammy but insists that her identity be kept a secret. Finally, Miss Annie is found by the police, and Tammy is taken off to jail accused of theft. At the hearing, it is Tom who clears her name and makes things right again. Tammy, who has come to col- lege to learn, realizes now that she has learned a new understanding of true love. ROW iz B. Molnar, E. Price, J. Connors, S. Karl. ROW 2: M. Boden, C. Mlinarich. - 26
