IT NAPPENEÒ In January 1951, we entered East Side and an entirely different life. We were assigned home rooms and got to know the person next to us. lt wasn't long before we learned our way around the school and found no elevator on which to use the tickets we purchased from some fun-loving Senior for ten cents. On June 8, we held an afternoon ‘’Get Acquainted Party” and we also elected our first class officers During our Sophomore year, we became great friends with each other and spent many study periods talking about movies, boys, clothes, and girls (we were supposed to be studying) In our Junior year we held our first evening dance which turned out to be a success. We also elected new officers and the results were as follows Anthony Simonovich President Phyllis Paglia e oye Vice President Dolores Gomes Secretary Robert Martin . Treasurer When our TIA term came, we began to think seriously of raising money for our Torch and everyone worked vigorously to raise funds by selling Christ- mas Cards. The members of class were certainly proud as they wore their new school rings and boasted about our football team— we were City Cham- pions in 1953. İn January 1954, we became Seniors and held class elections for the last time with the new officers being Ricardo de Bastos President Marianne Soyka . dE Vice President Dolores Gomes . . . Secretary Lane cəyi XE. j . . Treasurer
