Illllfil' l lass llislory After initiating our little sisters into the ways of Georgetown, we settled down and took Milton in our stride. Time passed quickly with our traditional Hal- lowe'en party, our November picnic, the tea dance, and the prom, We were proud, too, of our ellicient ollicers, Mary jane, Becky, and Sandy. Wfe will always remember Carolann's Aruba summer and the tales of the Army-Navy week end. This year has ended all too quickly and it is hard to imagine ourselves as the Seniors of 'SY' lirusliimui l lass llislory This lirst September days certainly had us cons fused, but everything soon straightened itself out. We surely will have pleasant memories of this year. Where would we be without Sister Cecilia? We recall with pride: Denny, Lisa, and Anne making the hockey teamsg Freshman Week and Molly's Charleston, Didi's punctuality for religion, and giggles during algebra. Under the capable guidance of Sue, Mullet, and joan, we have gone down in Georgetown history as another spirited class.
