candy this week?” To keep up with our tradition we held another food and rummage sale in the spring and this, according to our custom, was very prosperous. As a beautiful climax to that event- ful year, we joined forces with the seniors to sponsor the Junior- Senior Prom. With its “dreamy” decorations the Prom was truly memorable — especially to those thinking of their college board exams the next day. Our Junior-Senior Picnic was the best one on record. Swimming (Brrr — was tl;at water cold!!!) and softball amused the sport enthusiasts among us while mountains of foot! were consumed to satisfy the appetites we had developed. Of course, we all suffered our first sunburns of the season but that was minor compared to our fun. Soon afterwards, Julia and Dee abandoned us for their home states, Rhode Island and California, and to our surprise three-fourths of our story was over. Our first duty after our return to our senior year was the elec- tion of class officers, a very important step. Recalling his excellent job in former years, we again elected Jack Mulhall as president. Charlotte Hanff was elected vice-president; Marcia Brown, secre- tary; and Barbara Thornhill received the difficult job ol treasurer. We elected Sybil Kaplan, Nancy Luce and Ed Skrezec to the Student Council where Sybil became president and Nancy vice-president. Slowly the plot of the fourth chapter in our story began to unwind. This year our boys had no trouble getting to school on time because many of them drove cars. In fact, “the Hot-Rod Brigade even took parking spaces from the teachers. We held our rummage sale in the fall and again with thanks to our parents, it was very beneficial to our treasury. The major event was a magazine campaign. I he seniors set out with high hopes in search of subscriptions but soon realized that it took more than high hopes to sell magazines. How- ever, we managed to reach the rather high goal we had set. led by our top saleswoman, Nancy Luce. In addition to the candy sales, every Saturday afternoon during the football season a group ol seniors could be seen cooking and serving hot dogs, opening soda bottles and generally taking care of the wants of the football spec- tators at the refreshment stand. Our motto was “the sales must go on” which was proven by our hardy salesmen on one rainy and cold Saturday. Did they ever get soaked!!! At the beginning of October the Yearbook staff was chosen. It consisted of editor-in-chiel Marcia Brown, assistant editors Sybil Kaplan and Helen Olson, and busi- ness managers William 111 thill and Barbara I hornhill. I hey soon realized that producing a good yearbook required a lot ol work. Early in February, we began work on the senior play, Curtain Going Up!” under the direction of Miss Raynor and Mr. Bombar- dier. Amidst the fun and work, a highly successful play was given on April 1. The never-to-be-forgotten Washington Trip! Our long awaited dream goal finally became a reality on April 6 and it was worth all the work. The Junior-Senior Prom, given on June 3, was terrific as usual but this year it was more sparkling than ever. We will always remember our last prom at G.H.S. Soon it was time for the fun-loaded Junior-Senior Picnic and then . . . GRADUA- TION. It seemed as if we had just begun writing our story when we found ourselves proudly receiving our diplomas. And so the last chapter of the Class of ’55 comes to a close. Our story will no ionger take us through the familiar halls of G. H. S., but we shall begin to write a new one — individually.
