Hang down your head, Jim Brandi. Ring around the rosie! Pals ’til the end. Can it! Class As the caps and gowns flowed down the familiar auditorium for the last time on June 22, 1969, the sound of “Pomp and Circumstance” brought tears to our eyes as we remembered our past four years at G. H. 5. It all began one September morning in 1966 as we found our lockers and assembled in our homerooms with a maximum amount of confusion. We held our first class meeting in the early fall and elected our officers: Colin Van Tuyl, President; Bill Price, Vice-President; Barbara Helinski, Treasurer; Joylene Dinizio, Secretary. The months passed quickly and, before we knew it, we were making plans for our first dance, “Leprechaun’s Discotheque”. It was a great success and we even had our live leprechaun (John White in disguise!). We began our sophomore year by re-electing the same President and Secretary, with Jeff Sherwood as Treasurer, and Bill Price as Vice-President. It was soon time to start thinking about our two semi-formals. “Swinging Chalet” fit right in witn the Christmas season as the gym was transformed into a lovely living room setting complete with fireplace. Then came “Floral Fountain' in the spring and the gym burst into bloom with hundreds of flowers. Summer passed all too quickly and soon we were back at G.H.S., but now things were different. We were the upperclassmen. We re-elected Joylene Dinizio as Secretary, with Wayne Mazzaferro as President; Laurie Peterson as Vice-President; and Karen Mazzaferro as Treasurer. Our next thoughts were occupied by planning our Halloween dance, “Halloween Happening”.
