am nismi We, the editors of the yearbook, feel it our duty to let Sam Thimbleswear record the history of our class. Sam was very popular with our class because, with all his extra-curricular activity, he never once received demerits. In case you don’t remember him, he sat in the seventh row in Mr. Graham's room. Sam always worked very hard and managed to get his education in a minimum of six years. He has now realized that his future is in aviation, a career which had its beginning in Mr. Kelly’s fifth period study. Here is his story l! We entered our Freshman year with the thought in mind that we had finally reached the top floor and the mysteries it contained. We held our class meeting and elected Mr. Lynch our advisor and the class officers. who were as follows: President, Eleanor Hager; Vice-President, Jim Sullivan; Secretary, Mike Crowley; and Treasurer, Harry Newby. Our Sophomore year was quite different because we were never allowed to forget the immortal words of Mr. Kelly, This is the year that we separate the wise men from the fools , and it was our hardest year. We again elected Mr. Lynch our advisor and the class officers were: President, Ed Law; Vice-President, Lynn Hendrix; Secretary, Mike Crowley; and Ed Bouquillon as Treasurer. The theme of our social that year was Friday the Thirteenth and contrary to the idea of the theme, the social was very successful. On the eighteenth of June we had our class picnic at the Lake. Everybody went and we had a great time. That year was the last one for Mr. Lynch in our school and the class gave him a watch as a token of appreciation. Our Junior year started off in a flurry of activity. We had elections and chose Mr. Fullerton as our new advisor. Our class officers were: President. Lynn Hendrix; Vice-President. Marion Maloney; Secretary, Nancy Lingle; and Treasurer, Ed Bouquillon. s B p E H L A T I E S DONE MOST FOR CLASS: Lynn Hendrix Enid Greenhaus . 0 BEST SCHOLAR: Enid Greenhaus Larry Schindler

CLASS HISTORY The theme of our Junior Social was Dragnet with skits from the Dragnet scenes. Our Prom was the biggest event of the year and we called it My Blue Heaven. Marion Maloney was crowned Queen and Lynn Hendrix reigned as King. Everyone danced under a star-lit sky, streaked with moon beams that blended into the romantic setting. In March we received our class rings which made us feel, even more, a part of the class. At last our senior year had arrived. Now, instead of one class meeting a week, we had several. Mr. Fullerton stayed as our advisor and Mr. Bucknam became our Yearbook advisor. The co-editors were Mary Yarochowicz and Marion Maloney. The class election results were: President, Enid Greenhaus; Vice-President, Eddie Law; Secretary, Shirley Allen; and Paul Douskey, Treasurer. We held the Harvest Moon Hop in the fall and Liberace (Larry Schindler) was our big star attraction. At this time it can be well remembered by all that throughout the four years of high school, Robert Stone has been in charge of providing the best in music for our socials. At Christmas time we held our Silver Bells prom. Marion Maloney was crowned Queen, and we were all pretty proud because she is the first girl in a long time to be queen for two years. Ed Law was king of the prom. Everyone came in their holiday best and danced in the light of the Christmas tree. Next on the agenda was the Senior Play. Mr. Kenny was our play director and we selected Night Must Fall , the thrilling play about a psychopathic killer. The play was held on April 16 and the auditorium was packed. Time had almost caught up with us. In a few short weeks, we were to receive our diplomas. Already the plans were being made for class night and as I look back, I can truthfully say, those were the four best years of our lives.
