IICANDIDATES Evelyn Daley Jon Olson John Bessey Judy Heitman The American Field Service program ve carried on in the local school for the first time during the school year 1955-'56. Peter Iden, a high school student from Germany, spent the entire year with us. He brought many foreign ideas to us and in turn, took many typical American ideas back to Germany with him. The five Patterson juniors pictured on this page were eligible for a three month visit in a foreign country this summer. In order to pro- vide funds, the stuaent body with the co-operation of the Greater Patterson Area Merchants Stanley Davis sponsored a Red Tag Day. The fund raising project was completely successful and Patterson will be represented in a. foreign country by one of our outstanding junior class members.
