c assmen Round Gut The Cast Men without bones . . . seniors without under- classmen. Both unfeasible, without the support of the one, the other is a mere shell. Men are not men without bones, seniors not seniors without underclassmen. For, contrary to many seniors' be- lief, sophomores and iuniors are vital to the school superstructure. Remove them and the struc- ture collapses, dissolves completely. Remove them and the seniors cease to exist. For the sophomore is the senior's embryo and the iunior his fetus. Seniors and underclassmen. They coexist as Siamese twins, inseparable, with a sibling rivalry which borders on hostility. They must bear each other through their journey, drawing their nourish- ment from the some lite source, moving, breath- ing, and living as one.

Underclassmen Wait and Wonder Carefully checking Arlene Czekalski's program, Miss Asimont ma sure Arlene will have all of her graduation requirements. l kes The Pulaski Student Body was, indeed, the 'lcorps d'action of Pulaski, the educational system. While the towering seniors provided the proper head muscle for further development, the determined sophomores and juniors were the feet, getting Pulaski underway, and the heart and stomach, keeping the whole, spirited and strong. These vital underclassmen were always there, working - at the pep rallies, the soul of school spirit, at the sports events, the test of school strength, and at all the shows of school pride and loyalty. Entering Pulaski for the first time, over-anxious and ultra-enthusiastic sophomores dashed through the chains of corridors looking for the white bubblers, cafeteria, and pool. However, they soon managed to flow together with the juniors and seniors, the main arteries of school life. Blood pressure mounted as the sophomores took the STEP and NSCAT achievement tests, which were soon accompanied by an emotions test - handling the wet frog flesh perfumed with formaldehyde in biology class. Juniors penetrated the inner layers of challenge and prestige. They studied U. S. history and American litera- ture, seeing how our country cultivated its mental and physical resources. When it came to activities, the iuniors reigned at the prom, the show that they had planned and decorated. New Pulaskians take time off from their mid-semester vacation to attend the orientation program and tour the school.
