Robert Berish, included Frank Smith, lllene Holsinger, George Kleban, Glenn Keiper, Barry Sipes, Lois Medling, Barbara Ziants, Francis Hlavay, and Darleene Beck. Membership in the National Honor Society was granted to seven members of the class. This honor went to Elizabeth Chontas, Robert Nagrant, Robert Berish, Glenn Keiper, Phyllis Freeburn, Donna Bloom, lllene Holsinger, Rosalie Charney, and Stanley Kronen. All through the various music groups there was a generous sprinkling of Senior talent. Following the preference of the maiority, the class visited the nation's Capitol, Washington, D, C., on April l8, 19, 20. Enjoying the advantages of a guided tour, the class visited the points of great- est historical significance. One of the most enjoyable experiences on the trip was a moonlight excursion trip down the Potomac River, Exciting as our Washington trip was, things were very much astir when we returned home. Preparations for the Junior-Senior Prom were well under way, and May 7, the crowning social event of our school days was upon us. The Juniors went all-out in their effort to make the Prom second to none, and not a detail was overlooked in their effort to accomplish their aim. We danced to the music of Dave Dysert in the beautifully decorated gymnasium. So much happened during the next few weeks that weeks passed like days. Baccalaureate was held on Sunday, May 22. Class Day followed with the program centering around a baseball theme. Any attempt at a description of these last days of high school would prove inadequate. lt is better that each one remember the events in his own way. However, Commencement exercises on May 26 brought an end to the thrills and experiences of twelve years in school. These are not really the outcasts of the Senior Class. They are a group of girls who were assigned to Mrs, Ruth Brewer in the Home Economics Department for home room. Of course they look nice, but why shouldn't they? They have everything a young girl's heart could desire, that is, almost everything. They have an ironing board and iron, a washer, and plenty of mirrors. lncidentally, we don'7 know whether ar not anyone noticed that there are no boys in this home YOOTTI.

,sd- W PROBLEMS OF DEMOCRACY PROBLEMS OF DEMOCRACY Building upon the foundations laid in earlier classes in Civics, the superstructure of our American citizenship was provided by our Problems of Demo- cracy Classes. David Samuel guided the discussions about the many intricate problems of our times, from the much discussed and often over-emphasized teen-age problems to problems of international scope. Each week, thought-provoking panel discussions alerted the Seniors to the problems confronting a complex civilization, and endeavored to show the best method of coping with such problems. SOLID AND TRIG Courses in Solid Geometry and Trigonometry had twelve and fourteen students respectively, all Seniors, and all boys. Both classes had Miss Lois Kindelberger as teacher. They received instruction in the theorems and applications of Solid Geometry, as well as the application of Trigonometry to the problems with which engineers and mathematicians must grapple. Miss Kindelberger, McKool, Kleban, Luther 25 Hofecker, Horner, Bittner, Mr, Samuel, Bowers. SOLID GEOMETRY
