ime stayed on to take care of money. Pat Ford became City Council Representative of the G.O. It was in our seventh term that we lost Frank Seely. Although Frank is gone, he will always be remembered 'for his big eyes and kind smile. Fran Barone, Joan Maloney and Karla Brinkmann made Varsity in this term and proved they were really athletes. The stage had become something to many of us. The bug got Sal Cornacchio and he danced a much-liked rhumba for the whole school in another one of Pat Ford's talent shows. We had our Senior Prom in seventh term and danced to the music of Billy May's brother, Jimmy May. Don Muller gave us his interpretation of Charley's Aunt and Al Foster came up with his Miracle Basket shot in a game against Adams. Al also played on the All Queens Team and played as though it meant his lite. This was the 'first term in our history when we split up, but it didn't stop us from voting for Bobbie Vlaun as class president and Maryanne Hague as secretary-treasurer. We also put Pat Ford in the headlines, when along with the help of the rest of the school, she was elected vice-president of the G.O. Seniors-what a thrill and only five months more of classes in Richmond Hill! Pat Ford was to lead us through our struggles along with Karla Brinkmann who was to help her out and share the work. Bobbie Vlaun made a hit when she was elected vice- president ofthe G.O. We started a new thing in R.H.H.S. by combining Senior Day and Class Night into one big day. Our show was in the morning and half the class was in it. We had every- thing from serious ballad singing done by Red Coppola, to terrific rhumba-mambo combo by Loretta Quinn and Sal Cornacchio, and a crazy mixed-up skit acted out by Don Muller, Joan Maloney, Mike Dougherty, Dick Weick, and Pat Ford. We decided then and there that there was only one song for our class and one that will always be sung by all of us, Heart of my Heart. Bob Barr stayed behind the scenes as captain of the stage crew. Helping Bob we found Joanie Birkett who came to us in seventh term, and proved she could set a table pretty well for a dinner skit in the Senior Day Show. Senior buttons will be worn by all of us from October l7 until eternity, and even though the hats only got to us on January 4, they were worn Proudly and constantly. Ted Steele'found we were very good dancers and television stars and put us on his show twice. The last time we brought Richmond Hill another trophy to put in the trophy case. Dick Heuwetter and Fran Barone were not only athletes but also very good dancers, as Ted decided when he chose them as the winners of his dance contest on both shows. Karla Brinkmann became girl leader of the Ushers, and president of Dolphins. Pat Norbury did her cheers and cart-wheels well enough to be chosen captain of cheer leaders. As the most likely girl to succeed, Joan Maloney had to represent us at the Business Day Conference held by the Equitable Life Assurance Company in the Hotel Statler. There were but two links left in our high school career-REGENTS and COMMENCE- MENT. We passed over the first bridge and found ourselves at last with diplomas in our hands. Now that graduation has come and gone, we can look back through the book of our memories with much happiness and gratitude for the wonderful four years that we spent.
