Superlatives Now Sharon, here's the carburetor, points out Gus Wade; but Sharon Probst, the other half of the cutest couple, seems to be enjoying herself too much to be bothered by spark plugs and radiators. Seated on the fence of the future, looking up to bigger and better things, are Merle Baldwin, girl most likely to succeed, and Penny Hunt, chosen for scholarship. Chosen as boy most likely to succeed and outstanding in scholarship, Dick Rothberg is a strong support fot the venture. It takes two to tango! And what better two than the best dancers of the senior class, Margo Dixon and Bill Lentz. 15

Senior Sipping soda through a straw are Dick McGaw and Barbara Wallace, who copped the honors of most handsome boy and cutest girl, respectively, for the fourth straight year. It's a good old-fashioned sing! Providing the accompaniment are Geri Geller and Bessie Fer- guson, both outstanding in activities. Wendell Eicher, who was chosen best musician, warms up his trumpet. Joyce Brittenham, also outstanding in music, joins with Kate Rastetter, chosen for extra-curricular work, for a duet. Waving her fist in true oratorical form, Janet Terry, best speaker, demonstrates to her athletic friends Dave Barrett and Ken Howe the secret of her success. 14

Pictured above are our capable senior class officers- Dick Rothberg, president; Dick McGaw, vice-president; Susan Van Fossen, secretary-treasurer; Barb Frederick, social council mem- ber, Janet Lawry, chairman of the social council; and Ken Howe member of the social council. These officers not only were re ' sponsible for the basic planning of our activities, bu thel 'b - hind-the-scenes assistance was invaluable and worthwhile. wpp h u Gersmehi and Miss Mary Graham, shown right were chosen by the officers as our class advisers The choices' proved to be industrious, friendly, and extremely helpful SS advice as well as actual aid. To these two teachers we owe fl deal of our success throughout this all-important year § The Class of 1960 Remembers Archer Daze We will have these moments to remember The strains of this memorable tune echoed through our minds and hearts as we relived, at our Senior Banquet Leaves of Time, ' the many wonderful moments that we have shared as the class of I960, moments that we can never forget The unique banquet presentation afforded a fine opportunity to review the four exciting years we have spent as loyal Arch- ers of South Side. As freshmen we plunged into every activity, injecting our enthusiasm into all we met and pausing just lone enough to realize that we were just a little afraid and be wildered. By our second year of high school we were in the swing, proud not to be the youngest in the school. For our officers we chose Phil Carson, president; Ken Howe vice- president; Dick McGaw, secretary-treasurer; Merle Baldwin chairman of the social council; and Janet Lawry and Dick Rothberg, members of the social council. Under their able leadership we planned and enjoyed an entertaining and profitable party. b In our junior year we were confronted with the chal- lenge of school leadership; and we met that challenge with the tremendous capability reflected in our two class activi- ties, our banquet and our memorable Junior Prom These highlights were planned under the capable leadership of Dick Rothberg, president; Merle Baldwin, vice-president- Dick McGaw, secretary-treasurer; Win Moses, social coun- cil chairman; and Dan Tritch and Barb Frederick, social council members. Quickly moving into our final year at Archerland, we Seniors proudly became the real leaders of the school With the same enthusiasm we displayed during our first three years, we set out to make our senior year the very best When we, as members of the class of I960, look back over our Archer daze, we will undoubtedly recall these and other experiences as our moments to remember 16
