ur Junior year was really busy. We started by ordering our rings. Then we began Thinking about our Junior Prom. After much deliberation, we decided upon Hanna No Matsuri as the name. Then we started working on the decora- tions for our Japanese theme. No Senior will forget mak- ing those pink cherry blossoms. Suddenly, while we were in the midst of getting ready for the Prom, our rings arrived. We were so thrilled with them that we showed them to everyone. But we still had to get ready for May l8th and the Prom. And some of us were quite busy that day, to say the least, for that was also the day of the College Board examinations. Soon after that came the end of the school year, and we began to realize that we had only one year left. inally, it was T957 and we had reached that long-awaited Senior Year ! Some of us were a little bit awed at being Seniors, but after the first few weeks of school, we settled down to our final and most exciting year at Upper Dublin. And what a year it was to be! The yearbook staff began work on the annual, The Mundockian, early, meeting the first, and remaining, deadlines successfully. The Senior Class Play, Dangerous Dan McGrew, under the capable direction of Mr. Robert B. Wert, came and went, and before we knew it, our Christmas dance, Winter Wonderland, had passed. In February, we ordered our graduation announcements. We knew that we had to make the most of the rest of the year, for we realized how little time we had left at Upper Dublin. 1 lthough at this time we are all anxious to start on our separate ways of life, we will be sorry to leave Upper Dub- lin, for even though it has offered us some sad times, it has also given us some of our best friends, and best times and experiences that we have had or will ever hope to have. e are all indebted to Mrs. Margaret Davis and Mr. Frank Gilronan, our class advisors, who have been instrumental to our wonderful high school career. Also we wish to give our sincere thanks to Dr. W. W. Eshelman, Mr. Norman L. Jones, Mr. William E. Keim, Mr. Paul D. Duelfer, and the faculty for all the help they have given us throughout years at Upper Dublin. our happy

How strange and new it seemed to us. But eventually we became accustomed to the long halls the new teachers and our many new classmates. We were soon able to distinguish the Seniors from the underclassmen and we wondered if we would ever reach that seemingly unattainable position. hen before we knew it seventh grade was finished- and there we were in eighth grade ready for another year And what a year it was' We were no longer the youngsters of the school and we felt dulte superior about it When we took our trip to Harrisburg and Hershey we really had a good time and everyone longed to own the chocolate factory :nth grade came almost before we were ready for it u it was one more step toward that coveted goal Finally w were invited to attend our first dances with our older classmates We had our ninth grade play One Mad Night which was really a mad play and loads of fun Some of us had become quite good athletes on the lunlor high teams and were already waiting for next year so that we could rainy trip to New York City and our graduation from lunlor high We had only three years left but still that senior year 5 I o DA 'K' xi . seemed far away ere it was the fall of i955 and we were in the tenth grade This was the year we really became a part of the senior high And we were ready to prove that we had really grown up Our Valentine Dance was really fun and we can still remember the excitement of seeing our tenth grade cheerleaders at their first varsity game Il X I xiii 0 .
