H. S. in 1953. We readily found ourselves absorbed in many new activities. A Frosh-Sophomore class party highlighted the year. We elected four cheerleaders to boost our promising athletes. These same girls later became varsity cheerleaders. The fall of 1954 ushered into the halls a gang of kids ready to battle the problems of a Sophomore. After much discussion, we chose those sharp red class sweaters with white letters. Our class parties also added spice to a memorable year. 'I'he biggest event in our Junior year was, of course, the Prom. We were the first class to have the prom in the new gym. But you forgot it was a gymnasium when you saw all the beautiful decorations carrying out the theme of "Greek Mythology." The class won rounds of approval when we presented our class play, "Saved By the Belle." The success was due to a lot of hard work, the directing of Mr. Joseph Casey and the management of Mrs. Violet Myers. Our new class rings left a sparkle in everyones eyes. We got the taste of hard work as we handled conces- sions for the first time. After three successful years of working and being together, we were ready to face our Senior year of l956-57. We started the year off with a car wash which was a good money making project and a lot of fun. With a record attendance we again won congratulations with our class play, "Gay", Of course, we'll never forget the lovely prom-thanks again to the Jlmiors. But the most memorable event was our class trip to Wash- ington D. C. Wrapping up four wonderful and successful years, 58 sen- iors received their diplomas. As we drawto a close in our class history, we know that the history of our lives is just beginning.
