At Bloom students are keeping pace with this progress. Our way-out classrooms and laboratories are daily turning out the top-notch students that are nec- essary to fill these future positions, for Bloom is a school designed with the future in mind. If and when we do reach the moon, it’s certain that Bloom students will be there, for they have re- ceived during their four years of education the finest training possible. 3 Dr. Harold H. Metcalf has enthusiastically ported Bloom during his sixteen years as oar superintendent. During this time the people of Chicago Heights hare approvingly watched this school grow. This year Dr. Metcalf headed the programing of a new tuo-year high school to accommodate the increasing number of students. Through his spirited guidance the future prob- lems of our growing school will be met.

(RIGHT) Unidenti- fied future prom- goers regally bear the queen’s bouquet and crown. 8 Spending ‘A Knight with Cinderella’ On May 19, 1962, the juniors and seniors had “A Knight With Cinderella.” The couples spent two hours swaying to the music of James Cleeman and his nine-piece orchestra at the annual Junior-Senior Prom. Then the Grand March to the throne began. Within a matter of minutes Diann Widman was crowned prom queen. At the stroke of midnight Cinderella and her sub- jects left the fairyland' scenes of (he cafeteria, in order to dine at Hottinger’s Gardens, the first stop on the post-prom list of activities. Bloomites next proceeded to the Chicago Heights V.F.W. hall where they danced until five to the or- chestra of Don Belloc. (LEFT) Miss Vivian Sturtevant, senior class sponsor, joins Dr. and Mrs. Metcalf at the post-prom dinner held at Hot tink- er Gardens. (BELOW) Entering through the draw-bridge that led prom-goers into the fairytale wonderland of “A Knight with Cinderella” are Anna Klensten and her date, Frank Santostefano. Junior class president. Steve Grant, and Linda Iofallo are pictured handing out programs. Among the many Bloomites that enjoyed the excellent post-prom dinner were Joe Wenckus, Brenda Larvick, Tom Rice, Sharon McKay, Linda Grimes, Jerry Rice, Paula Canali, and Gary Cole. 9 “Wonderland by Night” Draws Alums The highlight of the Homecoming dance came when Ron Harris and Jill Piazza were crowned king and queen. Here they are shown with the '63 court. It included: Bonnie Millen and Carol Stewart, court members; Carole Lutes, last year’s queen; Bill Parisi, last year’s mayor; Jim Ammirati and Bill Hel- frick, court members; and Camille Chambers and Dina Bartolomei, crown bearers. (LEFT) Carol Stewart, a court member, and her date, Dennis Bartolomei, a ’61 alumnus, are shown enjoy- ing the atmosphere of “Wonderland by Night.” (RIGHT) Clifford Meyers, a ’62 alumnus, and his date, Diane Zagone, relax mo- mentarily in a make-believe park at the Homecoming dance. 10 Twisting—A Popular Dance Fad (ABOVE) Marion Worthy and Marion DeGuilio are all for the popular twisting fad at the Get-Acquainted Dance, while (RIGHT) Marcy Ranicri and A1 LoBuc prefer the cvcr-popular slow dance. (BELOW) The Blue and White Dance, held after the Thornton game, attracted a large number of Thornton stu- dents as well as Bloomitcs. 11 Dawn Hollenbeck and Tom Croston The cast of “The Matchmaker’ assembles around Barnaby Tucker (Terry 1 iz) in the home of Mrs. Van Huyscn to listen to his delivery of the play’s moral. Held on March 28, 29, and 30 in the auditorium, the Senior Class production entertained its audience with delightful, witty humor. At one of the many practice sessions preced- ing the play Ron Har- ris, who did a hilarious- ly funny portrayal of Cornelius H a c k 1, a small-town boy who en- counters romance and adventure in the big city, takes a spill while Dawn Hollenbeck and Tom Croston display mixed emotions. Take the Leads in “The Matchmaker’’ This year the leads in the Senior Class play went to Dawn Hollenbeck as Mrs. Levi and Tom Croston as Mr. Vandcr- gelder. Here Mrs. Levi finds herself to be Mr. Vandergcldcr’s choice for a “match.” Finally, after months of hard work and practice, the auditorium curtain rose on the Senior Class production of “The Matchmaker.” The first straight drama to be given here in years, this hi- larious play of romantic comedy by Thornton Wild- er offered energetic seniors an opportunity to dis- play their talents. Dawn Hollenbeck, portraying the nosy, kind- hearted, congenial Mrs. Levi, employed by Mr. Vandergelder, Tom Croston, to find him a wife, manages also to get herself involved in the bud- ding romance of Ambrose Kemper, a young artist played by Dave Rubley, and Mr. Vandergelders niece, Georgeanne Meyers, while attempting to “make a match” for her employer. Other leads went to Ron Harris and Terry Tiz as Cornelius Hackl and Barnaby Tucker, as well as Bonnie Grubermann in the part of Mrs. Molloy. The success of “The Matchmaker” was not due to the cast members alone. A great deal of thanks also goes to Mr. Richard Peterson, director, and the many seniors who assisted on the various com- mittees. An excellent take-off of Mrs. Molloy, the owner of a large hat shop in New York city, was given by Bonnie Grubermann. Taking off her shoes is her silly assistant Minnie Fay, played by Cheryl Hoecker. 13 Pep-o-rama—A Splashing Success Jeanne DeLuca, Margaret Mearns, Jan Schmidt, and Alice Word are just a few of the many Bloomitcs who had a good time while working on their float for the Pcp-o-rama parade. (RIGHT) “Kill 'em dead!” is the cry of our peppy Frosh-Soph cheerleaders Leanne Petrarca, Nancy Pavlik, Linda Alexander, and Sandy Doyle as they greet Thornridge, our guests for the evening. Eddie Ueeck is the lucky driver. (BELOW) Members of this year’s Spanish Club, “Los Companeros,” portrayed festive Spaniards en- joying one of their traditional bull fights. This entry was one of the twenty-seven that participated. Rain may have dampened the football field the night of the Pep-o-rama parade, but it did not dampen the spirits of the dozens of Bloomites that worked for weeks to prepare their entries for this annual event. This year a record of twenty-seven entries circled the football field to greet the mothers and fathers assembled on Parents’ night, held in con- nection with the Pep-o-rama parade. There were floats depicting everything from Spanish bull fights to our brave and fearless football players. Yes, our Pep-o-rama parade was a splashing suc- cess — rain and all! Faculty Dethroned By Students Those shapely Bloom cheerleaders that led their team to victory were Ralph Bava, Marion DeGuillio, Terry Tiz, Joe Williams, Jim Fisher, Eddie Ueeck, and Jim Ammirati. (ABOVE) An addition to the annual Student-Faculty game were the “Letter Girls.” Paulette Lobue, Virginia Thompson, Joe Ci- priani, Carol Hecht, and Sandy Mclci keep back the enthusiastic crowds. (RIGHT) Springing back after last year’s defeat, the stu- dents demonstrated their ability when they defeated the faculty 45 15 Students Display Their Best Side This year’s Courtesy Clean-Up Week, held to promote cleanli- ness and good manners, hosted a variety of activities. Among them was a split assembly which featured the crowning of a king and queen. Court members Jim Ammirati, Brenda Lar- vick, Ron Harris. Bonnie Millen, Bill Helfrick, king; Carolyn Hantak, queen; Ralph Bava, and Anne Borton arc shown just before the coronation. “Ah, come on, Ralph!” seems to be the lament of senior Marilyn School- ing as she picks up the books of her steady, Ralph Bava, on Slave Day. Class Distinction Day brought many strange “get-ups ' to the halls of Bloom. Here Joe Froncek. Steve Nicmczak, Bob Champene, and Gordon Hamilton represent that injured look portrayed by the seniors. 16 Display Cases Attract Students A group of early morning arrivals is shown gathered around a sports trophy ease in the second floor foyer. (Below) Doug Berchem, Elmer Joyce, and Bill Helfrick pause at another sports display case before going to the McCann gymnasium for the annual Thornton pep assembly. 17 Diane Nardi, chairman of the Student Council bulletin board committee, is changing the dis- play to “Our Team Is Red Hot.” Flintstones Pay A Visit To The Dressed in the garb of fearless, rough and ready cavemen, Dave Ainscough and Jim Fisher demonstrate on Tom Matza the tech- nique they intend to use on the Thornton Wildcats, while Loretta Clarcy cheers on.

Prouder of our own Dr. Metcalf the day he donned a Bloom sweater at the pep assembly preceding the Thornton game. 18 Bloom-Thornton Pep Assembly LoBue, Art Oliver, Ricky Smith, Jim Fisher, Bill Sissel, and Walt Tiberi. It’s been a great year, any way you look at it— and Bloom has had an exceptional number of delightful and entertaining assemblies. Humorous pep assemblies and educational, dance, and music programs have provided enter- tainment and educational opportunities to stu- dents in an impromptu manner. What's more, shortened periods accompany these assemblies, and offer a delightful academic break. Kenneth Mott, a representative of the National Aeronautics and Space Association, entertained future scientists with the history and use of the rocket at one of the several educational programs. The 1962-63 school year brought a great many music as- the choir and band of Champaign High School paid a visit sembhes to the student body. A highlight of these occurred when to Bloom as part of an exchange program. 19 Mothers “Thank Heaven For Little At the end of Workshop week, the teachers of Bloom High School enjoy a dinner at one of the near-by restau- rants before the school year begins. Miss Virginia Vida and Miss Elizabeth Bee- man arc shown entertaining the faculty with an after-dinner duet. The students of Mr. Dale Lawton’s homeroom meet as a group for one of the final times at the Senior Ban- quet. Each table picked a theme that was reminiscent of an activity Veronica Plaskey informs her “mother,” Jose- phine Cipriani, that she would rather have a baseball mitt than a silly old dress. This was one of the many skits featured at the Mother- Daughter Banquet. 20 Girls “At Mother-Daughter Banquet Making room for their daddies in front of the large heart at the Valentine Father-Daughter box social arc Girls’ League officers Carol Hahn, secretary, and Marilyn Cohrs, president. from one of their four years. The senior class play, “South Pacific” was chosen as the topic for Mr. Lawton's table. Unhappy with being a girl, Carol Hecht voices her opinion of all the disadvantages borne by the female sex at the Mother-Daughter banquet. 21 JAMBOREE IS A FINANCIAL CARNIVAL An unidentified aspirant for the honor of bubble gum blowing champion hopefully eyes his accom- plishment at the Junior Jamboree. Side shows, pizza booths, spook houses, telegrams, lucky leis, these are several of the important ingre- dients that went into making a successful Junior Jamboree. This all-school party, given by the Junior class for the student body, affords the class a means to earn the money to finance the Junior-Senior Prom. Under the guidance of Steve Grant, president, and Miss Man' Hollis, sponsor, the class was able to raise over $300 from this event. “Come one, come all to our extra special side show!” Cries Angelo “barker” Marnell as he tries to at- tract crowds to one of the Jamboree’s main at- tractions. A.F.S. PROMOTES BROTHERHOOD I will never forget my first clays here at Bloom when my American sister in- troduced me to all the wonderful students and teachers. At first I thought I would never get used to my new environment, but soon, with the help of others, I felt as though I had lived here all my life. It would be impossible for me to thank everyone individually for all the consideration and kindness shown me, but all I can say is that I will never forget my year here in America. Although we may never be united again, I will live over in my heart this warm experience. I shall never be the same Ester that I was before, because many of the customs and ideas of America are now part of my way of life. I only hope that I have contributed part of myself to those with whom I have come in con- tact. If you will think of me the same way I think of you, I shall feel that I have accomplished my purpose in coming here. “Qucridos amigos, adeus” Ester Danielli A.F.S. Student Like most students across the United States, Ester finds lunch a very enjoyable period. 23 “Walk together, talk together Oh you peoples of the earth Then, and only then Shall ye have peace” Exodus Ester Daniclli and her American sister, George- ann Meyers, spend many hours studying together. Here Georgeann is helping Portuguese-speaking Ester with her English assignment. t Language Classes Emphasize Donald Parrett, Alan Littell, and Donna Trucks find German forms a bit complex as they attempt to put their previous night’s homework on the board. Miss Doris Deer appears pleased at the genera' improvement made by several of her reading lab students, who are working industriously on thei: A mummy? Sure it is! Eli Jones makes a rather humorous at- tempt to portray this ancient corpse in his senior speech class. 24 Both Vocal and Written Skills Evidently Sharon Cannella, French II student, is mak- ing an attempt to impress the cameraman with her ability to sound the letter “E.” Pronunciation is a very important part in the study of any foreign language. graphs. The reading lab is a required part of every freshman’s schedule. If a senior is college- bound, he is more than likely to be found in an English Literature class. Miss Ruth Render’s ninth hour class is one of several that are offered for the many interested students. 25 Science and Math Classes Prepare George Michael points to the trapezius muscle and asks Ron- ald Miller to identify it. Fredda Sirota and Judi Wenzel are shown preparing hydrogen in Mr. Jim Pattons chemistry class. Mr. Dale Lawton explains to his second hour atomic physics class how the Helmholtz coils, an in- strument for determining c m, works. Students for Future Work Mr. Robert Andrews ex- plains to Willie Smalzer how to use a slide rule. Jpanne Marrs and Bernadette YVojack arc assisted by Mr. Clyde Lawrence in clerical math. Robert Pugh and John Gasbaro explained deter- minates of the matrix to their class. Students Earn Credits While Grotesque papier- mache figures are made by Melody Innuci, Joan Du- Chene, and Carol Hahn as part of their work in art II. (RIGHT) Art I students learn the various painting and sketching techniques by work- ing with elementary equipment. (BELOW) Before you throw away your old shoes, you'd better think twice. Sharon Rabe, art III student, finds hers a useful subject for an oil painting. Have you ever wondered where Bloomites who frequent those famous yearly election painting parties get their talent? Why, from the excellent art department, of course! Under the guidance of instructors Mr. Albert Piarowski and Mr. John Foster, members of art I,II, and III classes experi- ment with everything from elementary sketching to the complex art of oil painting. Perhaps the unique factor in all of these art classes is that the students are gaining a practical knowledge of art while having a great time doing it! 28 Pursuing Favorite Pastimes K (ABOVE) The violin section of the concert orchestra is intent on elimina- ting any “sour” notes from their fin- ished composition. (LEFT) Comet players Norman Dominquez. Gary Holtz, Charles Scheiwe, Howard Perry, and Richard Skowronski are among the many stu- dents who participate in music activi- ties. One would never guess by hearing the shrill notes that proceed from an orchestra pit before a concert that the beautiful sounds which fol- low are in any way connected with the finished product. This beautiful music is attained only through a great deal of hard work and practice. That is exactly what the music groups at Bloom do — practice. Meeting during the ninth hour each day, members of the band and orchestra devote many hours of their time to the improvement of skills that have made Bloom excel in the music field. Mr. Einar Cannelin, concert band director, takes an active part in all his group does. Under his guidance the band adds spark to half-time activity. 29 Students Gain Mr. Atz is shown giving a lecture in one of his business law classes, while Pat Hel .el follows the ideas in her book. The Homemaking department sponsored a party for the play school children on Halloween. Pictured here are Lisa Onafrio and Steve Stchr showing their costumes to Sharon Mitchell. 30 An example of the good typing tech- niques necessary for well done work is demonstrated in this typing two class. Needed Experience Pictured at the right are some of the play school children dur- ing a Halloween Party held Wednesday, October 31. Going around the table arc David Bamonti, Erin O’Connel, Sha- ron Mitchell, Janice Kamp, Tommy Hey, Dorothy Field, and Catic Jackson. Samuel Thurman and Ted Chamberlain seem to be sharing a joke behind their teacher’s back in architectural drawing. Social Studies Teaches Democracy Mr. Simonek points to a part of the brain and waits for Jacquic Matera to identify it, while Leiam Meier holds a fourth of the model in her hands. John Zagonc proudly smiles after find- ing Africa on the globe, while Grady Doxey shows his bewilderment at not finding the part Mr. Daniel Drabik had asked him to find. Mr. Sarver awaits per- mission to speak in his fourth and fifth hour per- sonal and family living class. 32 Graduation is Only the Beginning Bloom graduates of 1962 stand solemnly as their fellow classmates proceed into the gymnasium at baccalaureate, one of the last times that the class will ever assemble as a group. With each step that the senior takes on graduation night, a memory is recalled — a memory of some insignificant event that has occurred during his last four years of education. The crowded halls, those long waits in the lunch line, the rough semes- ter finals, gym make-ups, the games, dances, and other events which have played so great a part in his life during his years in high school are all recalled in rapid succession. Yes, all of this is in the past now, but what about the future? Graduation is not the end of four years of pleasure; it is the beginning of a life-time of satisfaction. Both the social and academic knowledge which has been instilled in the graduate for the past few years will become a very basic part of all his future actions. The Bloom graduate of 1962 has all this to look forward to, and more, for he indeed has “Great Expectations.” Bloom's foreign exchange student, Olav Randsalu, is pictured as he re- ceives his diploma from school board member, Mrs. Wilhclmina Pignotti. 33 The inhabitants of planet Activity are just what their name implies, active! Continually on the move, they’re the stuff the future is made of. Full of initiative, they’re the ones rated most likely to succeed. Whether they are singing, dancing, participa- ting in governmental affairs, or just pursuing their pastimes, they are industriously working to obtain the benefits that are reaped both now and in the future through hard work.

Patterned after the Chicago Heights commission form of city, the Student Council has its own con- stitution, whose preamble is similar to that of the United States: “We, the students of Bloom T.H.S. ... in order to promote cooperation with our Board of Education and faculty, to provide for the common welfare, and to provide for the highest possible good to ourselves and our suc- cessors. . . The mayor presides over the council assisted by an executive committee comprised of four com- missioners, the clerk, and sponsors. Council members are nominated and elected in homeroom to insure equal representation. Besides sponsoring the annual Pcp-o-rama pa- rade, pep assemblies, fund drives, dances, election week, and gym-jams, councilmen find time to at- tend local and district conferences, including the NE-NW convention and the South Suburban con- ference. Working diligently on their float for the Pcporama parade, sponsored by the student council, arc a few members of the Blu Fins. The Pcporama parade is an event sponsored annually by the council.

The organi- zation represents the highest scholastic achievement. The members, who must have a 3.0 grade average if selected when seniors and a 3.5 grade average if selected when juniors, are in- ducted into the society at a candle-lighting ceremony held each spring. An added honor given the graduating mem- bers is the privilege of wearing a gold NHS cord during the class day and graduation exercises. National Honor Society, Old members and New juniors. ROW 1: C.

They should have to face some of the small catas- trophes that The Broadcaster staff has to meet and solve nearly every week. Rcjx rters have to meet a deadline every two weeks, and problems are constantly cropping up. Among these are such ones as trying to fill up a 250-word “hole” on a page with a story from which only 150 words can be squeezed, but with the help and guidance of Miss Betty House, adviser and Mr. Roger Atz, business adviser, these tragedies are overcome. Many staff members may not become top reporters on a big paper, but the knowledge acquired from working on The Broadcaster should be of help later in life. It is worthy of note that The Broadcaster has won many All-American newspaper awards. k Probably laughing at a typographical error in The Broadcaster arc Bill Smalzer, Miss Betty House, adviser; and editor Sue Cohen.

Bozenich, V. Tredon, Miss Virginia Vida, advisor. STAND- ING: V. Thompson, J. Corsino, S. Larvick, V. Schickncr, R. Harris, T. Kowalski, T. Rippe, F. Sirota. Presenting the best student literary work to every Bloomite is the aim of The Tower. The stafT, under the supervision of Miss Virginia Vida, discusses, compiles, edits, and types all prose and poetry submitted by the students. Many of the selections published, such as poems, essays, and book reports are work that was done in English classes during the year. Every Bloom student receives The Tower in the spring, free of charge through the courtesy of the Board of Education, which pays the cost of printing. Charlene Koski, editor of the Tower and Virginia Tredon suggest cover designs to art editor Carol Hahn, while Gretta Spier and Barbara Bozenich offer ideas of their own. 42 Service, The Aim of Girls League Popcorn and foster children may not seem synonymous to most people, but to a Girls’ League member the words have nearly the same meaning. The Girls’ League, of which all Bloom girls are members, earns money to sup- port a foster child in the Philippines. The League sponsors many projects. Among their numerous projects are the Bundle Drive, Christmas baskets for needy families in the area, and deco- rating the Christmas tree in the foyer. Happy because of the big success of the 1962 Burfdlc Drive are Girls’ League mem- bers and officers Carol Hahn, secretary; Barbara Cordes, Margaret Weiss, Terry Green, Gina Pisterzi, vice-president; and Marilyn Cohrs. Packing cans of good hearty food for Christmas baskets are Charlene Koski, Gretta Spier, Barbara Bozenich, and Carol Hahn. Trying to answer the many questions of Jean Hancock, her “teenage daughter” is Roslyn Ricchio at the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet. 43 Orchestra Members Strive For Under the expert direction of Mr. Robert Hippensteel, the Con- cert Orchestra emphasizes every- thing from modern jazz to classical music. The efforts of this group were an important factor in the success of the Christmas Concert, the Spring Concert, and many school assemblies. Although the group performs chiefly at events within the school, it still finds time to participate in many outside ac- tivities. The instrumentalists study or- chestral literature and hope in the future to join college or commu- nity orchestras. During the ninth hour each day time is spent in learning and perfecting much of the music they play. Every ninth hour, members of the Orchestra tune their instruments in preparation for practice. Here Paula Rosen, Kathy Mis, Terry Sanders, Paula Underwood, and Allen Di- Carlo, all members of the string sec- tion, await the drop of the baton. 44 A Better Understanding of Music Concert Orchestra.

Local activities included the Memorial Day and Community Fund parades and playing for other high schools and grade schools in the area. This year the Concert Band traveled to Northwestern University to participate in the annual Homecoming Parade and also their Band Day. The Concert Band sponsors students on tour with the School Band of America and offers scholarships to summer music clinics. Getting a little practice for his position of student director, Jim Ammirati, band president, leads the group at an impromptu session. 46 Concert Band. ROW I: J. Ammirati, R. Ludwig, A. Schichncr, R.

Members of the other school chorouses practice diligently in order to receive the distinction of being a member of A Cappella Choir in their junior or senior year. This choir practices daily during the third hour in order to achieve musical perfection. Senior girls and boys are selected and rehearse under the direc- tion of Mrs. Jean Workman. This year 50 members of A Cappella Choir were chosen to participate in a choir trade with Eisenhower High School of Blue Island. Other activities of this industrious group include singing for the Christmas assembly and for community affairs and organizations such as the Rotary, Kiwanis, and Lions clubs.

As freshmen they start out by learning the basic funda- mentals of music in Fresh- man and Boys’ Choruses. The next year they move up to Girls’ Glee Club, Girls’ and Boys’ Choirs, where they either stay their junior year or move on up to A Cappella Choir, the end of their goal.

Promoting pep at the games and pep assemblies is the main objective of the Pep Club. One of the or- ganization’s projects is the staging of a skit at the an- nual Bloom-Thomton pep assembly. Attending all the games, both here and away, and the assemblies, the Pep Club spreads enthusiasm to both students and players, with spirited cheers, and rousing songs. The Pep Club cheers the Trojans at foot- ball games and basketball games, rain or shine. The Bloom Pep Band, re- sponsible for the musical 4 life, is comprised of 29 mem- bers of the Concert Band, under the direction of Mr. Einar Cannclin. Pep Band, ROW 1: G. Tjcmmcs, L. Grimes, T.

Of these groups three are predominate over the lesser ones. The girls who deliver call slips and attendance sheets usually can be heard rushing through the halls on their errands. The traffic guides direct the flow of traffic to keep congestion down to a minimum during the six-minute passing pe- riods, quite a job with over 3000 students enrolled. The lesser service groups do their jobs equally well. Student Hostesses: ROW 1: J. Venturella, J. Je- linck, C. Rodman, D. Mayscy. ROW 2: B. Le- Vault, A. Tcdford, L. Roscnblum, K. Spinozzi.

Pan- cake, B. Olivers, J. Norstmm, L. Schar- land, K. Ruse, C. Alkire, L. Chap- man, D. Baranski. Every hour at least two or three students can be found assisting the librarians in many different duties, which is greatly appreciated by the librarians in that they have more time to do other things. Most of the duties of the assistants have to do with the checking in and out of books and helping other students find books. To locate a certain book for a student is in itself a credit to these students, for in order to be able to do this they must know the location of all the types of books, quite a task when you think of the number of books we have. Some of their other duties arc concerned with the collection and filing of the library passes, keeping the library in order by putting away all materials left by stu- dents, and other such things. All in all, they do a fine job and are clearly an asset to anyone who uses the library. Library Assistants: B. Goezel, P. Kal- emba, B. Kingsley, N. Stupka, L. Peart, J. Bearby, C.

It obtains the guest speaker for an assembly. Last year’s speaker was Jesse Owens. The organization, made up of students of all races and creeds, holds its meetings at the home of the mem- bers. At these meetings, the group discusses intergroup problems which come up during the course of the school year. Meeting twice each month, the International Relations Club discusses world affairs, current events, and occasionally hears guest speakers. To investigate the effect of current world problems is the main objective of the club. FRONT ROW: Tom Macjohnson, Aimes Alex- ander, Ann Marie Taylor, Lucy Ross, Joan Prist, Vcm Krobish, Pat Hare.

To further their knowl- edge of Roman times is the main objective of the Latin Club, which sponsors the annual Christmas party and the gala Roman banquet. Students interested in France as well as those tak- ing French may join the French Club. Each year the Christmas party and the spring puppet show high- light the groups activities. The German Club, spon- sored by Mr. Raymond Mc- Coy, supplements its regular meetings with guest speak- ers, games, and songs of the country. To gain a greater interest in our Latin-A m e r i c a n neighbors is the purpose of the Spanish Club. The high- light of the year is the an- nual Christmas party and the breaking of the pinata.

Traveling back in time to the days of Julius Caesar and the era when togas were the vogue, members of the Latin Club spent an evening reliving the splended days of Rome. This year’s theme for the Roman Banquet centered around “Mount Olympus, Where the Gods Are.” (In Roman mythology the gods were supposed to have lived on Mount Olympus.) The program included a dinner, various skits presented by members of the club depicting a meeting of the gods on Mount Olympus, and in general an evening of fun. The Latin Club also works on several welfare proj- ects and donates money for the American Field Service student-exchange program. Latin Club activities will tenninate with a picnic which will be held in Woodrow Wilson Park in Chicago Heights, near the end of the school year. 59 Looking over the writings of the Writers Club are its officers, M. Orton, vice-president, B. Morgan, secretary, Miss Ruth Render, sponsor, M. Apking, treasurer, B. Zalman, president. The publication of their own anthology, Early Har- vest, highlighted the second year of the Writers Club, sponsored by Miss Ruth Render. Some of the activities this year included the submis- sion of articles to magazines, including The Tower, writ- ing interviews, and entering their work in literary contests. So as not to become lax in their writing they constantly practiced different types of writing, studied manuscript rules, analyzed each other’s work, and obtained advice from persons already in a field of writing. Students Participate Readily in the In its third year the De- bate Club has continued to provide all interested stu- dents with training and practice in the methods of logical argument as well as the techniques of fonnal de- bate in their meetings which were held every Thursday. During the year club members have studied the National High School De- bate Topic. American for- eign trade, drawn up other propositions and prepared cases on them, and have gained experience in the construction of logical argu- ments on short notice with the help of Mr. James Ste- vens.

Upon looking around one dis- covers that these discussions come from the Colloquium meeting, where work is done on seeking out the deeper meaning and higher truth with the help of the club’s sponsor, Mr. Franklin E. Miller. Another club concerned with one of the fine arts is the Drama Club. Members work on monologues, one- act plays, readings, and pantomimes, some of which they put on during the year under the guidance of Mr. Donald Leach. Clubs Studying the Finer Arts Colloquium.

Such a program was one that in- cluded a guest speaker from the Oak Forest School of Practical Nursing. For the girl who wants to be a professional nurse, several field trips are made to various schools of nursing. There is another club at Bloom that is equally interested in the future of its members.

Playing the part of ap- prentice Santa Clauses, members of the Junior Red Cross made Christ- mas stockings and distrib- uted them to the home- rooms. Students were asked to bring small gifts to fill the socks. The jun- ior Red Cross then took the overflowing stockings to underprivileged children in the Chicago Heights area. The club, sponsored by Miss Elizabeth Kelly, fol- lows in the footsteps of the American Red Cross. The oldest active or- ganization at Bloom, the Audubon Club occasion- ally has guest speakers, and members do labora- tory work and go on field trips. 63 Every Tuesday and Thursday the Fencing Club meets with its sponsor, Mr. Lee Simonek, for a short meeting preceded by practicing against each other and learning the proper way to handle a foil. Although fencing may seem dangerous, it really isn’t, because as protection foils arc blunt-tipped and fencers are required to wear mesh face masks and heavy fencing jackets. During the year various teams are formed and travel to different schools to fence for a trophy which is given to the tournament winner at the end of the year. Each week members of the Chess Club meet to increase their knowledge of chess under the watch- ful eye of Mr. Thomas Hogan, sponsor. Fencing Club. ROW 1: , K. Stevens, P. Deaton, C. Stradley, D.

This is all done under the watchful eye of Mr. Dale Lawton, who often gives helpful hints and useful ideas. After earning their licenses members arc allowed to use the club’s station, W9PEM, which has reached almost ever)' state and a few other countries. Last year the station was improved with a new trans- mitter, receiver, and antenna which were paid for by funds raised by the club. Radio Club. J. Spada, L. Miller, T. Glowiak, M. Kruzcl, T.

Contrary to what most people would think, this or- ganization is co-ed, and a few girls do participate. Along with the boys they learn much about the me- chanics of the complicated operation of a modern car under the guidance and in- struction of the club sponsor, Mr. B. M. Seaman. Along with Mr. Seaman’s instruction, members learn also from assorted reading materials, descriptive films, and practical experience on small working engines. Car Club. N. Jordan, G. Gibbs, L.

All of the astronauts, at least the really good ones, come from here; for this is the planet that is known for its outstanding physical education facilities. From its ex- cellent P.E. classes come our young space explorers — all in top physical condition. Then there are the great athletes found on Boys’ Sports. Football, basketball, baseball, and wrestling are only a few of the sports that have given these potential space- men the physical prowess and good sportsmanship necessary' to succeed in their future occupations.

Eisenhower 14 34 Thornton 12 The 1962 Varsity football team finished their season with a 1—7—1 record and defeated arch-rival Thorn- ton by the largest margin of any Bloom team in the history of the rivalry. The biggest disappointment was that the team came so close in almost all the games and yet fell short. Actually, the ball club was only out- classed by Joliet, the state’s second ranked team. The only other one sided loss was 27—7 to the Big-Eight co-champion Aurora East. Of the remaining five de- feats, four were by the scant margin of one touchdown and the other was a 13—0 loss to Rich East. In the latter case, Bloom won the battle of statistics but, as was the case until the Thornton game, lacked the ability to get the big play to bring about a score. The only team to have better statistics, besides Joliet, was Dwight D. Eisenhower, and the Cardinals managed to win 14—7 only because they converted two pass inter- ceptions into touchdowns. If the gridders would have had a break here and there or made fewer mistakes, the season would have been considerably different. With a number of returning lettermen, head coach Mr. Colbrese and assistant coaches Mr. Jacobeit and Mr. Piazza are looking forward to a good 1963 team. Seniors Art Oliver, Dick Pangburn, and Jim Williams received All-Conference awards for their outstanding performances throughout the season. 72 But Gain Skill For Next Year (TO THE LEFT) Terry Durant, Speedy Rich halfback, meets fierce opposition from Art Oliver as Dick Pang- burn (79) and Dwight Dunn (29) go to the aid of their teammate.

According to Coach Ed Krumm the little Trojans started ofT the season as the worst team in the league and ended up as the best. Once good physi- cal condition was obtained, thereby making the team less injury prone, no one could hold them down. Win- ning the last four games by respectable margins testifies to this. Key players on the team were Clyde Sissel, Pat Bekcza, John Guthrie, Tom Wing, Dan Tichenor, and Lynn Bernhard; all should add to varsity strength next year. Freshman stand-outs Booker Bradford and John Griffin will be returning to the fresh-soph and with the help of the large number of boys who participated on the freshman squad, next year’s team should be success- ful. Assisting Mr. Krumm were Mr. Smith and Mr. Dewey who worked with the line and backfield respec- tively. A slow start hurt the fresh-soph team but spirit, drive, and conditioning enabled them to come back with a winning record. 75 Slow Start Hurts Great Potential (TO LEFT) Harold Catlett brings down a Thornridge run- ner as John Guthrie and Clyde Sisscl move up to help.

The Varsity harriers finished their 10-meet season with a 6—4 record. Mr. Rehberg coached the team to a winning season and a fourth place in the conference. Captains for the 1962 squad were Bill Wallin and Joe Hummel. Leading the team were consistent winners Ralph Maiorano, Bill Wallin, Joe Hummel, Ray Ken- nedy, Mose Corbin, and Tyrone Blackful. This year’s Frosh-Soph cross country team had an 8—2 record for the season and a first place in the South Suburban League. Leading runners for the Frosh- Sophs were Tilton Davis, Vird Barker, Bill Anderson, Abdon Sauchez, Lonnell Poole, and Jim Wallace. Coach Rehberg has the added responsibility of the Frosh- Soph squad, and he believes that his boys have the potential to de- velop into excellent runners in the future. 1 962 Varsity Scores Bloom 19 Homewood-Flossmoor Opponent 43 Bloom 43 Dwight D.

Lockport 70 Competing in what was probably the toughest con- ference in the state, the Trojans finished the season with a 26—4 record and a first place finish in the conference under coaches Phil Hey and Ray Gilbert. With all five of last year’s starters returning, the Tro- jans rolled over their first eight opponents, including a first place finish in their own Invitational tournament, before being stopped by Lockport in the Pontiac tourna- ment. Led by all-staters Walt Tiberi and Art Oliver, both of whom received positions on the all-conference team, the Trojans whipped 11 of their next 13 opponents, includ- ing an overtime revenge victory over Lockport. Finishing with a 12—2 conference record, Bloom went on to capture the regional and sectional crowns which moved them into the elite Sweet Sixteen. The Trojans were then knocked out of contention by Geneva at the Hinsdale super-sectional. Other top players were seniors Roy Washington, who broke Bloom’s individual game rebounding record, and re- serves Walt Kaszubski and Victor Washington. Returning next year will be Bruce Hodges and Leonard Brown, both regulars on this year’s team, and center Wil- lie Reed. With this group returning, plus players moving up from the frosh-soph squad, Bloom can look forward to another successful season. 78 Greatest Season in Many Years (TO THE LEFT) In the holiday tournament rebounding power was readily available from ace pogo sticks Art Oli- ver (21) and Roy Washington (24).

With Dave Daley and Pat Bekeza setting up the of- fense, the little Trojans easily beat their first six oppo- nents, only to lose the gel which held the team together. The Trojans only won three of their next 13 games, but four of their losses were by two points or less. Other regulars along with Daley and Bekeza, who were the team’s leading rebounder and scorer, respectively, were forwards John Yakubinis and Roy Jenkins, and guard Tom Camilli, all of whom should add to the strength of the var- sity squad in the next two years. 82 And Skill for Varsity Squad (ABOVE) Pat Bckcza (11) and Clyde Sisscl (34) fight for rebound as Joliet player attempts to break the ball loose from Trojan hands.

The Trojans were coached by Mr. Ron Larsen, a former Lincoln-Way coach and Mr. James Barry, a math- ematics instructor. Under their new coaching staff the grapplers won the District meet for the first time since Bloom has been participating in wrestling. The top five wrestlers were Willie Williams 22—3—2, Dwight Dunn 21—6—2, Phil Pressendo 20—6—0, Ran- dolf' Causey 20—7—0, and Charles Webster 18—7—0. In pins, heavyweight Aljay Fulton lead the team with ten, closely followed by 180 pounder Willie Williams with nine. In the 145 pound class co-captain Dwight Dunn qualified for the state meet held at Champaign. Dunn was the only wrestler in the immediate vicinity who qualified to go down state.

The grap- plers were coached by Mr. Charles Hussman and Mr. James Harry. The wrestlers were 2 12 at the end of their season and were ranked 7th in the conference. The team record was 53—105—6. Captain Ray Elberson had the best Frosh-Soph record, 9—5—3, and four pins to his credit. Four of the first twelve wrestlers were Freshmen, five of the first twelve had no previous wrestling experience, and only ten members of the whole team of twenty-five had wrestled as Freshmen. Considering this, the young matmen have done well and should improve appreciably next year. Likewise, Coach Hussman felt that the inexperi- ence of the athletics caused their team to be underrated.

The 1963 Varsity baseball team was coached by Mr. Fred Jacobeit and Mr. Sam Piazza. The 1963 season would hinge mainly on the team’s pitching strength ac- cording to Mr. Jacobeit. The mainstays on this year’s squad were third baseman John Lewis, short stop Walt Tiberi, catchers Bill Sissel and Owen Draper, pitchers Dennis Camili and Bill Wallin, and first baseman Jim Williams. The outfielders were A1 Barbour, Larry Stafford, and Dan Fazzini. In the opening game against Morgan Park Ed Sadus was the winning pitcher; Ed also tripled in this game driving in the tying and winning runs. 94 Opener and Look for Good Season Allen Barbour Owen Draper Dennis Camili Jim Williams Dan Fazzini 95 Bill Sissel Walt Tiberi Larry Stafford John Lewis Walt Tiberi smacks line drive for a base hit.

Clyde Sissel was the only mainstay from the 1962 squad to return to the 1963 squad. This was Mr. Gilbert’s second year as coach of the Frosh-Soph team and in his first year his team had a rather impressive 6 2 record and a second place in the South Suburban League. Since the annual went to press at an early date it is hard to predict just how well the Frosh-Soph will do; how- ever with three efficient pitchers and an equal number of reliable catchers the boys should go far. I he infield and outfield shows good depth which should put the team ahead in the field. 96 Small Golf Team Has Potential (LEFT TO RIGHT) John Ciaccio, Ben Tarquinio, Mr. Prombo, Mike Becker.

Away This year’s golf team is anticipating a good season and hoping to better last year’s record. However, with the competition as strong as it is in our league, the golfers have no easy road to travel. An experienced coach, Mr. John Prombo, will lead the 1963 squad in their ten meet season. With four returning lettermen from last year’s squad Mr. Prombo is expect- ing a fairly successful season and an improvement over last season’s record. Although the positions for this year’s team are wide open, Mr. Prombo feels that his return- ing lettermen can do the job if they can gain the maturity to play consistently. The schedule found at the left is incomplete due to the early publication of the annual. Meets with Homewood- Flossmoor and Rich East have not been definitely scheduled, although approximately four meets are to be held with these schools. Because of the extremely short season the competition must be met in triangular meets, and Mr. Prombo will attempt to schedule these in with the meets already planned as duel meets. 97 Bloom Tennis Teams Gain Sunshine, Varsity Tennis (Left to right) ROW 1: Jeff Ranieri, Tim Kel- ly, Tim Keller, Barry Fasmann, Ron Testa, Doug Malizia, Barry Gordan.

Here Coach Tom Deem coached this year’s Varsity tennis team in his first year in this capacity. According to Coach Deem the boys have improved since last year but to be suc- cessful they must improve more. He is working on a two year program since most of the boys are underclassmen and will be back next year. Although they lost their open- er to Rich East, the boys are optimistic and plan to win more than they lose. They are practicing in all kinds of weather and on Saturdays with their coach and on Sun- days on their own. Leading contenders for singles position are Larry Ros- en, Dave Brauer, Doug Malizia, and Les Lipschutz. The above mentioned boys plus the following are fighting for doubles positions: Tim Kelly, John Morinec, Joe Wil- liams, Barry Gordan, Pete Zagorski, Tim Keller, and Lou- is Cervera. 98 Coordination, and Victories Frosh-Soph Tennis (Left to right) ROW 1: Hank Sezney, Larry Richert, Bob Schultz, Jim Vasck, Bob Harvey, Carl Wojak. ROW 2: George Albrecht, John Yakubinas, Rich Maxwell, Almost forty boys reported for a berth on Bloom’s Frosh-Soph tennis team. After a week of practice the squad was cut to twelve (only eleven of the twenty boys pictured above compose the squad, the other being Mark Gershon who was absent). The following boys represent Bloom’s Frosh-Soph tennis squad: Mark Gershon (Fresh- man), Carl Wojack, Larry Richert (Freshman), Henry Szesny (Freshman), Jim Vasck, John Yakubinis, Larry Krueger, Todd McKay, Wayne Calderone, Otto Weise, George Albreckt, and Bob Schultz (Freshman). With one- fourth of the team composed of Freshmen and only one player with any previous experience the team will definitely have a rough time against more experienced opponents. Ac- cording to their coach, Mr. Wilburn, the team is lacking in experience but shows a great potential. If the boys con- tinue to play tennis during the summer, Bloom’s future in tennis should be quite optimistic. Wayne Calderone, Todd McKay, Maxwell Vanarsdalc.

( LEFT ) Swimmers who finished well in intramurals are pic- tured with Coach Zcschke. (RIGHT) These two wrestlers seem to be struggling hard for points. This year’s intramural program featured swimming, wrestling, table tennis, golf and tennis. Coaching these respective sports were Mr. Merle Zeschke, Mr. Donald Larsen, Mr. Stanley Sroczynski, Mr. William Dewey, and Mr. Thomas Deem. First place winners in swimming were Tom Satkowski, Joe Williams, Curt Yost, Terry Reynolds, and Jack Col- lins: the Juniors won the 100 yard medley and the Seniors were victorious in the 100 yard freestyle. Over 100 boys were out for intramural wrestling and from this group Coach Larsen was able to locate pros- pective wrestlers for his squad. In tennis the champions were James Williams and Lou- is Cevera. At this writing the other intramurals were not underway but without a doubt these will be equally suc- cessful. 101 Organization In Athletic Department (ABOVE) Mr. Frank W.

Twenty-one different faculty men work with Athletic Director Frank W. Buchtcl in Bloom’s athletic program. The program includes nine dif- ferent interscholastic high school sports and twro additional sports in the Community College. Competition with other schools is carried on by nineteen different squads ranging through Varsity, Junior-Varsity, Frosh-Soph, and Freshman levels of play. Bloom was one of the charter members of the South Suburban League and has full sched- ules in all conference events. 102 BLOOM SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS 103 GIRLS SPORTS In our tour of the outer realms of space, we mustn’t forget to take a look at the planet especially created for the female half of the species. For this reason we next stop at Girls’ Sports, a planet right in line with its other solar contemporaries. Activi- ties such as cheerleading, swimming, archer)-, and dancing are all designed to keep the women just as active as the men. Why, Girls’ Sports even has its own organizations like Orchesis and G.A.A. to help students find pleasure in their leisure! GAA Has Sports For All GAA officers and board: L. Trottier, L. Cross, V.

Training was given in the stylized backstroke, front and back crawl, sidestroke, ballet kick, surface dive, and back dolphin. The students spent every Tuesday in practice for these swimming skills. They increased their weekly practice to several days a week, a month be- fore the show. The Show was held on May 9,10, and 11. There were eleven numbers ranging from classical music to the twist. The twenty-seven Blu-Fin mem- bers were chosen by their ability and sense of rhythm. They ranged from Freshmen to Seniors. Blu-Fin officers are Donna Wilhelmsen, President; Linda Trottier, Vice-President; Lciam Meier, Secretary; and Clare Theobald, Treasurer. The other groups taking ad- vantage of the pool’s facilities arc Polliwogs and the girls’ staff of life- guards. Polliwogs. under the instruction of Mrs. Roberts, concentrated on im- proving their swimming ability for the advanced Blu-Fin swim club. Lifeguards, all of whom hold their Junior and Senior Lifesaving Certifi- cates, taught swimming to the girls’ gym classes and guarded after school during the GAA swim nights.

The program con- sisted mainly of cheerleading techni- ques, demonstration of yells by squads, new cheers, and pep rallies. Upholding the tradition of previous cheerleaders, the 1962-63 squad fur- nished the spark that brought fire to the pep assemblies, and they carried that fire from the pep assemblies to the athletic contests. Cheerleaders are a great value to their teams, but they are of no help without the support of their school. During this year’s basketball sea- son, this spirit has truly been shown in Bloom!

Majorettes Enliven Half-Time Patty Capko Darlene Bokhoven Nancy Picot Sally Reed, Captain Bill Willette While many students are thinking about the excite- ment of the week-end’s athletics, the majorettes are bound to be practicing for their part in half-time entertainment. Their ninth hours are used in practice with the band so that precision timing is the result. Their weekly program is: Tuesday, they make up their routine; Wednesday, they throw it together with the band; Thursday is their final rehearsal. They make their outfits that night. The majorettes would like to thank their sponsor, Miss Ann Petrie, for everything she has done for every one of them. They twirl for all football games and for four bas- ketball games. During his senior year, a girl or boy twirls a fire baton at the last home football game. This year the majorettes traveled with the band to North- western University for the annual Homecoming cele- bration. They twirled also for the Memorial Day parade and the Santa Claus parade. In order to receive their letters, they have to per- form for all the games during their senior year. 112 Girls Are Active in Sports 113 • • SENIORS After what seems like hours of travel, our spaceship finally arrives on the planet known as Seniors. It’s the area that we’ve heard so much about — you know, THE planet, the one with the people that everyone looks up to. Only upon arriving we realize that they’re quite different from what we’ve imagined them to be, strange characters with their noses buried deep in their books. When asked if senior year is the snap that it is said to be, they shrug their shoulders and refuse even to mention their academic problems. Why, look at the terrific social events the seniors put on, like the Post-Prom and the Senior Class Play. If it weren’t for the seniors, our solar system would certainly lack some of the bounce that it otherwise possesses.

Mrs. Marjorie Cain Mr. Sam Paravonian At the end of every school year each class stops to look over its achievements. Our senior year has involved many activities and many problems. At the beginning we felt confident that this year would be one of ease and enjoyment. Such events as the Senior Valentine Dance, the Senior Dinner, the Class Play, the Junior-Senior Prom, and the Post-Prom Party highlighted the list of activities. This year, however, was not only one of fun and frolic. We also had to study and work hard. For many this meant improving or maintaining grades in order to meet col- lege requirements. Although it was necessary to spend much time in preparation for our classes, we shall al- ways be thankful for the background that we obtained here. Already we arc beginning to realize how important the basic fundamentals are that we have received. With graduation the Class of ’63 is spread throughout the United States, but each member will recall the memo- rable years spent at Bloom. Mr. Charles Hubacek, senior class sponsor, helps board mem- bers plan the activities for each year and decide on impor tant issues. 119 Class Rosemary Acosta William Adams Bettie Adema David Ainscough Patricia Ainscough Nadine Alberson Darryl Allen James Ammirati Michael Amor Jacqueline Amos David Anderson Nancy Anderson Roger Angellotti John Arata Minerva Austin Allan Barbour Jewel Barnes Ruth Ann Barnes Deedie Barnett Larrie Barrett Rose Azzarello Barbara Bachar Marlene Baker Karen Bakkcr Robert Barberi 120 Christine Basile Ralph Bava Michael Becker Robert Behlke Arnetta Bennett Louise Benni Ann Berner Judith Beyer Charles Birong David Bishop David Bivona Leonard Bivona Oren Bock Kenneth Booth Richard Borak Dianne Borccki Anne Borton Joseph Bourque Doris Boyd Barbara Bozenich Rufus Bradford Catherine Brink Larry Brittain Barbara Bronaugh Henry Bronaugh 121 Class Annie Brooks David Bros .

Only a few minutes after we have stop- ped at this relatively large body in our solar system, we discover a wide range in the abilities of the inhabitants that make up Underclassmen. Unsuspecting freshmen and confident juniors all seem to be working diligently to leave their mark in Bloom’s Hall of Fame. All the time that they are doing this they are ex- cellent rivals to their senior contemporaries. From the Freshman Mixer to the Junior-Senior Prom our underclassmen are proving that in their skill and know-how lies the key to future success. UNDERCLASS Juniors Demonstrate Leadership President Steve Grant Vice-President Toby Tyler Secretary Linda Iafollo Treasurer Jeanne DeLuca Juniors of the Class of ’64 proved them- selves more than equal to the challenges of the junior year. They participated in the National Merit and College Board Exams, the National Mathematics Contest, and were inducted into the National Honor Society. They re- ceived more homework, participated in more extra-curricular activities, and accepted ad- ditional responsibilities. The biggest event of the year was the Prom, which was financed through the suc- cess of the Junior Jamboree. The Jamboree was a highlight of the year for this spirited class. All of the Junior homerooms contrib- uted their share to make this event a hit. There are many other memorable events that the Class of ’64 will recall as the year draws to a close. There was the work of at- tracting customers to the football and bas- ketball concession stands. Selling pencils and other items that the Junior Board had se- lected for moneymaking projects was some times a worrisome task. Other events that rounded out the junior year were acquiring a driver’s license and attending many memorable dances.

Sophomores Learn Through Tom Parisi President Howard Perry Vice President Paula De Prosperis Secretary Carole Pavlik Treasurer With a year of participation at Bloom as freshmen, the class of ’65 entered school this fall to begin another year of activities. Among the first activities were the Sophomore Mixer, the selling of refresh- ments at the football and basketball games, and the participation in the va- rious clubs that were offered. Most members of the class were first introduced to foreign languages and confusing theorems in geometry. They also made career notebooks and read “Julius Caesar” in English. Rounding out the activities of the year was their voluntary work in Stu- dent Council projects and decorating for the commencement exercises. Sophomore baton twirler William Willette is just one out of a few hundred sophomores who participated in Bloom’s activities throughout the entire school year. 156 Experience and Participation ROW I: S.

This seems to be the idea of Howard Perry, Melody Hein, and Tom Parisi, as each takes a turn at emptying Pepsi bottles during the Gym Jam. 168 During the school year all students taking biology are required to dissect a frog. Here, a student tackles one of the many problems confronting him during the course of dissection. Under the watchful eye of Mr. Paul Coseuza, Leon Hamm works with one of the many ma- chines offered to students enrolled in industrial education. 169 Frustrated Freshmen Settle Bob Lane President Janice Capriotti Vice President Sandra Nordell Secretary Pat Barwig T rcasurer On August 31 some 900 freshmen entered Bloom in awe at the immensity of the size of the school. The first week was one of many frustrations. One could hear the almost inr articulate murmurs such as: “Where’s room 301?” “My locker’s been moved! I could have sworn it was right here yesterday.” and the like. As the second and third week of school progressed, however, the tiny Trojans settled down and discovered that their locker was always in the music wing after all! They soon accustomed themselves to the true Bloomite way of life. In preparation for class elections, they held their annual mixer at which they be- came acquainted with their classmates, some of whom would lead their class. After elec- tion week a freshman could not be distin- guished from any other Bloomite. They also elected, within each homeroom, two representatives and two alternates. One pair was for Student Council, to inform the homeroom of the City of Bloom’s activities, and the other was for Freshman Board, to plan the class’s fund-raising activities. Emerging from the library arc freshmen Eileen Verduin, Van Vogt, and Roxanne Angclini. 170 Down to Everyday Bloom Lite Freshman Board: ROW 1: A. Contreras, R. Rossi, W. Paulk, L. Valois, A. Beenes.

Each member of the Bloom Township High School and Community College Board of Education strives to serve the community by giving time and effort to improve Bloom’s edu- cational facilities. This year the Board, aided by the Citizens Advisory Commit- tee, proposed the idea of a two- year high school. A referendum in December was passed by the community, and the building should be ready for occupancy by the fall of 1964. The Board’s counterpart, the P.T.A., develops between the public and educators such united efforts as will secure for every student the best advantages in physical and mental education. This organization strives for greater co-operation between home and school. Bloom P.T.A.
