Senior Class Histor Mary Ann Uthe This year saw the DART climaxing 50 golden years of serving us, the students of AHS. Through those years fond memories have been built up and resounding echoes recall life in our school. We, the Class of 1958, have had our share in forming memories and ,are proud to present this epitome of our ac- complishments. With a cast of 30, the Senior Class brought to a success- ful close their play, Caesar and Cleopatra, a comedy by George Bernard Shaw. Leads were played by Kathy McKin- ley, Terry Schwab, Emily Fisher, and Dick Severa, in that order. Students from R. A. Ball's civics classes, who composed the annual election board were Jack Allio, Nancy Kresovich, Kathy McKinley, Darlene Peaspanen, Fred Temple, and Mary Ann Uthe. Against a background of music and pen- nants the candidates rallied for votes in the true spirit of democracy. Edging out his opponents, Louie DeWein copped the post of Senior prexy. Larry Scafuro was elected vice- president, Emily Fisher, secretary, and Bob Brumley, treas- urer. Chief executive of our student governing body, the Senate, was president, Larry Jepson. Right hand man for him, Louie DeWein was vice-president. Betsy Howsmon was in charge of clerical duties.

In keeping with our 50th year of publications, the Gold Key Club was the name given to an association of parents and teachers who work with the Student Service Club. Their main obiective is to boost school spirit, advocate good sportsmanship, and encourage academic accomplishment and congeniality.

Adding their sup- port to the team were senior lettermen Dave Allen, Steve Candela, Larry Jepson,.and Dom Volpone. Larry Jepson, tackle, and Dom Volpone, guard, made the All County first string, while Steve Candela tied for second string backfield. Candela and Jepson also took positions on the NEC first team.

Senior lettermen, who combined their efforts with the rest of the team to give Bula another successful basketball sea- son, were Jack Allio, Ricky Bryant, Steve Candela, Larry Jep- son, Dick Laszlo, and Jim Smith. The boys were rewarded for their efforts by cheerleaders Marilyn Palumbo and Nancy Pearson who put pep into the fans. Baseball lettermen of '57 were Jack Allio, Steve Candela, and Dennis Minick.
