N' Points, dollars pile up via sales of cokes, cards, candy, etc Money, money, money-that's what the Senior Class of i959 sought and got for their Senior trip and gift to Bentley. Concession stands during the football and basketball seasons were run feverently by Seniors busily selling cokes, potato chips, and candy to hun- gry spectators. Early winter saw citizens of Livonia and surrounding communities greeting the Seniors who were then selling boxes upon boxes of candy and Christmas cards. Further to prevent bankruptcy in the treasury, funds were derived from booster buttons, sweat shirts, auto stickers, and book covers.

Each class presents its school with a core of students who work hard in class and for extra-curricular activi- ties too. Their own lives are enriched in almost direct proportion to the service they do for others. Boomer- ang-like, the honors come back to them. ln the summer between their junior and senior years, six Bentley students participated in Wolverine Boys' State and one attended Wolverine Girls' State. In mid-year, DAR Good Citizen and Betty Crocker awards were an- nounced. At the annual awards assemblies, students received recognition for their contributions in all areas of school life. Scholarship winners and the top senior honor students were also announced. Meredith Keras was BentIey's selection as DAR Good Citizen for 1958-1959. Honors are reward for service to school and community 7. -Ts , . - vm. in ' 1-1 gone l if i , x ' f I sv ivtl l 1 'SZ' V and Tony Petrilli Reminiseing about the wonderful two weeks spent at Wol verine Boys' and Girls' State at Mtch igan State and the University of Much igan ore Stew Pap: neau, Bill Schnel Carroll Roose, Mary Pope, Carl Hansen
