The class of 1955, has finally reached its goal-- graduation! Yet it seems like only yesterday that we started as timid freshmen. Looking back through those four years we saw many things which our class did. When we were freshmen in 1951, we sponsored a roller skating party and also a dance. Mr. I. Northstine was a class sponsor. In our sophomore year we ordered our class rings, which arrived in May. We sold candy bars and potato chips, and checked coats at all home basket- ball games to raise money. We started an annual family night dinner for the class members and their parents. Mr. Nothstine guided us again this year. In our junior year we had a magazine sale during the fall and Roberta Jesswein's team won. This year we had our family night dinner and Christmas party combined. During the year we sold popcorn at basketball games, and a memory book, School Daze, For enjoyment we held class dances. ln April we presented the junior play, No Boys Second Semester Officers Dale smekey, President Linton Schinske, Vice-President Pat Tropp, Secretary Dick Wetzel, Treasurer Marcia Gark, Reporter ,. 2 on t Juf 14 Senior Officers First Semester Officers Jim Shank, President Marcia Gark, Vice President Pat T1-opp, Secretary Dick Wetzel, Treasurer Norm Stemm, Reporter Class Flower Red Rose Class Colors White and Crimson Class Motto Life Is What You Make Allowed.

Uncer Mr. Nothstine's direction, we succeeded in all of our activities. Our senior year, has been the most memorable of the four. We worked hard, and also had most fun. We frantically tried to earn enough money for the senior trip to Washington D,C. We had a conces- tion stands and sold popcorn and ice cream bars at all of the home football games. Paper drives and bake sales also helped raise our funds. ln Novem- ber the senior play, The Campbells are Coming, was presented under the direction of Miss Rose Mary Good. We also had a spaghetti supper and a ham supper, which were the two biggest money raising projects of the year. Our advisor for the senior year was Mr. Ado Tenaglia.
