FORWARD If we might have a second chance To live the days once more, And rectify mistakes we’ve made To even up the score. If we might have a second chance To use the knowledge gained.

George Renard also joined the staff this year to drive the extra bus. Don¬ ald Wautier, Robert Zephirin and Harvey Vandertie who were with us for the past several years also helped to make our daily trips more enjoyable. Donald Alsteen took over the janitorial duties again this year. To all staff members—here is another sincere vote of thanks.

As we look back on our high school days, we realize the importance of our education in many ways and especially we find we are now leaving wonderful friends and teachers witfr whom we were associated during our school days, Gone are the days when we were eager to find ways of losing an hour.

One of the major transitions was the change from tiie two column to three column arrange¬ ment which characterizes large school newspapers. This allowed room for news headings and pic¬ tures which attracted attention. The seniors assume the major responsibility for publishing our paper, but the reporters were made up of a cross section of the student body with everyone having an oppor¬ tunity to sign up.

The Bronco is the product of hard work and conscientious thought on the various members of the Bronco Staff. The members of the Bronco Staff with the assistance of the Editor Betty Lampereur and the Assistant Editor Shirley Franda, feel that they have done their beet to produce a yearbook with emphasis on those things that most interest the student body. We hope this annual will give each student a lasting remem¬ brance of his schoolmates and the various activities in which they participated Student Gonncil i f • Standing : D. Tebon, Pavlik, J.

This group, organized, in 19 7 and made up of two representatives fran each class, promotes activities which will bene¬ fit the student body and advance the interests of the school. The Council under the direction of Mr. David holds frequent meet¬ ings with the following officers presiding: Gail Sacotte, Pres; Jerry Schley, Vice Pres.; and Ber¬ tha Nellis, Secretary Tr easurer. Among some of the activities planned by the group are the Car¬ nival, school parties, and noon hour activities such as dancing, volley-ball, ping pong and our ex¬ citing basketball tournaments. Future plans of the Student Council call for continued coopera¬ tion with the faculty, increased voice in school affairs, and the promotion of greater school spirit.

Queen Shirley LeRoy, leader in the advance ticket sales contest, and her Prin¬ cess, Patsy Guth, reigned supreme as their happy subjects made merry to the music of Bob Mlada and his orchestra. Shirley was the fourth consecutive soph¬ omore candidate to win the queers crown. The crowning took place at the Cor¬ onation Ball on Sunday evening. The Queen s Court of Honor consisted of the candidates from other classes. Carol Koehler, the senior candidate chose John Lardinois as her escort.

Improving stead¬ ily despite lack of reserves, the boys culminated the season by a de¬ cisive defeat over Mischicot. Only a close defeat at the hands ol Sev¬ astopol prevented them from finish¬ ing with a .500 average for the year. To say that the team wanted to win would be putting it mildly. Fighting against over-v helming odds both in number and size, on three occasions, they managed to let the opponent know they have been in a ball game. fyooiball Tw ■ .n f it I 1 1 t; kw a . |j 1 i ft fs V Q i I £ . m r i C I ■ , ■A H 1 ' i ■ - S J L«r m i jP ' jgr ft Wr M j V J r Li a, L • £T m � . . ,1b V • V 1 - - • K Jr J| 1 Jljk JHi, um £? ■ A [ wi A iJf AI gOGK G -B.
