 ' pc - Frosh Judy Welch, Nancy Skinner, Tim Russell, Santa Parisi, and Pat Hennessy prepare victorious debate over Sophomores. Council members, seated: Martha Morrison, Pat McIntyre, Bobette Chennells, Leslie Vargo. Beverly Martin. Standing: Sharon Stringer, Linda Wyman, Happy Drake, John Wendt, and Barbara Smith. LIFE CAN BE MIGHTY BEWILDERING On the first day of school, September 5th, the Freshmen foresaw the future as an unsolvable puzzle. During that first day especially, confusion was everywhere. After welcoming speeches in the auditorium, the Freshmen were assigned homerooms. The eight homerooms and their teachers were: II, Mr. Hawkins; 202, Mr. Scott; 206, Mr. Buckley; 211, Miss Dennis; 306, Mr. Perfetti; 309, Mr. Stevens; 312, Mrs. Nacinovich; 314, Mr. Kenney. Going to classes that first day, Student Council members were quite a help in directing the Frosh but many still got lost. And the next day—oh, those upperclassmen. After confusion died down, the class elected Millard 'Happy1 Drake as president and Leslie Vargo as secretary. Elected Student Council representatives were: II, Bobette Chennels; 202, Martha Morrison; 206, Barbara Smith; 211, Pat McIntyre; 306, Sharon Stringer; 309, Beverly Martin; 312, John Wendt; 314, Linda Wyman. On October 19, the Freshmen made their mark in Butler when they emerged victorious from the Freshman—Sophomore Debate. The topic was Resolved: that television is beneficial to students. With the screeching of cats and the screaming of witches came the Freshman Halloween party on October 26. An evening of dancing, games, and refreshments was carefully planned. Prizes were given to Santa Parisi, Cynthia Steele, Nancy Skinner, and Maureen McNomee. The whole evening was marked on the record as a howling good time. The annual Freshman play allowed the future actors and actresses of the class to show their ability. This year the Freshman and Sophomores combined their acting talents to present a play to the student body on February 14th and 15th. This comedy kept the audience in stitches. In the spring a few of the Freshmen girls had the exciting experience of being chosen floaters to check coats, serve refreshments, and take tickets at the Prom. The Class of I960 has made a good start in solving the puzzle and is anticipating the future as Sophomores. Believe-it-or-not this is a preview of a Junior Prom. These are a few of the Freshmen sorting out left and right feet in the beginners' dancing club. The finer movements come a bit later.
