Sometimes the visitation requires a lot of advance planning on the part ol' the person or firm visited. We appreciate the kindness of these patrons of the school. It is impossihle to have pictures of all field trips made during this year, how- cver, we have chosen three expeditions. Other valuahle trips which students have en- joyed are: a visit to the Bloomshurg Public Library, a hike to the Fire Tower in con- nection with conservation, a guided shopping tour, an inspection of our county jail, an explanation of a hanking institution, watching the election hoard in operation, and tours through various industries.

Class of '54 We opened the door to the Junior home room and it was fairly buzzing with activity. The class was having its monthly meeting and, as always, there were a great many important things on the agenda. The Junior-Senior prom was under discussion. First the theme was discussed and agreed upong then other details were decided by the class. The committees were appointed to carry out the plans. This class was socially inclined and made a point of having some kind of social function each month. They sponsored three square dances for the student body, skating parties, a Hallowe'en party, and the Prom. Jumping Jupiteri' was produced by the thespians, and countless hot dogs and candy liars were sold at the games to add money to their coffer. Their class oflicers were: president, Tom Harderg vice-president, Shirley Artleyg secretary, Shirley Yeagerg treasurer, Renee Fettermang adviser, Mrs. McCern. 13
