OUR SENIOR OFFICERS Thomas Flaherty PRESIDENT Judith Cardoza VICE-PRESIDENT Virginia Joyce SECRETARY Bernard Walsh TREASURER FRESHMAN YEAR . . . Now that graduation is near, it seems impossible that tour years have passed since the first day we entered C.H.S. as bewildered Freshmen. As we gazed at the Seniors it seemed we never would attain that distinction. We weathered the storm of all the jokes and jeers of the upper- classmen — maybe because we didn ' t know any better. That year, under the direction of our capable class advisor we elected the fol- lowing officers: John Joyce, President; Carol Nicolletti, Vice-President; Bernard Walsh, Treasurer; Joanne Innamorati, Sec- retary. Time flew by as we got into the swing of things. We attended the annual Thanks- giving Show and had our class entry in the Interclass Dramatics. In January we had a taste of the Midyears, which we had heard so much about. ■■WHAT ... Me Work?”

On February 6, much to our surprise, we arrived at school to find that we no longer had a building — as we saw the flames take our school, we knew that many fond memories went down with that Alma Mater. We were the last class to graduate that had spent any time in the original C.H.S. As June arrived, we knew we would no longer be called the Frosh and looked forward to our Sophomore Year with great enthusiasm. SOPHOMORE YEAR... Once again we returned to C.H.S. but this time it was we who played the jokes. When we had settled down to work we held class elections. The results showed James Davidson, President; Judith Car- doza, Vice-President; Bernard Walsh, Treasurer; Virginia Joyce, Secretary. We started projects to build up our Treasury. We slid through midyears like Pros with the system of getting the most done in the least time. In May we received our class rings which we treasured above all other things. Our disappointment that year was the loss of our unforgettable class advisor, Mrs. Patrick Hastings. When we learned she had taken a job in another school system our hearts were saddened because we knew we had lost not only a great teacher but also a true friend. Now we looked forward to our Junior Year with great expectations.
