Jim gm pg 55' Left to right-Gary Weaver, secretary: Bill Carney, treasurer: Mr. Iames Rittner, adviser: Michael Prebish, president: Ronald Regetti, vice president. With our efficient president, Mike Prebish, setting, the pace, the class of '55 pitched in to help make our senior year a memorable one. Mr. Bittner, adviser, was just the stimulus we needed. Dances were held every Friday after the home football and basketball games. The con- cession stands at the athletic field, the magazine subscription campaign, and all-purpose cards sale also helped to build our finances. All work and no play was certainly not the motto of the class of '55. In extra-curricular activities we were outstanding. The football squad was manned by twelve seniors, wrestling squad had four, the basketball team, eight: the baseball team, five, and the track team. seven. Ron Reghetti was elected most valuable player and Bill Carney honorary captain by their teammates for the football season. William Glass was elected most valuable player and Richard Stanley honorary captain for the basketball season. The band boasted fourteen members from the senior class. Marcie Trexler and Carol Con- rad represented us in All-County Band and Chorus. Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you die, may be just an old philosophy, but for the seniors it recalls a real experience: namely, the ball and banquet. The banquet was held on April 27, at the Legion, and the following night, the ball. Have fun? You bet. Ask any senior and he'll tell you. Following three days of hard thinking came class day. Thrilled and happy, the seniors marched into the study hall to take their seats, while all the underclassmen stood silently by to Witness the last senior class meeting. It included a roll call dating back to our Freshman year. Then came May 25, the last time the Wonderful class of '55 Was together. Graduation ex- ercises were held in the Legion. The World re ceived 95 happy, fun-loving, boys and girls from Cresson Ioint High School.
