We were all very happy and thought ours were the prettiest of any yet. 1959- 1960 At last we were Juniors I Again this year we had 64 members, and, as in the other two years, our home room was the study hall, and our advisors were Mr. Meyer and Mr. Leatherman. During summer vacation that year Robert Mason moved back to New Castle, Pennsylvania. Our class officers were: President Dave Papoi Secretary Jim Burkey Vice President Lester Drewes Treasurer Darlene Steffen On September 12, 1959, our class rings finally arrived. They were everything we thought they would be. Our float, The Spirit Of 1776, won first prize in the Halloween parade. The attendants from our class were Mary Jane Gerschutz and Gary Gribbell. Five boys made Varsity, namely; Howard Powell, John Watson, Lester Drewes, Jim Burkey, and Steve Price.

We chose, We Shook The Family Tree, and Marianne Wensink and John Watson had the lead rolls. Mrs. Schwiebert was our director. May 7, 1960, was the date of the Junior-Senior Prom. We chose Bali Hai” as our theme and deco- rated the gym in a tropical atmosphere. It really looked sharp! 1960- 1961 Our Senior year—it was hard to believe that it had finally arrived. We began the year with 58 mem- bers. We finally achieved a new home room, Room 24, which is considered to be the Senior home room.
