E, THE CLASS of nineteen hundred and fifty-four, look back with pride on our past years of school and realize we have accomplished something of great value-a priceless education. Our four years at high school were marked with friendship, a spirit of optimism and fair play, and our best efforts to achieve high scholastic records. Our freshman year was a period of adjustment and cooperation. It was in this year that we were joined by the students from Old Tappan, Haworth, and Harrington Park. We voted for the first time, and Thomas Sheehan became our S. O. Representative. ' The New Milford students entered our ranks in our sophomore year. The Freshman Reception we gave was greatly enjoyed by all those who attended. It gave us quite a thrill when our classmates began playing football on the varsity squad. We then began to realize the hope of having a winning football team in our senior year. Our class officers for that year were: jean Berryman, president: Patricia Nelson, vice president: Mildred Wilhelm, secretary: Thomas Forrest, treasurer:' and Judith Dyckmann, S. O. Representative. For the Junior Barn Dance, to which the school looked forward with eager anticipation. we decorated the gymnasium as a huge barn with horse stalls along either side. Bales of hay were placed in the corner, and at one end was located a jail. The junior Prom was held at the Hackensack Women's Club, and music was provided by Larry Kay and his band. The class ofiicers for this year were: jules Auger, president: Ellen Williams, vice president: joan Rutz,, secretary: Ellen Ehrmann, trea- surer: and Patricia Nelson, S. O. Representative. Our senior year was marked by our entrance into numerous activities including football, basketball, baseball, the PERISCOPE, REVERIES, the Senior Play, S. O. Night, and our Sno-Ball. Of course, we were all thrilled at having a championship football team in our senior year. Everyone was overjoyed when, after the event- ful Westwood game, the team came home victorious, bearing the title of Bergen County Scholastic League Champions of 1953. Robert Barton served as the school's able 'S. O. President. Class officers were: jules Auger, president: Evelyn Samler, vice president: Joan Rutz, secretary: jean Eyrich, treasurer: and Patricia Nelson, S. O. Representative. As we go on to acquire a broader education or out into the world to follow careers, we shall look back with love and loyalty to the school and its teachers who have so carefully tried to mold our lives. To their insight and ability we owe much for what we are yet to become.
