CLASS HISTORY So begins the history of the Class of '53 and so begins one of the most enjoyable and most unforgettable eras of our lives. When we became Freshmen, we were like any other Freshman class, timid, looking up to those towering upperclassmen, and thinking of the day fwhich then seemed like all eternity to usl when we would ourselves be Seniors. In this our Freshman year we were ably led by Howard Lundell, Presidentg Peter Rogers, Vice President, Patricia Walsh, Secretary: and May Ceysen, Treasurer. We received much help from our ad- visors, Mrs. Helen Krotky and Mr. James DeFrancisco, in this our great premiere. The accent of this year was our first dance, the Freshman Frolic, a square dance with the theme L'Make Mine Country Stylev under the direction of Edith Nyman. We also got a chance to show our salesmanship ability by participating in the school's annual magazine campaign, which proved to be a great success. History must go on, so onward moved the Class of ,53, rising to exalted Sophomores. We were again this year under the leadership of Howard Lundell assisted by Peter Rogers, Vice President, Joanne Rittman, Secretary, and Patricia Walsh, Treasurer. Miss Anna Clark and Mr. C. Blair McLean had the job of guiding us through this, our Sophomore year. The highlight of this year proved to be our Sophomore Hop under the title of 'gYounger Than Springtimef, Again the gym was decorated appropriately for the occasion and music was furnished by a well-known orchestra. The chairmanship was in the capable hands of Edith Nyman. We gained much recognition this year when one of our members, Patricia Walsh was inducted into the National Honor Society and another of our members, Carol Byloff acquired a large role in the play Harvey, put on by the Powder and Puff Club. We ended this our Sophomore year with a class picnic at Ocean Beach, which everyone agreed, was a great success. When we moved on to become Juniors, we were again led by Howard Lundell, Pres- identg Peter Rogers, Vice President, Edith Nyman, Secretary, and Anna Hartinger, Treasurer.
