amlcfiag On that September morn of 1042 the rain lashed down, but it could not dash our joy in being freshmen. Rain or shine we had at last entered the sacred portals of high school. Our first day was one of meandering marches, haughty looks from upper classmen. new acquaintances. and initiation into the whys and wherefores of schedules. absenteeism, and detained slips. During the hectic days that followed we grew used to the bustle and managed to elect John Marks. president: Jean Sullivan. vice- president: Beverly Siegal, secretaryg Allyn Hoffman, treasurer. With this quartet in the driveris seat we made history by holding a Freshman Dance-the first in many a moon. By June the green- ness had worn off a little. and we began to feel like vets. Sophomore year. we must admit. was the most melancholy year of our stay at l'i.l7.A. We devoted our hours to study and books- a dance. what's that? Not even the whole-hearted efforts of James Maynard as president, Theresa Ford as vice president. Marjorie Williams as secretary. and Ray Cicconi as treasurer could arouse us out of our reverie. ln our junior year the old hre came back! We surged ahead under the adroit leadership of John Casson. president: Barbara Evans. vice-presidentg Mary Thomas. recording secretaryg Beverly Siegal. corresponding secretary: and Charles Sullivan. treasurer. Fun and frolic were the order of the day as the coins rolled in at our Snowball Shufllef' ln early lVlay came the long-awaited event -Junior Day. The school saw red and white as we stepped proudly down the aisle in our dazzling finery. At night we gaily tripped the light fantastic at our Junior Prom. A whirlwind political campaign began our final year at E.l7.A. ln a close election we chose Richard Rohde as our chief executive: Barbara Crawford. vice-president: Barbara Garvey, scribe: and William Nlichalko. treasurer. We got off to a flying start with the Shivaroo Swirlw under the chairmanship of Janet Stemerman and Robert Cesari. Swing your partner to and fro! Next on the docket came a skating party at Grotto managed by Barbara Beecher and Robert Shaffer. All the worldis a stage or it was that May night when the Senior Class presented The Life of the Partyv to an enthusiastic public. For the record. we received only applause-no vegetables of any description. 'Wlho would have thought that we had another Bank- head and Peck in Flo Ann Avery and Richard Rohde. the stars? lVlr. Colgan deserves highest praise for proving that there's talent in this har class. How we relished Senior Day when we paraded in blue and white! The honor list was announced and there were yearbooks to sign! Weill never feel so movie-starrish again as when the fresh- men threw yearbooks at us right and left. The Senior Banquet with the traditional will and prophecy climaxed this day of days. Now comes the time to say good-by to all we've known and loved these past four years. As we go our individual paths we cannot help thinking of E.F'.A. The days we spent here are etched forever in our memories. H0 :gl ,,. -.ge,Z,,, 4 AM' N 0 V 6 if V ,bg Sade' . 0'
