Senior Class History We finally made it to that glorified institution called high school. A year of real adjustment and definite changes. N.F.T. awarded us with yellow bus cards. Suit- coats and ties for the boys, and neat uniforms for the girls, gave us that new lift we needed. Before we knew it we were were caught up in a whirlwind of social events. Assemblies, games, dances, parties-all so new to us, and all so much fun. Remember the night of the Fresh- man party? Or the Christmas drama Merry Christmas Mr. Baxterw? Before we knew it mid-term exams were here. And then the surprise of the year, Baker-Victory defeats Bishop Timon in the basketball playoffs. Let's not forget the Freshman-Sophomore picnic at Olcott Beach. Between baseball, swimming, and the amusement rides, we all had a marvelous time. Soon it was time for judgment day-June exams. Happy to say most of us made the grade. So this was Freshman year 1958-59-a year of meeting people, a year full of good old enjoy- ment. Thus ends chapter one. New faces, new surroundings, new ways, and new white bus buttons, this is what our Sophomore Year greeted us with. We were filled with delirium as we entered the Baker building, leaving the antiquated Freshman building behind. It took us awhile to adjust to the system of classes not being coed, but we found out it was not too bad after all! We expressed our sublime feelings by cheering our basketball team on to victory after victory and a first place tie in the Bishop Burke Division. The big event of the year was the sophomore party in the gym. All this excitement passed by as quickly as it came. Already it was June and we knew we had to buckle down to acquire what the Junior year had in store for us. Thus close of chapter two. . Junior year seemed to give us a new pride in the school, a new feeling of maturity-we were now Upperclassmen. The year started with accepting the invitation of the seniors to attend their ring ceremony. We couldn't help imagining ourselves next year in their places. Junior year 128 was full of all those nice activities: dances, games, as- semblies. The dramatic artists proved their abilities in the Lively Arts of Sister Gervaise and Barter. Who could forget the Christmas assembly when we all sang like professionals. The Junior Skating party was one to remember. Well, the long-awaited day finally arrived- our first prom f'Enchante held at the K. of C. Hall on April 21, 1961. Party dresses, bouquets, and bootineers made our first prom evening so unforgetable. After the prom we settled down and hit the books. Let us not forget those exhausting scholarship exams. June found us as usual preparing for our fate-the Regents. Thus chapter three ends. We made it! fYellow bus buttons this yearj. Step aside froshg make way for a senior. This year gives way to a new change in faculty policy: homerooms attending Mass in the chapel, our first outdoor pep rally, an overflow of school spirit. November sees us dressed in our Sunday best proceeding to the basilica eagerly awaiting those dis- tinctive class rings. And in the evening the Ring Dance with Johnny Brooks and some talented Juniors making everything perfect. Our last Christmas assembly left us a little sad. Dra- matics did it again. Three one act plays were profession- ally enacted. Our Skating Party at the Skate Haven was loads of fun. The basketball team compiled a tremendous record. Our last senior retreat, we're really going to miss them. The most important three events are yet to comeg Class Day, Prom Night, and the Class Picnic. Our Prom will be held at the Hotel Buffalo on May 11th. We're looking forward to those caps and gowns. Four years of enjoyment, people, and more enjoyment. We are going to really miss the assemblies, games, dances, basilica, retreats, regents, and even the bus buttons. To the under- classmen we say, make the best of your four years. Be active, school-spirited, and, most of all, center your four happy years around 'LHim. The close of chapter four.
