Let's hop down to Denver to visit the exclusive dress shop run by PATRICIA NEWCOMER and JOANN SCHOKORA. We will stop in Texas to see JOHN LEAZIER who is doing very well as an oil tycoon. Once again we are in good old Pennsylvania. To be exact, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We visit the Shaffer Memorial Hospital to see GERALD SHAFFER, head surgeon. LINDA METZGAR has made sev- eral important discoveries during her work as a lab technician. The former PATRICIA FLEEGLE, now mar- ried, also lives in Pittsburgh and does social work here. . Now we will stop in a town even closer to home: Somerset. located here is the office of the President of the Pennsylvania Fireman's Association. And who is the president? JAMES HAHN, of course. His able assistant is MARTIN EAKLE. DOLLEY PETERMAN, tourist guide for the rapidly expanding resort town, invites us to visit the beautiful Lake Somerset. Why, there's JACK GEORG, he's head lifeguard of all the beach. ln a lovely new house along the Stoystown Road we find the former MARY ANN DONITZEN. She tells us happily that her occupation is housewife. We will return to our starting place, Kantner, to pay a visit to Forbes High School. We are welcomed back by CONNI GOHN, a teacher in her old Alma Mater. The future looks bright indeed, doesn't it? But, like most other peeks into the future, it is all wishful thinking. Only time will tell what is really in store for the optimistic Senior Class of l957. Um flwku TWELFTH GRADE ELEVENTH GRADE Class Officers Class Officers President ......,.... ......

eatival Queen The Annual Somerset County Fall Fes- tival was held in October of this term in connection with Pennsylvania Week. The purpose of the Festival was to better ac- quaint the people of Somerset County with the various activities and industries in the area. Each school chose a queen to reign over one event at the Festival, which in- cluded such events as a Parade, a dins ner at Oakhurst Tearoom, a Square Dance, and the Coronation Ball. The queen chosen to represent Forbes High School was Her Maiesty, Joann Schokora. Joann, who has blonde hair and blue eyes, is an attractive member of the senior class. She wore a light green gown, and she made a lovely Fall Festival Queen. ' S . X F E 35 .Q 3 ' A 'fi tile. .t qv ' ' at i 3-in 3 4 Ig? R Queen The Maple Queen of Somerset Coun- ty is chosen each year from contestants representing high schools of the county. These contestants, known as princesses, are selected by methods which vary with the school. The winner this year will be 'Pennsyl- vania's Queen Maple the Tenth, and the two runners-up will become Maids of Honor. All other contestants will become princesses in the Maple Queen's court. Miss Shirley Keith, a blue-eyed blonde, is the Maple Princess from Forbes this year. She was chosen on a basis of personality, appearance, and talent by three outside judges in a contest held on January 4 at our school. Shirley has a lovely soprano voice, and has selected as her talent number the song, Let My Song Fill Your Heart.
