Without the contribution of the members of the Photography Club in time, energy, and the resulting production, there would be no Corinthian, and the News would be much less inter¬ esting. Their work has been invaluable, and certainly in rhe years to come these pictures will bring the Hum and our classmates clear in our minds. Our yearbook in almost unique in the fact that the writing, the photogaphy, the layout, and the printing are all done by yearbook staff members within the College. Certainly this is an accomplishment of which we can all be proud. The photography is, of course, no small part of this. The officers of the Club were: President, Thomas Stocker; Vice-President, Thomas Davies; Secretary Treasurer, James Gallagher. They developed a well organized activity and a new spirit of accomplishment which improved the reader’s interest in our publications. They have earned our praises. The Club, on behalf of the Class of ’66, sincerely thanks Mr. Perley Pease for the time and work he so generously gave to the members. His expert advice on many phases of photography has stimulated the work of this organization. This is an activity which becomes an increasing benefit to the members sand which will probably be carried ton through life. Shutterbugs are everywhere;at tevery age and the present Club members will always be among them.

To institute the modernization of the facilities new counters were purchased. In the past there had been a kind of work-it-out policy with no changes made during the year. This was abruptly shattered when Manager Morris Goldberg implemented a Midyear reorganization which he felt to be necessary for greater efficiency. Of course, Founder’s Day and the two Mothers’ Days were high spots in the Center’s year. But it is the day-to-day student buying—ice cream, candy, soda and cookies, which makes the store worthwhile. The operation of the Center is one of the most responsible and demanding activities in Girard. The hours of work are seldom known and the recognition given is far less than the work contributed. The profits also have more meaning to the student body than the students generally realize. The expenses of the dances held during the year and particularly the Canteen dances are paid for by the Center. The Class of 1966 is grateful to Mr. George Dunkle who for many years has contributed his energy and time to make the Hummers’ lives a bit pleasanter through the Student Center offerings. Recently ahtletic and science equipment has been under¬ written by the store. Of course a percentage of the profits goes back into equipment and furnishings for the Center. Finally, students benefit by earning money monthly. i 23 J.

First Row, Left to Right: Mr. Perley Pease, Mrs. Perlcy Ptase, Dr. James White Second Row, Left to Right: Mr. Patrick Petrillo, Mr. Norman Sherman, Mr. Gregor Erdenberger, Dr. William Zeil. 1954, 1955, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, I960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966. These dates will long be remembered as our years in the Hum. The troubles, joys, failures, and successes encountered throughout this span, cannot be forgotten. But the final touch to this good life was our Senior year. Who can forget the first night back and our first Senior Class party; the raucous and fishy tales brought back from the Senior’s favorite resort, Wildwood, New Jersey; the frequent visits to the A; the 1st floor musketeers; the shaving cream battles; the in-crowd;” the boys; and the out-crowd?” Odier unforgettable highlights were Babiak’s home movies, the Baron’s constant feud, and those quiet Saturday nights. But these enjoyable memories could not have come about were it not for the unceasing guidance and help of Dr. William Zeil, Dr. James White. Mr. and Mrs. Pearley Pease, Mr. Gregor Erdenberger, and Mr. Patrick Petrillo. Our big year is drawing to a close and, widi it, our lives at Girard. We, the class of 1966, have tried to live up to the expectations and responsibilities that only a Senior knows. Soon we will be on our own, in a world torn with strife, pestilence, and war. As we step out the gate and into the future, we will forget many things, but never will we forget our lives at Girard. i 25 }■
