Lance After long hours of planning and gathering new ideas, the 1977 Corinthian was on its way to becoming one of the best yearbooks to be produced at Girard in recent years. This year’s staff was headed by Harry Lance and Tom Killeen as co-editors, and Mr. Devlin and Mr. Serluco as advisors. Throughout the year these people worked together along with several members of the senior class to produce a yearbook which everyone would enjoy. The three main objectives this year were to produce an interesting and enjoyable book, to make it different from past yearbooks, and to get the book out on time. Early in the year the staff decided on the theme, “Still Crazy After All These Years,” from Paul Simon’s popular song. Once the theme was determined, the layout was planned, pictures were taken, and stories were written. Everyone in the class did his share of making the 1977 Corinthian a different and interesting yearbook. The staff would like to thank everyone who made this successful yearbook possible. 14

The Society embraces high standards of scholarship, ser¬ vice, leadership, and character which are bound in a moral and ethical framework. By utilizing and exemplifying these four traits, NHS members help to counter the many negative forces in schools today. For well over half a century the National Honor Society has worked to bring the achieve¬ ments of outstanding high school students to the attention of their classmates, parents, and community. Chapters in more than 20,000 secondary schools continue to strive to give prac¬ tical meaning to the Society’s dedication to scholarship, service, leadership, and character. Left to Right: R.

GJJiA W The co-editors of the newspaper, Ray Beyerle and Ted Hicks, along with the Girard News staff, published five newspapers this year improving successively with each edition. The staff tried to publish a diversified paper including such things as artistic drawings, mazes, and various forms of literature. With the addition of a ten dollar prize for a monthly contest, student interest and involvement increased. There were also two special editions, one at Christmas and one at graduation; the former featured a one page salute to the Penn-Jersey Soccer Champions while the latter saluted the Class of ’77. The Girard News would like to thank Mr. William Stein, the advisor, and Mr. Rocco Serluco, the publisher, for their effort and time in putting out each edition. Standing: E. Newman, H. Lance, J.
