Sponsors: Mr. Beck, Miss Broadfoot, Mr. Hudson, Mrs. Mitchell The class of T956 was an accidental dis- covery. Three years ago, in September of l953, the faculty of Har-Brack High School suddenly caught a glimpse of something strange and new. Just inside the front door, huddled together in mute embarrassment and anxiety, were the members of what has be- come the class of 1956. Gently, attempting to clispel the fears of the strangers, the faculty bade them enter and spent the next few weeks attempting to gain their confidence and friendship. During the first month at school, the sopho- mores suffered much inconvenience because of their unfamiliarity with the traffic rules of the new country. They were always taking wrong turns, being on the wrong floor, and arriving at their classes fifteen minutes late. But by Thanksgiving, they were often in the right place at the right time. A class meeting was called. Barbara Rum- mel was elected the first female class Presi- dent in the history of Har-Brack. To help her bear the responsibility of our first year, we Chose Robert Stimel, Vice President, Marlene Gamer, Secretary-Treasurer, Charlotte Hogg, Activities Board Representative. The advisers elected to aid us were Miss Broadfoot, Mrs. Kennedy, Mr. Glowacki, and Mr. Hudson. Our sophomore year was highlighted when our boys led us to an unbeaten football sea- son and Pitt Stadium for the W.P.I.A.L. Play- off. Our worthy opponent was Donora and as it happened the score was 0-O. The schools were declared co-champions. The S 8- S was the only social event of our sophomore year. The females enioyed it greatly, but the male sophomores found the dance torture. Our projects were selling Snow-Magic and stationery.

William Montgomery Barbara Rummel Carol Strobel President Vice President Secretary The following were elected officers for our junior year: William Montgomery, President, Barbara Rummel, Vice President, Emanuel Gregory, Treasurer, Carol Strobel, Secretary, and Walter Zahorchak, Activities Board Repre- sentative. Mrs. Mitchell was elected as spon- sor to replace Mrs. Kennedy. The junior year found classrooms more familiar and studying much easier. Our talents were now developing. During this year, we honored the Class of '55 with the Junior 8t Senior Prom on May 6. The projects of our junior year were selling Easter Candy and subscriptions to the nation's leading magazines. On Move-Up Day we proudly took the place of the graduating class, and looked forward to our approaching senior year. Once again we had a class meeting and elected as our senior class officers: William Montgomery, President, Barbara Rummel, Vice President, Louise Mattioli, Treasurer, Carol Strobel, Secretary, and Thomas Walkowiak, Activities Board Representative. The social events in our senior year were of marked brilliance. There were the Senior Prom, the J 81 S, sponsored by the Juniors, and the S 81 S, sponsored by the Sophomores. Our Senior Class Play showed talents quite beyond surmising, and the donors were re- ceived gracefully by all. On Move-Up Day we took our places on the stage as the gradu- ating class. The faculty and underclassmates helped and pampered us until the closing of Commencement exercises. We explorers now must continue to higher goals, each with a chosen vocation. However, all shall not be forgotten. Ten years from now we shall meet again for a Class Reunion.
