1957 - THE RISE TO A SUMMIT SLOPES Now we were on the way: we no longer were the lowest. IIow nice it felt to see the new freshmen wandering around with that dazed look. For the first time we held our class elections. Our President was Glenn Hawkes; Vice-president, Dana Kellen- berger; Secretaries, Phyllis DiVincenzo and Darla Stevens; and Treasurer, Denise Harmony. BASE CAMP On a day in early September 1953, our moun- tain climbing expedition formed, consisting of climbers from the Richmond School and the Howe- Manning of Middleton. As we were assigned our tents, we wondered what it would be like: the four- stage climb to the top. Our first representatives to the student council were chosen; we placed Priscilla Dechenes and Richard Ellery in the guiding positions. Suddenly we encountered our first steep slopes: midyears! However, we “burned the midnight oil” (although in some cases it didn’t make a particle of difference) and passed. Spring came soon and we could see the long slope of the Sophomore year ahead. Finals, vacation. FRONT ROW: Treasurer Denise Harmony, President Glenn Hawkes. BACK ROW: Secretaries Phyllis DiVincenzo and Darla Stevens. MISSING: Vice-President Dana Kellen- hurger, Advisor Mr. Daniel Hogan. The Problem Solvers — Mr. Michopoulos, Mr. Dunn The Sophomore Hop, our first social event, was a great success foretelling the future of our dances. The grand march, played by an outstanding baud and led by President Hawkes with his date, was a whirl of color and beauty in a hall spangled with the hues of autumn. In the sporting events, Raymond Desclos was our first to receive a football letter. This was the first year for many of us that we met Ceasar, in both his Latin and ambitious forms. Finals came soon, followed by a brief rest. Then we began preparations for the next to last stretch of our journey.
