Our first project was a magazine campaign and later we sold school pins. Throughout the year we sponsored Hot Dog Day'1, which was held every Thurs- day at both schools. Again our dramatic talent was put to use ‘when we presented our Senior Play, We 'Dude' It . Our final large project was a candy sale at Christmas time, which proved to be very successful. A number of Seniors gained distinction during the year and the following were on the honor roll: Alice Riccadonna, Patricia Newell, Nellie Bundy, and Aileen Nelson. Many others received recognition in basketball, music, etc. that will long be remembered. On May 14, 15, and 16 we went on our Washington Trip, a never to be for- gotten event. Soon after we returned we were honored by the Junior Class at a wonderful banquet. On May 27 our Class Night was held in the Gym and then came June 1, the most memorable day of our lives thus far. We proudly marched up the aisle to receive our diplomas. It gave us a feeling of satisfaction and achievement mingled with one of regret to leave the school where we had spent so many happy hour 8. But wait! It isn't over yet. On June 5 we were hosts to the High School at the annual picnic and not long after we were honored guests at the annual Alumni Banquet. We take the opportunity now to say thank you to everyone who has helped us reach our goal and also that we hope we will always be remembered by the faculty and the people of the town as the wonderful class of 1958.
