Seniors Although they cannot be relived, our four years of high school can be remem- bered, and our fulfilled hopes and plans can become a joyful reminiscence. At the class organizational meeting, the Freshman Class adviser, Mr. Henry Stoudt, supervised the election of our first class officers. Officers for the freshman year were Mike Simpson, president; David Carter, vice-president; Glenda Peachey, secretary; Jacque Shuck, treasurer; and Jim Futrell, historian. The f irst year in high school had made changes in us all, and we returned to school in the fall of 1964, happy to be no longer looked down on as freshmen. Class officers during our sophomore year were David Carter, president; Bob Wright, vice-presi- dent; Darla Scott, treasurer; Jacque Shuck, secretary; and Jim Futrell, historian. Mr. Thomas Hess was our class adviser. Our class play. Drop Dead, was a smashing success and became our most outstanding project during the 1964-65 school year. On August 31, 1965, we entered our homerooms as upperclassmen in the newly- accredited Huntingdon Area High School. Retaining our sophomore class offi- cers for another year, we busily began earning money for the prom and graduation. One of our first major projects was a massive hoagie sale. Our capable junior class adviser, Mr. Evan Horton, helped to lighten our financial worries by securing the aid of the freshman and sophomore classes in other sales projects. Talented members of the class thrilled audiences with our dramatic presentation, Sorry , Wrong Number , in the spring of 1966. We closed our junior year by presenting a beautiful and spectacular prom. Le Bal Enchante ' holds many pleasant memories for all. The year for which we had worked and waited so long began on August 31, 1966. As seniors we selected these class officers for this most important year: president, Mike Simpson; vice-president, Ed Strickler; secretary, Darl a Sc ot t; and treasurer, Harvey Wason. Jim Futrell remained in office to record the final chapter of the class history. Our class adviser, Mrs. Beverly McEwen, helped our advisory board to select our class colors and flower and to compose our class motto. Our senior class play. Witness for the Prosecution , was presented early in 1967. Our last months as seniors passed quickly. Move-up Day tore at ourties withH.A.H.S.; Baccalaureate and Commencement nearly completed the severance. We have taken with us memories of many happy and edu- cational experiences. Class Colors: Ivory and Navy Blue Class Flower: White Chrysanthemums Class Motto: The future beckons; we answer its call.
