OUR HOME ROOM It really is a homeroom, although at times it is referred to by Mr. Sybeldon as a cage. Those pupils who 'occasionally' arrive tardy, are spoken of as miss- ing the cage . . . as would happen if they worked in the mine. This part of the Senior Class undoubtedly sets Mr. Sybeldon's mood for the entire day. lf he is required to be witty in the homeroom, you can be sure the remainder of his classes for the day are going to cringe under his bright wit- icisms. lf he becomes provoked during the 8:15 period, you can bet your boots some innocent freshman or sophomore will be bounced out of class for practically no reason at all. lt seems that after six months, Eleanor Hinch would be tired of hearing, And where were you until this time?' Her feeble excuse, 'My bus was late' never did seem to hold any water. You'd think, too, that after hearing it so much, Ronald Weber and Tony Gentile would Wake up five minutes earlier' so they could get to school on time. One can't forget to mention those who are always looking for an excuse to leave the room. Like Barbara Calvi. You'd think 8:30 was the only time of the day she could return her library book. And Darlene Anderson. Miss Weiser iust never seemed to see enough of her! Then came the day when we all were branded as 'two and a half per- centersl' We were sure to be looked upon with a scowl and greeted with a Why-5 if we were absent as much as half a day. Last, but not least, we can't forget our homeroom's guidance periods. Outwardly we groaned at the thought of guidance, but inwardly, we looked for- ward to the laughs that were guaranteed by Mr. Sybeldon. No other homeroom could have laughed harder than we did at Mr. Sybeldon's antics of how a gum- chewer looks to others. Of course, one can't laugh too hard, too often, other- wise he would become the recipient ofa remark like the following: Brio, l think you'd laugh at your own funerall' ln spite of all our good times, a remarkable amount of work was done during our homeroom period. QA remarkably small amount, that isli So, as we say goodbye to H.H.S., we can't forget to bid a special fare- well to Our Homeroom! - Rose Lee - PEP SESSIONS Pep Sessions are iust as important to the high school, as that first im- portant game that's going to be played. They seem to fill the student with a little pep and anticipation for winning. Many of our pep sessions were outstanding this year. l'm sure none of us have forgotten the hilarious iob done by the teachers for our game with lron- wood. Mr. Haglund giving us the shirt off his back, the nimble fingers of Mr. Orsoni at the accordian, and Verg's' wrestling match, kept the High School in continual bursts of laughter. Also, we would like to express our appreciation to Mr. Asperheim and the band for their fine job in providing music for all our pep sessions, and to the the cheerleaders for all the hard work put forth in leading us in cheering for our team. All this and much more contributed to the success of our pep sessions.

4th PERIOD PHYSICS CLASS As we have so often been told by our able teacher, Mr. Forte - ours is the 'dumbest' class he has the pleasure of having all day. We never have our work done, we never recite, and we never have had the privilege ot 'stumping' our instructor. But 'physics' wouldn't be physics, if, Buniovac didn't walk in class five minutes late, Vernetti wasn't asked to explain a complicated part of a car, Bria wasn't told to grow up and of course, the 6th period class wasn't bragged about so! But 'oh' how we love those forty-five minute lectures given usually every week by Mr. Forte on 'How tough life was when he was a kidl' But then, come to think of it, what else would he talk about, we don't know Boyle's Law from a hole in the ground. And then there are the days Mr. Forte will get real mean and say, 'What do ya mean? in reply to our smart answer, Juice is iust electricity, of coursel' But still when the end of the six-weeks rolls around, Mr. Forte still re- mains our favorite teacher. Why? Because he gave us a 'C' instead of a D.' - Kathi Allice - WOULDN'T IT BE FUNNY IF - Don Forte's Cardinals dropped out of baseball? Tony Gentile went steady? Allice, Anderson, and Autio weren't in school activities? Jim Van Hoot could play a whole season? Anton Kutz shaved every day? Barbara Calvi didn't blush? Rosalie Grandelis didn't laugh at Mr. Hotfman's iokes? Marty Friola walked up town? Jerome Noskoviak missed a night at Murphy's? Jim Reed took Morzenti's place on the team? Conley Swee lost some weight? Eleanor Hinch got a crew-cut? Charles Heiden got a D ? Leon Baron bleached his hair? Melvin Koski di dn't get carried away at Senior class meetings? Dan Michela dropped dead while delivering flowers to a funeral home? Madge Cortichiato wasn't with Carl? Don Mrdienovich stopped reading Argosy? Rochelle Helinski came out at night? Warren Gilbertson stopped being the town's clown?
