Hess Hfkfaay The day was bright and sunny, yet it seemed a bit black when we entered the portals of H. ll. S. for the first time as Freshmen. The potential class of '55 huddled grimly like wet sheep, and eagerly followed anyone black enough to lead. The day held nothing but pitfalls and upper- classmeln traps, and often we'd barge in on a senior Physic's class, then back out, red-faced, to 'only a Freshman. Our boys were mighty busy the first few weeks. 'Dinky' Maki was es- pecially popular - with the upper-classmen. We elected jim Langlois President and Kay Mor- zenti Secretary-Treasurer. Our Freshmen Party started things off swell with Bev Savant and Fred Brunell reigning. It was in this year that jim, Tim, and Dick were destined to be our star athletes, and that Mr. Conners discovered we had some 'bubble heads' in our school. Of course, we were all innocent. Well, weren't we? Our second year of high rolled around and we advanced in knowledge UD. We elected Tim Trier President that year. Our Sophomore Party was quite a success. Carol McHugh and 'Bugs' Patritto reigned. The boys were no longer bashful and actually danced - the waltzes, of course. Dick Zell proved to be another Warfield as he sang Ole Man River. Our Biology field trips were fun and exciting. Our feet got soaked, our arms got scratched, but nevertheless we did have fun. It was also this year that Nancy Vecellio knocked jack Reardon over during a gym class. Some of our classmen went to Madison in forensics and music. As juniors we got a wee bit cockier. After all, we were upperclassmen! We elected 'Beppi' President, and, therefore, prom king. The theme for our prom was Star Dust. We all recall the fun and hard work putting up the decorations. Prom night we were surrounded with silhouettes and the modernistic mural with its colorful awnings fNorthern Lights, reallyj. Carol and Dave were crowned on a star crested throne with a blinking star-board in back. The orchestra was one of the best in years. We had a junior Party 'on the basis of a successful prom' which turned out to be quite a riot. Among other things we didn't have records. Remember the Pep Session our faculty put on with 'Chief' and his sax, Mr. La Core and his trumpet, Mr. De Rubeis and his 'squeeza-boxa, Mr. Asperheim and his trombone, and 'Verg with his 'La Rosa' vocal cords. Anyway, it proved fruitful because we beat Ironwood. It was also in this year that Mr. Haglund had the 'dumbest' Geometry class he's ever had. There were so many purely original solutions! This year we saw Nancy, Marianne, Suzy, Marnie, Bill, go to Madison in Forensics and return with 'A's. At long last our long-awaited year had arrived. We elected Rudy President, and he picked Bobbye for his Homecoming Queen. After six weeks of practice, we produced 'YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU, which turned out to be quite a success despite a few minor catastrophies. After that six of our Seniors entered a one-act play contest with 'Antic Spring, and wound up getting an 'A' in Madison. Then came forensics and music again, our Senior Picnic and Ban- quet. Now that Commencement is upon us we can look back on all the fun we had in dear old H. H. S., and cherish its memory in our hearts forever. White House Washington D. C. December 15, 1974 Dear Mr. Castagna: During the past month I have employed a committee in the task of finding out the present posi- tions of the members of the renowned Class of '55 of the Hurley High School, with the intention of sending them Christmas cards. I thought maybe you'd be interested in knowing their outcome. Among the information I received, I found a letter from Secretary of State, Dennis Maki. He in- formed me that on a recent trip to Egypt, on the S. S. Zanella, which is the largest ship of the Zanella, Ekmark, Zanella Company of New York, he and his valet, jim Murphy, were taking a little air on the deck when Father B. Patritto approached him. He was on his way to Italy to officiate the Bubble Gum Blowing contest to be held in Rome. Patritto told us that Bobbye Le- hocky was one of his strongest contenders. It seems she took up the hobby after an incident which occurred in her senior year in high school. On his way back Father Bernard plans to drop
