The business staff of the IHS MIRROR under the supervision of Miss Shirley Cas- ler, sold, in one week, more than the ex- pected number of 350 subscriptions. In addition to selling advertising, the idea of patrons had enabled other interested cit- izens of Ilion to co-operate with the ac- tivities of the school. U31 '59 STAFF The interesting copy you read in the MIRROR was written by a capable Lit- erary Staff and typed by competent typists chosen by the editors. Less formality, more pictures iincluding more school activity picturesl, and fewer words of copy motivated the entire staff. The Staff tried to make the book more interesting to look at and to read, and, as a result, the copy and pictures you see in this book are different and better than they ever have been before. Typing was done by shorthand class with Mrs. Alice Bamford's aid, and ar- tists were assisted by Miss Veronica Don- nelly. Standing, Left to Right: E. Smith, H. Crouch, S Disotelle, B. Cashman, B.

SEN!-lTE AND HU UH SUIIIETY This year, under the capable leadership of President Dick Coupe, the Senate was revived in- to a very active organization. Major accomplishments included the introduc- ing of a new traffic system in the halls and the revision of the Constitution.

:iE: '4, EL S5 HISTUHY Confusion reigned! As freshman we came from Annunciation, East Frankfort, and High School, to form the class of 1953. Where should I go? How do I get there? Where's the office? Eventually we became acquainted with the school, the teachers, and each other. Often a student was startled to see a group of girls leap high in the air. The onlooker learned that these were cheerleaders There were seven- Barbara Carlock, Doreen Pelletier, Frances Capes, Gwen Johnson, Marilyn Thompson, Marjorie Thompson, and Priss Bumham. In the class games the team, Warren Reynolds, Dick Coupe, Bill Murphy, Dale Connors, Donn Ahern, Bob Deming, Bob Bergin, Mike Palmer, Charlie Thibault, and Bob Meade, lost to the Sophs 36-17. Members of the Junior National Honor Society, Charles Wood, Doreen Pelletier, .lane Ann Haugh- ton, Joanby McKillop, Mary Lou Meiser, Nancy Donahue, Pat Mason, Priss Burnham, Richard Hall, Richard Klippel, Rita Stagg, Ronald Jones, Shirley Ryden, ,lohn Stephenson, and Kenneth Humphrey, were selected on basis of leadership, scholarship. and character. At our Freshman Frolic, boys played cards, while the girls tried to persuade them to dance. We won't forget Gary O'Connell,s good spirit when he volunteered for the clean-up committee. Jim Wheat earned a varsity letter in track. We closed our first year of high school with a picnic. Excitement filled the air as we began our Soph- omore year by electing Sue Power, president, Bob Bergin, vice-president, Jane Ann Haughton, sec- retary, and Bob Meade, treasurer. A Soph Dance was held in the fall. We were busy after home basketball games checking coats and seeing that everyone got the right hat. 'usa Q-Q-' w L fF, iuahlrf 5.2 u 'll' I ,,,n 0 t up,,' A 1.
