Senior Class History Well, by God, we made it. There were quite a. few who said we wouldn't, but we ARE going to graduate. Yes, Virginia, there IS a class of '52. In our freshman year, it was Mr. Teeter who Hrst declared, after seeing us destroy algebra, that we would NEVER make it. Our soph world history teacher, Miss Schwartz, once exclaimed dismally, 'iThe only sweethearts who will pass are you four in the back row!'3 Somehow, though, we made it. Mrs. l'Vright would use up numerous class periods telling us why we would never pass the English regents, but we all struggled through. Mr. Grygiel used to shudder convulsively over his Problems class, yet contrary to his predictions, we made it. Looking back over those four wonderful years, we know in our hearts that we'll never forget them. For the present, though, we'll try. Our freshman year proved to be a good starting point. CWe had to start somewherel. We elected Dana Nelson, Karen Holt, Stan Kozenewski, Jo- anne Tuttle, and Elaine Volo as homeroom repre- sentatives to the Junior High Senate, and Jack Brewer served as its President. Our only activity was class games in which we defeated the sophomores. Cheerleading for the freshman squad were: Mary Alice Seymour, Joanne Tuttle, Judy Gregory, Dana Nelson, Elaine Volo, Judy Cormia, Regina Stef- anishyn, Peggy McClave, and Roseanne DeJohn. After the game, we all invaded the home of Jill Urtz. A few unwelcome visitors from the sophomore class also attended. At the start of our sophomore year, two fine teachers fwho obviously were not familiar with our reputationl became our advisors - Miss Irene Pogonowski and Mr. John Monohan. fOh well, to err is only humanl. On the second rung of the ladder, we chose Stan Kozenewski as our president. Ray WVardle was our vice-president and Peggy Mc- Clave and Elaine Volo were elected secretary and treasurer respectively. Our financial project for this year was the coat check for basketball games and wrestling matches. Of course we'll never forget the night we lost all the tags and everyone had to get his own coat! Besides the coat check that year, we had a dance featuring '6The Plaidsi' which made our year a financial success. fWe'll always remem- ber it because it was our last financially successful yearj. It was in our sophomore year, also, that Dennis Dodge first coined the phrase muh which is now a time worn expression used by most everyone. Denny first applied it one day in world history class fMr. Panaritesj stating that Hiroshima was bombed in 194 muh. Mike McCormack took it from there,
