We elected Tom Deyle, president, Bob Heneka, vice-president, Marilyn Nile, secretaryjand Nancy Morris, treasurer to lead us through this uncertain year. Mrs. Ann DeReus and Mr. James Fahy became our class advisors. Representing our sophomore class in Senior High Student Council were Mary Pat Kerr, who was elected secretary, Pat Hart, Barb Scanlon, Susie Wood, Vince Bonvino, Sam Bottini, Bea Nelson, Linda Kennell, Jamet Cormia, Vicki Rice, and Cheryl jones. Our first attempt at fund raising was our dance, Swing and Sway with the Sophs, which cannot be classified as a success.
