Reminiscing about high school days brought back our freshmen year and the thrill of being a part of a state champion- ship and a middle states evaluation. Mr. Shirley, our home room teacher, taught us self-control, a quality of much value in later years. As sophomores, under Miss Jones' guidance, we grew up noticably. The peak of the year was the Freshman-Sophomore party. As juniors, planning The Spring Cruiseu, which we considered a different prom , was our happiest time. The saddest was coming home from Allentown. Mr. Bowers' love of fun added to this year's memories. By this time, we began to feel the weight of responsibility and the necessity for cooperation. Now, we look back on our senior year as a time of much fun and hard work. Our boys were the eighteen year olds who were much disturbed by the future's threat. In spite of this, every senior took some responsibility. Yearbook, school clubs, and music groups were all guided by senior oflicers. Archie , Hans , Emil,', and Scotty , were the Big Four of the Knights. Ann Schnur was selected for county, district, and state music festivals. Margie Lentz made the all-state band. To record here the activities of all the seniors would be impossible. Memories of our senior pictures, prom night, class day, baccalaureate, and commencement will be in our minds for a life time. The discussions between Miss Hershey and Jerry, Bones' version of Temptation , Carl and Paul harmonizing in the halls, and Arlene's determination are a few things that will always ring bells for us. On the serious side, we will always remember to weigh our decisions as Miss Hershey has taught us to do. As we say goodbye to teachers, classmates, and friends, we know that we are ready to help make the world a better place in which to live.
