Standing: P. Trztdel. Seateds E. Messore, R. Fanning, J. Flint. XVith the brightest of optimism and over- whelming enthusiasm our class of 55,' began their senior year. their first official act being the election of Bob Fanning to head the class through what has proved to be a busy and very successful year. Our lirst big project as Z1 class was to surmount the difnculties of selling refreshments at football games from the stand at Hartwood Park, which was only partly completed and was still in the process of being worked on. Thus. each Friday night of a home game we had to lug huge milk cans of coffee from the school to the stand and keep it warm with electric burners, besides carry- ing the rest of our supplies out, cleaning up and carting everything back after the Game, tired and harried. 6 A few Saturdays during this period, wet. cold feet and hands were suffered during car- '7Ae 61644 of 7955 washes, which proved to be a huge linancial suc- cess. Our next big event after this was the Spaghetti Supper. Following a slow start in the sale of tickets, the lfids really Hgot on the ball and Finally were told if they sold any more we could never feed them all. This year we carried sup- pers to the Le Roy Machine as well as the 'lell-O. The annual Christmas tree was raised and decorated by the senior boys one sub-zero wind- swept day in December, and a carol fest, sponsor- ed by the seniors, was held the night before vaca- tion. The Senior Play, '4The Youngest , a light comedy, was held on March 18 and l9 and the seniors were gratihed by audiences much larger than those of the past several years. Our Senior Ball on May 6 with the theme, Castle of Dreams proved to be extremely en- tertaining with music by Carl Dengler's Orchestra and vocalist. The decorations were truly lovely: the punch was good, too! On May 24 we seniors ventured to Rochester to see Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. We ended our year, a tride sadly and yet gladly with the always delicious Tountas Dinner, our long voyage to Crystal Beach, a junior-sponsored dance given for seniors, a successful and nostalgic Class Night, and on Monday, Alune 27, the 64th Commencement held in l.e Roy High School. Vyle bid you a fond farewell and let all who read, mark that this was a very line year indeed! l It was at the refreshment stand that the Seniors learned the value of cooperation and hard work. Senior clebators have an opportunity to show their talents at the Junior Town Meeting, .sponsored by Radio Station WHEC.

7fze At last our Oatkan Knight reached his goal . . his Senior year. He knows he must work hard to make it all he has dreamed it would be. Since one aim of the class was to make money, he did his share. At the supper, he cheerfully served piping hot dishes of spaghetti. The Knight really didn't mind the wet feet and clothes at the car wash. The night of the senior play he was backstage, doing all sorts of odds and ends. He knows that cooperation and hard work are the secret for sure success.
