Groups of seniors evaluate themes. As seniors of Ligonier Valley High School, it is our sad but proud duty to look back at our previous years and to review all the wonderful times we have had in high school. We came from the School on the Hill as sophomores and started the hectic task of ad- justing to our new courses and teachers. We were very lucky in that the process of initia- tion was somewhat mild compared to that of the past. Each year we looked forward to electing officers and our projects which helped us earn money for our Washington trip. Among these projects were the junior and senior class plays, the Sadie Hawkins Dance, the Prom and our magazine campaign. All of these took a great deal of work but they were worth every bit of it. We shall always remember Class of I962 President .... . . JamesBoyd Vice President . . . . Bob Lynn Secretary .... . . Sandy Luther Treasurer . . . . . . . . . Donna Thorn Class Advisors . . Mrs. Jack,Mrs. Urch, Mr. Urch, Mr. Mathews, Miss Martin, Mr. Seiling, Mr. Mellott the assemblies and of course the football and basketball games which helped add variety to school life. We must not forget that school wasn't all pleasure and no work. There was plenty of work in most subjects and it brought about a challenge to us to do this work the best we knew how, under the guidance of sympathetic and wise instructors. Now as seniors we look back and wonder where the past years have gone. We must now face the outside world and answer the ques- tions of What will it be like? and How will I do in the future? But whatever the answers to these questions will be we can truly say that our school has given us the opportunities to succeed, if we only accept the challenge of a highly competitive world. Bob, Sandy, Donna, and Jim discuss plans for the Christmas dance.
