'ik R i, .,. ,Wi pg.. , ti A t fi r A 'fs N WILLIAM HARRY WOODRUFF Miss Dorothy H, Bubier Mr. Rodney J. Antalek W00dY Adviser AdViS91' unspoken word never does harm. Council 1,2,3,4g Projection quau 3,45 Photo Club 1. lm. . In the now distant year of 1954, the class of '57 began our four year journey through high school. To assist us on our long hike toward the goal of graduation, Mrs. Short came along as adviser. As our guides to help us, we elected Paul Nichols as president, Rich Beach as -vice-president, Mary McCarthy acted as secretary to keep us up to date, and Ronald Harrison took control of our purse. As money raising projects during our first year, we sold pencils, had baked food sales, and sponsored eighth period dances. As Sophomores we traveled under the advice of Mr. Moynihan while Rich Beach fulfilled his duties as president. Paul Nichols assisted as vice -president with Virginia Wilson as secretary and Norma Hanna as treasurer. On our list of important events for the year were our Club '57, baked food sales, and eighth period dances. As we traveled on, we stopped long enough to choose our class rings, our souvenirs which we greatly treasure. Traveling on, we moved up to our Junior year guided by Miss Bubier and Mr. Antalek with Paul Nichols in the lead as president. Beverly Banker assisted as vice -president and Barbara Parks acted as secretary while our purse was handed to Richard Harrison. Social functions performed were our Junior Prom, Oriental Fantasy , the annual stationery sale, and our Western show, all of which expanded our treasury and helped us on our way. At long last we arrived at our destination as Seniors. We stopped long enough to put Joe Cicero behind the wheel as president while Rich Beach stood by ready to take over as vice -president. Ioan Panipinto was elected sec- retary with Richard Whiteman hanging on to our purse. Miss Bubier and Mr. Antalek were our advisers. We began by sponsoring several skating parties and dinners. One of our unforgettable events was the Senior Play, A Case of Springtime directed by Mrs. Keith and produced by special arrangement with Dramatics Publishing Company of Chicago. Next on our list came our Christmas Ball, Candyland . We took adva 'itage of our magazine sale so as to be sure we had sufficient funds to undertake our senior uip to New York City. We reached the end of our Jour- ney as we walked up to receive our diplomas. As we bid farewell to our beloved school, our memories are happy ones and we all agree that it has been a wonderful four years! fncvamaaz Ioan Panipinto Secretary 19

BUSIEST Claire Smith and Joe Cicero That Joe and Claire should be awarded the ti- tle of busiest is of no surprise to anyone--especial- ly their fellow seniors. We all know of the wonder- ful job Joe has done as our class president this year. I-Ie's devoted many hours to our class pro- jects and does more than his share when it's time to work. Claire, too, is always busy--whether it is to cheer us up when we are feeling sorry for our- selves or to help us when we need it. We know we can always depend on Claire. BEST DANCERS Charlotte Reed and Bill Kurtz Charlotte and Bill were fotmd dancing down the center of the gym floor on December 28th amidst the striped canes and lollipops of Candyland, and who should take the throne but little Charley. Actually, they would have been much more at ease if they had been jitterbugging to Seventeen. HAPPIEST Mary Lynn and Norma Hanna Mary and Norma are well deserving of the title of happiest. Their amiable personalities are known by everyone. Mary always has a sunny greeting for everyone. Norma's cheerful disposition easily dis- proves the tale of the redhead's temper. MOST MUSICAL Bardee Smith and Richmond Beach Bardee and Rich are really tops in their class along the music line. Bardee not only is an out- standing member of chorus and plays the bells in band, but also plays piano and is organist in her church. In her junior year she was chosen Best Girl Musician of Livingston County. Rich also is a member of chorus and band. He represented LCS at both All-County and All-State. We'll all re- member him for Tuti Fruiti in the 1956 Musi- cal Review. While fourth periods finds him play- ing the Sousaphone, he also can play trumpet and you should hear him let go on those drums!
