School News Among the important events in this school year were the Senior Scholarship Test, the Legion Essay Contest, the Daughters of the Amer- ican Revolution Citizenship Test, and the choosing of the girl to rep- resent Buckeye Girl's State. The Senior Scholarship Test was taken by ten seniors, four girls and six boys: Richard Primavera, Arthur Norberg, John Moronti, Pat Morocco, Tony Dastoli, George Kushma, Joanne Slaven, Angeline Pan- tana, Shirley Rotz, and Joanne Kalcic. Tony Dastoli and George Kush- ma received honorable mention. The title of the essay contest sponsored by the American Legion this year was The Need For a Strong American Democracy. Two juniors and two seniors were chosen for having the best essays in their class :-James Traveline and Joanne Slaven from the senior class, and Kenneth Haines and Joanne Coppola from the junior class. James Traveline also won honors in the county. Five senior girls, Joanne Kalcic, Angeline Pantana, Delores, Polis, Shirley Rotz, and Joanne Slaven, were chosen to take a Citizenship Test sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution. Joanne Slaven, who achieved the highest grade locally, represented Lowell- ville at a Daughters of the American Revolution Tea at Butler Art In- stitute on Tuesday, March 10, 1953. Good Citizenship Pins were awarded those girls present. This year Dorothy Mayberry was chosen by the American Legion Auxiliary Post 247 to be a representative at Buckeye Girl's State. Joanne Katcher was her alternate.

Assemblies Our assemblies were quite enjoyable. We had a Visual Education assembly at least once a week, at which Mr. Celbar and his boys showed us movies on some every interesting subjects. The band was al- ways there to help us along and accompany us at the Pep Rallies and Assemblies. The Student Council was very active this year by bringing in a few speakers. One of them was Detective Ted O'Conner who spoke to us about Juvenile crimes and cases. Two weeks after his engagement here at Lowellville High School he suffered a severe heart attack, so the Student Council in appreciation for his talk to us, sent him flowers. On October 6, Miss Angelillo had Grace Phelan, the world's famous speed typist and former world's amateur typing champion come here to give us a demonstration on the Do's and Don'ts of typing. During the Polio Drive the Student Council once again had a speaker, John Fanto, who gave a very heart-warming talk on Polio, which I am sure opened the eyes and ears of many of our students to the dreadful disease of Polio. In February, Mr. Haines's Public Speaking class put on a skit in which each student did a Monologue. This was enjoyed by the Student Body. Our assemblies consisted of the Turkey Raffle, the Christmas Pro- gram, the Easter Program and also our pep rallies in which the cheer- leaders did their best to make them as enjoyable as possible. Last, but not least, we had our annual Senior Day assembly which will be remembered for many years to come.
