.luniors' Progress Report SEATED - Frank Krizon, President: Robert Plewniak, Treasurer STANDING - Robert Gallant, Secre- tary, Eugene Rokosky, Vice President The Junior Class of i955 has done much to build McKinley into a better school. The class has contributed to many of the school activities, both athletic and non- athletic. Ronald Muscarella is Vice President of the Student Council. Bob Gallant has played three years of football and was co-captain of this year's football team as well as manager ofthe track team. Two Juniors are heads of the Civil Defense Training. They are Raymond Fitscher and Hank Michniak. In cross country we have two All- High runners: Irwin Frawley and Eugene Avino. John Fisher received Honorable Mention for his outstanding basketball ability. There have also been many Juniors participating in such activities as bowling, baseball, chess, the school newspaper and the yearbook staff. Such Juniors have all done their best to bring honor to McKinley. The fellows mentioned above are just a few who have done outstanding work while in their Junior year. There are many others who likewise deserve mention and approval. However, all of this could not have been achieved without the help and encouragement of the whole class. Sophomores' Inspection Record I -. . SEATED - Sam Cordarella, lst Vice President, Michael Murray, President STANDING - Anthony Nero, 2nd Vice President, Melvin Mikolaiczak, Secre- tarv The Sophomore Class of 1955 has really gotten off the ground level and has started up the scaffold that leads to the top of our trade education at McKinley. A bit older, more experienced and, we hope, smarter, we have tried to accomplish much for ourselves and for our school. Led bv our officers, we Sophomores have done our part in the activities at school. Joe Nolan, for example, has turned out to be an efficient manager of the cross country and the swimming teams. We were well repre- sented on the newly organized swimming team by Joe Gimbrone, Don Fratini, Bob Slocum and Charlie Strait. Mike Schnellinger came in among our first five men in cross country. Dave Florko and Don Galmbacher were ex- cellent players on the basketball team. ln general, where- ever there was something doing, the Sophomores were on hand to give a boast and a helping hand. When June comes we will have finished the first half of our stay at McKinley. We shall be one step closer to the graduation to which all of us look forward. 30
