 Deal TJia’ixj: When I begin to think about the Underclassmen begin to feel a little blue. Gee, but HI miss ail my friends and the hustle and bustle of school life. The Seniors next year will have all our fun, excitement and worries, but I know they'll land on top. The Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen will be setting Mercer Hi. on fire, too, probably. They all certainly have a lot to look forward to. It hardly seems possible that we were once Freshmen and looked forward to o u r Senior year just like the Freshmen are now. Life certainly passes quickly as they will all find out.

fluMOl Cl ass Histolij FRESHMAN Wc had often heard about high school but we didn’t really think much about it until we tried buffing the barriers it presented. All but a few of us got over the first great barrier—our first report card in high school. Our hardest task was choosing officers that were capable of carrying out the job but we did it. We elected: Dome Davis .....................................President Paul Zahniser..............................Vice President Jean King ......................................Secretary Julia O’Mahoney ................................Treasurer This year Thanksgiving was moved up a week which made it seem rather early. But we came back with renewed energy to carry us along until Christmas. When our Christmas vacation was barely over the Seniors had a “Leap Dance.” We were all excited over giving our first class party. It was a “Freshman Swing Session” and it had every one bowled over. Our last day was spent at Conncaut Lake with our first year of high school behind us. . SOPHOMORE With more confidence than last year we resumed the eternal grind of high school. Now that we know better the people in our class it isn't so hard to choose our officers. We elected Dorrie Davis ....................................President Mary Strosser...............................Vice President Wayne Miller ....................................Secretary Jim Mongicllo ...................................Treasurer On November eighth, breaking the monotony, every girl caught a man for the Sadie Hawkins Dance. Christmas vacation came and went much faster this year than it did last year. In April we had a musical class party “Sophomore Hop which didn’t bring much money but it did bring fun to all. We spent the last day at Conncaut Lake. Some fun! JUNIORS We started back to school looking forward to our Junior year with great hope ambition. The officers this year have an exceedingly hard job to do if it is done well, elected Rip Redic............................................President Paul Zahniser...................................Vice President Anna Crill ..........................................Secretary Jack Wilson .........................................Treasurer and We Everyone worked hard to get ready for Christmas and our “St. Nick’s Jam Session” so for further details look up the Party Section. Thrill of thrills! Our rings came and arc they super-super-duper! Now wc are looking forward to our play and prom. (Most of us have had dates for this great event since last month). M '.RY C.
