mf' A TOUCH of eye shadow by R. Cordaro completes J. Reed's preparations for the pag- Calllf. Almost Uppercl assmen With the New Yearis resolutions and semes- ter exams, sophomores buckled down to a month of hard study in an attempt to evade the tradi- tional usophomore slump. This led quickly into the new semester and the Mercyhurst Winter Weekend. Enthusiastic as usual, the class success- fully sponsored the Sophonade, the highlight of the weekend. Studies, meetings, dances, pinochle, twisting, knitting, term papers-all these crowded the busy sophomore schedule until, before anyone realized it, the second year of college life was almost at an end. Still there was graduation and the traditional sophomore farewell to their Big Sisters, Lantern Night. Misty-eyed, the sophs wished their senior sisters happiness and success as they left Mercy- hurst and college life. Looking back over the past year, each sophomore found it hard to believe that next year she, no longer orphaned, would be a Big Sister and an upperclassman. SOPHOMORES CLAP and move in rhythm to the tune of Colette while Sister M. Francesca looks on.

Juniors In unity there is strength is the motto which the Class of ,63, led by president, Bonnie Mc- Gough, has realized. Their cooperation was im- mediately evident when they assumed the biggest and most rewarding responsibilities of the junior class-being Big Sisters to the freshmen. Cheery smiles over piles of luggage escorted frosh and parents to rooms. Then, a summer decor on the patio for a picnic lunch, followed by a gay dis- play of class talent and a song-fest, willing hands during the Faculty-Freshmen Tea, a special mixer with Gannon, remembrances in the form of holy cards at Investiture, candy baskets at Halloween, a jam-session in November, and the traditional Christmas party hlled the busy first semester with warm memories for members of both classes. 98 Within the class, cooperation also led to suc- cess. For the second consecutive year, hard work for the NFCCS campaign resulted in the crown- ing of the junior candidate, Anne Lecker, as queen of the annual Harvest Moon Ball. On All Saints Day, the juniors sponsored an outing to the zoo for the orphans, followed by a feast of punch, gingerbread, and cookies. With the approach of Christmas, winged candy bars suddenly appeared initiating once again the angel-cherub tradition. The class, lifting their voices to sing the tradition- al Christmas carols, proceeded to the chapel for the blessing of class rings at midnight Benedic- tion. Second semester activities provided a square dance, snow parties, and the junior prom, Cy- press Gardens?
