SENIOR HOME ROCM Both a spirit of co-cperation and a feel- ing of friendly rivalry have existed among the four senior home rooms. Under the guid- ance of Miss Marjorie Blackstone, Miss Jean Boggs, Miss Mary Gibson, and Mr. Michael Zukovich the seniors supported the sale of ac- tivity tickets led by Rcn Buschek, participated in athletics, ioinecl musical, literary, and so- cial organizations, and generally maintained their reputation of enthusiastic service. Don Wingard, class president, was assisted by sec- retary Joan Benner in appointing committees to plan the Prom and Class Day. Head maior- ette Sally Kyler and head cheerleader Ellen Walsh inspired athletes Glenn Beckert, Larry Meals, Rege Welsh and others to greater ef- forts. Serving as secretary of Biology Club was Gerry Redman, while Carol Pittner acted as treasurer. In the music department, Bonnie Barrick ably accompanied the orchestra, and Jim McElroy organized a Red Cross program forthe Veterans' Hospital in which several sen- iors participated. All in all, both the leaders and followers in the class have lived up to Perry's motto, Knowledge for service.

IVE a l l ' No matter what the new world will require of us in the way of scientific knowledge and scholastic training, we know that we, as Ameri- cans, shall need more than ever to train to take our places as responsible citizens in a democ- racy. The home room is one of the places in school where we learn to practice democ- racy and to discover the true meaning of citizen- ship and responsibility. The members of each home room elect capable officers to represent them in Student Council. In the regular home room meetings held on alternate Tuesdays, Coun- cil representatives report to their home rooms the proceedings of Student Councilf at that time stu- dents have the opportunity to express their opin- ions and to be heard with courtesy and respect. ln the following fifteen pages all classes from seniors to seventh grade are shown in their home room groups as they were organized at the beginning of the 1957-58 school year. 51.53 fx 'SF-H the home room is a small community 27
