OF 1963 What a strange feeling it is for the freshmen when they enter our school in September. They are, at first, shy and awkward, but gradually, through trial and error, they become accustomed to our daily routine. For a few, there is the thrill of being put on the cheerleading or twirling squads, or of playing in the band and orchestra. For others, club memberships, after school sports and dances provide social enjoyment, as well as an opportunity for making new friends and really getting into the swing of high school life. All in all, freshmen will agree that, despite the few months of uncertainty, their first year at Amboy High will be forever cherished. FIRE PREVENTION APPARATUS is demonstrated by fireman Frank Kenny and assistant to Karen Yakimovicz, George Graverson, and Gary Kubinak. NOT ONE SECOND WASTED! Bonnie Lucas wants to make sure she gets ready on time for the annual band concert. UNSUSPECTING FROSH, Carla Reinert and Melvin Dyskoski don't realize that they have been tricked into buying a year's supply of elevator tickets. 97

OF 1962 PART TIME HELP in the Public Library provides an excellent job for Edward Liston and a chance to earn the extra money he needs for school expenses. HAND IT OVERI is Mr. Geraghty's command to Daniel DeLisi and Thomas Kmiotek who prefer Peanuts to algebra. No longer the shy new-comers to our school, sophomores emerge well oriented to PAHS activities. With boundless spirit and energy, they cheer our teams to victory, and try the patience of the faculty and upperclassmen with their mischievous antics. Because they have no class government of their own, sophomores willingly serve as representatives on the Student Council and as officers in various clubs. Using the experience gained in these organizations, the class of 1962 can look forward to successful years as upperclassmen. HALLOWEEN GREMLINS, Barry Klegman, Arlene Churko, and David Reap won't be smiling too much longer when they find out that Mr. Joe Scharer has caught them in the act of soaping his store windows. 99
