CLASS SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP! Ronald Pry's troubles have just begun if he expects to get through that door with four tubas. FRESH OFF THE PRESS. Times and Tribunes are distributed to our students every morning by Barbara Kagan and Carolyn Bucciante. Juniors, at last—and a colorful skyrocket of extra-curricular activities explodes before them. For the first time the students function as a group and, under the direction of their newly-elected officers and council, they sponsor the winter dance, Calendar Hop, the class play, and their ever-remembered junior prom. All, however, is not social, for much time is devoted to scholastic work. Juniors now begin to think seriously of college and their future. They realize the importance of selecting the proper vocation, and organize their schedules to fit this goal. On the whole, the year goes rushing by and, before long, the anxiously a-waited senior year is at hand. MAILING APPLICATIONS for college is the first step to success for Lyle Smith. 100

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

OF 1961 BUSY AGAIN! After trying to get through to his friend for over an hour, Leslie Byrd is giving up. ON A BICYCLE BUILT FOR TWO, Donna Dean and Dennis Hodovance blazed a trail through the ice and snow on many a cold winter's morning. PROUD JUNIORS, Frank Zanzalari, Elaine Morse, and Donald Sarisky admire their new class rings. SUMMER BOATING means winter working and scrubbing for Robert and Richard Ubersax. 101
