Presidcin SENIOR MEMORIES Wide eyed and lull ol ideas we start our Freshmen year at Roosevelt High School. Ex- tremely eagei to l ecome a part of this school, we attend all the football and basketball games. I he I'umalxnit Dance comes in November and although not too many of us attend, our class is represented. The same thing occurs at the Winter Formal this year. In April, we have our dass party. It is a big night for us, and we are proud of ourselves because it is a big success. We choose Christine Paganis as our queen and Ray Nowak as our king. And so ends our Fresh- men year at R. H. S. Our Sophomore sear is lull of fun and ex ciiement, and many of us joined clubs this sear. Our class party is the Sophomore Sock Hop. We have clothes lines with socks hanging all over the place. Our queen is Florence Ralowski and our king is Bill Ferris. Our |unior year is a busy one. Our football team is undefeated and becomes State Champ- ions. We become members of the Y-Teen («in- itiet. Booster Committee. Purple and White Club. etc. Near the end of the year we elect our” officers lor the various clubs. The Junior-Senior Prom is the highlight of the year. Our theme is Carousel”, and the gym is decorated like a cir- cus. We serve pink lemonade and cookies. After- wards there is an after-prom party at Lincoln- shire. Dancing to the strains of Good Night Sweetheart , we leave our Junior year. September 5 our Senior year begins. Although we are rather reluctant to begin studying again, we are looking forward to seeing all our friends. September 7 football season starts: and Irefore we know it. it is time for the homecoming game. Everyone docs his share in planning floats, mak- ing posters, decorating the gym for the dance and participating in the parade. Barbara Ro- manak is crowned queen by Joe Frailer. She looks simply stunning in the midst of her court consisting of Carol Mastey, Carol Procko, Pat Rossa. and Marlene Vukowich. Ik-fore long, it is time for the traditional Brown-Derby game against Washington High. Roosevelt win- ning. At the dance following the game. Carol Mastey and Rich Olah are crowned queen and king. Dianne Applegate, Don Carr, Mona Sudin- ski. and Mike Bolin make up their court. In October we start taking our Senior pictures. All ol us are dying of curiosity to sec our proofs. Among all this excitement, the girls suddenly lx-come aware that the annual girl-bid-boy dance. The Turnabout, is only a few weeks away and thc begin to scan lor dates. The dance is on November Hi. The theme is City of Angels. We have a Hi Fi Assembly. Bob Holland serves as Master of Ceremonies. He soon an- nounces that Elvis Presley will apj ear and. when lie comes out. we see that it is none other than |olui Bi ik. A trio composed of Barbara Roman ak. Sharon Snyder, and Marlene Struss sing Tonight You Belong to Me.” It is taken on tajx and replayed with Tony Bonaventura, Rich Olah, and Mike Bolin pantomining. The assem- bly is ended with a few selections by Len Set- utaycr and his combo band known as the Hi Fi's. The annual Winter Formal takes place on January 21 with the theme “Rhapsody in Blue. All the girls look ravishing in their new. ruffled formats. The array of colors as seen by the audi- ence at the Grand March is breath taking. Thus ends the first semester and we say goodbye to the mid-year graduates. With the coming of Spring, we realize that graduation day is almost here. The various clubs and organizations around school are giving fare- well banquets for us. The |unior-Senior Prom, held on May 21 with the theme Almost Para- dise”, brings to an end our activities for the year. ( lass Night and Baccalaureate services lead to graduation day on June 4. And so ends a happy phase of our lives that we shall never forget. Page Nineteen
