President SENIOR MEMORIES How well we renieiiiber the day we entered Roosevelt High School as a Freshman four years ago — it seems but yesterday. We were eagerly anticipating the cx|»eriences that awaited us. Inn we were also slightly awed and very confused. Fortunately, we had very competent leadership during our Freshman year with Bob Laskowski. president. Andy Zipko, vice president, and Lynn kragon. secretary. As the months advanced, our Sophomore year rolled by. We became better acquainted with our teachers, made new friends, joined clubs, and became a part of our school. Since many of us were eager beavers, our class officers, Terry Balka. president. Jerry Hughes, vice president and Carol Anderson, secretary, were faced with a large task. As we left our Sophomore year and were no longer considered underclassmen, we sighed with relief at being Juniors. Ferry Balka. president, Sandy Pilch, vice president, and Pat Kinkade, secretary, were our efficient class officers for our Junior year. The highlight of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom. We will always retain the memory of the happy hours that we s| ent deco- rating in accordance with the theme. “Almost Paradise.” As autumn set in. we were at last high and mighty seniors. Everyone was busy doing his part as the Homecoming Parade drew near. Pat kinkade was crowned Homecoming Queen and the Homecoming dance was given in her honor. The R.H.S. fighting spirit was in evidence as we cheered our team on to a Brown Derby victory over Washington. Bob Laskowski and Adrienne Bi ik were crowned king and Queen at the Brown Derby dance that followed the game. One »f the most exciting events of our Senior year was our football team’s State Championship vic- tory over South Bend Central. The following night, we celebrated our victory by dancing to Len Setmaycr’s band at the Turnabout. The winter scene of drifting snow brought loud Rough Rider basketball cheers. Our cheers were loud once again for our team in the Sec- tional Tournament, but then faded as we lost in the last game of the Tournament. The Winter Formal with its theme “Crystal Ball” was a beautiful sight as everyone dressed up in his best. With the departure of mid-year graduates, the semester thus ended. With strong March winds and April showers of mystic spring, graduation day was approaching. Strains of music and preparations for acts were all part of the Talent Show in which many of us participated. We received our senior pictures. Our last school days were very busy with clubs giving farewell banquets and seniors dressed in stunning outfits for Dress-Up Day. The Beautiful setting of “Night in Hawaii” the theme of the Prom, shall linger forever in memories of our last school dance. The burning light of senior mem- ories soon began to dim as Class N ight, the Senior Picnic, and Baccalaureate all came to an end. As we reached for our diplomas, tears filled our eyes. We were saddened not only by leaving school, but also by leaving the friendships we had made during our wonderful school days. Sincere thanks to each and everyone of you. leat hers and friends, for your guidance and in- spiration; your friendship, sympathy and under- standing. Our hearts are filled with a gratitude which is dilficuit to frame in words. Page Eighteen
