I{between the t)arh an il tie j£)aijfi{j it » Tho school doors swung open for tho class of '55 And now that we're Juniors tho school's come olivo. As Sophomoros last yoar, some said wo were shy.

superior performances. Back to the sports world—and we found that the boys on the J.V. basketball team really showed some first class athletic ability—Bob Lincoln, Bob Dell, Ed- die Lloyd, Allen Pollock, Frank Cifarelli, and Roddy Hull. Arlene Hooper made the upper class gals en- vious when she excelled in girls' basketball and ac- cordingly made the first team. However, we never could forget that second team prompted to victory by able sophomore girls. All through the year the Sophs continued to prove themselves. The Girls' Sports' Night had Sue Dorn and Diana Kammerlohr as Soph White Captains; Sue Gaita and Mary Lou Teta captained the Blues. Diana Donald, Joan Lingard, and Maura Nordquist were lucky enough to become majorettes. Remember the Lion and the Lamb, our Sopho- more dance? It was an outstanding night for us. If was wonderful! When spring came we were proud to have Aivars Krasts, John Richardson, and Bob Slusser out on the tennis courts. Report cards never came out without numerous sophs making the honor roll. Too, our class claimed half of Port High's famous accordion duo in the per- son of Frank Scobbo. Just to prove that we really did get along well with the upper classes ask Cathy Cosolito, Bobby John- son, Brenda Hartell, Judy W., Kitty Christy, Wendy Burroughs and . . . To make a long story short, our talent was dis- played in every phase of school life. Our classmates were found in band, orchestra, choir, Art Club, Stamp Club, Library Club, Focus, and P.A. Some of the fel- lows helped the stage crew, lighting crew and pro- jection staff. Under the kindly guidance of Mr. Macintosh, our faculty adviser, we have had a marvelous year. We hope the coming Sophomores will not only have as much fun (if that's possible) but will be equally suc- cessful in taking the soph out of sophomore and putting it into sophisticate.

On J.V., stopping attackers, were Walkor ond Word, While Mac, Sherry, Dina, and Madeleine scored. Crow cuts woro in stylo at this time of tho year. Did wo say in stylo? Well, tho roason is cloar That Fratry was haring its annual trials Far twelve lucky follows, who hod to walk milos. Tho next thing wo shono in woro inter-class plays. With Donald and Avoril best in all ways. Chris Drako, tho blond bombshell, actod with zest. As tho typical toener sho portrayed a real pest. Then there was the fall day the halls seemed to sing With tho Junior rofrain— Lot us chooso our class ring. Our girls woro roal pros on tho volloy ball courts. Wo showod Sophs and Soniors that wo woro real sports. Nancy Knobs was co manager; of that sport we were fond. With players like Pomeroy, Kohler, and Pond. Wo likod it so much, so goes tho school loro. That wo oven played sitting down on the floor Port has a marvelous basketball team. And for Dohm and John Ramsey tho Juniors did scroam. For Motzger, for Gilbort, for Palaski and Gus, For Schmorhorn ond Oswald tho crowd mado a fuss. Sparkod by Howard Blakesloo, Mussolwhito and Galo, How on oarth could Junior Varsity fail? To choor for this foam only oight girls woro noodod. For a berth on tho squad some thirty girls pleaded. Out of all those come Jacoby and Mori, Walthor, Schubart and Knoblock—that's part of tho story. With Macphorson and Drako, and Captain Peg Wurtz, They showod us their stuff, in blue jumpers, white shirts. Ono week ond our school was filled to tho brim, Tho best of musicians from Long Island moved in. Wo had many a student in tho Band of All-State. Wagner, Mason, and Lane woro just simply groat. And Cherry McClure captured very first chair. Out of all tho clarinetists assembled there. Then came girls' basketball and hit us right smockl But leave it to tho Juniors, wo still hod tho knack. With McBrian and James—How those girls could shootl And our guards were so tricky—they surely did suit. When one day wo asked why short skirts were in stylo, Adelaide ond Betty Lou replied with a smile, Celerity's tho club we are joining today. Short skirts are a joke that old members think gay.' Little Janie Laughlin, the star of Modern Dance, To tho haunting tune, Conflict, depicted romance. Other dancers were Boranollo, Allman, and Forah, Carlson, Clark, and Margaret Marra. Wo ended the year with a traditional feat The great Junior Prom, a dance hard to beat. For tho second year now, our time has been spent In sports, clubs, music, and school government. Wo will take over leadership in the school we hold dear And help make it better all through Senior year. So hail to the Sophomores, each lad and each loss. Farewell to tho Soniors—with regrets, lot them pass. 9 Nancy Walkor Peggy Wurtz
