Some of you will now end your formal schooling, some will spend time in the service of their country, others may pursue further education and training. All of you are at the threshold of manhood and womanhood. Whatever may be your destiny, we hope that your days in the Shickshinny High School have been pleasant and that you succeed in all your future endeavors. GREETINGS May I congratulate the members of the Class of 1955 upon successfully completing the obiective of graduation. In a few days you will scatter over a large territory and engage in many differ- ent fields of endeavor. I hope that your Legend will always remind you of pleasant associations with the faculty and stu- dents of the Shickshinny High School. MR. MILLER I I CLAUDE E. MILLER C. REYNOLD HARVEY CLAUDE E.

State Band Representatives PATRICIA PULEN GARY SCOTT Loyalty Day Parade fl' ' ' Q as l I I ewan gandw With the opening of football season, the Shick- shinny High School Band started another busy school year. The members worked hard on new songs and outstanding formations. Many half-time shows featuring the twirlers and musicians gained favorable comment at the football games. A new attraction which Mr. Gentile added this year was a team of flag twirlers. During Fair Week the band went to the Blooms- burg Fair where it was named Band of the Day. It also won first prize in the Benton Halloween parade. At the end of football season, the band rehearsed Christmas music for the annual Christmas concert which was put on by the band and girls' choir com- 94-- K , S 1 '51 i,Jf'.'-141 SIIICKSHINNY Inna scaum. sum l - s bined. Some of this holiday music was played by the band when it took part in the dedication of the newly-built grade school at Hunlock Creek. ln January two very exciting events took place. One was the Military Ball, held in the gymnasium which was beautifully decorated with an under-the- sea effect symbolizing Davy Jones' Locker. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the queen, Sally Curwood, and the king, Roger Lane, by last year's king and queen, Charles Kiethline and Eileen Ross. The other event was a trip to Harrisburg to parti- cipate in the inaugural parade. Details and photo- . f Tx.. tx INFY ' 22-Y' slllcxggnplf' Y HFHNNU ' 4 'O F5 QJG, graphs of this trip are found on other pages of this yearbook. Soon everyone found himself deep in music for the annual band concert. From Bach's symphony to a iazzed version of Little Red Riding Hood, the num- bers were enioyed by all. The concert was also given at the Retreat State Hospital. Next came the Northeast District Band Festival at Hazleton. Shickshinny was represented by Gary Scott, Patricia Pulen, Donald Benscoter, and Audrie Miller. On May 9 the band left for a two-day trip to New York City sponsored by the Band Parents' Organiza- tion. The musicians enioyed fine entertainment among which was a concert by the Cities Service Band of America conducted by Paul Lavelle. This year State Band was held in Harrisburg. The band was proud to have representing it Patricia Pulen and Gary Scott. During the third week in May band members and twirlers from grades ten to twelve participated in the County Band. Seven other schools took part in this event which included about 200 musicians. After two practice sessions the big performance was held at the Forty Fort Stadium. As the weather became warmer, the band started marching practice for the Loyalty Day Parade at Nan- ticoke where it received a beautiful trophy for first prize. Once again the Memorial Day Parade at Sweet Valley concluded the band's activities forthe year. - .1-4 0 Y 'gcwd FIRST ROW: Judy Featherman, Kay Reider, Robert Andrews, Donna Blackburn, Gary Thomas, Connie Nallo Jean Oliver, Marilyn Meeker, Alex Stepanski, Barry Titus, JoAnn Kotroski, Anna Mae K ss, Jacquelyn Martin, Judy Titus Lois Gearhart, Gloria Link, Robert Jenkins, Tommy Pugh, Donald Birth, Michael Kokora, SECOND ROW: Craig Cottle, David Bloom, David Kiethline, Edward Reese, Arthur Askew, Michael Bedio, Thomas Sudol, Arden Birth, Leroy Gensel, Paul Kokora, Donald Whitebread, Robert Stepanski.

They have undertaken many worth- while proiects which will enable them to become better homemakers. A little before Thanksgiving Day, the members provided a family with a basket of food for their Thanksgiving dinner. At Christmas the club made up several baskets of food which were given to needy families and packed a large box of clothing for the children in St. Stanislaus Orphanage. They also baked 800 cookies for the Junior High party. However, their most elaborate proiect was a party for the local first graders. This activity gave the students experi- ence in handling and entertaining a group of chil- dren. The highlight of the party was the appearance of Santa Claus.

The members ended a successful year with a picnic and a spaghetti dinner prepared and served in the cottage. The photos below illustrate two club activities.

Since the class had decided to include a banquet in addition to the usual prom activities, the amount of money to be earned would be nearly doubled that of previous years. Therefore the committee planned a number of fund raising projects. The first of the smaller proiects was the selling of refreshments, programs, and pennants at the football games. During the Halloween season colorful candles of various shapes and sizes were sold. Throughout the year the class held a series of bake sales and took orders for personal sta- tionery. 4 C5353 l , Q in i B na In -,......,,,,, .1 , ' 5 el' ' I I j .5 :M N Hail'aiUiqegirspcgtjranijoEirgfiyy-ilcox as . . l V . 4 on , ' Mc--- they write 'he Ma -. fi Q Q UBBB ISM 1 -Tv gl' R rv. 1 s I I Wi ls-:J V-ex ' M- ' ,...t+-f- l QynQel e5 al al en! 33 aye Rift Co-Challlglcwlk lo NCOV prO l yin andolcfnenls' ran ,.i, l 'lr s 'I- il or Ruby Hoyt points out her answer to Faye McMichael and Joyce Saxe.

The members of the yearbook staff, with Miss Shantz and Miss Smethers as advisors, have attempted to compile a scrapbook of high school memories. They have tried to include all the phases of school life that have made each student's year purposeful and enioyable. Although the staff compiled this annual, the credit for its success is not wholely theirs. It must be shared by the entire senior class who worked diligently to raise the funds needed to produce a yearbook of this size. It is the hope of the staff that, in the future, the pages of this yearbook will recall pleasant memories of days spent in Shickshinny High School.

The club's purpose is to learn more about science and to be of service to the school. One ot the boys' proiects was to keep Mr. Martini's room, the closet containing science equipment, and the supply room in good order. Other activi- ties included an interesting report by one ot the members on howto buy a television set, a group discussion on the improvements in automobiles, and a bake sale to raise funds tor a field trip. With the money raised, the club members and their sponsor went to Northumberland to see the home of Joseph Priestley, the discoverer of oxygen. The tour included the Priestley Museum, the Priestley Chapel, and the Priestley-Forsythe Library, Then the boys drove to Almedia to visit the Elan Memorial Park vvhere they saw hundreds ot varieties ot common and rare plants. The club's last project was the making of a radio which was capable of receiving stations 300 miles away.

Although the Indians' won-and-lost record does not look very good with no wins, there are some important aspects which should be pointed out. One is that Shickshinny had a young team with only four seniorswAndrew Slembarski, Donald Keiner, Gerald Kapica, and Frank Cerreta. Another point to be re- membered is the fact that with a couple of breaks in at least four of the eight ball games the Indians would have been riding high. The first game was at home against Plymouth, which the Indians lost by a score of 7-I. For the sec- ond game the boys traveled to Nanticoke where they were out-scored by a 7-4 count. Then the Indians faced what was the toughest team in the league, Larksville, which beat the Shinny team by only one run, 32. This defeat was followed by another when Newport won 5-I. Next the Indians iourneyed to Plymouth and found themselves on the short end a very wellplayed ball game 53 Firstp Nanticoke squeezed through a 2 I victory but second place Larksville proved its second place po sition by knocking out a I2 O win The last game of the season with Newport as the opponent ended w a 3 I s ln the top car did on the eft Donald Ke ner gets set to whack a few balls out as Frank Cerreta gets ready to catch them if Keiner msses In the next picture Mr. Oayeski shows Cerreta how o clip the tip ot the base .-wh his toe on a hook sl de.

All stu- dents took an active part in the program, which in- cluded not only the traditional features of preceding parties, but an original and entertaining floor show as Well. The setting was a little French cafe, where the students gathered to celebrate Fat Tuesday. The first part of the program was a radio broadcast, including a quiz show and interesting news about the guests in both French and English. Following some games, the students put on a highly successful floor show, complete with a life-size French poodle and a quartet of lovely French demoiselles straight from the Rue de la Paix. The main events of the affair were the crown- ing of Joyce Saxe as the Belle of the Mardi Gras and an informal dance which ended all too soon.
