Returning in September to the now familiar halls of S. A. as worldly sophomores, we promptly elected as our leaders: Judy Mullany, president; Joan Beattie, vice presi- dent; Mitchel Maslanka, secretary; Louise Zembiski, treasurer; and George Zgrodnik, Student Council representative. Again our zealous class endeavored to enjoy as many activities as possible. Our first project was the Harvest Hop, held November 9, which proved to be a huge success. The decorations, portraying a harvest night, consisted of cornstalks clustered in a huge pile beside which was an old fashioned wheelbarrow, overturned and filled with fruits and vegetables. A black fence brightened by pump- kins, a large winking moon, and silver stars completed the colorful scene. The highlight of the year was the obtaining of our class rings. Leaving Smith Academy that summer for a well-earned vacation, we assured each other that we would return, filled with ambition, in the fall, ready to begin our first year as upperclassmen. Re-entering Smith Academy as proud and determined juniors, we selected as presid- ing officers: Peter Pelc, president; George Zgrodnik, vice president; Mitchel Maslanka, secretary; Louise Zembiski, treasurer; and Bernard Wilkes and William Slysz as Stu- dent Council representatives. The first business consisted of initiating the freshmen which we performed quite willingly on September 27. Displaying our omnipotence as almighty upperclassmen, we put the frightened newcomers through one grueling but amusing stunt after another, while providing an enjoyable evening for all. Once more, prominence in school activities was an accomplishment of which we were proud. May came and brought us face to face with Prize Speaking, one of the most dreaded events of high school. After the Ordeal had been conquered, Judy Mullany and Henry Dorsch emerged as the victors. May also was the time of the annual Junior Prom. On the eventful day, Friday, May 16, the town hall burst forth as a Southern paradise, complete with a blooming Raintree majestically set in the middle of an ominous swamp. Sally Kubosiak reigned as belle of the ball on that glorious eve, which will be long re- membered by all who attended. Adjourning for the summer, we anxiously awaited our final and most outstanding year. Commencing the most memorable year of our lives, we placed in charge: George Zgrodnik, president; Peter Pelc, vice president; Judy Mullany, secretary; Louise Zem- biski, treasurer; and Henry Dorsch, Sally Kubosiak, and Catherine Pickett, Student Council representatives. To augment our treasury, the class presented the three act comedy, Cheaper by the Dozen , which was a tremendous hit. Senior-sponsored food sales also proved extremely lucrative as did an Alumni- Varsity basketball game featur- ing both boys and girls. Undoubtedly the highlight of the year was the long awaited Washington Trip. Our embarkation in April for Washington was the realization of four years of labor, dreams, and anticipation. As our senior year draws to a close, we sadly prepare for the final event, gradua- tion, which will transpire on Friday, June 12. Then, as we solemnly take our places in the procession to receive that scroll which will be our passport to the future, we will remember more clearly than ever what we have learned within these hallowed halls — IN OURSELVES OUR FUTURE LIES.
