A feeling of anxiety was shared by many of us as we awaited results from college ap- plications, but even college was forgotten as we stood backstage and waited for the class play to begin. Finally, there was that unexplainable feel- ing that we experienced as we slowly walked to the stage for our diplomas. Our senior year was now complete. How quickly it had passed! Yet never again will a year bring a happier or more memorable nine months than those we spent as seniors at Somerset Joint High School.

hi ff, 321 'fha Q. B. Knupp, L. Reed, M. Phillippi, D. Demarest Seniors On August 27, leaving the warm summer air, the picnics and the swimming behind us, we once more passed through the doors of Somerset High School. However, this year was destined to be a special omefor we were seniors. Suddenly we were admired, respected and envied, we were now the big brothers and sisters to 1200 students. It was such a won- derful feeling, iust as were the many others that we shared during those short nine months. Who will ever forget our feelings of tense excitement at every football and basketball OFFICERS President Barry Knupp Vice-President Donna Demarest, Edna Foust Secretary . Martha Philluppt Treasurer ,, Lindo Reed Sponsor ., , Mr. Blase Cundrtc game and each wrestling match or track meet? What could match the excited shouts of our school cheers at the pep meetings, after which every sound was hushed as we all ioined in singing the Alma Mater? How proud we all were when we got our senior pictures and name cards, when we were measured for caps and gowns and when we so efticiently reached our goal in the magazine sales. Of course we were also proud of our Rotarians, our queens, and the girls who were first to represent Somerset as Soroptomists. 'iw
