March of l957 will be a month long remembered by most Archers, for our glorious basketball team com- pleted a 20-7 record, claiming crowns in city, sectional, and regional play. lt took the very best to beat us, and after falling to the state champs, South Bend Central, the cry We'll take that State in '58! was immediately taken up. Long will we remember those shouts of victory and the Celebrations following the games. Wow! Did we say celebrations? It looks like a big celebrating kiss our star center Mike McCoy is planting on pretty Donna Ornas in the lower center picture. After basketball excitement had toned down, South Side began its many springtime activities, beginning with the Senior Play. The cast of Our Town, seen in the top picture, spent their time during the lovely weather of Spring Vacation perfecting their parts under the direction of Mr. Jack Morey. Seen fixing their costumes are Klem Lebamoff, Judy Clark, Jim Clauser, Pam Manth, joe Winder, Carolyn Beardsley, and Terry Eads. In the upper center picture, the chorus line for Spring Daze, last year's Sophomore Party, is caught in action. From left to right are Sally Chapman, Kay McNabb, Kathy Bright, Nancy Burton, Judy Christman, Carolyn Beardsley, Betty Wild, Barb Curtis, and Ginny Whitmer. In the sports field, the Archers turned to track. In the bottom picture Mel Smith watches as Tom Pinder and Chris Stavreti take off in the 100-yard dash against Kokomo cindermen. March and April 9 never to be repeated
