Their main object was to raise money tor the Junior-Senior Prom, and they started selling personal stationery, this proved so successful that they had another campaign later in the year. The class dance, Hollywood Carousel, was held on January 31. A large crowd attended and was entertained with a very clever skit by members of the class. On its annual trip to Pittsburgh the class saw the stage play State ot the Union and visited the museum. The last event of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom when the Juniors entertained the Seniors. Aside from club activities, members ot the class participated in the clubs and- sports. The Junior boys helped to lead the tootball and basketball teams through their successful year. The class motto is Live to learn and learn to Iive, the flower is the yellow rose, and the colors are red and yellow.

Four years ago when we were Freshmen, do you remember how bashful and shy Dusty Rhoads was? I-le ran around all day with his jacket on 'cause he was afraid to take it off. My! how that boy's changed! Jim Keelan started playing top varsity football that year and kept right on going all through his next tour years. Our Sophomore year brought out more of our talents, which we used to the advantage of everyone at our first high school dance, Static Stumblef' It went through the usual run of radio programs for the day with our own improve- ments. That year, too, we held a Christmas party at Joan Naylor's home. There was music and all the food you wanted, and above all, loads of fun. Well, another year passed and we found ourselves Juniors. We took a trip to Pittsburgh, and everyone, including Miss Luebbe and Mr. Snowden, had a fine time. Early in the morning, we went to the Carnegie Museum and unearthed more stuff than we ever knew existed. We saw the stage play Dear Ruth in the afternoon and then went to the Buhl Planetarium in the evening. Our annual dance that year was entitled Cactus Jump. It had an Old Wild West theme. In the spring, we held a dinner and dance for the Seniors at Green Gables. The evening was successful,.even though a bit touching. In our Senior year we had two dances, a Christmas dance, with music by Bob Hislop and his orchestra, and the Totem Pole Tumble , a gym-iam following the Bedford game. Sports played a rnaior part in the lives of most of the Seniors. Many of the girls were in G. A. A. On the football team were Fritz Muncert, quarterback, Bill McGoldrick, tackle, Bob Gallucci, center, and Jim Keelan, halfback. Slim Dusty Rhoads brilliantly filled one of the forward spots on the basketball squad while Fritz Muncert again proved his worth as center on the team. Bill McGoldrick, as president, kept the wheels running in the right direction. And so came graduation, ioyful, yet sad because it brought to a close our happy high school years.

The gay young Sophomores found their first year in Senior High School much to their liking. Under the keen observation and guidance of Miss Lambert, and the able direction of their president, l-lud l-lollenback, they completed their first proiect, selling greeting cards. Everyone did his share to make this a financial success. Many representatives took an active part in the football and basketball squads. The boys were not alone in this. The girls formed Cl basketball team of their own with Marian Peck and Donna Sheehan as captains. The Sophomores took part in other activities, too. They were pleased when two of their members were given leading roles in the school play, What a Life. The actors were Charles Schultz and Bob Ashworth. After the turn of the new year, they decided to hold a dance on February 28. Under the general chairmanship of Charles Schultz, the dance, Carnival Capers , was a success both socially and financially. The class motto is They conquer who believe they can, the flower is the lily of the valley, and the colors are blue and white.
