14 Class History Numerous activities in preparation for our Senior year occupied our at- tention as the year drew to a close. Class rings arrived, Senior hat s were ordered, and many of us participated in graduation as members of the Glee Club or usherettes at the Auditorium. As Seniors, we became a united group, eager to advance the interests of Trade High School and provide the most interesting, profitable and ehjoy- able year of our educational careers. We profited by the capable guidance of our Senior advisors: Mr. John J. Fortsch and Mrs. Virginia Simes, aided by the following assistant advisors: Mrs. Sylvia Bernstein, Mr. Alfred Magee, Mr. Daniel Meder, Miss Marguerite Murphy, Mrs. Helen Potter, and Mr. Ulysses Sousa. Among the items which occupied our attention were senior pictures, class ballot, prophecy, will, personal data for the Trade High Beaver, and pre- liminary plans for the big social event of the year — the Senior Banquet and Promenade. Our Senior officers provided capable leadership: President — Peter Maloni Vice President — Dennis Matulewicz Secretary — Sheila Peabody Treasurer — Jamie Bisceglia Marshals — Sandra Osgood, Joseph Galarneau We sponsored the Senior Rope Pull, which we won, and a Get Acquaint- ed Hop which was the first social event of the school year. Before too long it was time for the Senior Luncheon, which was greatly enjoyed by all of our class. All too soon came the Senior Class Promenade and Banquet, which provided a most enjoyable and outstanding event for all. The Shaker Farms Country Club was decorated beautifully, the dinner was delicious, and the music helped to provide memorable moments. Early in May, Class Day arrived; an interesting assembly program was produced for the entire school, followed by planting of the Ivy, picture taking and many group picnics. After this, many left school to take advantage of our excellent vocational training by securing early career placement. The happy culmination of our three wonderful years at Trade High School came on Monday, June tenth, when we assembled at our Municipal Audi- torium for the Graduation Ceremony of the Class of 1963. As we marched across the Auditorium platform to receive our precious diplomas, we all realized that our scholastic efforts had been successful, and we seriously contemplated the future. We were happy because of our accomplishments, grateful to our administration, faculty friends, and sponsors, and eager to assume our places in the world of work. Our thanks and best wishes to all our friends at Trade High School! — Sheila Peabody
