Sophs cope boldly with charges new As sophomores we continued to be the largest class at SBHS, six homerooms being necessary to accom- modate the 265 of us. Four of these were portable rooms and two in the main building. One noticeable change was our closer contact with the up- per classmen. We knew soon that two big projects were to be entirely our class responsibility—Catholic Book Month and the all-school barbecue at the Bernardian Bowl. Courageously we accepted the challenge and were hap- py when success crowned our efforts. This group about the table was but one of the several Catholic Book Club units, each handling a particular phase of the project: Nancy Tagliavia, Judith McDonald, Jeannine Robichaud, Jane Badagliacca, Susan Marceau, Barbara Thomas. Andre Gordon, Paul Mal- boeuf, Lionel Caron, John Regan, Alfred Som- ma, Charles Butterfield. Scholastically leading the class were: Jan- ice Flanagan, Carol Cohen, David Beauvais, Stephen Brodeur, Mary Conlon, Louise Grenache, Paula Levanti, Maureen Flynn, Gloria Harris, Maureen Flathers, John Thomas, Patericia An- derson, Nancy Byrnes, Cheryl Casassa, Kath- leen Duna, Judith Green. These pupils had also attained high grades: Yvette Lachance, William McColl, William Smith, Jane Badagliacca, Pamela Cunningham, Geraldine DiMassa, Paula Glenny, Theresa Jarvis, Mary Szymanski, Paulette Caron, Bar- bara Chartrand, Daniel Crowley, Maureen Har- dy, Jane Lavin, Delphyn Nourie. Sophomores were also beginning the new school year well when they entered the Decla- mation contest with zest: Richard Anderson, Stephen Bernard, Robert Bourque, Kenneth Bray, Nancy Byrnes, Barbara Chartrand, Kath- erine Coughlin, Theresa Farineau, Janice Flan- agan, Paula Glenny, Kathleen Hassett, Mary Hassett, Maryellen Hurley, Jane Lavin, Linda Ledden, Paula Levanti. Other declaimers were Jane Maguire, Ju- dith O'Leary, Thomas Nowd, Eileen Quinn, Carol Pirone, Suzanne Plette, John Regan, Tim- othy Shea, William Smith, Richard Tiernan, Robert Trainque, Karyn Turbide. Later in the year Jane Lavin won a 2nd- place money award at the Elk’s Oratorical Con- est. ner “ae ee
