Loretto. This has been a year of innovations. We are proud to have been participants in such new ar- rangements as the use of our own Gymnasium, the organization of girls basketball teams, and the installation of our broadcasting equipment. Doing solo performances were officers: President, Frank Guanciale, Vice President, Paul Barkhurst, Secretary, Jack Simi, Treasurer, Linda Richmer. Two class members Joan Young and Paul Swank are basking in the distinction of hav- ing been chosen for Girls State and Boys State. As all symphony members must spend time in preparation for a performance, so we worked to- ward our production-the annual Junior-Senior prom held in Slattery Hall. Committee Chairman was George Gressle, others heading committees were Joan Young, Donald Widrig and Nancy Workman. To finance this venture, we staged various minor shows, such as the Turkey Trot, Kris Kringle Korn Ball. and the usual dances after home bas- ketball games. Nhen the Dramatic Club presented its play Foot Loose eight Juniors were cast. Playing two major parts were .loan Young and Rosemary Ruple, their fellow classmates participating were George Gressle, Joe Donaldson, Janet Fox, Thomas Boehm, Jack Simi, and Paul Barkhurst. We have enioyed our part in the Symphony of 1951 and look forward eagerly to Seniordom, come fall.

Bridgit O'Farrall 102-Secretary Pat Wirick Th this e tenth movement in the Symphony of year has been a very brilliant one-we think.- With the dual conducting of Sisters M. Caritas and Audrey we played os one class, though we had two homerooms. ze winning performances were executed by Joan Mathy, Stephanie Eitel, and Charles Friel. They wrote their way to glory. Our class was active in the Newsark and Yearbook campaigns, winning positions on the staff of the paper. ln- tramural sports found us giving opposition, but let's not talk about that. A brilliant chord was struck by Philip Fischer who had the leading boy's part in Foot-Loose. His scene with the collapsible ironing board still calls forth a chuckle.

At the third playing we felt as if we were hav- ing a run on Broadway. Any minute we ex- pected the show to be interrupted by a talent scout wanting to sign up Linda Van Arsdale and Eleanor Bruneau. The dances we introduced and the bake sale we sponsored swelled our coffers so that we go into the iunior year with a feeling of security. All the chords of our movement were character- ized by the rhythm born of unity. Heigh, ho! It's been a happy year.
