The Junior-Senior Prom, which the Mothers' Club helped sponsor, was abig event in our lives for it was really the first formal dance we had ever planned. Everyone had a good time. In September, 1956, twenty-five girls returned to school as mighty seniors. Our senior offic grs are: Mary Cox, President, Judy Dc- Lion, Vice President, Veronica Hession, Secretary, and Jean Lin- der, Treasurer. With Sister Emmanuel as sponsor, our class is working hard to make this their biggest and best year. So far we have attended a Winter Formal, edited a Yearbook, and arranged for the Senior Prom. We sponsored mixers, skating parties, and bake sales. As we now look forward to Graduation Day the class of 1957 is grateiul for everything the Priests and Franciscan Sisters have done for We wish to express our everlasting thanks to His Excellency Bishop John G Bennett and Reverend Arthur A S go lor all their help in continuing St Francis Class of 1957 MOTHERS CLUB Left to right Mrs Frank Petro President Mrs Walter Anthrop V1cePres1dent Mrs W111ysVander1pe Treasurer andMrs Robert Carroll Secretary Page 14 us.
