Extra Curricular Activities Not only do extra-curricular activities provide one with a good time, but they also offer an inner satis- faction. The feeling of belonging, and the personal joys received in contributing to the happiness of others are factors which make the events of the social side of high school so memorable. New surroundings for some, old surroundings for most, but for all a quick adaptation into the hubbub of the school year is an inevitable consequence. Couples enjoy the strains of the Musical Knights at the Homecoming dance sponsored by the junior class of St. Joseph.

Ml Nazareth high school students show honor and respect as the flag is raised in ceremony during Americanism Week. 13

A Senior Seems to Live in a World of His Own It can well be said that a senior lives one year in a world completely his own. As a senior, you feel that burst of pride as you display the hard-earned senior ring on your finger. You feel a certain superiority as you initiate the lowly freshmen. You feel mature when endowed with senior privileges and responsibilities. You feel honored when the Junior-Senior Prom is given just for you. And on graduation night, you feel sad as you realize that you leave behind forever the fun-filled high-school era, and that you shall never again return to it. A senior year is full of activities, emotions, responsi- bilities, and expectations. You finally realize just what an outstanding individual your school has made you, and you learn to be grateful for the fine standards and knowledge with which you have been endowed. As you leave the halls of Nazareth, stroll down St. Joe Lane for the last time, you can proudly say — This is my school; these sights are familiar to me because I ' m a part of this school and I shall never forget this graduation year. The beginning ot the year involves much paper work. However, Mike Hermes is anxious to settle his debts with school secretary, Rita Barnabei, and to become the proud owner of his senior ring. Monsignor Beck blesses the rings before presenting them to the seniors in a traditional ceremony. The gang ' s all here, let ' s give a cheer! Senior mock che leaders, led by ' Steph ' Fox, spark a yell of enthusiasm.
