CLASS HISTORY Jett i cJL clcU + We, today, are Seniors, almost ready to and our days hare at S. C. S. For us the time has gone fast, but lat us stop and look over our last four years at Stamford Central. In 19U6 the Class of 9$0 eagerly entered its Freshman year in high school with 29 members and $27.99 in the treasury. Our goal, the Senior Class Trip and to lead us we elected Muriel Newman, President, Ruth Beach, Vice-President, Bucky Jones, Treasurer, and Margie Doroeky, Secretary. How- erer Margie left us, and we elected Bob Snyder in her place. Mr. Beanes was the class adviser. Also that year we were sorry to lose Or sen Mattioe, Bill Laux, Lula King, and Bob Smith During our first few weeks as Freshman we were deprived of the traditional Freshman initiation much to our sorrow. Ve had all been looking forward to it. To help boost the $27.99 to $91 Uk wo sponsored a dance, sold stationery and held a bake sale. Then it seemed like four long years until we would be Seniors. Our Sophomore year found us with three new members, Alice Eder, Paul Weinstein, and Dot Darby. However we had lest J. S. Vinson, Marion Oakley, Velma Hombeck, and later in the year Alice Eder left us. As our officers, we elected Bucky Jones, President, Sophie Ciolli, Vice-President, Jean Hall, Secretary, and Jean Lanigan, Treasurer. Mrs. Henderson was our class adviser. After much debate, we finally chose Blue and Oold as our class colors. We managed to raise the total in our treasury to $222.U8 by selling Christmas Cards, and sponsoring a Leap Tear Dance. As Juniors we welcomed Sylvia Benson and Edith Piergiorgi into the class. However much to our regret, Sophie Ciolli, Dudley Dubois and Ted Mas left. Ed Bettiol was elected President, Martin Scherry, Vice-President, Joan Churchill, Secretary, and Muriel Newman, Treasurer. Mrs. Henderson remained our class adviser. We selected the red rose as our class flower and Gone But Never For- gotten as our motto. We were overjoyed when our Class rings arrived and naturally we thought ours were better than anyone elses. Finally came the big event of the year, the Junior Prom. Bucky Jones and Muriel Newman were elected King and Queen, and Artie Dorn, Joan Churchill, Ed Bettiol, Jean Lanigan, Danny Coons, and Alice Orlowski were Attendants. From the proceeds of this and other ac- tivities we were ready to embark on our Senior year with $393 53 We began our last year in S. C. S. by electing Ken Mitchell, President, Bob Snyder, Vice- President, Paul Weinstein, Secretary, and Ed Morrison, Treasurer. Ed Bettiol was elected President of the Student Council and Ruth Beach and Jin Ingles were representatives from the class. Mr. Adair was our class adviser. We were sorry to lose Lou Ann Toepperwein and Alice Orlowski, but we welcomed John Bklund and Pete Hooks into our class. We sold mag asine a, sponsored a dance, and produced the play Billy's Ooat under the guidance of Mr. Leonard Adair and Mrs. John Graig. We also planned a skating party, card party, bake sale, and Donkey Basketball game, all fer our big moment, the Senior trip. After this big event, the last regents examinations, commencement exercises, and the Senior Ball come all too fast and we are saying good-bye to-dear eld Stamford Central. 19
