.LQ ,sf .: :..'J'.,-'f' X6 S S I I I I nv' Our outstanding athletes certainly did shine Not to mention a few would be a crime: In football, Anderson, Calkins, and Guekel Won praise as high as a steeple, Joe Piccolo prominent in basketball Also starred with O'Neill in baseball, Peabody and Lombardo famous in track Zeal and courage did not lack, In cross country what would our class have done Without little johnny Lombardo to run. Came the junior Prom-a memorable night We danced and danced with hearts so light. We hailed our senior year with glee Studious and enthusiastic were we. Donald Peabody, a well-known student, Was elected our class president, Our vice-president, Bill Roseman Is quiet, but full of fun, Our secretary abounding with pep Teresa Connors, a good record kept, We cannot forget Georgia Kitchen Our treasurer who was elected then. The Senior Prom was held in the gym Beautifully decorated with lights dim. Our competitive play was a grand success For we placed first, no less. The Happy Journey was the name Of this play which brought us fame. Our Senior Play, Young April Was presented after many a drill. Football captain, Larry Anderson, Was a previous star of our gridiron. While Guekel, Calkins, and Roseman As a result for all they've done Made the all conference team last fall And we were proud of them one and all. Anderson, Piccolo, Higgins, and Tattersall Were our leading Senior boys in basketball, Birtwistle, Peabody and Lombardo In track each won praise as a hero. Our baseball stars gave us a thrill as we sat When Roseman, O'Neil, and Piccolo were at the bat As our graduation draws nigh, Erom our lips escapes a sigh, A trace of sadness in each heart As from our Alma Mater we depart.
