Senior Participation Ranks High The hard work, dedication, and the imagination of the four Senior Class officers. President — Bill Cannon, Vice President — Kathy Collins, Secretary — Shiryl Roller, and Treasurer — Karen Phaneuf, increased the September ’74 class treasury of $180.00 to the April ’75 treasury of $503.53. The first job which confronted the officers was to scout around and choose a site for the prom, which led to organizing a prom committee, and choosing prom favors, the band, and invitations. Some of the class treasury went to the prom enabling the prom tickets to be sold for $8.00, a $4.00 reduction from last year. Next, the officers arranged for a Senior Assembly where the Senior Trip was discussed. The officers had worked with Mr. Markoff and came up with a list of possibles. The most difficult chore which faced the officers was organizing Class Day and Graduation. These items mentioned were a few among the many things the officers did for the Senior Class. The year got off on the right foot as the first project of the seniors was to work on the Senior class float for Homecoming. Chicken wire, lumber, nails, and papier-mache covered Kim Ely’s backyard as dedicated seniors worked everyday after school. The float consisted of a Tiger’s head with a pendulum depicting Reflections of Time.” There was a slight misunderstanding between certain people and a lumber company, but a compromise was reached. The float was finally finished and on the day of the game, members of the float committee left school early to assemble their creation. That night, the Senior class proudly displayed their artistic efforts. A loose pendulum caused some mourning but didn’t dampen the spirits. The Senior Class had communicated to everyone that it was possible for a group of totally different people to come together and work towards a common goal. SENIOR CLASS OEFICERS: President — Bill Cannon, Vice President — Kathy Collins, Secretary — Shiryl Roller, Treasurer — Karen Phaneuf Karen Mittelman, Float Committee Chairman, guards the float. A few of the seniors who worked on the float. Bill, the Pres.! 159 SENIORS

Qeniors — On Top of the Wofid The class of Seventy-five was probably the best thing ever to hit Tabb High. On the first day of school many Seniors were hit by the first signs of Senioritis. But for others, the last few days showed the beginning of it. With the commencement of school, senior affairs were voted on, and soon after, the mumble of voices could be heard issuing from the Senior Lounge. The prom, the band for the prom, the Senior trip, and graduation were all topics. Finally all was settled. The prom was set for May 10th at the Bonhomme Richard in Williamsburg. SLAPWATER provided music. Six Flags over Georgia and Opreyland were the sites for the Senior trip. With the advent of the new school year the seniors invaded the Senior Lounge and various signs adorned the walls of the room. Many heated conversations reverberated off the walls and the mature seniors engaged in throwing cushions, overturning chairs, and running underclassmen out of the lounge. But neither did the Seniors escape hassle by other Seniors. Books were hidden, seniors were vacated from their seats, and occasionally the inhabitants of the lounge engaged in altering one’s clothing or discussing one’s personal life to the extreme embarrassment of that person. Senior activities throughout the year were steadily attended by the senior i sponsors Mr. George Jobson, Mrs. Esther Freeman, Mrs. Sharon Jones, I Mrs. Elizabeth Smith, and Mrs. Jane Diehl. . - M Kim reconciles with Steve — again.
