A Backward Glance Backward turn backward, Oh, time in thy flight. Make me a child again just for tonight. Have you ever heard this expression? We don't want to go back to our childhood, but we do WHITE to go back four years in our lives to the day we entered T.H.S. as bright- eyed eager freshmen. September 1953! On this eventful day, we met Mrs. Basile and Miss Murray, our class advisors, who gave us the moral support we needed. Our first big event was the election of class of- ficers. Our president was Robert Allen, vice-presi- dent, Richard Carey, secretary, Frances Basileg treasurer and student council representative, Marie Sullivan. Chosen to represent our class on the cheering squad was Marie Sullivan. During this year Nancy Tenello, Dorothy Lacey, and Ronald James were added to our class. In November we held our first dance, The Fiesta Frolic, and fun was had by all. Now we felt a little more important. At the senior dance, Gerald Trull and Mary Jane Farley reigned as Freshman King and Queen. Having survived football season, basketball sea- son, and final exams, we set out to enjoy our sum- mer vacation. September 1954! Well-tanned and rested we re- turned as Sophomores with high spirits.

The rest of the year just flew right by as we kept up with the school's activities, September 1955! Enthusiastic about being jun- iors and hoping to survive to be seniors we were eager to return. We started the year off as usual with the election of class officers. The same officers presided and worked for the benefit of the class. The junior trio who served on student council was Robert Allen, Mary Jane Farley, and Philip Decgrolig, Our first dance of the year was the Fall Spin.
