Mans VENUS ' MERCURY GQJJ t72Q5'fOI' Our four stage rocket was being readied for blast off. Many years of preparation throughout the grades have gone into this one rocket. The engines were assembled and test fired in .lunior high, and now as we returned to school as Freshmen in the fall of 1957, the rocket that had been idle for 215 months was brought out on the launching pad, and its fuel tanks were topped off with ambition, initiative, and knowledge. ' ' The countdown started-5-al-3-2-1-0. A count for each of the first days of school, and the zero for the first big job. The rocket was off! The big engine stage-red as we ran into a little rough weather as we were initiated. With Mr. Annis and Mr. Meade guiding and correcting our course, we weathered this and all of the other trials and tribulations of our first year of high school. As ninth grade became past history, our first stage fell back to earth and the second stage took over. With Mr. Merena and Mr. Hart at the controls, we gained terrific velocity as the returns from our few dances and refreshments at basketball games poured in and were added to our pay load. By now our rocket was orbiting the earth, and we were half way through. Mrs. Goodfellow and Mr. Forbes provided the flame neces- sary for the complete escape of the eartlfs gravitational field. They guided us through any possible snags when we made the Jr. Prom and the Jr. Carnival the biggest successes ever known to TCS. With this terrific guidance, by the time that we had rounded the moon and were ready for re-entry, we had a balance in our treasury greater than any other class had ever had. 'Now Mr. Evans and Miss Meyerman acted as our retro rockets and cushioned us for our re-entry. As we returned to earth as graduates, we find that we have a new set of standards and a better under- standing of what work really is. NEPTUNE URANUS SATURN MOON T SUN JUPITER
