A SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Continued from page 13 During basketba.ll season we contributed six girls to help- win the games. They were Dot Shope, jean Mertz, Mary Lou Morocco, as forwards and Dona Furimsky, Louise Turchian. and jo Ann Miller as guards. That year our Junior girls came in second in inter-class basketball but the boys lost four of their good. players, Charles Glass, Leonard Golick, Frank Lawrence, and Bill Kellner. Mary Lou Morocco and jean Mertz were Junior! beauties in the May Queen's Court. Gerry Brickel and Louise Turchan continued their chieer- leading just as peppy as when they started their Freshman year. We hfad good times in bookeeping classes. Dorca.s Seybert and Eleanor Fedor were the upsetters there. We will always remember the Physics classes and parties we had and eats including potato salad. M11. Kelly al- ways objected but soon found out he could eat just as much as the rest of us. The most important social event of this period was the Prom. We had a good time decorating the gym withi streamers from one wall to the .other and the moon shining through. The center piece was a lily pond surround- ed withi grass. There were lounge chairs and couches. The guys and gals danced to the music of Tommy Carlyn. We will never forget the Junior class play 'AA Ready Made Family , with Ted Surmacz foaming at the mouth. Of course it was only soap suds. And the baby talk Jo Ann Miller used. Mr. Robiiinson, our faculty ruler, h-ad a tough time to get the play under way but without him it would never have been a success. We kept Mr. Stark hustling to think up enough jokes to tell our junior homeroom for we were a. pretty fast bunch of jokers ourselves. Since we had attained an enviable class standing, we began to look for new fields to conquer. Th'e humble band that had invaded the Freshman trenches three years before, now became Seniors, the mighty leaders of the realm, a.nd the In- vincible Class oi' 1947. The wise and sagacious Ted Surmacz was again elected our leader, the other officers being Charles Glass, vice-president Alice Schaab, secretary, and Robert Bacon, treasurer. The Senliors. numbering 57, greatly impressed themselves upon the lower tribes of the Temple of Learning and became noted for their ability and diligence. The only deserter from the class was Harry Portik who was lured into the outside world by a band of waifriors calling themselves the Marines. Continued on page 22 21
