.TUDITH STRONG to attend college. BERNARD PEPLINSKI It's difficult to say just which has kept Bernie the busiest in high schooL Of course being Boy's State representative didn't infringe upon school time, but being class President for two years did. His duties as Editor of the Highlights might be considered the most time-consuming, just as his duties as Student Council President might, but maybe again it was his faithful upholding of his favorite title, wrestling champ. LYLE SMITH NANCY MILLER The star soprano of V.H.S., besides filling the last four years with music in chorus and girls' ensemble, has been on the Highlights staff as community editor, has been inSpanishClub and F.H.A. However, none of these have daunted Nancy's enthusiasm over being aclass officer, a color guard for the band, or a student council representative.

RICHARD SMITH Skip, sometimes kiddingly referred to as the class clown, also clowns around on the wrestling mat. Actually, he is really quite good. One of his major time consuming activities has been as a wrestler. He has participated in this sport for all four years of his high school career. Besides this, Skip has also been in football. BEVERLY TENNANT Probably the quietest member of the Class of '59 is Beverly. A Home Economics major, Bev is cooperative, friendly, and agreeable. She has participated in girls' soccer and softball for three years. F AY VAN BRINK Always bubbl.i.ng with conversation, Fay has managed to squeeze a surprising number of extracurricular activities into an already K tight schedule. Soccer, intra-mural basketball and softball have constituted a large portion of her spare time. Besides this, F ay has been in chorus and girls' ensemble and has been a class officer all four years. It is certain her duties as anofficer have come in handy for the F.H.A. presidency, which she has also attained. RICHARD YULE Although Dick's interest have included yearbook, Dramatics Club, Highlights , Che's been advertising manager for three yearsj and wrestling, nothing is comparable to his interest in agriculture. Ap- propriately, Dick has been in the F .F .A. throughout high school: this year he was elected President. After graduation Dick plans to put his schooling to practical use on a certain farm outside Jordanville. 11

NORA BENNETT This pert senior, who fairly abounds with high spirits, even when she's introspective, has managed to do justice to many varied activities besides maintaining a high scholastic average. Among these are chorus, band, dance band, girls' ensemble, cheerleading and all girls' sports, F.H.A. and Spanish Club. In class politics she's held many offices, the most important being President of the senior class. This year Nora was also co-editor of the OTSQUAGAN, as well as being very active socially Cto name a few, she reigned supreme at the Junior Prom and was Queen of this year's Winter Carnivall. As you might expect, Nora hopes to go on to college - Albany State.
