They may be responsible for newspapers or yearbooks, be- tween-game snacks or after-game dances, hall posters or classroom movies. Yet they help us plan for the future, teach us many constructive things, help mold our characters, and let us ex- ercise our democratic rights.

French and Spanish give a helpful background for these two modern foreign languages. Latin, the basis for English, is a valuable aid for those preparing for higher edu- cation. x 1 JL. ln. a il Am , N ... S53 17 5, - s uk. P I er s Mary L.

They find this in the Co-To-College Club-an organization open to any girl seeking in- formation on college requirements, needed credits for admission, and general information about the schools in the Tri-State area. Miss Alice Drake, the club's adviser, endeavors to arouse interest in college attendance by an- nouncements over the public address system and publicizing information about scholarships on the 4th floor bulletin board. Many interesting programs geared to the subject of college versus career were presented this year. Mrs. Arthur French spoke on Are You Ready for CollegeP', Mrs. John McCarrell from WVaynesburg College and Mr. White of Muskingum told of their respective schools at the November and january meetings. In February, Mrs. john Kelchner. presi- dent of the Wfashington Hospital Alumni Associa- tion, spoke on Nursing as a Careerf' At this same meeting an initiation program was held. At the March meeting Mr. Perry H. Boden, Ir., Director of Admissions at Bethany College. was the guest speaker. Thus the girls are given guidance in making an important decision-which college or which profes- sion-they are best qualified to enter.

This organi- zation has already settled many disputes and prob- lems that have arisen between countries, and it will continue to do so until world peace is at last a reality. Because of its importance to our world today, our school acquaints all the students with the origin, organization, and Work of the United Nations. In order to focus still greater attention on the subject, a United Nations contest is held each year among the senior high students, consisting of a test on any information about this organization. The winner of the contest in our school competes with winners from other schools. Besides making us more aware of the Work that the United Nations has done, this contest helps us to pay more attention to the hap- penings in our world today. This contest is only one of the Ways in which our Social Studies Depart- ment plays an active part in our school. ,ga Top Row: E. McVVee, C. NVard, M. Dezack, P. Devenney, I. Fields, M. Cooper, C.

The fifty-odd student librarians making up the membership of VVash Higlfs Library Council devote their study halls and free time to helping fellow students find a good novel, a needed quota- tion, or a magazine article -and in so doing, be- come familiar with reference books, current publi- cations. and literature. Besides their assigned duties in the library, the group held general monthly meetings devoted to the use and operation of a school library, plus spe- cial meetings and activities, such as the covered dish dinner, plays in which the members took part, outside speakers, and a tea for the faculty. Margaret Langiitt, the president, Worked with Miss Laura Robb, the librarian, and they Were as- sisted by the other oiiicers, Eleanor Smagner, vice president, Doris Lyle, secretary, and Janet Fitz- simmons, treasurer. The purpose of the Library Council is to keep the library operating at its top efiiciency and to maintain neatness and order. Girls of the council are assigned Working hours in the library, during which time they stamp incoming and outgoing books, keep the magazine room in order, type cards for the card catalogue, loan and file magazines, and put returned books in their proper places on the shelves. Clever arrangements from new book jackets, pos- ters, and displays are used to brighten up the li- brary. These displays are changed Weekly to stimu- late interest.

Bottom: Any day, any period, you will find just such a group at work in the Library. The world today is the most complicated that has ever existed. No one knows even a little about everything that is happening in our world. There- fore, it is a world of specialization. People cou- centrate on one aspect of life only. But what about a high school student living in this intricate world? He is expected to know as much about his country and his world as his grandparents did about theirs. And today's world is much larger than it was 50 years ago. At that time such places as Iwo Jima, Corregidor, and the Solomons were unheard-of places. Today, wars and battles in foreign countries have made such places as familiar as Chicago or Main Street, U. S. A. This places a great responsibility upon the shoulders of the Social Studies Department, in order to give the average student a working knowledge of as many phases of life as possible. The field of history is growing each day, and more and more is being found out about the geography of the world, VVith so much more to learn, the field of Social Studies is growing. tco. It is becoming more important and more neces- sary for a good citizen of today to have this knowledge. l 94 .4 m0Llf!LemczfLc5 The demand for engi- neers and scientists today makes math a vital subject.

It is no longer an impractical subject, but rather one that is taken for granted. Mathematics is anything but a closed field.

This is a responsibility which can develop into a pretty hectic job-for the hours are long, and the demands many. Our high school auditorium is much in demand by outside organizations, and the S. O. S. boys must be at work, seeing that everything is working smoothly when the curtain goes up. Under the care of these twenty-five boys is much valuable equipment, such as slide and sound film projectors and tape recorders. Each year new members are selected from the Sth and 9th grades and initiated into the in- tricate workings of the movie equipment. Once they pass a test on the operation of this equip- ment, they are on their own. The requirements for admission are few, one study hall a day and passing grades are the necessary standards. Meetings for this service organization are in charge of XVayne Davidson, president. john Rodenski serves as vice president, and Ralph Piatt is the secretary-treasurer. Mr. Kratt is the adviser. 30 Robert Gricst instructs Arthur Fer- rell how to thread a projector. owinew 5 ncafcon Good training in busi- ness education today means Well-trained secre- taries tomorrow.

This course, started six years ago, has made student drivers more aware of driving sensibly and ably. Its popularity is indicated by the number of students who sign up each summer to take the course during their vacation period. Classroom sessions are held to familiarize the students with the various parts of a car. Films are shown on the hoWs,' and whys of good driving. But the classroom discussions are only a part of each driver's training. And every member looks forward to the class period when he slides behind the wheel of the 1955 Nash and cruises off. Of course, this car is equipped with dual controls, so that, when neces- sary, Mr. Iohnson could control the driving. And occasionally the corner was turned too short, or a bit of paint was chipped off a fender, but these were only minor casualties. After each nine-week training period, the stu- dents report to the State Police Barracks for their driving test. If this is passed successfully, then the student becomes the proud possessor of a 1956 clriverls license. - 1 AMAA g76!lfLC6LfL0VL 'CA sane mind in a sound bodyv may date back 1900 years, but its principle is still a part of the modern high school curriculum.

It is a fit- ting finale to the half-time festivities. Hours of after-school practice has made- these near-perfect shows possible. In the fall of 1955, the band started its 28th year under the capable leadership of its originator, Paul E. Harding. This year a new assistant, Roger Wil- liams, offered valuable assistance in perfecting the drills and formations. The band is one of the hardest working organiza- tions of the school and most in demand. Two weeks before school started in September, the young mu- sicians were hard at work preparing the shows for football season. During the school year, they par- ticipated in the Wilkinsbnrg Kiwanis Marching Band Festival, played for a Steeler professional foot- ball game, marched in parades for Old-Fashioned Bargain Days, Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Top How: R.

And on February 2, S, and 4, David Davis attended State Band at Meadville. Under the leadership of Mr. XVilliams a dance band of 20 members has been organized, and prac- tices faithtnlly several times a Week. The Wash High Band Aides-an organization of parents of the band members-was again in opera- tion, and last fall awarded sweaters to all senior letter men. The wonderful last party, sponsored by this group of parents, concluded the year's activi- ties in grand style. Much time was spent in daily practice, sectional rehearsals, and individual lessons in preparation for the animal spring concert-Melody Fiesta-which was held April 12. Twenty-one seniors will play in the band for the last time on the evening of Commencement. They will be gone from Wzisli High, but their memories of the band will live on. ,Wy . M.. . J..

This choir is subdivided into four other groups: the A Cappella or robed choir of 88 voices, the mixed ensemble of S3 members, girls' ensemble' with 20 girls, and the Senior Trio. These groups presented programs for service clubs and church groups, as well as for our own assemblies. On AQ- -'x March 22, the mixed ensemble sang several num- bers in an assembly program, high-lighted by the personal appearance of Vaughn Monroe. Chorus officers for the year were Betsy Maw- hinney, president, Guy Tucci, vice presidentg Pat Drylie, secretary, and jack Pettit, treasurer. Nine members of the chorus represented Wash- inffton High School at District Chorus in April. The vocal music of the senior high school is under the direction of Herbert Ostrander.

It was impossible to attend a home football game last fall without seeing WHS football programs dotted among the spectators. This was the work of the Key Club. Before school started in Septem- ber, these boys were busy at work selling advertise- ments and compiling the program. Then in the fall, they sold the programs to make money to send their representatives to state and national conven- tions as Well as to contribute some useful project to the school. In January they held a Student Leaders Banquet, honoring those leaders in organized activities, who had contributed time and effort to making their i if in club worthwhile. A Career Day was held in April to which were invited representatives from various phases of work to speak to the seniors. Preliminary to this, a poll was taken of vocational interests to find the occupations most in demand. The boys are frequent luncheon guests of the Kiwanis Club, who sponsors their organization in the high school. Officers for the year include: Robert Smith, presi- dent, Iohn Nicolella, vice president, Guy Tucci, sec- retary, and VVilliam Sharp, treasurer, Mr. WVatson Miller is the club adviser. ii -s I CLUB OFFICERS Standing: Guy Tucci, WVilliam Sharp, john Nicolella.

This club was organized in 1932 by Miss Lively for junior and senior girls, showing excel- lence of character, leadership ability, academic achievement, and a desire for service. The service projects of the club this year includ- ed: making boxes of candies and cookies for the Vx7omen's County Home, making the programs for the School Leaders' Banquet, helping the Key Club make wreaths at Christmas time. 'ilvly Future-What Will I be?', and My Future -VVhat Will I Make of It?', were the semester themes for the programs. Guest speakers, panel discussions, and special holiday pageants and par- ties completed the programs. Ollicers elected for the year were: Carol Parr, president, Cathy French, vice president, Sandra Elias, secretary, and Linda French, treasurer. The Alpha Hi-Y is a service club to the school and community. It is affiliated with the school, the local YMCA, and the International Hi-Y Fellow- ship. The club has accomplished such projects as carrying out the March of Dimes collection in OU1' schools and sponsoring the Teen-Talks. The club has a membership of 32 members with the following oiiicers: Don Morris, president, James Hackney, vice president, Wilbert Schollaert, secretary, john Nicolella, treasurer, and Roy Smith, chaplain. At its reorganization in 1953, the club chose as its adviser, Mr. R. 1. Dunn, who has long been associated with the organization. Along with Mr. Dunn, the YMCA boys' work secretary, Mr. Youtz, has been very helpful. D. Richmond, I. Mawhinney R. Wozniak, VV. Decker. C. Lew. j 5 l Top Row: D. Spragg, R. Crothufs Second Row: WV.

The typists, Indy Conger, Helen Gottshall, and QIoAnn Huifman tap those little black keys until their fingers ache, trying to meet the deadline. Contributions are handed in by the homeroom reporters, thus getting the news from all grades. After re-writing, correcting spelling mistakes and improper use of the English language, and typing, the finished producti' is handed in to Georgette Morris, Editor-in-Chief and then is given to Miss Dorothy I.

In fact a position on the Little Prexie staff is liter- ally a year-long job. Early last summer, the Senior members of the staff met to plan the 1956 book. A military theme was chosen, and with the aid of Col. W. H. Parr, a West Point graduate, Work was started. By the end of the summer, the arrangement of the book, the cap- tions for the classes, and the introduction were completed. So by the time the school year started, much of our yearbook was in the rough draftv stage. Junior members of the staff were elected, and we got down to the more pleasantif?Q aspects of putting a yearbook together. Enjoyable things like- getting advertisements, pasting pictures, and arguing over colors! Yes, it was indeed an experience to see the overjoyed looks on the faces of staff members as Mrs. Robinson gave out the lists of advertisers. A 1'1lllTlOI'OUS'SitUElf1OIl occurred when the col- ors were to be selected. It started off with iive members wanting one color, and two, the col- ors that were finally chosen. But those two- With tact and diplomacy - managed to persuade three members of the opposition into voting for their choice. This proves that a little psychology and a lot of talk go a long way. The editor has a lot of responsibility in plan- ning, organizing, and supervising. One of her duties this year was the complete re-arrange- ment of the book. The staff Wanted this book to be different, so they decided to start with activ- ities and follow with sports and classes. So, if the Seniors feel deflated, it may be a consola- tion for them to know that We saved the best until last. Staff members came up With some zoonflerful ideas, but our ideas and finances didn't see eye to eye. However, we did splurge,' and put a bit of color into this 1956 book. Sometimes we wondered if our Work would EVER be done, especially on time. As April 1 1loomed up on the calendar, there was still copy ,to be Written. After a final mad dash to get copy completed, We saw if off to Clearfield with sighs of relief and settled back to Wait for delivery Jtime-and another mad rush!

Eros 1955 flaofdaf Slam On August 18 a squad of 50 boys appeared at the stadium for varsity football practice. Twelve of these-Mazutis, M c C r a c k e n, Crudi, Davis, Haines, Paraska, Edgar, Eakin, Naser, Booker, Comfort, and jackman were returning lettermen. In charge of the boys were Head Coach Emil Dup- ke, ably assisted by Mr. Eros, Mr. Herron, Mr. Rodjom, and Mr. johnson.

Roc lfLlf1fL!lfL6Llf'g the close of the season, the record stood at seven Wins, and two losses. For the first time since 1932, a captain, Bill Mc- Cracken, was designated by the returning letter- men to lead the team through the season. The tirst thriller against Canonsburg wasnt de- cided until the final Whistle, although Washington led in the second half by a score of 13 to 12. In the waning moments Ed Jackman crashed over for the touchdown to put the game 'ion' ice. R IM F or the second straight week-end, VVashington won its game in the final half minute, as Mazutis tallied a touchdown against Connellsville with 28 seconds to play. This was no place for a person with a weak heart! The traditional meeting of Trinity and Washing- ton was a close one, until Bookeris two touchdowns turned the tide in favor of the Little Prexies. Both teams were hampered by a steady rain and cling- ing mud. Sparked by the fine running of Leroy Booker, Washington dominated the entire game as they defeated Monongahela 20-0. Coach Dupke cleared the bench and inserted substitutes in droves. A strong Mt. Lebanon team which later played in WPIAL competition struck quickly on offense and handed the Little Prexies their first set-back of the season, 12-7. Naser was responsible for the lone touchdown scored by Washington. Postponed from Friday until Monday because of weather conditions, the Uniontown game was a real heart-breaker. Scoreless until the last two minutes, the Raiders made the only touchdown to win 7-0. Obligingly, after a poor showing at Uniontown, Washington won its next game with Penn Township by 21-7, and went on the next week to defeat the Scarlet Hurricane of New Castle 21-O. This was the first time since 1931 that Washington had de- feated New Castle. Final game of the season - Donora - and Wash- ington had every sort of discouraging situation to face. But the never-say-diei' Little Prexies proved their worth and came out with a 27-25 score, with Booker scoring the winning touchdown in the last four minutes of play.

In the opening game of the season, they beat Brownsville 35-0. The next game, against Monongahela, showed a final score of 46-6. Baldwin became the next victim, 19-0, and the iinal game of the season -with Union- town-was won 26-6. Many of the Reserves played in varsity competition as well. SEASON SCORES Wash High .... .....

When basketball and wrestling s eas 0 n rolled around, they were much in evidence in the gym.

Veteran starters averaged 5 ft. 9 in., with only one six- footer available for action. In pre-league games, the varsity Won from Donora, California, Mononga- hela, and Scott, and lost to Duquesne, Farr-ell, Uniontown, and Monessen Ca team We were to meet later in the WPIAL play-offs.j Entering league competition after Christmas va- cation, Washington's iirst victory was over Dormont on the home court. Canonsburg and Burgettstown then fell the victims of the Wash High strength. Anyone present at Trinity High will long re- member the battle on Trinity's postage-stampv Hoor. Until the final whistle, it was anybody's game - with Wash High emerging the victor, 59-54. Washingtonis first defeat in league competition since 1949 came at the hands of Dormont. This broke a winning streak of 74 consecutive league games. From then on through the remainder of the sea- son, the Little Prexies were undefeated, winning over Waynesburg, Mt. Lebanon, Canonsburg, Bur- gettstown, and Trinity. Again We were WVPIAL Section 4 Champions for the seventh time since 1949, and were on our way to the Pitt Field House. Saturday, February 25 found NVashington slated to play Monessen. The game lead exchanged a number of times, with NVashington rallying in the 4th quarter to score 12 points. However, this rally wasnit sutlicient to top Monessen, and the Grey- hounds won 63-60.

In early fall you many hear a chorus of school cheers echoing through the halls. Investigating closer, youill find a group of junior High girls and Sophomores practicing furiously before the annual tryouts. Then, before an assembly, the various girls prove their abilities to lead cheers. After suspense-laden moments, there are shouts of glee or moans of despair as the Winners are announced. Then begins the flurry of practice before the first football game. With boundless enthusiasm and school spirit they help to cheer our teams to victory. 1--,-- 1 'Ii L JUNIOR HIGH 'E CHEERLEADERS 7 Left to right: S Super, Y. Son- 1 son, I. Smith, C.

Despite the success of Springer, Pettit, Roden- ski, and Swaggard, YVash High lost by a score of 16 to 30. Our next match was more successful, as we tan- gled w' h Uniontown. After a close struggle, the Littl 'xies emerged with a victory of 23-22. VVaynesburg was more than a match for the Mou- setis boys in their first home showing. Swaggard, Dasta, Pettit, and Bryant won decisions, but Waynesburg trounced Washington 12 to 30. january 17 was a night marked by victory for VVash High when we clashed with Chartiers on our home mats. john Rodenski pinned his man. Chuck Springer won by forfeit, and four other NVashington boys won decisions. The final score was 23-20. A tense moment - and from the looks on the faces of the wrestlers, the battle isn't go- ing in their favor. The usually strong Canonsburg team met defeat at the hands of the Little Prexies. Harry Springer, jack Pettit, and jimmy Swaggard all pinned their men, which greatly boosted our score toward the 27-19 victory. Jefferson was undaunted by our two previous wins and fought hard to come out on top with a score 15 to 27. The major powerhouse of Trinity overcame Wash High with a 15-31 score. However, Rodenski and Bryant both pinned their opponents. On the second meeting with Burgettstown, a dif- ferent tale was told. Although Harry Springer had the only pin, we came oft with a 22-21 win. At VVaynesburg, the boys vindicated themselves by wins on the part of Swaggard, Pacilla, Dasta, and Pettit, and pins by Bryant, H. Springer, and Grudi. Final score: 27-18. Wash High bowled over Claysville on our mats by a 39-12 score. Chartiers got back at VVashington for their form- er win by defeating us 18-30. Crain won his match and Steve Dasta and Harry Springer did likewise by pins in the 2nd and 3rd periods, respectively. The return match with our rival, Trinity, was not so bitter as the first. The score was 18-20 which showed that the Mousetis-coached boys had im- proved greatly in the last four matches. In the final match of the season, Wash High tangled with Canonsburg, and avenged an earlier loss by a 28-12 win.

This or-- ganization is to promote good sportsmanship in all athletic contests, and to give recognition to boys who have made a good showing in some sport. This year, the club under the guidance of Coach Herron, carried out its project of the year -that of placing individual record boards in the ground floor hall, as a lasting testimonial to those athletes who have achieved an enviable record in sports. The vearis activities for the W Club con- clude with a picnic in early Iune. 83 ' Q V f , 'Nx C Ogg 4x . fx o 5-X gb ti!-s'?l'M f J A year of bewilderment, joy, sadness, and fun.

Like the West Pointer, he must take all advice, bow to the upperclassmen, and wait for the day when it is his to administer the punishment to the newly arrived feather-brained Sth grader.

He is now a well- established part of WVash High, and looking for- ward eagerly to the glamor and glitter of the next three years. This year has been filled with prog- ress and achievement. He has joined clubs and activities, been initiated into Senior Band, and participated in sports. He has had the first intro- duction into the mysteries of science, the initial plunge into the Khic, haec, liocv of Latin, the struggle with factoring Xi 1'-Yi' in algebra, and the memories of English literature and grammar. He has come a long way as new fields of history, literature, science, and the arts have opened their doors to him.

As sophomores, the Class of 1958, has been PH M RE marching together for two years, and at last, they are getting in step. Many have selected the clubs they hoped to join, or the sport in which they wished to participate. At last a permanent homeroom was assigned, and there was more association with upperclassmen-in c l a s s e s. sports, and activities. This year a schedule of subjects was prepared to serve as a guide for the Hnal years.

We can now look back with pride and satisfaction to the place we have made for ourselves at Wash High. From the very beginning, we plunged actively into any organi- zation and school activity open to us. Remember back four years to that warm Septem- ber afternoon in 1952 when we heard Mr. Lowry talk about 'gouri' school and its opportunities? We walked out of that huge auditorium and wandered around the halls -into classrooms, where soon, we would learn that new subjects - new opportunities -were opening to us -where weid meet new teachers C imagine having a man for a teacher af- --. 7 41 ,,.-v- Left to right: John Bisher. Linda French, Ioan Bryant, john Nicolella ter seven years of womenlj and make new friends from the other Eve elementary schools of NVashing- ton. Yes, these were new experiences for a bewil- dered Sth Grader, who had been hampered some- what by routine and regimentation to suddenly find new freedom. Bridging a gap from childhood to maturity-from the sheltered security of the grade school, we soon leamed to accept new re- sponsibilities in clubs and activities. At the close of the year we chose American Legion Award win- ners - Sandra Burgess, Sandra Elias, Mary Ann Os- so, john Nicolella, Iames Tennant, and NVilliam Taylor. 1955 Prom Candids N 1 , J Nominees for the otlices of sec- retary and treasurer of the Jun- ior Class are presented to the class before voting. It didift take long for us to know that studying must be our chief pastime. New subjects - algebra, science, health- required exacting hours of night- work. Ninth grade opened still further doors to activities. Many of the band members were initi- ated into Senior Band and went on the band buses to football games. That year, too, Washington went to the Field House to play Braddock, Home- stead, and Sharon in the WPIAL basketball elim- inations. A Sophomore year brought added responsibilities. Competition was getting stronger, but through cooperation, the sophomore was beginning to learn how to work with others. Finally the greater part of our high school train- ing is over. Now we are the Class of '57. We had learned to know our classmates, and were now ready to choose our Top Brass -the oilicers who would lead us over the rough spots and down the aisle to our graduation. We chose John Nicolella, president, John Risher, vice president, Linda French, secretary, and Joan Bryant, treasurer. This year for the first time, an advisory committee of the Junior home room teachers will serve as group aclvisersv to the class. Immediately we set to work making plans for our Junior Prom - the Spring Pageant. As Juniors we chose the May Queen, a senior -Janie Witzel- ing - and as her 12th grade attendants - Bonnie Jo Cousins and Nancy Elliott. To represent the juniors, Linda French and Phyllis Zullo were elected. Sally Scott and Carole Beatty represented the sopho- mores, Marjorie Brooks and Joyce Smith, the 9th grade, and Carol and Geraldine Frank, the 8th grade. The date for the Prom was set - May 4. It was a typical Junior Prom. Everyone was there, and as the couples swayed dreamily to the soft music, one could look back with memories on a year filled with fun. There is still another fun-iilled year before grad- uation becomes a reality. Looking back, we think of days that had no particular meaning at the time, but now are treasured memories. omior rom ommiffeed , DECORATION COMMITTEE Lucipda Hart k TICKET COMMITTEE I Caro Knestric r B . , Cl ' John Risher, General Chairman Richm-L1 Pacilla lo Esnclgqgijswegurnlan Iufmilia IUTk0VSkY, Chairman Frieda Thompson, Chairman R050 Arm Cimiflo William Bruno Mary Colbert Carol Dupke Lewis Miller Robert Hartman Jean Romboski, Chairman Chetty Mastroianni Becky Burke ,John Freeman Patty Popeck William Taylor Judith French, Chairman Sandra Elias Frank Grudi William Easingwood Arthur Ferrell Judy Fields Edwin Rothermund Donald Spragg Phyllis Zullo ORCHESTRA COMMITTEE John Nicolella, Chairman Linda French ATTENDANTS Linda F rcnch, Chairman Phyllis Zullo 97 Robert Hott Ruth Johnston Gary Marshall James Tennant Guy Tucci FACULTY COMMITTEE Mrs. Katharine Boyles Miss Helen Bromley Miss Dorothy Bryson Miss Alice Drake Miss Elizabeth Hamilton Mr Gaylord Hartman Miss Teresina Marino Miss Sarah McEnruc 'Wig' Z' l V 'f7,-r Fam -' 1-1 ' ' - -' - '1 f, 112. 1 V I fall ' 1' T iQ ' .

's C p I Y 72 F ' I'm sure every Senior at one time or another asks himself Is it really possible that I am almost ready to graduateiyi We've marched a long way, and Iinally have reached the end of the line. ,Way back when we were still the babies of the school, We tottered around reading numbers on the backs of doors, trying to find our classes, bumped into upper classmen in the halls, giggled when a senior condescended to speak one word to us, and ran up the DOWN stairs, and down the UP stairs. That same year we elected Mary Ann Belcastro, Carolyn Burgess, joseph Dudley, Cathy French, james Hackney, and Robert Smith as American Legion Award winners. Ninth grade woke us up -a little-and we began to realize that we had to make some decis- ions, especially about setting up our schedules for high school. WVe started mixing with the other kids and good times really began. Tenth grade rolled around all too soon and we found out we had to get down to brass tacks and study. We caught the 'iclub fevern and began to join into extra-curricular activities. 102. I l x l as r A . V .1 Q, . SENIOR OFFICERS Jim Bnllotta, Janie Wfitzeling, Bob Davis, Cathy French We were draftedv into our junior year with a Hurry of events to look fonvard to. c'Up in the ranks were our officers to guide us through our two final years: lim Bullotta, president, Bob Davis, vice president, Janie IVitZeling, secretary, and Cathy French, treasurer, and Miss Crable and Mr. Hartman as advisers. The highlight of the year was our junior Prom Isle of Paradisev with its dreamy Hawaiian theme. And now, at last, we've reached the zenith of our high school life - our Senior year! Dash here -rush there -hustle everywhere Cwhew! . . . better catch my breath! . . . that's what this year has been like. Big things to decide-class colors, pale blue and black- name cards, and senior pictures. Clyll give you one, if you'll save one for mell Our hilarious play 'iBuy jupiter went over with a BANC! Our last football game, basketball game. and wrestling match were soon only memories. XVe,ll surely miss the good times at our Alma Mater, but we all have something to look forward to: col- lege, a job, marriage, or the service. May and Iune and graduation night were just around the corner with Class Night, May 25, Bac- calaureate, Iune 3, and Commencement, June 4. Jill Faust, Cathy French, Margaret Langfitt, Ceorgette Morris, Carol Parr, and Robert Smith represented us as commencement speakers.

Drylie, C Courtwright. on on ifer y Jr Bunnies generally donit talk, but in the hilarious performance of Buy Iupiterv on November 22, there was an exception to this rule. Macyls toy cle- partment was the ideal place for the antics that took place, when Bruce Peck CWillie Schollaertj took charge and Hrecl the toy manager, Kay, por- trayed by Pat Drylie. Her teen-age sister, Betty fl-Ielen Gottshallj met and fell in love with joe, played delightfully by jim Bullotta. As the play begins, rabbits are ordered, sold, and then trouble comes on the scene. ln conclusion, Mr. Ioyce fDon- ald Anchors? tells Kay to get to work and every- thing works out for the best. Every play must have a director, and Mr. Gay- lord Hartman was responsible for this production of Buy jupiter , and for many Wash High plays of past seasons. Much credit goes also to the aback- stage crevvv who saw to the stage settings, lighting, and the public address system. 0l4fLlflfL8lfLC8lf1fLQlfLf To many Seniors, Commencement means the end. It is the end of their high school education - the end of their childhood. But to others, it is only the beginning. New and even greater events lie ahead. Twelve years have been spent learning, preparing. Now, as the Seniors start the solemn march to their graduation, they are serious, digni- fied. As the class is seated, the oflicers and speakers mount the steps to the stage. The theme of the Commencement 'iOf This We Are Proud is based on the subject of Americas heritage from other nationalities. The speakers -honor students from the class -have worked long and hard to at- tain this honor of representing the class. Scholarship awards are announced, the Bausch and Lomb science awards are pre- sented. This is a time of varied emotions. There is the excitement and suspense of the days beforehand, then a feeling of sadness creeps in -not enough to erase the joy of accomplishment- but enough to make everyone stop and remember. As parents and friends look down on the class, they wonder what the future holds for each graduate. Some will continue their studies at colleges and universities and he- come the teachers, scientists, lawyers, doc- tors, and engineers of tomorrow. Others are already equipped to step into the busi- ness world as stenographers, secretaries, bookkeepers, and receptionists. Some of the boys are entering the Armed Services to do their duty for their country. The theme of the speeches reflects the feelings of the parents - of this we are proudlv It will be a different world from the one they are leaving - but a world of prom- ise and hope. Commencement doesn't mean the End, it means the Beginning. .H Nr fs- H31 1 , y X. .'1'r2 'g- S, V . p .-. jfw my 148814, AM!
