THE LAST TIME I SAW WEST DEER 1 lLyrics by Barbara Bnrdckl it 1 K VERSE I: .- , - These last days here at West Deer bring mem'ries from the past. How happy were those football games, oh how we wished they'd last. - Our howling parties showed hm-, skill, the scores that gave us fame. ' - The rhythm of those bouncing pins with each und every game. ' 'V Among these walls so stately, hide joys and heartaches, too. The gaiely nf Senior days, such happy times were true. - - - Yes, thunk you. Alma Mater, You've helped make us succeed. The blessings ynn've bestowed on us are free from want and need. VERSE ll: That last time we saw West Deer her heart was warm and gay. We heard the laughter of her heart in every kind of way. We passed the same old lockers. which we had passed for years. The rhythm of their noisy elank was music to our ears. The last time we saw West Deer her rooms were dressed for sprin Although we wished to start again. we knew what May would hrin The last time we saw West Deer her heart was warm and guy. No mutter how they change her we'll remember her that way. 24 QI. Robert R. Beitko Peter R. Biagi

n Class of ,60 It's been said that even back in first grade future officers of the Class of '60 were already supervising recess activities, and the future honor students were juggling encyclopedias while the others struggled with Dick and ,lane stories. Well, maybe those are tales, but this is fact-the Class of 1960 demonstrated an extremely high level of leadership and a better than average scholastic ability. The academic talent reached a summit never before attained when two class members, Richard Crandy and Sandy Massimino, were admitted to the University of Pittsburgh after completing their junior year in high school. Sandy and Dick were among the 13 chosen out of 130 in the county who qualified. The two West Deer mathematics majors upheld even the highest expec- tation by zooming through their freshman college year with high honor grades. It was a phenomenal scholas- tic triumph for the two scholars, for the class, and for West Deer High School. Joe Halovanic ranked as top student in the Class of '60. He and the other three top ranking students, Bill Capello, John Uchic, and Pat Stanish, tackled every difficult course the scientific bloc of study offered. Becoming a member of National Honor Society is another scholastic prize. Accepted in their junior year, an exceptionally superior honor, were Grandy, Mas- simino, Capcllo, Halovanic, Uchic, and Zonarich. Class otiicers Stan Brudney, Leah Bryan, Dee Char- ney, and Audrey Evanega had a whale of a job. Their handling of all the complex senior year affairs deter- mined whether the class would be remembered as the one that soared or the one that sunk. As one affair after another was chalked off in successful fashion, it became apparent that this wasn't an earthbound class - especially with a live-wire, dedicated sponsor like Mrs. Schuster. F1 BRIGHT FUTURE AHEAD - Sandy Massimino and Dick Grandy brought fame to themselves and to their Alma Mater this year by achieving phenomenal academic success in the University of Pittsburgh early admittance program. They went directly to their freshman college year after 11th grade in high school. Both completed their first year at Pitt with high honor grades. L. 5. ? 137 A A 4-.. .., ' .Kp X M. . C..
