TWO PRESIDENTS MEET-President John F. Kennedy extends congratulations to West Deer's Jim Zachousky for winning the Junior Class presidential elections. Well, we're not sure what was said at the moment this photo was taken by Coalagra camera- man Tom Grifiith during a student press conference with President Kennedy in Pitts- burgh, but it must have been a mighty big thrill for Jim to meet and talk to the Presi- dent of the United States. Top news in the nation this year was Kennedy's victory in the Presidential elections, something many people thought impossible in this country. lt Became oz Partzcularly Wonderful Year Because o . New History-Making Happenings EVALUATION OF WEST DEER HIGH- Dr. Casile chats with Dr. Paul Shaffer and Dr. Frank Oliver, chairmen of the evalua- tion committee that surveyed the instruc- tional program and facilities of the school.

THE HOMER THAT SHOOK WEST DEER HIGH-If you were around at 3:36 p.m., Oct. 13, 1960, you probably were celebrating as wildly as these people watching the TV in the faculty room. Mazerowski had just homered to win the first World Series in 35 years for the Pirates. The miracle of miracles had happened -and WOW what a feeling! ! PROUD AND GRATEFUL-There were 123 gradu- ates this year at West Deer and all truly proud to re- ceive their diploma. However, probably more thrilled than anyone else was Giovanna Montorfano, the first foreign exchange student to be brought to West Deer. Her vitality and enthusiasm endeared her to all, and her presence made it an especially wonderful year around West Deer High. She was indeed a credit to Italy, the country she represented. CRAZY WEATHER-More weather records were set in 1960-61 than in any one previous year it seemed. Snow fell for the first time on October 2, believed to be the earliest snowfall on record. The last snowfall lingered well into the spring months, with a snow shower coming even as late as June 3. The scene below was on Friday, Feb. 4, when a sur- prise snowstorm Cthey were all surprisesll blanketed West Deer with 12 inches of snow. The last load of students, the Shepard Road and Glasgow Road areas, didn't get home until after 6:30 p.m.
