BUT POP, I'M TOO YOUNG FOR ENG- LISHV'--Little Patty Angeloni, flve-month- old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Angeloni, doesnlt seem to go for the idea of studying English at this stage of the game. Her fa- ther, a 9th grade English teacher, tries to impress on her how much fun there is in studying grammar. Result: Baby Patty won as usual and a rattle took the place of War- riner's Handbook of English! Patty was one of the seven children born to the families of faculty members this year. RARE MOMENT OF RELAXATION-Mr. Curcio, who served as Jun- ior Class adviser, and his attractive wife, Bonnie, take a breather from the hectic pace around prom time. His helpfulness and patience in guiding the always active Junior Class through the year, climaxed by a never to be for- gotten prom, made him one of the most respected and well liked teachers at West Deer.
