OH, YOU BEAUTIFUL DOLL-That's the lullaby being sung by the Lions Club Minstrel Show end men to Mrs. William Palmer. No one will ever forget the rollicking stage debut of two famous West Deer faculty mem- bers in that show, Mr. Fortino, extreme left, and Mr. Marsili, second from left. Those two had 'em rolling in the aisles. Faculty THE CRUSHER f'Li'1 Georgel' Tarasovich, famous tackle of the Pittsburgh Steelers football team, capitalizes on his massiveness to josh Mr. Whartenby and Mr. Fortino prior to the start of a charity basketball game played here.

Personnel Mr. Reed Mr. Ekas MAINTENANCE TRANSPORTATION SUPERVISOR SUPERVISOR Efficient School Workers Keep West Deer Humming Maintenance men, cafeteria Workers, bus drivers, all join in one Way or another in adding to the proficiency of education for the youth of West Deer. The maintenance men and women are responsible for the saving of thousands of dollars to township tax- payers. Whenever something goes Wrong in the school plant, they usually can handle the situation without calling in high-charging service specialists. The transportation crew of Mr. Ekas won special praise this year. Even though snowfalls and below-zero Weather set all-time records, the bus drivers got through each early morning and afternoon-right on schedule. West Deer certainly is proud of all its personnel fam- ily. There just couldn't be more efficient or more con- scientious workers.
