AS WE REMEMBER HIM-This photo is treasured at West Deer High School. It was taken by Mr. Angeloni, yearbook aclviser, iust as Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy flashed their familiar smiles and happily responded to a question from the West Deer delegation attending a student press conference during his campaign for the Presidency in 1960. This great man has passed, but he has left us a legacy of love, wit, kindness, strength, and courage. Our lives are fuller, richer, because we have lived in his time, known him, and responded to him. We, the students of West Deer High School, along with all peoples of the world who were scarred by this calamity, will not allow President Kennedy's challenge of self-sacrifice, unyielding service, and devotion to his country go unan- swered. Instead, our lives forever will be guided by his immortal message to us: Ask not what your coun- try can do for you, but what you can do for your country. 5cThe answers quick and keen, The honest look, The laughter, The love, They are gone. ll ll Dirge Without Music Edna St. Vincent Millay

Doman, William Rodger, Nelson Tonet, Louis Castello, John Makuta, Rob- Anniversary Year Observed by WD Administtrators In administrative ranks, this was the year when something started to give. Whether it would be good or bad was yet to be evaluated. First startling announcement was from the county which revealed that West Deer and East Deer would be merged into a single school unit. There also came an O.K. from the state to com- mence building ot a 7th-8th grade building which would temporarily alleviate the crucial overcrowd- ing in the high school. This was an anniversary year, too, for some School Board members and administrators. Mr. Castello, School Board president, marked his 25th year ot service to community as a member of the board. Mr. Burns, district superintendent, observed his 20th year as a school administrator here. Noteworthy, also, was the appointment ot a West Deer High School graduate, Nelson Tonet, to the School Board. He became the youngest mem- ber of the group. AT YOUR SERVICE-The indispensable people of the West Deer school district are the administrative secretaries: Miss Lawrence, Miss Broglia, Mrs. Collier, and Mrs. Kondrak.
