CLASS HISTORY History repeated itself when the juniors descended upon the Gettysburg Battlefield in the spring of 556 as we engaged ourselves in various aversions of the Civil Wfar, snapped away miles of film, and dumped our friends in the Drop VVaste Here cans. At the end of the day the battlelines remained the same in spite of the fact that the weary Junior Class foot- soldiers beat a hasty retreat eastward along the Cet- tvsburg Pike toward Harrisburg. Slowly drifting into the warmer months, May the 12th to be exact, the class showed their consideration for their superiors and invited the seniors to the Jun- ior-Senior Prom at the Hershey Hotel. Wlith a setting of palms, sparkling fountains, colored lights, the punch bowl, Frank Taylor's music, and the numerous trips through the rose gardens made the night a happy one for the juniors of 57. Another year was ending and the road was grow- ing short. but the best was yet to come-our Senior Year. Realizing that our High School days were num- bered, we entered Vest Shore September 5, 1956 with a resolve to put our right foot forward and do our best to make this year the greatest ever. We began, under the guidance of lyir. Stum, our Class Dean, by choosing our leaders for this, our most important year. Ronald Raffensperger was elected President, round- ing out four years in this position, Keith Quigley- Vice-President, Emily Anderson-Secretary, Kathryn Goodall--Assistant Secretary, Nancy To LucefTreas- urer, and Beverly Cline---Historian. Our first money making project was the selling of Christmas cards, in the hope of adding a few digits to the class bank account. Our next project was the presentation of the Senior Class Play. Blix Co-Ed, under the able direction of Mr. Lawrence W'aite. Fol- lowing close on the heels of the Senior Play, the Christmas Play was presented in assembly under the direction of M1'. Hlilliamson. The Senior Class would like to extend their thanks for the patience and guid- ance of Mr, Waite and Mr. Williamson in the pres- entation of our plays. Between the Seniors' performances on the stage, however, we took time out for a little gathering of our 107 classmates on November 30. The crowd, the rec- ords, and the jeans were all a part of the Senior Party-Scruff Style. January 19 we probed into the Finer parts of our wardrobe, dressed in our best, and invaded Allenberry for our Senior Ball. Maynard McKissicik and his lively music along with Don Bowers and his fire- Hghting equipment made the evening an exciting one. After the Senior Ball, the students with an aca- demic mind settled down to another period of study with thoughts of college bouncing through their heads. The ideas weren't the only things bouncing around. Mr. Edwards. our patient guidance director, was doing some of his own bouncing as he was being hailed on his way from the classroom to his office and beseiged with questions by the prospective college student. To the business students, study also became a serious endeavor as thought turned to that first im- portant job. To the general students it would be the Army, Navy, or other branches of the Armed Forces. After College Board Exams were over and the Navy signs taken down. we had our last Class Party, March 8. enjoying one of the last get-togethers as a class for the year. At this time let us pause to remember and thank M1'. Paul Stum. our Class Dean. for his patience. leadership, and guidance throughout our Senior Year. NVe would also like to express our thanks to Mr. XVert, M1'. Hendricks. Mr. Edwards. Mrs. Brown. to the School Board and to each individual member of the faculty for the contribution they have made to our lives. As we go to press we are anxiously awaiting the Junior-Senior Prom. our class trip to New York City. Class Day, Baccalaureate, and the greatest event of allfCommencement. This event will mark for us the beginning of a new era. As we make our way into an uncertain world, we must rise to the challenges presented to us by the complexities of our modern civilization. We must never falter. We must step forward. always reaching for a goal that is just beyond our grasp. YYe must pro- fit by the mistakes of our predecessors and endeavor to promote peace and understanding in our world. If we meet this challenge squarely, it will be said of us that LWVITH THE ROPES OF THE PAST WE HAVE RUNG THE BELLS OF THE FUTURET BEVERLY CLINE
