SOPHOMCDRE CLASS Introducing the sophomore class of 1953 This, the largest class in senior high, ended the school year Iune of 1953 by electing the present officers for the following year. They were: president, Leonard Stept, vice-president, Vin- cent DeFrank, secretary, Eileen Vickroy, and treasurer, lane Gallagher. The home room presi- dents and representatives to council were Ron Marley, Barry St. Clair, and George Be-zek. The sophomore class was very Well represented in sports. The many names that were seen on the rosters included Vincent DeFrank, Barry St. Clair, Iim Hemphill, George Bezek, Ron Marley. Ron Koval, Don Koval, Ken Beatty, lay Demi, Herk Daley, George Griffith, Don Irwin, and Don Huston. The girls, too, held their own. Those engaging in intramurals were Donna Hincks, Marion Wood, Marcia Salem, Eileen Vickroy, lane Gallagher, Mary Alice Lawson, Dulcie Mulkey, Wanda Ober, and many others. Iane Gallagher represented the class on the cheerleading squad. The class also did very Well scholastically. Names that were seen frequently on the honor roll were Linda Watkins, Marion Wood, Iane Gallagher, Len Stept, Skip Picking, Barbara Bur- kett, Ioanne Casale, Kathleen Cunningham, Robert Glosser, Iim Hemphill, Mary Alice Lawson, Eileen Vickroy, and Steve Walling. Not only does the class have brawn and brains, but it also has talent. This was noticed in their wonderful assembly on Ianuary 31. Mr. Ackley was ably assisted in chorus by Marion Wood and Linda Watkins, who took turns accompanying the chorus. Oscar Zolbe and Ieff Hahn were two helpful members of the stage Crew. This year's activities were brought to a close by the sophomore dance which was in the spring. The guiding hands of the sophomore class belonged to Miss Allendorfer, Mrs. Wineman, Mrs. Good, Mr. Holman, and Mr. Sosinski. The class's ability to work well together and ac- complish things will be to their advantage in the next two years. We certainly wish them the best of luck.

The Iunior High Student Council under the able leadership of their advisor, Mr. Scott Brallier, and also that of Mr. james, the junior high school principal, completed the second year of its existence as the governing body of the junior high school. This year the group transacted a great amount of business. In addi- tion to having adult supervision the group was led by capable officers that did a fine job. lim Garrity conducted the meetings, Helen Vick- roy, substituted for the president When he was not able to attend the meetings. Susie OFFICERS-left to right-Dennis Zappa. treasurer: Sue Prlstow, - - - Secertary: lim Garrirv. president: Helen Vickroy. wire-president Prlstow Wrote the rnlnutesl and Den' nis Zoppa handled the finances. The council met Tuesday mornings throughout the year in the room formerly occupied by the school board secretary. Among the many things the council did in the year Was to set the date for the freshman party, and sponsor two gym dances. One of the gym dances was held on February twenty-third after the Westmont-Conemaugh junior high basketball game, and the other Was held after the Westmont-Ferndale high school basketball game on February fourth. Sue Pristow and Helen Vickroy were appointed to see that charters be placed in every homeroom in the junior high after each member of the homeroom had paid his necessary five cent dues. It was suggested that a column devoted to junior high school student body activities be placed in each issue of the Yodler. We hope that the junior High School Student Council that will be chosen in years to come will continue to follow the good work and fine example that was set forth by this year's group.
