The community worked tor mony weeks prior to the big night to moke this the best one ever. Vincent Colombo ond Ann Woiohn were the co-choirmen ond they spent mciny o worried hour plcinning the progrorn tor the evening with Miss Armington. Fridoy, Mdrch 22, scivv mobs ot people, young cmd old, descend upon the school to sworrn through the hells. Once inside the door, one had no choice os to which wciy he wanted to go. lt was just step inside ond get shoved cilong. Lciughter wos the key- note ot the evening os people were pushed from booth to booth. At 9:30 ci donce was given, ot which time the royolty ot the evening vvcis onnounced. Bruce Miller, Mr. Mc- Vout, ond Jonet Weiss, Miss Soiree, were the lucky poir. By -llZ3O the school hod begun to cleor considerobly. Only Ann ond Vince were lett in ony con- dition to run ground the holls trying to collect proceeds ond see thot the build- ing vvcis cleoned. Everyone else hod either gone home or collcipsed. Since ticket toker Corole Loosemore vvouldn't occept younger brothers or sisters, these hoppy Seniors, Carol Lipscher, Morlene Linne, Bob Woitkus, ond George Kichukotf, had to bring some substitutes to get into the White Elephant dance.

The greater portion of the student body could always be found ice skating, tobog- ganing, or playing hockey. The boys played a tew rough games ot hockey at Snowden's pond. But, no matter how much we en- joyed the cold, it always telt good to sit near a big roaring tire and thaw out. How to get scorched toes in one easy lesson is demon- strated by this group ot cold skaters. Vieing for places near the tire are Marlene Gourlay, Ron Stapleton, Gary Apolskis, Bod Dougherty, and Myrna Rosenberg. After a long, hard day over a cold pond these girls, Sue Radigan, Kathy Finnerty, Leola Eklund, and Jo Ellen Stanton, are all set to drink some hot chocolate and have a real party. l 1 5

McVout Soiree This cute looking trio of Senior girls l?l, Marty Shanahan, Bobbie Dougherty, and Carol Lipscher, did a great iob of selling outside the Serior Room this year. Grunts aplenty were heard around the Indian Wrestling booth, as con- tests like the one Bill Brandvold and Mike Kertez are engaged in, raged throughout the evening. It looks as if Mal Starch, Mickey Shlens, is really testing that Shevlon lipstick that Carole Lipscher is wearing. lf you don't believe it, iust ask Tex Pinkledort, Bill Carter, the contestant in the booth. l f WWQ ,,,.40h.. l .2 , i fifrr.
