Eighth grade class in Southampton. Eighth grade party in Centennial, Jane, Liz, and Maizie, The Three Innocents. CLASS HISTORY The start of our Freshman year was spent in getting acquainted with one another and experiencing our first taste of high school life. We were the charges of Miss Bartirome, Miss Blume, Mrs. Selgrath, Mrs. .Bartoe, Mr. Bertz, and Mr. Shupp, and numbered over 150. George David filled the office of president, Chip Klinger the vice president, Jane Herwig kept the minutes, and Larry Keck handled the money. Our first attempt at sponsoring a dance was the Blue Moon. Lonesome cowboy, Frank Severn, re- turned to the U. S. and us from Texas. The T on his Drum Major uniform naturally stands for Texas. Johnny still carried Mr. Dux' brand: Squirrel. Al- though we anxiously waited to enter Tennent in the fall, most of us hated to leave Upper Southamp- ton-Warminster High. In tenth grade our class was divided into five sec- tions with Mrs. Bartoe, Miss Grant, Mrs. Herwig, Mr. Price, and Mr. Wideman as our homeroom teachers. Bob Burns presided over the class assisted by Vice President Kathy Sinkler, Secretary Bill Heaton, and Treasurer Rae Leader. Five members of our class portrayed A Day in School for the annual Young Pennsylvanians Radio Program. Our dance, Spring Fantasy, was finally held after all the snow melted. The school spirit for our new school, William Tennent, was very evident with five of our girls on the cheer- leading squad. We were the first ones to use the new biology lab . . . how Judy loved that dissecting!!! The commanders of the eleventh grade troops were Miss Blume, Miss Grant, Mr. Rice, Mr. Rittenmeyer, and Mr. Schurmann. Chief Warrant Officer Junior Grade Klinger. Efficient Pat Rhoads was ready with the minutes at the sound of Treasurer Bob Burns' bugle. After a few days of school the class met a flash from the South: Pas Quinones and his two sisters, Boo and Tooti. These three added some extra life to our class for five months. When they moved, our class returned to normalcy. The theme of our class dance this year was Janvier a Paris. We gave two one-act plays with Mary Ann starring in one as Candy and Neuk in the other as Willie Velvet. New romances blossomed with our trip to the United Nations, as Mrs. Rhoads wore out everybody's feet but her own. Our chemistry class produced the second coming of Lavoisier in John S. Ervin, and the lab still has marks on the wall where 'Terry Kufen's experi- ment backfired. Class picnic in Warminster.
