CLASS HISTORY I'm Pete Silk, formerly the greatest race horse Windsor ever knew. The Sage Park Stable fire, in 1940, ended my racing days, but my spirit stands today. Now my tastes have turned from track events to school events, and I have watched with interest the groups of colts - pardon me, students - as they pursue their scholarly careers. The Class of.'l956, the first class to complete four years at the new Windsor High School, has been my special interest. As they have trotted, cantered, and finally gal- loped toward their finish line, they have made a great record. The year is 1952, the date September 7, the place, the brand new Windsor High School on Capen Street. As the class rounded the first-year turn, it was organized into a number of small groups, each headed by a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer. Presiding over all the groups was Mona Woods. Presidents of the groups were: David Delaney Jacqueline Evans Daniel Martino Elizabeth Mieckowski Vice-Presidents: George Ostendorf Roland LaRoche Gerald LaFleur Constance Clark Secretaries: Walter Yuscavitch Joan Rostek Judith Hayden Carol Thone Treasurer: John Fullano Student Council: Mona Woods David Delaney Jacqueline Evans Daniel Martino Because the building was not complete, half-day sessions were held the first two months.

Although the senior year is closing, the most exciting part of the race is still ahead for the Class of 1956. Graduation is first, leading by one-half stride, with Opportunity Knocking second. Coming up the stretch one stride behind Opportunity Knocking, is College. Challenging for third is Service Boy. Coming down to the wire neck and neck are Graduation and Opportunity Knocking, and across the finish line for a photo finish is Graduation. It was a great race and a great class, and I wish it the best of luck in the future -- Pete-Silk.
