gn Retrospect . As FREsHMEN the majority of us were not unfamiliar with the complexities of pink slips, blue slips, green slips. We had been in the building the previous year, but now we were a part of Woodbridge High School. The Kickoff Dance, an undefeated freshman football team Ca sure sign of future greatnessj, and fine fresh- man basketball and baseball squads nurtured in us a boundless school spirit. A year of singing in the audi- torium and some homework on the side culminated in the highlight of the seasonjs social calendar, the Fresh- man Party.

Yet our year was not entirely a series of exciting social events, for, with term papers in English, library assignments, bibliographies, newspapers, and important television programs, we had our fill of intellectual pur- suits. Our academic leaders were inducted into the Na- tional Honor Society, we ordered our class rings, and we realized that, since we no longer were lined up to select our dancing partners, we were big girls and boys. In not too many months, we would be rehearsing for graduation,
