CLASS HISTORY Because we found Wilson huge when compared to our respective gram- mar schools, we wandered about aimlessly for the first few weeks in this vast maze of rooms. After a while, however, we settled down and began to show evidence of the leadership that has been the outstanding characteristic of our class during our stay here. The following students were elected officers of the Freshman Class: President, Dave Conroy; Vice President, Nancy Byerly; Secretary, Marry Ellen Coleman; Treasurer, Don Pehota; and Student Council Representative, Joan Calhoun. We held the annual Freshman Frolic on October 27 with Dave Conroy and Dee Dee” Daniels acting as co-chairman. The dance, with the help of Miss Alice Dempsey, Miss Gregg, and Mrs. Gaffney, our faculty advisors, was a huge success. We elected the following people to the National Junior Honor Society: Bennie Patten, Camille Salonia, Stan Czuba, Bill Daley, Dee Dee Daniels, Gladys Kelsey, Phyllis Levin, Joseph Lomastro, Caroline Kutzner and Betty Milardo. These students were in addition to Pat Defrance, Dave Conroy, Steve Gunter, Joan Calhoun, Nancy Byerly and Richard Kimball who had been elected while in the eighth grade. The class of '53 made a major contribution to the school assembly pro- gram by the presentation of the Nativity Play a few days before Christmas. We enjoyed many good dances, games, assemblies and plays during the remainder of the school year. After returning from a pleasant summer vacation, we prepared to em- bark on a very eventful sophomore year. We elected the folowing students as our officers. President, Bill Crusberg; Vice President, Pat Annino; Secretary, Pat Defrance; Treasurer, Bill Daley; and Student Council Representative, Joan Calhoun. Many of us were actively engaged in the school tableau observing the Middletown Tercentenary and we received much enjoyment from our efforts. Early in December the gym was gaily decorated with a wild west theme for the annual Sophomore Hop. Every sophomore attending was given the privilege of being a sheriff for the evening, each being presented with a gold sheriff's badge. During this year we branched out in our activities and joined various clubs and organizations. Also, many of our boys showed great promise in sports. This was the year (1950-51) that we captured third place in the C. C. I. L. Basketball Tournament. The following were elected to the National Junior Honor Society: Pat Annino, Carolyn Bielefield, Anna Mrozowski, Richard Seagrave, Elaine Wilson and Ruth Wrubel. As we began our Junior year, we at last enjoyed the privilege of being upper classmen. We chose the following students, in a very close election. 26
