CLASS POEM
 

As we leave dear Warwick High School--
The Class of Sixty-Two--
We are Joyful, thrilled, and eager;
Yet, full of sadness, too.

We remember all the friendships
We made throughout the years;
All the dances, plays, and parties;
The games and all the cheers.

We remember our advisers
Who led us day by day--
Ever willing, kind, and patient,
Guiding us o'er life's way.

Our happiness and our sorrows,
Our hopes and our despair,
All will never be forgotten--
They're memories that we share.

And now, as we all look forward
To use the lessons learned,
We are led by God's strong guidance
To futures we have earned.

                        --Rose Marie Grabill

CLASS HISTORY
 

A new building, new classmates, and new routines were all part of the adventures we faced as members of the seventh grade. Few of us will ever forget Mrs. Kauffman's English classes, in which we received a grammatical background that was of valuable use throughout high school. A trip to Millersville for swimming and a class party were the featured activities of the year.

During eighth grade our general store of knowledge was increased by a diversified curriculum. By the end of the year, we had picked the courses for our last four years in high school; thus, the first important step in plotting our futures was taken. At the Awards Assembly two of our classmates Doris Peters and Ken Stark, received the American Legion Award.

"David Copperfield" and "Treasure Island" were among the required readings of our freshman year. After being initiated we feared only the unknown--speech class. Latin, general science, and Algebra I were subjects with which to be reckoned by us, the lowly freshmen.

"Et tu, Brute!" This and many other quotations from "Julius Caesar" remain in the memories of our sophomore year. Biology was a required subject, and all of us awaited with eagerness those once-a-week dissecting periods. We held our dance, "Stairway to the Stars," and as usual, our profits were just enough to "break even!" We also received our class jackets and ordered our school rings.

Mr. Male's patient instruction helped to provide most of us with our drivers' licenses. "Autumn Leaves," our Junior Cotillion, was a successful effort for the class. The selling of boxes, boxes, and more boxes of candy enhanced our treasury and ruined our shoes during the junior year. Much hard work, considerable time, and outstanding effort went into the production of our play, "Father of the Bride," which was another hit for the Warwick stage. The Dutch Town and Country Inn was the setting for our Prom, "Over the Rainbow," which was indeed a memorable event for all who attended.

Our senior year started off with a "bang," for busy rehearsals and planning were the forerunners of our senior play, "The Man Who Came to Dinner." To improve our financial status we sold peanuts (It was rather embarrassing when the neighbors began to slam their doors in our faces when we appeared with something more to sell!). The school really came alive with our active and enthusiastic campaigning for the Youth Day in Government elections. Despite the hard work by both parties, the PONY party buried the POPS candidates in the election. Our Senior Cabaret, "April Love," the Prom, and a glorious trip to New York City provided a memorable ending to our high school days.

Our Class now faces a new and unknown adventure; however, the experiences and knowledge from high school will truly aid us in fulfilling adequately our roles in life.
