JUNIOR CLASS The Junior Class did much this year to attain the status of the potential leaders

of D.H.S. The sale of magazine subscriptions, candy, and light bulbs resulted in two tremendous social successes. The Junior party, held early in December, had as its

theme "Club 62." A delicious smorgasbord meal highlighted the evening's activities. The members of the class were considerably pleased with their class rings, acquired last fall.

The prom, late in May, concluded the social calendar for the Juniors who look

anxiously forward to next year's activities as Seniors. Mr. Farley is the advisor.

SOCIETY

This organization is probably the most admired one in Dunkirk High School. It is composed of our more intelligent students, who have maintained a 90% average for two consecutive years.

The organization met once a month to discuss problems and plans which arose. This year they held their yearly dance, movie, and several candy sales for fund rais­ing projects.

STAGE CREW

The Stage Crew is one of the more ambitious clubs at Dunkirk High School. Under the able-bodied leadership and supervision of Mr. Frank LaPaglia and Mr. Robert Bernard, the industrious members of the Stage Crew helped make our Senior Play the success that it was.

With its capable members behind the scenes of most of our school activities, our assemblies, class nights, and concerts are sure successes.

S.P.Q.R. The purpose of the latin Club is to provide the latin students with a better

understanding and knowledge of the customs and lives of the ancient Roman people.

The Senate and the Roman people (S.P.Q.R.) gathered together at the monthly meetings. The Senate was composed of the officers who played the roles of the Roman lawmakers. After the initiation ceremonies, every member of the club became a full fledged Roman citizen.

Among other activities, the latin Club sold banners au.... 'llso picked grapes at the Bixby vineyard to raise money to cover the expense of the club.

FOOTBALL

The Dunkirk Maroon Marauders opened the

season by dropping their first encounter to Strong­

Vincent by a 33-13 margin. In the first league

game, however, Dunkirk showed some promise with

a 13-13 score against the Southwestern Trojans.

The Gowanda Panthers then became the first and

last victims of the Marauders by suffering a 25-6

deficit to our team.

The worst was yet unseen. The Marauders were downed in their next five games, first by our local

rival, the Mindszenty Monarchs, 25-0, then by the

Salamanca Warriors, 35-7, the Golden Falcons of

Falconer. 26-0, Warren 24-7, and finally by our

arch-rival, the Fredonia Hilltoppers, 26-0, in a real

heartbreaker. Thus Dunkirk's 1960 league record

stands at 1-3-1.

The Marauders did not come out on top in the win column, but perhaps in other ways, they did.

Only time will tell.

school spirit among its members. Under the skillful supervision of its advisors, Mrs.

Hegmann and Miss Salvatore, many playdays were scheduled throughout the year.

The "D" Club meets on the first Monday of every month and initiation was held

the members enjoyed an informative account of Douglas Kreider's trip to Europe.

An important event this year was the play-day which took place in March. Girls

from six area schools gathered in the gym for an evening of fun and refreshments. To climax a year of sports events, the senior members of the club were treated at

a banquet.

Our Marching Bond, the twirlers, and the Color Guard, brought fame not only

to themselves, but to our school, when they put on a spectacular half-time show at

the Houston-Buffalo Bill's Football Game at War Memorial Stadium in Buffalo.

The enthusiastic crowd enjoyed the precision drills and the intricate routines.

The entire performance was televised coast to coast bringing this talented group into the homes of millions of people.

This year the bond also planned a trip to the New York City area with a re­turn performance at Middletown.
