O'Rourke is our Class historian, as he
has a HUGE collection of memorabilia going all
the way back to his early years at Fishinger.
He has also generously offered to contact as many
of our former teachers
as he can, and we hope that many of them will
be able to attend our reunion. Thank you,
Michael, for all your contributions and hard work!

an article from the 1966 Hastings student newspaper:
The
Cub Courier
Citizens Of The Month
by Judi Snedegar
The ninth grade citizens of the month are Donna
Sell, Denise Kontras, and Kim Booth.
Denise especially likes tennis and volleyball,
french fries and coke, English and home ec., Chad
and Jeremy and all their songs, sewing, talking
on the phone, and eating. She would like to pursue
a teaching career, most favorably in the field
of home economics. Besides being one of the co-editors
of the Cub Courier, Denise is actively involved
in G.A.A. and Y-Teens. Bugs and worms are her
pet peeves.
Attention
Jay Ball and Denny Dicke - you're mentioned
in this recollection, "The Burn," of
Michael O'Rourke's from the Herb Yenser Choir
Days!
Hey
Sports Fans - how about this March 20, 1969
UA
News article from Michael's collection
regarding the basketball team?This was
the game for which students paid 75 cents admission
to see the seniors battle it out with the juniors
and then watch the faculty hammer the WCOL
Lively Guys. Mentioned in the article: Neal
Billman, Marv Crosten, Jim Hamilton, our senior
team, and a bunch of WCOL guys , including "Mr.
X"? Our team, of course, is referred to as
"The muscle-laden youth." And
every ONE of them has remained buff and strong
for 35 years!
Here's
an article in the March 20, 1969 UA News
about the basketball
team, with photos of Dave Eschliman,
Jay Ball, and Denny Dicke.
Did
you go to Barrington? Maybe you had Mrs. Tudor
for fifth grade? She gave this
class roster to Ellen Isaly Clark a couple
of years ago; on it, she wrote what each student
had given her for Christmas. If you click the
photo on the left from 1999, you'll see Miss
Grace McKee on the left (first grade) and
Mrs. Neta Tudor on the right. Aren't they
lovely ladies? Sadly, both of these amazing teachers
have since passed away.
