Solemnity is the governing word at the annual out- door Memorial Day ceremonies. Norma Spangler and Pat Thoeny place traditional wreaths on the markers for the war dead of the two World Wars. I ze Reverence The notes of the bugle die away, and the student body stands in silence facing the Cass Street entrance, All heads bow as the Rev. Mark Andrews leads in prayer. As the warm sun shines down upon the ceremony, the choir sings God of Our Fathers. Donna Lintelman, a senior, speaks in solemn tribute to those Central students who gave their lives in the two World Wars. Then follow the majestic words of America, the Beautiful sung by the choir. Silently, the doors open, and L. C. boys march down the steps, to form a guard of honor, through which pass the flag and the color guard of L.C. boys lead the student body in the traditional seniors boys. They are followed by Pat Thoeny and Norma Spangler, dressed in traditional white, carrying the wreaths, which they place beside the two markers for Central's war dead. Taps sounds clearly in the silence. The color bearers march back with the L. C. boys falling in line behind. At the entrance they halt, while the student body joins in the pledge of allegiance. With the return of the flag to the building, the ceremony is over, and Central has once more paid tribute in its own always impressive and always beau- tiful observance of Memorial Day. Marching Band listens to instructions from Mr. Memorial Day parade. Baker after the Memorial Day ceremonies. RG- i .J Q :Maggie 12 -.' I Page 99
