WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE The year 1956-57 was much like any other year. It could not easily be categorized, nor could it be character- ized by any one particular event. It was a multitude of things--football games—homecoming dance—first snowfall—learning—forgetting—tests—spring— prom —picnics—pleasures—a flurry of studies—winners or losers--caps and gowns--the brief sadness of parting. The final weeks have approached, gladly for most, too quickly for many seniors.
