One-two-mm-m. Look, we're all herel Goody, what say we plan a dance ? Let's. l can remember my first dance hereg it was at the freshman reception: boy, we were sure scared: they had us lined up on the stage. Yeahl An when l looked below and saw those big fellows, my heart sank. l'he greenness finally wore off us. Sure we blossomed forth with a couple of real good dances. l always gut on the cleanup committee. YVell, the girls got all the work at candy sales. No-yes.it was our sophomore year we had a play. 'Not Quite Such a Goosef Sure enough, down at the theatre. Ir was a clever little play. YVe certainly went in for social activities that year-dances, candy sales. lVe even had a food sale, as l recall. VVe put in P-L-enty of work preparing for the Prom. Prom! Uhl the grand times we had in our Junior year. XVi1l you ever forget the pay program? That was pretty good. VVe had Santa 'n' everything. April l ool's dayflacky Day. Sure, we gave a Carnival, and everything was a penny. l bet you forgot we sold magazines. Say. we sure did. Then prom-the Lake pavillion was decorated beautifully that night. Three years of hard earningsgand all spent in one nightln It was perfect. though. l think we have accomplished a lot this year: leaving this bench. First seniors to eyer leave a gift. But that isn't all. VVe are the first class to graduate in caps and gowns. First in caps, first in gowns, and first in the memory-aw, nuts. U.K., witty. VVell, not braggin', but seven of us are on the executive council. L'And look at the sports boys we produced. 'lYes, and another thing, both editor and assistant editor of the Hilltop News are seniors. Please don't forget the senior play, 'The lmportance of Being Earnestf It certainly was a credit to the class. Not boasting any, but without a doubt it was the cleverest. wittiest play I ever ii it t. 4. 1. 4. 1. i. A. as it if .1 4. Every member of the cast did splendidly, too. VVell, well, my little children, does that conclude your accomplishments l'm here to say l'll never forget the Junior-Senior swim. You w0uldn't, pig. Anyway, l'll never forget my high school daysg we've all worked hard, but look at all the glorious times we've had, and all we have achieved. I guess we'll all agree with you there: the most beautiful chapter in our lives is closed, but the golden memories will live forever. l81
