Graduation of the Class of January 1939 The theme of the january Commencement program was Pioneering It was devel- oped by a committee of eight. The commit- tee was as follows: Lucille Babcock, Harold Brown, Margaret Fredenburg, Woodrow Hayes, William Larrabee, Albert Page, Ray- mond Peet and Beatrice Stanton. The program was in the form of panto- mimes portraying several different fields of school activities. The first was in the field of music. In this scene, the A Cappella Choir sang a group of songs. The second scene represented the forms of sports which are taught in Health Education. This scene was divided into two parts, one for the boys and one for the girls. The third scene rep- resented North's school publication, The Wampum. This showed at one side of the stage, representatives taking pictures and the equipment used by the photography classes, while on the opposite an editorial group worked with copy. A fourth scene demon- strating expression was gt presentation of a brief part of Seventeen by two of the principal characters. Over 70 members of the class participated in the program. The last scene represented the tradition of this new school. It was illustrated by Raymond Peet who took the part of an ln- dian. The Indian is the symbol of North High.
