We will walk across the stage and with one flick of the wrist, move the tassels on our caps from student to alumni of Columbus High School. We are ready for our Flight to New Horizons. LAST WILL TESTAMENT We, the undersignedf known officially as the Senior Class of Columbus, of 1960 being of unsound mind, of weak heart, and having but a few short hours to dwell among the horrors of the trials and tribulations of our high school days, do make, publish, and declare this to be our last Will and Testament. To our School we leave our love and loyalty. We also leave the echoes of our soothing voices, the privilege of looking at our senior class pictures, and all the clever jokes in study hall and classes. To the Faculty we leave our appreciation for their understanding and patience and our thanks for their guidance and interest. We also leave them our supply of good grades to give to the kids next year and a dozen red pencils to replace the ones they used up in marking our papers this year. To the Juniors we bequeath that rare gift called senior privileges. We also leave them our ability to raise money and a map of Minot so they wonft get lost there next year on their skip day. We also leave them our poise and dignity which they sadly need. To the Sophmores we give what few traces of meekness and humility we may have left and a lot of advice which we won’t specify because they won’t follow it anyway. To the Freshmen we give our brains and ability, the joy of laughing at nothing and the pleasures and pangs of puppy love.
