GHS excelled in Fine Arts this year. Many small groups performed before the student body and various community organizations. The lVlad- rigals, after designing their own col- orful costumes, upheld a reputation of beautiful singing. Before the Christmas holidays, GHS students viewed Christmas lVla- donna. Ably directed by lVlrs. Mary Elliott, the one-act play added a touching moment to the Christmas atmosphere. An array of clowns, ex- cellently made up by students, bright- ened the stage. The highlight of the spring was Arsenic and Old Lace. The old fav- orite was characterized by mystery, suspense and comedy. Throughout long rehearsal hours, Nlrs. Elliott in- terpreted each character for stu- dent actors and the finished presen- tations were big hits. Choral groups and dramatists de- lighted audiences with some never- to-be-forgotten moments. 20 1 1 i X ,.M.4'.t uw... Y' 'f I i'

Normal school life resumed in the dawning of spring with school elec- tions. The campus was transformed into a world of cardboard and col- ors. Candidates experienced the usual anticipation, suffered butter- flies before speaking, and kept eager eyes on the voting results. Whether they won or lost, it was an exper- ience to remember. Feelings changed and thoughts turned to frivolity. The outdoors beckoned, and students took advan- tage ofthe lovely GHS campus. Graduation, so long awaited, seemed to come much too soon sud- denly. Seniors began to cherish the memories of GHS and the most ex- citing years of their lives. But what were the three years compared to a lifetime? They were mere stepping- stones - but vastly important ones. And, one June evening, the larg- est senior class in GHS history met untried horizons at the Florida Gym Exit. 22
