Dorwin And Haakenson Last Pop Concert At HHS The 1979 spring Pop Concert held o special meaning for all those who participated. Not only was it the night when the young musicians put their talents to use, but it was also the last Pop Concert at which Miss Dorwin and Mr. Haakenson would direct. Miss Dorwin retired after almost twenty years of dedication in the Hudson system. Mr. Haakenson left to direct a band in Delong Junior High School in Eau Claire. The choruses and band showed their appreciation for their years of dedication with gifts. Many tears were shed at this memorable performance — the last for Dorwin and Haakenson of H. H. S. 1.

Graduation — The End To A Beginning Graduation meant the end of the senior year, but if was also a goal accomplished and another step up the ladder. The class of 79's graduation was unusu- al. Due to an eleven-way tie they had eleven honor students to replace one valedictorian. A speech by class president Natalie Wilcoxson was given after the honors were presented. Natalie's wish for her class was for everyone to be happy in whatever they do. However, what people remem- bered most about her speech was that her cap kept falling off. In a burst of exhilaration, the senior class ended their ceremony with a procfice that had been clos- eted for some time. In unison they threw their graduation caps into the air, and with this a phase of their lives drew to a close. 1. A very relieved Mark Knosr receives his long awaited diploma. 2. The class of '79 officially meets for the last rime. 3. Senior class president. Natalie Wilcoxson gives her farewell speech. a.
