The Last Hurrah A thought for the future Three cheers for the end of another chapter in life, one filled with memo- ries, both painful and happy. After 12 grueling years, a sigh of relief came to many but along with relief came thoughts of the future and the changes that will shape lives. Kim Griffith and Anita Rogers be- lieved graduation made them more re- sponsible and ready for the challenge. Students aren't the only ones who got all knotted up this time of year. English teacher Ms. Lourdes Winters said, I usually cry. I always have at least one thought when I see a senior I know walk across the stage. It may not always be a good thought. Familiar faces to the end ,. Graduates Julia Batson. Uhris Beard. and David Berggren awaited the final moments before they received their di- plomas. fphoto hy Nancy Smithl Along with the expectations, seniors were people, too, and often hungry but the Senior Picnic of '85 solved that, for while at least. With the help of Ms. Winters, the senior sponsor, and other faculty members, a meal of fried chick- en, potato salad, rolls, iced tea, and cake pleased many. Games of volley ball and frisbee throwing were played to burn off the extra calories encountered from the feast. Another festivity included the Senior Cruise. Instead of the usual trip to the Bahamas, seniors have an opportunity to witness the many splendors of Mexi- co and its people. So once again the curtain falls on a another year. When friends depart to where their dreams become reality. Mary Karam iff hi' 3' 1 'im Graduation
