Jlfs 2 tm I In.sonmled c ea The port of graduation—we drop anchor at last; and as wc do so, wc pause a moment to think what college has meant to us. Four years! They seemed a bewildering eternity to four hundred confused freshmen poised on the brink of our chosen journey on the sea of college experience. Even more bewildering was our first introduction to this college life—initiation! But those days of square meals, sun dial prostrations, and that insufferable regalia were not to last forever. Smoother sailing lay ahead. To steer our course mid the treacherous waters of freshman Jays, we chose Laird Robertson, Doc Savage, Penny Shepherd. and Chuck Benshetlcr. There was the excitement of our first big college football games, pep rallies, ana Homecoming Day. College dances beckoned us, and even we frosh executed our own dance, The Harvest Hop, rustic in theme and decorations, and rollicking in atmosphere. May Day brought us the color and spirit of the Mardi Gras—indeed, the glamour that we had hoped and dreamed we should find at college. Inevitably, and less glamorously, the close of the year brought us also our first college finals, an experience we hesitate to describe. Sad we were to see that first year draw to a close. Three years! They seemed to prophesy much hap-pincss, for we were now orientated to college life and eager to make the most of the journey undertaken but a year before. Captained by Walt Ullrich, Chuck Bcnshetler, Mary Workman, and Arlene Snyder, we set sail for sophomore joys. How important we felt as we watched the lowly frosh suffer the agonies of initiation! How eagerly we joined in helping them to feel its most poignant elements! Our first orientation to our chosen profession awaited us in this year, the indescribable ecstacies of playground duty. Never shall wc fail to recall the five minute lunches and perpetual indigestion that accompanied it. Two years! Where did they go? With Jim Quack-enbush, Hank Freeman, Betsy Anncsley. and Ray Dunlap at the helm, we set forth upon the third lap of our travels. This year brought us joys that were not only academic in nature. Who could forget the night when Daisy Mac descended into our midst with Li'l Abner in tow, all because Sadie Hawkins Day had given the fair sex that glorious opportunity of annexing the man of her choice for a gala evening in Lower Slobbovia? Who could forget that great night when our wrestlers became state champions? Do you remember the Junior Prom ? One year—it seemed unbelievable that one year only lay before us. We caught ourselves nostalgically wishing, even as we looked forward to graduation, that we might begin our trip all over 3gain. We called upon Dale Miller, Joe Seitz, Mary Workman, and Glenna Eshlcman to pilot us to our journey's end and entrusted to Dave Davis the responsibility of compiling the events enshrined in our ship's log within the pages of the TOUCHSTONE. Wc knew the thrill that glows behind the footlights as we joined a bewildered Belinda in her adventures at Ramshackle Inn.” To Miss Lenhardt we raise our hands in salute for guiding the cast to a successful performance. Wc experienced again the festive joys of May Day—the Big Time. All too soon the arrival of announcements, caps and gowns, and those final finals told us that the end was near. Our Senior Prom brought us to the crest of social happiness. And now it has come—graduation day. We drop anchor at the end of our journey realizing that this is not an end, but a beginning. For a new- voyage begins tomorrow, a voyage upon the sea of life. It is our hope that as we embark upon it, we may lift anchor again with proper attitudes and sufficient knowledge to say with conviction, We are ready—full speed ahead!
