As the school turned the golden age of 100, citizens of Newton decided it was time to have an all out celebration. The celebration officially began August 30 with an official ribbon-cutting, flag- raising, opening day. The year was dubbed Railer 100. Although the centennial brought about definite changes for the year, when one looked into a classroom, the locker section or the commons, students seemed un- affected. Everyone still had to put up with final exams, staying in class during break and getting sent around the long way to the lunch line. Many preparations were made to make this a year to remember. Collectors items sucn as the pewter belt buckle and Railerman were sold The programs ofthe ath letic events the school paper the NEWTONIAN and even the RAILROADER were all changed to commemorate the centennial Everyone anticipated the Grand Renunion Week June 1016 1985 Activities planned for the week were a musical over 50 class renunions a bar b que athletic tournaments concerts and tours v-Y ,r ff if X,-.gt A sr.
