Its crest is our standard, and as such, emblazons not only our class ring but also our yearbook title page, reflecting the ideals we cherish. When at last March blustered in, the eagerly anticipated ring ceremony day arrived. Juniors looked to this day as the crowning event of their junior year. The stage was set . . . the audience eagerly awaited the program . . . the great velvet curtains slowly parted, presenting the senior class ofli- cers and other participants in the ceremony. The seven symbols on the crest, including the shield, the cross, the crown, the lily, the rose, the N.D., and the motto How Good is the Good God, were explained by the eager seniors. Then as each junior's name was called, with mixed feelings she ascended the stage to receive her class ring-a ring she had already begun to cherish. I19

mthexl.. y To the seniors it was the last Notre Dame Day which will always hold the place of honor in our hearts. The traditional mortar boards, the few silent tears, and the more audible laughs all blended into one grand memorable impression which we shall take with us. The fact that it was our last helped us enjoy the day to the fullest extent, grasping each precious moment, perhaps with a lump in our throats and a suspicious gleam in our eyes, but yet with a deeper apprecia- tion for the festival and the meaning behind it. We can almost re-experience and recapture the exhilaration of donning our graduation caps , the nostalgic impres- sion of the grand parade along old Ansel Road, the simple, impressive Student Council induction in the auditorium, the tempting odors of the lunch, and the relaxation of an after- noon spent seeing the movie. We seniors sigh a unanimous Wish that We could be here to celebrate each coming Notre Dame Day, but We'll have to be satisfied by cherishing all the precious memories that We have already gathered. UPPER LEFT: One down and three to go as freshmen step along old Ansel Road to model their Robin Hood hats. UPPER RIGHT: Juniors eagerly await the go signal during their holi- day trek. CENTER: Joyce VVaIsh, Phyllis Mazu- rowski, Marguerite Jost, Rita Love, and Ursula Sandro model their creations , LOWER LEFT: A hat with plenty of John Hancocks is worth its weight in gold to seniors. LOWER RIGHT: The topic seems to be food for the inner man, as sophs gather in a classroom for lunch. lzi
