ceducaiion for peace' Senior Week itself was highlighted with a splash party, the annual dance at Rock- wood, and the Senior Frolics revue in which the seniors contributed their time and talent to present a memorable satire on their high school life. Our entire high schcol career was perfectly climaxed as the 378 graduates, attired in traditional blue and white caps and gowns, accepted their diplomas in the lovely surroundiigs of the stadium at sunset on June 19. Of those graduating, fifty-five percent will go on to advanced studies in colleges and universities. Santa Barbara High School is proud of thfs large number of students who will look for their successes through higher education. Eleven percent will go into the armed services, and twenty percent will take jobs of their choice in the business world. The remaining fourteen percent are undecided or plan marriage soon after graduation. No matter in what part of the world or in what capacity they are found, the members of the class of 1953 will move more effectively in the wider orbits of their adult lives because of their experiences as a unihed part of the atom which was life at Santa Barbara High School. With Lyman Butterfield presiding, the Senior Class Council frequently met to discuss the plans of the graduating class. Seated cnunterclockwise are Ann Marie Boss, Joyce Fitzpatrick, Marilyn Haley Cretel Bear, JoAnn Saunders, Glenn Herrick.
