As the class of ' 73 met to- gether for the last time, the Exhibi- tion Hall at the Coliseum was trans- formed into a room full of anxious, confused and happy seniors. After everyone found his place in line and the girls received their roses, ready or not, the long proces- sion began. At last, the 1973 class of Wayne Generals assembled on the floor of the Coliseum to receive a word of advice from Dr. Pruis of Ball State and to be honored by teachers. parents, families and friends. Upon obtaining the diplomas, a feeling of relief, as well as, success and ac- complishment passed over the crowd. Not knowing exactly what the future holds, some students will go on to various colleges in the fall, while others contemplate marriage and per- manent jobs. Whatever the future, proud and happy, the graduates of ' 73 left their seats slowly to say good-bye to fellow classmates, forever to relive many special moments. (Above Left) Salutatorian Kian Porter led the class in prayer, as it became the last time the seniors would be assembled together.
