Nineteen sixty eight-sixty nine! What a year! Was, .N Tiny Tim, Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year's. Old girlfriends, new boyfriends, minis, maxis, and midis. ' Nineteen sixty eight-sixty nine was one heck of a year! Remember the 13-12 game against Eastern, sitting in the- cold watching Ballou rout Chamberlain, and all those wild seventh periods in Mr. Caison's class. Another year older, another adventure to look back on It was the year of Aquarius, leap year, election year, and apple bear for kids. Somebody even discovered Spiro Agnew. Teachers resigned, teachers were hired, there were those F days, those A days, and those class cutting days. But there were sad moments, too, the April riot, the Kennedy and King slayings, and the violence at the Democratic National Convention. Then there was the Inauguration, the canceled Youth Inaugural Ball, basketball, baseball, and finally there was another graduation. . ' 'Sixty eight-sixty nine was some kind of year, and in the next pages we will show you what it meant to each Ballou Knight.
