Let’s Play Marbles Graduation and marbles usually do not have a lot in common. On June 13, 1987 on the freshly mowed foot¬ ball field, however, 179 graduates toyed with mar¬ bles while they patiently waited for the speeches to conclude. As each senior was called forward to receive his diploma, he handed Mr.Jim Gresham a marble which was then placed in Mrs. Mauzy ' s cup. When all the names had been called Mr. Gresham be¬ came the sole owner of 179 marbles. Mr. Gresham ac¬ cepted the marbles with good humor, said Diane Knupp, one of the gradu¬ ates. Tim and Todd Barb, who initiated this caper, got the idea for the marbles at their sister ' s college graduation. They bought the marbles and distributed them to their classmates along with instructions about what to do with them. Most students thought the idea was really good.Beth Showalter com¬ mented that it was a real cool idea, while Jon Pierce thought it was a different twist to graduation. Although the escapade may be commonplace at other schools, the Barb twins were the first to ini¬ tialize the stunt at Broad¬ way. Maybe we will try it at our gaduation, too, said Kelley Holsinger. Mrs. Kim Tate concluded I always thought teachers were the only ones who lost their marbles. True to form, the 1987 graduating class left a lasting impres¬ sion on their school. SENIORS ' SONG. Seniors Ann Coyle andDoyle Wil¬ liams sing with the concert choir. The group provided the music for graduation. Student Life FINAL ASSEMBLY. Final adjust¬ ments to caps and gowns are hur¬ riedly made as the graduates amass. This was the first time in three years graduation was held outside.
