SENIORS LIFT ANCHOR FOR NEW PORT SENIOR SCHEDULE Senior Play April 14 Senior Prom May 16 Farewell Assembly May 22 Baccalaureate May 25 Commencement May 26 Having the honor of being the first graduating class of Carroll, the 1959 seniors' proudly parade their blue caps and gowns during Senior Week. With joyous airs, but with sad hearts, these 166 pioneers bid a final adieu to teachers' and classmates in a farewell assembly on Senior Day. After the assembly, each senior gives his mortar board to a junior who walks with him out of the assembly. This gesture symbolizes the relinquishment of Tiger glory and tradition by the seniors to the juniors. Jerry Sharp, senior president, then attaches the first of many links to the school's' one ton anchor, which link represents this class in future years. On May 26 they gather together for the last time for commencement in Del Mar Auditorium. Tonight they launch, where will they anchor? l8l
