Anticipation behind stage. As 8:15 drew near on the evening of June 23. 1958. parents and friends watched as the graduation classes of Conard, in red and gray, and Hall. in blue and white robes marched into the Bushnell Audito- rium and took their seats. This was Con- ard's first graduation and with the two classes graduating together this commence- ment was the largest in the history of the town. Following the national anthem. the Rev. john YN'ebster delivered the opening prayer. Jerry Zamost of Hall played a violin solo. Airo Tziganes' and later in the program Mark Goldman rendered a magnificent performance of Chopin's Polonaise in A Flat Major. Dr. Ethel A. Alpenfels, a professor of anthropology at New York University, spoke on man from 'iAdam to atom. As our names were called we mounted the stage to receive our diplomas. lVhen every- one had formally become graduates we sang the Conard Alma Mater for the first time in public As Mr Lauer directed s wonderful memories of our year at Conard flashed through our minds Following the singing of Halls Alma Mater both classes Joined in a final cheer for our class of 1958 A little sad, a bit excited, a lot of happiness' Mr Weyland Dr Garber Mr Toppm Dr Alpenfels Mr Parsons Lynn Tomsky Linda Terry Judy Slegal and Dr Thorne and Mr Rives Betsy She,-en Pamela Chernoff recen es er diploma Expectant graduates file to Bushnell seats 118 .
