... 9, am, the yuiducUirig, benioJi . . . i eave you Crown Point High School, with just a littc pang of regret that I didn ' t think ] would feel . . . My careless happy days of high school arc gone—never to be recalled save only by some memory . . . Never again may I race the bell through the corridors of my school, for no longer is it my school . . . never again may I stand at the sideline and yell and cheer for my team, for no longer is it my team . . . never again may I bungle the junior play ... or fight for victory on the gym floor . . . never again may I go to my teachers for advice or guidance, or tingle with pleasure at their praise, or sting under their criticism ... or taste the zvinc of victory or achievement or the knowledge that J did zee!I ... or burn the lights of my room cramming for a final exam ... or zvhirl to the music of my school orchestra ... or strain and szocat over prom decorations, or dance and laugh under the finished product ... or zvorry about the empty treasury . . . or flirt ... or know the singular zvarmth of a schooltime friend . . . All that ended when they handed me my diploma there that night of Commencement — ended forever ... Yet the very zvord means not finish—but beginning . . . This diploma is four years of my life ... Yes, I leave that life, but I go to enter a nezv and even greater zvorld . . .
