It was quite an innovation for Crown Point High School! The 111 seniors that departed at first semester ' s end seemed enough for the school board to approve the first mid-term commence¬ ment. Dr. Bruce R. McQuiqq, assistant professor of educa¬ tion at Indiana University, was the evening ' s key speaker. The only significant difference was the absence of a valedictorian and saluta- torian. The replacements for giving the invocation and benediction were Chris Corning and George Pacho- vas, respectively. The experience was a little hard to swallow for the remaining seniors. Their classmates for the past eleven and a half years were donning caps and gowns and strolling down ' ' that ' ' aisle, without them.
