With 'The Final Chapter’ as their theme, seniors began taking ideas and forming them into 'pieces of art.’ 'You only do this once, so ya gotta do it up right!’ said Butch Walenta. A 10 ft. by 10 ft. wooden book with sheetrock pages took the audience from the history where Danny Harris first per- formed his Coo-Doo Monkey call to the prophecy where the crystal ball showed Curtis Turner leading tourists through the Grand Canyon. Getting together had not been easy; nor was making the book with pages that turn- ed. But with the determination and help of seniors and their parents, the show went on. The final phase brought senior class members closer as they sang Kenny Rogers' 'Through the Years' for the au- dience, as well as for themselves. FROM THE HEART Tammy Boulware and lanie Edwards read the class poem as a duet. Seniors found the poem so appropriate and so original tears fell all through the reading Class Night 29

Of the fifty-six graduating seniors. Melinda was the last to receive hers. Event of the Year . . . No Tickets Necessary At 7:30 p.m. on May 18, graduating seniors began gathering for the big event. No tickets were necessary, just a cap with tassel, gown, and 22 credits. Three rows of seats had been reserved for them, and a fourth for their escorts. The grand opening of ‘ Pomp and Cir- cumstance'' overwhelmed seniors. The crowd stood as they marched in two by two, step by step. When every senior stood before his chair, the heavy chord of the piano signaled them to sit down. Through the speeches of co-valedictorians. Rod Helton and Scott Neufeld, seniors sat ner- vously fanning themselves with the evening's program. Rita Baker sang a song she composed herself, and Lori Schwind and Judy Unruh per- formed a flute duet. All too soon it was time to stand and become a graduate. One at a time, each senior walked across the stage as a student and stepped off as an alumni of Fairview High School. JO Graduation
