Closing The American Flag... . a familiar symbol to all F.H.S. students ... .«.por- trays a fitting close to the 1968-69 school year. During the past year, this symbol was both respected and abused in a divided world. Many Americans saluted and pledged allegiance to this symbol; other scorned this symbol in protest and hatred. During the year, this symbol covered the coffins of U.S. servicemen who paid the supreme sacrifice for their country, It also flew at half mast, as pictured above, WALSWORTH in respect for General Eisenhower, In con- trast, it was not recognized by U.S. Olympic athletes on a victory stand in Mexico City. This symbol was also the victim of jeers, abuses, and even burning by demonstrators at home and abroad. As a new decade dawns, one can only hope that soon the American Flag will fly over a country not only at peace with all other nations of the world, but also atpeace with itself. Marceline, Mo., U.S.A
