 Did you voyage all unspoken, small and lonely ... or with fame, the happy fortune of the few ... So you winYthe golden harbor in the old way . . . There the old sea welcome waiting . . . waiting trcre for you. Have you ever known the lolk in a sailor’s eyes when he for the last time walks off the gangplank of his ship, a ship Vhich has held for him fond memories and cherished thoughts? Those eyes seem to betra a mixed feeling of nostalgia for the past and wonder at the future. Since the first day we came aboard, four years ago, we have cast our lot with The Furman, and she has become more t| us than just a ship of learning. Her rolling decks have become our home, with each clay s experience aboard becoming an important part of our make-up. And now as we walk down her galgplank for the last time with diploma in hand, we, too, wonder at the future and recall llimpses of our past voyage . . . Homecom- lown to Alley's alley to see his wonders to record exam (our grades show it) . . . won-rould come from . . . voting in all the elections at the Senior Banquet . . . taking our bumps ing . . . hanging the Greens . . . going perform . . . tripping through the graduaj dering where the extra $100.00 in tuition (well, nearly all) . . . watching our manner along with the Hurricanes. All these memories and many riore come to mind as we say good-bye to our gallant craft, our shipmates and frilnds. We have sailed a true course and have caught glimpses of the harbor lights. 28
