Al-linder Gymnasium. There were no tears for the graduating seniors, they were proud of themselves and their accomplishments, and they were ready to leave GHS and begin their futures. The class motto, You only live once, but if you live right once is enough” hung above the platform, dictating a destiny for the graduates, and an inspiration for the underclassmen. Senior class President Peggy O'Brien gave the invocation, and Principal, Clark Oliver introduced the platform guests.
