The 1937 graduates, all fun and gaiety throughout a full, successful year, suddenly became serious as they listened to Dr. George Mauze's sermon, Youth. Senior week continued with class night on Wednesday. On a stage suggestive of youth with its baskets of spring flowers and a sil- houette in cap and gown, seniors made their last appearance before a Lafayette audience. After a program, planned and presented by the class, Mr. Murphy awarded the cups. Thursday Lafayette's seniors were among 601 graduates who filled the city auditorium arena. Thus ended 128 high school careers. Page 'l'wt-nty-two
