Chosen, by Faculty 'k 'k 'A' 'A' 'A' The last Senior makes his way back to his seat. Applause slowly dies away, and there is a moment of silence. Weill remember this night. Standing together now we sense the excitement around us, see the expectant hope in each other's eyes, feel the pangs of the final parting. Four years pass quicklyhyears that were filled with happily scrambled memories. Commencement has come and we have said ufarewellw to high school days and all associated with them. No longer will we be part of the throng in the hall, adding our footsteps to the steady tramp, adding our voices to the carefree noise. We are no longer school children to be helped on with amused tolerance. We have to face that adventure called life now, learn how to laugh at it, to conquer it. Whether or not we succeed in our search for happiness in this queer, fast-moving world, depends upon us. Tense with the eagerness of athletes standing at the starting line, we stand waiting for the signal to start. Our eyes are on the track before us, we are anxious to test our strength, yet a little afraid of stumbling. Therefore, with a half-regretful smile wc turn our hack on high-school memories and go forward, alone.

Class Song 'Ir 'A' 'k if 'A' Cheers, singing, happy chatter fill the air. Someone calls for order, and someone rises to speak. Gay and triumphant, welre all together now, looking toward the future, looking back at our high school life. lt seems queer to think that We were once Freshmen gazing in bewilderment at the crowd in the halls, or self-important Sophomores, or grave Juniors. Our senior year, filled with exciting importance, is over now, too. ltls thrilling to be on the point of meeting life, young and excited. As the band plays, We stand to say farewell. We are part of a gay, eager throng, giving, receiving handclasps, best- wishes, and smiles. But somehow the thought that itls all over creeps in to sober our hilarityg memories of four happy years crowd into our minds. We'll remember such little things, a teacher's friendly hand, red and black figures on a football field, sunlight spilling through a classroom window, turning a girl's hair to gold. These memories will pause for a moment during the busy years to come and with a reminiscent smile, review thoseihigh school days. PAGEIW
