SENIORS All good things must come to an end, and during the course of every year some old traditions must either be revised or abandoned. So it was that the spirit, in his seventy-sixth year of life here at Moline High School, saw the old practice of two yearly graduations, one in January and one in June, replaced by the newer system of only one graduation — the spring one. This last mid-term class, which graduated on Wednesday, January 16, is worthy of special note. Throughout their high school years the members of this class were exceptionally active in every type of activity offered to them. The eighty members of the class of January 1952 can well be proud of the fact that they were the last seniors to graduate from Moline High in January exercises. In this sec- tion, asteriks ( ) are used to denote January graduates. Our spirit in the tower celebrated his birthday a month earlier than usual this year due to new state legislation which enabled these seniors to plan the school s first May graduation. He donned blue and w hite — to match the graduation robes — to attend the spring commencement exercises of Moline’s seventv-sixth class on Monday, May 26, at Wharton Field House. By an almost unanimous vote of the entire class, white robes for girls and blue robes for boys were chosen to replace the tradi- tional gray robes.
