Seniors Begin Concluding Year of nThrce's the charmu could easily be the motto of this year's seniors. the first graduating class to spend all three high school years in the new building. The hub-bub in the halls, the gleaming cafeteria with its chatter and Hchowf' thc period each day spent in gym, the early-morning arrival at MHS by bus, car or feet Y all became commonplace and as familiar as their own faces in a mirror to the seniors. Because they entered the new school as sophomores, with juniors and seniors equally ignorant of the building, the class of '61 never experienced the usual sophomore first-day feeling that Heveryone knows where heis going except mef' Throughout their three years they roamed the halls and byways at MHS with confidence. The class of '61 found not all senior-year experiences so familiar. Plans for next year f finding a job or choosing a college - occupied rnuch time, talk and thought. With students hoping for more schooling, the MHS College Day, advice from the senior counselors and results of vari- ous tests helped a decision on the proper college. Amid the new plans and old traditions, milestones of the senior year were passed by the class of '6l. Seniors cheered their own royalty at Homecoming, laughed at the subtile humor of the class play f'Harvey', and studied diligently to make the 3.5 grade average necessary to join National Honor Society. They enjoyed the nostalgic flavor of their last football game and final basketball game as MHS students. The close of the school year approached much too rapidly for the seniors. Soon the hilarious antics of the ADC production, the formal splendour of the Senior Ball, Swingoutis awards, wills and prophecies became events of the past. Baccalaureate and the graduation ceremony itself added their special, sad yet proud moments to the seniors' memories. The long-awaited mo- ment had finally come , the class of '6l,s familiar high school world merged with the outside world to form the future. 24 'fLong on influence are the senior class sponsors Mr. Boom, Mr. Willits, and Miss Johnson, their job is to supervise various senior committees and help plan class activities.

In most senses and in most aspects, our world is the smaller of the two spheres. However, there is no parallel at MHS for the integration-protesting riots of New Orleans higlrschool- ers and parents. In the as- pect of tolerance and un- derstanding our world is the larger.
