Friends and relatives look on as one by one the diplomas are given out. Mark Lane checks to see if it's really his name. Different expressions indicate the variety emotions felt by those noting their prospective futures. As always, senior week was full of surprises. The usual dead animals were found throughout the length of D-hall, for-sale signs were placed all over the school, along with various banners, and a horse statue was found standing on top of the building. Frogs, snakes, and pigeons were found hopping, slith- ering, and flying through senior hall, and a rooster wandered throughout the commons. To end the week, and the school year, seniors engaged in various water fights, which climaxed in the commons during lunch hour. Tuesday morning, an all-senior breakfast was held, beginning at 7:30. From here, a caravan of honking, screaming seniors paraded through town celebrating their being out of school. At 9:00 seniors gathered one last time in the gymnasium for Com- mencement Practice. Mr. Fischer and Mr. McNicol briefly discussed the pro- ceedings and read through the list of graduates, seating them in the correct order, with the 66 honor students in the front, 34 of which would wear golden National Honor Society cords. Directly following, excited seniors rushed to the auditorium to receive their caps and gowns, which they would keep. At 7:00 on May 26, 260 red-robed seniors began to arrive at the school. As they lined up in A-hall, the Football Stadium was filling with anxious friends and relatives. At 7:30 the band began to play the Processional and down marched the soon-to-be graduates, tak- ing their places in front of the crowd as directed by escorts Meg Flenker and Mike Sissel. The Invocation was given by Rev. Gordon Bohlmann, followed by Toni Kuehl's address for the class. Mike Campana had all who attended laugh- ing one minute and crying the next as he spoke, and finally said good-bye to his fellow classmates. At last . . . the moment everyone had been waiting for. Row by row, seniors became graduates as they were pre- sented with their red-bound diplomas by Principal Edward Fischer, Superin- tendent 'Bear' Stevens, and School Board President, Mr. Dean Bassett. As the last name was read, the air was filled with 260 mortar boards detas- seled. Following the benediction by Rev. Walter Sukut, hats once again filled the air and fire crackers sounded as the new graduates filed off the field, where hugs and good luck wishes were shared. GRADUATION 205
