STARS ARE MADE — NOT BORN SENIORS The long anticipated moment has arrived. Senior s, clad in caps and gowns, lend an air of dignity to the time-honored setting of Cameron Field. On this bittersweet occasion, the stars take their last curtain call. Is a star born or made? Certainly he is made, and at Petersburg High, students have unlimited opportunities to work their way up. One cannot become a star in an instant. He must build and build, learning to develop his potentialities from his mistakes and experiences. Thus the stars of the future are molded in high school. As graduation approaches, the stars experience mingled feelings of excitement and nostalgia. Memories of their four years on stage come rush- ing back . . . joys, disappointments, anxieties, companionship, meditation, and most important, the feeling of being an integral part of the whole production. 19
