Prelude O each of us life is like a grand musical composition divided into various movements . . . a symphony composed by the Great Creator. As the musician seeks harmony in the sublime profound regions of expressive music, each of us in our own lives, seeks out consonance and joins in concord the permanent bond between human life and fine music. Thus at Portland High School our four years of study and enjoyable fel- lowship combine into an enthralling symphony of four movements. Our introduction, full of gayety and vigor, portrays both the fast moving reception of the group by the school and our blending into the school routine during our freshman year . . . Allegretto - The Greeting On realization of our individual parts in this true life symphony we settled down to conscientious endeavor and so created the second movement our sophomore year . . . Cantabile - Fine Achievement Through Study Under the baton of the faculty we concentrated our efforts and approached the climax of the now predominating symphony. Our minds more easily grasped the varied and mystifying essence of the vast world surrounding us. Through the third movement we transmitted this vigorous feeling of under- standing . . . NFO rtissimo' l With the Hnale of our symphony in view and lofty notes echoing the thoughts of accomplishments, friends and future plans, our student sym- phony members raised their instruments of education and self confidence and the vibrating tones of majestic brilliance resounded with the fourth and Hnal movement . . . Grandiose', - in Caps and Gowns 1123
