As Seniors our lockers were so stuffed that we couldn ' t get them closed! Remember as freshmen how baffling those lock- er c ombinations were most of the time the lockers remained locked tight as a vault. Remember the conversation which flowed freely at noon in the entrance hall? Remember (and who could forget it) the feeling we had at graduation when we received that long awaited diploma. All these memories and many more will be brought to mind whenever we pass the halls of R. H.
