Seniors say “farewell” to Roosevelt The commencement ceremonies for the 1979 graduating class took place on May 22 at 8 p.m. at Vets Auditorium. As the Roosevelt High School Band played the ceremonial prelude seniors filed in and took their places. Then Principal Bruce Gardner welcomed everyone. Roosevelt seniors were honored with the presence of Gover- nor and Mrs. Robert D. Ray, who were the keynote speakers of the evening. Both reminisced about their high school days at Roosevelt. Dr. E. Keith Hyde, Director of Planning and Develop- ment for the Des Moines public schools, presented the class for graduation, while diplomas were awarded by Mrs. Betty Grundberg, a member of the board of education. The graduating class had two valedictorians, Suzanne Helmick, and Juli May, who represented the class of 389. The two valedictorians as well as Kerry Mitchell, Presiden- tial Scholar, and Katie Boyle, Cress Hoyt winner, were an- nounced during the graduation ceremony.
