Baccalaureate And Graduation 1972 The Speaker, Bob Russell, minister of South East Christian Church. This certifies that the S.eneca High School class of 1972 has completed the course of study prescribed by the Board of Education for the High School Department and each graduate is therefore entitled to this diploma. These words summarized four years of work and fun experienced by each, of the graduates , and the evening climaxed a period of time that had once seemed long but had now proved to be too short. The Coliseum at the Fairgrounds was filled with relatives and friends who listened as intently as the graduates to class president Steve Bush deliver the Invocation which was followed by an appropriately selected poem and song. Congressman Romano Mazzoli, introduced by his cousin, Robb Mazzoli, urged all youth to dedicate itself to the future of our country and to vote in all matters concerning it. Following the message came the moment all had awaited - the awarding of the diplomas. A feeling of happiness, satisfaction, and freedom mixed with apprehension filled each graduate ' s mind as he stepped forward in answer to his name to receive his diploma from one of our school ' s three principals , Mr. McDowell, Mr. Craigmyle, and Mr. Burch. The pronouncing of the Benediction by class vice-president Tom Burwinkle put a touch of finality on attaining this goal. l-itf i Class officers assemble for Baccalaureate.

Graduates — Alumni Life seems to be a series of events we cannot wait to attain - plateaus of achievement at which we yearn to advance to the next level. One important plateau is graduation from high school. From this point we preceed our various ways. However, one fact that is irreversible is that we will never again return to being secondary school students - we have now reached that lifelong status called alumnihood. At some time in the future you will return to a reunion of your classmates. Then you will realize, if you haven ' t before that time , that there is quite a bit of truth in that hackneyed old message carried by the words: Old friends are the best friends after all.
