It doesn't seem possible that graduation time is here again and We as seniors will soon leave our favorite high school, The staff has endeavored to present a yearbook that will show the year's activities in picture and story. We also have Wanted to show some ot the opportunities that have been ours for tour, five, and six years-opportunities to associate with others, to know our teachers, to take part in many activities and athletic events. These have been ours and We believe that our future is better for having this background.

Books are issued, and scene one is well under way. The opening action of the play takes its form in the football preview with Madison.
