Green and red strobe lights accompanied Mr. Holland and the High School Band as they entertained members of the Na- tional Honor Society of Central Massachusetts. The new elementary school was the setting for this event and the program began when Mrs. Slocum, Chairwoman of the Sut- ton School Committee and Mr. Edward F. Grant each extended a warm welcome. The memor- able event of the day was the keynote address delivered by Governor Francis W. Sargent. Governor Sargent commented on our country's current politi- cal problems by stating that our highest office was in chaos and by calling Watergate a chamber of Horrorsf, He also touched on the recent resignation of former Vice President Spiro T. Agnew. In his address Governor Sar- gent gave considerable attention to the subject of change. He mentioned the changes that had taken place both in Massachu- setts and our nation since his election to Governor. Change is so much a reality , he said that we tend to forget its existencef, Governor Sargent also discussed the country's future leaders who would be responsible for future changes in our government. You are the leaders of the fu- ture, you, who are now the lead- ers in your schoolsf' he told Na- tional Honor Society members. In conclusion, Governor Sar- gent expressed his opinion that President Kennedy's greatest achievement was his encourage- ment of youthful participation in government and he also ex- pressed the hope that some of the Honor Society members would someday become involved with government. Following his address Gover- nor Sargent went directly to the helicopter he had arrived in. As the helicopter took off a crowd of excited elementary children stood waving goodbye. rw C
