Class Day Brings Realization That Graduation Is Near Friday, June 6 the strains of Pomp and Circumstance once again filled the gymnasium as the class of ’75 participated in their class day. Rehearsal for it consisted of an hour and a half in the gym the previous day. The alma mater was practiced and gold tassels handed out to seniors with 3.5 grade averages. On Friday the halls were filled with fumble-fingered seniors adjusting robes, mortarboards and tassels. As the underclassmen were ushered into the gym the anxious seniors found their places in lines. Upon marching into the gym, a burst of applause that grew in volume greeted the class. The class day program consisted of musical presentations by both tbe band and chorus members. Bill Cannon was presented with a year’s supply of Joe Luke’s old tennis-shoes and a stuffed” chauvanist pig from the three women in his life. Senior superlatives were pointed out to the entire school and the Last Will and Testaments and Class Prophecy were read. After the more frivolous of entertainments, Mr. Miller mounted the podium and handed out the many awards and scholarships that the class had collected. The day was over for the seniors as they sang their alma mater and amid the cheers, whistles, and applause of the underclassmen, the class of ’75 once again threaded its way out of the gym. 178 CLASS DAY

Surrounded hy friends and relatives, futile promises were maile to keep in touih with eaih other through the years .ind to meet again at the reunion. As everyone left to make an apisearance at home, change t lothes and party, one major topit ilominated the thoughts of everyone — freedom! Although they were free it was obvious to all that not only the Ixst years of their lives had come to a close but also the most carefrec Hill presents Mr. Po|x- with a htX ' and an orange straw hat. A big moment tor mother and son What a Ix’autiful night for graduation. Another milestone!
