Days seemed to leave almost before they arrived. Time moved ever so quickly, carrying with it memories of our past three or four years at Theodore Roosevelt. Many events have occurred and many good times have been had by all. The dances, the trips, the performances of Roose- velt's students at talent and fashion shows, and many other occasions are now things of the past, never to be forgotten. Other unforgetables in- clude-failing tests, struggling through Regents, our beautiful cafeteria, and, May I have your attention please? Please listen to me, this is Mr. Saltman speaking. They all went to make up a very enioyable stay at Roosevelt. One of the events characterizing our senior year was Red Letter Day last November. This was one event all seniors looked forward to with great anticipation because it was the one day set aside to boast seniorship. The winter months brought a skating party which was attended by many of us and proved to be an exciting evening for everyone. Our annual Spring Concert was proof of the many hours of rehearsing that all band, orches- tra, glee club and chorus members had gone through to make their last public appearance in Roosevelt a successful one. The applause they re- ceived showed that they had reached their goal. June brought many thrilling events the first of which was our annual boatride to Playland. This is the highlight of any year at Roosevelt, but this year it meant iust a little more to the seniors. Since it was our last, we made it our best. Characteristics were a watermelon on the boat, scat- tered guitars, screams heard from the roller coaster, cotton candy, loads of fun, and more of the same. On the way home, each of us felt sad, knowing we would not be here next year to enioy the excitement of this wonderful day. We will never forget the feelings of happiness and nos- talgia we experienced on this day.

Our Senior Advisor, Mr. Robert Pioselli, outdid himself again by seeing that our activities were properly scheduled and carried out smoothly. The Senior Prom was an evening of sparkling color, fun and thrilling excitement for those who attended. lt was held on Friday evening, June 4, in the Georgian Room of the Americana Hotel. It now takes its place as a page in our book of memories. Our senior trip was the next big event which added to the experience of our senior year. We spent an exhilerating day picnicking at Rockland 'Lake State Park. All of us enjoyed the sports, the food, the fun, and being with good friends. The year was climaxed by the most meaningful event for any senior. This was Graduation Day, June 29. This ceremony has been our goal since we entered the doors of Roosevelt, and with a true feeling of accomplish- ment, we close the doors behind us. It was a beautiful day indeed. The ceremonies were held at the R K O Fordham, and, as we marched in, wear- ing caps and gowns of maroon, a feeling of pride filled each one of us. lt was not pride only in our school, but also in ourselves. Let us hope we will never forget this wonderful school that so strongly influenced the most important part of our lives.
