A Whole New Feeling Sweat was wiped from the brows of the crowd, anticipation, relief and fright were among the emotions felt as the Class of 1979 met in the gymnasium for the culmination of twelve years of their life - grad- uation. Twelve years of hard work, partying, cramming at the last minute, taking vacations, flunking math, the Prom and on June 13, 1979 the reality of becoming an adult. Mr. Hipps introduced the guest speaker, Kathy Sebo, a Senate repre- sentative for the state of North Carolina. Ms. Sebo addressed the 261 nervous seniors, offering good and helpful advice for future plans. The twelve marshals, top students of the Junior Class, chosen to lead the seniors were: Lisa Collins, head marshal, David Boone, Janice Friedman, Janice Greene, Blaine Boodwin, Joel Harper, Crystal Hedgecock, Ana Kahn, Carol McCraw, Karen Schultheiss, and Christi Wall. A long, low sigh of relief and a suddenly brilliant smile appeared on each face as the students received their diplomas. It was an experience they had never been through before and would never again - a whole new feeling. Leaders of the class. Joel Harper, along with the other marshals, listens intently to the graduation presentation. Thank you. Jeanne Bailey receives her diploma with a handshake and a word of thanks. 22X Graduation
