The iovial mixed group was carried by school bus to Matiliia, leaving the school at lO a. m. and returning at S p. m. Following this and promoted by the tens was the class day program, also an annual event held in the auditorium during the last week of school and attended by the whole school. On the program were several numbers by the orchestra, an address by Gale Graham, A. S. B. prexy, who presided over the entire affair, and a special intro- duction by the tenth-grade class president, Bill I-litson. A band appropriately called the Mariner Class orchestra, conducted by Melvin Straus Kirkman, gave out with several delightful, popular numbers. All this preceded a novel Gay Nineties program arranged by the musical department heads. With Wilbur Jensen as master of ceremonies, Colleen Watson, Betty Higgins, Mary Martha Morgan, and members of the Glee club were introduced as the perfor- mers depicting those early days. Last but not least in this theme, a skit called the Cake Walk Dance proved to be an hilarious affair. The long-awaited will, history, and prophecy were then enacted by several prominent students. Returning, Bill l-litson presented the school with the class gift which consisted of a bright, gayly colored Mariner flag. To the new presi- dent of the A. S. B., the Mariner Wheel was presented by Gale Graham in an impressive ceremony. Principal Ogden made a short presentation and gave the Doty Memorial to the outstanding commercial student of the year, The graduation was held on Thursday evening, June 8, in the iunior high audi- torium, which was filled to capacity. Carrying out several new ideas, the gradu- ates wore bright blue caps and gowns, topped with a gold tassel and entered the main auditorium doors alone. Following streamers, the graduates proceeded to the platform to receive their diplomas. The partners walked together the last six feet up the plank onto the Good Ship Mariner to conclude the ceremony. l9l
