But Leave as Young Men and Women For the past four years Wavzata lias been a wav of life for us, the class of 1956. In its sacred wails are stored all the laughter and joy. sorrow and heartache of the students who. attended it. Wavzata is all the fun and happiness of being young. The games, dances, clubs and parties are activities we will never forget. It is the fads, crazy sayings, and nonsense of a carefree bunch of teen-agers.

The gay, noisy music of the band at a football game, the slow, dreamy music of the orchestra at a dance, and the fast, cheerful music of the band at an assembly. On Commencement night, as we walk down the aisle toward our diplomas, the moving, majestic music of Pomp and Circumstance will play a major part in this all important moment of our lives. W’c, the class of 1956, entered Wavzata as boys and girls, but we leave as young men and women, toward new responsibilities and a new life. 25
