Wa Stand Together . . President John Shanks Graduation Highlights The month of May was a busy one for the Senior class. They worked as slaves and held two car washes to raise money for the senior party and to pay off old debts. They also at- tended several parties, and meetings held in their honor. The community churches spon- sored Senior Breakfast. Baccalaureate was held in the Weston Auditorium May 25. The Graduation ceremony was held at 8:00, May 28 in the Gymnasium. Afterwards the seniors attended a very unique party at the Ace of Clubs in Walla-Walla. At the party they cele- brated freedom from school, laughed about old times and made plans to stay friends for- ever. Spirit was their middle name and it showed in all as- pects of senior life. Being active in pep assemblies, sports, and elective classes made an exciting senior year. The seniors used more paper, paint, balloons, and chicken feathers than ever before. It seemed they had an inex- haust able supply of energy. Then Spring Break rolled around and senioritis hit. Anticipation for graduation started the seniors counting the days as they made plans for life after high school. As the day approached the seniors were busy addressing and mailing announce- ments, and scurring to meet deadlines. SENO? CLASS OFFICERS, Sargeant at arms Steve Da- vis.
