N. Drewniak, F. Pawlak, K. Michel, and M. Borgetti leave the stage after baccalaureate services in anticipation of graduation. Beaming seniors Hash the victory sign before embarking on the road that will lead them away from WHS and into the future. Seniors Bid Farewell to Whiting High School June 7, 1972 marked the end of a four-year era for the graduating seniors. Traditional graduation ceremonies were held at the Whiting Memorial Gym in the presence of the members of the school board, administration, rela- tives, and friends. Nancy Waclawek and Maria Rosendo, valedictorian and salutatorian respectively, presented the closing speeches to the class of ’72. This year the seniors voted to change the colors of the graduation gowns from green and white to green and gold. A senior paper concerning the history of the class of ’72, class wills, and other traditional aspects of Senior Week replaced the usual senior assembly. Many seniors enjoyed a last time together as a class during the trip to Washington, D.C. during Easter Vaca- tion. Such historic places as the Smithosonian Institute, the Capitol Building, and the late President Kennedy’s grave in Arlington National Cemetery were visited. Sen- iors also had free time to shop in the famous stores in New York. M. A. Pustek and K. Michel adjust tassels before entering the gym with their peers for the last time as the class of ‘72. 23

Don’t Rain on Her Parade — Funny Girl The feelings of anxiety and anticipation melted away for the cast of Funny Girl as the curtain rose for the per- formance on April 28 and 29. hi conjunction with Mr. Kometz and Mr. Gow of the music department. Miss Stecy endeavored to recreate the early days of the theater on the stage at WHS. The stage band accompanied the vocalists and provided back- ground music during the production. A professional cho- reographer devised advanced routines for the dancers. Fanny Brice (Bonnie Corondan), a poor Jewish girl, joined the Ziegfield Follies, hoping to leave her mark on the world of show business. Because of her obnoxious per- sonality, Fanny received the break that she needed. She married Nick Arnstein (Terry Demeter) and had a child; but, unfortunately, she did not recognize true happiness. Her marriage ended in divorce. Karen Kaminski, accompanied by Mr. Kometz, sings her version of “Henry Street” as Miss Stecy judges her style of delivery. Mr. Kometz and Miss Stecy, co-organizers of the musical, confer on a rendition of one of the songs from Funny Girl. “You are woman; 1 am man, explains George Harangody to Bonnie Corondan during his try-out for the musical. 22
