This program will take the place of
the regular assembly prpgram of
March 24, and it very likely will not
overrun the period of. time,piloted for

elaborate, but it is hoped, that the stu

the graduation in J une.,,
Graduates will receive the new
standard diplomas, which are being
printed. There will very probably be
three graduations this year, with the
first coming in March, the second in
June, and the third in August,
