How we canvassed the town for subscribers for our sophomore maga zine sale! How we prepared to get our drivers* licenses! When we realized that our junior year had approached, our hearts leaped up at the thought of the Junior- Senior, the junior play and attending College and Career Day activities. Finally came "The” year with the reali zation that some of us had not taken advantage of our opportunities a,s we should have and much had to be done in order to share in the senior tradition - class rings, graduation invitations, caps and gowns, and a diploma. It is with mixed emotions that we come to the close of our high sctool days. Intermingled with our memories are the spaces in air hearts filled with love for those idio have helped prepare us for molding our future.
