Reflections From The Sea

To Our Graduates Congratulations and Farewell With Commencement come fond farewells and sincere wishes for happiness in life. To you, the Class of 1958, we, the undergraduates extend rhese.

Some of us have been with you three years-others less-but all have enjoyed knowing you, working with you. It is with happiness that we say "Congratulations" and yet there is a note of sadness intertwined. When we return in September, we will no longer have the fun-loving crowd from Moore. We will have a new class-but it will not be the Class of 1958.

To some, you were the sophomores during initiation week always popping out of uhe strangest places and requesting the most unusual things; and yet thanks to our initiation, we had a preview of all the fun and happiness we would have with you for the next three years.

For the Class of 1960, you were the guides, the confidantes, the ones who knew the ropes and helped us to find the friendliness of college, the sense of belonging.

The Class of 1961 viewed you first with awe. You had almost completed the road we had just begun to travel. Gradualiy this awe changed to friendship, and we, too, say "'!'hanks".

Again we say "Congratulations" and the best of everything always to the Class of 1958!

Tulia Tudino '61 Receives Grant Awarded To S. R. C.

Invested with symbolic black She felt a surge of pride-restrained She glanced at the sea and wondered at its calm.

Another tide in its turning Churned restless as she peered into its deptshs And wondered no longer She gazed then in sympathy with the moods of her sea.

She saw its depths reflected now, Its star imprisoned in her ring.

But the free will be free; And now, in penetrating light, She beholds the wide sea.

Unbound in force, unknown in fury, unsounded in depth Her sea? For such a little while Was it hers-but now forever She leaves her love by the sea.

But love lives on in memory And forever is such a short time.

-Carol Cannon Pat Dunigan, Chairman of Entertainment, is using the theme of "Our Fair Ladies" and is adapting words to the music of "My Fair Lady". Her committee will re-enact humorous incidents in nhe college days of the departing seniors. The graduating class will recall initiation week, their first visit to the Dean, semester exams, their ring ceremony, 0. C. balls, comps, and finally, graduation.
