SPEAKERS
Dorothy Hitt and Dale Dorsett have been chosen to speak at Commencement Day ceremonies and a t present are working with Instructor Arthur Kelley on their speeches. Of interest is the parallel to be brought out inthe speeches: Dorothy Hitt has been ·attending Palomar for three years, returning to the campus each spring after an absence from college during the fall semester, and Dale Dorsett has returned to continue his schooling after a number of years' experience in the "big, wide world." Dorothy Hitt and gale Dorsett, as responsible citizens . of o u ·r community, during their absences, have been able to see more clearly than other students, the value of a college education.
