Normally (as with the other classes that are listed under CLASSES), this page contains the Senior Class "Narrative" or "History" from the yearbook. The webmaster has been informed that the 1968 yearbook did NOT have such a page!  The following was graciously submitted by a VERY helpful graduate of the class ...
