Ms. Thornton, the senior class
has asked me to say a few words...
:12:06
...and on behalf of them,
to present this gift to you.
:12:15
"Our names are inscribed inside
the cover of that dictionary.
:12:19
Because there are so many words
to express what we feel for you...
:12:23
...and your long services
to the school...
:12:26
...we decided to give you all the words
in the language.
:12:30
We're losing you, but to something
bigger and more important:
:12:33
The job of principal
of Peyton Place High School.
:12:36
So you'll know we'll never forget...
:12:38
...you can always turn to the words
love, friendship and remembrance...
:12:42
...and know that we're always
thinking them. "
:12:53
This is the loveliest thing
that ever happened to me.
:12:57
I... .
:13:02
There's another word in this book.
:13:05
Gratitude.
:13:09
Now, let's talk about graduation.
:13:12
I would like a report from the
president of the class, Ted Carter.
:13:16
Ms. Thornton, I've arranged
for all the necessary committees...
:13:20
...and if they all do their jobs well,
I'm sure we'll have a fine graduation.
:13:25
Vice president, Selena Cross.
:13:28
The programs will be printed
in a couple of weeks...
:13:30
...and I've rented caps and gowns
at $2.50 apiece.
:13:34
And we're gonna have a tea
and a reception on the lawn afterwards.

Editor of the yearbook,
Allison MacKenzie.
:13:42
The copy's all done.
:13:43
But the engraver's going mad
waiting for all the pictures.
:13:46
Whoever doesn't have his picture in
by Wednesday won't be in the yearbook.
:13:52
Senior dance, Betty Anderson.
:13:56
Everybody has to help
with the decorations.
:13:59
The tickets are printed
and will go on sale a week before.
