GRADUATION-1955

Well senior, it's been a long
way hasn't it? There were many
times when you thought you
would never stand here before the
auditorium.
It's a beautiful day, senior :.
the birds are singing, the trees
are greener than you could have
imagined, and that sky is so blue
and so quiet. You can almost see
your whole college career passing
on that one white cloud up there.
How does it look to you now sen
ior? What do you see as you stand
nervous and perspiring in black
cap and gown ready to enter the
auditorium for the last time as
student? Let's both look let's
both look at your college career.
You came to college four years
ago from Miami, Florida; you
were green, young and so COM
pletely sure of yourself. Your pos
sessions were numerous and in
valuable. All of the glory of high
school days had been neatly pack
ed away into a treasure case-the
love letters and notes written by
that special someone were tied
with ribbons and carefully laid
away, the picture of your sweet
heart in a nice gold frame you
watched every minute. of the day
(every free minute, that isl. You
were positive you would die If
you had only this picture to clasp
to your heart for the next four
years. That was four, years ago,
senior-four short years ago.
That first year was smooth sail
ing, now that you think of it,
wasn't it? You made good grades,
you studied, you became mem
Der of an extra curricula activity.
The next year you came back,
not green anymore, but rather the
world-wise sophomore and more
completely sure of yourself than
ever before. College was to be a
cinch. But it didn't turn out that
way, senior.
And always it kept on the
struggle, the pain, the hope and
the joys. Until finally you have
come to this day - to this spring
and to another hope. For some
a career is waiting, for others e
mate, a home, a June wedding
with flowers and champagne. YoU

hear-what everyone hears. This

they call it. There will be the
dark days of winter, seemingly
unsurmountable barriers, but you

Morse Fears
Gas Rate Rise

Senator Morse, Democrat OF
Oregon, charged today that the
natural gas bill pending in Con-
gress might cost gas consumers
as much as $500 million a year.
The bill passed the House. 209
to 203, before adjournment, and
will be debated by the Senate
in January. 1t would exempt
producers of natural gas from
regulation by the Federal Power
Commission. The House report
on the bill said, however. that
it contains provisions to protect
consumers from excessive rate
increases.
Senator Morse estimated that
in a mild climate like Washing
ton, D. c.. the passage Of the bill
would cost the householder who
cooks and heats with gas about
$40 more a year. In a sharper
climate like Minneapolis and st.
Paul, the Senator estimated, the
cost would be SIS more a year.
The Senator said the bill is
intended to overturn a Supreme
Court decision that the present
Natural Gas Act authorizes and
directs the Federal Power Com
mission to regulate gas prices at
the well in order to make all
other gas rate regulations mean
anything"
Senator Morse conceded that
some frosting has been put on
this bill to give the appearance
Iof some protection for con-
sumers." but he said "the authors
have admitted that the purpose
Iof leaving field prices unregu-
lated is UNCHANGED"
