Graduation Week
That half joyful, half sad lime of graduation occupied the attention: of almost 450 families in Medford last week and
was climaxed by Medford High school's traditional ceremonies at the stadium Thursday night. As other classes have
- done in the past, members of the 1962 class spent many hours in rehearsing for the ceremonies and pictured here
during the rehearsal period Tuesday morning are (left to right) Joan Ward, Mary Powell and Adele Schrein.

for further instructions Tuesday morning during rehearsal at the stadium. The three graduates are .(left, to right): Richard '.

are almost strangers to their fellow class members. '

Honor society and the Spanish club, came to Medford from Mil
waukie High school last fall and will enroll at the University of
