With their high school educa-tion completed, 68 Bingham high school seniors received gradua-tion certificates Wednesday eve-ning at the school auditorium. Dr. C. N. Jensen, superintendent of Jordan school district, presen-ted diplomas. The commencement program this year contrasted with exer.-cise-s of former years in that talks were given by members of the graduating class, in place of the longer address usually given by an adult speaker from outside. The high school band played 'March Heroic" by Holmes. Class President Joe Tibolla acted as master of ceremonies. The invo-cation was by David Ireland, stu-dent body president. Eugene Fifield then sang, "Un-til" by Sanderson. Other musical numbers included a saxophone solo, "Hongroise" by Belov, play-ed by Roland Miller; a piano solo, Schumann's "Soaring", by Mar-zett- a Colyar; class song, "Mem-ories", by the graduates. Jay Kuhni gave the benediction and Principal T. H. McMullin present-ed the class to the board of edu-cation. The six graduates who gave ad-dresses had received B plus aver-ages or better during four years in high school. Subjects of spee-ches were as follows: The salutatory address, given by Howard Sumnicht, introduced the topic of the evening, "Our American Heritages", with these words: "The privilege of public con-trol of education is guaranteed by our democracy, but that is only one of the fundamental guarantees of a democracy. We have inherited that for which thousands of men have fought and died freedom. What a glor-ious thing it is that instead of entering this world under the heavy chain of submission and oppression, we possess the right to enjoy life and seek happiness."
