At Spring Banquet
The Central Cafeteria was the scene of the annual spring banquet in observance of the thirty-fifth anniversary of the Rochester
Junior College and the twenty-fifth anniversary of Roy W. Goddard
as Dean of the College.        . n
Toastmaster James Brough opened the festivities and kept things
running smoothly throughout the evening. The candle-lighters, Diane
Berryman, Charlene Nietz, Donna Hull, Anita Stewart, Marnea Harding, and Eunice Haling added dignity and reverence during the candle-lighting ceremony. The delicious turkey dinner, served by RHS'
girls, was made more enjoyable by the well-chosen musical selections of the Rochester high school string ensemble.
After .dinner Dean Goddard gave a brief talk on "How
Junior College Was Developed and What It Stands For."
He mentioned that one tradition of RJC is its fine faculty
and outstanding scholastic standard. "Another tradition to
be proud of," said the Dean, "is this annual banquet, where
the student body rises to its greatest heights. We have the
D3st percentage of attendance at the banquet this year that
we have ever had." Jule Block then presented Dean Goddard with a smoking stand on behalf of RJC in appreciation of the Dean's past twenty-five years of service. Mrs.
Goddard was also honored when Gloria Witter presented
her with  a corsage.
James  Hammer,  this  year's  student  council   president,  thanked
