Schedule Night FJC Graduation Fullerton Junior college will conduct its 1949 graduation exercises on the evening of June 17 for the first time in the district, to be held in the stadium on the campus beginning at 7 o'clock. An elaborate lighting system will be employed, it was announced. According to Dr. W. T. Boyce, director, the change from the traditional afternoon rites was made in order to permit attendance of more of the interested public. "Fullerton Junior college's graduation exercises," Boyce said, "are of more than passing interest. Not only is the ceremony a spectacular symbol of academic accomplishment by a goodly number of young people, but also one of the outstanding social events of the year. We trust that by this new plan many will be permitted to attend who otherwise could not. Four sophomore class students will speak at this year's ceremony, according to Dr. Lynn Sheller, registrar and acting dean of men. Georgia Briscoe of Newport Beach Jacqueline Schooler of Orange were chosen to represent the homore women supported by Patricia Runckle of Whittier as alternate FJC men will be represented by Russell Bryant of Fullerton, James White of Artesia with Don Kissenger of La Habra as alternate.
