GRAY History of Club HE Constitution of the United States is one of the greatest doucuments ever written in the history of the human race. We feel that the S. O. S. boasts -of being or becoming one of the greatest clubs in Lyndhurst High School. Why? 1, Like the Colonists, we had thirteen original members. 2. We have a representative form of government where every member takes part. 3. We have a Constitution which caused almost as much discussion and def bate as the Constitution of the United States did. Finally the Crankshaw- Alonzo Compromise was agreed upon resulting in the present draft. 4. Membership is restricted to the highest type of boys which are to be found in the junior and Senior Classes.
