Senior Class History As a Freshman group, the class of ’30 was indeed noteworthy. We were predestined to follow a remarkable career, and have unerringly done so to the end. We elected Joseph Star. President; Peter Tanous, Vice-President; Joan Strauss, Secretary; Berton Sloane, Treasurer; and Miss Grace Clause, Faculty Advisor. To finance the club we carried on cake sales, and a bridge. At the end of the school term, we betook ourselves to New York and “Third Little Show”. Thus our lives as Freshmen ended, and we were ready for the next step as SOPHOMORES from whose ranks were elected Joel Laskey, President; Elliot Wolf. Vice President; Marjorie Kolmer, Secretary; Estelle Schapira, Treasurer; and Miss Katherine Blank, Faculty Advisor. Helen Friedherg and Marjorie Kolmer were our outstanding scholars and added much prestige to the club. The year’s work was terminated by going “en masse” to see “Of Thee I Sing”, and we returned in the fall as grown-up JUNIORS who elected Rhoda Kanner, President; Leonard Levy, Vice President; Vera Mesibov, Secretary; Peter Tanous, Treasurer; and Miss Katherine Blank, Faculty Advisor. We held high place in the year’s divertissements, which included an Opportunity Contest, the sale of “Fight Lawrence” buttons, and a number of cake and candy sales. Several of our members were admitted to the Honor Society, including Ruth Frankfurter, Alfred Goldsmith, Victory Weckstein, Adele Lewis, and Ruth Rosenberg. The Varsity Club gave entree to John Peyser, Ruth Frankfurter, Katherine Both, Jean Meek, Vera Mesibov, Estelle Schapira, and Harry Buxbaum. Oddly enough, nothing was done with the funds in the treasury which were given to next year’s SENIORS who accepted them with gratefulness and thanks. We immediately elected Sanford Shapiro, President; Joel Laskey, Vice President; Helen S. Friedherg, Secretary; Peter Tanous, Treasurer; and Miss Elsie R. Teffl, Faculty-Advisor. In order to conduct a dance and publish an annual, cake and candy sales were held, as well as a Popularity Contest, and of course large returns resulted from the Senior play, so that in spite of the Depression we were able to uphold traditions of the Senior class. Among those of our number who have made names for themselves in athletics are: Harry Buxbaum, Thomas Leitch, Wallace Hopkins, John Peyser, Leonard Charnay, Alfred Goldsmith, Myron Sterngold, Adele Lewis, Jean Meek, Julia Pastor, and Dorothy Pepper. And in scholastics: Marion Fertel, Ruth Frankfurter, Helen S. Fried-berg, Alfred Goldsmith, Adele Lewis, and Ruth Rosenberg are our pride and j°y. Thus we attain our final goal, graduation, some of us to continue on t college, others to enter business, but all accompanied with pleasant recollections of our association with Lawrence High.
