Senior Class THE proud seniors of Lawrence Ilifili School can recollect the time when they were once freshmen. Being no different from the frosh of other years, many of these individuals can remember looking for the elevator, climbing to the roof in order to find the fourth floor, swimming pool, or rushing madly through the halls trying to locate their classrooms. When they became adjusted to the routine of high school and did not wander through the building with a puzzled expression on their faces, they w'ere able to elect William Kass, President; Jesse Combs, Vice-President; Robert Jones, Secretary; and Robert Steinberg, Treasurer. Mr. Clark was chosen as class adviser. The Class of 1950 became thoroughly imbued with school spirit and a large turnout of these freshmen was seen at all of the football and basketball games, rooting for our team. After a very successful freshman year, our heroes and heroines became sophomores. No more were they sent on wild quests nor did they lose their way in the building. Now they could tease the incoming freshman also. When school work started, some of these sophs could be found repeating the Latin words of “Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres” when they began the study of Caesar’s expeditions in their Latin courses. Others were trying to master biological terms or geometry' propositions. Amid all this activity the 1950 senior class showed its good discretion by once again electing very' capable class officers. These wrere: Billy Kass, President; Bobby Jones, Vice-President; Betty Alexander, Secretary; and Bobby Mastuantuno, Treasurer. The class adviser was Mr. Jose 1-1-Page. Time really passed quickly for before they knew it, September of 1948 had come and our friends had now arrived at their junior year in their journey through high school. This was a year filled with joy, excitement, and expectation. During that f all, a great deal of consideration was given to the choosing of officers because of the difficult tasks which lay ahead. Robert Jones was elected President; William Kass, Vice-President; Angelo Daddona, Secretary; and Mar- Seuted—Mr. King. Standing—Maneker, Jones, Sarro, Vincent. got Cohen, Treasurer, with Mr. Page as faculty adviser. Senior jew'elry was ordered early and plans were formulated for the Junior Prom. The Prom was one of the most successful in Lawrence High School history because of the hard work done by many of the enthusiastic members of the Junior Class. In their course of studies these juniors contended with logarithms and history charts and in most cases it was the student who came out on top. Finally, after three long years of expectation, the class of 1950 arrived at their destined goal, the year 1950. Now they were the mighty Lawrencian seniors. Once again realizing the need for good officers, they elected Morton Maneker, President; Robert Jones, Vice-President; Julia Vincent, Secretary; and Emil Sarro, Treasurer. These officers did their jobs splendidly and helped to arrange senior day' and the Senior Prom. As the members of the Class of 1950 leave for new and different fields, they will carry with them the wonderful memories of their four years at Lawrence. 18
