one-hundred percent in the Lore drive and we also received the Lore banner. Again, on the varsity football and basketball teams we supplied the best players. In class basketball we were tied with the Juniors for first place, and we won the play of Our Class Play, THAT'S THAT, was, as the critic's say, the best ever produced in L. H. S. The greatest event in our Senior year was the Washington Trip,which We all worked so hard to raise money for, by selling magazines and candy, and by having bake sales, and this is the first year that the commercial girls held a separate supper to help raise money. We shall always remem- ber our trip and look back upon it with pleasure in later years. But at last we must move on, as there is other work to accomplish. But, oh, how it grieves us to think that we must pass out from our Alma Mater! The class of '26 will always revere and honor Her, and hope that the follow- ing classes will live up to the ideal set by us- Ea' En.--1.5 L.

History of the Class of Nineteen T wenty-six Q OUR YEARS have come and gone since the class of '26 first entered Lewistown High School. They have been four years filled with 1 happiness and occasionally with some sorrow. In the fall of '22 2 we entered L. H- S. We numbered 220, the largest class up to this time, and we were Greenies?' too, but the green soon wore off, and we held a class meeting at which time we elected the following officers: President, George Ross, Vice-President, Sara Kneppg Treasurer, Robert Pickettsg Secretary, Russel Jacobs. We selected our colors, crimson and white, and have not changed them to this day. In our Freshman year we had two men on the Varsity Football Team. In Class Basketball and Track we showed the upper classmen that they had to step, Our girls' team had better luck and tied the J unior's for first place. Our only social event that year was a New Year's party, which was a great success. Again the school bell resounds and our number has dwindled to 175, gay but serious Sophomores. Our officers who guided us through this year were: President, Edward Lynn, Vice-President, Marjorie Burnsg Secre- tary, Sara Kneppg Treasurer, Russel Jacobs. During this year we backed our Alma Mater in everything that came along. We had four men on the varsity football team. In basketball we fell back, but we made up for this in track, taking second place. In the Lore drive we also took second place. The wheel of time revolves and we are upper classmen, or Juniors, and 130 strong. We immediately held a class meeting and elected the following oiiicers: President, Charles Stambaughg Vice-President, Ruth Stephensg Secretary, Sara Kneppg Treasurer, Donald Swyers. In class athletics we did not carry OE any honors, but at least we were good sports. But on the Varsity we shone. Our class Track Team received second place. We were also highly represented in debating and in the k'Lore as we had twelve members on the staff. Our only social event was the PROM which would Hll a book, but I will only mention that it was one of the best ever staged by a class in L. H. S. And of course, we must not forget our memorable picnic which was held at Faust's Park. At last we are Seniors, and our original 220 have dwindled to 92, but of course these are only the best of those who started. Our oliicers for this year are: President, Ned Freed, Vice-President, Sara Kneppg Secretary, Helen Montgomery g Treasurer, Charles Leonard: Our first event was 4179 i
