Lincoln High School - Lincoln Log Yearbook (Esko, MN)

Senior Class History In the fall of 1936 twenty-four green but promising freshmen enrolled in Lincoln High. Our initiation proved to be the big event of the year. The threats of the sophomores brought our hearts into our mouths, but we all survived with one consolation -- next year we would get revenge. During our sophomore year Edwin Bergstedt was chosen class president. We seemed to have more fun initiating the freshmen than being initiated the previous year. Just before school began, many of us attended the State Fair as band or 4-H members. This year was topped by an outing. One of the highlights of our junior year was the presentation of "Smart Boyi' directed by Miss Pederson. Another special feature was the Junior-Senior Banquet which was held at the Medical Arts Building in Duluth. This, our senior year, has been a series of interesting events. We have all tried to no avail to fulfill the role of dignified seniors. Our class was well represented in extra-curricular activi- ties. The entire "A" team of basketball was composed of seniors. Many of us will have the op- portunity of attending the activities banquet in the spring. Everyone is working industriously on the Lincoln Log, and as it goes to press the class expectantly awaits the Senior Class Play, Junior-Senior Banquet, and finally commencement. The class officers are: President, Edwin Bergstedt, Vice-President, Genelle Huffmang Sec- retary-Treasurer, Esther Erkkila. The motto is "Here endethg here beginnethvg the flower- Sweet Pea, and the colors - Old Rose and Silver. Under the able guidance of our advisers, Principal Herbert Knuti and Miss Stella Peder- son, we have enjoyed our senior year immensely. C911
