WHl'l'll, Prhnijnrl PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE You seniors who have been at Abraham Lincoln High since 1943 or 1944, have gone through some of the type ol experiences incident to those who settle in a comparatively new country, for you have gone right along with a plant lar from complete and a campus void ol' many of the material things which aid in mak- ing a school life somewhat more exciting and interest- ing. That such has in no way been a handicap to you is evidenced in the grand spirit you have manifested and the way in which you have been strong leaders in all phases ol school activity, Each year your school seems to have taken a stronger place among the others in the city and is so well known that you have reason to take pride in the fact that yon have done your part in the carrying on of traditions and practices started by others but as yet not well-grounded when you lirst entered. PAGE EIGHT ln days to come when you chance to retrospect, you will thinlc ol the great carnivals we had in which you participated so enthusiastically. You will relive the march to the Parlrside theatre for a rally and the ral- lies we had on our Plaza on some days when the weather man didn't seem to be on our side. You will recall the football and baslretball games which gave you thrills and more thrills and lrom which you came home completely exhaustedneven more so, perhaps, than those who did the actual playing You will re- member your dances at Aptos and other places, as well as the term plays. These and a host ol other memories should endear you to your school, which you are about to leave, happy in the thought that your contribution has been a definite factor in its rapid growth and development.
