Abraham Lincoln High School - Roundup Yearbook (San Francisco, CA)

Perhaps the most important thing to us now is the Atomic Age. But it, too, will be reduced to a few memories and names in future years. What will our age be remembered for? No one knows. Perhaps we will be remembered for producing the most brutal, destructive war ever staged on this planet. None of us can predict the future except in this respect: What our age is to be remembered for, what high school students are to learn of us forty or a hundred years from now, is up to us-you and me-to determine. For whatever heights or depths we attain will be a part of our era - and molded by us just as the Flapper Days were molded by the men and Women of the '20's. And so the 1949 Lincoln Roundup is dedicated to an era-its memories and its personalities.

UEUIE Tllfl The 1949 Roundup is dedicated to an era-one era out of many: The Roaring Twenties. This particular age was chosen because it is typical of America, her ever-changing ways and her everlasting freedom. The Roaring Twenties - Flapper Days: the days when eyebrows raised as skirts became shorter, of the 1929 stock market crash, the gay, frivolous Prohibition Period that innovated speakeasies and bathtub gin. Pads, too, followed the carefree theme of the era: miniature golf, goldfish swallowing, and marathon dances-all synonymous with Flapper Days. The fads passed, as did the era. Now only a few memories and names remain. Some names, like Ty Cobb, jack Demp- sey, Woodrow Wilson, Red Grange, will be with us forever. Others have already been forgotten.
