The new additions to the school were the most welcomed expectation any of us could have received. For the past four years promises of a new building yet to come were heard by all, but in the Spring of 1952 when construction actually began, it was too good to be true. The Rozmd-up will have pictures showing our new building, one which all Lincolnites straighten with pride at the mention of, Last term the idea of putting in a separate Fall and Spring section was so successful that it was tried again with, we hope, success. Few people realize the actual turmoil that goes into putting a journal together. By coming into room 322 on any school day, one can see the uproar that goes on PAGE TVVENTY-FOUR 'Z QOOA gs UL'!l..S'llQC! in the journalism class. But, in the end, we know it was well worth it. To my staff, I would like to give my most sincere thanks for both their help and untiring cooperation and without, l might add, whose help this journal could not have been created. To Mr. Schmidt, my gratitude for his calm nature when things might have gone wrong. To the journalism class, my thanks for the assign- ments they did for the Rolnzd-zip. As the journal was put together from what seemed a group of diverse and confused pictures into a real book that will always be kept, a real sense of accom- plishment came over each one of us. Despite the strug- gle it seemed at first, we knew that we'd try to make it one of the best ROIINQJ-IIPJ to be published. When you ask yourself, Why am I buying a year- book ? isn't it usually so that some ten years from now you can look back and almost relive your high school days? lt is with this thought that the Round-up is presented to you, as a book we hope you'll enjoy and keep.

The solemn strains of music rang out, and as parents and friends watched, the fall senior class, led by its officers, stepped forward to receive its diplomas. Many eyes were on these ofhcers, Larry Fphron, Leatrice Boxerbaum, Gail Greenlee, and Kathy Ferguson, for it was to their lead- ership and planning that the seniors owed their memories of a successful and happy senior term. Many were the thoughts and memories that filled the graduates' minds that eve- ning of january 27. Some remembered the Senior Prom, Look For The Silver Lining, the twen- ty-fifth and, claimed by the graduates, the most successful one. Credit went, of course, to the officersf especially to Lea Boxerbaum, who devoted many hours of work to its success. Others' thoughts turned back to a less glamorous but just as fun-filled evening, that of the Senior Spaghetti Feed on january 7. Again the success was largely due to the efforts of Larry, Lea, Gail, and Kathy. Memories of the Senior Rally loomed large in some minds. With many other seniors the officers worked hard on this event. And finally the graduates said silent thanks to their officers for a long to be remembered Senior Picnic. emior Gfassi as feat ear FRED SPIELER One of the most athletic members of the high senior class is popular Fred Spieler.
