we gggfld Sf Q It was one of those typical September days in San Francisco. The minute the weatherman had heard that all the children were going back to school he had lifted the blanket of fog that had lain over the city all summer and had replaced it with a new, bright coat of sunshine. All over the city, the excite- ment of Hback to schoolw was in the air. And at Abraham Lincoln High School, there was more than just a little excitement. uUnbelieVable,w the head counselor, Mr. Morris could be heard explaining. And a moment later Dr. Hill chimed in with, uCan you imagine-so nlanyf, So manygthat was the first phrase applied to the class entering Lincoln in 1957.

Don Bryant, fresh from his term as presi- dent of Aptos Junior High School, led the class in the organization of the Spaghetti Feed. With the help of Bonnie Hughes, Lynn Roberts, and Sue Holbrook, whom the class had also elected as ollicers, the Spa- ghetti Feed proved to be delicious as well as fun for those who came. Everyone agreed that such an acti- vity was a Htremendous accomplishmentw for so large a class. Bob Lewon began the high sophomore term as president of the class. He must have seen socks in l1is dreams that term, for the Bermuda Hop was the big event.
