This year we are presenting a memory book, the 1933 Leydenite. This little book, of which Ruth Bade is editor and Miss Benallack faculty adviser, is symbolic of progress. We, the staff, are pioneers, striving to make this annual, one of the first of its kind, a book that will remain near and dear to you for many years to come. As you turn the pages of this book you will find the pictures of the faculty and board members, individual pictures of the seniors, and group pictures of the other three classes. School Life, which is supervised by Franklin Masson, assisted by Evelyn Hansen, takes you through Leyden during a school day. Then come Organizations, in which we guide you into the routine of club work, its purposes, and its benefits. Lenore Kolb, assisted by Louise Sent, is in charge of this division. Athletics are under the sponsorship of Earl Pankonin and Opal Taylor. Virginia Brinke is our financial manager and timer Steinmetz, assisted by Frieda Hamann, Vivian Jenkinson, Allan Fisher. Roger Burrill and )ames Feeney, is in charge of the advertising. And so, dear readers, the stage is set. The program has been outlined and the characters introduced, bit back in vour easy chair and prepare to enjoy cur play, the enactment of life at Leyden High Three

CLASSES... The hours at Leyden are fast coming to an end for the seniors after four years of work and play. The officers who have struggled to lead them wisely, are Henry Schure, Le-nore Kolb, Birdie Amenson, and Le Roy Anderson. The senior class chose, as its colors, red and white; as the flower, the red rose; as the motto, Why not? On May 12, the seniors gave their last dramatic performance, Mr. Pirn Passes By.” June 2 brought the Junior-Senior Prom. Class night came on June 8 with its pomp and ceremony. June 9 brought graduation, and the class of 1933 received their final awards, their diplomas, with a mixture of joy and sadness. The Junior class has Neil Atherton, Richard Bradof, La Verne Miller, and Edward Baker as leaders. Harry Kossack, Dorothy Steingraber, Betty Harrington and Harry Pfeifer carry the burden of the sophomore class; while the officers of the freshmen are Le Roy Jackson, Maysel Rasmussen, Kenneth Hoehammer and Doris Good.
