LEYDEN Community High School Franklin Park - - Illinois TO YOU, the students and friends of Leyden Community High School, this publication is presented, with the idea of recalling to you the happy memories of good times enjoyed during 1935-1936. Beside the regular pictures and writings there are several new features and changes. All pictures are made on a larger scale to facilitate individual identification; thus, aside from giving an idea and picture of the groups as a whole, more attention and recognition has been given the individual member of that group. An activity list for each graduate is given under his name; a new type of cover has been used; the snapshots are larger and there are extra pages of pictures. We hope that with these new features we have shown you what actually has taken place in and about school. You will find views of classes, clubs, and of organizations, of faculty and of student body at school, on the new athletic field, and at play. This publication has become a reality because of the support:given by the Leyden Boosters, and we are grateful to them for their cooperation. To them, and to all others who have helped in this publication, we. the staff, extend our sincere gratitude.

The Dedication TO Ol’R two faithful sjtonsors, Miss Eloise Thomas and Mr. Fred A. Krueger, we, the senior class of 1936, respectfully dedicate this publication in appreciation of their service to our class. For the past four years they have Iteen sponsors of the class of 1936; hut to call them sponsors is not enough; they have been friends and advisers to each member of the class. Their untiring effort has helped us to accomplish what would otherwise have been impossible. In our first year they gave us .lie right start; they helped us to get acquainted with school life. Through their encouragement we strove toward higher scholastic attainments, but more than that, they inspired us to take part not only in the regular class routine but also in extra-curricular activities, such as music, sports, and dramatics. When we started neglecting our studies, their friendly, helpful talks gave us encouragement. These little talks made us feel as though we couldn't fail; we just had to keep going forward, until in the end we reached success. In order to keep the class working as one. they helped us arrange little social parties so that each member of the class could learn to know the others. When the time came for the Junior-Senior From, they worked day and night making plans for the final social event of the year. With their efforts we were able to give the seniors a royal send-off. When the junior and senior plays came around they made us work. These events would have been failures if it were not for their inspiring us to do our best. Because of their help, we. the class of 1936, have been able to terminate four happy and successful years here at Leyden. We have enjoyed these four years under their leadership and it is with a fetling of regret as well as of joy that we are graduating. We feel as though we can hardly repay them for their guidance, but wv hope that this book will, in a way. show them our appreciation.
