ww adaiwfm Jim LONG with the handprints in cement of Hollywood's most famous stars are those of the June Class of l940. We have left not only two handprints, but fifteen, one for each of the highlights in our years at Forest Park. Backed by the pressure of four hundred and thirtyfthree students, the Hrst print was made on November 10, l938. At this time Mr. Stanley Heylmun Cnow Uncle Stanley to usj was introduced as our advisor, and the gavel of authority was presented to President Bob Mitchell by the outgoing President of the Class of February, l940. The success of the Happy Hills entertainment, presented on December ll, l938, made a second impression. On January 12, l939, the school scrapbook was placed in the custody of our class. In rapid succession three larger handprints were made, one to commemorate Junior Day and the inauguration of the first Color Day at Forest Park, the second to celebrate the success of the J. J. J. of March l0 and l l, l939g and the third to boast of the first Junior Prom to be held outside the school. This took place on May 29, l939.

The distribution of our school rings stamped with an entirely new seal ofthe tower, on June 23, 1939, was a thrilling reason for still another print and supplied a pleasing satisfaction throughout the summer. At the opening of the new school term, a Forester Staff' of over seventy students, headed by Jim Perrott, was appointed. Next to the handprint dedicated to this occasion were placed-one in honor of the Senior Play, Tarkington's Seventeen, produced in conjunction with the February '40 Class, and one in memory of the Farewell Dance given the outgoing seniors on January 31, l940. The first handprint of our senior year was that commemorating our Senior Inaugural Assembly on February 22, l940. Nearing the close of a busy year, we presented three outstandf ing prints-those of the Senior Farewell Assembly on June llth, StepfSinging on June l3th, and the attainment of our final goal, graduation, on June 20th. The final handprint was stamped on June 25th, at the Senior Prom and Banquet. We, the Class of June, l940, leave these handprints, not as tangible records, but as lasting impressions on the memory of Forest Park.
