'Twas not, however, for that particular group of Lf7's to be downed by snobbish stares and superior airs. We survived that first fateful year with our chins still up and our will to win even keener than at the beginning. In the fall of '33 we entered upon that most cherished of all years, the year when we could avenge ourselves. No longer did we stand out as the dumbfDoras, for now there was a new class of Lf7's upon whom we could fix our superior gaze fand we did with our chests outj. That year was not a bad one for we began to take our places in the school life and to be recognized more and more for our scholarship and our leadership. Finally came the fall of '34, and we entered upon the last stretch of our journey. It was the beginning of the end. Our senior year proved to be our best year in every way. We were well represented in every phase of school life and we had asf sumed our rightful position as leaders in the school. And now, the more persevering of those peculiar Lf7's of '32, have attained their goal, they have completed their training at Highland Heights, and we feel that we are a wiser and a better group for having spent three years under the iron rod of our dear old Highland Heights faculty. -Tagv Six - -

LIPSCOMB The kind of man for you and me! He faces the world unflinchingly, And as long as the world exists, With a knuckled faith and forceflike fists. He lives the life he is preaching of, And loves where most is the need of love, And feeling still, with a grief half glad, That the bad are as good as the good are bad, He strikes straight out for the right-and he Is the kind of man for you and me!

There shall be In that new school for us, a greater effort, now long concealed, One that Highland gave, shaped, and awaked, By teachers who gave much, that we might progress, An effort inspired by Highland, now given you, Encouraged by the new, and void of all the guess. And think of us all idleness shed away, A part of East High which no less, Gives sometimes back thy thoughts by Highland given, Her work and play, ambitions long as the day, Inspirations learned of her, and gentleness, For all the students in that Highland haven. 21- -e Tags' Sevens --V - -
