SO YCU WILL K GW .. On September 11, 1950. 129 big-eyed, well-scrubbed Freshmen trooped into the never--more -to-be-quiet halls of LFHS. It was on that day that the Class of '54 came into existence. Trying to force a smile of welcome, Dr. Moore stood at the door as we entered. We had never seen a Freshman class quite like this one. But he proved to be our friend and guide throughout the years, and we owe him an unpay- able debt of gratitude. Several teachers began their days at LFHS that year--Mr. Mullin was one of them. Mr. Gilchrist left for the Marine Corps . . . . But time didn't stand still for us. We returned to school in the September of '51 as wise old Sophomores. strolling casually over the Senior Star. For the first time came these people: Ben Froelich, Carol Bartlett. Lorraine Jasinskl, and Mary Haven. New teachers came that year, too. Remember? They were Miss Callahan, and Dr. Townsend. Itwas a carry-the -captain-on-our-shoulders year for LFHS athletes. We won first place in football. in basket- ball. AND in track! . . . . Another year passed. We had lots to look forward to this year. We were Juniors! Phil Somerville, Barb Beck- with. and Ioye Grosse were newcomers that year. Mr. Gilchrist returned in time to help us welcome Miss Bulley and Mr. Lawlor. Our greatest sorrow that year was the death of Mary Haven. She will never be forgotten in the minds of her class- mates. After months of planning, our dream dance came true. We sprinkled star-dust on it, and called it Seventh Heaven . Royalty forthat night were Anne Gieser and Frank Becker . . . . The months rolled by, and in September, 1953, we found that we were the Senior Class of 1954. New to us were Burf Porter, Pat Mannin, Bob Hatch. and John Crowley. There were lots of new faces in the front of the classrooms. too. They were Mrs. Ohlmeyer, Miss Blel. Miss Erik- son, Miss Miles. Mr. Byrne. and Mr. Dohman. MaryJanet Meler was chieftain ofthe SCOUT. Rayanne Walter edited POSTSCRIPT '54, Frank Becker presided over the Student Council and captained the football squad. Anne Gieser reigned over Homecoming proceedings. and Janet McQueen and Ben Froelich were presidents of Girls' and Boys' Clubs. White trees enveloped in a pink mist provided atmosphere for our Senior Hop. An Enchanted Forest was brought to reality. Time moved forward at a rapid pace to a certain day in June. when we found ourselves walking down the aisle to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance , walking out of the doors of Lake Forest High forever . . . into the world that awaited us. 23
