OFFICERS President .Jessie Carr Vice-President .... Alfred Matacia Secretary .... Gloria Galban Treasurer .... Billy Stott CL c4 1950 The eighth of September—yes, that was the day We returned to our desks in the usual way. But yet it was different when classtime drew near, For now we were starting our very last year. Yes, at last we were seniors. ’Twas now we who led, And down in the lunch room we’re first to be fed. We had big things to do now and plans to be made. We elected our leaders and sponsors to aid. With Jessie as president, Alfred as veep, Bill Stott we elected, our money to keep. These, Gloria wrote down in her class minutes book With nobody minding the classtime it took. Our plans for New York were excitedly begun As everyone discussed the privileges we’d won. And then in November our class was to see Lane’s very first Homecoming ever to be. Our drives to raise money—we’ll never forget them— They’d have driven us mad, if only we’d let them. We sold magazines, Christmas wrappings, and cards; Our boys played the faculty forwards and guards. We had our card parties; we sold pies and cakes, And rummage and tickets—what patience it takes! The last day of March, ah that was the day We rang down the curtain on our own Senior play! “Mother Is A Freshman”—at last it was done. It was lots of haid work, but even more fun. The last week in April—our trip to New York! Most seniors agreed it was worth all the work. And then came commencement (for all those who passed) The banquet, the dances, diplomas—at last!
