Wfpf THAT 0Pffvf0Af Fafswf HE latest census 'shows that Lawrence High consists of seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen . . . but try to convince the seniors of that . . . As usual each class formed a club . . . and at- tempted to collect dues . . . we elected officers . . . and wondered where they were at meeting time . . . or didn't you go to any meet- ings? . . . We crowded our lockers with pictures . . . Oh, Frankie! . . . They made'us tear them out . . . Poor Frankie! . . . And we were absent when Boris took the class pics . . . and he won't take them over! . . The seniors were ever so busy . . . or so they seemed . . . hustle, bustle . . . and they made us come to school when it was so dark . . . We gave movies, with varying success . . . we raised money for several drives . . . made our school a part of the war effort . . . and look at those bond and stamp sales! And thus we are prepared, with this brief prologue, for Act Two of the 1944 Lawrencian.

ed: Calvelli, Miss Griffith, Mr Simmonds, Louis. CLASS OF 1944 N ten short months we've rightfully earned the title of Seniors. Carrying on in the tradition of Lawrence we managed the Lawrencian, the Mental Pabulum, the Honor Society, and almost every other function of academic life. We have imbedded the numerals 1944 into the walls of Lawrence, under the gravel in the stadium, on the seats of the well-worn desks, in the hearts of our teachers, and most of all in our own minds. l944 has become a symbol of everlasting friendship, of loyalty, of work and play. A mass of 250 odd students welded into the Class of '44 passes through Lawrencian portals. Commencement over, goodbyes said, We, the Class of '44, march on to an unknown future. A momentary pause as the events of a very busy year pass in review . . . Seniors . . . proud . . . arrogant . . .
