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.

VALEDICTORIAN This year's health ads may suggest that you get your vitamins in the form of warmth and sunshine at the beach, but why travel when you can bask in the enriching heat of a Valedictorian's 96.l6? The class of 1944 has at its helm Lois Dalis, a bright, charming, industrious miss. Besides being innately intelligent she leads a well-rounded normal life and is an active participant in the Honor Society, Latin Club, and Math Club. SALUTATORIAN Marjorie Hirsch with an impressive average of 95.52 is Salutatorian. She has achieved this high mark in three and a half years. In her spare time Marjorie managed to become a member of the Honor Society, Science Club, Math Club, and almost any other activity club in school. Barnard is her next destination, where, no doubt, she will come out on topf' THIRD HONOR SPEAKER Not far behind is Robert Broad with a batting average of 94.65. Bob, Editor-in-Chief of the Lawren- cian, has been on a writing streak from the day he entered Lawrence. Sections of the Sachem, Mental Pabulum, and Lawrencian have been penned by him. In a few years you will probably find his by-line at the head of some well-known column. And to think, we knew him when! 'L . . cf p .
