SENIOR HIS T O R Y TELL, here we are, sellout's about to end. Seniors of Lawrence, the Class VV of '4V, about to write our history for all time.” It seems only yesterday that we first entered Lawrence High as little, bewildered freshman. Being not too different from the classes which had gone before us, we met with and overcame all the difficulties which we now know are a vital part of high school life. Determining to make our record parellel that of the pioneers of 1849, we elected Robert De Leo, President; Robert Dembar, Vice-president; Frances Olivieri, Secretary, and Ralph Fabrizio, Treasurer, with Mrs. Lee as faculty adviser. We developed a feeling of pride and school spirit, and became enthusiastic Golden Tornado rooters. In our second year, now sure of ourselves, we found it our turn to look down on the incoming freshmen and demonstrate our ever-growing knowledge. Once more we elected very able officers: President, Gennaro Capozzi; Vice-President, Andy Jonyer; Secretary, I'rank Pezzimenti; Treasurer, Robert De Leo, and Mr. King, advisor. Who among the class of '49 can forget the thrill of becoming an upperclassman and all the wonder that still lay ahead for us? Filled with ambition and energy, we chose Robert De Leo, President; Frank OFFICERS Seated—Mr. KiiiR. Standimi —Pezzimenti. Jonyer, Holland, Iannicelli. Pezzimenti, Vice-President; Stephen Holland, Secretary; Andrew Jonyer, Treasurer, and Mr. Jones, faculty advisor, to head the class. We ordered our senior jewelry early in order to wear it while still juniors and capped the year with a prom, which, in everyone’s opinion, was “out of this world.” Then, all too soon, these wonderful years drew to a close. Once more it was time to elect officers; our capable leaders were Stephen Holland, President; F’rank Pezzimenti, Vice-President; Anna Iannicelli, Secretary; Andrew Jonyer, Treasurer, and Mr. King, faculty adviser. We have so many memories of our last days—the fun and the work, too. Never to be forgotten are the football games, senior hats, college boards, the Lawrencian, and countless other things which made up our last year. We will aways remember the senior play, the excitement of senior day, and the nostalgia of the senior prom. We will always remember, and we will always be grateful for these, the happy years at Lawrence. “Oh, here we are leaving precious f riends, Stepping to a new world, setting our new trends The Senior Class bids farezuell, to all zee make amends. So long to Lawrence High, zve’re at the end.” 16
