HONOR SPEAKERS VALEDICTORIAN High man on the senior totem pole this year is Stephen Holland with an average of 93.65. Supporting his scholastic record is a list of extra-curricular activities that would make many a student envious. A natural leader, Steve is known at Lawrence for his keen mind and engaging personality. Besides excelling in classwork, he has consistently won praise as a football star, head boy Marshal, a member of the Honor Society, and last but not least as the President of the Senior Class. SALUTATORIAN Not far behind is our salutatorian, Valerie Silverman, with a 93.31 average. In addition to achieving this high mark, Val has been the President of Gamma Hi-Y, Vice-President of the Buskins, ‘ head girl Marshal, and School Life Editor of the Lawreneian. Much of the credit for the success of the Senior Day Variety Show can be attributed to her hard work. In contrast to the popular belief about the temperament of redheads, Valerie has always shown herself to be a charming and soft-spoken miss. THIRD HONOR SPEAKER The number three student of the graduating class is Louise Finkelstein, with a batting average of 92.79. Secretary of the Buskins, Circulation Manager of the Lawreneian, and Vice-President of Zeta Hi-Y—these reveal some of her many talents. During her Junior year, Louise received the honor of having her name inscribed on the Buskin Cup for an outstanding performance in the 1948 Tournament. 17
