SENIORS POSE FOR FINALE All their successors gone before them have done it; and all their ancestors that come after them may. STAFF REVIEWS CLASS HISTORY As we come to the end of the year, each senior must decide which way he will turn after graduation. He must make the decision for himself. As a class, they have done many things together. Through their four years, they feel that they have been quite ac- tive in the functions of LHS. They sponsored school parties, were ac- tive in music and sports, and took an active part in the government of the student body. While they were freshmen, they were initiated into the high school. As sophomores, they did the initi- ating. During the junior year, the responsibility of the Junior-Senior Prom lay on the class. The task of decorating the new gymnasium for the first time was a great one. The prom turned out to be a success. The senior year again brought the class into action. Many of the class went to Aberdeen early in November to take their ACT Tests. Later that month, the seniors again went to Aberdeen but this time for College Night activities. In January,the senior class made a trip to Pierre to see the state legislature in action. It was a very rewarding experience. Also in January,two of the seniors received honors. Linda Durheim was chosen for the Homemakers Award, while Idella Peickert received two honors. She was chosen Sncw Queen and DAR candidate. Other senior honors are acknowledged in this book0 In May there were many activi- ties for the seniors. On May 7th, there was the prom. Then came the week of graduation, starting with Baccalaureate on Sunday, May 2J+th, and closing with graduation on Thursday, May 28th. Each member of the class recog- nizes that the class motto The past forever gone the future still our own is something to be kept and not dropped the minute they are out of school. 2
