Bernard L. Laverv President Kathirinf. Yutli Secretary The class of 34 was a loosely knit organization during its freshman year, but unity became apparent soon after the Thanksgiving dance. Many oppor¬ tunities for social contact were offered that first year which prepared them to look forward zealously to the opening of the sophomore year. The class held several general get-togethers as sophomores and class spirit became a reality. In the spring they arranged to meet one another under less formal conditions. A picnic was held at the Crown Point Fair Grounds, where male sponsors turned out tie-less and in shirt-sleeves and the women sponsors in old skirts and sweaters. Since 1933 brought to Lew Wallace a wave of social organizations, juniors joined and began to take part in varied activities. With the Senior Honor So¬ ciety acting as an incentive to excellent scholarship, many juniors attained high scholastic standings and were elected to membership; with the Inkpot Club serving as a stimulus, junior students gained recog¬ nition in the field of creative writing; and with the Sphinx and Vivi-Darians organized along purely so¬ cial lines, other juniors found new social contacts »n these groups. As spring approached, the class of 34, cooperat¬ ing with that of 33, began active preparations for the event of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom”. This all-irrportant affair took place on May 27 in the Masonic Ballroom. Impressed by the successful and happy close of the junior year, the students awaited with enthusiasm the coming September. At the opening of the senior year, the class of 34 plunged into the work of their last year with en¬ thusiasm. Special subjects were now emphasized, and many seniors won honor and recognition in various departments of the school. Both this success and the many social events which culminated in the Senior Prom ’ and commencement exercises marked this last year the fullest and richest period of their high school experience. Regretfully the class of 34 sees the close of its high school days with a multitude of pleasant mem¬ ories, recollections of difficulties overcome, and a knowledge of experience gained from its fruitful years, as the rich legacy that is ours.
