SCHOOL TRADITIONS Through the years the traditions that are characteristic of our school have been established. Each morning and evening when our country ' s flag is raised and lowered, the entire school body stands facing the flag, while the bugle is sounded. In the fall, our Home¬ coming Week is climaxed with the crowning of the Home¬ coming Queen. On the night of September 27 the ceremony was held before a crowd of 4500 at Gilroy Stadium. The Christmas season was solemnly observed with the Vesper services that played an important part in creating the true Christmas spirit. Baccalaureate services will be held for the Senior class on Sunday, June 1. The solemnity of these services typify the customs and traditions which have played an important part in our school lives and have preserved the spirit of Lew Wallace. A traditional scene is the raising of the flag by R.O.T.C. members, Frank Richardson, Bud Sample and Ed Sample. The Senior Class of 1958 practice for the religious service that precedes their graduation. Baccalaureate will be held June 1. Tears of joy were shed by Sandra Magdich as she was crowned Homecoming Queen by last year ' s queen, Jackie Mattingly.

Golly! We have a lot of English homework tonight! and Are you doing anything Saturday night? are remarks often heard after the last bell rings and the usual congre¬ gation forms at the north door at 3:20 and 4:20 on school days. Our leisure time means a get-together at a friend ' s house after school or on a Saturday night. Dating, study¬ ing, or tinkering with a hot-rod are favorite pastimes of many Wallacites. Many new fads were seen this year. The popular Shetland sweaters of the 30 ' s were pulled out of the attic, reversible skirts became a must, and the ever-popular saddle shoes were trampled on by the new gumdrop shoes. But all our afterschool hours weren ' t spent socially. Much of our time was given to thoughts of the future and the accomplishments of scientists. The world ' s first satellite, Sputnik, closely followed by the Explorer gave us something to ponder. This was the year we became space conscious and began planning our trip into outerspace. One of the favorite pastimes of the boys is tinkering with their cars. Norman Smith ond Harold Scott both belong to local hot-rod clubs. ENJOYING LEISURE HOURS Jim Wegmon and Karen Philipps show off the new fads for the year while stopping between classes for a chat. 14
