Senior Class History Remember the days in 1939 when we were the floundering fresh- men of L. H. S.? just think-four long years ago. But when one takes time out from this mad senior world to recall that year, events are brought clearly to mind. Naturally, Billy Stanley was our Fresh- man Class president, winning the ofiice after a close race with Marie Robert. Then came our big opportunity-our chance to have repre- sentatives on that mysterious and awesome body, the Executive Com- mittee. We elected Nitza Macheras and Chap Lauderdale. Our social activities for the year culminated in the never-to-be-forgotten Hallowe'en Party. Then came the first of those famous Spelling Bees. Remember? September, 1940, and we were back again in the li'l red school- house! A newcomer entered our ranks this year and walked off with the class presidency! Remember him? None other than Bill Yount, from way down there in Nawth Carolina. This year we sent Frostie!' and Latture to the Executive Committee. Did we grow or did the freshmen shrink? Anyhow, they certainly did look smaller than the high and mighty sophs! As usual, spring sprang, and with it came the increasing of all crushes on 'fRoxy fattention, Beanie!j, making the girls' hearts beat double-time. Remember? i94rHLook out, folks, here comes that junior Class! And guess whom we elected as class president? That little five-footerYAlice Agnor. Midge Blain and Preston Hickman went traipsing off to the Executive Committee. Class rings came in, then the japs. fRemem- ber Pearl Harbor!! At L. H. S. everything was hunky-dorey until along came Tragedy- Pete left! The girls were all in a weakened condition because of spring, anyhow, and you can imagine the effect 1227
