Long Ago When The bell rang, and with fear and trembling we, the class of ' 56, entered the sacred halls of L.H.S. At that time it practically unknown for an eighth grader to associate with an upperclassman, but no matter— we were at last at high school. Even we, lowly peons that we were, were considered a class and elected as our president, Phil Hamric. The offices of vice-president and secretary-treasurer were filled by Norbert Irvine and Ruby Wray respectively. We were even allowed to have an Honor Court representative, David Eisler. The next year we really got into the swing of things. We joined clubs and Jeannette Foltz represented our class on the Cheerleading Squad. We met our first ob- stacles this year in the form of Latin and Algebra I. Our class officers were the same this year with the exception of vice-president. Martha Spencer filled this position. The next year was even better. We had gained a little more importance and could now sit on the steps with the Seniors. Our high school was half over. This year ' s officers were Phil Hamric, president; Lois Burwell, vice-president; and Martha Spencer, secretary-treasurer. We entered our Junior Year with much enthusiasm towards making money for the Junior-Senior banquet. This was also the year of Professor How Could You . Nine members of our class participated in this play. Another highlight was the Homecoming Dance. After making hundreds of leaves for decorations we solemnly vowed to cut down all the trees in Lexington. We finally had enough money for the Junior-Senior banquet. This grand affair was held at the Natural Bridge Hotel and the dance was held afterwards in the ballroom. At the end of the year we proudly elected Norbert Irvine as the president of the student body, and Eleanor Hartless was chosen secretary-treasurer. We were all now look- ing forward to our Senior year. So, here we are, Seniors at last. George Ax has led us through the year with the able assistance of James Kokolis and Martha Spencer. We ' ve changed a lot since we came to L.H.S. All the girls have cut off their long curls and braids and settled for a short sophisticated bob, and the boys worry about that casual look. What is it that we will remember most? Will it be the dances we attended with someone we can ' t remember now, the lunch time stampede, the front steps at lunch, the meeting in the State after school, the influence of certain teachers, this year when we won the district championship in football or all the friendships we have made? What ever we remember, all these things have made up our life at L.H.S. 13
