We are reading a story about Marius and Cosette which is very interesting. Then | went to history, and after the current events and a quiz, we listened to the people on Panel Three give their reports. After a study period came algebra where we learned more about exponents. During X and L period Sue Wells, Pat Nordling, Peter Boyer, Pat McDonough, Bob McNamara, and David Cheever attended the Student Council meeting, while various other girls and boys went to operetta rehearsal, band, art club, and other activities. At the conclusion of the activities | had gym class; we climbed ropes and did stunts today. Following gym, | had English. We are following American literature right up from pioneer days to modern times. Today we read some stories by Mark Twain which were quite funny. After school | stayed for basketball practice, and Alice Garrity, Luise Ross, Nancy Schloman, Joanne Sweeney, and Pat McDonough went to cheerleading practicing. | was talking to Eddie Martin our president, and Sue Wells, vice- president, after school too. They said that the two dances we are going to hold this year, one at the beginning of March and the other, the Junior Prom, in May would be as much a success as the food sale we held in January. Later, while | was talking to Joanne Sweeney, secretary, and Ted Heath, treasurer, they also expressed the same thought, so | think that our class will have a very success- ful year.

Many of the undersigned will testify to the advisability of the latter; for we found fun and friendship in belonging to many organizations. We are represented in clubs by the following membership: Dramatic Club - four, Audio-Visual Club - five, with Wililam Westburg as secretary, Science Club - eight, Spanish Club - two, ‘Spotlight’ - six, Art Club - five, including Rob- erta Clements, secretary, Orchestra - eight, Band - sixteen, Glee Club - twenty- seven, the Octet - eight, Madrigal Singers - one, Operetta - lead, Marilyn Taylor, and chorus - three, Red Cross - eight, Traffic Squad - ten, Assembly Committee - three, and Library Staff - nine. We also leave a wish for as much cooperation in class projects as we had in collecting dues and selling refreshments at the operetta; a faculty as helpful and interesting as ours; and a full and happy year.

CLASS OF 1958 Entering L. H. S. in the fall of 1954 the Freshman found themselves in a new mod- ern school with different surroundings and many new faces. They lost no time in elec- ting class officers and representatives, or- ganizing teams, and planning future pro- jects. Bo Chu was elected class president and Andrea Dexter, vice-president, Pat Cut- ter, secretary, and Carolyn Sweeney, treas- urer. To represent them in Student Council, the class elected Andrea Dexter, Lance Coop- er, and David Adzigian. The basketball, hockey, and football teams have had suc- cessful seasons and have shown Dick Ben- net, Bo Chu, David Adzigian, and Donald 65 MacElroy to be promising future athletic stars at Lexington High. The very capable cheerleaders of the class were Andrea Dex- ter, captain, Wendy Benton, Lois Carota, Pat Cutter, Jo Ann Herbold, Bunny Kensley, Judy Porter, Mary Ann Senata, Carolyn Sweeney, and June Tracey. Included in the plans of the Freshman Class for the year were a food sale, a school tag day, a fair, and a paper drive. It is almost inevitable that after its energetic beginning in high school life that the class of 1958 will, on its way up the ladder, be remembered by teachers, upper- and underclassmen alike.

YEARBOOK The Yearbook Staff under the direction of Lois Hemstreet ha s worked diligently this year to create a book everyone will enjoy. Not only the Senior’s activites and achievements are rep- resented, but the underclassmen are pictured as well. The various candid shots show us in the big moments of our lives and catch time for us for years to come. The completed product will always be a source of information and memories for the entire school, Third row: Fawcett, H., Devereux, O., Makechnie, A., Chapman, B., Stewart, M., Crout, C., Fletcher, C., Anderson, J., Lima, J., O’Brien, A., Locke, B., Cleveland, E., Mr. Moyle.

STUDENT COUNCIL NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The outstanding activity of this year’s Student Council was sponsoring Miguel deZevala, a for- eign exchange student from Madrid, Spain. The Council also approved Freshman Class Cheer- leaders, organized a Better Schools Committee, and started the “L’’ Club. A future project is raising $350 to sponsor another exchange stu- dent at LHS in the 1955-56 school year. This year’s National Honor Society, although hampered by financial problems, finished and sold handbooks at the opening of school, pro- vided guest greeters, sold pencils, ushered at a U.N. Day affair, had a food sale, and a picnic. Seventeen new members were admitted in Febru- ary. Plans are now under way for a scholarship for a deserving student next year. Third row: Rogers, E.

FUUTBALL Throughout the season, the football team displayed outstanding sportsmanship and team spirit common to all Lexington High School athletic organizations. Me- morable to local fans and players alike were the cold, rainy, Saturday afternoons on which the squad took to the slippery surface of Parker Field. The highlight of this 19 54 football season came when Co-captain Street- er Stuart, with the aid of a powerful line, plunged for three touchdowns shutting out the opposition 21-0.

They are to be congratulated on their showing despite their small number. The fortunate spectators who attended hockey games by means of Dad’s Club buses witnessed many hard fought, scrappy encounters. This year’s team, coached by. Tom Moon, was sparked by the keen play of defense man John Dowd, goalie Bob Murray, and by the ag- gressive team work of forwards George Fardy, Stewie Chafe, Bob Breslin, and Bill Connor.

BATTER UP This year’s softball team had the advantage expectation. Pat Melly returned to his position of eight veterans from the last year’s unde- feated squad. Joined with the many other enthusiastic girls who went out for the first time, these members had another fruitful season. Under the guidance of Coach Adzigian, the baseball team took to the diamond with great behind the plate, while Streeter Stuart, Al Rongone, and Bill Connor shared pitching and fielding responsibilities. Gene Molloy con- tinued with some classy performances at the key stone sack, Bob MacNamara and Stewie Chafe handled chores at first base. Much credit is due to many other boys who moved up from the 1954 J. V. squad.

Excellent performances displayed by returning lettermen Ed Martin, Spike Paranya, Ralph Hoxie, Bob Mac- govern, Art Makechnie, and Owen Devereux were, in part, directly aided by this new fall sport. Other members who added to the laurels of the track team were Paul Engborg, broad jumper, and high jump specialist Dave Barker. CAOSS COUNTRY After outdistancing four out of five opponents by considerable margin, the hill and dalers went on further to prove themselves a top ranking Cross Country Team by taking second place in the Class C division of the State Meet in Novem- ber. Out of a total of seventy runners represented by ten teams, Spike Paranya, Ed Martin, Art Meckechnie, and Bob Sands placed fourth, fifth, seventh, twelfth, and thirty-second respectively.

The Indian Cheer Shall we let them try? The Senior Cheering Squad, one of precision and peppiness, was always in the swing of things —leading the fans to applaud their teams—no matter what the score.
