This year, an unusually large group of over fifty students volunteered them- selves, leaving the bidding open to anyone in the school. There was the new added attraction of group packages, which included two or more volunteers. On the day of the auction, a continuous group of stu- dents flowed to and fro in front of the table in the main hall, placing their bids, and trying to catch sight of whether they had been out- bid, and, if they had, who had outbid them. Prospec- SENIORS SELL THEMSELVES tive servants nervously watched the bidding, realiz- ing in some cases that they might be in for more than they had bargained for. When the friday of Ser- vant Day arrives, slaves sported everything from traditional slave garb to monkey suits. Birds, cats, and punk-rockers all put in appearances, along with the customary football players in dresses, and cheer- leaders in lacrosse uni- forms. Lunch block on Ser- vant Day meant a spectacle of hilarious stunts per- formed by seniors at their masters’ commands, and a sheepish Dr. Waring, who was the victim of an ambu- latory kissing booth.

There is a special type of student at LHS who is will- ing to volunteer his time in order to help others. With- out these students, very lit- tle would get accomplished around school, whether it be organizing the Prom, raising money for charity, or providing students with information. Some students volunteer in the nurse’s office by help- ing register ailing students, taking temperatures and distributing band-aids. The morning announce- ments can be one of the | most effective ways of get- ting across information, provided that they are in- teresting enough to catch people’s attention. This year, especially, the an- nouncements are particu- larly effective because of the morning team of Aaron Belansky and Oren Rosenth- al’s clever anecdotes and what boring information in a humorous way. A final example of spirit is the traditional welcoming barbeque the Senior class has annually provided for incoming sophomores on the first day of school. The last day of summer vacation for many upperclassmen is spent slaving over a hot fire, doling out food, and an- swering questions of an ap- prehensive group of tenth style of delivering some- | graders.
