Senior Class History Our freshman class of thirty-nine pupils began our high school days in September of 1934. At the first class meeting the following oflicers were elected: Sylvia Kesti, president, Bernard Koivisto, secretary-treasurer: and Clarence Carlson, reporter. Miss Stuckman was our able adviser. With the dangers of initiation over, every one concentrated their attention on their studies. We were very proud of the fact that classmate Bernard Koivisto was on the first team in basketball. The first lap of our climb was completed that year with a picnic. During our sophomore year, Clarence Carlson fulnlled the part of class president. We seemed to have more fun initiating the freshmen than being initiated the previous year. Some of our classmates became known in 4-H Club work on Achievement Day. Many of us were in the operetta, Maid of the Mill. Fred Seikkula won acclaim by winning a first prize at the Tri-State Judging meet. This year was topped off by a party. A new gym and an addition to the school greeted those of us who enrolled as juniors. Sylvia Kesti was elected class president. As this year's highlights we presented Broadway to Hollywood, directed by Miss Kommes, in the fall, and acted as hosts at the junior- senior banquet in the spring. We finished this year by having a new form of procession at commencement. ' Last September a group of twenty-nine pupils, suddenly assuming dignity and poise, reported for their last canto of high school life. Just before school began, many seniors had attended the state fair as band members or 4-H exhibitors. At the first class meeting held, the following officers were elected: Lauri Hatinen, presidentg Raymond Johnson, vice-president: Clarence Carlson, secretary-treasurer: and Mr. L. B. Olson and Mr. Herbert Knuti, advisers. Touch football gained a strong foothold on the boys during the fall, the senior team finally taking the honors. Some special features of the year- Helen Tan was crowned potato queen of Carlton County. Beatrice Lehto, our own expert on the accordion, gained new popularity as the result of her radio broadcasting. Several new organizations, the Hydro- quinone Club, Pep Club, and Swing Band made their appearances. During the winter months our class had a skating party. We presented Hobgoblin House, a chilly mystery play, as our contribution to the theatrical world. With the return of spring, those seniors who hadidone outstanding work in extra-curricular activities during their senior high years received emblems at the Activities Banquet. Kid Day came around. The seniors were the guests of the juniors at the junior-senior banquet. At our graduation exercises, Sylvia Kesti, with the highest aver- age in our class, will give the valedictory, and Helen Tan. next highest ranking. will give the salutatory. Thus. on the eve of commencement, we shall join the ranks of many others who have been graduated from Lincoln High.
