Smith Godfrey Gentry B. Richard Smith McKenzie Coleman BurD ' Ett Hockaday EDITORIAL As members of a graduating class we are now passing another milestone of our life. During other years, we have passed other milestones and there are many others to come. We have long awaited the coming of this time. Now that it is here we have reasons to rejoice and reasons for sorrow. We should be happy to know that we are merely a few out of thousands who started on this journey the same time we did and have fallen by the way side. It should be pleasant to know that our scholastic work and discipline have been so satisfactory that as a reward, we shall pass on to higher planes. We should be glad to know that we are the men and the women of tomorrow and that we shall have a chance to apply the truth that we have learned at Lincoln. We may have reasons for a feeling of sorrow. For when we graduate from Lincoln we leave behind schoolmates and teachers; we must part from our fellow classmates nd friends that we have learned to know and to love Harold.

S erg eant-at- Arms EDITORIAL Just four long years ago, we the members of the senior class, embarked on the good ship Lincoln High School and set sail on a long journey that eventually was to take us to a land which we were determined to reach, that land being to graduate from high school. As the ship nears the end of the journey some one-hundred-and-fifty of us are still aboard while others who embarked with us have for various causes found it necessary to leave the ship before reaching the end of the journey. Each day brings us closer to shore and we can now see land. In just a few more days our journey will have come to an end. There is real joy in the realization that we are so near the port where we will land; having reached our coveted goal. Still there is a cause for sadness when we think of the fact that we will be forced to part from many of the friends that we have formed while we have worked together here at school. We have formed many lasting friendships with the members of our own class and those of the classes that will continue to sail on the ship and last but not least by any means the Captain and his ' personnel (principals and teachers). These last have kept the ship moving and given us the inspiration to stay until we have reached our port. To these all, we say fscrewell with the promise that coming years will find us loyal to the best ideals we have labored to attain. B.

Therefore we wish to take this time to express our hearty appreciation to the members of the faculty, the student body, the different members of the Lincolnite staff, the advertising committee and all who have in any way helped us to make this annual Lincolnite of 1930 one which we feel is a success and worthy of its name. We realize that if anything worth while is to be done it should be. Therefore, we wish to thank you all for the hearty spirit of cooperation which you have exhibited from the time we began this work until its completion. So we say to you: For all the help you’ve given We’ll ever grateful be, We’re grateful for you’ve helped us To win the victory.

We wish to congratulate her and thank her and the other contestants, Misses Beatrice Gulliver and Victoria Warren for a most successful contest. Long live the Queen! Page Nineteen -sag 1930 T jncolnit R jgs Class History k “Yes, I remember the class of ‘30’. It’s history? Yes, have a seat and I will tell it to you.” So saying Miss Lincolnite took me into the past, into her Parlor of Recollections, before a bright glowing fireplace over which was inscribed Friendship, Scholar- ship, and Achievement. Her sweet, clear voice and round motherly face were so soothing I wondered if I were sleeping but didn’t dare pinch myself to find out. “Once upon a time, in the month of September “she began” a group of boys and girls set foot in the castle of Learn- ing. They lived on the first floor of the castle and were called Freshmen. Soon a party was given by those who lived on the second floor that they might feel at home in the castle. The Newcomers ex- plored every nook and soon each chid was gathering seeds of Learning from its rooms. Some planted these seeds, some threw them away, and some did not even bother to pick them up. The Honor Roll was the prize given those who planted theirs. Anna Sampson, Roberta Samp- son, Mollie Nix and Frances McCampbell were the first four freshmen whose names stood out. “How the time flew! Soon September came again and upstairs to the hall of the Sophomores where once again the rooms were explored and the Learning shown among them. This year, several boys stand out in athletics. The close of the year giving ‘Mac’ Coleman a cup as best boy athlete for that year and ‘Cliff’ War- ren a letter. Roberta and Anna Sampson (Sampson in the strength of their knowl- edge) still leading in the scholastic abil- ity, while Mollie Nix, Hiley Hill, Bernard Goss, Mineola Briscoe and Hortense Mackey followed. “Once more the scene changed, this time to the third floor of the castle where they were named Juniors. B. R. Smith was editor-in : chief of the school paper during the first semester and Eleanor Westmoreland, Jonnie Thelma Nix, Ada Dickerson, Loraine Walker, Marie Mar- shall, and Ethel Thomas joining in the ranks of the Honor Roll. ‘Mac’ Coleman led us to victory in football, and ‘Cliff’ Warren made a success of basketball. The Junior Play! A cast of twenty-two Juniors, presented on May 3, a three-act comedy of college-life filled to the brim with laughter and love-making. George Hurse, Marie Marshall, Helen Redmond, Hiley Hill, Burdette Hockaday and Harry Johnson took the leads.” “Miss Lincolnite paused, and I scarce- ly dared breathe for fear I would be blown away just as the story was go- ing its supposed last lap. However, she soon came out of her trance and con- tinued with her tale. “Dignified, sedate, and very conceited they mounted the stairs to the last and most difficult floor. Here under the guidance of Miss Smothers and Mr. Mars- den in English Literature things began to look dark and the seeds of Learning seemed very, very, slippery. There were many breathless moments when all the seeds seemed lost forever. Nevertheless, a courageous attitude was assumed and after few auspicious moments all was well again. Harry Johnson, Cecil Reeves, and George Hurse were locally known as an all-star quartette. Laura Lankford won many praises with her golden voice. They had their orator too, in the person of Minnie Summers. In addition to the stars of the past year, new dramatic fa- vorites sprang up: Thelma Johnston, Tannon Caskey and Edith Williams were great successes. “The football and basketball seasons were brought to a triumphant close un- der the leadership of ‘Mac’ Coleman in football and ‘Cliff’ Warren in basketball. The school paper was edited by one en- tire Senior staff. Harold Strothers was the Editor-in-Chief. “Soon their time was spent and with a mixture of anticipation and sorrow in their hearts these boys and girls passed the portals of the castle door and con- tinued down the path of life. Some went to higher castles of learning; some en- tered the field of matrimony and others sought success each in his own way. Life was full of song and adventure when I saw them last and I pray to God that they will never suffer the pangs of In- gratitude, Failure and Remorse — that Life will always hold for them the hope and promise that they cherished when I knew them.” The fire died — its embers faded. The old lady too left me. I rubbed my eyes in wonder. I was sitting at home before my desk and before me lay a sheet of paper bearing two words — “Class His- tory.” Marie Marshall, Glass Historian. Page Twenty — asS 1930 Bea- R incolnit R Honor Society The Lincoln High School Chapter of the National Honor Society was organized in 1926.

T JNCOLNIT R Class Prophecy My heart is heavy and I have the blues So I go to my home for an all night snooze. I sleep and I dream of my classmates, the dears! And at last I awake to find I’ve slept ten years. I’ll hie me to the old familiar school and see who now is there. I started my journey, the weather was fair. I opened the office door with a jerk And there was Jean Williams, the busy, fair clerk, And to my surprise in the corner there stood Vice-Principal Tannon Caskey in a pleas- ing mood. I next visited the gym and to my surprise There were Mary Warfield and Beatrice Culliver giving exercises. I learned that Coach Shepard had gone far away And now the coach was Mac Coleman, so gay. The chemistry room still with bad odors were filled And the new instructor was sedate Mar- jorie Hill. Then traveling on I saw many others, Nor did I stop till I met Harold Strothers. B. Richard was with him still handsome and tall. They made up the editorial staff of the notable “Call”. Oh how I begged them their paper to see And I saw many things that were start- ling to me. I saw in the headline, yes, of course, Mrs. Helen Redmond Mitchell sues John for divorce. And then in the Society Column I did see Mrs. Frances McCampbell Lyons en- tertains with a tea. I saw that Sergeant Hill with his wife and wee daughter Plad been sent to active duty on the Mexican border. I saw that Dr. Harry Johnson of this city Had an accident in his lizzy. Oh what a pity! He is now in General Hospital No. 2 Under the care of Dr. Arnold and Dr. Swearingen too. In the news of the school I notice that music Was being taught by charming Lois Davis, who uses Many compositions of the now famous Melvin Handsome Who writes sacred music and popular dance songs. I noted that Howard Bell and famous Doc “Fojo” Are being held for investigation, you know ' Until they can prove to the big, bold policeman That the famed Musician’s Club does not stoop to sell gin. But these were not all of my classmates so dear. Where were they? Strothers, what’s that I hear? Oh, thank you so much for your valuable time And now the rest of the class I will find. Down on the corner of 18th and Vine Is the beautiful mansion of Hortense Mackey, so fine. She now has a husband whom I do not know And two chubby children who play on the floor. Now I see in New York, on the stage Mr. Leroy Reed is now all of the rage. And Cecil Reeves, too, is there and very tame Singing his way to fortune and fame. The vision now turns to Hollywood’s pit And I see Thelma Johnston starring in “It”. George Hurse, F. M. McGinnis and Alice Johnson with skill Complete the cast and Oh! what a thrill To see Miss Calanthe Brown so petite Startle the audience with her light, pretty feet! Oh! who is that in the audience I see? Oh, it’s Marie Marshall with little “Ches” on her knee, And next to her sits little Ethel; “Nuff said” Her name is still Thomas for she mar- ried Fred. Now back to the stage I turn with a whirl And see Eleanor and Gabrella as famed dancing girls. And there I see in the orchestra fine, Gallant Bernard Goss who is keeping the time. Oh! he’s the director so graceful and prim And the hot Jazz orchestra is owned, too, by him. My vision now goes to another big state There I see a large college and what’s this? Oh, wait The champions of the world I now see approach A great basketball team with “Cliff” Warren as coach. After meeting the Principal, Arthur Her- ring, I see Anna and Roberta of the large faculty. Though all of my classmates I have not found I’m weary and worn and forced to lie down To sleep I’ll return where perhaps to remain, Till consciousness comes and I my dream may regain.

Laura Lankford Page Twenty-Four esS 1930 The Senior Girl Reserve group was organized in October with the following officers: Thelma Johnston, President; Grace V. Brown, Vice-President; Mary Baldridge, Sec- retary; Lucy Williams, Assistant Secretary; Snova Perkins, Treasurer; Miss Glenn, Advisor. These officers with the help of the various committees have put in a busy and suc- cessful year, not through the interesting meetings, teas, parties, etc,, but they have tried to spread cheer to others. During the World Fellowship period a Japanese tea was given in honor of Mrs. Bella McKnight, the National G. R. Secretary. At Xmas time the group visited the Old Folks’ Home at Little Blue, Mo., and pre- sented a short program and gave candy to the inmates. At the Valentine season, valentines were made by the girls and these together with candy were presented to th inmates of the Leeds Sanatorium, a short program was also rendered. Other interesting programs were carried out by these girls but space just permits finally the mention of the Glee Club organized during the year and which on several occasions furnished numbers for various programs among which was the Recognition Services held at Centennial Church at which time this Glee Club formed the choir for the entire service. May we mention here Miss Cross, our G. R. Secretary, whose untiring efforts have helped make such a complete year. The Seniors Dictionary ( Dedicated to the Juniors ) Admit— A necessary evil.

Any regular student of Lincoln High School is eligible for membership, but every member must maintain a reputation for conspicious good character and deportment. Annually and not later than October of each year, cne representative is elected from each fresh- man and sophomore group, two from each senior and junior group and one from each trade group. At the first meeting of the Student Council, one junior and one senior are nominated for presi- dent. The entire student body votes and chooses the president. The election was won by the Junior candidate this year. From the members of the student council there are organized five committees which care lor the general welfare of the school. These com- mittees are the department of safety, department of awards, department of investigation, depart- ment of foreign relaions, department of recreation and the department of justice. All committees consist of a department head and faculty advisor. The department heads and their advisors are as follows: 1. Safety — Guion Bluford; Mr. Thompson, Advisor. Awards — Alexander Jones; Miss Baker, Advisor. Investigation — Richard Clarkson; Mr. Mayberry, Advisor. Foreign Relations — Jaunita Mullen; Miss Brown, Advisor. Recreation — Laura Lankford; Mr. Jeffress, Advisor. Justice — George Murdock; Mr. Griffin, Advisor. The officers of the Student Council for the year 1929-30 are as follows: James King, President; Hiley Hill, Vice-President; Christine Cole, Secretary; Laura Lankford, Assistant Secretary; Florecia Fields, Treasurer; Alberta Lewis, Assistant Treasurer; Paul Davis, Sergeant-at-Arms. The faculty advisors to the Student Council are Miss Nolan, Miss Brown, Mr. Jeff- ress- Mr. Mayberry and Mr. Thomas. The outstanding accomplishment of the Student Council this year is the checking system. It has been a success. It has done away with many of the losses of articles at the socials and the wraps aresafer. 2 . 3. 4. 5. 6 . What’s the Use? If you do not have school spirit, the Lincolnite calls you names. If you do have school spirit, everyone says you’re trying to show off. If you don’t buy an Activities Ticket, the Athletic Association will “go broke.” If you do buy an Activities Ticket, you have to do without your lunch for a month. If you don’t go out for football, you are a slacker. If you do go out for it, you get your nose broken and an F as well. If you hang around the girls, you are a “mollycoddle.” If you leave them alone, you are a “rough neck” and a “low brow.” If you pass in all your work, you had a “pull”. If you flunk out, you’re a “feeble wit.” So, what’s the use??? Grace Vivian Brown - «3 1930 Ess- gws n; — T . incolnit F. kw- R. O. T. C. As it has been in previous years, the R. 0. T. C. has been one of Lincoln’s most out- standing departments throughout the entire school year. Under the efficient direction of Master Sergeant William L. Bryson, United States Army, Retired, the Unit has been able to hold itself far above reproach. One of the outstanding performances of the unit during the year was its taking part in the Armis- tice Day Parade. In the parade were all the R. O. T. C. Units of the city together with various American Legion Posts. Lincoln’s Battalion made such a favorable impression in the parade that many creditable comments were received from citizens of hgh esteem. During the annual inspection by Captain Mitchell, keen rivalry among companies was exhibited. The companies were rated as follows: First place, Co. B, com- manded by Captain Cecil Reeves; Second place, Companies C and D were so evenly matched that they were declared a tie. Company A, although last was not far behind the other companies. Cadet Lloyd Haymes and Edward Brown, Co. A; Cadet David, Jollie, Co. B; Cadet R. L. Guinn, Co. C, and Cadet Meril McLin, Co. D, were given special men- tion for their neatness. The honor of Major of the Battalion was given to Cadet Hiley Hill while that of honorary Major went ot Cadet Cecil Reeves. Other officers contributing to the success of the Battalion are: Cadet Captain Paris Harrington, Supply Officer; Cadet First Lieu- tenant Harry Johnson, Adjutant of the Battalion. The honor of Sponsor Major of the Battalion was conferred upon Miss Charlotte C. Nix. The Honorary Captains are: Miss Juanita Marie Marshall, attached to Co. A: Miss Roberta Sampson, attached to Co. B; Miss Frances McCampbell, attached to Co. C.; Miss Ethel Lee Thomas, attached to Co. D, and Miss Calantha Brown, attached to the Band. s� 3 1930 L incolnit R I ft S 85 Giftonian After looking about and observing my classmates of four years, I discovered an air of wistfulness and sadness about some of the fold.

Ada Dickerson Page Twenty -Eight ■« 1930 Brs- -3 $ R incolnit R Psychology Club Each year finds certain groups of students who have the best interest of the school at heart, advocating new features for its improvement. This year has been no excep- tion to the rule. The Psychology class was organized into a club through which some very constructive and uplifting w T ork has been started at Lincoln High. Every student in the class is a club member. This is one of the largest classes in the school, and the largest Psychology class which has been enrolled for several years. The club was organized w T ith the purpose of sponsoring a campaign for better be- havior at Lincoln High, and proceeded to take upon its shoulders the work of helping the students to follow the standards of better order and conduct. Members: Denver Adams, Woodrow Adkins, Sylvester Allen, Tannon Caskey, George Hurse, J. R. Williams, Cecil Reeves, Sappho Allbright, Mary Baldridge, Virginia Barker, Mineola Briscoe, Grace V. Brown, Della A. Burroughs, Ardath Cave, Beatrice Gulliver, Ruth Hogan, Arlethia Hopson, Dorothy Hood, Jessie Jackson, Margaret S.

THESE QUESTIONS HAVE CAUSED INSANITY AMONG THE TEACHERS 1. I lost my admit, may I get another one? 2. Shall we write on both sides of the paper? 3. Will you repeat the question? 4. Shall this be in ink? 5. Can I go? 6. What did you say the lesson wms? 7. Can I have some more paper? 8. May I sit with Eleanor? 9. When do we get our grades? 10. Di dn’t I do better work than him? 1930 £ T jncolnit R YOUR FUTURE And the future of every graduate of high schools and colleges is bound up, inevitably, with the Negro press. The great papers of the race, The Call, The Courier, The Defender, The Afro-American, The Amsterdam News and others will insure a healthy public opinion in which you can grow to your possibilities and your efforts will reap the reward they deserve. Make them better servants for you and the race, not only by subscribing for them, but by patronizing the firms who advertise in their columns. KANSAS CITY CALL EBLON THEATRE Equipped with R. C. A.
