Seniors Row 1-I. McClary, president, R. Kirkland, vice-president, B Walker secretary. Row 2-E, Lester, treasurer, M. Selander, representative to council. High School Days Over For GOO Graduation that marks half a century, the Senior Brunch, Baccalaureate, and some 600 Lincoln seniors delve into a new 50-year period as the hope of a War-sick World for leadership. But on the crest of this evolution from student to adult, they pause to inscribe on their memories the outstanding of the best three years of their lives. There was that first bewildering day at Lincoln, the times they sat high in the balcony during assemblies in their sophomore days, the Thanksgiving Day games, the after-school sales, and the strolls down the Abe halls. Finally, came that day in September in 1949 when they returned to school with the realization that this was their last year and with the determination to make it the best yet. They soon got into the swing of things by electing lack McClary, class president, Royetta Kirklin, vice-president, Ruth Brown-, secretary, first semester, Barbara Walker, sec- retary, second semester, Earl Lester, treasurer, and Marilyn Selander, representative to coun- cil. Abstract design and modernistic coloring describe the Junior-Senior Prom, Futurama, which was labeled as a great success in both attendance and enjoyment. With Waning days of their final term in view, the class held the Senior Class assembly Iune 2, the class picnic in the first week in Iune, and the Baccalaureate services at the First Baptist Church on lune 4. Then came the never-to-be-forgotten commencement on Iune 7, carrying out the Half Century Re- vieW theme. There as the last strains of music were issued forth by the orchestra and a cappella choir and the final words of the speaker died out, they suddenly realized that they were no longer students, but residents of an adult World.
