ln l93Z. Our class has been joined by many new pupils, en- larging its ranks so that it is one of the largest in the history of our school. With Robert Little as President of the Senior Class. we have progressed rapidly in all that we have undertaken. We have held before us our motto, Find a VJay or Make Qnef' and never have our efforts ended unfavorably. Since the high school annual, THE PINE BURR, has been com- pleted through the never tiring efforts of its staff, at whose head was Charlotte Heavener as editor-in-chief, we know that one of our greatest problems is successfully finished. Our graduation day is close. Our parting days are drawing near. Four years of joyful preparation for our future tasks have ended. What dangers and hardships await us in life or in other schools we do not know, but with confidence in ourselves and in the Seniors of '32, we have no fear. -Gi,iaNN Cloooivimsi.

Senior Class History Every Senior of our class remembers the month of September and the year nineteen hundred and twenty-eight. That day on which we made our entrance to a school that is cherished and hon- ored by all+the dear old L. H. S.--will never be forgotten and will occupy a lasting place in the hearts of every member of this class. It was then that a noisy, laughing group of boys and girls climbed the steps of Lincolnton High School and passed through her doors. Vsfhat the days before us held in store we could only guess. but with resolute minds and with hearts filled with confi- dence, we began our Freshman year. lt ended with a record that won the praise and recognition of even more learned students, who had utterly disregarded us when we had first appeared, Then came our Sophomore year, which we began with a class of seventy-five students. sixteen having been less capable, fell behind. With our officers as able and worthy pilots, we sailed through a sea of difliculties and safely made the port. Cur success was complete, when at commencement we marched across the campus bearing the daisy chain for the graduation class of 1930. Cur next and third year of instruction was ushered in with the election of oflicers. When Jesse Robinson was chosen President of the Juniors as an able executive, and eflicient assistants were selected. our class began its labors in earnest. Cooperation was our watchword, and it was through the help of everyone that none of our attempts were made in vain. We immediately set to work and began preparations for the banquet, which is given each year for the Seniors. Then on May l, l93l, the Junior Class gave a banquet at the Woman's Club House. Those who were present enjoyed several hours of fun, feasting, and entertainment. and will always remember the occasion as one of the most pleasant of their high school career. Commencement, when Juniors served as marshals, closed the year. Page Tuxervty lout

Class Poem Four years ago we started in, Success and fame we hoped to Win. We little thought that We would find, Long hours of toil and joy combined. But as the years moved on apace, Our highest hopes our fears erase. Through difficulties and through strife, Fitting ourselves for future life. The years have flown as if on Wings, Our aims achieved-thus parting brings. And as we say farewell, I fear, Our fondest memories linger here. May We the class of thirty-two Be ever loyal, strong and true, Seeking for honor and for fame To add to Alma Mater's name. SARAH REINHARDT, Class Poet
