JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY 1956 Excitement was in the air as a group of eager boys and girls entered the halls of L.H.S. for the first time as students. This was the day we had all been waiting for. As we entered the building, our group of ninety-two pupils was immediately dubbed the class of '57, Our grade school teachers had told us that the years before us would fly quickly, but to us, then, it didn't seem possible. But now, looking back, it does seem like only yesterday. As we became adjusted to our new surroundings, we sometimes made mistakes, but soon we felt at home in our new environment. The first two years of our school lives, we took part in the band, chorus, dramafics, and showed our school spirit by supporting and participating in sports and other activities. After an enjoyable vacation, we returned in the fall of I954 to find ourselves Freshmen. We were now the eldest of the junior hi , and felt our importance as leaders of that group. As we participated in the band, sports, clubs, journalism, and choruses, we felt more responsi- bilities toward our studies and decided to work harder at them. Even with studies, we man- aged, however, to build up our class treasury to a considerable amount. This year we ordered our class rings and took the annual Freshmen trips to Harrisburg and Hershey. As Sophomores, or silly sophs, we spent our first year in Senior High. We took part in all of the various activities and tried to work harder on our studies. The main events of the year were the Christmas dance and the ordering of our school rings to be given us in our Junior year. After a hot, but enjoyable summer, we knew we soon had to make a decision about our future. To help us decide, we attended a Career Conference in Gettysburg, but some of us were still unsure. While concerned with the decision, we had to prepare for the Prom, given by us for the Seniors. This was the most important and enjoyable time of the year for us. We received our school rings, and with determination looked eagerly forward to the most important year of our school life. Signed, Jane Barton, Historian CLASS OFFICERS President .,.... ....

HISTORY OF CLASS OF '58 In the year 1952, the class of 58, numbering seventy, entered L.H.S. on the pathway to higher learning. Eagerly, we took part in such school activities as: The Underclassmen play, Mr. Bean from Lima, sports, chorus, and band. We soon learned how to End our way around and understood the meaning of the word study. In eighth grade we participated once more in the activities of the school and delighted in persecuting the new seventh graders. After a happy summer vacation, we returned as freshmen, feeling more confident and less confused. That year we had an important decision to make which would greatly influence our futures, that being, the choice of the course each of us would attempt to complete. Our number was now reduced to fifty-six, but the ones of us left were still active in sports, band, student council, and chorus. We achieved one of our desires-taking the trip to Harris- burg which proved to be an educational and interesting experience. At last, in the fall of '55 we had advanced into the senior high. This year saw fifty-four ambitious young people wanting to complete high school and to be allowed to refer to L.H.S. as their Alma Mater.
