During the year we purchased purple tams with the letters L. H. S. in old gold. People have been kind enough to say that these add much to our appearance.

Declamatory Frank Wesfon Ilene I5'ognc'1' Eddie Linn Eddie Linn put Lockridge on the Declamatory map during the year 19234-153235, with his consistent victories in the oratorical division. He won first in five contests before going down to defeat in the district contest at Fort Madison. He won the pre-county contest at Libertyville, the county at Fairfield, the preliminary state contest at Mt. Pleasant, the sub-district contest held at Lockridge, and the pre-district at Burlington. We had our eyes on the county cup, but our chances were ruined by the measles epidemic that kept our humorous reader Ilene Bogner, and our dramatic contestant F1'ank lfVeston out of' the event. Eddie Linn's win placed us in second place, Fairfield Freshmen and Pleasant Plain tieing for first honors. Ilene Bogner used the selection, t'Friday Afternoon at the Yillagre School, Frank Weston won tirst place at the preliminary state contest at Mt, Pleasant with the reading, The Last Flight, and Eddie Linn chalked up his victories with the oratorical selection, The National Recovery ot' l'haraeter.
