L l ii iib. Class of 1935 In the fall of 1931, twenty-one freshmen entered the doors of Lock- ridge High School. Being teased and laughed at as being green was their first difficulty to overcome. This finally led to initiation which was pre- ceded by wearing green for one week. That particular week and that eventful night have lingered in our minds through all the years. We wish to thank the upper classmen for the powdered alum which was supposed to aid us in our high school years. After initation made us full fledged students, time went by as on wings, and in April came the school fire. My! the thoughts that run through our minds when that is mentioned. We could then be found wandering from church to community hall and back again. Those days are not to be for- gotten, especially when the freshmen were allowed to sit around a table on the stage where the temperature was several degrees warmer than it was below. At the beginning of our Sophomore year it was again wander from church to community hall and back again. Then came the grand opening of our new school building. An outstanding diHiculty during our Sophomore year was Geometry, but fortunately we survived. Only fourteen of our original twenty-one remained to become Juniors. We shone in Bookkeeping, were bright in Physics, but quite dull in Law. We entertained the Seniors at the annual banquet in Mt. Pleasant. Twelve of us remained to become dignified Seniors. It has been a busy and eventful year, with tests, measles, operetta, May breakfast, class play and all the events connected with Commencement. We have enjoyed our four years in Lockridge High and will always remember them with fond memories.
