SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The Class of l940 had the distinction of being the Hrst eighth grade to enter Lock- wood, therefore we are the Hrst class to have been here five years. How well we remember that hrst year way back in l935 when we en- tered-a group of timid souls gingerly peep- ing around corners before we dared to emerge into the corridors. As the year progressed, we gained confidence and walked away with top honors at the Junior Competition plays. The next year we repeated this feat. By this time many of our members had established them- selves in the Good X'Vill, Debating Club, Cen- eral Organization, and various other activities. As sophomores we watched many of our number distinguish themselves on the athletic teams and some of our girls were elected to ..................,.,. .... t. . a.....a..........-............-.- ..............., . the Leaders' Corps. The following year was topped by our Junior Prom, an event long to be remembered. But the last year was the best. of all. Our Senior Play, You Can't Take It l'Vith You , won the acclaim of the community as well as the student body. The Christmas Hop, ar- ranged by the Senior Executive Committee, was an outstanding event. Then followed the Senior Banquet and Ball which will never be forgotten. And last of all, Commencement! The largest class ever to graduate from Locke wood leaves it with many pleasant memories. l'Ve wish to show our appreciation to our advisor, Mr. XVedlock, Miss Riley. Miss lVest, and all of the faculty who so graciously as- sisted us. Esri uck A lfll ,Q U1s'r, '-10 Elf or 71
