 Icl55 4l'l5t yLlj Four years ago the records were opened on a new class of L. H. S., the class of 1955. As we started our school term in September with 51 green but eager-to-learn freshmen, ♦he out- standing characters were: Mr. Hoi land-sponsor; Norman Gillick-president; Ruth Truelove-vice- president; Bill Fisher-boys' treasurer; Pat Pennington-girls' treasurer. We were very proud to have two boys. Bill Fisher and Norman Gillick, make the basketball team. Among other pleasures was a hay ride and a trip to Spring Mill State Park. Although with all the excitement and activities eight lost out in the struggle for Finer education. In the fall of 1952 we once more take our place as students of L. H. S. Even at the beginning of this year we lost some, for only 44 returned. This year the ones to take the responsibility of our class were: Mrs. Young-sponsor; Jack Clark-president; Bill Fisher-vice-president; Donna Cox- secretary; Eddie Walton-boys1 treasurer; Pat Pennington - girls' treasurer. That year we enjoyed a Christmas party and a trip to Spring Mill State Park, yet four were marked off of the records as far as the class of 1955 was concerned. Here it is 1953 and we are juniors, 39 of us. With the spotlight on Miss Crooke and Mr. Young as sponsors, Bill Fisher-president; Jack Clark-vice-president; Barbara Riggins-secretary; Ruth Truelove-treasurer. There was a lot of excitement that year. We received our class rings and planned a most successful Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. Also the juniors were in the sports activities with Bill Fisher and Norman Gillick progressing rapidly and Chester Thompson as yell-leader. We ended that year with a trip to Spring Mill, and still 2 less. Well , at last we are seniors, bubbling with joy. This is our most wonderful year. Being ambitious we published a monthly paper and a yearbook. Leading the class were: Mr. Jones- sponsor; Bill Fisher-president; Jack Qualkinbush-vice-president; Donna Cox-secretary; Louise Sutton-treasurer. Those leading in sports activities were Bill Fisher and Norman Gillick. Del orise Phillips and Janet Gibson were yell leaders. Even with the excitement of a trip to Washington D. C., a banquet and prom, 2 dropped out of the class. And the moments we shall never forget are our baccalaureate and commencement. 19
