1932 The Class of 1932-A , The nucleus of the class of '32fA-the Irvingites- entered L. H. S. in January, 1928, 'their innocent looks showing that they were freshmen. But even babes have their fling, and in September they returned with renewed energy. Three of them made thechorus of Christina of Greenland. P H H Came January, and another bunch of greenies ' tried to fool the Seniors with their manfof?thefworld air-and failed miserably when they asked the way to the fourth floor. While they were getting a footing, someof their more experienced classmates were breaking intoqthings. Renee Reeder and Betty Jeanne Sanford became members of the cast for The Charm School-the samelBetty who later was to steal the show'l as Tot Marvel in Honor Bright. Sports were claiming their enthusiasts, too. Wee Willie Wellet, the sophomore flash, was holding his own in football and track, while' Sam Busich was guarding on the championship basketball team. No wonder the'young ladies followed the teams. p AllfoffafSuddenfPeggy, with Edward Mahla and Betty Jane Brandon in character parts, revealed more dramatic talent. Others were coming-into their own in other def partments, with Caroline McQuattie on a victorious 'debate team. The club rolls for the semester showed that the new' ly acquired privileges were being accepted by many. It made one feel so important, and then there were the AllfClub parties. September, 1950-The football team had the champion- ship as its goal and attained it, with Wellet, Busich, Urbanic, and Donahue in the headlinesj Then, The Lucky fade. Look at the names! Brandon, Reeder, McQuattie,'G'ault, Mahla, Montalto-these' in the cast alone, ,Then the Senf ior AfB banquet. We were growing up at last. The senior year started witha bang. The basketball season was successful, with eighteen won and six. lost. Bu' sich selected captain for the '31 season. Honor Bright, Na' tional Honor Society-everything ,at once. T The coveted privilege of assembly every week had to be relinquished-with the beginning of the new addition. The -Senior APB'banf quet brought out a gala array of formals that left one breathless. Fall, Senior elections caused the first excitement. Then football. Of course we have stars this year-aren't we Sen' iors? Then, The Pirates of Penzance, Senior intelligence tests-for senior life isn't all it's cracked up to be. At last one hundred and seventyftwo of us were eduf cated and, examinations over, we attended the first Senior A banquet. Then baccalaureate and graduation-those thrilling moments which passed so easily. The one hundred and seventyftwo passing out of L. H. S. after closing hour felt little different from the freshmen who had once asked the way to the fourth floor. CONSTANCE BLEYER, '32fA. Nineteen
