Credits to 152,7 Seniors I7 ' E have been called the most congenial class in the history of L. C. M. With such congenaility how could we help but make progress? The Quarter Notes, our school publication with Mary Mil Hunt as editor, has become a rival of real magazines. An exchange department has been established with the out¬ standing Conservatories in the Association. We boast of the first four students to receive degrees in piano and one in organ. We have three seniors who are taking the special course in Art and expect to teach it. Our Valentine bridge party was a success both socially and financially. One of our prospective supervisors attended the Southern Conference for Supervisors. The whole class orchestrated “Alabama Lullaby.” Seniors graded the State Music Memory Contest papers in Frankfort. We have given numerous radio programs from the Krausgill Extension of WITAS. Pageantry class writes songs for State and National Parent Teachers Association. These are just a few of the marks we have tried to make.
