! THE LOWELLIAN L. H. S. CLASS HISTORY OF ’2 3 Just four years ago in the fall of 1919 a struggling, straggling, lot of greenies came into the arena of the Lowell High School. Since that time they have staged a battle with its professors and other classmen, notable for the honors won and the minority of the struggles lost. For the first two years we had a most capable and efficient commander-in- chief in the person of Mrs. Leo Kimmet, nee Miss Beers. Battles putting Waterloo to shame were fought and, lo! the inexperienced were winning, and so a great triumphal thanksgiving was held at the homes of Marguerite Bowman and Anita Damn where we proved ourselves not inefficient in the ways of society. Then came a brief respite until in the fall of 1920 the professors and learned guardians of L. H. S. decided that we had not proven ourselves. With our ire and anger aroused we returned again to the fray. And lo! in the famous “Battle of the Spelling Books,” in which we opposed all other class- men we were decidedly the victors and were given the first spoils of war-fame in learned ways. But then, in the equally famous “Battle of the Pencils and Pads,” we came off second best in the four fundamental processes in Arithmetic. Still we were not to be downed and Neil Bahr, Manford Pattee, Raymond Kimmet, Sherad Henry, Perk Love, Sylvia Rudolph and Ruth Taylor brought us fame in basketball. And again we took first place, convincing all other classes that dared have the audacity to oppose us in athletics of their hopeless in¬ superiority. Being confident of our continued success we left the arena late in May, 1921, carrying all ribbons with us. But, no! The professors still being unconvinced, we were again summoned to do battle in the fall of ’21. Again we displayed our indomitable courage and led in athletics, school proceedings, and social activities, our class being represented in school plays, operettas, in every form of athletics and in the social life of the school. In this last attempt we have indeed proven ourselves and won more and greater battles and vanquished sterner foes by far, some of which lurked in the being of the Annual and in sustaining our school’s reputation, in the plays, and through it all our honor has remained spotless and unsullied, for at last we are looked upon as the sponsor for and the protector of the honor of L. H. S. Pasre twenty-one
