Our time is short;, we cannot linger, Soon, rny classmates, we must go; But v e won ' t forget-the good old days They were the test we ' 11 ever know. When I think of ail those good times, We had these last four years, I turn my head away in saneness, And my eyes, they fill with tears. Come my comrades, I hear the whistle And our train is almost due, So, underclassmen and dear Lowell High The Senior Class bids you Adieu.

The plane was piloted by Marjorie Maxell, with Edwin Van Nada as co-pilot and James Kaetzer as Steward. The managers of the ship were Miss Mason and Mr. Palmer. The next stop was to be Sophomoreton--the destination Seniorville, a place seemingly far away and highly imaginative. Nevertheless, the flight was smooth and fast. At Sophomoreton, a new crew was taken aboard. Wesley Benson became pilot, his assistant James Kaetzer, and Betty Minninger, Stewardess. Roy Surprise, Charles Van Horn, John Ewer, Irving South- worth, Edna Schultz, Carl Schultz, Rose Ruk s, Giles Viers, Alfred Hepp, Adolph and Rudolph Massoth, left the ship, while Jack Barnes, Wesley Benson, Helen Gasper, Ralph Potter, Velma Nelson and Ralph Combs boarded it. Miss Peterson and Mr. Palmer now led the group. The blue and silver machine sailed for Juniorburgh, the second stop of the trip. However, pilot Benson bailed out during the flight, and his vacancy was filled by Ralph Combs. The crew and passengers arrived safely at the second terminal, finding that they had flown across the initial half of their trip with amazing success and rapidity. Then, to inaugarate their first really difficult and important flight, which was to Juniorburgh, the members of the flying machine chose Edmund Klemm to pilot them, Jean Hoevet his auxiliary, and Helen Gasper, Stewardess. This combination, just as the other two which preceded tlie 1934 group, proved to be very efficient. Their efforts were exhibited many times during the course of that trip, notably in connection with the Junior-Senior banquet. Miss Gragg and Mr. Brannock were in command of the group at this time. - 35 - Many new eassengers, namely Beulah Collins, Guyneth Gord, Helen Lappin, Eva and Isabel Paul, Dorothy.Golding, Lillian Henderson, Fred Kniering, Marcelline Simpson and Burra Eilers joined the pass¬ engers or tie Class of ’35 , while Pearl Priess, Noland Fish, Mary Arnold, Raymond Bright, Dorothy Carlson, Vernal Krautv auld, Leroy Miller, Anna Pasal, Clarence Daun, Helen Forney, Madeline Me Bride, George Novak, Viola Scoll, Ruth Brochus and Bernard Stahl discontinued the flight. This third year adventure proved to be very eventful and prosperous. The last lap of the journey was entrusted to the abilities of Pilot Duane Seritchfield, Co-nilotess Virginia McLaughlin, and Stewardess Isabel Paul, while Miss Cline and Mr. Smith managed tne ship. Before the take-oif, Genevieve Burton, Dorothy Clark, Virgin¬ ia McLaughlin, Judson North, and Eugene Stouell entered the ship. However, v hen half the distance to Scnior- ville was comoleted, Judson and Eugene left us in .search of other adventures, v hile Jack Ainsworth came aboard. The destination of all educationally air minded people, Senior villa, has been reached--not without a struggle and not without some fun. Every student has undoubtedly been benefited in some way by the flight. During the several years required to complete the trip, th-.; passengers of the blue and silver air¬ plane have accomplished many things. At Sopiiomore- ton, the boys won the intramural basketball tournament while the girls won the volley ball tournament. Ralnh Potter won the Sunor-Man contest sponsored by the L Club . Following this, while in Juniorburgh, the Junior- Senior banquet was given in honor of the class of 1934., and the Junior play, Shirt Sleeves was one of the highlights of that year’s trip. Also, the boys won the intramural basketball tourney, ;hile the girls v ere champions in volley ball and soccer. Ray Boss ;as winner of this year’s Super-Man contest. Eva and Isabel Paul wore the winners of the Name for the School Pat ;r contest. The victorious choice was the L r ' eokly.

Senior G lass 0 f 1935 : Signed, sealed, published, and declared by the above named Senior G lass as their last will and testament, in our presence, this seventeenth day of May, 1935.. - 40 - SENIOR CLASS PRESENT This year’s senior class, as customary in years ■oreceeding 1935, presented a gift to tne school. This gift, an electric score board, was selected as one of the articles most needed in Lowell High School. The score board was suspended, by means of ropes, from the top of the stage, so it can easily be reraised and lowered. It offers a good view of the score to all persons attending the game. The students and faculty of L. H.-S. are very grateful to the seniors for presenting such a useful gift. - 41 - FISHING tsw .fcKe, ' FUTURE On May 15., 1950, while I was taking a stroll down the railroad traoks, a peculiar odor of pork and beans reached ray nostrils. Looking behind a pile of ties,. I was surprised to seo a fellow tramp cooking his noon-day. meal. Feeling as if I knew, the fellow, I introduced myself and found out I was talking to an old acquaintance of mine. Prof. Smith of Lowell High On further inquiry I found ' out that he had met misfortune at school teaching, and he was now traveling the road of poverty. Not having been home for over ten years, I inquired a- bout the senior class which had gradxiated in 1935. He was at first unwilling to tell me, but he fin¬ ally gave way to my insistent questioning. r ' Well, he said, 1 11 tell all about them if you ' ll not interrupt me. I agreed of course, and so he began to reminisce. Jack Ainsworth is in the hospital with a wound in his leg. He wa3 ' bit by a chinch bug which was in the orocess of pursuing a Red Durham Bull. Jack Earnes visited some relatives out West and has never returned. It has been said that he looked in a mirror one day and has not been seen since. Dorothy Cunningham opened a dance hall in New York. Dorothy got so lonesome for the farm that she bought a cow and now gives barn dances every Saturday night, Mary Dickey, Marie Flatt, and Jane Fleener bought a summer resort along the old Colorado river bed. They had forgotten that the river dried up with the building of Boulder Dam. James Echterling, the boy who was known for raising geese--is now owner of a fish hatchery-- he complained that the geese got in his hair. Elvin Graves ha3 a job riding horses out West and says it is a fitting job. - 42 - George Hayden has left the farm at last and is taking a correspondence course in agriculture, although he had slept through classes on that subject for four years in High School. Lillian Henderson and Lucille Hiland have open¬ ed a hearty shop in Paris. Having used all their make-up material and beautifiers their first customer appears without I-without what, we wonder? James Rice and James Kaetzer, those two great detectives, have opened up a nudist colony to insure the safety of all pocket books. This scheme worked until one member found out that Pauline Lloyd, the girl who checked the members clothing, had just pur¬ chased a mink coat. Isabel Paul and Donald Korth are married. They are unhappy, for society teaches that you cannot unite a gigolo and an old maid. Lets mosey down the track, I suggested, where we might be able to find 3ome good food. Say, do you remember the delicious food we used to eat at the cafeteria? We students used to wonder what the teachers were always getting into such deep conversations about at their table. Gertrude Schmidt, Ellen Solomon, and Jeanette Vandercar have gone on the radio as the Harmony Sis¬ ters—they lasted for about three weeks when the radio manager discovered them holding a phonograph record of the Boswell Sisters before the Mike, resumed Prof. Smith. Edwin VanNada has opened a chop suey joint in Germantown, England. His be3t customers are a couple of Scotchmen. Fred Stultz, Eugene Stowell and Fred VanArsdell are still trying to think of what they were studying to be in High School. Harold Gerrich has become a great Biologist by propounding the theory that a worm is a caterpillar which has lost it’s fur coat in a strip poker game. Gerald Alger is now in the Sahara Desert trying to organize an orchestra among the Arabs.—(Dry humor. We hope you all get it.) Helen Armbruster recently built a hotel in North Hayden, where she says, Business is rushing-- right past the door. Ray Bess is out in the ' wild and wooly West ' , teaching the vast herds of cattle to play kick-ball. John Buckley moved to the South Sea islands where he expects to do a thriving business selling overcoats• Jeanne Clark got married and settled down. She now lives in one of Indiana ' s largest hamlets— Grassmere. - 43 - Nellie Jane Clark says she positively will not get married until her present boy-friend gets rid of his other six wives. Helen Dahl has acquired the job of Math teacher in a school in China, where she teaches Pig Latin to the Japanese. Lewis Eich is now in Hollywood going ' great cxms ' . It is rumored he will be a second Clark Gable. He now has a salary of $10,000 a week. What a man Eich i Kitchell Gorball has a job as a model for a company that .sells reducing devices.

Harper still lives in Schneider whore she has a ' hi-toned ' beauty parlor and barber shop, with .Fred Kniering- as the head barber. Kenneth Holton is the new proprietor of ' Ye Olde Tavern ' in Lowell, having replaced one of the late Jones boys. Betty Minningor has accumulated in her present home a pile ' of junk, almost equ.al to that of the city dump. • , Eva Paul is contemninting drawing comics for the ' Lowell Blab ' . She was just recently fired from the rival newspaper staff across the street. Lettie Russell has taken up fortune-telling. It is rumored if she would give up her vast fortune, it would knock the pegs off the Geld Standard. Shirley Schultz is now an old maid in a home at New Orleans, Indiana. She spent all her life looking for a husband. Duane Scritchfield took over the proprietorship of the Rexall, and now sells anything from mouse traps to streamline bicycles. I was struck dumb-(unusual). Gwyneth Strickland is happily wed and has a. mansion on the outskirts of Lowell where she is rais¬ ing field.corn. At this point I became rigid, I couldn ' t pick up my feet—I had stepped in gum. --do. said Mr. . Smith, that reminds mo.

When we became more accustomed to the tradi¬ tional customs of high school, our sponsors issued the order for our first class meeting. To trans¬ act our business for 1933 and 1934 we elected: Presjdent—Vincent Beckman Vice-President-Kieth likens Secretar r -Treasurer-Norman Turner Student Council Represent?tives-Bernice Bo.lin and Harold Kenney Our sponsors were Lies Springer and Mr. Palmer. In order to make us feel at hone, the Senior girls gave x.he rr?sbrnan girls a reception In the form of a treasure punt with a spread afterwards, which was enjoyed immensely. As is the custom of every Freshman class, we selected class colors, ours being green and white. Our class social consisted of a wiener roast at Castlebrcoke Golf Course. Thus ended our freshma.n year. The fourth of September marked oui’ second entrance into L. H, S. This time, vai r,h only eighty two students, ve were not nearly so-frightened.

It seems queer that v.e, freshmen, shall some¬ day be the distinguished seniors of L. H. S. At the beginning of the year the enrollment of the freshman class was 90 students, but owing to the removal of sev ' ral families the enrollment has decreased to 87 students. About the second week of school we elected as our class officers, Mary Tatman, president; Wm. Dorsch, vice-president; and Betty Hoffman, secretary— treasurer. We have two advisors, ir. Shutts and Miss Springer. Me have several representatives in sports and also in the band and glee club. We have attended several parties which we all enjoyed to the fullest extent.

He prepareth unbearable quizzes for us, which look like enemies to us; He. apnointeth our cards with low grades, our work runneth over.

Each week the council meets to discuss various problems, and methods of improving the school government. It brings about cooperation between students and the faculty and in this way there is a better understanding and response to school regulations.

L U Weekly made its initial appearance in Lowell High School on October 14, 1934. With a few exceptions the paper has appeared every Wednesday afxernoon since that memorable day. The first two issues were given to every stu¬ dent and. faculty member, bub following that a subscript-ion price of five cents for six weeks was charged. Perhaps if a few free subscriptions were given every once in a while, the sales of the par r and its popularity wouid.be increased 1 commented the members of the editorial staff. 3i.it students cf Lowell High school do enjoy the H L’ Weekly. Whenever the journalism cIas3 chanced, to miss publishing the paper for a week for seme unavoidable reason, everyone ' ‘helped to cause quite a commotion over its absense. At the beginning of the year the students taking journalism conceived the brilliant idea of having a school paper. Of course much discuss¬ ion must ensue before the final decision could be .made. The commercial department having agreed. to assist by printing the publication, the various students embarked upon their careers as reporters, editors and assistant editors. The main purpose of producing the L M Weekly was not to turn out a perfect paper, hut to provide practical experience for the students working on it. During the first semester, the journalism class had the responsibility of publishing the paper, but be¬ ginning with the second semester a selected staff was composed of a few of the best journalism students and several of the under classmen, who are Out¬ standing in composition work. I n this way much experience in editing is-gained by the lower class- men, and the staff more nearly represents the school as a whole. The L M Weekly has been entirely a project of students, who under the guidance of Mr. Smith, have filled the vacant space which has existed since the la.st publication of the ‘Skyrocket several years past. The paper nevertheless, is of no expense to the school, since subscription money covers the cost of materials used. The platform of the L Weekly is to improve our school, to support all school projects, and to give practical experience to journalism and commercial students. Of course, it also furnishes no small amount of entertainment, but its main value lies in the fact that it keeps the students Abreast of the Times.

Dick ' s Uncle, a bishop, and Aunt Peggy have stopped off on their way to Europe to meet their nephew s fiance. When she fails to appear, her delay causes great anxiety. In his desperation Dick hits upon the plan of passing off the girl book agent as his fiance. Honor agrees to assume the role of chorus girl with the under¬ standing that she remain only for dinner. This leads to complications which are enhanced by the unexpected arrival of. the real fiance. As Dick is unequal to the delicate task of presenting two fiances, it is necessary for Honor Bright to remain until maters are cleared up. Mrs. L. Barrington Dick Barrington (her son) Rev. Wm.

Richard Winslow, aged 22 and the youngest of the family, has innumberable opportunities to do any¬ thing and be anyone but what he desires. His mother, Mrs. Winslow, would be satisfied if he became a lawyer; his brothers want him to enter into the pin business with them; but Richard, chooses to be an authoi?. - Miss Nancy Blake arrives in the Winslow house¬ hold as a guest and is greeted with enthusiasm. Each member of the family makes his contribution in explaining Richard ' s oddities, and Nancy immediately draws her conclusions and decides to helb him if it is at all possible. It might be added that she had great faith in her ability to manage people. - Nancy proves to be a good manager; she manages Mark, Oliver, and Dick; but after a short time has elasped, the situation is beyond her control. Alan, Augusta ' s husband and Richard ' s lawyer, proves by certain statutes that Richard owns everything the family possess and more iS due him. At first Richard is Very decent and a.sks only for a room of his own where he might be left alone. This is refused him, so he takes things into his own hands Eventually the family c ernes-round . When Richard learns that Nancy has deliberately managed him in this manner, he definetely decides to bring her down to his level; this he accomplished. He also decided, to settle the money question by placing it in a trust fund. .

FIGURATIVELY SPEAKING -- The little mouse of thought went scampering across the student ' s mind and popped into its hole again. The students at 3:15 oozed out of the school house like tooth paste out of a double barreled tuoe. The students listen ' to what teacher doesn ' t say and never miss a-word. ! Our English teacher talks like a dictionary on its best behavior. • ■ . . • . . • Two students deeply engaged in idleness. Our teachers could start their voices and then go away and leave them talking. Are you Seniors or Freshmen , is one teacher ' s common remark upon•entering a teacherless room. A ccording to the teachers, a day off is usually followed by an off day. Most students come into classrooms with lips like zippers drawn on a face as long as an after-dinner speech. Some students drop their voice to a mclo-bass while some girl students ' voices creak like the hinges of a rusty gate. The hair of most teachers ' seems touched by an ear¬ ly frost. Students have oeon known to go into mental tail spins. The freshman are so bashfil that their voices blush when tho use Them. There is always one student who will short-circuit the teacher ' s assignment. Most students arc so weary by the end of the day that they have no more go in them than an unwound clock. - 75 - LOWELL HIGH SCHOOL BAND The Lowell high school bond was organized in nineteen thirty two by Hr. Font. Since then it has increased much in size and ability. In 1935 the band, under the able direction of Mr. Madden, played and marched in formations at all of the home football gomes. During this post year they have had several interesting experiences. At the beginning of the school term, the school with the rid of the Lowell American Legion bought uniforms for the band. ■ For the 7 first tine in the history of our school, Lowell High has been represented in the state band contest which is held annually. They performed creditably as is indicated by the fact that they . were.given second division award. The mothers of the various members this year, organized what is known as the Band Mothers’ Club. These mothers have as their aim to aid the band financially and otherwise.- They have given their wholehearted support, and .have aided greatly the advancement of our band.

Carnival, which was first presented in the year of ' 33, was again held on October 16, 1934. The people attending began arriving, in large numbers, about 5.30, the big attraction, of course, being the chicken supper. The gym, which was the center of attraction, wa: decorated in orange and black, and this color scheme was carried out in all class booths. House of Horrors , Toss the Penny on the Plate , Let Us Guess Your Weight , Ring the Duck , Corn Game , and Bowling Alley furnished much amusement for everyone. The senior girls were the winners of the prize offered to the class whose booth sold the most tickets. The Carnival was a great success financially, and all the money went for a good purpose, this purpose being to buy uniforms and new music for the school band. - 81 - OPEN-HOUSE On April fourth, v ith thG welcome mat gracing the doorstep, Lowell High flung open her doors .in honor of a great event.

As folks congregated in the auditorium the band, in full .uniform, opened the program v ith a series of numbers. Hr...Goodwin gave a welcome ad- dross and the dramatics class contributed their bit by presenting a one act play. During a short recces, the parents.were given an opportunity to visit the various clans rooms in which there were special exhibits. The would-be scientists were workings experiments in the laboratory other students were busy taking speed tests in the commercial room, which chart and notebooks showed the accomplishments of the English, Sociology, and Mathematics students. The Home Ec, girls appcallcd to the appetites of the guests v ith their display of properly balanced meals, and the Ag. boys, ‘.not to be outdone, demonstrated the art of «ropc. making. At the close of the intermission an educational film was shown in the auditorium. Music by the girls gloc club followed and the evening’s entertainment ended with a short gymnastic exhibition. Eleven o’clock found the doors again closed and the building encircled in darkness. Old Lowell High 3milcd peacefully to herself, pleased v ith the changes and advancements made in the past four years sinco the first exhibition of this kind. The welcome mat had boon carefully stowed away and lay now awaiting the arrival of the corning year. - 82 - RED DEVILS SNOWIN ' ' EM HOW IT ' S DONE r ?

A sound mind in a healthy body is needed in the race of life, where only the fittest survive. Rather a tanned, hardy robust boy, with a ragged sweater on his back, many scratches on his freckled face, the youthful hero of the gridiron, than a timid white-faced youth, with an expression on his pallid features that almost appologlzes for his very existence. In high school these conditions arc almost identically the same. The boys serving on the various teams are getting an education of which others never dream. We are taught that wo go to s chool and use the prescribed books because of their aid in cultivating our minds, training us to think, and to successfully meet emergen¬ cies, backed by our own judgment. Sports also bring out these things. Self-reliance, one of the greatest assets, of success, is cultivated nowhere better than in football, baseball or tennis. Athletics also acts as an incentive to. those students who would otherwise take no in¬ terest in studies and in senool 1 if • Planning the intellectual and physical together--combining them harmonically--is undoubtedly the way to attain individaal perfection. - 97 - RED PEPPER CLUB The Red Pepper Club was organized in the year 1929, with Miss Peterson as advisor.
