r fi f I ' Wg ez-ff T H E iz E D ' 1 had w H 1 T F T25 f A e WALTER CHICK ADELHAID SCHRAFT ELOISE LARSEN ALDRICH DAIIL President Vice-President Vice-President President The Seniors SUCCESSFUL term from every point of view was passed by both the Low and High Seniors. This was admirably exemplified by the two Senior Dances, the Senior Luncheon and Graduation, which, needless to say, were all praiseworthy and memorable affairs. Allie Dahl and his trusty assistants in charge of the Low Senior Dance given on April 20, left nothing wished for, many innovations being introduced which resulted in its success. The High Senior Dance, after much preparation and deliberation, ultimately became a reality and to those who were spending their last term at Lowell an event,' in every sense of the word. The music, the program, the decorations, the date, all were perfectly and faultlessly selected. A keen rivalry was displayed between the two Senior classes. As is usually the case, they used the Bi-Weekly as their medium and exchanged slams', by this means. The High and Mightiesu showed their athletic worth by sending the in- mates of 207 to a crushing but not inglorious defeat on the baseball field. The Seniors selected a fine set of oflicers as can be readily seen from the fol- lowing list: High Seniors-Walter Crick, president, Adelhaid Schraft, vice-presi- dentg Henry Gibbons, treasurerg Gilbert Root, representative, Niemond, athletic manager, Donald McCarty, secretary. Low Seniors-Aldrich Dahl, president, Eloise Larsen, vice-president, Ben Lerer, treasurer, Simon Annixter, representa- tive, McKnight, secretary, Philips, boys' athletic manager, and Miss Allen, girls' athletic manager. Bushnell, Crick, Hanley, Levy, Basori, Knowles, Morris, Newman, McGowan, Ainsworth, Niemond, Raymond, E. Brown, and Mclllwaine are the athletes ot' June, '23, while December, '23, claims such notables as Dahl, Maguire, Larsen, Lerer, Annixter and Brown. Room 207, by thc way, was the first class to report 100 per cent in student body dues, thanks to the energetic work of Ben Lerer, the class dues collector.

They proved themselves worthy as an example to future classes through their fine spirit and interest in the large representation on teams, clubs and committees and their high academic standing. The class of ,24 was one of the most conscientious, having constantly in mind the welfare of the school and unceasingly working to befter that end. The large number of students of this class who won places on teams proves that the Juniors were not lacking in school spirit, rather, they were second -to none in this respect. President Jaynes Freidman of the High Juniors, a reliable soccer man, was also a member of the 120 S. F. A. L. basketball champions. Benning Cook, president of the Low Juniors, besides acting as one of the main- stays of our second place '45's, was one of our best performers on the baseball nine. Albert Fest and Arthur Cohn of track fame, Louis Heilbron, Benjamin Gold and James Harvey of the tennis team, Harold Kolls, Edward Shelton and Robert Dreyfus among the basketball stars, Herbert Hanley and Guglielmo Miron of the soccer team, Eugene Fulton of the baseball squad, Henry Harris, Roger Bramy and Alan Harrison of the debating team, and Herbert Edelman and McCone Girard, assistant yell leaders, are some of the Junior Class's valuable' contributions to school activities. The Junior Dance, given on March 9, was a most enjoyable occasion, being one of the best of its kind ever held at Lowell. Thanks are due the Junior ollicers for their unswerving diligence in its preparation. They are Jaynes Freidman, president, Marian Smith, vice-president, Roy Bar- sotti, representative, Herbert May ', se retar Vernile ucker, treasurer, Herbert Edelman, boys' athletic manager, :gif!?'Qi?1'letic manager.

The events which have taken place surpass anything done in the society in the past and have taken their place among the leading events in the school. The interclass debate was won by the Senior team, com- posed of Edith Fiebush and Robert Schwab. The S. F. D. L. has elected Alan Harrison, a prominent member of the Debating Society, to the presidency, and under his able leadership much was accomplished. EDMgQ1gdlZg?WN The officers of the society are: Edmund Brown, presi- dentg Helen Ward, vice-presidentg Arnold Schiller, secretary, Alan Harrison, Debating League representativeg VVilliam Levitt, publicity manager. THE TEAMS FOR THE past three terms Lowell debating teams have successfully competed for championship honors in the San Francisco Public Day School Debating League. To date they have won eight league contests and two outside debates, losing only twice during the three terms. Their success is due to Mr. Devaul, the faculty advisor, who instructed the speakers in the art of debating. VVith such eotiperation between teams and coach we feel assured that Lowell will win the championship of the S. F. D. L. LOXVELL-POLY DEBATE Friday evening, April 6, found the Lowell debaters engaged in a most spirited contest both at Poly and at home. Lowell carried away all the honors defeating Polytechnic at both schools. Miss Helen VVard, Ben Weiner, Merrick Creagh and Herman Harris represented us.
