CLASS HISTORY NE day in August, 1920, some two hundred and fifty inexperienced travelers gathered at Lowell High Junction to wait for the outgoing train. All were eager to start on their journey through new and strange lands in search of knowledge. Before train time the new passengers were welcomed by the oHicials of the road, Miss Lacoste, Mr. Clark and Mr. Crofts, and were given an idea of the route to be taken in the next four years. There was much to do, but finally everything was accomplished and all were started on their journey. After a few weeks of travel December, '20, entertained the new members at the Freshman Reception. All enjoyed themselves and became better acquainted with their fellow travelers. Having spent a year journeying, the passengers, fully initiated into the art of traveling began their second year with good spirit and an abundance of Lowell if ,Q ' ' pep. Although there were many hours spent gaining a thorough knowledge of cities along the route, such as Language, Science, and History, an interest was taken in athletics and many promising men were produced. At the beginning of the third year, June, '24, was allowed to organize and elect oflicers. Under the guidance of Jack Dunbar and Dorothy Byington the Junior Lucky Dance was given and was naturally a success. The following semester when Jaynes Friedman and Marian Smith were in the lead another dance was given with equal success. In the fall of 1923 the last lap of the journey was begun. While Jaynes Fried- man and Elizabeth Allison were in charge there were others who gained prominent places along the route of travel. There were four student body ofiicers on the train, and in athletics there were also many who attained fame. The social life on board was by all means not forgotten. When the Low Senior Dance was given all pro- claimed it better than any which had been held before. The last six months of travel were on hand and though all looked forward with eagerness to the last station to be reached, there was a solemn look in the eyes of all. In a short time they would take leave of their fellow travelers and the pleasant company would be disbanded. However this did not diminish their interest in the activities aboard and they claimed five student body officers and a large number of athletes. It was found that their train carried the largest -number of passengers at the end of the trip that the road had ever had in one train. The passenger list numbered two hundred and twelve, and the travelers felt proud that only thirty-eight had either given up their trip or stopped over to take the following train. On May the twenty-second, Senior Day, all made their way to the dining car for the most enjoyable banquet ever held on board. After the banquet a show was given in the observation car Granada ISI Ti-11-: RED AND WHITE
