DECEMBER, 199.6 The RED E99 WHITE Freshman The class of June, 1930, gave an entertainment Q at their reception. This was an innovation and augurs 5 U' well for their future in student activities. i l l The entire freshman class boasts almost six hun- rl' a i dred students, of whom 360 are boys, They are di- --'-- vided into sixteen classes: ten are studying Latin, four , Spanish, and two French. This shows an ambitious ---iff ' and scholarly spirit. While the Hrst-year students are purposely held back from entering into the social activities of the school because of their need of a good scholastic foundation, they are not passive in school life, for there are many opportunities for active participation on the athletic teams, committees, and in clubs. They are given responsibilities by being represented in the Boys' and Girls' Councils, having their own dues collectors, and having the privilege of voting for L. H. S. S. A. officers. The first year serves as a preparatory period for cultivating the renowned Lowell spirit, and from advance reports they are learning rapidly. l-et', . -1era-. .. lil l i , Sophomore W What does it mean to be a sophomore? It means F that one is not a freshman any longer, and that one is privileged to enter more fully into the activities of the -33 1 Q school. The names of the students of this sophomore 7, 'T class, both boys and girls, can be found on the rosters 1 of the committees, on the athletic teams, in the clubs, both as members and oflicers. Members of the sopho- more class are contributing to the success of the publi- cations-The Lowell and THE RED AND WHITE-and they are represented in the Boys' and Girls' Councils. This indicates that the students of the sophomore class are developing the splendid qualities which they will need in their future school life-qualities of perseverance, diligence, scholarship, service and loyalty to school and country. This sophomore class can and will be depended upon to uphold the standard and traditions of Lowell, both on the athletic Held and in the classroom. ll H l

The RED E99 WHITE DECEMBER, 1926 Q1 E1 'T g i? , -' K II' 4 TH E H O URfGLASS Again the hour-glass of Time is turned, The old year wearily lies down to rest: And there are those among us who have learned How quickly comes their time to meet Life's test. The Seniors turn uncertain from our shore Into Life's ever changing stormy sea, They only pause to gaze at us once more, Ere they are gone, a cherished memory. The rest shall for a few swift passing years In Alma Mater's harbors yet remain, Until once more Old Time shall reappear To turn the fateful hour-glass again. -RALPH BERRINGER 62133. - H1011

The RED 599 WHITE DECEMBER, 1926 HERBERT L.ONG JEAN OLIVER WILLIAM BALL President Vice-President Secretary The LOW JUNIORS HE class of June, '28, for the first time in two years are together, but this time as an organized body, They have successfully grasped the reins of upper-classmen. The members of the class have been constant in their support of activities in the. school, and the class as a whole has proved itself worthy Low Juniors. The final selection of officers were Herbert Long, president: Jean Oliver, vice- president, and William Ball, secretary. The big social event of the year, the Junior Dance, was held, as in previous years, in conjunction with the High Juniors, and proved a great success. For this much credit must be given the competent dance committee. There are many Low Juniors who have made records not only in athletic competition, but also in their service to Lowell. Among the most prominent are Herb Long, crew, basketball, soccer: Jimmy Campbell, baseballg Jack Mayer and Henry Grace, basketballg Shell Potter, football and track: Ham Hedge, football and track, Bill Ball, basketball. Girls heading the list are Jean Oliver, Katherine Vensono, Harriet McKay, Helen Bassett, and Delilah Redfield. Much praise must be given this class which in the future will add to the firm foundation of Lowell's good name, for they have started out in the right direc- tion and doubtless will so forge ahead to success. lull
