The RED E:-9 WHITE DECEMBER, 1926 JAMES TIPPETT ' LOUISE SCHWEIFLER Historian Valedictorian C' lass History Again the silent wheels of time Their annual round have driven. ANUARY 18, 1922, found us, three hundred strong, eagerly waiting to enter the little red school house. For eight years we had looked forward to this moment and at last the long awaited time had arrived. That first day was spent in registration, and the second saw the newcomers at work, Hlled with enthusiasm, interest, and application. Thus we showed ourselves to be serious and industrious, and we promised to become worthy LOWELLITES. ln a few weeks we were the guests at a reception given by the high seniors. lt was a hearty, cordial welcome and was enjoyed by all. A dance was the concluding event of the day and served the purpose of making everyone better acquainted with his classmates. During the next few months the newness of high school life began to wear off, so more attention was given to activities outside of the schoolroom routine, athletics especially. A good number of our classmates turned out for sports, and some proved very adept in this line. Our sophomore year was not vainly spent. We increased our athletic turnout and were quite active in other school functions. Along with our junior year came the privilege to organize. We assumed our new prerogatives with enthusiasm and zeal. We chose jack Forbes, Mary Smith, and Edgar Pierson from our ranks as president, vice-president, and secretary, respectively. Under their guidance we gave our first dance with the high juniors. The affair was a great success. The next term we gave another in conjunction with the low juniors. We elected as our class olficers this year: George McDaniel, president, Virginia De Camp, vice-president, and john Saunders, secretary. ln our low senior year we were guided in our many activities by jack Gough, Ruth Kibbee. and Raymond Batz. By this time our class was frequently referred to as a most dependable class. We entered the fall term of '26 with an ambition to make it a record. To help us do this, we elected Elmer Anfrnson, president, Ruth Kibbee, vice-president, and George McDaniel, secretary. Most of the student body officers were already being held by our classmates. Our Senior Day fell on December second and was a day of continued pleasure and entertainment. As the term drew to a close, we realized with sorrow the separation that was inevitable. It meant the breaking of fond ties, the parting of friends, true and tried. Bearing records of achievements of which we may be proud we pass on leaving to the class of tomorrow this message: I To you-we toss the torch, Be yours to keep it high. 'JAMES TIPPETT. ll16Jl
