A11 in all, 28 members of our class were beginning school careers in the area schools that send their pupils to N.L.IrI.S. Others joined our class as we have noted and togeth- er we make up the inimitable Class of 1955. As a class, we are looking forward to our Baccalaureate Services on Sunday, May 22, and our Commencement Exercises on Thursday, May 26. Rev. Lawrence Crawford and Rev. Harold Allem will collaborate in our Baccalaureate Services and Dr. Glenn L. Clay- ton is to be our commencement speaker. 0 CLASS PROPHECY At the 1975 Alumni Banquet of good old N.L.l'l.S., the Historian of the Class of 1955 reported that the graduates of that year are now engaged in the following pursuits of life: Two of the '55 graduates have migrated to Norwalk-at the largest bank, serving as chairman of the board, is Patty Parker and over at the Court House is Marolyn Pye, sec- retary for the County Commissioners.
