SENIORS We, the class of 1937, entered Lincoln High School one hundred and twenty-five strong. By successfully hiding our “Timidity” and entering our students in every pos- sible field, we soon lived down the title of “Green Freshmen”. Charles Pin- ney was elected the out- standing boy and Harriett Haddock the outstanding girl. Margaret Morris and Geraldine Myers won first and second places, re- spectively, in the County Latin Contest. Our numbers had di- minished by the time we were sophomores but this had no effect on our spirits. We did not sink into “Sophomore Sluggish- ness” but kept putting more members into activities. Charles Pinney was again elected the outstanding boy and Beatrice Steiner the outstand- ing girl. Geraldine Myers won first place in the County Latin Contest. Louise Thompson was the champion speller of the school. Our junior year was one of our happiest years. The most outstand- ing event for us was the giving of the Junior-Senior Prom. Artificial snow and aurora borealis effects were used to carry out an Arctic theme. In preparation for this we initiated the idea of Tea Dances after school. Charles Pinney was elected editor of Ye Pilgrim in his junior year. He was the first junior ever to hold the position. Charles Nelson and Lowell Peterson, our class president, went to the National Music Con- test. Louise Thompson won the spelling contest again. And so at last after three happy and eventful years we are seniors enjoying to the fullest our last days in Lincoln High School.
