'LE 10- lass Any kind of history varies with age. The older it is the more details are for- gotten. Instead there is a certain per- spective that is always missing when we try to examine the history of today. So it was with recollecting the history of the classfof 1938. Events of the first couple of years had been forgotten -perhaps forever-and in their place were feel- ings. 'Where necessary, the records were consulted to get the names of officers and things like that, but, for the most part, what follows are those things that are remembered: those things that stood out in the four years the class of 1938 spent at Lewis High. The class that arrived from Lincoln into Lewis High School in 1934 were promptly shipped off to four or five differ- ent home rooms. These particular Fresh- men were not very different from any of the others through the ages. They acclimated themselves as well as pos- sible and made no important contribu- tions to Lewis High. Their class functions were limited to electing officers and at- tending the Freshman reception. The officers were as follows: President, William Neal: Vice-President, Marion McGar: Secretary, john Folcik: Treas- urer, Lawrence Mucci. That class of 1938 passed their Freshman year as best they could trying to keep themselves out of the limelight. In june they received their first dose of finals and left for the vacation. That September the class of 1938 re- turned to find themselves taken for granted. They were not old-time Seniors, Wonderful juniors or Brand-new Fresh- men. They were just plain Sophomores. So, of course, they tried to make up for this anonymity. They paid more atten- tion to their officers: to wit: Catherine Cook, President: Arthur Ferrucci, Secre- tary: Florence Ingelido, Treasurer: Miss Shorey, Adviser. This particular class iszfo ry had always wondered why there was a Freshman Reception every year. Now they found out that it was to show off, even to Freshmen. They did: November l-5. But the class as a whole did nothing much that we can remember, this year either. Life went sweetly by and left them nothing much but work. So, again, when june and Exams were over and done with they were not so terribly dis- appointed. However, that September while trudg- ing up old Academy Hill the glorious Class of 38 suddenly realized that they were somebody. Gosh, that was a won- derful feeling. Why, the new Freshmen and Sophomores were looking at them. Inside they found that they occupied only two rooms. Everybody knew every- body else and it was easier to work to- gether as a class. Officers were elected as follows: President, john Folcik: Vice- President, Arthur Ferrucci: Secretory, Catherine Cook: Treasurer, Martha Owens: Adviser, Mr. john Rathbun. Then there was the junior Recital. The performers all showed that they had put a lot of work in on it and it must have been a very difficult job for the judges. Those chosen were Lawrence Mucci and Bette Dudzik. Each received 55.00. Then the junior Prom. This was probably the most important event to date in the history of the Class of 38. After that there was just a little time before vaca- tion and then-Seniors. Every year before this everybody had looked forward to summer vacation. Now, though, they suddenly realized that there would be no more Lewis High School for them after this year. They actually began to hope this year would not go quite so fast. Alas! This year passed with more speed than the China Clipper. Activities came thick and fast. lt is very easy to remember them. At the first class meeting, presided over by Y Page Eleven
